Civilization & Its Malcontents
How Soviet Disinformation Infected the West & What the West Can Do About It
On Tuesday, July 25, 1978, Romanian-born Ion Mihai Pacepa ('e-YOHN MEE-hai pa-CHEP-a') crossed the small outer lobby of the United States Embassy in Bonn, West Germany, and made his way toward the Marine officer standing guard, arms across his chest, at the door to the entrance. The son of a devout Christian mother, the intelligence veteran had sworn to himself upon being drafted into the Securitate (Romanian secret police) that he would never take part in a political killing. For 27 years he had lived with the running nightmare that, at some point, assassination orders would land on his plate. The previous Saturday, the dreaded moment had arrived.
Now was the time to break with the evil system that had controlled his entire adult life. In spite of his resolve, though, the physical steps were proving harder than the mental ones. Keeping his voice as low as possible, he spoke directly to the Marine. "I am a Soviet bloc two-star intelligence general, and I want to defect to the United States."
Three days later, in the pre-dawn darkness of Friday, July 28, General Pacepa boarded a military plane at U.S. Rhein-Main Air Base, bound for Washington, D.C. Aside from the clothes he was wearing, his worldly possessions consisted of the paperwork confirming President Jimmy Carter's approval of his request for political asylum, his passport, some personal notes, and a camera containing a few snapshots of his daughter. That night, after a very long first day in his newly adopted homeland, he fell to his knees and prayed aloud for the first time in more than 25 years. Exactly three months shy of his fiftieth birthday, he was a free man.
Disinformation: Deception as Strategic Policy
And an exceedingly grateful one. Coming to America to stay had been a lifelong dream of his. His hands may have been empty, but his head was crammed full of information of monumental importance to the West, and he was eager to share it. Hanging in his abandoned office back in Bucharest, there was a banner proclaiming, "CAPITALIST ESPIONAGE REPORTS HISTORY. WE MAKE IT." To understand what the Soviets meant by that little epigram, one must understand the Russian "science" of dezinformatsiya, or disinformation—a foreign concept to well-meaning, free-world Westerners.
Lest we think that global warfare ended with World War II or that Western political liberty prevailed for good with the collapse of the Berlin Wall, General Pacepa would advise us to think again. The Soviet cancer of disinformation has metastasized across the globe, and recognizing and countering it is literally a matter of life and death, as the octogenarian—now an American citizen—shows in his latest book, Disinformation: Former Spy Chief Reveals Secret Strategies for Undermining Freedom, Attacking Religion, and Promoting Terrorism (WND Books, 2013), co-authored with law professor Ronald J. Rychlak.
Disinformation is not synonymous with misinformation. If Russian sources had fabricated a story and published it through their own outlets, that would be misinformation, and Westerners would rightly have read it through a skeptical filter. If, however, the same information appeared in Western media and was attributed to Western sources, that would be disinformation. In both cases, it reduces to flat-out lying, but in the latter case, the credibility of the lie—and therefore its power—is substantially greater.
Codified in highly classified training manuals, disinformation was, for the Soviet-bloc countries, a carefully planned and strategically executed "science." By 1950, Joseph Stalin, Supreme Dictator of the USSR and de facto head of roughly a third of the world's population, faced a strong post-war alliance between the U.S. and Western Europe. He knew he didn't have the military or economic strength to break that bond, but he was also a bad loser, unable to coexist contentedly with the free West. So he reverted to the older, low-tech weaponry of lies and emotional manipulation.
He appointed Andrey Vishinsky as Minister of Foreign Affairs and charged him with turning European sentiments against America. (Vishinsky would accomplish this by accusing America of harboring Zionism—more on that in a moment.) Then he dispatched Aleksandr Panyushkin to Washington, D.C., as Soviet Ambassador to the U.S. Panyushkin's main task was to foster the creation of peace movements in America (because, if you can seduce your enemy into laying down his arms, he and everything behind him will all be yours). The goals were to divide the West and to vilify and weaken America, the strongest of the Western nations.
This was the strategy with which the Cold War was prosecuted from Moscow. Stalin called it World War III. It was a war of ideas—an intelligence war in which more people worked in disinformation than in the Soviet army and defense industry combined.
But unlike Western intelligence services, Soviet-bloc espionage was not designed to obtain factual information or analyze the enemy. The purpose of foreign intelligence for the Soviets was to spread information—falseinformation, usually aimed at accomplishing one of three objectives: (1) to polish a Communist leader's image, (2) to hide Communist crimes, or (3) to frame and slander an enemy—usually America, the Church, or later, Israel. Very often, disinformation involved rewriting history, retrofitting what has beento make it accord with whatever best furthered the objectives of the current regime. Thus, there were "few things more difficult for Russian and Western historians," Pacepa and Rychlak note wryly, "than to predict Russia's past."
