Pacific Justice Institute
The Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) is an anti-LGBT hate group founded in 1997 by Brad Dacus. PJI and Dacus have compared legalized gay marriage to Hitler and the Nazis' ascent in Germany; endorsed so-called "reparative" or sexual orientation conversion therapy; claimed marriage equality would lead to legal polygamy and incest; fought against protections for trans children and fabricated a story of harassment by a trans student; and said that LGBT History Month promotes gay pornography to children.

SPLC Designated Hate Group
Anti-LGBT
Founded in 1997 by attorney Brad Dacus, who is currently its president, the Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) calls itself a "legal organization specializing in the defense of religious freedom, parental rights, and other civil liberties." Throughout its existence PJI has proved to be a hate group, often given a platform by conservative media to promote its anti-LGBT falsehoods.
PJI and Dacus advocated for California's Proposition 8, which banned gay marriage in the state before the law was ruled unconstitutional, with PJI alleging gay marriage would lead to legalized polygamy and incest; fought against a California ban on so-called "reparative" or sexual orientation conversion therapy, endorsing the debunked practice; testified before congress against hate crime legislation protecting LGBT people; fought and later tried to overturn a California law protecting trans students' rights; fabricated a story of a trans teen harassing cisgender teens at school; and pushed falsehoods like the assertion that homosexuality is more dangerous than chain smoking cigarettes, LGBT History Month in schools promotes gay pornography, and greeting cards for gay couples lead children to make "potentially deadly decisions." Dacus, who once compared failure to pass a ban on gay marriage to failure to stop Adolf Hitler and the Nazis, has his own internet radio show and has been a favorite anti-LGBT guest on Fox News and other conservative media outlets.
In its own words
"There was another time in history when people, when the bell tolled. And the question was whether or not they were going to hear it. The time was during Nazi Germany with Adolf Hitler. You see, he brought crowds of clergy together to assure them that he was going to look after the church. And one of the members, bold and courageous, Reverend Niemöller, made his way to the front and boldly said, 'Hitler, we are not concerned about the church. Jesus Christ will take care of the church. We are concerned about the soul of Germany.' Embarrassed and chagrined, his peers quickly shuffled him to the back. And as they did, Adolf Hitler said, 'The soul of Germany, you can leave that to me.' And they did, and because they did bombs did not only fall upon the nation of Germany but also upon the church and their testimony to this very day. Let us not make that mistake folks. Let us hear the bell! Vote on Proposition 8!"
—PJI founder and president Brad Dacus, comparing failure to pass legislation banning gay marriage to failing to stop Hitler, 2008
"It is fundamentally unjust for the government to treat some crime victims more favorably than others, just because they are homosexual or transsexual."
—PJI founder and president Brad Dacus, commenting on President Obama signing the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr., Hate Crimes Prevention Act into law, 2009
"Most parents do not want their first through fifth graders bombarded with pro-homosexual messages at school. If LGBT advocates really want to stop name-calling and bullying, they should start with themselves."
—PJI founder and president Brad Dacus, arguing against a school district's anti-bullying curriculum, 2009
"The more we analyze the full implications of Judge Walker's Prop. 8 decision, the more apparent it becomes that we are fighting for the soul of Western civilization. Man-woman marriage is not just a religious or Judeo-Christian ideal; it has been affirmed by all cultures in every part of the world for all of recorded history."
—PJI founder and president Brad Dacus, 2009
"No student in America should be forced to support an ideological message that he or she disagrees with. If a school allows students to show 'Gay Pride,' then they must also allow students to express 'Straight Pride.'"
—PJI staff attorney Matthew McReynolds in a press release, 2011
"There's overwhelming evidence that reparative therapy actually works… I know it's at least over 80 percent, I believe it's 80 to 85 percent success rate. These are people who leave the lifestyle, get married to people, have children, and enter heterosexual relationships. It's a big mass of deception that they are trying to carry out at the expense of many hundreds of thousands or millions of youths who will be led down a path of death and destruction, unfortunately, if they get away with this… Parents know that the homosexual lifestyle gives for boys an average lifespan of the age of 40. It's worse than being a chain cigarette smoker."
—PJI founder and president Brad Dacus, opposing a California ban on sexual orientation conversion therapy on the "Janet Mefferd Radio Show," 2012
"If the Supreme Court rules that the Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional and that the definition of marriage as between one man and one woman is unconstitutional, then we're basically going to have an open heyday for homosexual marriage as well as other kinds of 'marriage' being introduced and being protected through this case law precedent, such as polygamy, perhaps adult incest and who knows what else will be attempted to be added on."
