Chris Rock has established himself as a major comic force for over a decade. Returning frequently to his stand-up roots, Rock is also hoping that change comes to America come election day.
Returning to movie screens in the new Madagascar sequel, Rock, who rarely does interviews with the priont media, chatted to Paul Fischer about comedy, acting and politics:
Question: What was the most important thing about doing this second movie?
Rock: It was getting back with Ben. We had fallen out and I just thought …
Question: Is he as good as they say?
Rock: He's better than they say.
Question: Do you censor yourself when you're doing it?
Rock: It is weird because I don't really curse that much off stage. I throw a couple out there from time to time, but when I'm offstage I don't – yeah it's weird. When I get up there it's "f**ck, f**ck, f**ck, f**ck, f**ck." It is kind of what the people want though.
Question: They expect that from you.
Rock: Yeah, it is a weird thing. It is not my "thing." I try to write some jokes in between the "f**ck, f**ck, f**cks." Sometimes my daughters are at gymnastics and people are commenting on how I'm not cursing. Like I would be cursing at gymnastics. "So what's up mother f**cker?" Like that's how they expect me to be.
Question: Now on Madagascar, you had one day in the studio working with Ben. How was your one day together? How freeing was that?
Rock: It felt different. He's a funny guy. Ben's funny. We are the same age and we have a lot of similarities in our lives so it wasn't this big thing having to overcome. It wasn't like two guys having to be overly polite to each other.
Question: You all had back stories this time. Did you like this turn in the script that we got to know you more as individuals?
Rock: I think this is a better movie than the first one. We know the characters and now its let's make a great story. The first one felt like the pilot and sometimes the pilot is clunky because you've got to get all these people in and all this information. Now we are just doing episodes.
Question: Jada mentioned the third one might be in India. What do you think?
Rock: India, the Bollywood version of "Move It, Move It."
Question: Do you want to direct anything soon?
Rock: I'm trying to get through this year without doing it, but you never know.
Question: Can you talk about what you are going to do on Nov. 5 if Obama wins.
Rock: If he wins – you are always going to make fun of the president no matter what. You are a comedian, like "Oh black brother, I can't tell jokes about this guy." I loved Bill Clinton and I love Bill Clinton to this day, but when he slipped I was right there.
Question: If Obama slips would you take him out?
Rock: I'll take him out [laughs].
Question: How optimistic are you about the election?
Rock: I wouldn't be shocked if you we don't know who the president is the night of the election. I wouldn't be shocked.
Question: You recently had a very good special on HBO with some very interesting editing choices between two different performances. How did that come about?
Rock: It was actually Rick Rubin's idea. He called me up one day, paged me actually, and said "you should do your special in three or four countries and cut them as one." That was it. I kind of thought it was crazy the first time I read it and then about three weeks later it was getting to that point that HBO was like "Want to do a special?" and I needed something to motivate me, because just doing it isn't enough motivation. So it was like what could be different? Stand up can get so boring, we've seen the guy in front of the camera, the guy in front of the screen, whatever. I just needed a chance to fail, something to excite me and that idea definitely excited me.
Question: Why return to stand up? Is it because that's where your roots are?
Rock: It is because that's what I do, if I was an actor in the theater I'm sure I would return to that from time to time. I'm a stand up comedian and the other things I get to do because I'm a stand up comedian. I just like doing it.
Question: Has your sense of humor changed as you've gotten older and now have a family?
Rock: I don't know. I've changed. I try to take breaks in between so I don't – I never want to be one of those guys who is always doing gigs, there is a staleness to that. Like you're in Vegas every week and you know the guy's going to be there. I try to take breaks. I haven't don it in – Zara was – my wife was pregnant with Zara so I hadn't done it in four years. It is almost like I got all the jokes I could out of that guy. Let me go become another guy and then I will tell some more jokes.
Question: Was it a different process for you knowing you were going to be taping it like this – were you onstage thinking, "F**ck I didn't say it the same way"?
Rock: No, it was weird. Early on in the tour it was like, "Wow, people laugh at the same things in every country." I couldn't believe it. Lightening struck. Everything worked out.