Only in a world of deceit is the past unpredictable. But this is what was meant by the pithy assertion, WE MAKE HISTORY.
Truth as Counter-Strategy
Disinformation amounted to deception as national policy. Of course, this was never publicly announced by the Kremlin, and by and large, Western leaders were oblivious to the sheer cunning of it. President Truman did know, however, that Stalin intended to expand territorial control. Truman also believed that the "force of imperialistic communism" could only be stopped "through a concerted religious effort," one that would place the superiority and strength of "truth and freedom" before the peoples of the world. In this way, Truman reasoned, Soviet falsehoods would be overcome by the "plain, simple, unvarnished truth."
And so he launched his "Campaign of Truth" in 1950, which he rightly saw as "a struggle, above all else, for the minds of men." He asked Pope Pius XII, who had proven himself a strong moral ally in the face of Nazism, for help, and a cooperative, free-world counteroffensive began, which gave birth to the Voice of America, Radio Free Europe, and Radio Liberation (later, Radio Liberty). The Vatican acquired a large tract of land north of Rome for a new broadcasting center, and in 1957 it went into operation. Soon after that, Vatican Radio, which had helped the resistance oppose the Nazis during World War II, became another high-powered voice of truth, countering the lies of Communism in 47 languages.
"Blow Up That Whole W-w-wasps N-n-nest"
Quantifying the full return on this kind of a political-global investment is humanly impossible, but the ramifications with respect to Pacepa alone would prove profound, as the broadcasting center would play a role in his defection. The target of the long-dreaded assassination order that prompted him to defect in 1978 was Noel Bernard, the director of Radio Free Europe's Romanian program. "I w-w-want Noel k-k-killed," Romanian "President" Nicolae Ceausescu had whispered in his ear on July 22, 1978. "And a few days later," he had continued, "blow up that whole w-w-wasps n-n-nest." The "wasp's nest" was the Munich headquarters of Radio Free Europe, from which Bernard had been blackening Ceausescu's carefully crafted image. So Bernard had to go, "Death to truth-tellers" being the primal instinct of a dictator.
But out of conscience, as we have seen, Pacepa sought asylum in the U.S. rather than complying with the order. Indeed, far wider consequences were yet to unfold. In 1987, with the encouragement of his American patriot wife Mary Lou, and after overcoming obstacles to publication erected by the Carter administration, Pacepa published his first book, Red Horizons: The True Story of Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu's Crimes, Lifestyle and Corruption. (At the time, America and the West were fawning over Ceausescu—the strategic result of a successful disinformation campaign out of Moscow.) In 1988, Red Horizonswas serialized over Radio Free Europe, and the following year, both Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu were executed by the Romanian people after a trial in which the charges had come nearly word-for-word out of Red Horizons.
At the risk of sounding like an infomercial, (But wait!) there's more. During this time also, two congressmen handed a copy of Red Horizons to President Reagan, to whom it became "my bible for dealing with dictators." By 1990, the Berlin Wall had come down, and the entire Soviet edifice would soon follow.
Of course, this was a cataclysmic collapse with far-reaching implications, prompting justifiable celebrations worldwide. But the evil designs on the West had gone to seed, and whole KGB-launched or KGB-commandeered organizations based on falsehood had put down roots and taken on pernicious lives of their own.
The most virulent strain to emerge thus far has come out of the Middle East. On April 16, 2004, Sheik Ibrahim Mudeiris appeared on Palestinian TV and, pounding his fist in the air, cried out, "It is World Zionism that manipulates U.S. decision-making by remote control." How did he know this? This "World Zionism" had been exposed, he said, by Roger Garoudy, a former French Communist convert to Islam, who had learned of it from reading The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
This, too, is the fruit of a disinformation campaign—Operation "SIG," which involved disseminating into the Islamic world hundreds of thousands of Arabic translations of the Protocols—a known Russian forgery saying that the Jews planned to take over the world. (Protocols had also, incidentally, been the basis for much of Hitler's Mein Kampf.) Pacepa was personally involved in distributing it, along with "documentary" material "proving" the U.S. to be the Jews' Zionist accomplice. Lest this sound too far-fetched to be believed by peaceable Westerners, Pacepa scrupulously details the machinations and chain reactions from Moscow to a plethora of leftist peace movements, liberation ideologues, and Islamic jihadists.
Plain Truth: Still the Best Defense
Disinformation can be tough reading. The darkness of the evil it exposes assaults the psyche, but the onslaught is mitigated by the unfolding revelation of how plain, unvarnished truth did illuminate the darkness and out-endure the lies. Pacepa's own story of redemption, the collapse of the USSR, and the enduring light of the Catholic Church—these all bear witness that truth and virtue ultimately prevail and that the campaign of truth is still the best hope in the face of evil empires and their lies. •