—PJI founder and president Brad Dacus on VCY America's radio show, "Crosstalk," 2012
"Forcing boys and girls to share bathrooms, locker rooms and sleeping arrangements is not equality; it is insanity."
—PJI founder and president Brad Dacus opposing a California law allowing access to facilities based on gender identity, 2013.
"This is exactly the kind of horror story we have been warning would accompany the push for radical transgender rights in schools, and it is the type of situation that LGBT activists have been insisting would not happen."
—PJI staff attorney Matthew McReynolds, in a press release falsely announcing a transgender teen had harassed other students in a high school bathroom, 2013.
PJI founder Brad Dacus first made headlines as an anti-LGBT activist in 1993, when he represented a Baptist minister, Eugene Lumpkin, who San Francisco Mayor Frank Jordan removed from the city's Human Rights Commission after Lumpkin endorsed the biblical punishment of stoning homosexuals to death. Dacus claimed Lumpkin's dismissal from the Human Rights Commission, which investigates discrimination and hate crimes, was a violation of his freedom of religion.
In 1997, Dacus represented a parent from Alameda, California, who was pushing to get a lesbian fifth and sixth-grade teacher fired after a seven-minute, student-initiated classroom discussion about the episode of the sitcom "Ellen" where the lead character, played by Ellen Degeneres, comes out as gay. The teacher was cleared of any wrongdoing by the school board and the state Commission on Teacher Credentialing.
After the formation of PJI, Dacus and another attorney from the organization represented the Sea Scouts, a boating-oriented division of the Boy Scouts of America, in a lawsuit against the City of Berkeley, California. Berkeley had enacted a policy forbidding the use of city funds to subsidize activities of private groups using city property at its marina if those groups discriminate against individuals; the Sea Scouts, like the Boy Scouts, prohibited gays and atheists from membership, thus Berkeley began charging the Sea Scouts for their use of the marina, which the Sea Scouts previously used free of charge. Dacus sued Berkeley, alleging a violation of the Sea Scouts' First Amendment rights and breach of contract, but the lawsuit was dismissed after repeated appeals by PJI and the Sea Scouts.
The Sea Scout case established PJI's modus operandi: When anti-LGBT discrimination is challenged, PJI and Dacus cry out in the courts and the media that the violators' First Amendment rights to freedom of religion and freedom of speech and 14th Amendment rights to equal protection have been violated.
In 2002, the Hayward Unified School District in California's Bay Area instituted mandatory sensitivity training for teachers regarding LGBT students. Four teachers from Tennyson High School asked to opt out, but the principal denied their request. The four teachers did not attend the training session and were docked a half day's pay, after which Dacus and PJI stepped in. "The issue was the intolerance of the school district… that would force teachers to compromise their convictions as Christians," Dacus told a conservative internet publication.
Dacus's star continued to rise in anti-LGBT circles when he testified in front of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security in 2007 against the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act (a fact Dacus brags about in his online biography). The legislation, which would later become the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr., Hate Crimes Prevention Act when signed into law by President Obama in 2009, sought to add gender, sexual orientation, gender identity and disability as motivations to qualify as federal hate crimes.
Again, Dacus employed a First Amendment argument. "The rationale behind hate crimes laws and similar efforts to provide greater protections to one group over another is undermining basic constitutional protections, including free expression and freedom of religion," he told the subcommittee. "A decision by Congress to inject the federal government into the culture wars and fundamental theological disputes can only engender further divisiveness and limitations on free speech."
When the bill became law in 2009, Dacus decried the legislation. "It is fundamentally unjust for the government to treat some crime victims more favorably than others, just because they are homosexual or transsexual," he said in a press release, which also stated, "Critics fear that the law will be used to intimidate and silence moral opposition to homosexuality," and said PJI was "committed to defending anyone who is prosecuted under the new hate crimes law because of their religious expression."
In 2008, when a proposition to ban gay marriage in California (Proposition 8) was to go before voters, Dacus was unsurprisingly an advocate of the ballot proposition. In a now-infamous video, Dacus compared failure to pass the gay marriage ban to the failure to stop Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.