- Arthritis Treatment
- Rebuilds Joints
- Anti-inflammatory

- Natural
Technyflex® also helps reduce the symptoms of musculo skeletal conditions, hip dysplasia, and elbow dysplasia. It is also effective in the treatment of injured and sore joints.
Proven Safe and Natural:

Technyflex® is not a synthetic product/drug and has no known adverse side effects. This product can be taken in conjunction with other medications, but discuss with your Vet if your pet has an allergy to other products or shellfish. It is advisable not to administer in pregnancy.
The effectiveness of the product is due to its ingestion qualities. Technyflex® is not processed from sea crustaceans or ground down shellfish, i.e. crab shell or shark cartilage; making our product easier to digest ensuring results to the user faster.

Safe accredited factory, complying with GMP, EU and USFDA standards.
Signs of Arthritis and sore joints:
- Uncomfortable to get up from a lay down position
- 'Jerky' movements
- Stiffness
- Reduced playful behaviour
- Lagging behind or limping when walking
You and your dog don't have to accept these conditions of joint discomfort or arthritis – it's a condition associated with ageing, but it doesn't have to be that way! Technyflex Canine is quality green-lipped mussel for dogs.
Treating your pet with Technyflex®, a high quality joint supplement, will assist in many ways. Administering prior to onset of these conditions is also recommended for increased mobility and as prevention for ageing joints. "Prevention is better than cure."

- Gastric acid secretion, gastrointestinal motility
- Renal blood flow and sodium excretion
- Bronchoconstriction/bronchodilation
- Regulation of neurotransmission and neuromuscular activity
Rebuilds Joints:
A key component in rebuilding cartilage and connective tissues, are glucosamine's and GAGs (glycosaminoglycans/ mucopolysaccharides). GAGs consist of precursors such as glycosaminoglycans and chondroitin suflates which provide the necessary building blocks to rebuild cartilage and connective tissues.
GAGs also contribute to the viscosity formation of synovial fluid, which are well known for their lubrication qualities of the joint. These characteristics (GAGs) also offer protection from free radicals and provides nourishment of the joint.
High Nutritional Benefits:
- 100% Enriched NHNZ™ Green lipped Mussel (Perna canaliculus)
- Only mussel meat is used, not shell
- High in omega 3: total 36.3mg (EPA 17.7mg, DHA 10.9mg, ETA 2mg, ALA 4.2mg)
- GAGs glycosaminoglycans/mucopolysaccharides
- Minerals & Vitamins
- A natural whole food
These nutrients exist naturally in an Embryonic form providing the body with many physiological and biologic benefits that are easily digested. They provide your pet with a synergistic approach for complete joint integrity and well being.

Creating Tomorrow: filling the needs void
Sep 04, 2019 | By Carla Buzasi
Jan 26, 2017
It's frightfully cold outside right now, in London, anyway (I can't speak for the rest of the world I'm afraid). In fact it's so cold here that just last week I managed to slip on a sneaky bit of black ice and fall spread-eagle on the pavement in an oh so graceful manner. (I'm still paying for that – my hip currently feels like the hip of my 98-year-old Grandma.)
Despite this incessant chill, however, I recently opted to take part in a spot of full body Cryotherapy by 111Cryo. A new beauty treatment at London's Harvey Nichols, it's inspired by rugby players' penchant for jumping into a bath of ice to help with those post match aches and pains, and is hardly the first thing that springs to mind when the world is making you shiver.
Despite this clear conflict of ideals, I was too intrigued by the supposed beauty benefits it offers to pass up the chance to try it out. And how cold could -90ºC really be? I'm warm blooded after all. I got hot in Iceland.
Very it turns out. And by very, I mean I almost had a panic attack upon entering the chilled glass chamber – a little box* you're steered towards clad in nothing more than underwear, gloves, socks and snow shoes and placed in for exactly three minutes until you can escape.
Once I got past the initial shock, however, and had a little jig to the Beyonce that was blaring through the speakers, the temperature became much more bearable, and although I could feel my eyelashes and nostrils slowly freezing over – a normal occurrence I promise – I could see the clock on the wall slowly ticking towards its end and the cold didn't feel so cold anymore.
In fact it was almost worth it, for the benefits of this extreme treatment far outweigh the 180 second ordeal. Renowned for helping with inflamed joints and muscles – a fitness junkies' heaven as the blast of coldness will speed up recovery time – it's also a gem for both the skin and weight loss.
For the latter, they say that the body kick-starts itself into a post-treatment warm up process, spurring on the metabolism and helping you lose up to 800 calories in the mere hours afterwards. If you're as averse to the gym as I am then this will be music to your ears – and allows for a guilt free splurge, no?
For the skin, it's all about that coveted youthful glow. Aiding the skin's natural recovery system, the freezing temperatures help tighten the pores and resurface the complexion, stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers for a firmer appearance. You'll emerge with a glow akin to the euphoria of first love – fresh, flushed and invigorated – ready for anything, impervious to all.
If you're considering taking a stab at this line of treatments – a series of five or 10 sessions is advised as benefits ware off pretty quickly – then here's five pointers to help you prepare. It's a worthy cause, but one that really should be psyched up to. Trust me.