Google Nexus One gets proper multitouch
By Tim Conneally
Published 11 years ago
A new software update for the Nexus One Android phone will finally offer the famous "pinch to zoom" functionality found in other "superphones" such as the Apple iPhone, Palm Pre, and HTC HD2. This news came from Google earlier today.
The famous multitouch gesture has been present on Android phones outside of the US (including the Nexus One) but due to unspecified reasons, the American version of Android has not fully supported it.
Google's Andy Rubin, head of the Android project, was asked about the subject in a panel discussion for The Wall Street Journal at CES 2010:
"It's not an America versus outside America kind of thing," Rubin said. "It's a decision that is a result of the OEM model. I personally don't like two-handed operations...there is no conspiracy."
With this over-the-air update, what is described as "a new pinch-to-zoom mechanism" has been added to the Browser, Gallery, and Maps applications. To access the update, users will receive a message that will appear in the phone's notification bar. Like a standard Android notification, when the user clicks on that message, he'll be prompted to start the download. Google says the most users won't receive the update until the end of the week.
If this hotly-demanded feature doesn't come to other Android phones, Google's going to have some explainin' to do.

Q: how to restrict maximum number of files for a folder Actually iam dumping a database file through php in an export folder which i created.
Here i want to keep only latest ten sql files in export folder kind of FIFO way.
I do not want too over populate the folder and want to restrict it too ten latest files.
How to do it ?

A: First grab all the files using glob for instance, then determine if there are ten or more files in the directory. After that check the mtime (modified time) for each and delete the oldest one.
$file_pattern = '/path/to/directory/and/files/*';
$filenames = glob( $file_pattern );

if ( count( $filenames ) > 9 ) {
    // While there are ten or more files.
    while ( count( glob( $file_pattern ) ) > 9 ) {
        $oldest_file = null;

        // Grab the unix timestamp of *now*, as filemtime returns a unix timestamp too.
        $current_oldest_time = time();

        foreach ( $filenames as $filename ) {
            $filetime = filemtime( $filename );

            if ( $filetime < $current_oldest_time ) {
                $current_oldest = $filetime;
                $oldest_file = $filename;
            }
        }

        // After the foreach you'll have the filename of the oldest file (remove it),:
        unlink( $oldest_file );

        // Or null if something went wrong (break out of the loop):
        break;
    }
}

A: you can delete files with the unlink function : http://php.net/manual/de/function.unlink.php
you just have to find the oldest file in your directory

Ancient Mayan civilization used advanced water treatment technology
Narwhal19	Posted on January 7, 2021

Scientists have uncovered evidence of an advanced water treatment system, built more than 2,000 years ago, in the ancient Mayan city of Tikal in the tropical forests of Guatemala. The Mayans used the mineral zeolite in the treatment system to filter out harmful microorganisms and toxic chemicals. This system represents the oldest known example of a water treatment system in the Western Hemisphere. The new research was published in the peer-reviewed journal Scientific Reports on October 22, 2020.
The 2021 lunar calendars are running out! Order yours before they're gone.
At its peak, the ancient Mayan city of Tikal is believed to have been the home to at least 60,000 people, and scientists have discovered the remains of more than 3,000 structures located around the city. The city was located in the area that is now Guatemala in Central America.

Scientists collected sediment cores from three drinking water reservoirs in Tikal that were used to store water from approximately 2,200 to 1,100 years ago. Mineral analyses revealed the presence of zeolite at one particular site known as the Corriental reservoir. Zeolite is an aluminosilicate mineral that has many pores and is an excellent material for trapping drinking water contaminants like harmful microorganisms and toxic metals. Because of its unique properties, zeolite is often used in modern water purification systems.

The zeolite found in Tikal was likely collected from distant mineral deposits located about 19 miles (30 km) northeast of the drinking water reservoir and was transported back to the city, according to the scientists from the University of Cincinnati who performed the analyses. It is possible that the Mayans became of aware of the excellent water quality in the area containing the zeolite deposits and this led to the inspiration for its use in Tikal.
The main source of drinking water in Tikal was precipitation and runoff, and drinking water was likely scarce in times of droughts. The drinking water reservoirs thus played a crucial role in supplying the residents with potable water throughout the year. However, water can become foul when it is stored for long periods of time, and so the Mayans used the zeolite treatment technology to help purify the water.
This system represents the oldest known example of a water treatment system in the Western Hemisphere. Around such times, other known civilizations in the Americas mainly relied on natural springs for their drinking water, and this was water was often transported to inhabited areas through a system of aqueducts. While advanced water filtration systems have been discovered within the ancient cities of Greece, Egypt, and South Asia, the system at Tikal represents the first of its kind in the New World.
Kenneth Barnett Tankersley, lead author of the new paper and associate professor of anthropology at the University of Cincinnati, commented on the findings in a statement. He said:
The ancient Maya lived in a tropical environment and had to be innovators. This is a remarkable innovation. A lot of people look at Native Americans in the Western Hemisphere as not having the same engineering or technological muscle of places like Greece, Rome, India or China. But when it comes to water management, the Maya were millennia ahead.
Bottom line: Scientists have uncovered evidence of an advanced water treatment system in the ancient Mayan city of Tikal, in which zeolite was used to purify the drinking water. This system represents the first of its kind to be discovered in the Americas.

