Metal Fabrication is not a new concept and without even realising you see it in your everyday life all around you. From light fittings to metal display stands to your other everyday encounters, fabrication and welding can be seen.
A lot of men and women use welding and fabrication as interchangeable forms of a word, but that is not the same instance. In its simplest sense, fabrication is the practice of producing a job from steel, and welding may be a single operation throughout that procedure.
In other words, welding combines together two pieces of glass, metal, or thermoplastics with similar melting points and compositions using fusion. Fabrication is the evolutionary process of developing a metallic merchandise, from design and layout to finishing and formation. Nonetheless, in this ever-evolving sector, it is very likely that lots of welders can manufacture, and it is more probable that fabricators could weld.
Thus, what are the similarities and differences between both? Have a look at the resources, procedures, and security precautions that go into both the trades.
Welded mesh supplies are specific to welding processes however as can be seen above with the welding clamps, some can be used for metal fabrication processes as well.
In terms of the similarities, the two professions require cleaning supplies to disinfect the metal. Experienced users use a wire brush and natural solvent, such as acetone or a mild alkaline solution, or even a citrus-based degreaser with no butoxyethanol (a chemical compound which may lead to liver and breathing troubles) to wash away any grease, fatty residue, and germs.
To wash out the facility following a hard day's work, welders and fabricators utilize regular mops and sweepers. For industry-specific cleaning methods, these transaction professionals frequently utilize surface protection films, flooring coatings and finishes, and electro-cleaners.
Since welding is a metal forming procedure, it moves hand-in-hand with sheet metal manufacturing, and every trade utilizes similar procedures, like building and bending, to find the final product. To clarify, there are unique strategies to weld, such as oxy-acetylene, TIG (the most frequent type in fab shops), and gas metal arc (GMAW) welding.
To help create a safe work environment, every trade's store should have rigorous equipment storage policies (whether automatic or handheld), and each apprentice should be trained before using machines by themselves. Additionally, all tools must be thoroughly and frequently inspected for any damage.
If it has to do with sheet metal welding and fabrication, the two professions are significant. This transaction is helpful for each and every market, from building and home extensions to automotive and transport.
Welding is an ancient art that has been in use as the bronze era. It creates a secure, powerful joint that is more powerful than other techniques of bonding metals. Welders ply their trade in several businesses, including mining, construction, oil, and automotive, to name a couple.
Welding is the process where two pieces of metal combine together and in doing so are able to provide object support. The procedure for welding does not only bond the two pieces together in brazing and soldering, however, through the use of intense heat and sometimes the inclusion of different compounds or gases, causes the metallic arrangements of these two bits to combine together and act as one. There are quite a few different welding procedures such as spot welding, metal inert gas (MIG), and tungsten inert gas, which are kinds of gas metal arc welding, arc welding, and gas welding, to mention a couple. Welding may even be performed underwater, as well as in exhibition display services.

Thank you for your great review and comments. We appreciate them. Call us when you are ready to reserve and get a repeat guest's discount. We will be expecting you; hope you can visit us soon.
Great location and nice condo. Beds are a little hard but is our only complaint. Decided to leave a day early so we could get back home to our own beds. Overall very nice condo and very clean.
We love to hear that you had a nice time staying with us at Cedar Lodge. We are terribly sorry that the beds were not to your preference, all of our condos are individually owned so hopefully next visit we can help you find the perfect match. We appreciate your review and hope to see you again in 2019.
We had a great experience. I don't think I will ever stay in another motel.
Wonderful! So happy to hear that you loved your first experience vacationing in a condo. It is absolutely a different experience as it provides everything you would need while on your trip. Thank you for staying with us and please come back and visit with us the next time you are in Pigeon Forge!

Check-in was fast and easy , the condo was exactly like the pictures , very clean . Perfect location . We enjoyed our stay and hope to return soon. Thank you for sharing your Condo.
Thank you so much for choosing Cedar Lodge for your vacation needs while visiting Pigeon Forge!

Great place, but were disappointed that there was no lazy river, as advertised.
Thank you for staying with us at Cedar Lodge Condos on the River in Pigeon Forge. Cedar Lodge is located in a quieter setting just a block off the parkway, but our Lazy River is located at Whispering Pines. We apologize for the misunderstanding. We appreciate your excellent Review and look forward to your staying with us again.
Thank you so much for spending you summer vacation with us at Cedar Lodge! We are so happy to hear that you got the relaxation you deserve, and enjoyed the accommodations. We welcome you back to visit with us again whenever you're in our beautiful Pigeon Forge area!
Riverside was a good choice.
We spent 2 days and 3 nights in Pigeon Forge to attend a wedding & enjoy the local attractions. We liked the condo because it was better than a hotel room, was set back from the main drag yet close to everything.
Thank you for vacationing with us, glad to hear you enjoyed staying at our Cedar Lodge Property! We hope you choose to stay with us again the next time you are in the Pigeon Forge area.
We had an excellent time. We always stay in one of the condo locations and have never been disappointed. They are beautiful, quiet, clean, and most of all like being at home.
Thank you so much for being a long time loyal guest with us at Resort Properties. Your amazing comments mean so much. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know how much you have always enjoyed your time with us. We look forward to your next visit.
We enjoyed our trip and plan to visit again.
Wonderful! Thank you for letting us know that you enjoyed your stay at Cedar Lodge. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at cedar lodge. Everything was very clean and quiet. The staff was very friendly. Our only complaint is about the beds. They were very uncomfortable.
Thank you for your visit and comments. We are glad that you and your husband enjoyed your stay. We apologize about the beds and will make sure the owner gets your message. Cedar Lodge is located in a quiet area but is so close to the parkway in Pigeon Forge. The balcony provides such a quiet, serene atmosphere but you can be in the middle of the "busyness" in a very few minutes. We look forward to your return.
Well equipped, good location, quiet.
Wonderful! We love hearing that you feel right at home while staying with us at Cedar Lodge, this is music to our ears. We are glad that you had a great experience with us and found the condo to be well equipped, quiet and in a convenient location. Thank you for your review and we look forward to your next visit.
Thank you for staying with us during this years Fall Rod Run. We appreciate your kind words regarding our convenient location and staff. Your review is very appreciated and look forward to seeing you again soon.
My husband and I started our vacation at Cedar Lodge on Memorial day in unit 304, which was lovely. He became very ill early on the morning we were to check out. He wound up being in the local hospital for 12 days (excellent care!)and we needed a place to remain in the area until he was strong enough to travel home. We stayed 11 days in this beautiful condo before transferring to Unit 102 (also lovely) for our last week there. That's right we stayed in 3 Cedar Lodge condos in less than 30 days. All were impeccably clean and furnished and each special in its own way! Unit 704 is nicely furnished and actually has one more chair in the living room than the pictures on the website show. I cooked most of our meals and had everything I needed in the kitchen. We slept well at night. The condo is on the top floor and is very quiet. We loved the view from the balcony and the windows in the bedroom. If we decided to take a nap we would leave the blinds open so we had the illusion of being in a treehouse. We discovered that at 9:30PM every night while we were there Dollywood had fireworks and we had a very good view. For two people who were not able to leave the condo all of these little things meant a great deal. We especially enjoyed the sights and sounds of the river. The staff was very kind to us. On our first day we could not get the TV on and thought we had pushed a wrong button, the maintenance man, came upstairs immediately and took care of it. We had several deliveries and the front desk was very kind to make sure we received them. The property is well lit and felt very safe which was important to me since I was coming and going alone most of the time. I had to go out a time or two very late at night to get something we needed and I felt safer than I would have at my own home! My husband and I have been staying in condos rather than hotels for years and Cedar Lodge greatly exceeded our expectations! Thank you staff of Cedar Lodge!
We were so pleased to hear that your husband is doing well and we were more than glad to help you in any way we could during the whole situation. Thank you for staying and keeping us updated on his progress. We appreciate you and hope you both choose to stay with us the next time you are in the Pigeon Forge area.
My family and I stayed 3 nights at this condo and we loved it! It was very nice and peaceful. The view from the balcony was so pretty, and we also grilled out one night down by the water. The only thing I would've liked to have been different was maybe an indoor pool and hot tub because it was out of season for the outdoor pool. We did have a jacuzzi in our room though, and that was very nice.
Thank you for staying with us at Cedar Lodge. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and the beautiful river view. Please try our sister property, Whispering Pines Resort, they have an indoor pool facility that is great for the cooler months of the year. We appreciate your wonderful review and look forward to seeing you again soon.
Our first time to stay at Cedar Lodge Condo. The condo was clean, quiet and the location was perfect to avoid traffic to and from Dollywood. The customer service on the phone and in person was very helpful and friendly. So happy to find a nice place to stay.
You are correct! Cedar Lodge is very convenient to Dollywood and the parkway in Pigeon Forge, TN. We, too, are glad that you have found a nice place to stay. We look forward to your return visits.
Enjoyed stay, excellent property, good location.

