American Foreign Policy: what it was, what it is, what it should be.
Obamunists and Marxocrats turned American foreign policy into an absolute travesty.
Vic Biorseth, OWM; Thursday, July 31, 2014
Who said the Cold War was over? Who said Communism was dead? Who said Marxism was no longer any threat to anyone? The Berlin Wall coming down was a temporary, if you will, ideological victory. The collapse of the Soviet Union was a temporary, if you will, economic victory.
But the evil ideologies behind all that didn't go anywhere. Marx's ideologies, and those they spawned - Marxism, Communism, Socialism, Fascism, Naziism, Controlled Economyism, Big Governmentism, Democrat Partyism - still exist, are as strong or may be stronger than ever, and still pose a threat to human liberty, everywhere on earth. They operate under new names, including the commandeered name of Liberalism. Leftism; Progressivism; Crony-Capitalism; etc. Only in lands where they rule (Russia; China; Cuba; North Korea; Vietnam; etc.) do they call themselves by their real names. Everywhere else, they pretend to be something else.
Russia is still Communist. The Russian Orthodox Church still operates as a branch of the Russian government, and a subsidiary branch of the Communist Party. In America, the Marxocrat Party is almost solidly Communist in its guiding principles. As is American Academia and American Journalism. They maliciously rewrite history, they indoctrinate and they propagandize. It's their job. And the USCCB, for the most part, is right in there with them. They all operate as if they were all covert members of the International Communist Party. Perhaps they are.
Marxism, in all it's many forms, still threatens all of Western Civilization. The only difference is that today, at least in America, the Marxist threat is more dangerous from within than from without.
Who said Islam is a religion of peace? What land did it ever take over by peaceful means? What people did it ever convert by peaceful means? Why does the entire history of the "religion" of Islam show an absolutely solid, unwavering history of direct military conquest, and of bestial cruelty to whomever they conquered?
That's peace?
Islam virtually invented the "Unjust Servitude" form of slavery described in the Slavery page. They still practice it today. Our first war, as a new nation, was fought against Islamic slave traders off the Barbary Coast. As pirates, they took people, including Americans, and either kept them as slaves or sold them back to their native countries for bounty. It's how they made their money, since they didn't really produce anything, unless it was produced by their slaves.
Islam lives by war, and cannot long endure in the absence of war. The only Islamic history that involved peace and anything even approaching common civility towards others was under secular governments that did not enforce Islamic law over the nation, modeled after the secular government of Ataturk. The minute Islamic government returns to power, war resumes. The Koran demands it.
Believe me, Islamic lands not under strict Islamic law are quaking in their boots over the possibility of the Caliphate spreading into their territory. Even Saudi Arabia, which most of us infidels think of as being about as Islamic as it can get, does not want to go totally Islamic. It means war. They don't want war. But Islam is war.
We all (or mostly) think of what's going on in Iran and in the new ISIS movement in Syria and Iraq as "Islamist" or "Radical Islam" or the "Terrorist" movement. But it's none of those things; it is Islam, in accordance with what Mohammed said, as recorded in the Koran. There is only one Islam. It has been and is being "suppressed" under secular governments such as those in Quatar, Kuwait, Jordan, etc., since Ataturk.
The USA as the World's Cop. I submit that the whole world was better off during the brief period of history that the USA was the sole so-called super-power nation. The reason is that we are the good guys. We know right from wrong, and behave accordingly. Our national morality is based on our Moral Touchstone, rather than empire or control of others.
Who else would keep the sea lanes open and safe from piracy? Who else could be trusted to do such a thing?
The Marxists? Marxists would be more likely to join in on open piracy than suppress it, unless it was operating against them personally. Marxists have their own "touchstone" moral rules, and they are:
The ends justify the means.
You can't make an omelet without breaking eggs.
Shut up and get on the cattle car.
There's nothing in there against stealing or robbing.
The Moslems? The Moslems are the pirates. They might be induced to stop other pirates, to cut down on business competition; but they are never going to give up their piracy any more than they are ever going to giver up their slaves. The news today showed that Europeans have been secretly paying Al Queda hundreds of millions of dollars as bounty for "hostages" just snatched off the seas or off of the streets of wherever they were. Islam is still doing today what it did way back before Jefferson prosecuted the Barbary War.
