The United States of America UNDER Repair!
WHAT IS WRONG with the U.S.A.!
The OCCUPY movement is all about bringing light and awareness to the sleeping ignorant citizens of the country by educating them on the wrongs that the government is doing to them and on their behalf.
Here are a few summaries and links to what is wrong with the USA right now and why I lead the restoration efforts everywhere I travel! Fight now if you want to restore the original Constitution of the United States and retain your freedom and Bill of Rights!
First let's say WHAT IS RIGHT! The Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It IS THAT simple! I love it and honor and cherish it. Anything that oposes the founding fathers will find difficult obstacles surrounding my friends. Democratic governing provides the people freedoms and rights but what happens when the politicians are forced into corruption? Some give in easier then others while some just dissapear with no trace.
World power and dominance has been achieved beyond reason. Our borders are safe and secure and the people live in comfort but the US has expanded too far and enforces power beyond the reach of peaceful intention.
Here is a list of FACTS that are challenging the worlds respect for the United States of America and its citizens.
More like the Department of Privacy Invasion! The U.S.A. has invaded lands on foreign continents to prosper off their natural resources. After out growing our countries resources due to irresponsible reproduction and wasteful resource management, we use our media and scare tactics like 911 to influence the votes of our citizens and convince them we NEED TO Invade the privacy of selective citizens because THEY COULD BE A TERRORIST. We are already a world super power and are borders are safe and secluded. Regardless of how many defensive preventions we may have, a terrorist organization is not bombing inside our borders. We should not have military personel in foreign continents beyond the minimum security needed for our peace keeping Embassys and United Nations partners.
On our land we have a system that has become TOO DETAILED. We have over optimized our systems! In the early days we believed in our neighbors and took care of ourselves. Now we have placed too much power in others and we have alienated the peasants from the aristocrats.

WE RIG OUR ELECTIONS!
"With information provided from the Voter News Service, NBC was the first network to project Gore the winner in Florida at 7:48 pm.? At 7:50 pm ,CNN and CBS project Gore the winner in Florida as well." By 8:02 pm , all five networks and the Associated Press had called Gore the winner in Florida. Even the VNS called Gore the winner at 7:52 pm. At 2:16 am, Fox calls Florida for Bush, NBC follows at 2:16 am. ABC is the last network to call the Florida for Bush, at 2:20 am, while AP and VNS never call Florida for Bush. At 2:16 a.m., the call was made: Fox News Channel, with Bush's first cousin John Ellis running its election desk, was the first to project Florida — and the presidency — for the Texas governor.