On Friday 27 April in 1739, George Whitefield wasn't welcomed at St Mary's, so he preached in the churchyard instead. He is recorded as saying, "It is a poor sermon that gives no offence; that neither makes the hearer displeased with himself nor with the preacher."
This Sunday, we'll be reading about the ministry of another preacher whose inspired words stirred thousands and aroused a controversy. Peter, the fisherman turned evangelist, was called to account by the authorities in Jerusalem.

I grew up with Jack LaLanne. I used to watch him, his wife Elaine (yes, Elaine LaLanne), and his german shepherd Happy every morning on TV. Jack taught me a lot of things about life — especially to stay positive all the time.
Why be like Jack? You might know him from his juicer — but he was so much more.
1. Make a bold change.
At 15, he was a wreck — sickly, skinny, and eating all the wrong foods. He realized it was a dead end and radically changed his diet, behavior and focus.
2. Break the mold.
Up until Jack LaLanne, gyms were for men who wanted to box or wrestle. Jack opened the prototype for the fitness spas to come — a gym, juice bar and health food store.
3. Keep true to your vision (and yourself).
Jack said, "People thought I was a charlatan and a nut. The doctors were against me — they said that working out with weights would give people heart attacks and they would lose their sex drive."
4. Think BIG.
Jack then took his idea national — "The Jack LaLanne Show" made its debut in 1951 as a local program in the San Francisco area, then went nationwide on daytime television in 1959.
5. Speak to your audience — all the time.
"My show was so personal, I made it feel like you and I were the only ones there. And I'd say: 'Boys and girls, come here. Uncle Jack wants to tell you something. You go get Mother or Daddy, Grandmother, Grandfather, whoever is in the house. You go get them, and you make sure they exercise with me.' "
6. Keep it simple.
Most of his exercises on TV were done with a chair or broomstick.
7. Keep fresh with new ideas and offerings.
He invented the forerunners of modern exercise machines like leg-extension and pulley devices. He marketed a Power Juicer to blend raw vegetables and fruits and a Glamour Stretcher cord, and he sold exercise videos and fitness books.
8. Know when to get out.
Expanding on his television popularity, he opened dozens of fitness studios under his name, later licensing them to Bally.
9. Be a showoff.
At 60 he swam from Alcatraz Island to Fisherman's Wharf handcuffed, shackled and towing a 1,000-pound boat. At 70, handcuffed and shackled again, he towed 70 boats, carrying a total of 70 people, a mile and a half through Long Beach Harbor.
10. Walk the talk.
He ate two meals a day and shunned snacks. Breakfast, following his morning workout, usually included several hard-boiled egg whites, a cup of broth, oatmeal with soy milk and seasonal fruit. For dinner, a salad with raw vegetables and egg whites along with fish — often salmon — and a mixture of red and white wine. He never drank coffee.
11. Stay positive — all the time.
He brimmed with optimism and restated a host of aphorisms for an active and fit life. "I can't die," he most famously liked to say. "It would ruin my image."
Jack passed away a few years ago at a ripe old age of 96. He brought a lot of energy, motivation and happiness to millions of people. I hope someday, I can do that too.

Copies can be downloaded here http://bit.ly/ibotkP and are also be available on Beatport, iTunes, Amazon, Juno and Addictech http://bit.ly/iiz9V2. ------------------------------------------------------------ Hi The tracks on here represent a mix of my ambient, electro-acoustic, experimental, soundscaping and electronic works. The music is created on a variety of hardware and software synthesizers using Ableton Live for recording. Field recorded sounds are frequently added to the mix and much of the sound is heavily processed with an array of effects. The majority of the tracks are fairly ambient in nature and explore experimental soundscapes, but occasionally the urge to create something more beat driven, rhythmic and downright noisy takes over! The music is inspired by the random daily events that life throws at you, landscapes, environment, atmosphere, astronomy, geology, past cultures, or just the indefinable need to make music. I am always interested in collaborative projects with other musicians, sound artists, female vocalists and any poetry writers who would like to vocalise their works over an ambient or experimental music background, so do get in contact if you like what you hear.