HOUSTON – Nov. 22, 2017 – The Rothko Chapel is preparing to host an event exploring the dynamic culture of indigenous people -- and one woman's relationship with the divine.
At 7 p.m. on Thursday, Dec.7, the nonprofit's "Concept of the Divine" series continues into it's second season with a conversation with Suzanne Benally, executive director of Cultural Survival, an organization advocating for the rights of indigenous peoples.
The Rothko Chapel is located at 3900 Yupon St., Houston, 77006. The event is free and open to the public includes a public reception, and has a suggested contribution of $20.
Benally is the first indigenous executive director of Cultural Survival, an organization that has supported native communities' self-determination, cultures and political resilience since 1972.
She is Navajo and Santa Clara Tewa from New Mexico.
Prior to assuming her current post, Benally served as the associate provost for institutional planning and assessment, as well as associate vice president for academic affairs, at Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. She was a core faculty member in environmental studies and a member of the president's cabinet.
Before starting at Naropa in 1999, Benally was the deputy director and director of education programs at the American Indian Science and Engineering Society. She also worked as director of the Institute on Ethnic Diversity at the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education.
The Rothko Chapel's executive director David Leslie said that Benally was a perfect fit for the continuation of the Chapel's series, which provides a unique space for speakers to share how their personal concept of God has changed over time and has shaped their lives, their service to the community and their understanding of their own identity.
He explained the lecture series allows the Chapel to shine a light on an individual's spiritual journeys.
He added that the Concept of the Divine series is a response to conversations happening in the community.
The series includes speakers from diverse faith backgrounds.
The series continues with a conversation in February between Ilia Delio, a theologian and Franciscan Sister of Washington, DC, who specializes in science and religion, with interests in evolution, physics and neuroscience, and Bill Kerley, a psychological and spiritual teacher at Houston 's St. Paul's United Methodist Church.
For event registration and for more information about the Rothko Chapel, the "Concept of the Divine" series and a full calendar of upcoming programs, workshops and events, visit rothkochapel.org or call 713-524-9839.

Q: Problems with screen in Windows 7? Graphics gets stuck I'm having problems with graphics that get "stuck" in Windows 7, usually when selecting an item in a menu. See screenshot.
It's removed if I change the resoultion of the screen.
How can I fix this?

A: The answer above, disabling menu fade out, will prevent it from happening in the future. If you need to clear a menu item that's already stuck on your screen without rebooting, you can go to the Display control panel, select "Change display settings" on the left, and change your resolution. When asked if you want to keep the changes or revert, click the "Revert" button. Your display settings will stay the same, but the annoying floating menu item will go away.

A: If you want to remove the menu item that's stuck on your screen, simply click on the Ctrl button. It disappears. That doesn't solve the problem, but it helps to make it less irritating.

A: This problem started in Windows 2000 when fading menus were added. I believe they implemented this in kernel code, so it's integrated deeply into the OS. Nobody seems to have found a solution to the stuck fading menu item bug, but you can turn off fading menu items.
Simply uncheck Fade out menu items after clicking in performance options:

A: For me changing the screen resolution worked. Try the steps below:

*

*Right click and select "Screen Resolution" from the menu

*Select a different screen resolution to your normal one

*Select the "Apply" button (bottom right)

*Select the "Keep Changes" button

*Repeat the above steps but select your normal screen resolution during step 1

A: You can also clear an element that's already on screen without rebooting by going to Services and restarting the Desktop Window Manager Session Manager.