Government officials were instructed to ignore Terrorism updates by Richard A. Clarke who was the head coordinator of National Security from 1992-2003. Here are some of his comments before resigning.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_A._Clarke
(after requesting a meeting with the Principal cabinet members in the months leading up to 9/11)
MR. CLARKE: I did get a response. The response was that in the Bush administration I should, and my committee, the counterterrorism security group, should report to the deputies committee, which is a sub-cabinet level committee, and not to the principals, and that therefore it was inappropriate for me to be asking for a principals meeting. Instead, there would be a deputies meeting.
MR. ROEMER: So, does this slow the process down to go to the deputies rather than to the principals or a small group, as you had previously done?
MR. CLARKE: It slowed it down enormously, by months. First of all, the deputies committee didn't meet urgently in January or February. Then, when the deputies committee did meet, it took the issue of al Qaeda as part of a cluster of policy issues, including nuclear proliferation in South Asia, democratization in Pakistan, how to treat the problems, the various problems, including narcotics and other problems in Afghanistan, and, launched on a series of deputies meetings extending over several months to address al Qaeda in the context of all of those interrelated issues. That process probably ended, I think, in July of 2001, so we were readying for a principals meeting in July, but the principals' calendar was full, and then they went on vacation, many of them, in August, so we couldn't meet in August, and therefore the principals met in September.
"The Aug. 6, 2001, document, known as the President's Daily Brief, has been the focus of intense scrutiny because it reported that bin Laden advocated airplane hijackings, that al-Qaida supporters were in the United States and that the group was planning attacks here." Clarke J. Scott, "Clarke Gave Warning on Sept. 4, 2001; Testimony Includes Apology to Families of Sept. 11 Victims, Associated Press, March 25, 2004.
"There is ample documentation demonstrating that the Reagan and Bush administrations supplied critical military technologies that were put directly to use in the construction of the Iraqi war machine. There is also strong evidence indicating that the executive branch's failure to crack down on illegal weapons traffickers or keep track of third party transfers of U.S. weaponry allowed a substantial flow of U.S.-origin military equipment and military components to make their way to Iraq." William D. Hartung, Weapons at War; A World Policy Institute Issue Brief, May 1995. See also, Alan Friedman, Spider's Web: The Secret History of How the White House Illegally Armed Iraq, (Bantam Books, 1993); Kenneth R. Timmerman, The Death Lobby: How the West Armed Iraq, (Houghton, Mifflin, 1991).
"The 27 classified pages of a congressional report about Sept. 11 depict a Saudi government that not only provided significant money and aid to the suicide hijackers but also allowed potentially hundreds of millions of dollars to flow to Al Qaeda and other terrorist groups through suspect charities and other fronts, according to sources familiar with the document. One U.S. official who has read the classified section said it describes 'very direct, very specific links' between Saudi officials, two of the San Diego-based hijackers and other potential co-conspirators 'that cannot be passed off as rogue, isolated or coincidental.'" Of all the hijackers, 15 of the 19 were Saudi. Josh Meyer, "Report Links Saudi Government to 9/11 Hijackers, Sources Say," Los Angeles Times, August 2, 2003.
WE AIDED the Deportation of the hired Terrorists! (aiding the debate that the corrupt politicians were calling the shots)
"Now, what I recall is that I asked for flight manifests of everyone on board and all of those names need to be directly and individually vetted by the FBI before they were allowed to leave the country. And I also wanted the FBI to sign off even on the concept of Saudis being allowed to leave the country. And as I recall, all of that was done. It is true that members of the Bin Laden family were among those who left. We knew that at the time. I can't say much more in open session, but it was a conscious decision with complete review at the highest levels of the State Department and the FBI and the White House." Testimony of Richard Clarke, Former Counter terrorism Chief, National Security Council, before The Senate Judiciary Committee, September 3, 2003.
"I was making or coordinating a lot of decisions on 9/11 and the days immediately after. And I would love to be able to tell you who did it, who brought this proposal to me, but I don't know. Since you pressed me, the two possibilities that are most likely are either the Department of State, or the White House Chief of Staff's Office. But I don't know." Testimony of Richard A. Clarke before the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, March 24, 2004.
After the airspace reopened, six chartered flights with 142 people,mostly Saudi Arabian nationals, departed from the United States between September 14 and 24. One flight, the so-called Bin Ladin flight, departed the United States on September 20 with 26 passengers, most of them relatives of Usama Bin Ladin. National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, Threats and Responses in 2001, Staff Statement No. 10, The Saudi Flights, p. 12; http://www.9-11commission.gov/hearings/hearing10/staff_statement_10.pdf
It should be noted that the US Customs and Border Protection document released by the Department of Homeland Security under the FOIA, Feb 24, 2004 lists 162 Saudi Nationals who flew out of the country between 9/11/2001 and 9/15/2001, departing from New York's Kennedy airport, Washington's Dulles, and Dallas Fort Worth. http://www.judicialwatch.org/archive/2004/homelandsecurity.pdf.
The U.S. shows Racist / Religious persecution against Muslims and others
"In the days, weeks and months following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, hundreds of American immigrants were rounded up and detained, often under harsh or abusive conditions, in the name of keeping America safe. Not because of evidence (or even sound hunches) that they were involved in the terrorist attacks that brutally ended the lives of more than 3,100 people. Not because they were found to have ties to – or even knowledge of – terrorist groups who might threaten American security in the future. Instead, hundreds of immigrants were arbitrarily snared in this dragnet, marked for arrest and thrown (literally, at times) in jail. The exact number is unknown, because the government refuses to release that information. They had one thing in common: Almost all were Arab or South Asian men, and almost all were Muslim… Once arrested, many immigrants were labeled "of interest" to the September 11 investigation and thrown into legal limbo – detained for weeks or months in connection with a criminal investigation, but denied the due process rights that they would have been entitled to had they actually been charged with crimes." ACLU, "America's Disappeared: Seeking International Justice for Immigrants Detained after September 11," January 2004.
In 1972, two airmen were suspended for failing to take their medical examination. One was George W. Bush and the other was James R. Bath. James R. Bath was the Texas money manager for the Bin Laden family and they invested in BUSH.
"According to a 1976 trust agreement, drawn shortly after [George H. W.] Bush was appointed director of the Central Intelligence Agency, Saudi Sheik Salem M. Binladen appointed Bath as his business representative in Houston. Binladen, along with his brothers, owns Binladen Brothers Construction, one of the largest construction companies in the Middle East."? Jerry Urban, "Feds Investigate Entrepreneur Allegedly Tied to Saudis," Houston Chronicle, June 4, 1992.
Mr. Bath invested in Mr. Bush's first major business venture, Arbusto Energy, in the late 1970's after Mr. Bath began working for Salem bin Laden. Jim Rutenberg, "A Film to Polarize Along Party Lines," New York Times, May 17, 2004.
Bath's business relationship with Salem bin Laden, and other wealthy Saudi businessmen, has been well documented.? See, e.g., Mike Ward, "Bin Laden Relatives Have Ties to Texas," Austin American-Statesman, November 9, 2001; Jerry Urban, "Feds Investigate Entrepreneur Allegedly Tied to Saudis," Houston Chronicle, June 4, 1992; Thomas Petzinger Jr., et al., "Family Ties: How Oil Firm Linked to a Son of Bush Won Bahrain Drilling Pact," The Wall Street Journal, December 6, 1991.
"[E]arly 1980s tax records reviewed by TIME show that Bath invested $50,000 in Bush's energy ventures and remained a stockholder until Bush sold his company to Harken in 1986." Jonathan Beaty, "A Mysterious Mover of Money and Planes," Time Magazine, October 28, 1991
Bush was investigated by the S.E.C.? The James Baker law partner who helped Bush beat the rap from the SEC was a man by the name of Robert Jordon, who, when George W. became president was appointed ambassador to Saudi Arabia.?
"A week before George W. Bush's 1990 sale of stock in Harken Energy Co., the firm's outside lawyers cautioned Bush and other directors against selling shares if they had significant negative information about the company's prospects.? The sale came a few months before Harken reported significant losses, leading to an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission.? The June 15, 1990, letter from the Haynes and Boone law firm wasn't sent to the SEC by Bush's attorney Robert W. Jordan until Aug. 22, 1991, according to a letter by Jordan.? That was one day after SEC staff members investigating the stock sale concluded there was insufficient evidence to recommend an enforcement action against Bush for insider trading." Peter Behr, "Bush Sold Stock After Lawyers' Warning," Washington Post, November 1, 2002.?

We process 95% of our food production!
Organic and home grown food is considered a trait of the past for most of our citizens!
OUR Food and Drug Administration SAYS:
"there is no absolute right to consume or feed children any particular kind of food [because] comprehensive federal regulation of the food supply has been in effect at least since Congress enacted the Pure Food and Drugs Act of 1906
"fundamental privacy interest in obtaining 'foods of their own choice' for themselves and their families is without merit."
Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund argues 2010 policy deprives consumers and a food buying group owner "of their fundamental and inalienable rights of (a) traveling across State lines with raw dairy products legally obtained and possessed; (b) providing for the care and well being of themselves and their families, including their children; and (c) producing, obtaining and consuming the foods of choice for themselves and their families, including their children."