This is a guest post from Michael Meechin, Assistant Principal at a large with Fulton County Schools in Atlanta, Georgia. If you are interested in contributing to the Edmodo Blog, please complete this form.
Headed to FETC 2013? FETC is one of the biggest weeks in edtech, so get ready for keynotes, concurrent sessions, workshops, and of course, social media. Presenters and attendees attend FETC both physically and digitally.
What does your digital presence look like? Here are a few ways to build it out at FETC:
Use #FETC
I am reminded of John Kuglin's pre-keynote address at FETC 2012, where he stated; " Educators today must have a digital presence." With so many ways to collaborate and learn online – the web has become one of the most efficient (and cost-effective) forums for professional development. You can connect with the conversation about everything FETC 2013 by utilizing their official hashtag – #FETC on Twitter.
Attend Sessions on Creating a Digital Presence
Here are three sessions that I think will help you create, build, or expand upon your digital presence:
- CS9295 – Google+ Hangouts: A Great Instructional and PD Tool (Randy Damewood)
- CS6255 – Blow The Doors Off Your Classroom! Start A Video PLC (Ryan Kinser)
- CS3290 – Using Pinterest to Build a Personal Learning Network (Kathy Parker-Jones with Lauren Davis)
Be Present For Your Students
Maintaining an educational digital presence helps your students and their parents. With the free resources that are available today – the classroom teacher or school administrator can extend the classroom and school to the web.
For many of our students, learning would continue after the school day ends if we maintain a digital presence. Our students are digital natives, and are immersed in technology from they time they wake until the time they go to bed. Creating a digital presence us as easy as checking out edtechs such as, Edmodo, Twitter, Classroom Dojo and many more.
If you are headed to FETC, don't forget to connect during and after the conference using Edmodo.
About the Author
Michael Meechin is a proud product of the public education system. Mike founded Innovate Education to provide stripped down PD for educators – providing them with content that they can put into practice the next day.
Mike is an Assistant Principal at a large, urban high school with the Fulton County Schools in Atlanta, Georgia. He is present digitally on Twitter (@innovateed), his blog Transparent Curriculum, and is a contributor at the Coop Catalyst.

CENSUS – Chlorinated Benzenes
Detect and quantify bacteria responsible for biodegradation of Chlorinated Benzenes
Chlorinated benzenes are an important class of industrial solvents and chemical intermediates in the productions of drugs, dyes, herbicides and insecticides. The physical-chemical properties of chlorinated benzenes as well as susceptibility to biodegradation are functions of their degree of chlorination and the positions of chlorine substituents.
In general, chlorobenzenes with four or less chlorine groups are susceptible to aerobic biodegradation even serving as growth supporting substrates.
Under anaerobic conditions, reductive dechlorination of higher chlorinated benzenes including hexachlorobenzene (HCB), pentachlorobenzene (PeCB), tetrachlorobenzene (TeCB) isomers, and trichlorobenzene (TCB) isomers by halorespiring bacteria has been well documented (Field and Sierra-Alvarez 2008).
CENSUS Targets for Reductive Dechlorination

