Soros Exposed Plotting to Nationalize American Police
September 8, 2016 TLB Staff FREEDOM, GOVERNMENT 2
Billionaire statist George Soros has been helping Obama and globalist forces to federalize control over American police forces under the guise of pushing "criminal justice reform," hacked e-mails and documents from his shadowy Open Society "philanthropic" empire revealed. From funneling tens of millions to radical activist groups and race-mongers to building what leaked documents refer to as a "national movement" to "reform" law-enforcement and working with the White House to do it, Soros fingerprints can be found all over the growing anti-police chaos that has enveloped U.S. cities in recent years. The agenda is clear: stripping communities of self-government and imposing federal cops.
The Soros plot outlined in Open Society Foundation documents involves, among other elements, helping Obama impose his United Nations-backed "guidelines" and "standards" on American police departments — at least at first. Eventually, the goal is to impose a national police force on America accountable not to local communities, as has traditionally and constitutionally been the case for centuries, but to the increasingly lawless federal executive branch. The implications for freedom and self-government of transferring control over police to the White House are massive.
As The New American has been reporting for decades, the establishment's long-term goal is to centralize all coercive power in its own hands. A national police force — or at least federally controlled state and local police departments — are a crucial component of that agenda. While grassroots efforts and constitutional limitations on federal power have made the goal hard to achieve, the Obama administration has made more progress on nationalizing law-enforcement than any other president in U.S. history. Soros, widely ridiculed as "Dr. Evil" by critics, has helped in a major way.
Unsurprisingly, Soros minions celebrated Obama's efforts in the leaked documents, and sought to capitalize on and support them. In particular, the decision-makers of the billionaire's U.S. programs touted the 60 "recommendations" issued by the so-called President's Task Force on 21st Century Policing, a radical outfit created by an executive order from Obama. They call that effort "promising," and note that one of Soros' minions on his board even served on the task force. The report also noted that "a number of grantees" receiving Soros largess testified at the hearings.
Essentially, and unsurprisingly, Obama's "task force" outlined various strategies the federal government could use to usurp control over local police departments. Those strategies included, perhaps most infamously, recommendations that bribes ("federal grants") be used to trap local officials into obeying the White House by making sure the "grants" come with strings attached. Soros' agents lament the federal government's "limited authority to dictate reform at the local level," but nonetheless celebrate efforts to "ensure effective implementation" of Obama's radical agenda among local police agencies.
The plot involves getting local police departments and law-enforcement agencies to accept federal money for various purposes — usually not even very much money. Once they accept it, they would supposedly be bound by Obama's "guidelines" and "standards." The strategy is not new and was used earlier in the administration's tenure on education. The similarities led critics to blast the "ObamaCops" program, a reference to the extraordinarily unpopular Common Core, also known as "ObamaCore," an Obama-backed plot to nationalize education standards imposed with bribes and bludgeoning from the White House.
Other Obama police schemes touted by Soros' minions included the Policing Data Initiative, in which the feds would hand out taxpayer money to local police in exchange for submission to uniform federal data-gathering and -sharing standards. The document also celebrates the increasingly radicalized Justice Department's "pilot programs" to hijack control over police in six American cities. The plot involves developing federal guidance for local cops and deploying federal "experts" to do everything from "fight crime" and "build trust" to "reduce bias." Other cities have been bullied, threatened, and terrorized by the administration into submission using "consent decrees."
Operatives for Soros, a protegé of the powerful Rothschild banking dynasty, were only too happy to help. "We are gaining a better understanding of these efforts in order to determine how best USP [Soros foundations' U.S. Programs] can use this moment to create a national movement," the hacked document explained. "We have already had a set of preliminary conversations with about a dozen key stakeholders and will undertake a field scan to map the areas of work currently underway to advance police reform, including an assessment of the redundancies and gaps in work, and opportunities for collaboration. As we proceed, we will engage the funder network we helped to establish."
In other words, Soros, who has dumped tens of millions into fomenting riots, hate, and dangerous anti-police extremism, was seeking to build an AstroTurf (fake grassroots) "national movement" to support Obama's unconstitutional efforts to usurp control over Americans' local police departments. To that end, leaked documents show that Soros and his minions have been showering huge amounts of money on "Black Lives Matter" and other outfits with similar agendas — and then blatantly lying to the public about it when confronted.
The document also outlines a discussion on exploiting alleged "police abuse" to create first "local reform," and then see how and if that can be "leveraged into a national movement." Such a scheme will require "frank discussion" about the strengths and weaknesses of "the field of policing reform advocates" and "the possibilities on the national federal landscape for reform," the document says. "We are aiming to get board guidance on the direction a committed effort on our part might take."
The Soros minions also explain how the puppets receiving Soros money were being exploited to push stronger federal control over police. The radical Soros front groups were "pushing the Justice Department to use its existing authority [sic] to place conditions on the funding it provides to local police departments, requiring basic elements of good practice in exchange for federal funds," the document says, with "good practice" meaning whatever Soros and Obama — not local voters — want your police department to do. While lamenting that even a "progressive" attorney general has not done everything they want, Soros' agents boast that they are using their "key grantees" to keep up the pressure.
As if to confirm the thesis of an article published by The New American magazine in its September, 14, 2015 "Police Under Fire" Special Issue, the recently leaked document also outlines Soros' strategy to use "pressure from above and below" to achieve the extremist's objectives. For example, the report outlines an "Inside strategy" in which Soros minions seek to "better engage law enforcement and governmental leadership." This is also known as "lobbying," or pressure from above.
Then there is what the document calls the "Outside strategy" in which Soros showers money on fake grassroots efforts to create the appearance of public support for Soros' extremist anti-police, anti-liberty, anti-American agenda. "Another layer of grassroots and youth-oriented groups like Freedom Side, Ferguson Action, Black Lives Matter, and Million Hoodies Movement for Justice are also advocating for specific reforms," the document explained. Another Soros document shows Soros provided $650,000 to "invest in technical assistance and support for the groups at the core of the burgeoning #BlackLivesMatter movement." And that is just the tip of the iceberg. The Washington Times recently reported that more than $33 million in grants to the Black Lives Matter moverment comes from Soros' Open Society Foundations.
In addition to Soros and Obama, the UN has also joined the effort to fundamentally transform America by, among other schemes, nationalizing America's police departments. "The Civil Rights Division of the [U.S.] Department of Justice has provided oversight and recommendations for improvement of police services in a number of cities with consent decrees," the UN "Special Rapporteur" from Kenya said after a ludicrous UN "investigation" of the United States. "This is one of the most effective ways to reduce discrimination in law enforcement and it needs to be beefed up and increased to cover as many of the 18,000-plus local law enforcement jurisdictions."
Close Obama confidant and radical race hustler Al Sharpton, who was caught on film urging supporters to start "offing the pigs," has called for the same measures. Speaking last year amid establishment efforts to encourage a race war, Sharpton said the Justice Department should "take over policing in this country." However, the controversial figure, who owes millions in taxes but regularly visits the Obama White House, acknowledged that "we're going to have to fight states' rights."
Other revelations from the recently hacked documents show that Soros, like the UN and Obama, has been using his money to assault the constitutionally protected rights of Americans. Among other rights in Soros' crosshairs are gun rights, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, the right to self-government, and more. He has also been exposed recently trying to corrupt Christianity, buy support from Catholic bishops in the United States, promote abortion in Catholic countries, and flood the Western world with Islamic "refugees" from globalist-fueled wars in the Middle East.
Americans and their elected officials must resist the efforts of Soros and his globalist allies in the Obama administration to take over state and local police departments. That can be accomplished by supporting your local police, and keeping them independent from federal control. Of course, that means local officials must refuse to take federal bribes with strings attached. But American liberty and constitutional self-government may well depend on making sure that the out-of-control federal government is never able to hijack control of Americans' law-enforcement agencies.