There was another time in history when people, when the bell tolled. And the question was whether or not they were going to hear it. The time was during Nazi Germany with Adolf Hitler. You see, he brought crowds of clergy together to assure them that he was going to look after the church," Dacus said into the microphone at a pro-Proposition 8 street rally.
And one of the members, bold and courageous, Reverend Niemöller, made his way to the front and boldly said, 'Hitler, we are not concerned about the church. Jesus Christ will take care of the church. We are concerned about the soul of Germany.' Embarrassed and chagrined, his peers quickly shuffled him to the back. And as they did, Adolf Hitler said, 'The soul of Germany, you can leave that to me.' And they did, and because they did bombs did not only fall upon the nation of Germany, but also upon the church and their testimony to this very day. Let us not make that mistake folks. Let us hear the bell! Vote on Proposition 8!
Proposition 8 won at the polls but was later declared unconstitutional by federal courts. During the legislation's serpentine journey through appeals courts, PJI filed an amicus brief in support of the gay marriage ban, making the claim that although "homosexuality was widely practiced in ancient Greece and Rome, the brief shows, leading thinkers of the time strongly supported traditional marriage." Addressing the federal district court judge who had previously struck down Proposition 8, PJI chief counsel Kevin Snider, the author of the amicus brief, said, "By calling support for traditional marriage norms irrational, Judge Walker has not only insulted the majority of Californians and Americans, but also some of the greatest minds in history, including Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and Cicero. Calling these luminaries irrational is itself irrational."
PJI kicked off 2009 by warning parents of schoolchildren about "No Name-Calling Week," an initiative sponsored by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) to end bullying and name-calling of LGBT youth in public schools nationwide. In the PJI press release, Dacus is quoted as saying, "We can all agree that bullying is wrong for any reason. It's unfortunate that groups like GLSEN can't resist turning an otherwise worthy goal into a platform for promoting homosexuality to students as young as first grade."
Another effort to curtail homophobia in public schools, this time in the Alameda Unified School District in California's Bay Area, was characterized by PJI as "School District Seeks to Re-Educate 'Homophobic' Kindergartners." PJI sued on behalf of parents trying to opt their kids out of the anti-bullying curriculum, but a judge ruled against them in late 2009. PJI promised to appeal the judge's ruling if the school board didn't end the curriculum, and the school board capitulated, dropping the program just a week after the judge's order.
In 2010, when a student in Springfield, Oregon, wore a "Straight Pride" t-shirt to high school on the anti-LGBT-bullying "Day of Silence," school authorities told the student to remove the shirt. PJI jumped in the next year in advance of the 2011 Day of Silence, representing the student and sending the school a letter demanding shirts with such messages be allowed. PJI attorney Matthew McReynolds said in a press release, "No student in America should be forced to support an ideological message that he or she disagrees with. If a school allows students to show 'Gay Pride,' then they must also allow students to express 'Straight Pride.'" The high school complied with PJI's demand.
A bill was introduced in the California legislature in 2012 to ban so-called "reparative" therapy, or sexual orientation conversion therapy, for minors in the state, and make "therapeutic deception" by practitioners of conversion therapy an actionable offense; adults seeking such treatment would be required to sign a release form acknowledging the counseling is ineffective and potentially dangerous. The bill defined "therapeutic deception" as "a representation by a psychotherapist that sexual orientation change efforts… can or will reduce or eliminate a person's sexual or romantic desires, or conduct toward another person of the same sex." Conversion therapy has proven to be junk science.
PJI and Dacus were swift to oppose the legislation. Dacus called the bill "a child's welfare issue," and, alleging that sexual molestation causes confusion about sexual orientation, stated, "to deprive these young people of quality psychiatric counseling and therapy is a gross and outrageous violation against humanity."
Dacus took to conservative talk radio to decry banning conversion therapy. "There's overwhelming evidence that reparative therapy actually works," he said, citing discredited conversion therapist Joseph Nicolosi. "I know it's at least over 80 percent, I believe it's 80 to 85 percent success rate. These are people who leave the lifestyle, get married to people, have children, and enter heterosexual relationships. It's a big mass of deception that they are trying to carry out at the expense of many hundreds of thousands or millions of youths who will be led down a path of death and destruction, unfortunately, if they get away with this."
Dacus further alleged, "parents know that the homosexual lifestyle gives for boys an average lifespan of the age of 40. It's worse than being a chain cigarette smoker."
