Wednesday's letters: Death penalty sabotaged by system
Published Jan. 3, 2012
A second look at death penalty | Dec. 29, commentary
Penalty sabotaged by the system
Susan Estrich's intellectually dishonest inability to examine why the death penalty has become an ineffective remedy is emblematic of the blindness of the professoriat and the political class toward the logical outcomes of their policies. The reason that death penalty appeals take years to litigate while consuming millions of taxpayer dollars is that leftist hacks appointed to the bench by politicians create litigable "rights" out of thin air that a lawyer representing the particular murderer or rapist in the case at hand must pursue, at taxpayer cost, lest the attorney be found to have provided the murderer or rapist with ineffective legal assistance.
Each and every element of each and every new "right" conferred by leftist judges on the criminal class becomes its own cottage industry of specialty litigation, with the result that more years and more expert witness fees are extracted from the public.
Once the left has sabotaged the system, the issue of whether the death penalty serves as a deterrent is moot. No penalty that can easily be deferred for decades because professors, judges and lawyers have gamed the system can have any hope of serving as a deterrent.
Arguing that "life without parole" is a legitimate substitute for the death penalty is disingenuous. Freed of the need to oppose the emotionally compelling argument regarding the finality of the death penalty, the criminal defense bar and the law school professoriat will find that undermining a "life without parole" system will be child's play.

State board of bullying | Dec. 24, editorial
Genshaft's ill-advised move
The Board of Governors of the State University System of Florida takes great interest in USF Polytechnic and sees promise in this campus and its approach to research, education and job creation. After careful deliberation, the board established a process for Polytechnic, now a branch campus, to become an independent institution.
The Board of Governors set benchmarks — goals the campus must reach before it can leave the University of South Florida and become Florida's 12th public university. These requirements include executing extensive planning activities, reaching adequate enrollment and meeting the full accreditation standards of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
Achieving these benchmarks won't be easy — success will take skill, dedication, hard work and commitment to the transition to university status. That's why the members of the Board of Governors Special Committee on USF Polytechnic were surprised to see USF president Judy Genshaft appoint as Polytechnic's interim leader an individual who had been publicly opposed to this path of growth, development and independence.
We do not question Genshaft's authority regarding personnel matters; however, while she gave notice that she intended to fire the previous campus leader, she left Board of Governors members in the dark about his replacement. Genshaft's selection of an interim leader once viewed as hostile to Polytechnic's independence created tensions between the higher education community and political leaders — unnecessary friction that could have been avoided through collaboration and cooperation.
The Board of Governors has outlined an exciting future for USF Polytechnic. Reaching that future requires full and active collaboration with USF's president and the Polytechnic leadership. The Board of Governors is prepared to work diligently and enthusiastically to develop Polytechnic's potential as a university, and it expects the same from the leadership of USF and USF Polytechnic.

The homeless among us | Dec. 30
It's not a plague
I was taken aback by the language of this article. Try reading it and substituting for the word "homeless" one of these: mentally ill, women, disabled, or any of a number of nationalities, ethnicities or races. The article will sound exactly like articles of old, before our "enlightenment" of tolerance and inclusion — or our forced adherence to civil rights.
We often gasp as we read articles from the 20th century at the stereotypes, the lack of sensitivity, and the unfairness of seeing the growth of groups as a "problem" to be dealt with. Yet here we are again. "Homelessness" is not a plague; it is real people — people whose needs must be met, who need to be assimilated in some way into our communities. Each of the aforementioned "substitute" groups had individuals who created problems and perhaps wanted to take advantage of the system, but most were decent people who wanted to be treated respectfully and with dignity. Many were willing to work hard, do their part and give back to the community in exchange for being assimilated into that community fairly. The same would be true of the "homeless."
I would hope that, in years to come, we will read this article and be amazed at the lack of sensitivity in grouping these individuals as "problems with the homeless."

Lack of focus hurts Occupy movement Jan. 3, John Romano column
Inequality is the problem
We already have an "everyman" columnist in the "that's all I'm sayin' " guy. We really need a more sophisticated political watcher for "Florida's best newspaper."
This column says the message of the Occupy movement is too vague. Then it says the movement is unclear as to who the enemy is. How about you — the newspapers — addressing the causes of discontent instead of puzzling over the results?
Inequality is the common thread throughout the world of street protests. Nowhere in the industrialized world is there greater economic inequity than in the United States. This situation has been worsening for 40 years.
The result? The worst fiscal crisis in living memory, which has halved real estate values and flooded cities with the homeless. Even retirees question their future.
If you don't get it, go back to sports.

Fort De Soto fees
Visitors must do their part
Many of the objections to the new fees at Fort De Soto miss the mark. With the fees, maybe the grass can get cut all over, not just at the road's edge. Perhaps tree maintenance can be done.
We pick up trash each trip we make. If others put it in the cans provided, the park wouldn't need workers to do that for them. It is a shame that what funds are available have to be wasted there instead of repairing areas needed. Volunteers cannot be expected to do all the work.

UN lists 112 businesses linked to Israeli settlements
The UN human rights office has issued a long-awaited report on companies linked to Jewish settlements in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
The report names 112 business entities the office says it has reasonable grounds to conclude have been involved in activities related to settlements.
They include Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia Group and Motorola Solutions.
The Palestinians said the report was a "victory for international law", but Israel called it "shameful".
About 600,000 Jews live in about 140 settlements built since Israel's occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem in 1967. The settlements are widely considered illegal under international law, though Israel has always disputed this.
The Palestinians have long called for the removal of the settlements, arguing that their presence on land they claim for a future independent Palestinian state makes it almost impossible to make such a state a reality.
Last month, US President Donald Trump unveiled a peace plan that may pave the way for Israel annexing the settlements.
In an address to the UN Security Council on Tuesday, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas reiterated his rejection of Mr Trump's plan, describing the proposed Palestinian state as looking "like a Swiss cheese".
But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it was "the best plan that exists for the Middle East… and for the State of Israel and for the Palestinians, too".
What does the report say?
In 2016, the UN Human Rights Council mandated the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) to produce a database of companies involved in specific activities relating to settlements. The activities included:
Supplying equipment and materials facilitating the construction and expansion of settlements and Israel's West Bank barrier
Supplying equipment for the demolition of housing and property, and the destruction of farms, greenhouses, olive groves and crops
Providing services and utilities supporting the maintenance and existence of settlements, including transport
Banking and financial operations helping to develop, expand or maintain settlements and their activities, including loans for housing and businesses
Following what it said was a thorough review and assessment of all information available, the OHCHR presented a report on Wednesday identifying 112 business entities that it said, there were reasonable grounds to conclude, had been involved in one or more of those activities.
Of the entities listed, 94 are domiciled in Israel and 18 in six other states – the United States, France, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Thailand and the UK.
"The report makes clear that the reference to these business entities is not, and does not purport to be, a judicial or quasi-judicial process," the OHCHR said.
"While the settlements as such are regarded as illegal under international law, this report does not provide a legal characterisation of the activities in question, or of business enterprises' involvement in them," it added.
Any further steps will be a matter for Human Rights Council member states.
"I am conscious this issue has been, and will continue to be, highly contentious," said Michelle Bachelet, the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
What has been the reaction?
The Palestinian Authority's Foreign Minister, Riyad al-Maliki, said: "The publication of the list of companies and parties operating in settlements is a victory for international law."
He also called on the Human Rights Council member states to "issue recommendations and instructions to these companies to end their work immediately with the settlements".
Mr Netanyahu suggested his country would retaliate, saying on Twitter: "Whoever boycotts us will be boycotted. We strongly reject this contemptible effort."
The main body representing Jewish settlers, the Yesha Council, said the list had "clear anti-Semitic features" and insisted the companies were "working to strengthen the economy in the area and are contributing to peace more than the UN has done in all its years of operation".
Human Rights Watch said the list "should put all companies on notice: to do business with illegal settlements is to aid in the commission of war crimes."
There were no immediate comments from the companies named on the list.