George Soros is part of the 1% Global Elite. They meet in various places around the globe, and have been doing so for years, to implement and carry out their plan for World Domination, Depopulation and Control. He is right in there with Bill Gates, The Rockefellers, Kissinger, The Rothschilds… and on and on. Their programs are covered day after day here at TLB.

I wonder who Soros takes marching orders from. Someone must be telling him what to do. Who do you think it is ?

Here is a fun painting technique to use if you have extra time.
Tell your students they're going to paint a picture, but first they're going to paint the entire background with a solid color. The effect ends up similar to painting on colored paper, but brighter.
Our subject was a butterfly and flowers, but this technique can be used when painting any subject.
These samples were done on canvas, but heavy paper can be used instead.
Step 1: Paint the entire background a solid color, not blue.
Step 2: Paint the subject on top of the background color.
Step 3: Paint the sky blue around the subjects, but leave a bit of the background color showing through in border areas.
This is the example I showed the students. I explained how I painted orange background first, flowers&butterfly, and blue sky last and left some orange areas showing.
Painted light green background first.
Painted olive green background first.
Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, Italian, (1475 – 1564).
For this lesson we talked about Picasso's Blue and Rose Periods. Then we talked about color values.
The students were given old calendars w/ animals, chose an animal, then traced it onto white paper. In order to trace the pictures, students taped the calendar page up to the window to create a "lightbox" effect. This makes tracing much easier.
Students then chose either a blue or red palette for their animal. Working light to dark.
Lastly, the students painted a simple background.
After tracing their animals, students created light, medium and dark blue or red to be used for painting their animal.
If you like this lesson because of its emphasis on painting "values", check out my $6 downloadable PDF lesson on "The Great Wave". It comes with step by step intstructions, color picture samples, and a blue value chart to share with your students.
Step 1 - Students cut the perimeter squares off in order to leave a section with 9 squares, 3 across and 3 down.
Step 2 - Students followed drawing directions for King Tut using the 9 squares.
Step 3- Students were given examples of Egyptian hieroglyphs, then drew symbols on each of the 16 perimeter squares.
Step 4 - Students colored Tut with markers.
Step 5 - Students colored 8 perimeter squares with one color, and the other 8 perimeter squares with a different color.
Step 6 - Students cut squares apart and arranged them on 12" x 12" background paper.
Step 7 - Students glued down the squares.
Big thanks to students in Mrs. Venn's 6th grade class at Flamson Middle School, your Tut's are colorfabuful!