Governor Jerry Brown signed the conversion therapy ban into law in late 2012, and PJI was quick to file a lawsuit challenging it, on behalf of a minister and conversion therapist in San Diego.
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against PJI's challenge to the conversion therapy ban in 2013. "This is clearly a dark day for those who appreciate the First Amendment's protection of free speech and free exercise of religion," Dacus told The New York Times. "And it's an even darker day for every young person under the age of 18 who is struggling with same-sex attraction and wants a licensed counselor who can help them mitigate or reduce such attractions."
When the Supreme Court was considering in 2012 whether to overturn the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which defined marriage as between one man and one woman, Dacus took to the internet airwaves to declare, "If the Supreme Court rules that the Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional… then we're basically going to have an open heyday for homosexual marriage as well as other kinds of 'marriage' being introduced and being protected through this case law precedent, such as polygamy, perhaps adult incest and who knows what else will be attempted to be added on."
The Supreme Court overturned DOMA in June 2013; polygamous and incestual marriages were not legalized.
An image from PJI opposing California AB1266 that would allow transgender students to "be permitted to participate in sex-segregated school programs, activities, and use facilities consistent with their gender identity." The bill passed.
In 2013, PJI launched an attack on two proposed California state legislative bills. One would have revoked tax exemptions for youth nonprofits, such as the Boy Scouts, that don't accept gay or transgender members (that bill failed in the legislature). The other, California's School Success and Opportunity Act, or AB1266, codified that transgender students "be permitted to participate in sex-segregated school programs, activities, and use facilities consistent with their gender identity, without respect to the gender listed in a pupil's records."
PJI started a new website, genderinsanity.com, to oppose both pieces of legislation. "Forcing boys and girls to share bathrooms, locker rooms and sleeping arrangements is not equality; it is insanity," Dacus said in a press release.
In July, PJI tweeted:
California Governor Jerry Brown signed the act into law on August 12, 2013, and genderinsanity.com soon went defunct, merely redirecting to a PJI web page complaining about the bill's passage. PJI attempted a signature drive to get an initiative repealing the law on the ballot, but failed to get enough valid signatures.
But PJI and Dacus's assault on trans students was only beginning.
On October 10, 2013, PJI issued a press release titled "Nightmare: Teen Boy Harasses Girls in Their Bathroom, Colo. School Tells Girls They Have No Rights." It told the story of a trans teen "entering girls' bathrooms" at a Colorado high school and "even making sexually harassing comments toward girls he was encountering."
Other than using the wrong gender pronoun for the trans teen, PJI's entire story of harassment was found to be fabricated, but not before conservative news outlets including Fox News ran with the story.
PJI's allegations were debunked when the school superintendent, Rhonda Vendetti, told The Transadvocate in an interview, "This is one parent basically bringing their viewpoint about this situation to the media because they weren't getting the responses that they hoped they would get from the district, from parents of students at the high school, or from the board and myself… But to our knowledge and based on our investigation, none of those things have actually happened. We do have a transgender student at the high school and she has been using the women's restroom. There has not been a situation."
In the face of having its prevarication about harassment exposed, PJI was less than contrite. In a follow-up press release, Dacus was quoted saying, "The central issue in this case — a high school's decision to give a biological teenage boy full access to teenage girls' bathrooms is both disturbing and not seriously disputed."
In the wake of PJI's false attacks on the transgender teen, The Transadvocate reported she was on suicide watch. But that wasn't enough for PJI.
In January 2014, PJI submitted a draft policy to administrators at the trans teen's Colorado high school, wherein trans students could use facilities "consistent with asserted gender identity" unless "a sincere objection" was raised by a cisgender person.
Discussing California's new law, implemented January 1, 2014, allowing trans students to use facilities consistent with their gender identity, Dacus told radio host Laura Ingraham, "the law allows them to change [gender identity] every day if they want."
Dacus's characterization of the law is incorrect. Equality Matters spoke to school district spokespersons who "stated eligibility for the law should be determined on a case-by-case basis, with counselors and other professionals ensuring that a student's gender identity is consistent and persistent."
"We don't let children [decide], 'I'm gonna be a girl during P.E. and the rest of the day I'm going to be a boy,'" a representative from the Los Angeles Unified School District clarified.
While spreading lies about trans students, PJI took the time in October 2013 to pronounce, "LGBT History Month Promotes Gay Porn to Kids."