We enforce paperwork and permits to grow a garden IF we sell/barter the extra produce. (BILL s.510).
Suppliers used to provide restaurants with meat that was slaughtered and ground a few hours earlier, the same day. Instead, they must now submit a sample of their meat to a lab where, in a few days, they'll be advised if it's safe to sell. Large industrial operations, which use meat glue to blend meat from different countries, send a sample from a million pounds of meat, giving them a huge competitive advantage over small producers who don't glue their meat together. The meat they sell to restaurants and grocers, Callicrate advised, is two weeks old.
Wisconsin Dept. of Ag held seminars the beginning of April to educate produce growers and packers as to what will be involved in inspections. The supporters of locally grown have been co-opted by the new slogan 'Buy local-Buy safely' – that unless the produce is inspected, it isn't safe.
Bed and breakfast operations cannot as institutions use their own eggs because of salmonella concerns and must buy federally inspected eggs. Even though they can sell the eggs at the farmers markets, they can't serve them to borders.
GOOGLE "raid on Maxam Nutraceutics" and "Rawesome Foods" for details on the latest enforcing actions.
Most recently, the FDA shut down Pennsylvania AMISH farmer Dan Algyer, though no one became ill from his natural milk. Morningland Cheese and Estrella Family Creamery are but two more in a long line of victims of the corporate war on natural food, though their products sickened no one. And most of the nation knows of the armed raid on Rawesome Foods last year. (Also see David Gumpert's book, The Raw Milk Revolution: Behind America's Emerging Battle Over Food Rights.)

We are dependent on Public Utilities!
Most the world lives sustainably with renewable energy and home grown food but not the U.S.A. We suck up 25% of the world's fossil fuel resources while draining farm chemicals into our Gulf and polluting our entire southern border with oil and natural gas spills.
We require automotive licensing and titling.
What is the purpose really? Used vehicles are not worth transfering titles. We are talking about an asset worth less then 1% of our net worth. It is not a home worth hundreds of thousands of dollars! We can pay road tax by a simple registration process matched with VIN #s. When was the last time your car was stolen and you had to have it pulled over on the road by identifying it with a license plate number? We pay insurance because a vehicle is a dangerous and causes death and bodily harm often in accidental form. That is why the concept of insurance was created.
We promote selective insurance!
So, you just bought a cheap electronic. Our current cultural society will recommend and strongly influence you to get insurance on it and that the seller must get liability insurance in case you slip on your way out. Then you will be solicited to get more insurance in case someone tries to steal your items. By the time you total up all the insurance you could just have replaced the items multiple times! INSURANCE IS OUT OF CONTROL IN THE U.S.A.
We try to require HEALTH insurance!
You can not seriously believe that is justified. IT IS PURE ANAL RETENTIVE! Health insurance was a ploy by Keiser Calimentae with President Nixon to increase the gap between the rich and the poor. It was a way to avoid a govermentally supported health care system and to help control population growth by denying millions of sick the care they needed to live.

Internal Revenue System enforces unlawful "rules" on income tax.
Constitution supports that income taxation is a moral obligation to be decided by the people to support the government but t can not be DEMANDED! There is no INCOME TAX LAW for citizens! The 16th Amendment was ruled as a CORPORATION TAX Amendment, yet people in poverty have been held against their will and robbed by the regulation agency. READ my blog titled "The Story of Income Tax".
In the begining, Congress (the true Law and Real Branch of Government) tried to stop the IRS but the power and reach of the agnecy had gotten out of control. The IRS grew too large to stop and future politicians would be too scared of the chaos that would arise if the rules were amended. I do not think a formal presidential statement, informing the United States citizens that "IRS income tax enforcement is hereby ended" would cause chaos. Large corporations would continue the recommended rules as their obligation to improve the economy and a status symbol amongst peers would influence most to do the same. The main difference would be that true patriots following the Constitution, would not be in jail and people like me, would not have had my life and banks accounts stolen from me!
WE ARE CENSORED and INVADED and OUR RIGHTS are INFRINGED!
Just a couple examples of Censorship
– In 2004, North Carolina ISP Madison River blocked their DSL customers from using any rival web-based phone service (like Vonage, Skype, etc.).
– In 2005, Canada's telephone giant Telus blocked customers from visiting a website sympathetic to the Telecommunications Workers Union during a labor dispute.
– In 2007, Rob Topolski created data Packet tracking on Comcasts network and found them controlling his bandwidth based on KEY WORD algorithyms. (measurementlab.net / http://funchords.livejournal.com )

I am currently working on a Comic Book that focuses on all the crap that is wrong and right with the USA. I can not even complete one story before another jumps up like this one about the possible Chemicals Released over Arkansas the last week of December 2010.
My Military sources swear that the ARK US AF Base does not fly any dispersal planes. It is also pointed out that there was no GAS Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) in Iraq AND that if there was a chemical spill there would be more then one type of bird and one type of fish involved!
As far as John Wheeler's role in all of this, we will have to rely on WikiLeaks to get us the truth beyond his classified work to see how much motive there really is beyond his murder!
It has been reported that tornado like winds could have killed the birds during the night. There was also a lot of loud firework/canon booms that could have scared them. The fish death is being blamed on disease since there was only one species in the mass kill-off.

12/7/xx Thinking About Pearl Harbor
Posted: December 7, 2010 in Helping Hands Events, Secrets, Table Of Contents, TRUTH / Occupy