This is a genre that I don't normally read, and when Ivy approached me and asked if I would like to read it, I thought you have to get out of your comfort zone, where reading is concerned. And I always said that when I became a reviewer I would be honest without being nasty.
So its with deep regret that I have to say that I didn't enjoy the book, its nothing to do with the writing, its more to do with I'm still new to this genre.
For other readers who like this genre they will love it.
I'm so sorry Ivy that I bring you bad news rather than good news.
So in this instance I will have to give 1/5 stars.
I received a complementary copy from the author in return for a honest review.

Labor and delivery nursing is a specialty in obstetrics where nurses take care of pregnant patients during labor, obstetrical emergencies, and other obstetric conditions. The labor and delivery nurse provides care during the intrapartum period (labor and birth). A labor and delivery nurse provides support, medical care, and constant monitoring of the pregnant patient and her fetus throughout labor and birth. Labor and delivery nurses assist and educate patients with labor and delivery conditions. Labor and delivery nurses provide incredible patient support, critical nursing care, and comprehensive pregnancy and postpartum education.
Labor and delivery nurses typically work in hospital units, freestanding birth centers, or attend home births. However, they may also work in outpatient clinics or private practice offices. Labor and delivery nurses care for women of childbearing age and their newborn babies. Labor and delivery nurses work variable shifts depending on where they work. For example, office nurses usually work during the day, but nurses in hospital inpatient units maywork day, evening, or night shift. They may be required to work weekends and holidays, but will generally receive a higher rate for these shifts.
A labor and delivery nurse is skilled in caring for patients during labor and delivery issues. The labor and delivery nurse works closely with the patient, their family, and the obstetric team to ensure a smooth labor birth. These obstetric and intrapartum issues include conditions like preterm labor, premature rupture of membranes, placenta previa, placental abruption, and cord prolapse. Labor and delivery nurses are familiar with managing medications and IV drips for conditions like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, and hypertension.
They must be familiar with usual chronic and acute conditions but also be aware of the impact these disorders have on the childbearing woman. Hence, labor and delivery nurses must be familiar with a considerable range of knowledge regarding pregnancy compatibility with medications and obstetric conditions. Labor and delivery nurses assist with obstetric surgeries like cesarean section and dilation and curettage. They also assist with procedures like artificial rupture of membranes, internal fetal monitoring, and external cephalic version.
Labor and delivery nurses educate patients and their family about what to expect during the labor and birth period. Labor and delivery nurses are knowledgeable about obstetric conditions and are able to counsel patients on the risks and complications of treatment. Labor and delivery nurses assist obstetricians with outpatient and inpatient procedures, as well as care for patients preoperatively and postoperatively. Obstetric nurses are compassionate, skilled, and perceptive.
You must first obtain a nursing degree from an accredited nursing program to become a labor and delivery nurse. Labor and delivery nurses usually Registered Nurses. In order to become a Registered Nurse, you can attend an Associate Degree program (two years) or pursues a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (four years). After graduating from nursing school, you must take the NCLEX-RN exam to become licensed as a nurse. The last step is to apply to the Board of Nursing in your state to become an RN. Once school is over, continuing education and obstetric training at your facility will keep your labor and delivery nursing education fresh.
When labor and delivery nurses choose to pursue certification, it displays their specialized knowledge and experience in their specialty. Labor and delivery nurses must have the appropriate experience before they can take the Obstetric Nurse Certification Examination to become a Registered Nurse, Certified in Obstetrics (RNC-OB), which is given by the National Certification Corporation. When a nurse is an RNC-OB, they have an expert level of inpatient obstetrics nursing competence and skill.
A minimum of 2000 clinical practice hours in labor and delivery nursing practice direct patient care, education, administration, or research).
Employment in the specialty in the last 24 months.
The exam is a 175 question multiple-choice examination that covers a wide variety of labor and delivery nursing topics like labor and birth, fetal assessment, obstetric complications, maternal factors, professional issues, and postpartum and newborn care. You have three hours to finish your exam to achieve certification. Labor and delivery nurse certification is valid for three years and you can recertify by taking the certification exam again or taking 45 hours of continuing education.
Alabor and delivery nurse performs important responsibilities in caring for the pregnant women. Your duties as a labor and delivery nurse will vary basedon your facility, your patient population, and where you live.
Triage potential laboring patients, preterm labor patients, patients who have ruptured their membranes (broken their water), and identify obstetric emergencies.
Admit the pregnant patient to the labor and delivery unit, perform an admission assessment, and develop a nursing plan of care.
Insert intravenous (IV) catheter and initiate and maintain IV fluids and medications.
Provide labor support and emotional support during and after traumatic incidents like miscarriage, stillbirth, and newborn resuscitation.
Determine dilation, effacement, and fetal station from vaginal exams.
Monitor, review, and report vital signs related to stage and phase of labor and other obstetrical considerations.
Assist the physician in the birth of a baby, preparing for an obstetrical emergency, and assessing vital signs to ensure postpartum stabilization.
Circulate in the operating room for cesarean section, providing assistance to the surgical team and providing reassurance to the patient.