Dacus and PJI remain undeterred in the face of their false claims being exposed. In October 2014, Dacus talked on his radio program about seeing greeting cards for gay couples at Target, and deciding to boycott the store because he couldn't support such a "propaganda campaign that's going to lead a lot of young people to make bad decisions, very costly, potentially deadly decisions in their life."
And in 2015, PJI was pushing yet another false narrative of harassment by LGBT youth, again on Fox News. The story alleged that students at a Lafayette, California high school were bullied by the school's Queer Straight Alliance during a presentation. But the school's superintendent clearly told Equality Matters, "Did not happen."
"An examination of the program and classroom environment would suggest gross inaccuracies in the Pacific Justice Institute press release," the superintendent wrote. "It is not clear what other primary source Fox News used for their reporting, but their 'opinion' piece on the program does not reflect what actually took place."
Fox News' affinity for PJI and Dacus continues, and the relationship is obviously reciprocal. In October 2017, PJI held a "Celebration of Justice: 20 Years Defending Freedom" event, which was hosted by anti-LGBT and anti-Muslim Fox News pundit Todd Starnes, and featured Fox News personality Greg Gutfeld, who also blogs at Breitbart, as its keynote speaker.

How Diamonds Help Preserve Wilderness
by Woodeex team | Feb 19, 2021 | DIAMOND INDUSTRY | 0 comments
Did you know that the diamond mining industry directly manages and funds conservation and environmental programs around the world?
Indeed, today's leading natural diamond producers have committed themselves to protecting the wilderness and wildlife in the areas where they mine. They now protect a combined area of 325 square miles — roughly the size of New York City.
They've partnered with local governments, communities, and organizations on a series of initiatives with the goal of protecting vulnerable wildlife, such as caribou, grizzly bears, elephants, reindeer, among many others, whether in Canada, Botswana, Australia, Russia, South Africa or Tanzania.
For example, in Yakutia, a remote region in eastern Russia, ALROSA is helping preserve the rich natural environment in the surrounding region with the Living Diamonds of Yakutia Natural Park. Thanks to their conservation effort, this park enables musk sheep, yaks, Yakut horses, bears, reindeer, rabbits, and peacocks to thrive.
Another example is De Beers Group, which dedicates six hectares of land to nature conservation for every hectare of land used for mining. De Beers Group has therefore set aside approximately 200,000 hectares of land around its mines that includes a 15,669-hectare game park in Botswana, home to over 1,700 animals.
De Beer Group has also partnered with Peace Parks Foundation to establish the Moving Giants project. Their mission is to move 200 elephants from one of their reserves – where the elephants have thrived so successfully that there is now overpopulation – to Mozambique, with the goal of rebuilding the country's depleted elephant population.
Petra Diamonds has been equally involved in preserving endangered species. In fact, over 50% of the land owned and managed by Petra Diamonds has become nature reserves committed to protecting biodiversity in South Africa and Tanzania.
As you can see, leading diamond producers honor this deep connection between diamonds and the earth. Their initiatives and collaborations have already proven to be invaluable in improving wildlife and wilderness preservation, and we expect to see even more positive trends in the near future.
At Woodeex, we carefully select diamonds for their ethical and environmentally responsible origins. We make sure that the diamonds originate from mines or countries that have shown a
profound commitment in following internationally recognized trade, labor, and environmental standards.
The best way to purchase diamonds
Woodeex gives you access to its exclusive network of professional diamond dealers. Buy your diamond directly at the source, in an inventory from the world's largest Diamond Exchanges located at Antwerp, Ramat-Gan, Mumbai and New-York. Woodeex is the guarantee of the best value for money.

2018 Ford Bronco Engine, Design and Release Date – Once more Ford company consists of an odd cure on SUV field. We realize that unique Ford Bronco will undoubtedly try to ensure us of new features of current day Sports vitality vehicles. First styles outdated back in 1996, now there is an entirely new neighborhood of trucks and also a lot more radiant business. Some enhancements have a higher incentive additionally some of these individuals esthetic. Assessment of final create are typically inside our salons as a result of the way from the summary of 2018 so, we are in a position to claim that stress-filled is also higher, even exist. Thus there is no real surprise that Ford does not make any blunders.