In 1941 the US experienced one of it's largest tragedies. It is important to challenge ourselves by reading all the facts surrounding this days questionable events. Keep an open mind to the agenda behind the events…. no one can really be 100% certain unless you were connected to one of the agencies and had high level clearance to be privy to the details.
The point is, in the past our country has invaded lands like Hawaii for our own benefit. Our government would use the media to convince the people that the Political opinion was best. The US government supported the businessmen whom over threw the Hawaiin council in 1893 and then strategically placed their associates in key locations throughout the islands to operate new businesses. We were told that this had to be done to secure lookout stations in Pan Pacific for the West Coast of the US so the Japanese and Chinese could not setup bases there.
http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/HAWAII/leonsiu/2%20Misconceptions.htm
Over the years the US government controlled the Islands to make sure they were available come a time they wanted to invade Asian powers. FDR and his supporters wanted more power in Europe but the people and congress denied his attempts to expand so FDR decided to provoke Japan by sending them threats. If he could get approval to attack Japan, then he could send more troops into Western Europe once they got involved.
What is most important about the Pearl Harbor incident is understanding why FDR resorted to such measures in the first place to get into war. Hawaii is illegally being occupied by the United States and any situation that would benefit the USA's claim for the actions was taken advantage of.
1 Looking back at earliest records, the island Kingdom of Hawai'i and the surrounding islands would have minor battles with each other but they mostly kept to their own until the late 1700's as the growing presence of European explorers became threatening.
In 1795, Maui was forced into acknowledging Kamehameha I as King and Kaua'i followed in 1810. It was their best chance for preservation of the Hawai'ian customs. In 1819, Kamehameha I died and his son who had been declared King for several years banished religious positions that he saw as a threat to his rule.
The kingdom was shortly unified however because Christian missionaries had been allowed to live amongst them and groups of locals began to look to them to replace what the king was removing. In 1823, the King went to visit England and while he was gone one of his father's wives was left in charge as Regent. Ka`ahumanu declared Christianity the kingdoms formal religion.
Kamehameha II died from Measles while in route to see King George IV. His joint chiefs and his wife continued to meet with King George who formally titled their Sandwhich Islands to be a British Protectorate.
Over the following years the Hawai'ians continued to limit foreign stays and imprisoned those who caused trouble. The French King was not happy with reports of this and sent Captain Laplace with a war ship to impose a series of demands including the forced establishment of a Catholic Church and resident rights.
By 1840, the possibility of invasion from France and the United States Military forced Kamehameha III into structuring a constitution and amendments so Hawai'ians would be more confident in his government. France, Great Britain and the USA did not want to fight each other for the islands so they all agreed to remain mutual. On July 6, 1844, the USA declared Hawai'i an independent and sovereign State.
Over the next 30 years, citizens of the USA were allowed to live on the islands and take natives as mates allowing their presence to grow. The foreigners often refused to abide by the King's rules and the establishment of a common law system began to shift the power of rule.
In the summer of 1887, the Americans formed an armed militia called the Hawaiian League. They had grown so large in numbers that their demands had to be approved. Either they were to be added to the King's political cabinet or civil war would commence. This then granted Americans the power to replace the constitution and force the Hawai'ians to accept future American occupation laws to the voting ballet.
From 1892-96, USA President Grover Cleveland, stopped the annexation treaty attempted by the Hawaiian League but his successor, President William Mckinley, was caught in the middle of a war with Spain and could not argue against using Hawaiian ports for refueling naval ships on their way to battle Spain in Guam.
The excuse of using Hawai'i as a naval port during war against Spain was not challenged by Britain or France so the USA took the opportunity to keep a presence there after the Spanish-American war was over.
Spain threatened to occupy Hawai'i because the American ships were sold coal but the reality was, they had no choice. This allowed the USA to claim Hawai'i had broken the international law of neutrality and needed to be annexed by the USA for protection from Spain.
The Hawai'ian Kingdom quickly became full of wealthy American businessmen who occupied Hawai'ian land for military and US citizen housing. The USA granted citizenship to those born in Hawai'i or those who live there at least one year in attempt to sway all future political voting. The islands were over ran with American's, making it impossible for natives to enforce their laws. This effort was a direct violation of Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention. By 1950, Hawai'ians made up less than 77,000 of the nearly 500,000 island residents.
The islands were the perfect location for a USA military base to secure the Pan Pacific. There were just too many advantages for the nation to be left alone. The greatest example of one such advantage was seen in 1941.
FDR wanted more military bases in Europe but Congress was financially supported by European businesses that wanted the USA to stay out of WWII conflicts. The only way FDR could get the votes needed to join WWII was to provoke a nation to declare war on the USA.
In September of 1940, the U.S. placed an embargo on Japan by prohibiting exports of steel, scrap iron, and aviation fuel to Japan, claiming it was because of Japan's takeover of northern French Indochina. In July of 1941, the U.S., Britain, and the Netherlands froze Japanese assets. This prevented Japan from buying oil, which would, in time, cripple its army and make its navy and air force completely useless.
FDR's advisors knew the obvious move for retaliation by Japan would be a strike on the Pearl Harbor base so the two main aircraft carriers were sent on training missions but the rest were left in the harbor as collateral damage, which would then get FDR the approval he wanted to join in WWII.
http://rationalrevolution.net/war/fdr_provoked_the_japanese_attack.htm
The only way FDR could get his way was to provoke casualties of war on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese and then retaliate… which is why warnings from communication cryptographers to the Military were silenced and no notice was sent to our families at Pearl Harbor. No large airforce could invade our base with no notice, without help from our own defense.
http://www.independent.org/newsroom/article.asp?id=1930
"Because American cryptographers had also broken the Japanese naval code, the leaders in Washington knew as well that Japan's "measures" would include an attack on Pearl Harbor.[4] Yet they withheld this critical information from the commanders in Hawaii, who might have headed off the attack or prepared themselves to defend against it.
As Stimson confided to his diary after a meeting of the war cabinet on November 25, "The question was how we should maneuver them [the Japanese] into firing the first shot without allowing too much danger to ourselves."[5] After the attack, Stimson confessed that "my first feeling was of relief … that a crisis had come in a way which would unite all our people.[6]"
Isner v. Mahut – USA v. Algeria What a Day!!
Tags: Donovan, Isner, Mahut, Soccer, USA, World Cup
Today was a day I will never forget in sports. Starting the morning with the excitement and strong odds of USA soccer advancing into the World Cup Finals and ending with or actually suspending with the longest Official Grand Slam Tennis Match you will ever witness.
The USA was once again victim of a Ref error, as their first goal of the game was disallowed. As the clock counted down and All Americans nerves were on edge, the 91st minute would show the world a miracle in comparison to the 1984 USA Hockey teams Olympic goal to defeat USSR. As Donovan cleaned up the rebound in front of the goal our prayers were answered and justice was served. I ran around the house swinging a flag and bolted out the door and down the street screaming gooooaaaaaalllllllllll.
Even at the end of the day, several hours later, I still can not grasp the reality of our team being nearly eliminated by the 2 worst ref decisions in the history of the World Cup. I didn't even remember cutting my leg from jumping around but the blood is flowing down my leg showing that I am a die hard fan willing to bleed with my country and team.
Immediately after the USA Soccer game I heard an update that the longest grand slam tennis match record was in jeopardy and the coverage was being switched.
John Isner of the USA was in a nail bitter with Frenchman Mahut. We set the internet ESPN3 on one screen to watch the tennis match while watching the Cup Coverage on the big screen. The match could go forever. We took bathroom and food breaks shouting to each other if the end was near to avoid missing the classic ending.
Thankfully, Wimbeldon does not use lights and it got dark in London by 4pm central USA otherwise we may still be locked up in our homes. We can only fill so many shifts on guard for sporting events! Now that it is all over, I am off to play soccer myself for the evening.
Check out the records from the Tennis match and join in following it again at 7am Thursday 6/24/10 as we should witness a winner.