The average salary for a Labor and Delivery Registered Nurse is $65,470 annually. Salaries for labor and delivery nurses will vary related to your job description, your nursing experience, and your geographical location. As predicted by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the career outlook for Registered Nurses is an increase of 19% in the next 10 years.


Pokémon VS (Japanese: ポケモンカード★VS Pokémon Card VS) is a Japanese-only release of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. It was considered an extension of the Gym Heroes and Gym Challenge expansions, as it featured the Johto Gym Leaders and Elite Four from Pokémon Gold and Silver, along with updated cards (and artwork) for the Kanto Gym Leaders.
This was the first expansion in Japan to feature cards on the e-series layout, first featured in English in Expedition Base Set. A "VS" symbol appears in the corner, replaced with the "e" symbol in later expansions. This was likely a taster for Japanese players for the upcoming e-sets, as these cards feature no Dot-Code data. The Japanese card back design also changed from the old "Pocket Monsters Card Game" to the current "Pokémon" design to keep a universal identity for all countries that had adopted the game.
Pokémon VS introduced two long-term game mechanics. The first was the classification of Special Conditions, which saved the need to reference a number of them in attack or Pokémon Power effects. Burned was also added as a Special Condition. These changes would eventually be implemented in English in Expedition Base Set. The second were Technical Machine cards, which, like their namesake in the Pokémon games, allow the Pokémon they are attached to use an attack as specified on the card. These cards would also debut in English in Expedition Base Set.
This expansion was distributed in a non-conventional manner. While the cards were still packaged in foil packs, each of these packs contained 30 cards instead of the traditional 10 cards, costing ¥690 instead of ¥300. This was also the first time the term 'half deck' was officially used and became a recognized method of gameplay. There were three random half decks released: Grass & Lightning, Water & Fire, and Fighting & Psychic. Each half deck contained a random assortment of set type Pokémon (i.e. one could only get a Fire-type Pokémon in the Water & Fire half deck). Colorless-type Pokémon and Trainer cards could be found in all half decks.
The 30 cards in each booster pack consisted of: 11 energy cards, 11 character cards, 6 trainer cards (2 of which were TMs), 1 holo character card, and 1 holo special energy card.
A Grass/Lightning booster pack features 4 trainers, 2 TMs (Bugsy, Whitney, Jasmine, Janine) 5 Grass-type Pokémon, 3 Lightning-type Pokémon, 3 Colorless-type Pokémon (available in this pack are Whitney's Miltank, Furret, Lickitung, Clefable, Wigglytuff, Lance's Dragonite.) 6 Grass energy, 5 Lightning energy, 1 Holo Metal energy, and 1 Holo Metal-type Pokémon (Falkner's Skarmory, Bugsy's Scizor, Jasmine's Steelix, Bruno's Steelix).
A Psychic/Fighting booster pack features 4 trainers, 2 TMs (Morty, Chuck, Will, Bruno, Rocket), 5 Psychic-type Pokémon, 3 Fighting-type Pokémon, 3 Colorless-type Pokémon (available in this pack are Falkner's Togetic, Whitney's Persian, Morty's Noctowl, Chuck's Tauros, Granbull, Bruno's Ursaring.), 6 Fighting energy, 5 Psychic energy, 1 Holo Rainbow energy, and 1 Holo Rocket's Pokémon (Wobbuffet, Raikou, Entei, Suicune).
A Fire/Water booster pack features 4 trainers, 2 TMs (Falkner, Pryce, Clair, Karen, Lance), 5 Water-type Pokémon, 3 Fire-type Pokémon, 3 Colorless-type Pokémon (available in this pack are Falkner's Pidgeot, Fearow, Dodrio, Farfetch'd, Delibird, Claire's Dragonite.), 6 Water energy, 5 Fire energy, 1 Holo Dark energy, 1 Holo Dark-type Pokémon (Morty's Murkrow, Pryce's Sneasel, Karen's Tyranitar, Umbreon).
Pokémon VS was also the first Japanese expansion to use a numbering system. Instead of ordering them alphabetically and in descending rarity as with English expansions, the Japanese system has always ordered cards by type and National Pokédex number. This expansion slightly modifies this by categorising them by Gym Leader encounter order, followed by the Elite Four, Team Rocket, and the Champion.
Wizards of the Coast officially stated that they had no plans to release the VS set, primarily because they had competitive play in mind. Some cards from this expansion were still released in English in the Tyranitar Half Deck; however, these cards were produced by MEDIAFACTORY and received a limited release to competitors of the 2001 Tropical Mega Battle. Despite this statement, Pokémon USA localized the Generation IV equivalent, Pokémon SP when they debuted in the Platinum expansion.
This was also the first Japanese expansion to feature a secret card: Rocket's Tyranitar, which could only be found in the Tyranitar Half Deck, distributed in conjunction with the Japanese theatrical release of Celebi: a Timeless Encounter.
All Gym Leaders from Kanto and Johto are present in this expansion, excluding Giovanni and Blue.
Except for Brock, whose two cards were illustrated by different artists, each TCG artist illustrated all of the Pokémon for a single character: Atsuko Nishida (Falkner), Kyoko Umemoto (Bugsy), Miki Tanaka (Whitney), Naoyo Kimura (Morty), Yukiko Baba (Jasmine), Masako Yamashita (Chuck), Mitsuhiro Arita (Pryce), Shin-ichi Yoshida (Clair), Etsuya Hattori (Lt. Surge), Asuka Iwashita (Sabrina), Satoshi Ohta (Misty), Motofumi Fujiwara (Erika), Tomokazu Komiya (Janine), Kimiya Masago (Blaine), Kagemaru Himeno (Will), Toshinao Aoki (Koga), Yuka Morii (Bruno), Hajime Kusajima (Karen), Hironobu Yoshida (Rocket) and Aya Kusube (Lance). Additionally, "Big Mama" Tagawa illustrated all of the TM trainer cards. The same would be done for all normal variations of Pokémon , Pokémon , Pokémon , and Pokémon in Rising Rivals and Supreme Victors.
The only uncommon cards in this expansion are Trainer cards.
This was the first Japanese expansion to include 1st Edition cards.