Macon East Baseball Takes State
Home/News and Events/Baseball/Macon East Baseball Takes State
The Macon East varsity baseball team swept Clarke Prep at the AISA AA state tournament at Patterson Field to bring home the championship trophy. The Knights went 33-13 for the season and won their Area with a record of 6-0. With a bye through the first round of playoffs the Knights hosted Escambia in round two and Autauga in round 3. Losing one game in each series, Macon East picked up the tie breaker win to advance to the championship series with Clarke Prep. With a crowd of Macon East fans cheering them on, Coach Pickett and his team took game one 8-4 and shut out the Gators 6-0 in game two with Kohner Massey on the mound. This was the first state championship win for the Macon East baseball program since 2004, and a sweet victory following a loss in 2015 to Edgewood at the state tournament. Seniors Connor Davis and Will Dowe combined for nine RBIs to lead Macon East at the plate. As relief pitcher, Mason Wray came in to game one earning him the win. A group of seniors made up the Knights all-tournament team: Will Dowe, Kohner Massey, Mason Wray and tournament MVP Connor Davis. Davis was 4-for-6 with four RBIs, three runs, and two doubles in the sweep. Coach Bob Pickett knew that this could be the Knights' season to take it all, and they never let up on the goal of getting to State one game at a time. Pickett credits Coach Jim Brantley rejoining the program at pitching coach as a major part of the team's successful season.

Племена су настала удруживањем породица које имају заједничко поријекло или претке. По народном схватању, племе је заједница неког становништва које је потекло од једне породице или од једног лица. На овој основи у народу су настала предања о родоначелницима разних племена у Старој Црној Гори и Старој Херцеговини. На заснованост оваквих схватања указују и патронимички називи племена.

Настанак и развој

Племена постају од два или више братстава која потичу од једне крви. Ријетко се догађа и не пролази најбоље, да се несродно братство придружи неком племену, и то братство се од тог времена звало поселица. Постоје двије фазе у развоју црногорског племенског друштва. Старија је до стварања средњовјековне српске државе, а млађа је од краја -{XIV}- вијека, послије Турске најезде на наше крајеве. Док је постојала српска држава, у политичком животу су функционисале државне норме, док су норме родовског или племенског функционисале у унутрашњој организацији живота народа. Чим је нестала држава племена се појављују као политички фактор. Преко њих је дјеловала и Млетачка и Дубровачка република, не само трговачки већ и политички. Приликом припремања акције против Турака, западне државе су се обраћале племенским савезима.

Словенска традиција

Племе као дио српске етничке историје, осим повезивања црногорског племенског друштва са словенском и јужнословенском етно-језичком заједницом и традицијом, има везу старинаца са досељеницима, да поједине породице у Црној Гори имају континуитет од времена краља Милутина до савременог доба.

Претпостављало се да се племе може формирати из братстава која нису истог породичног поријекла.
На основи духа црногорског народа који не трпи главаре из другог племена Миклошић, негира страно поријекло династије Балшића, упркос мишљењу историчара, који на основу страних извора, изводе њихово поријекло од куће -{de-Baux}-. Ипак је први Балшић био господар цијеле Зете, а не први човјек једног племена, па је био род Немањићима, а поставила га је чврста рука Стефана Душана.

Први досељеници на простор данашње Црне Горе
Срби су крајем вијека населили Балканско полуострво, заузимајући прво сјеверозападне дијелове и ширећи се обалом Јадранског мора потискивали Аваре, мијешајући се са такозваним Латинима римским колонистима. Истовремено је текло насељавање Зете из два правца, са југа из Приморја и са сјевера из Босне, Захумља и Травуније. До -{X}- вијека, па и раније ове крајеве је потпуно населило српско племе и овде почиње његов политички живот, који тако напредује да се већ у -{XI}- вијеку овдје јавља подстицај за уједињавање народа у једну државу.

Старосједиоци и досељавања у -{XV}- вијеку

Други су слој створили досељеници добијени после пада Српског царства, углавном у другој половини -{XV}- вијека, када је и Краљевина Босна изгубила самосталност, а Зета остала једино уточиште слободног српства. Ово досељавање је било тако масовно да су старосједиоци убрзо постали мањина. Из прошлости појединих племена записано је какви су били односи између старог становништва и досељеника који су убрзо надвладали да би се према старосједиоцима који су били сведени на минимум односили са извјесним презрењем, дајући им имена која им никада нису припадала каква су: Мацуре, Жудељи, Шпањи, Букумири. Измишљали су о њима невјероватне приче — како су једни друге поубијали и тако сами себе уништили, да су проклети и да се зато не размножавају. Ови старосједиоци у стварности ни по чему нису били гори од досељеника, који су се кочопериле својим ратним подвизима. Историјска је чињеница да су ови старосједиоци помогли Немањи да побиједи Византију, па су Немањићи са њима створили српску државу.

Досељеници из Босне и Херцеговине

Досељеници из Босне и Херцеговине прихватили су имена Његуши — по селу у коме су се населили. Озринићи по племену у које су се укључили када су се доселили, слично је са Бјелопавлићима тако су сачувани и називи мјеста Малоншићи и Мазнићи. Сва је Катунска нахија своје досељенике добила из Босне и Херцеговине који нису директно дошли из свог бившег завичаја, већ заобилазним путевима одлазећи далеко на запад и до Далмације и мање или више се тамо задржавајући. Тако су његушки досељеници неко вријеме живљели испод Његоша у Херцеговини, што им је дало основу да су отуда и своје име донијели. Са њима су тамо живљели и Церовићи који су тај крај напустили касније, а презиме добијају по планини Церовици са којим су и дошли у Дробњаке.

Стара племена

Црногорска племена су насељавала данашњу територију Црне Горе, некадашње Рашке и Зете, окупљени око својих заједничких предака.

Подела племена по групама (Јован Цвијић)

Подељена су на две групе. У средњовековној Црној Гори је било 21 племе, које је се налазило у 4 нахије. У Рашкој је било 26 племена, која су се налазила у 3 области.

Trailer Trash Tuesday: 06/05/2012
by The Vern · June 5, 2012 · Trailer Trash · 5 Comments
(Using my bad 90's singing voice) "Summer, Summer, Summer time (oooh summer time). Time to sit back and unwind" D.J. Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince. Summertime
All right I'll stop, but you can pick up my latest album. "The Vern does bad covers of 80's and 90's rap songs. That track reminds me that we are in full swing as the summer season continues. "Snow White and The Hunstman" became the fairest in the land as it landed in the number one spot this weekend. Followed by "Men in Black 3" at number two and "The Avengers" at number three. Despite some great reviews Wes Anderson's latest "Moonrise Kingdom " come in at number 13, this week, but surprisingly "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" stays strong at number 6. Out beating "Dark Shadows" and "What to Expect When Your Expecting" and those movies were released in more theatres.
This week I got a great platter of trailer tidbits to much on. I hope this will at least tide you over until the actual movies are released.
Les Miserables. 12/14/2012
I don't get to see a lot of musicals, and its not because I don't like them. It's because they are too damn expensive to watch on the stage. Most of all the big musicals I have seen have been the filmed version, and most of them have been been good (Mostly). Now we get the screen adaptation of another well known one and this looks really good too. Academy Award winner Tom Hooper ( "The King's Speech") directs this adaptation with Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe. The trailer doesn't tell you any of the story, but it does show what looks to be Anne Hathaway singing. I gotta admit folks I was almost moved to tears when I heard this She is f____ing incredible. The original I'm sure is way better, but based on this little teaser This looks like one to see on the big screen.
The Apparition. 08/24/2012
A group of college students set out to prove that ghost exist because we believe they do. Their latest experiment is a success because they release a spirit out into the real world. A ghost who apparently has seen a lot of horror movies because when I watch this trailer. I see references to "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre","Ju-On" ("The Grudge") and "Paranormal Activity". This is what I call a kitchen sink movie. One that puts in every sort of genre cliche but the kitchen sink. This movie may scare some people out there,but it did very little for me.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower. 09/14/2012
The new kid in school doesn't quite fit in, but luckily finds friends who are outcasts too. Well at least outcasts in movie land circa 1985. In this fictional town all the popular kids are jocks and cheerleaders and anyone who is different is labeled a dweeb and a nerd. Yes it's one of those empowering movies where the little guy gets his chance to really shine and stand up for himself. The cast looks good and I'm glad to see Emma Watson continue to get roles after she left the School of Hogwarts. Ezra Miller who showed us how creepy he can be in "We Need To Talk About Kevin" really is quite charming and funny in this. I love seeing actors who can do completely different characters and make them believable. It's not one I would usually seek out, but the cast is impressive enough. I just may.
The Woman in The Fifth. 06/15/2012
Ethan Hawke has an affair with Kristin Scott Thomas while he's visiting France. Kristen's character becomes so obsessed with Ethan's that she does some pretty horrific things including murder to keep him there. This looks like the french version of "Fatal Attraction", but with just a little twist because it looks like Ethan's character was involved with what looks like a sex scandal involving a young girl. Both characters have secrets they would want to keep hidden and that adds a nice dynamic to the plot Some of the acting looks to be a bit over the top, but it's story would interest me enough to want to rent this.
Hit me up with comments and suggestions below. Have a great week.