YOKOSUKA: Seven US sailors were missing and a skipper injured after their Navy destroyer collided with a container ship off the coast of Japan early Saturday, with the badly damaged US vessel partially flooded.
Aerial television footage showed one sailor lying on a stretcher and a rescuer being pulled up to a helicopter that was hovering above the USS Fitzgerald, its right side partially crushed.
Three sailors were injured in the pre-dawn collision, including the guided missile destroyer's commanding officer Bryce Benson.
"Two sailors, in addition to the commanding officer, have been medically evacuated from USS Fitzgerald to US Naval Hospital Yokosuka for lacerations and bruises," the navy said.
"There are seven sailors unaccounted for; the ship and the Japanese Coast Guard continues to search for them."
The accident between the Fitzgerald and Philippine-flagged ACX Crystal happened around 2:30 am (1730 GMT Friday) off the coast off the Izu peninsula southwest of Tokyo, the US Navy and Japan's coastguard said.
The area is a busy shipping channel near major container ports in Yokohoma and Tokyo.
"The volume of ships is heavy in this area and there have been accidents before," coastguard official Yutaka Saito told Japan's public broadcaster NHK.
It was not immediately clear what caused the collision, but NHK said the massive 222-metre (730 foot) container ship made a sharp turn around the time of the accident.
Japan's coastguard, which is probing the incident, has sent five vessels, two planes and a team of specially trained rescue personnel to help in the search for the missing crew, a spokesman said.
The USS Dewey and two Navy tugboats were helping out in the search and rescue, the US military said, while Japan's Self-Defence Forces also joined the operation, sending three ships and several aircraft.
'So worried'
The 154-metre Fitzgerald — which was commissioned in 1995 and was deployed in the Iraq war in 2003 — is based in Yokosuka and operates in the Pacific and the Sea of Japan (East Sea).
The accident happened 56 nautical miles (104 kilometres) southwest of Yokosuka, the navy said.
"My daughter is on the Fitzgerald," a parent wrote on the 7th Fleet's Facebook page.
"So worried. Just need to hear she is ok. Thinking of all of our sailors and their families!!"
US chief of naval operations Admiral John Richardson said in a statement: "As more information is learned we will be sure to share it with the Fitzgerald families and when appropriate the public.
"All of our thoughts and concerns are with the Fitzgerald crew and their families."
Video by Japan's public broadcaster NHK showed heavy damage to the right side of the Fitzgerald just ahead of the control tower, and that the ship had taken on water.
An orange hose was visible on the ship's deck, with many crew members seen checking the damage.
The destroyer, piloted by two tugboats, was sailing to Yokosuka.
"The USS Fitzgerald suffered damage on her starboard side above and below the waterline. The collision resulted in some flooding," the Navy said.
The Fitzgerald was still under its own power "although her propulsion was limited", the navy said. It is not in danger of sinking and is headed back to port on its own power.
The footage meanwhile showed relatively light damage to the ACX Crystal.
Twenty crew members were aboard the container and none was injured, another Japanese coastguard spokesman said, adding that the vessel was separately sailing back to a Tokyo port.
"We are now investigating the case as further details, including the weather conditions at the time, are not available," the spokesman said.
The ACX Crystal is a commercial container ship that, according to marine tracking websites, was on its way to Tokyo.
The ship carries a Philippine flag but is listed as owned by Japanese shipping giant NYK Line.

hi, is it safe to drink this while breastfeeding?
Great suggestions! I've been on my weight loss journey for a few months now, actually read a personal review about a workout guide and it seemed like a solid plan. I couldn't have been more excited about the results, I am now 30 pounds lighter than when I first started. This site was very helpful to me — if you want to check it out yourself you can read it here

More and more people in the UK are now following a gluten free diet, for various medical or health reasons.
Party season can be a bit of a nightmare if you are gluten free, as many canapés and desserts often contain gluten. Too many glasses of fizz and not enough to eat equals feeling extra rough the next morning!
There are loads of great gluten free canapes and party dishes available in shops this year, so get with the spirit of Christmas and go gluten free with your party to make your gluten free guests feel extra welcome. Many of these are so good, no-one else will ever know they are gluten free.
Marks & Spencer Mini Chicken Kievs
How to make them most of it: These garlicky, naturally gluten free bites are fantastic and totally delicious. Serve them hot from the oven on a pretty Christmas platter, with sauces for dipping. There are also some other brilliant gluten free options in the M&S range (including some gluten free vegetarian options), so it is worth checking out.
Lemon Meringue Yule Log
How to make them most of it: A guaranteed show-stopper centrepiece that is gluten free and a refreshing change from the usual heavy Christmas puds. Place in the centre of your party table, sit back and enjoy the compliments!
Make this one yourself using my gluten free recipe
Asda Free From Christmas Cupcakes
How to make them most of it: Asda have a huge range of gluten free this year, with some really innovative products across their Extra Special and regular ranges. I loved the look of these Christmas-themed cupcakes, which are perfect if you don't have time for home baking.
There are also a number of full-sized gluten free desserts in their range. I am already drooling over their chocolate and salted caramel naked layer gateau (check the free from freezer section for that one).
Tesco and Sainsburys Gluten Free Party Food Ranges
How to make them most of it: Not quite the same quality as the M&S range, but you get more bang for your buck with the Tesco and Sainsburys gluten free party food ranges. Both supermarkets have a very good selection this year. At Tesco you can find a huge range, including crispy cheese and garlic stars, mushroom arancini, pigs in blankets and cream cheese jalepenos.
As for Sainsburys, their range includes mini hash brown frittatas, chorizo wrapped in pancetta, mini crumbed cheese bites and British pork belly squares. Some items in both ranges are labelled gluten free on the front, others are not though so it is always worth having a peek at the ingredients to make new gluten free discoveries.
Buy from the Sainsburys range now