Us Vs. Them: A Comparative between the East and West in the Cold War
The Cold War was a time of long lasting strife and antagonism between the east and west. Some would argue that vestiges of that time still carry over into today and into modern politics. One thing that certainly remains as a standing tribute to that time, however, is the vast amount of propaganda generated by both sides of the conflict. The rhetoric of the cold war was pointed in its messages and powerful in its methods, usually using strong visuals to try and make the readers associate certain negative or positive images with ideas. Among these, four posters stand out in particular that come from the Soviet Union and from various western countries.
So what's the common theme between these posters? What is it that made them so effective in their time? Well, at first there is a very obvious commonality, all are meant to evoke feelings of apprehension and possibly anger and hate. Both the Soviet posters and the western posters use imagery to attempt to make a demon out of someone or something. Yet a key difference arises when what is being demonized is being taken into account.
The Soviet posters specifically target the United States, depicting an obviously American character such as Uncle Sam, or plastering USA on a red and white striped gas mask are. These are not subtle, in fact they are very in your face about who is the enemy in this particular instance. The Soviets did not target the general west in their propaganda, and there is very little in the way of pointed jabs at the likes of France or Great Britain. Rather the Soviets attempted to hold up the United States as the catch all representative of western society and aggression, and thus demonizing the United States alone would achieve their ultimate goal of lambasting the opponents of communism.
In comparison the western propaganda attempts to more diabolize the idea of communism as a whole rather than any one country. Rather than specifically targeting Russia or some other Soviet state, the French and United States posters use a rhetoric that seems to imply that communism itself is what is at fault. The French poster takes it a step further, using a caricature of Stalin to more fully put the blame on the shoulders of individuals, however the over all feeling is that communism itself claims peace while sitting fully armed and ready to attack. The United States poster uses red ink to symbolize the spread of communism, showing that its communism itself that is spreading like an aggressive disease, and that it needs to be halted before it can progress any further.
To reiterate on commonalities however, all four posters use the archetype of aggression or weaponry to symbolize a threat. For the United States it is simply an aggressive spread of red ink on a map as previously stated. However in the French and Soviet posters this aggression is more fully realized by the presence of an actual weapon. For the French it is less of a faint hinting at weaponry and more of a mace in your face. The Soviets use more ideas that hint at weapons more dangerous than a simple mace, poisonous chemicals that rain death in Vietnam, or the hanging threat of nuclear warfare represented by a simple refused pen, for indeed there is no weapon mightier.
Another key commonality between these posters is the striking use of words that are supposed to be the message which the reader takes with them. Almost all of them make use of some sort of easily remembered slogan that helps the message stick in the readers mind. "Paix" or "Peace", "No- to Chemical weapons", "It's your choice", "The people are waiting". All of these are simple, short, and easy to remember. This makes them great propaganda slogans, as they can be triggered by either seeing the same poster again, seeing a similar image, or maybe even just hearing about the depicted entity (ie. Soviets, Russia, The United States, etc). Since they are so easy to call to mind, often they will be the first thing thought of when the subject is brought up in conversation or the news. This would immediately generate animosity, even if only at a subconscious level, and further the aims of those who put up the propaganda piece in the first place. Eventually the general undertone of nations towards one another would be entrenched in feelings of distrust, hate, and anger.
All of these feelings of hate and anger that are generated by these posters further what can only be described as a race to death. This race saw world powers trying to display their power through bigger, better bombs and missiles, capable of raining death upon the enemy at the push of a button. It was, and still is, only a matter of time before someone gets too much of an itchy trigger finger and the whole world collapses in on itself in a ball of nuclear fire.
The great race to death is well represented in these posters, with every one hinting at a horrifying outcome unless something is done to stop the "menace" to the various country in which it was displayed. It is posters like this that helped to escalate the war on the home front throughout the opposing powers. While the intent may have been to generate support and sympathy for the nation displaying the poster itself, the ultimate result was fear, hate, and animosity towards those countries, nations, and peoples depicted. Animosities that still linger on into the modern age.
What makes these posters still relevant in the modern age? As stated, the feelings of distrust are still lingering between the major eastern and western powers, some would argue to the extent that we never really left the cold war behind. However there are some key changes that have been taking place, enough that as a people it is possible to look back on these posters as representative of feelings of the past, and to learn from them. In analyzing these posters taken together, it is clear the the arms race was not the only power creep that was taking place, indeed propaganda became less subtle and more pointed in its targets as the cold war crept on. This would in turn heighten the animosity, leading to even more vicious posters and pieces of propaganda until the whole thing comes crashing down. What can be taken away from this then is that this power creep needs to be avoided in the future, not just in an arms race, but also in how we portray a supposed enemy. For in transgressing in representing a supposed enemy, we may in fact make a very real enemy of them.