Pass along copy was won by commenter #1 Havalah!
Because I totally forgot to ask for email addresses (derp! I blame being buried in Mine to Spell edits ;), if you would email your mailing address, Havalah, I'll get it shipped out to you!
I have a paperback copy of You Are Mine that I can't sell because it's technically a proof. The thing is, it's exactly like the final version, except for the word proof printed on the last page. I debated what to do with it when the idea hit me that hopefully some readers would enjoy. A Pass Along Paperback!
You can read it if you haven't already, but by saying you'd like to receive it, you're promising to pass it on when you're finished. If you've already read it and just want to pass it on, that's fine, too.
It can be passed on to anyone, so long as you think they'd enjoy it AND they are willing to pass it on when they finish it.
You will have the option of writing your name and location in the book.
You will also have the option of taking a picture with the book and sharing it with me on facebook, twitter, or email if you so desire.
Obviously I can't make you pass it along, but please, if you don't want to pass it along, either purchase a copy for yourself or wait until I have another giveaway. I will be giving away more paperback copies in the future, one of which will be soon.
If you've read over the list and would like the pass along copy, please leave a comment below. If more than one person would like it, I will use random.org to choose a winner.
Would love to read it! If I'm the random winner, I'd be happy to send it to another in the comments. Have a great day.

CASSOPOLIS, Mich. (AP) — The former southwestern Michigan home of an Underground Railroad stationmaster has changed hands and will soon open to visitors.
The Elkhart (Indiana) Truth reports that the Underground Railroad Society of Cass County announced this week that the Stephen Bogue home has been donated by a church on which the property sits.
Bogue sheltered and hid many slaves in his Cassopolis home as they fled to Canada. Bogue, a Quaker, also started Friends Anti-Slavery Society in 1843.
The historical society plans to have the Bogue House open from July through September. Visitors can tour the attic where freedom-seekers hid. They can also learn about the home's role in the 1847 Kentucky Slave Raid.
Society President Mike Moroz says the group is thrilled to become caretakers of an important piece of history.

Time to Ask For Recounts in All Swing States
November 30, 2016 mmcdonald72014 Leave a comment
Ok, after just glancing at the article of U of M computer scientist Alex Haldaman, there appears to be little reason that others do not help Jill Stein and call for recounts in all swing states. This is very unfortunate, but the trouble would be avoided if M. Trump would concede, perhaps to avoid answering questions under oath with Mr. Bright Bart. Six Electors, too, had said already at the time of that article, about a week ago, were saying they could not vote for the Trumpster. Russian hacking and Bright Bart shenanigans have gone from a vague possibility to a near certainty.
Tyrants are like that, that is the kind of thing they do. Look under that rock, look under this, and you may just find a snake. We still want the spy-marketing system to be investigated by the FBI and with Congressional oversight. That we are saving the Obama legacy and preventing what many can see is a national disaster is almost a side issue. The Trumpsters response is to make fun of us and say "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain." Perhaps for an encore, we will bring back the broom of that Wicked Witch of the West, as in our study of tyranny. Where is that water bucket…
The fact that Trump has many supporters who do not understand or who actually choose tyranny is also irrelevant. They will say that we are the cause of Civil War, and many other things. The truth is that Trump would cause civil war, as when the sanctuary cities oppose federal troops and whole states secede. Most of the NRA is law abiding, so it does not yet matte that his move was gain to himself most of the arms. Trump likes to accuse others of what he is in fact doing, which is helpful because then he gives us clues. But that does not change the facts if Russia and the Alt-right entered into treasonous alliance to throw the election. What does one expect? They must say and do something, at least until the water hits them, proving they were made of sugar all along. Yeah, come get me, cowboy, then we will know who you are!