Ford knows how to use outstanding commercial top quality and standard. Although the body of the Ford Bronco is undoubtedly going to be the little sharper, at the exact same time, it will likely be quickly obtainable in many color option. The entry side portion of a fender will probably be slightly various. Nevertheless, it will not alter the crucial concept. Vendors are growing location of materials, so the outer shell is less dense than merely just before merely because they had been utilizing lightweight aluminum and base, precious alloys. As considerably novelties are exterior we may believe the exact same from within. The cabin is probably roomy with all-natural leather-based parts decorated with the 5-sitting down the kitchen counter. Numerous technicians technique has updated these kinds of as foods selection and essential simple primary safety system.
Listed below the sure Ford Bronco is likely to use a whole lot of factors offering from the sibling, the actual Ranger. In fact, it is actually perhaps the two most significant are sharing the very same dashboard, tool group, infotainment method and seats' design. The only actual distinctions on this site will probably be the products. The Bronco ideas have to be more powerful and much better to clean just because of the meant use thoroughly.
This Ford Bronco will never ever at any time feature effortlessly-removed doorways or windshield which is an embarrassment. Fortunately, in spite of the fact that, it would appear that Ford could have this safeguarded. The Bronco is supposed to beget a modular device where the entrance doors could be quickly exchangeable to give it time and energy to become simple to repair. Also, instead of a soft-top, the Bronco will characteristic a modular difficult-best which is effortlessly removed and maintained inside an of-of pickup truck. The finished design has but to possess subject; however, it seems Ford might possibly try to find determination on the earlier models of the Bronco selection. This could advise a contemporary day-conventional design just like precisely what Jeep is a venture for the Wrangler. Some also suggested that the Bronco could be a modern day-searching crossover so that factors will likely be compelling either way.
The engine is as every person is aware a heart of the car. So, we might assume several options for this specific click teach. If we as a purchaser include an alternate, this implies we are in a position to choose our powertrain locations. The most reliable choice for Ford Bronco is 5.-lability V-8, which creates 365 Hewlett Packard and 400 lb-feet of torque. All following combos are very helpful for every single forthcoming strength instructor. There isn't a lot of amounts of these specs. Despite the fact that, it is certain that within one stage base strength trainer rises.

Yeah! All Right!
Memo to Connecticut: DO YOU REALIZE HOW DUMB YOU WERE YET?
Serioiusly, what the fuck? Have you woken up yet and taken a long, hard look at what you got in bed with in November? Any pangs of regret down there in my old Nutmeggian stomping grounds? You could have had a perfectly respectable freshman Democratic senator, like so many other states did. They're the trendy new accessory. But you had to keep your ratty old Lieberman, thinking he'd keep bringing you that sweet sweet submarine base lovin'.
But you must realize by now he's completely fucking insane. Even by Lieberman standards, he's been pulling back the skin mask and showing his lizard face a LOT lately. And you're stuck with him for five more fucking years. I'm sorry, what was the problem with Ned Lamont again? Was it that he wouldn't take strong, insane pro-Bush stands such as... ACTUAL QUOTE TIME!
"A Senate-passed resolution of disapproval for this new strategy in Iraq would give the enemy some encouragement, some feeling that—well, some clear expression that the American people were divided." - Lieberman, during a hearing on new Iraq commander David Petraeus.
I mean, the guy admits to the New Yorker that he's read, and quotes from, "America Alone" by Mark Steyn. Specifically, Lieberman says he often quotes the bits about "the power of demographics, in Europe particularly. That's what struck me the most."
Which sounds innocent enough. Politicians are concerned with demographics. But Steyn's book is about Islamic expansionism. So the "demographics" Lieberman were so struck by are the ones that predict doom if white people don't get on the ball and start making white babies, lest the world be overrun by rapidly-breeding radical Muslims. Now to be fair, Connecticut voters had no way of knowing that Lieberman was running on a "fewer Muslim babies" ticket back in November, but there was plenty of evidence that Lieberman was FUCKING NUTS. The demographics thing is just gratuitous confirmation.
For example, for the better part of the last DECADE, I've known Lieberman as "Joystick Joe" because of his ridiculous fear that violent video games would create entire generations of slack-jawed, amoral, violent youths. Now, sane people realize that while media can be influential, their impact is tiny compared to core values instilled by parents and society. So where, exactly, did Lieberman get the idea that violent media could drastically affect someone's worldview?
Well, there's a charming anecdote in that New Yorker profile that may give us all some clues.