Thank you so much for the feedback, Cedar Lodge is a great property and in a wonderful location, so glad you enjoyed staying with us, come back again soon!
Relasing, although trash pickup at 5:45 AM disrupts a sound sleep!
We appreciate your visit and your review. Wish we had control of the hours for the garbage pick-up but we don't. We apologize for their disruption. Hope you will make plans to stay with us again.
Great location on the river. We walked to Dixie Stampede. My boys loved walking down by the river and watching the ducks. The condo was clean, and the beds were comfortable. There were only two chairs on the balcony for our family of 4. I cooked breakfast every morning. The unit needs a nice skillet and a measuring cup. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Thank you for your visit and review of unit 704 at Cedar Lodge Condos on the River in Pigeon Forge, TN. We will pass the information regarding needing more chairs on the patio and skillet and measuring cup for the unit. Glad the boys made some good memories while walking the river bank and watching the ducks.
Thank you for staying with us at Cedar Lodge. We are so pleased that you had a great experience while at staying in condo 704. We hope that you are able to visit us again in the future.
Absolutely more than what my wife and I expected. Very very clean, very quite and close to all attractions. Will never stay in another hotel.
Good idea. Give us a call at Cedar Lodge Condos on the River in Pigeon Forge, TN. We appreciate your visit and your review. Cedar Lodge Condos on the River is located in a quiet area but is close to everything Pigeon Forge, TN has to offer.
We have 3 properties: Whispering Pines, Bear Crossing, and Cedar Lodge Condos. All are located in Pigeon Forge, TN.

We were very happy with our accommodations!
Thank you for staying with us at Cedar Lodge. We appreciate your business and hope that you can visit with us again.
Good facility, but noisy in the AM when Dixie Stampede is undergoing trash removal.
We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay at Cedar Lodge. We apologize for the noise due to trash removal, unfortunately we have no control over the trash pick-up times. We appreciate your patronage and look forward to your next visit.
Thank you for staying with us at Cedar Lodge. We love that you call us your home away from home. We love having you and look forward to your next stay with us.
managers was pretty accurate, the room we were in, 704, had a nice view from the balcony of Little Pigeon River. Would have been nice to have a balcony view of the mountains but can't complain either way. The condo was clean and fairly up to date with the furniture. Would have liked for the bathrooms in both bedrooms to be attached to the bedroom, had to come out of the bedroom to reach one of the baths, alittle inconvenient, but doable. Overall, pretty pleasant stay at Cedar Lodge and would recommend it to friends and family.
Thank you for staying with us at Cedar Lodge, we greatly appreciate your business. Cedar Lodge is a great property with wonderful river views-it's close to the Parkway, but yet very secluded. We do have another property called Whispering Pines if you are interested in getting a mountain view on your next trip to the area. Again, thank you for visiting with us here at Cedar Lodge! We hope to see you in the future.
Just got back for the third time in six weeks to the smoky mountains. I stayed at Cedar Lodge all three times. Great location, good price and very nice place. Easy to get in and out of without a lot of traffic and right of the Parkway. I will be back.
Thank you for staying with us time after time! We look forward to your next stay with us!