A look behind where trends stem from.
Third Trend: The disengaged youth
With costs of education rising, students now must look at the benefits of attending university, unlike years ago where fashion students wanted to smash the system and push boundaries. Now it's all about becoming successful and making money. So for opinions to count, social media is on the rise, with bloggers getting younger for their voice to heard.
This subtle approach can be seen in SS14 trends, fabrics are sheer, floaty and flimsy and volume will be created by layering.

"Johanny engaged the participants in conversations during his presentations, which I think is very useful. I came into the class a few times to observe the training, and I learned useful things each time. This almost makes me think that I should have some of the other folks attend this class at your location (for individuals performing failure analysis of items). They could learn a lot about what to look for." Danny
"I wanted to pass on what a delight it was to receive my training in MD. Kevin Boblits is an extremely professional instructor whose depth of knowledge and kind demeanor are exceptional. He makes you feel comfortable and has a depth of knowledge that is a credit to your organization." Susan S., NASA
"The class was great and a great refresher for us. The teacher and classroom was very professional and we look forward to booking more classes in the future." Ted O., US Army
"I really enjoyed the 7711 training. Angel put me at ease immediately. He is a great instructor and is extremely knowledgeable, patient and encouraging. Not to mention, he is also very personable and that made the course more fun. With what I learned I feel confident that I can tackle any through-hole or surface mount rework or repair assignment that may come my way." Robert
"Thank you for an outstanding training session this week. I have heard nothing but positive comments on the training and your ability to keep them interested and engaged. I hope we can schedule more of these on hand training courses with Circuit Technology in the future." Brandon, 3 Phoenix, Inc.
"I would have to say the overall format of the presentation was the main strength of the course. The layout of the theory, seeing it performed by the instructor, and the hands-on was most educational. Each presentation complemented the other in a way that gave an overall better understanding." James W.
"I have been to several different IPC training sites for IPC-A-610 and J-STD CIT courses. Circuit Technology by far surpasses them all! They have expert Instructors, unlimited resources for training material, and best of all, their recent investment in new training equipment and a new training facility exceeds the standards, placing them above everyone else."

Inspiration: Fishing, Aliens & Dubstep Robots
Today I want to share three videos I discovered over the last couple of month which I think are inspirational, clever and nice to look at.
"Ending Overfishing" has not only an important message but also a quite unique look. I have seen a similar style before but the way they used low poly models with shiny and reflective materials and a nice and subtle animation style makes it stand out and fun to watch.
"In search of humans" is a small little teaser trailer for a movie I definitely want to see. The modelling and the compositing are excellent. Check out OddBall Animation vimeo page for more videos.
"Machine Gun" takes a dubstep track and Transformers footage and creates a really well edited movie. Keith Carunida just nailed the timing, feeling and detail. You can tell that it was a lot of work to put this piece together but it's worth it. My favourite part is at 1:30. Just brilliant.