Why would a President Trump have any respect for our democratic institutions now? If elected, he will know he owes it to Russian hackers, Wikileaks, Putin, and rogue factions within our intelligence community. If he ever wanted to get anything done, why wouldn't he naturally assume those were his go to guys? And what price would they exact? Who would be safe if they were fingered as an enemy of this sickeningly mad cabal? Their enemies would become his enemies, and isn't America their enemy?
We all know he has the temperment and impulse control of a three year old, so why would he show any patience for our gridlocked legislative and legal process when he already has had a taste of getting things done quickly, easily, and effectively by turning to shadowy tactics and shortcuts to democracy.
I can see him making this speech right now. "Would you want me to just get it done and not tell you how it was done or not to do it all? So what if a few eggs are broken. Just win, baby."
But as anyone who has ever witnessed how shadowy operators work, the first one is always on the house. Wikileaks, The Russians, and even elements of our own F.B.I. all have colluded to help Donald Trump become President, but why?
That's the scary part, because if you vote for Donald Trump now you have to be comfortable with the leader of the world being beholding to these groups, and whatever agendas they are trying to accomplish. Trump already has stated he thinks it would be better if we worked with the Russians. He seems to have started early.

Professor Dame Sarah Gilbert: oration
Read Dr Asel Sartbaeva's oration on Professor Dame Sarah Gilbert for the honorary degree of Doctor of Science in July 2022
View more corporate information in Marketing
Professor Dame Sarah Gilbert
Vice-Chancellor, it gives me great pleasure to introduce to you and the congregation, Professor Dame Sarah Gilbert, a world-leading vaccinologist, who gave us hope during one of the darkest winters, and whose work on developing a COVID-19 vaccine is saving millions of lives worldwide.
Dame Sarah attended Kettering High School for Girls, where she realised that she wanted a career in medicine. She went on to the University of East Anglia, where she obtained a Batchelor of Science degree in Biological Sciences in 1983. She obtained her Doctorate from the University of Hull, graduating in 1986. After working in the industry for several years, she returned to academia, first as a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Oxford in 1994, then appointed Research Lecturer in 1999, Reader in Vaccinology in 2004, and Professor of Vaccinology in 2010.
Her chief research interest is the development of viral vectored vaccines that work by inducing strong and protective T and B cell responses. She works on vaccines for many different emerging pathogens, including influenza A, Nipah virus, MERS, Lassa virus and CCHF virus. In 2020 Professor Gilbert became the Oxford Project Leader for ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, a vaccine against the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, widely known as COVID-19.
The story of the development of this vaccine is remarkable. Starting in January 2020, once the genetic code was published by Chinese scientists, Dame Sarah and her group worked around the clock, and by early February, the lab's version of the vaccine was tested on mice, showing a strong immune response. However, a lot more work was needed before the clinical trials on people could start. They needed to show that it is genetically stable, production is scalable and, ultimately that the vaccine is safe. I still remember reading the announcement by Oxford University in April 2020 that the first volunteers had been injected with this vaccine and around 1100 people would take part in the first human trials. I was astonished, shocked that this could be done so quickly, but simultaneously crossed my fingers, hoping that the results would be good.
Phase III trials of vaccine efficacy in 30,000 adults in the UK, Brazil and South Africa were underway by the end of May. We all remember that summer of 2020, millions infected and dead worldwide, lives put on hold, economies ruined, the loneliness and cruelty, and a sense of hopelessness. For me personally, as for many of us, it became an obsession – reading eagerly awaited news of the vaccine development, it gave me hope that the end was in sight.
In her own modest words, Dame Sarah said: 'I have worked in the development of vaccines against infectious pathogens for many years and in the last 2 years have been able to draw on all that I have learned in order to respond to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. I have been so fortunate to work with a very talented and dedicated team who made it possible to develop a vaccine in less time than anyone thought possible.'
In the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Oxford–AstraZeneca vaccine is said to have saved more than a million people worldwide from death and prevented more than 50 million people from being infected with COVID-19. There are not many people who have done this.
Being a successful scientist and mother of three, Prof Gilbert is an inspiration to many girls and young women in Science. Vice-Chancellor, I present to you Professor Dame Sarah Catherine Gilbert who is eminently worthy to receive the Degree of Science honoris causa.