Yeezy Like Sunday Morning
June 9, 2016 Paul JacobLifestyle
Hi Guys & Girls,
My main man Kanye West (just joking I can't stand the man) was on the Ellen show recently. It was hilarious to watch in an extremely cringe worthy kind of way.
The really sad thing about it was I kind of agree with some of the things he said about changing the world, despite him rocking back and forth like a mad man.
Kids in schools around the globe get bullied for a myriad of reasons and fashion is undoubtedly one of them. Of which I was one, when I was younger.
Kanye says he wants to make quality clothing lines like his affordable for the average child, regardless of poverty levels… then prove it! Taking away the fact that I think Yeezy shoes are butt ugly, they are not affordable for poverty stricken children.
A quick scan of the net reveals a retail price of around USD 350.00 or approximately GBP 250.00. That's not the full picture though, Adidas has created a supply and demand problem, to the point where reselling Yeezy's at 3 times the amount has become big business, I've seen sites selling them for close to USD 1200.00.
I appreciate that Kanye doesn't set retail or demand, but he is a megastar. Are we to believe that if he said he wanted them sold cheaper and have less of a supply issue, that Adidas would refuse? If Adidas refused, what's to say Reebok wouldn't agree? I'm just not buying it.
If Kanye genuinely has approached the head of Pay Less and is trying like he says he is, I will hold my hands up. At this moment like, I don't buy . But the bottom line is, if you want to change the world and make it easy for everyone to obtain designer clothing, prove it and do it. Kanye has the star power to do it. Step up and prove it Mr West.
Carpe Diem Guys

Radio: What would it take to get you to listen to AM radio?
Longtime readers of this column know I'm a bit crazy when it comes to AM radio.
Unlike many – seemingly, most – owners managers or programmers, I believe that an AM station can compete if it pays the right format. And in my opinion, that usually means music – music that can't be found on FM. Do that, and you can attract new listeners, including young people who have not had an AM station that programmed to them since the 1970s.
As I said a few weeks ago, I've been writing this column since 1987, and not once has anyone ever told me that they don't listen to AM because of issues with audio quality. People tell me they don't listen because, with rare exception, the programming just isn't appealing.
But don't take my word for it. Here are some of the responses you sent to me in answer to the question: Would you listen to an AM station if it played something you wanted to hear?
"I agree with you; the AM band should have better formats. Since we already have an oldies format, I think it would be great if we had a format on the band that would play music from the Classic Rock Era (1964-1990). We really need to have more music formats on the AM radio band." – Russell Cinque, Jr.
"I would listen to AM if they played something I liked. Maybe give exposure to some artists that aren't played anywhere else, especially if they play real instruments. There are lots of good songs you can't hear on the radio" – Antonio A.
There you have it. Programming will bring people of all ages back to AM radio, especially in an era when the FMs are all too scared to take chances. AM stations – like FM stations in the 1960s – have nothing to lose … and everything to gain.
Once programming is in place, we can tackle the technical issues and find that in spite of its reputation, AM can provide good, perhaps excellent, audio quality. That topic will be covered in a future column.

I have tried with celery-flower, events, celerycam, etc. for monitoring the the worker/tasks status and it worked well.
My Problem is:-
I want to send mail notification if worker goes down for some reason.
I thought of creating cron job and running every 5 mins and check the status of worker(not sure this the correct way)
Is there any other extensions or other way to do this without cron??

News, views and analysis of government in Australia
South Australia embraces Open Data
By Paul Hemsley
The South Australian government has joined the ranks of the federal government and other state governments after Premier Jay Weatherill mandated a new requirement for all government agencies to house their public data in a central portal to ensure that it is accessible to the community at large.
Following in step with other Australian governments that have joined the Open Data movement, South Australia will become the latest government to create an "open data" access point to enable the public to search for, slice and ice relevant information or statistics.
When the federal government launched its own Open Data portal in March 2011, it was followed by the Victorian government in August 2012, the Queensland government in December 2012 and a revamp of the NSW government's Open Data website in 2013 that had been providing some data sets online since 2009.
The South Australian government's move to create its Open Data platform leaves Western Australia and Tasmania as the only states still to join the what is essentially a non-partisan movement.
The South Australian government's move is tied in with the state's Office of the Chief Information Officer leading an Open Data Action Plan to guide agencies in classifying, licencing and releasing their data.
The government claims that the Open Data Action Plan will ensure that these agencies "maintain the highest standards or privacy, security and integrity".
The launch of an Open Data website has also followed a long term campaign by the state government to make Open Data an important resource for local businesses and community groups to use and by allowing them access to government data through an Open Data competition called "Unleashed".
More than 100 digital entrepreneurs used government data through the Unleashed competition to create mobile applications and "visualisation tools" and websites, which resulted with local company All my I.T. winning the Premier's Award for its web-based application concept called Social Active.
The application enables the people to meet up with each other for sports and recreation and allows users and organisations to host an activity and use social media to invite other to join them. The company also won the national prize for "Best Benefit to the SA Community".
The resulting success of the Unleashed competition has led the government to making it an annual event.
Mr Weatherill said opening up government data to industry, community groups, digital entrepreneurs and start-up companies will create an "enormous benefit" to the state through the development of smartphone and web-based applications.
It will enable informed investment decision making, Mr Weatherill said.
"As the custodian of a significant amount of data, the state government can help to fuel a boom in the local digital marketplace but it's equally important that industry and community groups release their data too," Mr Weatherill said.
Mr Weatherill wasn't alone in his remarks about the benefits of open data for private enterprise as Australian Information Industry Association (AIIA) chair and Telstra state director Michael Luchich said the state government's move presented an "outstanding opportunity" for South Australian ICT firms to mine the data, build apps and generate new revenue streams.
"It also presents an opportunity for increased collaboration between government agencies, lower cost government service delivery and improved public sector productivity," Mr Luchich said.