This week in the Australian parliament Senator Ludlum of the Greens raised the question of whether a tweet from president Trump could send us into war with our biggest trading partner China. While the question seems at first absurd and possibly even a satire, it's not. It's a very serious question that deserves debate within Australia as it could have very severe consequences to not only our Australian economy but every Australian's future.
The USA is in a very politically unstable position at the moment with many US citizens unhappy with some of the new president's seemingly impulsive executive orders. One such order is the banning Muslims from seven countries from entering the USA without asking advice from his government departments as to what sort of problems this might cause to US citizen's traveling abroad or anyone travelling to the USA for business or even a holiday.
This presidential order and tweets caused chaos at international airports and led to thousands of protesters at airports all over the USA. Even some of the international governments friendly to the USA criticised this action and some of the Muslim majority governments whose citizens were banned have reciprocated by banning US citizens. Fortunately for all the travelers affected, a US Federal Judge blocked the Presidents order until it could be examined in a court of law.
President Trump has also been condemned by environmentalists and scientists all around the world for his Global Warming denier stance stating that he will withdraw the USA from the Paris Climate Agreement. Most governments are cautiously waiting to see what happens before he is condemned. However, the Pope has criticised his decision and Irish ex-PM and UN delegate Mary Robinson stated that if he goes ahead with plans to withdraw, the USA will become a rogue state. China has also criticized his decision.
Since the USA is the second largest greenhouse gas emitter, this will make it extremely difficult if not impossible for the world to contain Global Warming below the 2C agreed by over 190 countries at the Paris Climate Agreement.
He has also taken action to eliminate the US Environmental Protection Agency, allowing USA corporations unrestricted ability to pollute US land, water and air. This would reverse 50 years of US environmental protection on an ideological whim.
These dangerously impulsive actions alone, broadcast to the people of the world by tweet, bypassing government, media and public scrutiny or debate, give the very strong impression that the USA has elected a very unstable President, one that cares nothing about the fact that his actions will have a large impact on the people of rest of the world.
There are also reports that President Trump might suffer from mental health problems. (here and here)
But those actions alone, while worrying to Australia are not the key problem. President Trump in both his election campaign and since his inauguration, has shown great antagonism towards both our biggest trading partner China and Iran, even threatening war with Iran and war with China.
Australia is considered one of the USA's strongest allies and we have a treaty with them called the ANZUS treaty, that is supposed call on the USA to protect us from any threat emanating from Asia although there is much doubt about whether it would.
That treaty was drawn up 1951 over post WW2 fears of Japan becoming aggressive again, but our relationship with Asia has changed dramatically over the period since then. The Asian countries in our region are considered good friends and among our biggest trading partners. This is not surprising as we live in the Asia geographical part of the world.
Successive Australian governments have automatically followed the USA into every war since WW2 without question. In his book "Dangerous Allies", Malcolm Fraser questioned whether we should become more independent and critically question whether it is in our best interest to follow US into every war.
He cited the war with Iraq that many people in the USA and UK now admit was an serious mistake or even a crime. Since then Australia has followed the USA into an undeclared war in Syria without asking questions that has threatened war with Russia.
The problem the Greens have highlighted is that Australia is unusual compared with most democratic countries, in that the Prime Minister can commit Australia to a war without ANY debate in the Australian parliament itself. This has been confirmed by fact checking. It is essentially undemocratic. Even the UK, the origin of the Australian parliamentary tradition, and the USA congress must debate whether to go to war before doing so.
So we are in the situation of having a very weak willed PM in Australia that can't even control the right wing pro war members of his own Liberal Party having the ability to send Australia to war on a US command or even a tweet from an unstable impulsive USA President pushing for war with Iran and China.
Australians are in deep trouble. As things stand we could be at war with China, our biggest trading partner NEXT WEEK. I hope not as it will likely lead to WW3.
The Greens have suggested that we adopt a law that forces a parliamentary debate into whether following the USA into a war with China is in Australia's best interest, BEFORE the Prime Minister can send us to war.
This same suggestion has been made in the parliament several times over the last two decades, but in the current situation with an unstable US President and a spineless Australian PM, it is now more critical than ever before.
I don't think anyone in Australia would agree that a US initiated war with China or Iran would be in Australia's best interests. It would destroy our economy and our friendship with our neighbours and undoubtedly start WW3.
Australia will LOSE LOSE LOSE in any US sponsored war in our Asian backyard.
Consequently, I think we should lobby the Australian government to agree to a law, that makes it mandatory to discuss all future military engagements in parliament, before the Prime Minister can simply announce we're going to war with anyone. It seems like common sense and dare I say it, real democracy.
What do you think?

Hi everyone. I think there must be a whole lot of you out there who have developed woodworking hand skills over time. Some of you may have only one or maybe just a few hand skills that you do really well and others might be well versed on the full range. My thought is that it would be fun and informative to have more blogs showing handskills.I certainly don't have much knowledge in this area, but I did do a blog on hand chopping mortises showing a method that works well for me.
I guess a lot of you are thinking that we see a lot of this stuff in FWW magazine. True, but there are lots of ways to do things, not just the FWW way. It seems to me that woodworkers are among some of the more inventive people around, so I suspect that there are plenty of interesting and surprising techniques out there that could be shared. If I can do it so can you!