Choosing and purchasing a domain is like deciding to get married.
It's an important decision that definitely deserves some attention. In fact, since you need time and money in creating a website, you have to be sure that your domain expresses in a few words the content that you treat.
The choice of the domain has an impact both in the way visitors perceive you and how the search engines will consider your site.
So if you want to choose and buy the right domain, I suggest you read this list carefully.
So before going on HostGator and getting your hosting plan (or any other provider of domains), here's what you need to know.
If you treat topics regarding "green tea", for example, the rule should not be www.ILikeToDrinkTea.com, but rather www.GreenTea.com.
If this name is not available, you can try other versions of it.
Unless you are the owner of a known brand, it will be difficult to create a new one from scratch and push it out, just by focusing on the domain name.
So if you are creating a site around a specific topic, you have two options.
When it comes to better indexing, the domain plays a very important role.
How do I look at my potential visitors?
What keywords would they use to find me at Google?
Then go to Google Adwords Keyword Planner and performs a search to locate the most used and relevant keywords.
Now think about how to include them into your domain.
.com extension is the web's most popular extension.
Clearly it indicates the word "commerce", so it is definitely the ideal extension to communicate to your users on your site that there are products on sale.
Get the .com, if it is possible or, in alternative, choose any .net or .org.
NoPassiveIncome is kinda a short and direct domain name.
It tells that the site is about passive income.
I could have chosen www.HowToWorkOnlineAndBuildAPassiveIncome.com, but it would be too long, unreadable and difficult to remember.
Better to be short and get straight to the point.
If your visitors find your site interesting and helpful, there's a good chance they will want to go back.
Choose a name that is easy to write, as well simple to remember.
Imagine if your main site would be: www.xzbnahtypals.com … definitely hard to type on the keyboard and difficult to remember!
It could be the biggest mistake.
Be careful not to use a name similar to that of a competitor to try to steal its market.
You could even end up in court and having to pay expensive fines.
Play fair and points to what your users are looking for.
Even a domain has its aesthetics.
Ask yourself how you can see it when it is written on a browser.
Make attempts writing on the search bar of your browser the domain name you would like to buy. This way you're sure that you will choose the more attractive one!
If you want to create a successful site that will resist the passage of time, consider choosing a domain that is not strongly tied to the momentary trend.
Make sure that in 10 years your domain will be recognizable and current.
Unless you're a business magnate with a million euro budget available to spend on advertising, keep faith to the basics of good web marketer.
Focus on one niche and conquer it.
Long-tail keywords work best for this purpose.
It makes little difference for the SEO purposes if your domain targets your niche using a plural instead of a singular.
So if one is already taken, you may want to opt for the opposite.
But pay attention to copyright!
Avoid buying domains including articles (the, a, an, etc).
These do not serve the purpose of better search engines indexing. Also think about how your domain will be perceived.
Simply avoid articles in domain names. They are useless.
Is is better "TheFacebook.com" or "Facebook.com"?
13. Need a Tool to Get New Domain Name Ideas?
Have you ran out of ideas?
If you choose a domain name and you want to make sure that no one else can create a site similar to yours, you should consider buying all the variations of your domain name (plus all the extensions).
Defend your site by blocking the access to roads of your niche for other potential contenders.
Again, if you have an unique name that you don't want to be used by others (and if you are doing things seriously), be sure to immediately record the trademark of your site or brand.
When choosing your domain think about those who come to visit you.
What do they expect you to be?
Who are your visitors like?
Consider also the psychology of your users before choosing the name of your site.
Try to see how it could be your domain when your site is shared on social channels.
This gives you a principle to be followed to facilitate the circulation of your content.
Pay a visit to Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus and watch how the URLs shared are showed.
Then with Google Chrome, make a double click and select "Inspect Element".
Then from there, change the address of the site that you are viewing and save the edit.
Now you can study carefully what you see and choose the version that has a greater visual impact.
18. Dashes, Yes or No?
Many have chosen a domain name with dashes and still were able to build big sites.
Aha-Now or Entrepreneurs-Journey are examples of popular sites with dashes in their domain names, but their owners worked really hard to reach that level of popularity.
I prefer domain names without dashes, but it's up to you.
19. Numbers, Yes or No?
I don't see a problem when using numbers in the domain name.
Just think about if is relevant to your brand and/or what your users expect to find.
There are no restrictions or penalties from the search engines for those websites that use numbers. The search engines value more the older domains. Like the good wine, the more the domain ages the more is good.
In the last 5 years, I have bought many domain names and I expect do purchase even more!
Hopefully after reading this post, you will be able to get the perfect domain name (if still available!).
I make a few mistakes in my blogging journey and if you're smarter than me, you will save a few hundred dollars and go straight to the point buying a clear, explicit and memorable domain name.
Any suggestions you'd like to add?
I never bought domains like you, but this is a great guide to follow just in case I do.
Speaking of domain name, when I first started blogging, I was advised to use my own name as a domain name. I did this for long term purposes such as people find me on search engines and plus I didn't want to be known for just one product, one niche or one business opportunity.
I wanted to be able to build a following so that wherever I go, my list will just follow me. This is the mindset I promote and I see it as a advantage. I guess it goes with the saying to not put all your eggs in one basket because you don't know if it's going to fall and break them all.
Thanks for sharing these tips Erik! Have a good one!
If you focus on selling "yourself", increasing your reputation and authority, then I think building a site with your own name as domain is the perfect way to go.
Last year, I registered my name too, after 4 years I started blogging.
So far, it's going pretty well!
Thanks for taking the time to read and comment my post, Sherman.
Agreed. As Erick, I am building my portfolio in a domain with my name, but I am also using my business name to explain my services, because I have a partner. Choosing the name and domain was a personal journey and I'm glad it worked, but I realize now that some of this rules must be followed for a more recognizable brand. If I change my brand I'll loose my followers and that's a bad thing. Now I am working on build a strong brand and attach it to my personal work and brand.
Glad you confirmed my points, Mavia.
Good luck with your site and business!
A great reminder of what is important when getting a domain name. You have revealed some important factors. and things to avoid. Thanks for sharing this info. I will have to bookmark this for future reference.
good to hear you liked the content.
Thanks for bookmarking the page and for commenting!
Thanks so much for the kind mention of my site – Aha!NOW. As I've already mentioned everywhere, I had no idea about the dashes in a domain name when I went for the buy. I really wish I didn't go for the dashed domain name but then eventually it didn't make much of a difference to me. But I did make sure that all other domains I bought did not have the dash in it.
I'd add that its okay to go for the new emerging and not so popular domain extension if you do not get its matching or equivalent name in the popular TLD's. You can go for .co or even .xyz , which is trending on top these days among the new ones (now Alphabet has made it more acceptable!).
When it comes to the aspect of brand, if you really have a great site plan, you can go with a unique name to project as a brand from the beginning. Of course, that comes with its pros and cons and a share of risk about how people are going to take it (we see may weird names get popular!).
But yes, its all about your site purpose, your audience, and your existing popularity also makes a difference in your domain name choosing plan.
Also, its not possible for most people to buy all the variants of the domain. The corporate can afford that but it doesn't really make sense for ordinary sites or small companies.
Finally, you do make a good point of first checking out the names on the social networks. I didn't do that when I choose aha-now.com, so I now ended up having different variations of the domain name on the various social networks. I guess all of this happens when you are a new blogger starting off, isn't it?!
it's the perfect example of a domain name with dashes, which has become a popular site, built with efforts and dedication.
I always support your work and your fantastic job.
For some cases, I should go with a brandable name, for some others (as niche sites), I should stick with keywords in the domain name.
I recently built a niche site that ranked #3 for its keywords in less than 4 months on Google.
I was pretty satisfied with results!
Thanks for taking the time to visit and comment my post, Harleena.
Sure Erik, this is an invaluable guide. The choice or pick of a domain name influences how successful a website would become. This guide is on track and the details are very relevant.
It becomes very important for new bloggers to apply these actionable tips and make a mark with their online business.
The best of domain names are relevant, simple, direct, short and valuable for searchers. These 19 tips cover these features widely!
Glad you took the time to check this guide, Sunday.
The choice of the domain name is indeed the first and most important step, which is going to influence the future of your website success.
Good guide to buy domain names.
and a dedicated server with HostGator to host my sites.
I have come to notice that picking a domain name that contains a keyword you are trying to rank for ranks fairly easy compared to any other domain names. This can be useful if you particularly writing a review of something. I have used this trick a couple of times to rank for certain keywords.
I also prefer domains with no dashes or numbers.
Glad you enjoyed the post, Avitus.
From experience, I also found out that adding keywords within the domain name has helped me ranking my latest niche site within top 5 in Google U.S. in just 4 months. Of course, with a proper link building strategy.
Thanks for sharing with us your tips.
I wish I had of read this post before I started blogging. It has some very useful points. One night I came up with the title. I had been thinking about it for a long while. When someone else had it, I put a 0 at the end. I could not let go. However now when I talk to people I say the name of my blog and remind them that there is a zero at the end. So it really does require a bit of thought and jigging. I also wish I had something in the name that tells of my niche, but what is done is done and I do intend for the name of my blog to be recognised.
I am not one for change in these areas, so I think I will have my name for many years to come. I kind of like it, but had I read a post like this before I started I definately would have rethought the name.
yeah, you can build a brand around your site name, whatever is the title…Even with numbers, or dashes!
But it will take time, as competition is still huge online.
I'm glad you liked the post, and thanks for taking the time to visit and comment.
When starting new website first thing is to choose a domain name which will describe about of your site. I always prefer to choose keyword rich domain because it's an ranking factor.
It will be better to choose Easy to spell, unique, attractive and small domain name. Thank you for your great tips to choose best domain name.
Glad you confirmed the points included in the post, Yasin.
Appreciate the visit and comment.
You need to consider these 19 things before buying a domain name.
These four are some that I believe very important and also helpful, but I'm not saying others are not.
Let me add about extensions that use the best extension that best fit your brand, purpose and goal.
And yes, purchasing a domain name is indeed the first and most important step, when building a new website.
Could anyone please tell me which domain registration company sell cheap domain.
Nice article, I especially like #1. Many new domainers either don't know about or aren't well educated enough about Trademarks and how they apply to domains. That's why we see so many that pop up in the marketplace here. I think by just taking a minute to check for TM's before any purchase or reg, someone can save a future headache.
As far as checking for a blacklisted domain, BannedCheck(.)com is in no way anywhere near reliable. I personally have bought domains over the last few years and I always check them through a variety of sites, and this one as well just for kicks.
I have bought domains (usually part of a portfolio) that it said were clean and they weren't and domains that it said were not but were. I would suggest that people do not trust this site as from personal experience it has been wrong just about as much as it has been right.
Do many searches on blacklist checking sites, not just one and especially this one.
Thanks for sharing your experience and nice tips, Barakha.
I use GoDaddy auctions for buying old domain names.
I found some amazing offers, since when I use their service.
I won a few auctions and they were all good investments.