If your goal is to minimize your premiums, finding affordable car insurance quotes is half the battle. However, your opportunities to cut costs don't end there. Even after you've selected a policy and a carrier, you can take additional simple steps to put affordable auto insurance within your reach. Make your policy inexpensive and manageable with the following strategies.
So many of the steps you can take toward affordable auto insurance involve small adjustments to the way you manage, spend, and save your money. For example, a simple way to an affordable car insurance policy is to raise your deductibles, but you will do so at your peril unless you have enough money saved to pay that deductible if you have an accident. Similarly, planning ahead for your monthly bills, including your car insurance bill, will help you pay on time—another key to affordable rates.
To help you achieve these goals, create a workable personal budget that accounts for all your income and expenses on a monthly basis. Also include short- and long-term financial goals in your plan. Refer to the budgeting timeline on this page for a visual representation of how to approach the budgeting process. Make sure your budget allows for a sufficient level of savings to cover the deductible you've selected if need be. Saving toward a potential deductible expenditure will allow you to avoid paying more in premiums for a lower deductible than you need. Remember budgets are meant to be malleable, not inflexible absolutes. Evaluate how practical and effective your budget is on a regular basis and modify it as necessary.
Carriers can help you achieve affordable car insurance through a variety of potential arrangements. For instance, the payment plan you select will influence your auto premiums. Talk to your carrier to discuss the possibility of annual, bi-annual, monthly, or twice monthly payment plans. In general, the most affordable car insurance comes with the lump-sum annual payment of a premium, but this is not financially feasible for most. If not, you might want to inquire about a manageable twice-monthly plan. More and more carriers offer this option, which breaks a regular payment in two to accommodate your income stream.
If your carrier and state allow it, you might also look into opting for pay-as-you-drive coverage and agreeing to install a mileage-tracking device in your vehicle. For policyholders who don't drive very often, pay-as-you-go might make auto insurance substantially more affordable. From certain carriers, you may even be able to request affordable car insurance quotes specifically on such coverage.


Travel + Leisure magazine readers have voted Hilton Head Island the best island in the continental United States in 2017, the second consecutive year the South Carolina destination finished on top.
Georgia's Golden Isles (Jekyll Island, Little St. Simons Island, Sea Island, St. Simons Island).
Georgia's Golden Isles — Jekyll, Little St. Simons, Sea Island and St. Simons — finished fourth on the U.S. list.
Travel + Leisure readers — almost 5 million of them worldwide — rated the islands based on five characteristics: natural attractions and beaches, activities and sights, restaurants and food, people and friendliness, and value.
Hilton Head also made the 2017 all-world list, ranking second to Palawan, Philippines. Other locations on the list are found in Croatia, Ecuador, Greece, Hawaii, Indonesia and Italy.


The minis arrived from Editor in Chief Bill on Monday. I quickly cut open the envelope, and looked the figures over. I thought they looked like rural farm-folk, so I nicknamed them 'Ma and Pa Kettle'.
That night, I mounted the Kettles on their bases, and did a little putty work to them.
These Possessed Zombies would lend themselves well to a zombie game based on the world of the Evil Dead movies. It's one of the earliest horror movies I saw as a kid. Sam Raimi's work has had quite an impact on me. Later, the Resident Evil video games added to how I would picture Horror Gaming. These influences have set the path for how I paint and model figures for the genre.
When it came to the base details, I pictured the zombies roaming the backwoods of Michigan. With the Evil Dead movies and the environment in mind, I set about working on the bases. Each zombie is hovering with a tree limb under a foot. I prefer this to the old 'wire up the bum' or 'in the foot' to keep them aloft.
To continue the Evil Dead theme, I gave the lady (Ma) zombie a dismembered "Evil" hand and a few picked-clean human skulls. For the man (Pa), I built up the tree limb into an "Evil" stump with an outstretched, grasping tree limb. I also added a few more greenstuff rocks around each base.
I have tons of zombies, and wanted to try something different for these. I see these two as character zombies that could lead a unit of rank-and-file ghoulies. I gave them base details that would make them stick out as leaders. The base lends itself to a leadership role, as the outer edge is more like a picture frame than the average plastic slotbase.

We've polled our writers and editorial staff and have gathered 50 of our most recommended albums of the year. We didn't include reissues and only included releases reviewed in 2017. Some titles released in December 2016 will be considered in the 2018 "Best of" list.
We understand the difficulties in ranking and we only rank the Top 10. We hope that the readers use this list merely as a guide to the best music that Louisiana has to offer.
There's a lot of great music out there!
All in all, it's a fine performance by Stanton in his continuing evolution from funkateer to all-around drum eminence, with great sidemen and material.
Under Ben Jaffe's leadership, the Preservation Hall Jazz Band has spent much of the past decade redrawing the boundaries of traditional New Orleans jazz.
Trombone Shorty's personal tradition of stunningly good musicianship, crowd-pleasing good material and just plain good fun.
Not since Dr. John's storied debut—which coincidentally also included a piece based on the Kalenda legend—have Louisiana traditions been so thoroughly psychedelicized.
Payton takes on this obviously joyful task by bringing together acoustic instruments, electronic samplings, a string section and elements of spoken word … so one can realize the roots and resemblances.
Identity is a scene record, a perfect amalgamation of all the good things that have been happening to New Orleans music in the past decade.
The Navigator, a coming-of-age statement that immediately places her high in the pantheon of singer-songwriters from her generation.
Top of the Mountain musically expresses just why Dwayne Dopsie stands at the peak of zydeco today.
With KindHumanKind, Aurora Nealand, a centrifugal force on New Orleans' traditional jazz, modern jazz and rock scenes, incorporates more elements from her vast artistic arsenal than on any recording to date. The results are electrifying.