During the Cold War we were the world's only real check on the expansionist Marxism of the Soviet Union and China. They sought empire and territory; we sought to have them leave people alone. We left liberty in our wake; they left dictatorship in theirs. And yet we were the ones labeled as Imperialists by all of our Marxist politicians, mal-educators, indoctrinators and propagandists.
What Obamunism has done to our allies, and especially to Poland, Ukraine and Israel can only be described as treachery and betrayal. Pulling out offensive and even defensive missiles, with promises of American defense, followed by standing back and watching Russia take the Crimea and initiate covert operations inside Ukraine is, to me, worse than criminal. Toppling secular governments and unleashing Islamic Jihad all over the Middle East and North Africa, and then diplomatically taking the part of Hamas against Israel is the lowest order of anti-Semitic evil treachery.
What we should be doing is putting the missiles right back where they were, and then defending them. And, possibly, inserting covert forces into Ukraine to counter the Russian effort and help the government we betrayed to reestablish itself. Maybe in Crimea too.
As far as unleashed Islam is concerned, we should be following Bush's dictum "whoever is not with us is against us." Since Jihad always has America in its sights, we should be militarily attacking Jihadists wherever they are in the world. That means the government of Iran, and it means ISIS, and it means Al Queda, Hamas, the Moslem Brotherhood and all of these fruit-loop groups.
If they go secular and abandon Jihad, leave them alone. If they adopt Jihad, attack them and hound them to the ends of the earth. Regardless of what name they might go by today.
Obamunism and Marxocratism actually take the part of Hamas and scold Israel for not negotiating with Hamas. Hamas' own charter openly refuses to negotiate with Israel. It's right there in black and white. It even tells Moslem women to get out there and fight when the opportunity presents itself, even when they don't have the permission of their husbands, and slaves likewise, even when they don't have the permission of their owners. They are absolutely and irresolutely committed to the annihilation of Israel and the killing of the Jews. And they say so, in writing. "Cease fire" means, to them, "reload".
The Obamunists and the Marxocrats know that. They cannot possibly not know that. They are clearly working for the destruction of Israel. There can be no other possibility. Well, I suppose today it may be possible that no one in the State Department can read.
We should be mending fences and sharing intelligence with Israel against our common enemy. Israel is Islam's Little Satan and America is Islam's Great Satan. We should be doing the same thing in Europe, particularly in the Ukraine.
May God save Israel.
May God save the Ukraine.
May God save the USA.

I recently got into an argument with a Ron/Rand Paul supporter on Facebook over foreign policy. This guy is an isolationist, but won't admit it. He claimed that every American foreign policy initiative over the last twenty years has been a "failure" (he has a point with Clinton and Obama; otherwise, I think he's all wet), and he called the Iraq Campaign, in so many words, "the biggest foreign policy blunder in American history". This guy I'm arguing with is actually more than an isolationist; he hates both Presidents Bush--President Bush the Younger in particular. In any case, he, like all Ron/Rand Paul supporters, doesn't seem to understand or care that a world without American influence--including a strong military presence--is a much less free world, and a much more dangerous one. If, by some bizarre and truly cruel twist of fate, Rand Paul were to succeed in co-opting the Republican Party for the libertarians and get himself elected President in 2016, I would fear for this nation every bit as much as I would if Hillary Clinton or any other Democrat got elected. This man is not a conservative, but he's bamboozling a lot of conservatives into thinking that he is.

Jim:
I think we are in agreement. Perhaps I can give you some ammunition to carry on the argument.
Ron Paul has always been a puzzlement to me. I could never reconcile in my mind how he could exhibit such a learned expertise on economics, and yet be such an absolute blithering idiot on geopolitical realities. One possible reconciliation would involve evil, deceptively concealed. I have the same suspicion of Rand Paul, who seems to be using smoke and mirrors to conceal his real intention to eventually, some day, some way, grant amnesty to the criminal aliens.
Ron seems to think that we somehow asked for the 9/11 sneak attack, and that if we just left the Moslems alone they would leave us alone. Here's Mohammed's open declaration of war against all non-Moslems, with Jews and Christians singled out for special cruelties:
So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
– Koran Sura 9:5.