Octodad: Dadliest Catch Is Coming To Smartphones With New Tentacle Touch Controls
By Chris Priestman October 21, 2015
The loving tentacles of Octodad: Dadliest Catch will be squirming their way to smartphones shortly. To be precise, it'll be available on October 29th for iOS and November 4th for Android.
Developer Young Horses has revamped the entire game with a control scheme adapted for touch. However, if you prefer, you can also use a third-party controller connected to your phone or tablet via Bluetooth.
If you don't know already, Octodad: Dadliest Catch has you playing as an octopus who has been masquerading as a human for long enough that he's started a family with two kids. It's probably best not to question how that came about.
You have to control this slippy cephalopod in a suit as he gets married, does the dadly chores around the house, and escapes a chef who wants him dead. The challenge here is simply in moving Octodad around and interacting with items and the environment – it's not easy pretending to be human when you have no bones.
Octodad: Dadliest Catch is already available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Xbox One, and should also be coming to Wii U.


It all started with watching the Lego-version of the Star Wars movies and building the characters with Legos. Then, Sam graduated to watching the live action version when he turned 6 years old. Now, at only 6.5 years old, Sam is a trained Jedi with experience in fighting Darth Vader, and he has the diploma from the Jedi Training Academy to prove it.
Even without his diploma, though, Sam has always been a fighter. His parents discovered that he has a heart condition when Renee was pregnant with him. Because of the severity of his condition, much of his childhood has been spent with treatments and doctor's visits. In fact, he had to postpone having a wish granted last year because he had to leave for surgery.
His wish granter, Andrea Tirhi, made sure that Sam knew he wasn't in the fight alone, though. She arranged for a "wish you well" party at Covenant Christian Academy, his preschool. All the students dressed up in red, which is Sam's favorite color, and they had a balloon release, where everyone wrote prayers and well-wishes for Sam. Afterward, he even got a limo ride to a his favorite restaurant, Cheddar's.
By the time he recovered from his surgery and welcomed a new brother, Jackson, into the family, Sam had found a video of the Jedi Training Academy at the Walt Disney World® Resort on YouTube. He decided his one true wish would be to attend the Jedi Training Academy. His new wish granter, Anh Nguyen, helped set the wheels in motion for this to happen.
So, Sam started practicing every day with the YouTube videos, and when it was time to leave for the trip this May, he packed his Obi-Wan Kenobi costume himself. Renee said that thanks to his preparation, he already knew the routines and was the best student on the stage. Sam got to do the force push with the storm troopers, and he got to ride in the motorcade with all the characters.
Sam said the Jedi training camp was the favorite part of his trip, but the trip did also include time at the Magic Kingdom, where he said they saw Stitch when they rode Stitch's Great Escape. Even though he didn't get to meet Stitch or his favorite Star Wars character, General Greivous, he enjoyed meeting Anakin Skywalker best of all the characters he got to meet.
The family also visited the Legoland, the Animal Kingdom and Epcot Center. On top of that, they had plenty of activities to enjoy at Give the Kids the World. His grandmother, Andrea, watched his brother Jackson since he is only two months old, so Sam got to spend a lot of personal time with Renee and his father, Jacob.