Electromechanical couplingin materials is a key property that provides functionality to a variety of applications,including sensors, actuators, IR detectors, energy harvesting and biology. Most materials exhibit electromechanical coupling in nanometer-sized domains. Therefore, to understand the relationships between structure and function of these materials, characterization at nanoscale is required. This electromechanical coupling property can be directly measured in a non-destructive manner using piezoelectric force microscopy (PFM), a mode that comes standard in all Park atomic force microscopes (AFMs). Here in this application note, we developed a novel technique termed as PinPoint™ PFM and demonstrated the application of PinPoint PFM in the characterization of annealed phenanthrenethin film on top of an ITO surface. The phenanthrenematerial has been a challenging sample to get quality topographical and piezoelectric response data from using conventional SPM methods. The main difficulty is due to the rod-shaped nanostructures on the sample surface being very susceptible to displacement by a scanning probe's tip. The invention of Park's latest PinPoint PFM technique gives researchers both a friction-less imaging technology that overcomes this difficulty and the means to achieve publication-ready image quality in much less time than previously possible with older methods. Here we demonstrated, not only can image well-resolved individual rod-shaped phenanthrene structures, but also differences in electrical polarization expressed as differences in PFM contrast (brighter areas showing a positive polarization and darker areas a negative polarization) without image distortions.
Fig. 1.A schematic representation of (a-b) vertical and (c-d) lateral PFM. The AFM laser shows vertical deflections which correspond with (a) downward or (b) upward out-of-plane electrical polarization. In lateral PFM, the cantilever will exhibit torsion in response to (c-d) lateral in-plane polarization directions. Black arrows indicate the direction of polarization vector in each case assuming that the relationship between polarization and crystal orientation is conserved.
In this application note, piezoelectric force microscopy is performed utilizing the newly-developed PinPoint™ mode by Park Systems as opposed to the conventional contact mode. Performance comparison of PinPoint™ PFM and conventional PFM was carried out on annealed phenanthrene film, and improved resolution was observed in both topography and piezoelectric response signal with PinPoint™ PFM. In PinPoint™ PFM mode, the AFM probe monitors its feedback signal, approaches towardsthe sample surface until a predefined force threshold point is reached, measures the Z scanner's height, then the AFM probe is rapidly retracted away from the surface to a user-defined height. The XY scanner stops during the piezoelectric response acquisition, and the probe-substrate contact time is controlled to allowsufficient time for quality data acquisition (Figure 2). PinPoint PFM allows higher spatial resolution with optimized piezoelectric response measurement over different sample surface.PinPoint PFM was designed to replace the conventional contact PFM and is an enhanced design that eliminates the problems of the tip wearing out during contact mode topography and diminished contact time. The PinPoint™ PFM technology has proven to solve all of the shortcomings of conventional PFM including quick tip wear, degradation of resolution, low signal to noise ratio, and poor reproducibility of data.
Fig. 2.A schematic representation of PinPoint mode operation. The probe approaches towards the sample surface until a pre-defined force threshold is reached, then the Z scanner height is recorded. The XY scanner stops and the piezoelectric response is measured. Then the probe retracts away from the surface and move to the next pixel. The process repeats to collect the topography map and the piezoelectric response map.
A Park NX10 AFM was used to image the annealed phenanthrene surface, and the topography signal and PFM quad signal were acquired in both conventional PFM imaging and PinPoint™ PFM imaging. In conventional PFM imaging, a NSC36-C (nominal spring constant k = 0.6 N/m and resonance frequency f = 65 kHz) coated with Cr and Au on both the front and back side was used in conventional PFM imaging. The nominal radius of the tip curvature is ~25 nm. Scan size was 20 μm × 20 μm. Scan rate was 0.2 Hz. The AFM tip was biased with AC potential with an amplitude of 4.5 V and a frequency of 17 kHz. No external bias was applied to the sample during imaging. The force set point used in the experiment was 6.84 nN. In PinPoint™ PFM imaging, a conductive NANOSENSORS™ PointProbe® Plus-Electrostatic Force Microscopy (PPP-EFM) cantilever (nominal spring constant k = 2.8 N/m and resonance frequency f = 25 kHz) coated with Ptlr5 on both the front and back sides was used in PinPoint™ PFM imaging. The nominal radius of the tip curvature is ~25 nm. Scan size was 20 μm × 20 μm. Same as the conventional PFM experiment, a AC potential with an amplitude of 4.5 V and a frequency of 17 kHz was applied to the tip, and no DC potential was applied to the sample. The force set point used in the experiment was 196.8 nN. The retract height was 0.3 μm. The retract/approach speed was 20 μm/s. The contact time between the probe and the sample surface was controlled at 1 ms.
In Figure 3, the topography and the piezoelectric response maps of the annealed phenanthrene thin film on ITO surface imaged with both conventional PFM and PinPoint™ PFM are shown. The images obtained via conventional PFM are shown in Figure 3a (topography) and Figure 3b (piezoelectric response), and the images collected by PinPoint PFM are shown in Figure 3c (topography) and Figure 3d (piezoelectric response). From the topography images (Figure 3a and 3c), the annealed phenanthrene polymer was resolved under both imaging modes and observed to be rod-shaped features with pointy ends. The height of polymer rods was measured to be ranging from 50 to 400 nm, while the width of the polymer rods was measured to be between several hundred of nm to a couple of μm. It is noteworthy that the quality of the topography image obtained via PinPoint PFM is significantly improved compared to that taken with conventional PFM mode. In Figure 3c, under PinPoint PFM imaging conditions, the annealed phenanthrene polymer were well-distinguished from the ITO substrate. However, in Figure 3a, under conventional PFM imaging conditions, image artifacts can be seen throughout the entire scan area, indicating that the probe was scratching on the surface repeatedly. Of note, for conventional PFM measurement, our initial attempt was to use PPP-EFM (f = 2.8 N/m) as the probe, which is the same as the one used in the PinPoint PFM measurements. However, the probe was constantly scratching on the surface and the image quality was very poor. A cantilever with smaller force constant, NSC36-C (f = 0.6 N/m) was used instead, in hope to alleviate the scraping on the surface. Albeit the NSC36-C has a smaller force constant compared to that of PPP-EFM, the probe was still dragging on the surface and resulted in imaging artifacts as seen in Figure 3a. In PinPoint PFM, on the other hand, since the probe was retracted away from the surface to a safe height at every pixel prior to approach towards the surface, the scratching between the probe and the underlying substrate was effectively eliminated, leading to significantly improved imaging quality.
Figure. 3.a) Topography image taken with conventional PFM mode; b) PFM quad image taken with conventional PFM mode; c) Topography image taken with PinPoint PFM mode; d) PFM quad image taken with PinPoint PFM mode. Scan size: 20 μm × 20 μm.
Similar results were observed in the piezoelectric response images (Figure 3b and Figure 3d).By comparing the results of the two techniques, one can easily determine that PinPoint PFM has better performance compared to conventional PFM in the detection of piezoelectric response as the image obtained under PinPoint PFM was much better compared to that taken with conventional PFM mode.
Figure. 4. Hysteresis curves for the amplitude (a) and phase (b) signal taken with the phenanthrene polymer film.
Figure 4a and 4b are hysteresis curves for the PFM amplitude and PFM phase signals of the phenanthrene film. These hysteresis curves were obtained by measuring the piezoelectric response at a specific location of the sample while applying the sample bias from -1.5 V to +1.5 V. The hysteresis curves provide localized information with respect to the switching properties of piezoelectric material. In Figure 4a, a characteristic "butterfly" shape that is similar to the ideal strain versus bias curve was observed in the amplitude signal. In addition, the coercive voltage, which is a measure of ability to withstand an external electric field without depolarization, is ~0.3 V. In Figure 4b, the phase hysteresis loop is shown, which is the typical response of a ferroelectric material.
Here in this application note, imaging performance of PinPoint PFM mode and conventional PFM mode was compared on phenanthrene film annealed on ITO surface. The PinPoint PFM mode introduced by Park Systems has proven to offer significantly-improved quality in both topography and piezoelectric response measurement. The advanced PinPoint mechanism eliminates the frictional force between the probe and the substrate, enabling concurrent high-resolution topography and piezoelectric response mapping of the surface. In addition, the response in strain (PFM amplitude) and polarization (phase) as a function of applied voltage was examined to obtain insights regarding material characteristics such as coercive voltage and hysteresis. Taken in total, PinPoint PFM mode is the ideal approach to characterize and quantify localized piezoelectric response at nanoscale, with maximized tip life and sample originality as a result of minimal frictional force between tip and sample.