I Decided to Become a Mom
I'm 27 years old, I am married for a year and 4 moths, I know my husband for 7 and a half years, and we decided that is time to have a baby. So, I'm not pregnant, yet, but I am getting there. I wanted to be sure that I can do it by myself before we started this. Emotionally preparing myself for this was a bit hard, I had to think like a single mom because the truth is I don't expect much help from anyone, so I will do all the hard work.
My mom, the single person who I would trust leaving my baby with, is at 350 km away, in my hometown, where she has a job.
My mother-in-law is taking care of her mother who had a stroke and she needs a little support from now and then, and they both live with us in another part of the house, and she is also not in good health, but to be short, I don't trust her. She is lazy and complaining all the time about not having time to cook, even if she sits all day, nothing else to do but playing Heroes at the computer. She has bad eyes so I just imagine her making the RIGHT formula for my baby in time.
My husband is a sweet, hard-working, man. He is working from home but he is very focused on the time he spends working because is even harder when you are your own boss. I can trust our child in his hands, but I don't think I could handle his complains about being tired so I would do it myself most of the time leaving the job of making money for our family in his hands. I have a little coffee shop in a small town, so I am my own boss too, but I will gladly leave the business for a while.
I don't know if I will be a good mom, I didn't want to answer that question before we decided to do it, because that is not the correct question, the good one is: Am I ready to try to be a mom? So to that the answer is yes, I am ready to try. I am scared and I'm expecting to be hard, tiring, chaotic, overwhelming but I'm sure I will not regret any moment of it and it will also be the most beautiful thing I will accomplish in my life.

Some call it a cryptocurrency - more on that in a future post. It is certainly a non-fiat currency.
The guys over at "CoinDesk: The voice of digit currency" have a nice article on their experience on Silk Road.
Silk Road for readers not yet familar with Bitcoins was a recently shutdown webiste that was accessed through the anonymous Tor network.
Once connected it was simple a site where goods and services were bought and sold using Bitcoins. Where is the harm in that you might ask?
Here is where the problems began given those very same products were class A drugs and other illicit goods. Estimates are that $1.2 billion's worth of transactions took place over the two years of the silk road's existence.
So far, so interesting but where is the economics. This is where it gets interesting. Those $1.2 billion worth of transactions went through using bitcoins - it had become a legitimate currency of exchange.
Of course since mankind first started trading many things have been used for money. Gold, silver, seashells and many other "rare" items.
Bitcoins are mined (a process I will blog about another time) and are limited in supply. Most importantly they are not backed by any government. They are not backed by gold (what is these days) and they are tradable and can be broken into smaller units. It has all the attributes of a currency and it works.
Silk Road was a big player and the shutdown caused a huge sell off of bitcoins (although they bounced back quickly). Early predictions were that Bitcoins were finished. Now the dust has settled other retailers that take Bitcoins continue to do so.
The FEDs own 26,000 of them ($137 per coin) - what will it spend them on?
However, the currency lives on.
John Law's post over on CoinDesk is worth reading.

Vacuum cleaners for ovens are very big and they contain chemicals that are not very good for our health. Did ever smell such a thing? So, it's better for you and your family health to clean your oven with eco friendly products.
This method to clean your oven is not only natural, it's completely effective. Most of the ingredients are probably already in you cupboards and, if not, they are very easy to find and also cheap. You'll need a cup of water, 10 drops of essential oil (lemon or orange are good), ½ cup of salt, 1 and ¼ cup of baking soda, ¼ cup of white vinegar and 2 teaspoons of liquid dishwashing detergent.
First mix the essential oils with water. This is a pre-treatment and should be sprayed on the oven door and walls, after it was preheated to 300 degrees.
Further, mix the salt with baking soda. Sprinkle this powder on the oven. Finally, mix the remaining ingredients (without vinegar and water) into a paste and spread the paste on oven walls, allowing it to stand overnight. Then mix water with vinegar in a spray bottle and spray the entire oven. Wipe down and rinse.
I think it's better now…