The Kids Are Alright – Biopic Review
by Emilio Pérez Miguel on January 18, 2010
"The Kids Are Alright" Was Directed By Super-fan Jeff Stein. Its Theatrical Release Was In 1979.
The music of The Who came from them being one of the truly unique ensembles in the history of music. If there was ever a band with a million tales to tell, it was them. The way those guys were together and constantly at odds was something that their music did not necessarily convey, until one (correctly) interpreted the outrageous volume as a telltale of bottled emotions and anger. But there was also enormous love and belief lying at the heart of it all. And that was something which just had to be told.
"The Kids Are Alright" (1979) was assembled with that objective in mind. The idea was to show what made the band so distinctive, and why it was that their fans were so loyal. The movie itself (directed by a then-young Jeff Stein, and released shortly after Keith Moon died) achieved that aim, but only in a certain sense: it captured their offstage irreverence in full flight by the inclusion of interviews and specials that were shot through the years.
However, it did fail to fully deliver in terms of performances. Of course, nobody said as much back then – when the movie was released, it featured clips such as the infamous "exploding drums" performance at the Smother Brothers's Comedy Hour (1967), "A Quick One" at the Rolling Stones Rock & Roll Circus (a never-before seen performance back then), and clips from the Monterey Pop Festival. Likewise, it included four "Tommy" selections from Woodstock.
But when the "30 Years Of Maximum R & B Live" VHS was released in 1994, fans were frankly amazed at the clips that had been previously neglected – why wasn't footage from Charlton used? Why weren't clips from the Isle Of Wight performance included?
Such omissions are a bit hard to stomach, frankly. But as far as capturing the sass of the band and the lunacy/greatness of Keith Moon outside the recording studio went, the movie received an A+ from everybody. Leaving aside a quite pathetic pre-staged hotel demolition during his decadent years in LA, you get to see clips of him such as an interview by Ringo Starr in which the ex-Beatle asks Keith how he joined the band. They both are completely past it, and Keith's response is witty yet heartbreaking. There are also "true" clips of debauchery recorded through the years, the "Rolls Royce In The Pond" picture is shown briefly, and near the end Keith has the chance to dress as his childhood hero Long John Silver once and for all.
It would be unthinkable not to recommend this movie to newcomers and true fans of the band. The one thing to bear in mind is that there is another video that documents their live shows better. But if you want to see where all that musical edge did come from, this is certainly the most revealing piece you can get your hands on. A classic is a classic, even if later releases highlight some deficiencies.

LUSAKA High Court judge Mwila Chitabo has issued a writ of habeas corpus directing the officer-in-charge at Lusaka Central Prison to take to court a Kenyan Islamic priest who has been in detention for three weeks.
Mr Justice Chitabo issued the directive on April 22, this year, to take to court Jama Abdirashid Mohamed, a Kenyan and Islamic teacher.
This is a case in which Mohamed is challenging the decision of the police to keep him in Lusaka Central Prison from April 7 this year to date without any charges.
"Take notice that you are required by the said writ to have the body of the said Jama Abdirashid Mohamed before the judge on April 29, 2015. In default thereof the court will then, or so as can be heard by counsel, send you to prison for your contempt in not obeying the said writ," he said.
And Mohamed, of plot number 2477/13 Kalundu West in Lusaka, said on April 7 this year, he was awakened around 01:21 hours by the police and bundled onto a vehicle.
Mohamed said he was taken to Kalikiliki Police Post where he was held until about 15:00 hours.
He said he was later taken to Lusaka Central Prison and has been held to date without giving him any reasons for his detention or served with detention order or warrant of arrest.
Mohamed said on April 8, eight law enforcement officers questioned him for over two hours at police headquarters in the absence of lawyers and was not informed about his rights to have legal representation.
He said on April 9, he was again taken to police headquarters where he was questioned by about eight law enforcement officers.
Mohamed said he has been in illegal detention for about three weeks now without being charged or notified of what crime he had committed.
He said he legally resides in Zambia and has a valid work permit, which will expire on August 27, this year.
Mohamed said he has not been charged with any criminal or immigration offence in Zambia.
He said his lawyers have advised him that his continued detention is illegal and unconditional.
The matter failed to take off yesterday because Justice Chitabo was indisposed.