Google Tells Us 'Tenet' Could Be The Most Confusing Movie Ever
June 3, 2022 James ForgeyEntertainment
How do you measure a movie's importance in the modern pop culture zeitgeist? Is it how much money the film makes at the box office? Does it need to be part of a cinematic franchise? Is it whatever movie trends on Twitter or Instagram or TikTok the most?
Or…is it the film that builds and commands a rabid cult audience that will relentlessly discuss and investigate its bewildering plot to help its legacy stand the test of time?
If we're going by that last bit of criteria, then Tenet might unequivocally might be the most important and vital movie to release in the 21st century—according to Google
, anyway. Over the past couple weeks, I've conducted an interesting experiment on Google Trends, which allows you to compare various keywords used on Google's search engine. And without a doubt, no movie has flummoxed the internet more than Tenet in the past 20 years.
Don't mistake me: Tenet might not be the most popular movie of the new century. Google Trends confirmed that. Giant blockbusters like Avengers: Endgame and the Fast and Furious franchise are adored on a worldwide scale; arthouse films like No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood have remained relevant since their shared release in 2007; and heck, Tenet's director has enjoyed his own resounding success with The Dark Knight and Inception. All of those movies have enjoyed great prosperity on Google over the years.
But let's dig a little further below the surface. Because for my research, it's not about which movie is the most popular—it's about which movie is the most confusing. The one that stirs up the most questions. The one that has its own constantly updated Reddit page. The one that inspires a 17,000-word dissection that tried to answer every outstanding question. The one that sends people down a seemingly never-ending internet rabbit hole as they try to figure out the time travel logic and disjointed plot of Christopher Nolan's temporal puzzle.
When searched individually, Tenet wasn't the most viral movie keyword on Google. But when I searched "Tenet explained"? And I compared that keyword search with other well-known confounding movies? There was simply no contest. Wildly confusing movies from the 21st century like Shutter Island, Midsommar, Donnie Darko, American Psycho, and Black Swan didn't hold a candle to Tenet. Nolan's 2020 thriller also blazingly outshined classic movies like The Shining, Psycho, Jacob's Ladder, Brazil, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. No movie from any time period from any director (including Nolan himself) could keep up.
I want to make it clear: this wasn't just an afternoon of searching around on Google Trends. I spent two weeks researching hundreds of different movies—from deeply layered thrillers (Us, Looper, Fight Club, Se7en) to complicated sci-fi ventures (Sunshine, Arrival, Interstellar, Under the Skin) to socially relevant dramas (Her, mother!, Mulholland Drive, Prisoners) to cult-backed horror flicks (Hereditary, Get Out, Signs, The Lighthouse) to the ever-growing list of foreign films that have found wider audiences over the years (Perfect Blue, The Wailing, Your Name, Oldboy). My search parameters stretched from the past 365 days to the past five years to the past 18 years. And none—and I mean absolutely none–of those films came close to matching Tenet's gargantuan search frequency in just the past two years alone.
And that should be no surprise once you've seen the movie. Terms like entropy and posterity are thrown around willy-nilly. You're forced to understand complicated entities like turnstiles, temporal pincer maneuvers, and the "Algorithm." And once you think you have the mind-bending logic of Tenet figured out, the characters (and everything around them, from cars to explosions to bullets) are suddenly "inverted" and moving backwards through time and space.
From the very beginning, Tenet had quite a bit going for its impending lore. Nolan spent over a decade contemplating the story of Tenet and more than five years crafting the screenplay. And then after being delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Tenet became one of the first big movies to release in theaters in the summer of 2020. But the kicker was the film's release on HBO Max on May 1, 2021 (much to Nolan's dismay). Suddenly, this wild time travel experience was available to the masses—which catapulted the manic discussions about Tenet's serpentine plot to epic proportions. Anybody and everybody who was confused about this movie had the entire internet at their disposal to figure it out…and it could very well be true that nobody's cracked it quite yet.
How could the mayhem become more infectious? How could the labyrinthine logic of Tenet twist and bend even further? With a sequel—or an entire franchise—of course. John David Washington has already signaled that he'd love to be part of a sequel, and the film more than laid the seeds for that possibility with its closing scene revelation. And it just so happens that several other of the top-ranking movies in my Google Trends research were part of franchises: The Matrix, Star Wars, Blade Runner, Alien, etc.
In the two years since Tenet's release, the momentum hasn't really slowed down. In fact, in the age of the internet, it's only gotten more intense. With the movie available on HBO Max for anyone with a subscription to watch anytime, we're in a new age for movies that are able to so fluently command a cult army of diehard fans.

Mike Vanderboegh: portrait of an agent-provocateur
Filed under: entrapment — louisproyect @ 4:46 pm
A former Marxist? Hardly.
Four years ago Mother Jones published an article on Mike Vanderboegh, the ultrarightist who has been falsely associated with the armed occupation of buildings in a bird sanctuary in Oregon, that referred to his leftist past:
Fiery rhetoric about resistance and revolution isn't new for Vanderboegh, though the origins of his activism may seem a bit incongruous. "I used to be a communist," he says. Vanderboegh, who is in his late 50s, claims he joined the anti-war movement in 1967, first with Students for a Democratic Society, then the Socialist Workers Party, and eventually the Maoist Progressive Labor Party.
Vanderboegh says his days as a left-wing radical came to an end in 1977. At the time, he was working as an aide in an Ohio hospital and an ex-Wehrmacht surgeon being treated there "wrestle[d] the devil for my soul." "Herr Doktor," as Vanderboegh called him, gave him a copy of Friedrich von Hayek's The Road to Serfdom, a 1944 tome that is one of the intellectual pillars of libertarianism. Through Hayek and some tutoring from Herr Doktor on the evils of communism, Vanderboegh says, he saw the light and gave up the class struggle and even politics in general—at least for a while.
I don't have much interest in the man's involvement with the Burns, Oregon action but I am interested in the allegation that he once belonged to the SWP, a group I spent 11 years in. Vanderboegh's "conversion" is recounted in a post on Sipsey Street Irregulars, a blog that describes itself as "The ORIGINAL gathering place for a merry band of Three Percenters. (As denounced by Bill Clinton on CNN!)".
I can understand the progression from SDS into the SWP, a path followed by many as the New Left degenerated into Weatherman type antics. But hardly anybody ever went from the SWP to the PLP, unless it was Arne Swabeck, the octogenarian who became a Maoist in the 1960s after decades in the Trotskyist movement. In fact my first SWP meeting in NYC took up his expulsion.
But check out what Vanderboegh says about his work with the PLP:
Toward the end, I became a member of the PLP's "secret party," dropped from public view and on instructions began to organize a "worker's militia" in central Ohio. We'd start out vetting new members by having them break into National Guard armory parking lots and slash vehicle tires. In the end, we'd rob dope dealers to raise the money to buy weapons, all kinds of weapons. We were very good at what we did. And very, very lucky. Don't believe me? Most of my "Benedict Arnold" period papers are part of a collection at the Ohio Historical Society. Look it up. You can look up the statute of limitations too. Nobody died. Like I said, we were very, very lucky.
This sounds like utter bullshit to me. If you know anything about the PLP, you know that the last thing they would be up to is robbing dope dealers or slashing tires in National Guard armory parking lots. Most likely, a PLP member would be selling their unreadable newspaper in front of plant gates, the same kind of activity that the SWP would eventually take up. The PLP was a workerist sect that was involved with some major campus struggles such as the San Francisco State student strike of 1968. But its working class intervention was pretty focused on "serving the people" trade union organizing that was anything but adventuristic. In Boston, they were focused on getting their members into the GE plant in Lynn or into the local hospitals.
Basically Vanderburgh sounds like he is telling tales or more ominously had conned some inexperienced PLP members into what looked like the typical FBI entrapment. I remember an invitation from a guy in NYC to take part in similar dubious activities. We knew him as Carl "Mustafa" Jones, an African-American who showed up at our upper west side HQ one afternoon. He told us that he was an ex-con who was at Attica during the rebellion. He was serving time for robbing drug dealers—the same story told by Vanderboegh. After a few weeks of coming to Friday night forums, Jones sat down with the branch organizer and me to invite us to come to a firing range where "revolutionaries" were preparing for armed struggle. At that point we began to have our doubts.
Finally, on his "Benedict Arnold" period at the Ohio Historical Society. I just got off the phone with the librarian there and she told me that the box contains nothing but pamphlets, buttons, leaflets, newspapers, posters, etc. and not a single thing he produced. I was interested in any of his personal correspondence since that would give me some clues into his likely agent-provocateur past. Since there was none, I had to assume that he joined leftist groups without even a modicum of familiarity with socialist politics that allowed Ed Heisler, another FBI informant, to end up on the SWP national committee.
Vanderboegh is in his "late 50s" — say, 58 or 59. If he joined the antiwar movement and SDS in 1967, he was nine or ten years old at the time, and joined the SWP when he was at most twelve. Bullshit.
Comment by Ian Angus — January 5, 2016 @ 10:51 pm
Actually his birth date is 1952. But he is still a bullshit artist and an agent-provocateur.
Comment by louisproyect — January 5, 2016 @ 10:52 pm
"Mike Vanderboegh, the ultrarightist leading the armed occupation of buildings in a bird sanctuary in Oregon"
The above is an outright, utter and complete falsehood. In point of fact Mike Vanderboegh REPUDIATED the very act the author alleges he leads and did so in the strongest possible terms. But I never expect leftist/statists to scruple to stay with the facts.
Ian Angus, Mike Vanderboegh is 63. Does that make him old enough to have done what he said he did?
Comment by Bad Cyborg — January 6, 2016 @ 6:07 pm
Sorry Cyborg but he is indeed an Ultra-Rightist whose full of shit because he was born in either 52 or 53 which means he would have been only 14 or 15 joining the SDS which is nonsense.
Comment by Karl Friedrich — January 6, 2016 @ 11:21 pm
You are quite correct that "Red Mike" Vanderboegh is an agent provocateur — as us "unapologetic Nazis or Christian Identity believers" call a ZOGbot.
Red Mike used to pretend to be a Constitutional "militia general" or head of the 1st Alabama Constitutional Cavalry Regiment or as I called it "Red Mikes' Bolshevik Gang of Four or Five Horseless Mattoids."
You see, there is no such thing as a "Constitutional Militia because the Founding Felons, mindful of how the Amurrikwan Revolution started was by local militias shooting it out with the redcoats on April 19, 1775, made formiing these local "People's Armies" illegal under their proposed CONstitution. So the Founding Felons set it up so that the new militias couldn't be founded at the county and township level but had to be set up by the state government and "federalized." George Washington didn't want the West Pennsylvania whiskey rebels to start a new civil war over Alexander Hamilton's national bank and whiskey taxes, so they made it so that a local militia wouldn't be a "constitutional militia at all.
The original militias of post Waco were less than 20 individuals in Missouri, around a dozen or more, all lead by ex-military of the Christian Identity or Klan persuation. They were impossible for such as Red Mike to get into. It wasn't until late 1994 or early 1995 that the suburban retards of Kansas City or Saint Louis took it into their little minds to form these mythical "Constitutional Militias" and then critters like John Parsons and Red Mike Vanderboegh claimed to be "militia leaders". John Parsons snitched on a Christian Identity Klansman known for being crazy by even Christian Identity standards named "Crazy Willie Lampley" who advocated killing Morris Dees. At the trial, John Parsons admitted to being an FBI informant for $1776 per month, Red Mike resigned from Parson's "Tri-States Militia" but kept in touch with Parsons and the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Red Mike used to have a problem with pulling a .45 Colt pistol on Christian Identity women, and then having to deal with men who wanted to kill Red Mike. But it was in May 1998, when Red Mike pulled his pistol at a Southern States Militia on Pa Beezley, girlfriend of John Parsons, because Pam Beezley was taking pictures of the Alabama Bureau of Investigation and Red Mike had a fit. This got around and everyone was freaked out about Red Mike's antics. When Y2Kaos went bust, so did the militia movement for ten years and so agents provocateur like Red Mike had nothing to spy on.
So Red Mike was reborn as a "leader of the III Percenters." Red Mike fights with the other "leaders" of the 3-percenters, claiming to be a "Constitutional Militia leader" fighting with us Nazis and Christian Identity followers.
Let's understand something: The original militias were survivalist and Klan and Christian Identity "militias" or, survivalists. Some of them went aboveground, most did not. Now there are four or five times as many "militias" as there were in 1993 — but they are "preppers" and don't call themselves "Constitutional militias".
Red Mike Vanderboegh is a Southern Poverty Law Center "militia leader." The old ZOGbot tard is dying and only other retards pretend to be sorry to see this nasty piece of shit croak off.
This blog got Red Mike pegged. Red Mike is an agent provocateur. A fraud. Working for the Southern Poverty Law Center.