The Emperor was the first Roman Emperor to turn into a monster. Augustus was relatively human. He was the Emperor during the life of Jesus, and it is in coincidence with the life of Jesus that the worst tyrannies ever known came to Rome. Five times, I think, in the first century, the Roman Emperor was a monster- Calligula, then after Claudius, Nero, then later Domitian and thee is one more in thee somewhere, if Nerva was again more tolerable. But Tiberius was the first. His transformation began with extreme paranoia regarding assassins, to which tyrants are notoriously subject, having injured so many people they are bound to find one vengeful. This paranoia seems to have coincided with his descent into lust there on the isle of Capri, so that soon he was taking boys with whom to swim in the pool, etc. When there is no possibility of a conflict of interests, the tyrants lusts can become unlimited, since the law that limited the uncultivated soul is removed for them.
For the Trumpster, should we fail to remove him, we will a surge of power upon inauguration the begins to transform him. Since he has never considered the cultivation of the soul, he will simply be prey to this, though ones own power be not served, even according to Machiavelli. These unintelligent tyrannies are perhaps messy, but less trouble in the long run.
Election Recount: The Republican Arguments Against Looking Behind the Curtain
So far, in addition to raising the price, the republicans have agued that there is no indication of any possible irregularities in the vote count, and that Jill Stein does not have the standing to ask for a recount because she could not possibly have won the election, though Hillary may well have.
Regarding standing, though, it is simply not the law that the candidate must themselves have been within range of victory. We saw them tie the hands of the Democrats with that criticism of the Trumpster for threatening not to honor the results if he did not win. That is the whole reason they were slow to get on board. Plus, it is more proper that this be suggested by the third parties in the interest of another, rather than by one party in their own interest. If Stein had one electoral vote, she would have a literal chance, should there fail to be a majority of electors for either, and the election go to the house where they choose her as a compromise.
It is interesting too that, had Stein thrown her votes to Hillary, she, that is, Hillary, would apparently have won Michigan. That is why, in addition to advising the Democrats to choose Bernie for V.P., we here at the CLC– the smallest political party in America- advised Both her and Mr. Johnson to endorse Hillary. That too would have prevented our little problem here.
There really are no good arguments against a rational consideration of whether we are to allow our nation and the world to drift into an age of Fascism. When there is an important question, it almost always helps to examine the matter methodically and call out all our powers to learn the truth of the matter.
Remember in the movie "Finding Nemo," where the whole school is caught in the fishing boat's net, and Nemo says, Everybody Swim Down!
Well, Everybody, Swim Down!
Michigan Recount: Use Logic, Not Just Calculation / On Islamo-fascism and Twentieth Century Tyranny
We have 80,000 ballots in Michigan for which no vote was cast for president. Do these tend, say by 20,000, to be Democratic voters on the other issues? And is this number similar in all the states, or just the swing states? That is only one of a myriad of ways that the recount needs to be not only calculative, but intelligent. We can ferret these things out if we proceed intelligently. And how do the exit polls match the tally? In one county in Wisconsin, more votes were cast for Trump than thee were voters. Still, if the body politic were manipulated by spying and marketing tactics, we would only be recounting fraudulent or rather adulterated votes. That is why we have called for the Electoral College to revert to the original intent for that body and overturn the election results. But who knows, maybe Putin or Bart Bright Boy are stupid enough to fix our election in every way they could think of, rather than one sure way that we will not find because we ae repressing the truth regarding the spy-marketing, which the FBI likes so well and everyone thought would make them richer and safer, if we could just get around that dang Bill of Rights.
Incidentally, that is how evil often works, using our own sin against us. In response to the question of whether I thought Putin was the Anti-Christ, I answered that he was not smart enough. Lest you fail too to get the joke, that means I do not think he is not wicked enough. Millions of corpses is the legacy of the Russian KGB, and we ae oblivious. Maybe we could have better relations, yea, if the Slaves would get up and free themselves from tyranny for a change, sometime this century. Yeah, how do you like us messing with your "elections?" Marxism is a German ideology, and fascism too comes from the West, whether out of German philosophy, Nazism or Italy. The fasces is of course the Roman scepter of rods and axes. These are the gift of the West to the East, and we would like to give them Jefferson to make up for it.
New thought is emerging about the nature of Islamo-fascism, and as said, we suspect that this too has a Western source, and that the East might rid itself of this as well. We think that twentieth Century totalitarianism emerges out of the void left in the Christian or Biblical imagination when science asks a few questions that quickly lead to atheism. Again, Islam, we Jews and Christians are believers in "the God of Abraham and the last day," not the "infidels" of Mohammed, who were the "polytheists," and indeed the Atheists. Mohamed himself says that the Apostles wee "Muslim," that is, people of the faith. And again, Moses was at least as vicious against the idolaters as is Mohammed, who also teaches not to idolatrize any man, such as Mohammed, as by killing those who write cartoons about him. We do not understand this very well how man was 3,200 years ago, but idolaters practiced human sacrifice, as did most peoples throughout the world (including our idealized native Americans and our British or "Celtic" ancestors, for some very strange reason that is not very well understood. The strange, irrational, anti-Darwinian practice somehow was the practice perhaps 70,000 years ago, when all the other races came out of Africa. Isaiah too describes the last day, and anything said about an Islamic aim at world rule could surely also be said of the Jews and Christians, though this is not what the prophecy means.
These strange tyrannies are intellectual perversions or inversions of the imagination, based indeed as 'Tocqueville says on the void in the Christian imagination. As Marx explicitly writes, revolutionary violence become spiritual violence, "philosophy in action," I believe he calls it, when he is screaming for "torrents of blood" beyond 1794, and "Death to the Bourgeiose," who are who, if not the parents of little girls dressed for Sunday school. Hence, Anastasia screamed in vain," but if you want to do this to little girls, I am afraid you will have war from us, and would perhaps even from Martin Luther King, before we sit by as pacifists. Unlike Mohammed or Moses, Jesus sets aside the severity of the law. For the "Evangelicals, Baptists and those who try to rely on scripture rather than corrupt tradition, the word of God says "Moses says…but I say…" That is, the fact that the Bible is the word of God does not mean what we think it means, and I do not think the Bible anywhere teaches this, except to say that every word of scripture is inspired (spoke before there even was a New Testament). Here is an example: The Bible, which is the word of God, says that the word of God "was in the beginning." The Jews teach that this is the Torah, and we too try to say that the New Testament "was in the beginning," but this is not quite what it says. There is in fact no Biblical teaching that the Bible is the "word of God" in the sense that it would be refuted if Moses said one thing and Jesus another. Moses says stone the Adulteress, but we say, not that you have not sinned or that there is no sin, but "go and sin no more."
Our Flag is Honored To Be Burned…
November 29, 2016 December 3, 2016 mmcdonald72014 Leave a comment
…and the smoke goes up, where it clinches the argument for Liberty. Our soldiers fought and died in war to guarantee the communists and other Anti-Amerikans the liberty to burn the flag as a form of symbolic speech. So it gives up its body to secure its meaning, and for 230 years has roughly succeeded. No other in the world is like it in this way…yea, "Shall not perish from this earth."
This is obviously a constitutionally protected form of symbolic speech. Where no one else's rights are being violated and fire safety observed, must be allowed.
There are many interesting turns of this question which make it a good one for understanding the constitution in general. I could not legally bun the flag because I do not intend the symbolic speech intended by those who do so. The laws against flag desecration are constitutional too, so that I could be ticketing for leaving one in the rain or letting it touch the ground. I could bun a Confederate flag, however. This flag can appear as a decoration and even a statement of treason or in a theoretical statement, as in the "Ethno-State" of Mr. America First. The same arguments as those that pertain to the Smith Act apply here. But if it appears as a statement of territory or political sovereignty, like the flag on a bank or school, I believe we can take it down by force, properly applied. I sometimes wonder at the Southerners slow to get the news of the result of the Civil War. Yet I think property rights would prevent one from burning someone else's flag, unless one were in a state where the property rights of the other do not apply.
The use of flag desecration laws to prohibit the symbolic speech of flag burning is, then, a bit like the use of laws forbidding parading without a permit to arrest Martin Luther King Jr, just before he wrote his classic Letter From A Birmingham Jail. The law is constitutional, but parading is not what is occurring, and everyone knows it. But that is why we have judges, to see and to apply the law and the Constitution.
If Mr. Trumpster had read even the most basic documents and done a poor course of 101 American politics, he would have sense enough not to say such things as that flag burners should be deprived of citizenship. He is a tyrant, and will show worse, because he must act from his gut, since he literally does not know what he is doing, despite having aimed at the presidency for many years. His tyranny began to appear in the choice of Mr. flag anti-Bannon comments Bright Bart, then he became more careful when he saw the reaction and realized the election could be overturned.
The talk of recounts and the electoral college may have already saved lives among the opposition in Syria. If we did one thing there, it might be to get the civilians out, and let the Russians have their civil war between the charmers Assad and ISIS. We seem to have tried to get some people out during the cease fire. But this is a Taoist or Aikido-type tactic, to properly recede.
Does it not seem that builders of the pipeline should have gone around the Sioux land? Are we to begin the next administration with another violation of treaty rights, and perhaps even another violent massacre, just so that all the sins of history might be repeated in the end times? One thing very disturbing to me is when the government is about to forcibly remove the protesters from federal land and says it is for the welfare of the protesters. That is maybe the third time I have heard that line, that government intrusion is for our welfare and benefit. An example is when the echo on my phone indicated that it was being tapped by a mobile unit through the cell phone tower, and I went outside to read my license plate and two county cars were there on the road. They too assured me they were there "for my welfare." At first I was, like, good someone is taking care of me. But then I realized that it was a lie, and that if they cared at all especially about my mental welfare, they would not be spying on me, and if any trustworthy power wanted to know anything they would ask me. Today, I was trying to comment on a constitution website (though I am not allowed to do so because I am not "on" Facebook and will not give them information). My comments to my Representative are signed by the owner of the computer, because it has decided who I am. Oh, yea, and of course the matter has been reported and no one cares. My cursor began to misbehave, and then a square sign came over my sentence that said "Anti-Bannon," as though someone were flagging things in the comments and accidentally left the flag visible to the writer. Sue, we can trust the government and the elections!
What is the connection? Our government will no more respect the treaty rights of the Sioux than they will respect the social contract made with each of the citizens, because we have not insisted that they uphold their side of the agreement and obey the fundamental law that is the Bill of Rights. We are about to get the tyranny we have allowed to occur, and if one thinks it is just those other people that are about to be trampled, Dietrich Bonhoeffer will tell you, by the time they came for him, there was no one left to help.
I won't even try to do anything about the anti-Bannon flag- no one cares. No one cared when they stuck a virus on my box claiming top destroy my hard drive, apparently for reading the article "So, Trump was a Putin Puppet after all."
Michigan Recount: No Reason?
Rona Romney is again on the radio saying there is no reason for a recount in Michigan. One wonders why she even speaks, as the vote was so close, and there are eighty thousand ballots where no vote was cast for president at all, double the number of the previous year. The media does not want to consider the broader, more conspiratorial question of interference through the internet by Russia and Bright Bart, using spy tech and the same manipulation of voters as is used in marketing. Russia has demonstrated the intention and an overt act, in leaking the e-mails from the DNC, and we would ask Mr. Bright Bart under oath to describe what he did to achieve voter suppression, as in Pennsylvania. But add to the list of reasons that Rona sounds very insincere, though that has not cost the Republicans any votes of late.
The reason for a recount is very broad, and no one is talking about it, perhaps because it sounds like a conspiracy theory, or requires a broad comprehensive view. Like conspiracy theories, it is annoying because we do not know that it is not so, and so requires us to think in a comprehensive way. The Russian intention and ability have been demonstrated, and are publicly acknowledged. The recount is only the beginning, and the first way to introduce the thought that something is very wrong about this and other elections lately. Again, we expect the main interference to have occurred through the spy-marketing system we have all come to accept in the past year, with absolutely no oversight or recourse when these powers are abused. The idea of elections belongs to the old, pre-internet world, and we have not yet adjusted to find a place for political liberty.
Bank Security and Fraud