Thank you for your message, it is great to hear from you. I completely understand and I can relate to all of your worrying thoughts about getting your results from your ballet exam. It is an anxious time for dancers. What will I get? Will I do better than my friends? All these questioning thoughts naturally come rushing to your mind.
If you don't get honors, then try not to feel too disheartened. Let it be a time for you to reflect on what you need to work on and it can make you more determined in your ballet classes. Even if you have got honors in all your other exams, remember that this is a new exam and it is a different level so it may be harder to reach honors.
It is so so natural to compare yourself to your friends and it will no doubt be what you all want to talk about when you get your results.... but it is just a small moment and soon you will all move onto the next thing to talk about. If your friends do better or worse than you, it is doing you no good comparing yourself to them. You are an individual dancer. Focus on yourself only and don't get distracted by others.
Don't worry about your teacher too, as she has taught you probably for many years now so she is fully aware of your ability at ballet. She knows your strengths and weaknesses, so she can help you improve and she will not judge you on your results. Don't be afraid to talk to her too and she can give you encouragement and guidance.
Once you get your results, move forward and focus on what you can do next to progress in your ballet classes. If it wasn't the results you hoped for, then don't let it affect you or your dancing.
It is one exam, one moment and one time... trust me Lara, you will have many more chances so keep positive and trust your ability as a dancer!

Every respectable Harry Potter fan knows the Hogwarts origin story.
The four most powerful wizards and witches of the age gathered together and created a school so they could teach magical kids how to turn a rat into a water goblet and other useful life skills. For their troubles, their names were honored forever as the school's four houses —Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor and Slytherin. What's not exactly clear is why Slytherin, the muggle-born hater, was invited to the cool kid's table.
Luckily sketch comedy team Viewers Like You has cleared up that mystery with a video reenacting exactly how the first Hogwarts discussion went down.
Now if they could just clear up why wizards can't use cell phones.
This witty mini web series reimagines Harry Potter as a sitcom character. Chortle alert!
Clearly the franchise needed an epic rap battle between Master P and MC Voldemort. It's worth a play for the amusing lyrics and trash-talk.
BBC comedy show Dead Ringers pokes fun at the similarities among these three major fantasy series.
Neil Cicierega's "Potter Puppet Pals" are wildly popular with the kids. This video has racked up more than 100,000,000 views.

The Simpsons has chucked a few Harry Potter references into its episodes over the years. This fan-made mashup effectively combines the two for animated fun.

Police Union Officers Say They Were Targeted
James HalpinJanuary 10, 2018
WILKES-BARRE — Two Wilkes-Barre Police Benevolent Association officials have filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city, alleging officials retaliated against them for raising concerns about leadership — including allegations that the police chief has been cooking the books to make it appear the crime rate went down. Union President Sgt. Phil Myers and Vice President Dan Duffy filed suit last week alleging Mayor Tony George and police Chief Marcella Lendacky targeted them for retaliation because of concerns they raised about police leadership. The complaint filed by Philadelphia law firm Mark B. Frost & Associates alleges that city officials failed to act when Myers informed City Administrator Ted Wampole that Lendacky was manipulating crime statistics. "In these reports, crimes were reclassified as lesser offenses, in order to fraudulently affect the crime statistics for the City of Wilkes-Barre and in order to falsely portray a message that crime was decreasing in the city," the complaint alleges. "No action was taken by the city or Mayor George in response to plaintiff's request for an investigation into Lendacky's management, nor was any action taken in response to Myers' complaints to Wampole regarding Lendacky falsifying crime records." Lendacky did not immediately return a message seeking comment, and Wampole declined to comment, citing pending litigation. George declined comment on the lawsuit in general because he had not been served with it yet, but he did respond to some specific allegations related by a reporter. George said Lendacky was correct to make changes in the reports in question because they incorrectly reported thefts — such as copper pipes being taken from vacant houses — as burglaries. Lendacky changed the crime classification to reflect that the crimes were indeed thefts. "You can't have a burglary in an unoccupied house," George said. "According to the crimes code, you can only have a burglary in an occupied structure. She corrected it to theft." "That's one of the reasons I ran for mayor," George continued. "The police department wasn't being run the right way. (Standard Operating Procedures) were not being followed." Retaliation alleged Duffy, a former Scranton police chief who also served as director of the police academy at Lackawanna College, was fired from the Wilkes-Barre Police Department in October, purportedly because he violated a city harassment policy in an email to city officials about a union matter. Myers, meanwhile, was suspended without pay and is scheduled for another suspension beginning today, according to the complaint, which alleges the officers lost pay and other benefits in retaliation for them raising concerns. According to the complaint, the bad blood between Duffy and Lendacky began when she was a lieutenant and he filed a complaint alleging she was violating the department's code of conduct. As a result of the complaint, Lendacky and other lieutenants attended a training session, while Duffy was removed from his shift, the complaint says. George, meanwhile, had a falling out with the union after Myers informed him the union would not endorse his mayoral candidacy because the union does not make endorsements, according to the complaint. In response to the perceived snub, George removed Myers from his position as community policing officer, the complaint alleges. George on Tuesday disputed that allegation as well. He said the police union "gave me a check" during the mayoral campaign, which he considered an endorsement. He also said he replaced Myers as community policing officer "because he never showed up to crime watch meetings." "For National Night Out, he was at the one in Plains Twp. — the city didn't even have one. We had the biggest in the state when I was in and (retired Wilkes-Barre police officer) Pat Rushton was in," George said, adding that he offered Myers a second chance with the position, but Myers turned it down. Mismanagement, low morale According to the complaint, the union in November 2016 raised concerns that the department was "mismanaged, that morale was unacceptably low, and that public safety had suffered." But even after Myers informed Wampole in December 2016 about Lendacky's alleged manipulation of crime reports, city officials failed to act, the complaint says. In fact, last April Cmdr. Ron Foy prohibited officers from reviewing police reports other than their own, according to the complaint. "This was done in an effort to hide Lendacky's changing of reports in order to downgrade crimes," the complaint alleges. The union officials posted about Foy's order on the union's Facebook page, and received suspension notices because of the postings in September, a day before the order was rescinded, the complaint says. The lawsuit alleges that Duffy was finally fired in October after he emailed George and Wampole about an "ongoing course of unbecoming conduct" by Foy — an email city officials have alleged was threatening. Myers, meanwhile, was suspended without pay for refusing to identify the author of the Facebook post about the police reports. Last week, Myers received notice that he was being suspended from today to Feb. 1, a disciplinary action that is unrelated to a notice he received last month, the complaint alleges. The suit contends that the city violated the First Amendment rights of the officers by retaliating against them for engaging in protected union activities.