That we abide so far from hell?
Some more of my favorite quotes from Henri Nouwen. Let me know which ones resonate with you.
The real "work" of prayer is to become silent and listen to the voice that says good things about me. To gently push aside and silence the many voices that question my goodness and to trust that I will hear the voice of blessing-- that demands real effort.
Emit gratitude as though it was done.
We fail to see the place of suffering in the broader scheme of things. We fail to see that suffering is an inevitable dimension of life. Because we have lost perspective, we fail to see that unless one is willing to accept suffering properly, he or she is really refusing to continue in the quest for maturity. To refuse suffering is to refuse personal growth.
Aren't you, like me, hoping that some person, thing, or event will come along to give you that final feeling of inner well-being you desire? Don't you often hope: 'May this book, idea, course, trip, job, country or relationship fulfill my deepest desire.' But as long as you are waiting for that mysterious moment you will go on running helter-skelter, always anxious and restless, always lustful and angry, never fully satisfied. You know that this is the compulsiveness that keeps us going and busy, but at the same time makes us wonder whether we are getting anywhere in the long run. This is the way to spiritual exhaustion and burn-out. This is the way to spiritual death.
Praying demands that you take to the road again and again, leaving your house and looking forward to a new land for yourself and your [fellow human]. This is why praying demands poverty, that is, the readiness to live a life in which you have nothing to lose so that you always begin afresh.
Somehwere we know that without silence words lose their meaning, that without listening speaking no longer heals, that without distance closeness cannot cure.
God, who is the Creator of the Universe, comes to us in smallness, weakness, and hiddenness.
Theological formation is the gradual and often painful discovery of God's incomprehensibility. You can be competent in many things, but you cannot be competent in God.
As long as we continue to live as if we are what we do, what we have, and what other people think about us, we will remain filled with judgments, opinions, evaluations, and condemnations. We will remain addicted to putting people and things in their "right" place.
It is tragic to see how the religious sentiment of the West has become so individualized that concepts such as "a contrite heart," have come to refer only to the personal experiences of guilt and willingness to do penance for it. The awareness of our impurity in thoughts, words and deeds can indeed put us in a remorseful mood and create in us the hope for a forgiving gesture. But if the catastrophical events of our days, the wars, mass murders, unbridled violence, crowded prisons, torture chambers, the hunger and the illness of millions of people and he unnamable misery of a major part of the human race is safely kept outside the solitude of our hearts, our contrition remains no more than a pious emotion.
True hospitality is receiving the stranger on his terms, and asserts that it can be offered only by those who have found the center of their lives in their own hearts.
Waiting is a dry desert between where we are and where we want to be.
For most of my life I have struggled to find God, to know God, to love God. I have tried hard to follow the guidelines of the spiritual life—pray always, work for others, read the Scriptures—and to avoid the many temptations to dissipate myself. I have failed many times but always tried again, even when I was close to despair. Now I wonder whether I have sufficiently realized that during all this time God has been trying to find me, to know me, and to love me. The question is not "How am I to find God?" but "How am I to let myself be found by him?" The question is not "How am I to know God?" but "How am I to let myself be known by God?" And, finally, the question is not "How am I to love God?" but "How am I to let myself be loved by God?" God is looking into the distance for me, trying to find me, and longing to bring me home.