As one might expect, a little trip to the bank is not for me as uneventful as it may be for most. Today, I took in a stack of Capital One junk mail to the bank for them to dispose of, since I cannot do anything with them, throw them away or burn them, and do not have time to either shred them or money to buy a shredder. The bank denies responsibility for them, but it says Visa right on them, they gave me the visa, and then suddenly all these marketers have my numbers. Real mail gets mixed up with these, especially for us old guys who have to find glasses. The bank had just switched our credit cards to Mastercard, and we were compelled to call using our "primary phone" to activate the card. They would not allow us to activate the card in person- a big red flag. Then the report came on NPR that the activation companies are selling the numbers, at least some numbers and in at least one instance. I had complained because our phones go through the Philippines, and a tyranny has taken over in the Philippines, as it will soon here if we do not overturn this election. And #3, in order to do business over the phone, they require the first five digits of the social security number, for which we often give out the last four digits, over the phone, and all the phones are tapped, hacked and spy-marketed. I reported this to the FBI, and was told before being hung up on that I should "document this." Small wonder the Wells-Fargo scam went on so long, since many people complained. I think my name and number are flagged by the FBI receptionist as one of those frequent callers who thinks they see things and reports them. They are being paid and I am not. I am correct and they are wrong. They hang up on me. Ditto for Congress, where I then reported the matter and asked if they could not see the need for proper regulation. They too are being paid, by both the citizens and the campaign contributors, who include the banks, so nothing will be done, at least until like the Wells-Fargo scam it hits the media and embarrasses them. Again, regulations are so that companies do not have to scam in order to compete, but can focus on making money off the value of their products, rather than the prostitution of their customers, who can go elsewhere for more of the same or do without. The regulation of commerce is a power given in Article One of the Constitution to Congress precisely to prevent this sort of thing, which has now taken over every part of our economy. Since scams do not produce value, and even detract value, our economy tanks or suffers the drag, as from a parasite, and no one can figure out why.
This circumstance shows some of the reasons that America is tottering on the brink of tyranny. One simply cannot allow infinite spy and scam marketing, regardless of who is being paid, because it will destroy our nation. Two years ago, I wrote that the Bill of rights must be adapted to the internet and imposed by the United States, or the alternative is universal tyranny. This is mathematical, and the only question is how in particular this will take place. I did not suspect that they would have such success interfering with the election, so that our literal tyranny might come in January of 2017. No one on the T.V. will even raise the question of Russian and Bright Bart spy marketing and voter suppression. But it all started when we refused to limit telemarketing and junk mail. So, why is the "activation company" so interested in my "primary phone." Are we brain dead from Oxy yet?
So, what if we started a movement where all the junk mail sent us as a result of Visa etc. having our information were simply set on the counter at the bank? If only one percent of the people did this with only the Capital One/ Visa false mailings (one is not really "pre-approved") the ability of the Banks to shred this fecal matter would be overwhelmed, and they just may stop abusing our mail and the information they compel us to give them in order to have a bank account and function.
Yes, lets start a movement! WordPress limits my readers access through the search engines, so we will have to do this by word-of-mouth, but let us all, instead of giving them our time by shredding this garbage, use our time to protest by returning these to the bank. I would take them straight to Visa, but I cannot find their desk, though the bank surely can.
Brexit election Fraud? And what of the Primaries?
We have been amused lately at the likelihood of a Russian attempt, through their internet superiority, to direct elections in the West, and it now occurs to us to check these other votes in which the fascist right surprisingly seems to have done so well. Putin is of course a nationalist or fascist, right wing tyrant as opposed to a left wing or communist tyrant, and his relation say to Stalinism is not clear at all. The Brexit vote, like the Republican primaries, were a bit of a surprise. While I do not understand the British issue, we think Liberty does better when Britain is alone, but the Liberty does better in Europe from the participation of this, the Mother of all modern Western free nations. But to return. We have been purposely obtuse or voluntarily ignorant regarding the spy and marketing technologies, because these companies make a lot of money in the short term, and give some to Congress to grease their path. We have railed nearly alone for two years on related issues. What Putin may have discovered is that he can lead the West about by effecting the waves of the body politic, buying and selling his influence, and the capacity to turn elections. This would mean that the rise of the right is manufactured, a marketing ploy, a "run it up the flagpole and see if anyone salutes, or rather, hire a bunch of cheerleaders to direct the mob like a school of fish. We also suspect him in the Oxy scandal, in which American doctors mysteriously overprescribed the opioid to lead the Americans toward delirium and the heroin dealer. This is a win-win for both the Russian and the American mob. The Oxy scandal seems also to have served to prep us for the election fraud, and now the Donald wants to deregulate the Oxy-type businesses.
If these things were occurring, we would not know, and so yes, someone besides me should be considering it. Again, we are appealing to the electors to cast their votes accordingly, if it appears that were orchestrated election fraud through the intentional manipulation of the body politic, and this is documented to have occurred in the leak regarding the DNC and in the false news, as well as the voter suppression I seem to remember an NPR report attributing to Mr. Bright Bart platform boy. The reason for appealing to the electors is that these unimagined things may be as legal as the internet spying and marketing that all admit we have allowed to occur. Perhaps by the next election, we will wise up.
We are able to think of these possibilities because these are the sorts of things that tyrants do. There is no good reason to hand the world over to them, especially when all we need do is sit, stand, and perhaps lie down. These people think that they are very smart, using their calculative intellect to serve their goals of wealth and power. We can beat these people, with integrity and comprehensive thought, but we have to do it. It will not do itself, but it may only be the application of the law and the activity of the "better angels of our nature," as Ken Berns recently cited Abe Lincoln. But they are chess players, and have anticipated some of our moves, perhaps better than the Donald seems to have anticipated the recount, after tying the hands of the Democrats with that pledge to honor even fraudulent results, and having himself been promised the election by Putin and Bright-boy. The FBI is governed by Ms. Lynch and Barack, although half will be Trumpsters sucking up for a job in the new administration. Hence, we have called for Congressional oversight of the Executive agencies by both Congress and President, even using the WHO if necessary.
Recount: Election Fraud Update
Jill Stein has filed the papers to begin a recount of the votes in Wisconsin, and recounts will follow in other swing states. Ignoring the publicly acknowledged Russian involvement in the leak of DNC e-mails, and the publicly acknowledged attempts of Bright Bart and others to spread false news stories and suppress voter turnout in key areas, Rona Romney assures us that there is no reason for a Michigan recount. No indication of anything wrong at all in the elections, all the Republicans will be saying." Of course, we may then simply be recounting the fraudulently cast votes. These people are chess players, and have surely thought out this move, and many others, ahead of time. But it is worth checking, and Jill Stein has reminded the nation that one is not quite President elect until the meeting of the Electoral College on December 19. The main reason, Ms. Romney, for a recount is the same as the reason for withholding the electors or for responsible electors to change their vote. While physical manipulation of votes would be obviously illegal, the internet manipulation of votes by a foreign power may not even yet be illegal, and may be impossible to detect, especially for us, if our computer security allowed this occur to begin. But the electors can survey the whole circumstance, and change their vote if only they do not trust the Russian involvement and the Russian interests exposed already. The electors can still fill their originally intended constitutional role of preventing tyranny, and we encourage them to do so. Since the Donald does not know what he is doing anyway, and all his intellectual content that is politically legitimate, aiming at the common good, is coming from the Republicans anyway, the United States has little to lose if we simply rid ourselves of this potential disaster. Sorry, Donald, its nothing personal, just business. But if we do not, we and the rest of the world may indeed have everything to lose.
This election was fraudulently turned by the Russians working through the internet spying and marketing system that includes Facebook and Kaspersky, and other things like that. We could not reason it out ahead of time, but it is impossible to have free elections and free government any longer if we are going to be so slavish about spying and marketing. While there are some Trump supporters, those that surprised the pollsters may not exist at all. The truth may be that we have been reasoning backward, assuming that the election was fair, and hence taking the assumed results to be the near fifty percent "mandate" that the Trumpsters would like. It is hard to tell the difference between 46 and 51% by looking out one's window. But America is not that course yet. We have called for the actuaries to consider the popular vote in comparison with the swing states, and it was reported last Friday on NPR that computer scientists had some questions, and that a Prof from Washington suggested the electoral college turn the election, as we would for one revealed to be an axe murderer between the election and the meeting of the college. The Donald was looking quite fascist in his appointments until this became a public issue, then suddenly he loves the Jews and is back peddling on all his fascist plans that had so encouraged that 10-25 % of what is now the Republican party, the one half of the Republicans who support him and are not concerned about his openness to fascist proposals.
When the Republicans saw the reaction to the hiring of Mr. "platform for the Alt-Right," the Donald quickly went public about his Jewish Son in Law and his support for Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. He is not himself a literal Nazi. Nazism is one kind of fascism, while there are other kinds. Twentieth Century Totalitarianism is an anti-Biblical thing, as evidenced in the strange hatred of Hitler for the Jews. We say, as an hypothesis, "That was the book of Daniel. This may be the Revelation." This may well be the sort of tyranny that pertains to the end times. The tyranny of the Antichrist will be anti-Christian, and this does not exclude the possibility that for a while it appear "Christian." The "Evangelicals" have lined right up, with a few exceptions, behind the promised Trail of Tears and indiscriminate war in the Middle East. The Jews may have been the object in World War Two, the Christians and Muslims in III. Trump will use the hatred of the Jews for Islam, and the outgroups targeted by American "White guy" fascism will be the Moslems, the blacks and the Mexicans, at least at first. Again, we think that Trump himself is not quite a Klansman like Mr. Spencer or a Nazi like David Duke. But his openness and tolerance for the treasonous advocates of the "Ethno-state" seems to have inspired the world-wide encouragement of fascism, as in France. He does not really understand treason, and this fact might be argued in his defense at his impeachment trial in the Senate, should the recall fail and the electors remain "faithful." It is the same Republican self interest that led to his election as that Republican self-interest which will lead to his impeachment, when it dawns upon 60% of Congress that this is fascism and not really what they had in mind. If they are not too late, we may then have President Pence. If we are too late, we will have civil strife, foreign war and the beginnings of the devolution of the Union back into states, as sanctuary cities will protect the innocents he intends to harm by setting them on his Trail of Tears.
The goal of Putin is to get America into self-destructive civil conflict and even a third world war against all of Islam, so that he may take Europe, and if possible, seize the arms of the United States, which he does not even need to possess if he can but direct them. This circumstance is so obvious and so dangerous that responsible electors very well might change their votes. But Putin is having his way with us, as he and the extreme right, the KKK, will have their way with the Trumpster. The Republicans think they can control Trump, but they are mistaken. If, between the election and the electoral college, it should become agreed that the President Elect were an axe murderer, the electors would change their vote- though one does wonder about these "Republicans." A Million American lives lost in a needless war may hang in the balance, and they are still knee-jerks, and these are understatements. I have told two Trumpsters, "you will send your son/grandson out in a brownshirt and receive him home in a box for a war we did not need to fight." Again, ISIS seems easy, but Putin plans to see to it that we are ensnared, and our own stupidity regarding Islam would be enough to ensnare us. One is reminded of the word "republic" in the old title of the U.S.S.R. There is a similarity between the use of speech in propaganda and in shysterism. Treason, too, has become difficult for them to understand if they but see dollar signs or despise Hillary. Unlike Trump, Hillary is not a crook, does not change opinions according to her advantage, and will not say and do anything to market her brand, and, contrary to the National Enquirer, is not in league with Russia.
The Donald seems very worried even about a recount. As I have written, it does seem to me that someone promised him the election, and that Steve Bannon has been rewarded. The Americans do not see what is at stake, and barely know the difference anymore between tyranny and liberty, the KKK and the thought of Thomas Jefferson. But Emmitt Till knows the difference.
Violence in these matters will not work, but is guaranteed to occur if the Electoral College is called upon and fails. They can get us to strike one another, but no one can find the persons doing these things. It is our own defects, though, that make us vulnerable to it, just as the border will remain porous without a revolution in the integrity of border patrols, their profit motive and their example. As St. Martin taught, sit down! stand up!!But I myself would lie down in the freeway before Mr. Bright Bart, Steve Bannon, were allowed to enter Washington unopposed. So I suppose I draw the line when the platform provider for the "Ethno-state" becomes Chief of Staff and is to enter Washington. Our own State, to0o, may choose to remain under the U. S. Constitution, as may many others, once it becomes clear what these powers have in mind. And need we warn them not strike women and children in our presence? And to be equal, they may add the gentlemen. American Government indeed has checks and balances.
Yeah Jill Stein! Yeah American Constitution! Lets now awaken, and find this all to have been a bad dream, even like the Wizard of Oz, with the man behind the curtain exposed and Dorothy back in Kansas!