Today, as we celebrate Laetare Sunday, we have a little bit more light in the church. We take a break from the dark, penitential purple and we marry it with the Easter White….the Church's way of saying, we're getting there. So buck up and keep on going. Rejoice in what is to come.
Of all the Masses throughout the year, of course hte Easter Vigil is my favorite. The Mass starts in the dead of night. It is dark. No candles, no lights are on. Just darkness. And into that darkness….a fire….a light….JESUS. With Jesus comes the light….because he is the light.
And light is one subject of our readings today. We hear about the man born blind today in our gospel, a man who never saw anything but darkness….until that day, that day when he met Jesus…the Light….and he could see.
St Paul says that we're given a choice: live in the light or live in the dark. Choose the light.
I know a Dominican who went through a bit of a botany stage in his life. He told me how he planted two plants. Same sized pots, same soil, same seeds. He watered them the same. The only difference was–one he put in a dark room with little light, and the other he put in the light of day.
No surprise–the one that was in the darker room grew, but not so well: it was unfruitful, it looked weak, it was not tall. No roots. But the one in the light….that thing grew like crazy. It produced fruits, its roots were deep, it was pretty and green.
We're wired like that. We need the light. And Jesus is the light. We're made by God to need our Jesus. If we don't have him, by George we're like that deadly looking plant. We don't produce fruits, we don't live beautiful lives, we neglect our roots.
The challenge for us today is this: live in the light. Sometimes people prefer darkness, as we hear in the Gospel of John. Which is one strange thing about sin: it makes no sense, none whatsoever. Why on earth would anyone live in that dark room if he had the chance–and the invitation and command!–to live in the light??? Of course we all have done that.
Live in the light, says Jesus. And that will change EVERYTHING.

NAI Pickard, The Full Service Property Consultancy, received a 5-star award in the category "Best Commercial Property Agency, Ukraine".
The European Property Awards are part of the globally respected International Property Awards, which have been running for 15 years. Due to their continual growth in size and standing, a series of other programmes for specific regions have also been launched. The Daily Mail UK Awards were introduced five years ago and these were joined more recently by individual programmes for the European, Arabian, Asia Pacific, African and Americas Property Awards.
There are 36 different categories in total and four and five-star awards are given to the best residential and commercial entries. The highest scoring five-star entries are then re-examined to decide the nominees to go forwards to compete for the ultimate World's Best Award. The World's Best winners, including those from the European Property Awards, will be announced at a grand presentation dinner at The US Grant Hotel in San Diego, California on November 12th.
Supported by a host of well-respected professional bodies such as FIABCI, NAEA, NHBC and NAR to name but a few, the awards are judged by an independent team of experts in the property, design and construction fields, together with property writers and sponsors.