I love ambient music and I think Tom Frühwacht aka Earlyguard creates some particularly lovely soundscapes. He is a prolific producer with eight releases available on bandcamp. I am fond of Selective Perception which he kindly releases for free.
In addition to creating these awesome soundscapes... he also writes Haiku and taked photos using the Hipstamatic app on his iPhone (which can be seen on his tumblr). I love his short poems and enjoy the images he creates.
I was recently given the honour to review his latest work... "Haiku"... which will be released on the 1st of June. The wee booklet that accompanies the release demonstrates his talent for Haiku and for iPhoneography... and is a very nice touch. That wee bit extra is always appreciated!
Anyway... while I was penning my thoughts on his work... I thought I'd ask him my seven questions. He responded almost immediately and these were his answers. Enjoy.
I am Tom and produce my own ambient music.
There are so many... but the most impressed and inspired me Brian Eno indeed. His album "The Pearl" (a collaboration with Harold Budd) was my very first contact with Ambient music in the mid-80s... a challenge!
All places with a specific vibe are inspiring me. I love the most looong beach walks at the German North Sea coast - with strong and cold wind!
My music is very abstract and often spontaneous - so it's something like a "snap shot" of a moment in my life. Nothing more.
Community is nice. Feedback is nice. Exchanging opinions is nice.
Thanks Tom... my thoughts on Haiku will follow in the next day or so.