Q: Classic asp insert using SQL Server 2008 stored proc says I either have too many parameters, or the parameter was not specified It's been a long time since I did any classic asp work, but was recently asked to pick up a project that someone else had been working on which was a mess.
The site has a SQL Server 2008 database at the back end and I need to add a record and retrieve the auto identity column as an out parameter.
My asp code is shown here...
Call fncOpenData()
Set cmd = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
Set cmd.ActiveConnection = oConn
cmd.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
cmd.CommandText = "usp_ins_MyRecord"
cmd.Parameters.Refresh
cmd.Parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter("@MyValue", adVarChar, adParamInput, 10)
cmd.Parameters("@MyValue") = Request.Form("MyValue")
cmd.Execute

and my stored procedure was created with the code here...
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO

CREATE PROCEDURE usp_ins_MyRecord
    @MyValue    varchar(10)
AS
BEGIN
    INSERT INTO [MyRecords]
    (
        [MyValue]
    )
    VALUES
    (
        @MyValue
    )
END
GO

Now, when I run my asp page I get the following error...

"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Procedure or function
  usp_ins_MyRecord has too many arguments specified.
/MyPage.asp, line ..."

If I remove the line
cmd.Parameters.Refresh

I get the following error...

"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Procedure or function
  'usp_ins_MyRecord' expects parameter '@MyValue', which was not
  supplied.
/MyPage.asp, line ..."

Erm, yes it was?!
If I change my code in any other way to add the parameter, such as
cmd.Parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter("@MyValue", adVarChar, adParamInput, 10, Request.Form("MyValue")

or
myValue = Request.Form("MyValue")
Set param = cmd.CreateParameter("@MyValue", advarchar, adParamInput, 10)
cmd.Parameters.Append param
param.Value = myValue

I get the same error as before, stating the parameter wasn't specified?
I know the technology is dated and really wish I could use .Net but this is what I have to use, but I'm pulling my hair out here and getting nowhere fast.
Can anyone see what's wrong, or explain why I'm having trouble getting ASP to use SQL Server 2008 stored procs?
Thanks.

A: The Refresh method from the ADODB Parameters collection automatically adds the parameters from the stored procedure to your command.
Either use Refresh or add the parameters separately using CreateParameter.

If the provider will allow, you can populate the Parameters Collection by using the Refresh method. In fact, if you try to access this collection while it is empty or before you have called Refresh for the first time, ADO will automatically call Refresh to populate the collection. It is more efficient to provide the parameters, rather than having to call and obtain this information from the provider. (Anything you can do to reduce calls to the provider will improve performance.) You can add Parameter objects using the Append property.

Ref:
http://www.devguru.com/technologies/ado/quickref/command_parameterscollection.html
UPDATE
You should could also try to remove the @ sign when you create your parameter.
cmd.Parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter("MyValue", adVarChar, adParamInput, 10, Request.Form("MyValue"))

A: I was in an identical situation in almost every way...including why I was working with Classic ASP and the flipping between error messages.
The accepted response was helpful in deciding not to use "cmd.Parameters.Refresh"
OK so why was I getting the "expects parameter" error when it clearly was there?
In my case...the line where I was creating the parameter was missing a part for the CreateParameter call:
I had:
cmd.Parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter("@PoNum", 3, 1, PONum) 'adInteger = 3, adInputParam = 1
Incorrectly I was thinking I didn't need to specify a size for an integer.
Size zero seems to work though...
So things began to work correctly when I put zero in for the size.
cmd.Parameters.Append cmd.CreateParameter("@PoNum", 3, 1, 0,PONum) 'adInteger = 3, adInputParam = 1
Sorry I wasn't using the adxxxxx constants...I inherited some code here and I couldn't easily convert to using those constants...because all through the code, some of those necessary constants where used as variables.  I can't wait to get back to DotNet.