"A few years ago, I was in a movie theatre in Washington when I noticed Lieberman and his wife, Hadassah, a few seats down. The film was "Behind Enemy Lines," in which Owen Wilson plays a U.S. pilot shot down in Bosnia. Whenever the American military scored an onscreen hit, Lieberman pumped his fist and said, 'Yeah!' and 'All right!' - Jeffrey Goldberg.
Ho. Ly. Shit. First of all, the guy enjoyed "Behind Enemy Lines". That should be grounds to question his judgment right there. But getting all worked up every time the Americans shot a dirty celluloid foreigner? I mean, even accounting for the fact that it was only a few months after September 11, anyone getting shot by Americans in this movie were EASTERN EUROPEANS.
At the risk of getting into pop psychoanalysts, the reason Lieberman thinks we're all puppet-slaves who dance to the emotional strings pulled by the entertainment industry is because Joe Fucking Lieberman, elder statesman, can get a Levitra-sized jingo-stiffy from a crappy Owen Wilson movie! And if that can happen to him, what chance does a twelve-year-old have resisting the demonic pull of Scorpion's grappling hook special?
Feeling buyer's remorse yet, Connecticut? I hope so. Because Lieberman's entering serious Joseph Heller Character territory here. If he grabs a cowboy hat and rides the first nuke into Iran, I will be the least surprised person in this country.

Featured Enterprise, Georgia Social Impact Collaborative
Atlanta Emerging Markets Inc., Spanx by Sara Blakely Foundation, and the Center for Civic Innovation Continue Support of Civic Problem-Solvers
Invest Atlanta/Center for Civic Innovation
Originally posted on Invest Atlanta
Four Atlanta social ventures have been awarded a total of $200,000 by the Spanx by Sara Blakely Foundation and Atlanta Emerging Markets, Inc. (AEMI) through the Civic Impact Loan Fund. This loan fund is an effort created in partnership with the Center for Civic Innovation (CCI) to support early-stage civic entrepreneurs in scaling their businesses and expanding their community impact in Atlanta.
The Civic Impact Loan Fund, created in December 2016 by Atlanta Emerging Markets, Inc. in partnership with the Center for Civic Innovation, is an innovative investment tool that provides flexible, zero-interest loans to entrepreneurs who have early-stage businesses that are making a difference in their local communities.
"We are proud to continue supporting civic-minded businesses and those working on the front lines to make a positive impact on other people's lives," said Stephen McRae, President of AEMI. "These outstanding entrepreneurs are not only bringing new business ideas to life, but they are also showing their commitment to creating equity in our underserved communities. I wish each of these entrepreneurs continued success and admire their dedication to making Atlanta a greater city for all."
The Spanx by Sara Blakely Foundation was founded in 2006 with a mission to support and empower women through education, entrepreneurship, and the arts. The contribution from the Sara Blakely Foundation ensured that at least $100,000 of the fund went to women-led ventures.
"For me, this is about investing in the person, not just the business," said Sara Blakely, Founder and CEO of Spanx and the Spanx by Sara Blakely Foundation. "Not only do I believe we need to close the gap in women's access to capital, I believe we need to give these women the holistic support that will enable them to soar. After providing them with a year of mentorship and training in partnership with CCI, we are celebrating their success and excited to invest in their businesses so they can grow and scale their impact."
AEMI and the Spanx by Sara Blakely Foundation each contributed $100,000 to fund early-stage civic entrepreneurs. The applicants selected to receive the $200,000 in total funding are Civic Dinners, The Showcase Group, Brown Toy Box, and SwemKids (The William Pleshette Company). All four of the entrepreneurs leading these organizations are recent graduates of CCI's Civic Innovation Residency program, a one-year intensive leadership, business development, and coaching program for civic entrepreneurs in the greater Atlanta-area that was sponsored by the Spanx by Sara Blakely Foundation. CCI also provided deal sourcing, underwriting, mentorship, and programmatic support, with loan servicing and back office support provided by Invest Atlanta.
"These civic problem solvers represent the greatest assets of our economy," said Rohit Malhotra, Founder and Executive Director of the Center for Civic Innovation. "Each of their businesses exists to solve a specific systemic challenge, and their success will create ripple effects for generations. Civic Entrepreneurship is in Atlanta's DNA. We're just shining a light on the people who are on the ground, doing the work."
The 2019 recipients are:
Jenn Graham | Civic Dinners aims to help create a more inclusive world where everyone feels invited and engaged in co-creating a better future by bringing people together over food for conversations that matter.