Global Atelier – New Delhi, India
By Steven Wyld, Project Coordinator, VCA and MCM
As I fly into Indira Gandhi airport, it strikes me that it's been twenty years since I was here last. I recall memories of staying in the chaos of Parharganj; oppressive heat, chai wallahs serving tea next to open-air urinals, cows arbitrarily sleeping in the middle of the road as rickshaws carefully made their way around the holy beasts, countless shops seemingly pl
aced on top of each other…and of course the endless beggars.
This time my destination is the nearby Connaught Place – the heart of New Delhi. And as I drive to my hotel I can tell that Delhi has changed. The streets are free from bovine and general debris, traffic moves more orderly, there are new large buildings, a diversity of local and European cars…and they have McDonalds (always a litmus test of any sophisticated civilisation). One can tell that wealth has come to India…but not for all.
I'm here to document the adventures of the VCA and MCM Global Atelier program, starting with visual art students from the School of Art. 2014 will see nine groups of students from the Faculty engage in international exchanges and discover through those journeys an artistic world beyond the shores of Australia.
India is not only rich in history, religion, language, architecture, food and culture…but is also challenging China as a dominant global financial power. It is a land of contradictions where the divide between rich and poor is constantly evident and on display, where the architecture is as magnificent and degraded as any extreme can be and where opportunity for its people is complicated and challenging. It is with this backdrop that these five visual arts students from the VCA, led by Dr Kate Daw, have experienced the exciting and dynamic emerging world of contemporary art in New Delhi.
The trip started with a visit to the India Art Fair 2014, an annual exhibition of contemporary art from India and around the world. There were visits to various contemporary art galleries and exhibitions including the National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi where we were treated to an exhibition of Subodh Gupta's work of sculpture pieces collected from everyday objects and bought to life through arrangement and sheen, often on a large scale.
The highlight for the students was the opportunity to engage with some of India's finest contemporary artists: Gigi Scaria, Mithu Sen, Veer Munshi and Manisha Parekh. The chance to talk on an intimate level with these artists, visiting their workshops and often being invited into their homes, to discuss the histories and influences that inform these artists work on a personal level, has a potentially profound influence in helping to develop personal artistic voice. Their common experiential and political motives for creating art and becoming the artists they are lend legitimacy to a questioning and sometimes dissident voice in a new India – an India where the convergence of the traditional and modern give rise to a beyond post-modern paradox of future possibilities.
Of course if one can, any trip to India is not complete without a visit to that most iconic of mausoleums: the Taj Mahal. This magnificent building of intricate design and architecture is indicative of a culture that values art and artistic endeavor as central to its cultural identity and values. The ornate and complex façade and motif compliment splendid symmetry and topography. The Red Fort too is a marvel of mogul architecture – a perfect compliment to its next-door neighbor and a testament to the influence this civilisation still has on modern day India.
Other notable historic sites we visited included: Jama Masjid in Old Delhi, Old Delhi itself, Qatar Minar and the Tomb of Hussabalah. There is just so much to see and absorb in Delhi alone that you could spend months here and only just scratch the surface.
Leaving Delhi I feel invigorated at my re-acquaintance with this historically rich city. And so as much as things have changed in Delhi, much still remains the same. It has become more cosmopolitan and my impression from those that I have met is that there is a genuine desire for New Delhi – and indeed the whole of India – to shake off its 'third world' tag and become a player of equal standing within the contemporary world. And indeed this is evident in the rise of contemporary art as a significant cultural force in examining India's past injustices, current ideologies and future aspirations. Poverty, among a myriad of issues around religion and politics, still remains a challenge for India. However you feel that the world's biggest democracy is moving towards achieving its goals and the next generation will build on what has already started: a path towards political and economic prosperity.
Led by Dr Kate Daw, five visual art students were able to experience the contemporary art scene in New Delhi as part of the Faculty's Global Atelier program. Global Atelier is made possible with the support of the Faculty of the Victorian College of the Arts and Melbourne Conservatorium of Music at the University of Melbourne by the Victorian Government through Arts Victoria.

The Courageous Pakistan Army's Stand on the Eastern Front: An Untold Story of 1971 Indo-Pak War
By Sharmila Bose
There is much for Pakistan to come to terms with what happened in 1971. But the answers don't lie in unthinking vilification of the fighting men who performed so well in the war against such heavy odds in defense of the national policy. Rather, in failing to honour them, the nation dishonours itself.
My introduction to international politics was 1971, as a schoolgirl in Calcutta. Many images from that year are still etched in my mind, but the culminating one was the photo on Ramna Race Course of two men sitting at a table — the smart, turbaned Sikh, 'our' war-hero, Jagjit Singh Aurora, and the large man in a beret, A A K Niazi, commander of the other side, signing the instrument of surrender. Nearly a generation later, a chance interview for the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) with Lt Gen. Aurora took me back to 1971. The interview was not about 1971, but about injustices suffered by Sikhs at the hands of the state General Aurora had served. I thought he was a bigger hero for what he had to say then. That view was reinforced as I read — with incredulity — the disparaging remarks by other Indian officers about him, and each other, in their books. If this is what happened to the winning commander, I wondered what had happened to the other man in the photo.
The result was a revelation.
It turns out that General Niazi has been my 'enemy' since the Second World War. As Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and his Indian National Army fought on the Burma front in 1943-45 in their quest for India's freedom, Niazi was fighting on the other side, for the British Indian Army, under the overall command of General (later Field Marshal) William Joseph Slim. Slim and his 14th Army halted the advance of the INA and the Japanese at the Imphal campaign and turned the course of the war.
In the process of inflicting military defeat upon my ancestor, Niazi's performance was so exceptional that the British awarded him an on-the-spot Military Cross for action on the Assam-Burma front in June 1944. On another occasion they wanted to award a DSO, but he was too junior, so a Mention in Despatches was recorded. In the original record of his MC signed by his commanding officers all the way up to Slim, which I obtained from the British Ministry of Defence, the British commanders describe Niazi's gallantry in detail: "He organized the attack with such skill that his leading platoon succeeded in achieving complete surprise over the enemy." They speak of how he personally led his men, the 'great skill and coolness' under fire with which he changed tactics with changing circumstances, created diversionary attacks, extricated his wounded, defeated the enemy and withdrew his men by section, remaining personally at the rear in every case.
The British honoured Niazi for "personal leadership, bravery and complete disregard for his own personal safety." On 15 December 1944 the Viceroy Lord Wavell flew to Imphal and in the presence of Lord Mountbatten knighted Slim and his corps commanders Stopford, Scoones and Christison. Only two 'Indian' officers were chosen to be decorated by the Viceroy at that ceremony — 'Tiger' Niazi was one of them.
In 1971 Niazi was a highly decorated Pakistani general, twice receiving the Hilal-e-Jurat. He was sent to East Pakistan in April 1971 — part of a sorry tradition in South Asia of political rulers attempting to find military solutions to political problems. By then Tikka Khan had already launched the crackdown of 25 March for which he has been known to Bengalis as the 'Butcher of Bengal' ever since. The population of East Bengal was completely hostile and Pakistan was condemned around the world.
Authoritative scholarly analyses of 1971 are rare. The best work is Richard Sisson and Leo Rose's War and Secession.
Robert Jackson, fellow of All Soul's College, Oxford, wrote an account shortly after the events. Most of the principal participants did not write about it, a notable exception being Gen. Niazi's recent memoirs (1998).Some Indian officers have written books of uneven quality — they make for an embarrassing read for what the Indians have to say about one another.
However, a consistent picture emerges from the more objective accounts of the war. Sisson and Rose describe how India started assisting Bengali rebels since April, but "the Mukti Bahini had not been able to prevent the Pakistani army from regaining control over all the major urban centers on the East Pakistani-Indian border and even establishing a tenuous authority in most of the rural areas." From July to October there was direct involvement of Indian military personnel. "…mid-October to 20 November… Indian artillery was used much more extensively in support …and Indian military forces, including tanks and air power on a few occasions, were also used…Indian units were withdrawn to Indian territory once their objectives had been brought under the control of the Mukti Bahini — though at times this was only for short periods, as, to the irritation of the Indians, the Mukti Bahini forces rarely held their ground when the Pakistani army launched a counterattack."
Clearly, the Pakistani army regained East Pakistan for their masters in Islamabad by April-May, creating an opportunity for a political settlement, and held off both Bengali guerrillas and their Indian supporters till November, buying more time — time and opportunity that Pakistan's rulers and politicians failed to utilise.
Contrary to Indian reports, full-scale war between India and Pakistan started in East Bengal on 21 November, making it a four-week war rather than a 'lightning campaign'. Sisson and Rose state bluntly: "After the night of 21 November…Indian forces did not withdraw. From 21 to 25 November several Indian army divisions…launched simultaneous military actions on all of the key border regions of East Pakistan, and from all directions, with both armored and air support." Indian officers like Sukhwant Singh and Lachhman Singh write quite openly in their books about India invading East Pakistani territory in November, which they knew was 'an act of war'.
None of the outside scholars expected the Eastern garrison to withstand a full Indian invasion. On the contrary, Pakistan's longstanding strategy was "the defense of the east is in the west". Jackson writes, "Pakistani forces had largely withdrawn from scattered border-protection duties into cleverly fortified defensive positions at the major centres inside the frontiers, where they held all the major 'place names' against Mukti Bahini attacks, and blocked the routes of entry from India…"
Sisson and Rose point out the incongruity of Islamabad tolerating India's invasion of East Pakistani territory in November. On 30 November Niazi received a message from General Hamid stating, "The whole nation is proud of you and you have their full support." The same day Islamabad decided to launch an attack in the West on 2 December, later postponed to 3 December, after a two-week wait, but did not inform the Eastern command about it. According to Jackson, the Western offensive was frustrated by 10 December.
Though futile, the Western offensive allowed India to openly invade the East, with overwhelming advantages. " …despite all these advantages, the war did not go as smoothly and easily for the Indian army…", but Sisson and Rose come to the balanced judgment that "The Pakistanis fought hard and well; the Indian army won an impressive victory." Even Indian officers concede the personal bravery of Niazi and the spirited fight put up by the Pakistanis in the East. That the troops fought so well against such overwhelming odds is a credit both to them, and to their commanders, for an army does not fight well in the absence of good leadership.
However, as Jackson put it, "…India's success was inevitable from the moment the general war broke out — unless diplomatic intervention could frustrate it." As is well known, Pakistan failed to secure military or diplomatic intervention. Sisson and Rose also say, "The outcome of the conflict on the eastern front after 6 December was not in doubt, as the Indian military had all the advantages." On 14 December Niazi received the following message from Yahya Khan: "You have fought a heroic battle against overwhelming odds. The nation is proud of you …You have now reached a stage where further resistance is no longer humanly possible nor will it serve any useful purpose… You should now take all necessary measures to stop the fighting and preserve the lives of armed forces personnel, all those from West Pakistan and all loyal elements…" Sisson and Rose naturally describe this message as "implying that the armed forces in East Pakistan should surrender".
No matter how traumatic the outcome of 1971 for Pakistan, the Eastern command did not create the conflict, nor were they responsible for the failure of the political and diplomatic process. Sent to do the dirty work of the political manoeuvrers, the fighting men seem to have performed remarkably well against overwhelming odds. It is shocking therefore to discover that they were not received with honour by their nation on their return. Their commander, Niazi, appears to have been singled out, along with one aide, to be punished arbitrarily with dismissal and denial of pension, without being given the basic right to defend himself through a court-martial, which he asked for.
The commission set up allegedly to examine what had happened in 1971 was too flawed in its terms of reference and report to have any international credibility. However, even its recommendations of holding public trials and courtmartials were ignored. There is much for Pakistan to come to terms with what happened in 1971. But the answers don't lie in unthinking vilification of the fighting men who performed so well in the war against such heavy odds in defence of the national policy. Rather, in failing to honour them, the nation dishonours itself.

Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu said here on Monday his government was committed to give water to the tail-end areas in East Godavari district and would release 3,500 cusecs from Godavari into the Polavaram left canal and lift the water at about 50 km to send 1,400 cusecs into the Yeleru canal. He reiterated that at any cost they would release water into the Yeleru canal by August 15 by completing the first phase of Purushothapatnam.
He addressed the media after a 90-minute inspection of the Purushothapatnam lift irrigation project work in Seethanagaram mandal, 32 km from Rajamahedravaram.
He said he was working for the State's interests, but some people were indulging in false propaganda on irrigation projects.
He said farmers were voluntarily surrendering their land for the projects and he would work for their welfare.
The CM said by lifting 1,400 cusecs, the Yeleru reservoir capacity would increase from 13 to 28 TMCs through which 67,614 acres would be stabilised. Under the Uttarandhra Sujala Sravanti project, the irrigation department would pump water into the Pushkara canal through the Yeleru reservoir from which water would be taken to Visakhapatnam for drinking purposes.
Mr. Naidu said under this project 2.27 lak acres would be irrigated and Vizag would get 10 TMC. He said 67% works of the first phase and 20% of the second phase in Purushothapatnam had been completed and directed the engineers and the contractor to complete the remaining work and ensure that water was released by August 15 through two of the 10 pumps. The remaining work would be completed by October.
The Chief Minister recalled that in the name of modernisation earlier governments had ditched the farmers, but his government was committed to give water to rabi and khairf seasons without any break in East and West Godavari districts through the Pattiseema, Pushkara and Purushothapatnam Lift Irrigation schemes.
He said Loksatta leader Jayaprakash Narayana and CPI leader Narayana who visited Polavaram recently had appreciated the ongoing work, which showed the commitment of the State government.
To a question, Mr. Naidu said the land acquisition for the Polvaram project needed ₹32,000 crore and another ₹16,000 crore to construct the project. His government would address the land acquisition issues.
The State government had spent ₹3,500 crore on Polavaram till now and the Central government was ready to pay ₹1,000 crore. Home Minister N. Chinna Rajappa, Irrigation Minister Devineni Umamaheswara Rao, Rajamahendravaram MP M. Muralimohan, local MLA Pendurthi Venkatesh, Engineer-in-chief M. Venkateswara Rao and superintending engineer of Purushothapatnam S. Sugunakar Rao were present during the CM's visit.

LGBTQ open letter to our fellow Tennesseans
An open letter from Tennessee's LGBTQ community to our fellow Tennesseans
As members of the LGBTQ community, we write to our fellow Tennesseans a month after the election and a month before the upcoming state legislative session.
In recent weeks members of our community have experienced grave assaults on our safety and dignity. A gay, gender nonconforming man was murdered. A transgender woman's car was burned. The signs and doors of a church that affirms our community have been vandalized. A gay couple received a package with a knife sticking out and a message attached urging them to leave the state.
These attacks upon individuals and institutions have put our lives and safety at even greater risk than usual. They contravene the welcoming traditions of hospitality for which Tennessee is known.
The time we have entered is critical. Many are calling for healing in the wake of a divisive election. Healing is difficult while fresh wounds are being inflicted such as discriminatory state legislation.
So we are speaking out for our safety, dignity, and equal rights under the law.
Our struggle is not against your values, unless you value discrimination. LGBTQ Tennesseans are your neighbors, your family members, your health care providers, firefighters, grocery clerks, teachers, elected officials, and we fill many other roles vital to the life of small towns and large cities. Many of us grew up and continue to be active in the same faith communities as you.
In the long story of our community's struggles, we have relied on our own strength to sustain us. We have also experienced the joy of working with countless allies. Now is a time for allies to speak out with us and we invite people of good will throughout the state to build a stronger, inclusive, welcoming Tennessee to meet our state's common challenges together.
If you share these values and priorities, we invite you to add your name to this letter.