A: Try a simpler way of executing stored procedure within asp classic code using ADODB.Connection rather than ADODB.Command...
Set con = Server.CreateObject( "ADODB.Connection" )
con.Open oConn

sql = "exec usp_ins_MyRecord @myValue='" & somevalue & "'"
Set RS = con.execute(sql)

Then add a line into stored procedure to get the identity back of recently added record
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO

CREATE PROCEDURE usp_ins_MyRecord
    @MyValue    varchar(10)
AS
BEGIN
    INSERT INTO [MyRecords]
    (
        [MyValue]
    )
    VALUES
    (
        @MyValue
    )

SELECT @@identity AS recordid
END
GO

Then you can pull that back from recordset
IF NOT RS.EOF THEN
  myRecordid = RS("recordid")
END IF


Secret locations in the first maze of the game.
To find this secret you want to head out the wooden plank area straight across from the elevator.
From there you want to head foward until you reach a Left which you should then take.
Afterwards its just a simple job of hanging another Left and then one more Right, after that just Follow down that hall.
The door should look like the image provided and have no number plate, just walk in and grab that cool, crisp, confidential file which will net you an extra on the main menu.
This one is a little bit trickier with the directions.
First off you want to take the right out of the starting area, breaking those boards.
Next take the 2nd right that you see down that hallway. Afterwards you want to take a Double Left, Double Right. (Double meaning a left then another left, or right then another right when possible).
Finally take a Left followed by Three Rights, the last right should be a right into a door, that door opens to the secret.
The door should look like this.
Grab that sweet, succulent, papyrus folder and celebrate, heck why not let those monkeys celebrate with you! You don't need to win to keep the secrets anyways!
Some doors may have a shiny veil covering their door knob, or no number plate on them at all.
Some of these doors contain monkeys just trying to pump out their youtube content but get interupted by your screams of pain and bloody murder, or waiting for their date who most likely stood them up, causing them to pop their heads out.
1 like equals 1 less monkey stood up by their date.


The Predictive Index® was founded more than six decades ago, and in all that time, our mission has not changed. Our passion, inherited from our founder, is to solve business problems through the lens of understanding individuals. Our quest, like yours, is to discover how to impact that behavior, ignite their enthusiasm, and match each role to the right person.
Since 1955 we have honed the wisdom, guidance, and tools that help you inspire your employees to be their most productive and engaged.
The Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment™ was created through a normative sample of thousands of people and has since been the subject of nearly 500 validation studies. It has received continual updates and today represents a well-established, business-relevant, and scientifically proven measure of behavioral tendencies in the workplace.
Our scientifically validated methodology is applicable for companies and organizations of all types, from Fortune 100 to family-owned businesses.
The Predictive Index® delivers valuable insights into workplace behaviors and skills.
The PI Behavioral Assessment™ is more than your standard-fare personality test. It identifies and categorizes workplace motivating drivers to provide deep insights into the behaviors and motivations of your colleagues and employees. This source of unbiased insight drastically improves empathy,communication, and collaboration on your teams.
By measuring four factors of a person's personality — Dominance, Extraversion, Patience, and Formality — the Predictive Index Behavioral Assessment™ helps you shine a light on an employee or job candidate's core drivers,mapping their specific behavioral pattern. This easy-to-use, science-based framework provides actionable insight into employee needs, behaviors,motivations and development areas.
When coupled with PI's Job Assessment™, the Behavioral Assessment™ helps you ensure you hire the right person for the job.
In September 2018, the PI Behavioral Assessment™ was certified by third-party reviewers from DNV-GL who reviewed the assessment under the in-depth standards defined by the European Federation of Psychologists' Associations' (EFPA) Test Review Model.
The EFPA developed the Test Review Model to provide a rigorous, standardized review of psychological assessment instruments so that consumers can make informed decisions about the quality and utility of the instruments.
To earn this certification, researchers at PI spent more than 600 hours collecting documentation, running analyses, and drafting the submission that was reviewed by the DNV-GL experts.
PI's submission also included extensive technical documentation supporting the validity, reliability, and fairness of the PI Behavioral Assessment.
Wenn Führungskräfte ihre Mitarbeiter "richtig" motivieren, bringen die Teams "besondere" Leistung. Geben Sie Ihrem Team Unterstützung zu effektiver Kommunikation und besserem gegenseitigem Verständnis.
Schlechtes Management und falsches Personal sind bekanntlich die Hauptursache für schlechte Verkaufsergebnisse. Gehen Sie an die Wurzel Ihres Problems! PI® bietet die Lösung!
Galagan ADVISORY® has been a leading certified partner of the Predictive Index® since 2013.
Before you hire, you should know exactly what you're looking for.
Did you know that according to a study by Leadership IQ, 46% of newly-hired employees fail within 18 months? This creates a huge disconnect for hiring managers trying to match real people to job descriptions. Most of us cross that chasm by relying on "good instinct" and pay the price down the road. There's a better way to evaluate candidates — one that's built on proven science and focuses not solely on tasks and skills but on the behavioral traits and cognitive abilities that will ensure a candidate will succeed in the new role: PI Job Assessments™ and PI Job Targets™.
The PI Job Assessment™ helps you move beyond the traditional hiring process of job descriptions and resumes, improving your ability to match real people to job descriptions. This helps ensure a candidate will succeed in a new role, saving a lot of frustration, expense, and inefficiency down the road.
The PI Cognitive Assessment™ measures our capacity to learn, adapt, and quickly grasp new concepts in the workplace. Most commonly used during the hiring process, cognitive ability assessments are proven predictors of training success and job performance across all job levels and industries.
When you understand cognitive ability, you are better able to choose employees who are best matched to the role you have — who will learn quickly and independently where required, and who are able to meet and exceed performance expectations.
The PI Cognitive Assessment™ is a scientifically validated measure of general mental agility — modeled on strict standards of test construction set by professional organizations such as the APA (American Psychological Association), SIOP (Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology), and the ITC (International Test Commission).
Galagan ADVISORY® has been a leading Certified Partner of the Predictive Index since 2013.