This summer, when you are looking for the most delicious food in Northern Colorado, this is the Greeley food truck you don't want to miss.
Ben Fusco, the director of the food truck, is a culinary genius who wants to celebrate the flavors of Greeley. He finds inspiration for his ethnic fusion creations from local Greeley stories, bringing together a variety of backgrounds and experiences from the people he meets into the flavors he chooses.
They keep the core menu the same, but are always experimenting with new flavor combinations, so you will always find something new. The best way to do that is to order the "Trust Ben", Ben's newest culinary concoction. In the past, there have been meals like crispy pork belly with sweet chili sauce spicy pickled radish and crispy leeks over jasmine rice, curry beef brisket quesadillas with burnt tomato chutney and Tamarind Crema with a side of Elote en Vaso (Mexican street corn), 16-hour slow cooked Caribbean braised lamb in a cherry wine sauce over Jamaican Jerk fried cauliflower rice and beet hummus with flatbread, and pickle brined southern style buttermilk fried chicken sandwich with crack sauce and queso fries.
You never know what you'll find at Everyone's Table!
Everyone's Table is a Greeley local food truck, supported by Zoe's Cafe & Christ Community Church aiming to serve and build community around northern Colorado.
They value unity and what better way to connect with others and hear people's stories than over a delicious dinner?
Ben gets many of his ingredients from local authentic stores, supporting the community even more.
Everyone is invited to the table, everyone's story matters, and you are always greeted with a smile from Ben or one his volunteers.
It first opened its doors in September and has been becoming more and more popular ever since. Right now, this Greeley food truck is staying inside of the city limits with the purpose of building community.

Last week I had another amazing evening at the St. Jude Call to Service event hosted by the National Pan-Hellenic Council. This is my third year attending and it gets better and better every time. Each year we meet an amazing St. Jude patient and hear their story. Then we enjoy the musical sounds of amazing artist like Kelly Price, Regina Belle, and this year Raheem Devaughn.
Each year I always wrestle over what I am going to wear. The Divine Nine show up and show out in their finest threads. So I must come to play. This look was an oldie but a goodie.
They had St. Jude patient signs at the outside entrance of The Hamilton LIVE on 14th Street, NW in Washington, DC. This was so smart because folks walking by could see and read the signs and be moved to donate. Yes to the marketing department.
At St. Jude Children's Research Hospital®, Dallas is being treated for familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and Gardner syndrome, which he inherited from his father. FAP is an inherited disorder characterized by cancer of the colon, while Gardner syndrome is a form of FAP characterized by multiple colorectal polyps and various types of tumors, both cancerous and noncancerous. The type of tumors Dallas has are noncancerous.
Dallas has undergone two surgeries to remove tumor growth. When he was 7 years old, Dallas began taking oral chemotherapy to keep the tumors stable. Around this time, his father passed away from complications due to Gardner syndrome.
During Dallas' most recent visit to St. Jude, he stopped taking oral chemotherapy, and his care team is determining future treatment options, including surgery to remove tumor growth, intravenous chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. He's being monitored for FAP and has already begun to undergo yearly colonoscopies.
Despite the challenges Dallas faces, he's an outgoing and funny kid. He loves telling jokes and solving riddles. "Dallas has a lot of love for God," Tekia said. "He's given Dallas strength and he's just so positive." Dallas loves coming to St. Jude and always makes sure to visit his nurses.
Dallas has always been fascinated by the weather. When he grows up, he wants to be a meteorologist. "Dallas has a good spirit," said his mother, Tekia. "He loves to sing at church. He loves speaking and won a 4H contest for giving a speech. And of course, he loves the weather." This video is just what our soul needs to see and hear.
R&B singer and philanthropist Raheem Devaughn took the stage with Wes Felton.
He tore it up, yall missed it. I've been a fan for a long time, so this was perfect.
We chatted about his talent, the legacy he is leaving behind and why giving back means so much to him.
I came, I gave, I laughed, I sang, I did an interview, enjoyed the food and added another good night to the books.
Thank you to everyone for the support, I appreciate it. You can still help me reach my goal St. Jude Team Mimi's Cuties and you can do it with me in DC September 29th to walk/run.
This sounds like it was a great event. Dallas is a strong kid too.
He really is, I pray that things get better for him.
Awww thanks, taking folks on this journey with me was exactly what I wanted. I love that he was open, those are the type of interviews you hope to get. Thanks for supporting me.
What an awesome young man. Something tells me he's going to get those wishes. Thanks for sharing another one of your great evenings with us!
I pray that he does Stacie, I really do.
This event looked like an amazing event. I hollered THANK YOU JESUS when I read the part that they will never receive a bill, that's truly awesome because hospital bills are SERIOUS!!! Your outfit is pretty!
Girl! Listen, the way medical bills are set up and I know you know. That is indeed worthy of a THANK YOU JESUS!
I really need to look into St. Jude events in and around Atlanta. I want to support St. Jude in service. Also, Raheem DeVaughn is one of my favorites. This interview was great and I am here for him even more.
Check them out, they should have a local office in Atlanta. They have incredible events, and they are always looking for people to help share their message.
This made me love Raheem even more.
Each year I look forward to learning more about what St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is doing to make a difference in our community. I love that so much attention and care goes towards the Sickle Cell community.
Yes, the crazy thing is a lot of folks still don't know that St. Jude treats Sickle Cell.
Praying for Dallas. What a brave little boy. And it's so awesome to see Raheem Devaughn, and so many artists giving of their time to support such note-worthy causes.
Dallas was amazing, despite his medical concerns he still finds joy. I adore that about him.
Yes, I adore celebs even more when they give back.
God bless Dallas. Kids are amazing man. His spirit is such an encouragement.
I freaking loved his spirit.