Honored to be part of documentary, "Gold Record: Fifty Years of Hockey in Nashville"
I was honored to be interviewed for the terrific one hour documentary on the history of pro hockey in Nashville entitled, Gold Record: Fifty Years of Hockey History in Music City. The portions where I reminisce include the rowdy times at Nashville Knights games in the mid 90s, as well as reflections on the rabid fan base (including the crazed inmates of infamous Cellblock 303) at Predators' games since 1998.
Leading into Tuesday night's Nashville Predators game vs. the Vancouver Canucks, the Preds flagship TV station, FOX Sports Tennessee, will debut the one-hour documentary "Nashville Predators Present: Gold Record – 50 Years of Hockey History in Music City," at 6 PM Central Time.
This special takes a look back at the history of hockey in Nashville, beginning with the Dixie Flyers in 1962 all the way through to the present day Nashville Predators. The show features interviews with Dixie Flyers captain Ken "Red" Murphy, South Stars owner Larry Schmittou, Knights radio broadcaster Steve Carroll, current Predators Chairman Tom Cigarran and country legend and hockey aficionado Barbara Mandrell, among others. Fans will travel back in time to Municipal Auditorium, the original home of hockey in Nashville, by way of vintage footage and rare photos. This all encompassing look at hockey in Music City will air on Fox Sports Tennessee several times over the next 6-8 weeks.
Tuesday, February 7--6 PM leading into Predators vs. Vancouver Canucks game.
Tuesday, February 7--10 PM following Predators post game show after Predators vs. Vancouver Canucks game.
Thursday, February 9--10 PM (following "Predators Snapshot" after Predators vs. Ottawa Senators game.
Tuesday, February 14--10 PM following post game show after Predators vs. Chicago Black Hawks game.
Sunday, February 19--9 PM following post game show after Predators vs. Dallas Stars game.
More airings to be announced for March and April.
I am grateful to director/producer Scott Osborne for seeking me out and other fellow Section 303 rowdies like Kurt Andress, Laurie Dishman, and Brian Binkley for our participation. I waxed nostalgic for over an hour, and I know that many others gave long testimonies to the long-sufferings and joys of being hockey fans here in Tennessee that were edited for running-time purposes.
Additionally, there is plenty more archival footage to be had of the various franchises that have graced the Municipal Auditorium ice sheet in the 60s, 80s, and 90s, as well as of the Preds at Bridgestone for the past 13 seasons….so, who knows? Maybe there will be a Volume Two and Three!
Should you get to watch it, or have seen it already (every Predators season ticket holder was sent a copy as a Christmas gift), let me know what you think. I'm sure those of you who are hockey fans will enjoy this fun skate down memory lane.

Q: How to get environment information in Mule I need to put some production specific behavior in mule-config.xml. Is there a way to get environment info in mule?

A: You can access all system properties via MEL. But I would rather suggest you modularize your configuration in several files (say: common-config.xml, test-config.xml, prod-config.xml) and load the right files at Mule startup based on the environment.

A: And also you can create properties file for each environment and access it inside mule config file.

A: You can create xml file with all the configurations and import/load the file into mule project

A: In your Mule configuration file (src/main/app/app-config-file.xml), you can add the following line:
<context:property-placeholder location="${environment.name}.properties" />

${environment.name} must be a system environment variable. You need to make sure the system where you are deploying your app contains that variable. I think you can also specify it in the Maven build, if you are using Maven (clean install -Denvironment.name=test). You can try.
To test locally, right click on your project, select run as, select run configurations, click on Environment tab, add your variable "environment.name" and the value "local" (without quotation marks) and make sure your local.properties file exists in a location added to the build path. It can be src/main/app for example or in the resources folder.

A: MEL has some context objects like server, mule ,application using these you can get the envinformation from #[server.env] for more info refer
https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-user-guide/v/3.6/mule-expression-language-basic-syntax

A: You can use different mule properties file like Mule-dev.properties , mule-test.properties.
In global elements add a property placeholder :

In mule-app.properties define env= test or dev depending on the env value which you want to use.
Clean the project and deploy. Sometimes it is not able to read the env specific properties. Cleaning the project solves this issue.

A: You can add a properties file in you project and refer it from property place holder. it is better to add environment value in mule-app.properties file ehich is in /src/main/app

A: you can have one variable like mule.env in this mule-app.properties and send value to this Property as DEV,QA,UAT,PROD from cloudhub properties and create different properties file in mule/src/app main  resources then use Properties placeholder to configure this  property file and send the value of mule-env dynamically from cloudhub

A: Typically the way this is done is to delcare a property bean in which you set the environment specific value like PROD,QA,DEV or local. This environment specific value is set in mule-app.properties like mule.env=local, This needs to be set to the environment we are trying to deploy it and the API picks up the right properties file.

Q: MVC 3 Index Page with multiple objects I have an HomeController and in Index action i want work with multiple objects, for example i'll show News, Pictures, Portfolio in HomePage. So how can i pass multiple Objects to View.
public ActionResult Index()
{
            var news = newsRepository.GetAll();
            return View(news);
}

Above, i can pass only News object to view. But as you know in HomePage of a website there will be more than only one object.
On the view when i only work with News, i can pass "IEnumerable" from a controller. But to declare more than one object in the view, what should i do? Sorry i'm a beginner in MVC3. In WebForms it was easy with user controls or .NET controls but in MVC it looks complicated.
Thanks

A: What I do to solve this is use a view model with properties that contain the objects you want to pass in to the view.
I create a ViewModel folder for these classes.
public class IndexViewModel
{
    public PortfolioViewModel Portfolio {get; set;}
    public IEnumerable<PhotosViewModel> Photos {get; set;}
    public IEnumerable<NewsViewModel> News {get; set;}
    //...///
}

In your controller.
public ActionResult Index()
{
    var model = new IndexViewModel();
    model.news = newsRepository.GetAll();
    return View(model);
}

A: Create a model with all the subclasses- models, and send it to the view.
public class A
{
    public int Code {get; set;}
    public string Name {get; set;}
}

public class B
{
    public int First {get; set;}
    public int Second {get; set;}
}

public class ViewModel
{
    public A TheA {get; set;}
    public B TheB {get; set;}
}

public ActionResult Index()
{
        var model = new ViewModel();
        return View(model);
}

A: You can effectively create something akin to a user control by using a ChildAction.
Your views / models / controllers for news, pictures, portfolio, would remain separate.
You can then combine them in the home page like so:
@Html.Action("Index", "News")
@Html.Action("Index", "Pictures")
@Html.Action("Index", "Portfolio")

A: You can use ViewData to store multiple objects. But a better option would be to create a class that stores all those other objects that need to be passed to the view.