Children in Crisis:
- the absence of the right to education in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Japan
by Kyoko Aizawa. Otherwise Japan
(with special thanks to Janie Spencer)
The school system in Japan is rife with problems, from teachers using physical violence to student bullying.
The Japanese government education monopoly has created this terrible situation. Japanese parents need the right to choose the form of education their children receive free from discrimination against children and families who choose alternatives. If we do not obtain these rights, many more children in Japan will hide in their homes for the rest of their lives or even commit suicide.
Currently, we do not have the right to choose alternatives to the National Curriculum. Far too often the government education monopoly confines children who have encountered serious problems at schools and makes them ill. Many later become adults without overcoming their difficulties. Tragically, some even commit suicide.
The Tokyo Times, (May 10, 2001) said that in Japan the number of such voluntary 'shut-ins' are thought to be more than one million.
"Mom strangles her 13 year son with skipping rope" last year (The son refused to go to school, shut himself in his home and used violence to his mother. His mother believed "He should return to school." Confused with his violence and killed her son)
"On November 30, a 14-year-old girl leaped onto the railway and died"
"On December 6, a 16-year-old boy hanged himself because he was the victim of repeated bullying"
"Shut-in says he killed family because they took his space" 1
Even The Herald printed a story about problems in the Japanese education system:
'Is Japanese education killing its young pupils?'2
Families are ashamed if a child stops going to school. Children, who can't face going to school due to school refusal or school phobia, are discriminated against in Japanese society yet the number of such children is, huge as the headlines show:
'Truants dip 0.01% to123,000' 3
Because many Japanese do not know that alternatives exist, they think that education equals schooling. Japanese parents feel stuck between the proverbial rock and a hard place. Even if their children are confronted with terrible problems in schools, most parents do not know they should have the right to educate their children according to their (the parents') wishes in consideration of the best interests of the child.
Japanese law
Our Constitution states that children have the right to an education. The Constitution and the Fundamental Education Law both state: "Citizens shall be obliged to ensure that all boys and girls under their protection receive a standard education as provided for by law." Nothing stipulates where this education ought to take place, or what standard education is.
However, Article 26 of the Constitution states: All people shall have the right to receive an equal education corresponding to their ability, as provided for by law. All people shall be obliged to have all boys and girls under their protection receive ordinary education as provided for by law. Such compulsory education shall be free.
We have an education law on the one hand and a school education law on the other. In accordance with the Constitution, we have to obey the lower law, which effectively means we have to obey the school education law. This states that parents "have an obligation to see that their children attend school" from the age of 6 to 15. So we do not have any alternative ways to educate our children other than by sending them to school.
In May, 2003 the Japan Federation of Bar Associations presented an Alternative Report to the Second Report of the Japanese Government on the Convention on the Rights of the Child, to the Committee on the Rights of the Child.4
In its report Freedom to choose forms of education, establish and direct educational institutions, the report says:
"In its last report, JFBA suggested, places of education should not be limited to schools; rather, alternative forms of education such as home based education, i.e. learning at home, should be approved in spite of which there have been no changes to Japan's educational system."
Article 29 Paragraph 2 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child stipulates, "No part of the present Article or Article 28 shall be construed so as to interfere with the liberty of individuals and bodies to establish and direct educational institutions, subject always to the observance of the principle set forth in Paragraph 1 of the present Article and to the requirement that education given in such institutions shall conform to such minimum standards as may be laid down by the State."
This guarantees the freedom to establish educational institutions under certain fixed requirements. However, in Japan, places of general education are limited to schools as provided under Article 1 of the School Education Law and all school education must be conducted according to the Courses of Study officially announced by the Ministry of Education. Furthermore, textbooks, which have passed screening by the Ministry, must be used, limiting both the freedom to establish schools and parental choice over forms of education.
The Government Report, the Committee on the Rights of the Child expressed various concerns about Japan's education program. They noted as problematic that developmental disorders and a significant number of school phobia cases due to stress were brought on by an acutely competitive educational system, lack of time for leisure, physical activities and rest.
In Japan anyone seeking to exercise a right to alternative education is still faced with major legal obstacles, because of the School Education Law which provides for fines for those who fail to obey. In addition, if children do not follow the National Curriculum they have difficulty in accessing higher education.
School refusers and their treatment
In 2004 123,000 elementary and junior high school students were absent
from school for 30 days or longer in the 2004 school year, down about
3,000 from the previous year, the education ministry said. The headlines read:
'Truants dip 0.01-point to 123,000''3
Despite a 3,000 decline, there were still 123,000 children who refused to attend class. Officials from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology attributed the decline to an improved support system for children struggling with school, but added they would continue to work toward eliminating the problem.
Many school refusers lose their self-confidence and hide in their homes, which is why so many children in Japan withdraw from society into the home. Children who don't go to school are sometimes treated as if they have had mental breakdowns and given drugs such as Ritalin and Haloperidol! The Mainichi Shinbun published a story about the death of a girl who was given Ritalin because she did not go to school.6
The same newspaper revealed that the Government has tried to hide the fact that drugs like haloperidol have mortally harmful side effects. The Mainichi article began:
"A staggering 127 people died over a four-year period from the side effects of mental illness drugs, a figure the government knew but failed to reveal, the Mainichi learned Tuesday. See: Government hid massive scale of mental drug deaths." (Jan. 21, 2003)7
In my opinion many of them are not mentally ill, but they are tired and stressed by school, in most cases due to violence from teachers or pupils or the pressure of the school system itself.
'Free schools' in 'Structural Reform Specified Areas'
In a long line of government policies aimed at helping the failing school system in Japan without, of course, ever changing the standard National Curriculum requirements, 'free schools' are being created. But these are really refuges for children who refuse to go to school. Children who simply can't face going to school, who are afraid to go to school because of bullying and violence, attend such "free schools.
Every child has to be enrolled at a National school, even if he or she goes to a 'free school'. The exception is a few schools established by a recent Special Reform law. In Structural Reform Specified Areas, NPOs can set up schools for children and students who are recognised as having been absent from school for a considerable period of time due to difficulty in adapting to school life, or for those children who are recognised as in need of special educational guidance, due to developmental problems such as considerable learning or behavioural difficulties. These schools are intended to offer an education that copes with the special needs of these children, if an existing school in the relevant area does not offer such an education.
As long as I read article 13 of the law, so-called free schools set up by Structural Reform Special Areas are no different than schools for children with special needs. It is shameful to put children who would learn better outside schools or who can't handle the violence of bullying or corporal punishment by teachers in the same category as children with learning problems and vice versa.
Government support for learning in the home?
In June 2000, the Education Ministry's Lifelong Education Council touched on the need to support learning in the home "in cases of chronic truancy". However, the ministry has not abandoned its position that it is against the law for parents to educate their children at home.
On May 14, 2005 one newspaper announced that the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MECSST) would grant around 100,000,000 yen (about £560,000) to a committee to create a special curriculum for children who refuse to go to schools. This curriculum is meant to be an effective way for school refusers to learn.
In my research I discovered that the so-called 'free schools' are actually members of this committee! Thus, I believe they are not really interested in supporting either free, alternative or home based education, but have their own agenda: the creation of their schools. Any viable committee which is really dedicated to helping children learn, without discrimination, should be composed of disinterested members with the children's needs in mind.
On May 20, 2005, the newspaper announced that MECSST started discussing the possible approval of a program to recognise children learning at 'free schools' and at home as fulfilling the compulsory schooling requirement.
So far, 'free schools' do not have to follow the National Curriculum. But the Compulsory Education Special Session of the Central Council for Education has developed a way to control 'free schools' as well as children learning at home. They tell parents and children that by following the special curriculum for children who refuse to go to school, they will be able to receive a diploma from the compulsory school.
Because of the substantive lack of the right to education (as opposed to schooling) in Japan, children face serious problems, including:
the harmful effects of drugs like Ritalin and haloperidol
pressure to attend school (for children as well as the whole family)
the risk of being sent to institutions
being labelled as potential offenders and/or mentally ill
being faced with dire options like committing a crime or suicide
restricted access to jobs and higher education
It is difficult to support children's rights without the legal right to alternatives to the standard National Curriculum and standard schools. The number of children who don't go to school, the number of individuals who withdraw from society and seclude themselves at home and the number of suicides would decrease if people knew their rights and could exercise them to educate their children.
We need the right to a non-destructive education and to educate children outside the national school system.
We need alternatives to standardised education to help children and adults who withdraw from society. We need to give them choices and access to learning and to society.

No Cause For Pain

Following a brief window of panic early in October, parents of young students with disabilities can breathe more easily, according to legal experts.
The Department of Education announced Oct. 20 it rescinded 72 guidance documents the department termed "outdated, unnecessary or ineffective" related to the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) and the Rehabilitation Act. The announcement caused immediate concern among families of special-needs children and disability advocate groups because of the department's lack of more detailed explanation.
In the weeks since, disability advocacy groups have analyzed the rescinded documents and concluded they are all outdated, unnecessary or superseded. For now, the key concern left seems to be the need for transparency from the Department of Education.
"It doesn't really change the equation," said Jack Robinson, a special education attorney and partner at Spies Powers & Robinson. "I think that more of the outrage was with … just the way that [the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services] went about it." Although the Department of Education provided clarification on the guidance changes a few days after its initial announcement, the changes actually went into effect Oct. 2, meaning the department did not announce them until more than two weeks later.

Dear colleagues and university staff!
Today I want to use the opportunity and once again congratulate everyone on the last anniversary of our beloved university. This entire year was marked by the 140th anniversary, our rich history and ambitious plans for the future.
And in this regard, I want to wish TSU – and to all of us – not only to maintain the same strong positions but also to continuously improve them without losing quality.
We are spending a very busy year in which there were events dedicated to the TSU 140thanniversary, serious scientific work, and educational innovations. In the outgoing 2018, the university found new strong partners with whom I hope to implement very important projects that will improve our life and the life of humanity in general. And our plans for the next year are no less ambitious.
This winter, the University Grove is decorated in the style of the Winter Universiade, and I invite you to spend the holidays very actively. Rest, walk, and spend time with your family. Happy New Year!