Lomilomi means to massage, to comfort, to feel a thing to ascertain its qualities. The Ancient Hawaiians knew even back then that massage was not only healing, but an essential part of healthy living, and that to make a correct assessment and promote healing, one must "feel" that person. The benefits of massage are well known, yet, too often many put off different modalities simply because of mis-information. Lomilomi (or simply Lomi) can be quite beneficial if one is open to the different paths to healing.
The ancestors used Lomilomi to relax, to heal sore muscles and make spinal adjustments and set broken bones. They were able to turn a baby in a transverse birth or correct twisted intestines; they could help control a fever and relieve chest congestion and promote clear breathing. With the knowledge of points on the body, the correct oils and proper use of herbs, the Lomi practitioner can help the ailed in many many ways of which most folks, even therapists are unaware.

Q: How do I get warnings for uninitialized member variables? (clang, c++17) I understand that c++ variable initialization is extremely complicated and not all compilers 100% conform to the standard, if it's well defined in the first place. Therefore, I want to generate warnings in our whole codebase wherever a variable is not explicitly initialized.
Through my search, I came across these two flags: -Wmissing-field-initializers and -Wconditional-uninitialized, which look promising. So, I tried the following test code:
#include <iostream>

class Foo {
private:
  int bar;

public:
  Foo() {}
  int Bar() { return bar; }
};

int main () {
  Foo foo;
  std::cout << foo.Bar();
  return 0;
}

where Foo::bar is not initialized anywhere: it's not value initialized, the constructor is user defined and does not initialize bar. However, when I compiled it with clang++ -std=c++17 -Wmissing-field-initializers -Wmissing-field-initializers, I'm not getting any warnings.
What am I missing here? Thanks.

Q: Python: extract all the information(src, href, title) inside the class I found that I can extract all the information I want from this HTML. I need to extract title, href abd src from this.
HTML:

Code:
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

res = requests.get('http://www.cad.com/')
soup = BeautifulSoup(res.text,"lxml")
for a in soup.findAll('div', {"id":"home"}):
    for b in a.select(".main"):
        print ("http://www.cad.com"+b.get('href'))
        print(b.get('title'))

I can successfully get href from this, but since title and src are in another line, I don't know how to extract them. After this, I want to save them in excel, so maybe I need to finish one first then do the second one.
Expected output:
/slim?p=3090
apple
/FileUploads/Post/3091.jpg?w=70&h=70&mode=crop" alt="banana" title="banana
/slim?p=3091
banana
/FileUploads/Post/3091.jpg?w=70&h=70&mode=crop" alt="banana" title="banana

A: My own solution:
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

res = requests.get('http://www.cad.com/')
soup = BeautifulSoup(res.text,"lxml")
for a in soup.findAll('div', {"id":"home"}):
    div = a.findAll('div', {"class": "home-hot-thumb"})
    for div in div:
        title=(div.img.get('title'))
        print(title)
        href=('http://www.cad.com/'+div.a.get('href'))
        print(href)
        src=('http://www.cad.com/'+div.img.get('src'))
        print(src.replace('?w=70&h=70&mode=crop', ''))