John Kennebrew | The Showcase Group works to strengthen justice-involved youth and families through psychological and personal development services inside and out of juvenile detention centers. Showcase Group provides support to incarcerated youth and their families by implementing psychosocial services such as advocacy and family and individual therapy by trained professionals.
Terri Nichelle-Bradley | Brown Toy Box produces children's products and exposure experiences designed to encourage and prepare black children to pursue interests and careers in STEAM.
Trish Miller | SwemKids (The William Pleshette Company) is a 501(c)(3) school-based program that teaches children introductory swimming lessons and water safety skills as a part of their school's curriculum. The William Pleshette Company, Swem Kids' for-profit entity, is designing and testing a fully waterproof swimming cap to keep thick and curly hair dry in the water and address a cultural obstacle to swimming.
"This contribution is really going to take The Showcase Group to the next level," said John Kennebrew, Executive Director and Founder of The Showcase Group. "We've grown from working with two youth out of the detention center to working with one hundred youth this year. Now, we're able to put a Program Director in place to manage the logistics of working with the clinical social workers, advocates, and other community members who help to strengthen the youth we work with. It's a great relief to now have someone who can manage the day to day relationships, while I can focus on taking the organization to the next level."
Now in its third year of operation, the Civic Impact Loan Fund has provided $455,000 to a diverse group of early-stage businesses in many different impact areas, including community development, the arts, wellness, and education.

This VP Proves Impact Investments Yield Big Returns For Investors And Commu... Forbes Valor Ventures Smart Investors Use "Inclusion Premium" Thinking, and Here's Why


Normally, when we embark on a fitness program to improve our health we are often fueled by pleasant thoughts of a newer improved self, with stronger muscles, more flexibility, smaller waist and fewer pounds on the body.
These thoughts can sometimes motivate us to surge forward, full steam ahead toward our prize of improved health.
This drive can assist us in starting or maintaining a fitness regimen, however, we must also be conscious of the fact that exercise is repetitive motion that places stress on the body.
When exercising, we must not only use caution to prevent injury, but we need to be prepared to handle it accordingly, when faced with the situation.
The cost of injury often includes more than time or money.
Injuries can take a toll on a person's enthusiasm for a typically safe and fun activity.
Many injuries occur because participants do not rest their muscles and joints adequately, or they increase their workout loads too rapidly.
This leads to overuse, exercise induced weakness and injury.
Exercisers can best prevent injury by applying knowledge and precaution.
Hopefully this week's information will be helpful to you in identifying and preventing exercise-related injuries.
An injury represents trauma to tissue sufficient to cause disability, pain, swelling and sometimes weakness.
Exercise participants may suffer sprains, strains, stress fractures, cartilage damage, nerve irritation and muscle soreness injuries.
Acute injuries are a single incident of trauma, disability or severe pain.
They come on suddenly with a definite incident associated with the injury, such as spraining an ankle during a fall.
Chronic injuries develop more gradually and may not be associated with a specific incident.
Symptoms of a chronic injury are generally more prolonged and often less disabling than those experienced with an acute injury.
Chronic injuries may develop gradually with repeated overuse, unbearable workload, poor lifting techniques or inappropriate use of training equipment.
First thing first, it is always best to have any injury looked at by your health care professional immediately.
They have the required knowledge and training to properly diagnose, treat and provide the best possible care for your injury.
Getting the best care is very important because you are more likely to obtain a full recovery for the injured area.
When recovery is attained, your fitness program can continue to move forward toward your goals, but of course, only with your doctor's approval.
The tissues healing process generates inelastic and weak scar tissue that can rupture more easily than healthy tissue. To prevent further injury, a person must strengthen muscles and related structures slowly before engaging in activities at the pre-injury exercise intensity.
Typically, if any participant experiences pain, swelling, or reduced range of motion for more than three days, they should cease exercise and consult their physician.
With assistance from your health care professional, a little motivation and commitment from yourself, you can recover from injury.
An injured person should set goals, follow a recovery plan, and proceed patiently.
Once recuperated a person should keep the area strong and flexible. A sports medicine or physical therapy specialist can provide a recovery and strength maintenance plan.
Everyone should strive to exercise and stay active their whole lives.
Preventing or minimizing acute and chronic injuries can greatly improve your ability to achieve life-long fitness goals. I know you will exhibit the dedication to attain yours.
Until next week train hard, rest more, think injury prevention, and keep up the good work!