And fight with them until there is no persecution, and religion should be only for Allah, but if they desist, then there should be no hostility except against the oppressors. – Koran Sura 2:193.
And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do.
- Koran Sura 8:39.
Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.
– Koran Sura 9:29.
Moslems tell Ron that they will not fight anyone who is not fighting or persecuting them. It says so right in the verses above, right? But what they leave out, and what Ron Paul does not know, or does not admit that he knows, is that in these verses, "fighting" and "persecuting" means nothing more than resisting conversion or subjugation. If you refuse to convert, and you refuse to submit entirely to Islamic law and pay the dhimi tax, and you refuse to commit suicide, then the next Jihadist you meet is required to kill you. Resisting the expansion of Ummah (the Caliphate) in any way is "fighting" and "persecuting". (It's touted to be a language thing.)
Mohammed's declaration of war (the Koran) was written over 1,400 years ago, and nothing has changed. Osama Bin Laden's personal declaration of war from 1966, embellished in 1998, was in complete accord with the Koran. He called all Moslems to kill Americans wherever in the world they might be found, including in America, using any deceptive means necessary, and to steal our money and property, and to not stop killing us until America is defeated.
Here are few of his words from the 1998 fatwah:
Praise be to God, who revealed the Book, controls the clouds, defeats factionalism, and says in His Book: "But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the pagans wherever ye find them, seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war)"; and peace be upon our Prophet, Muhammad Bin-'Abdallah, who said: I have been sent with the sword between my hands to ensure that no one but God is worshipped, God who put my livelihood under the shadow of my spear and who inflicts humiliation and scorn on those who disobey my orders.
– Osama Bin Laden, from 1998 Fatwa declaring holy war on the West and Israel.
He was not a radical. He was a Moslem. That is what the Koran calls Moslems to do. There is nothing Osama Bin Ladin said that is not in full accord with the Koran and with the "religion" of Islam.
And Ron Paul says we asked for it. We had it coming. Right.
But there is something worse, if you can imagine that, about Ron and Rand, and it is their Libertarianism. That form of Libertarianism strikes at our national foundational morality. If we become an immoral people - if we are no longer the good guys - then we no longer deserve to continue existing as a nation.
See Definition of Libertarian, and Argument Opposing Libertarianism. The fatal political error of leaving morality, or so-called social issues, out of the political debate is that it cedes the moral ground to the opponents of Judeo-Chrisitan morality, and begins to negatively modify our national ethos; the very nature of our national being.
Saying that moral issues are losing political issues is a lie. High morality is always easier to argue and win than immorality. Ron and Rand just don't want to do it; or, they are poseurs, and not really men of high moral standard.
Here's the vital thing that Libertarians of good conscience miss:
None of the moral issues are addressable in federal law.
Either way.
Legislating a moral law (or executive action, or adjudicated legal precedent) is extra-constitutitonal and out of constitutional scope for the federal government to even address. Not one moral issue is listed in Article 1 Section 8, or anywhere else in the federal Constitution. Thus, they are out of scope for the federal government.
Constitutionalists do not seek to impose moral law on anyone. It is quite the opposite. Immoral men seek to impose immoral law on the whole nation, at the federal level. By any means, whether through legislation, executive action, bureaucratic regulation or through the courts.
So when Libertarians throw up their hands and refuse to take a moral position, the immoral Party wins. Every time.
To me, the Libertarian amorality equals immorality. A man is either moral, or he is not. To deny any set of social moral norms all across the whole society is to deny the existence of objective reality.
These are all state and local issues of community standards. They are not properly addressable in federal law/regulation/executive order/adjudicated legal precedent. If the Paul family wants to stay stoned, they can move to Colorado and leave the rest of us alone. If they want to indulge in prostitution, they can vacation in Nevada where it's legal. If they enjoy public celebration of loud, open public displays of homosexuality, they can visit San Francisco, or New York City, or Orlando Florida. Or, they can take the kids to Disney World on Sodomy Day. (Wednesdays, I think.)
But no; they actually secretly support immorality, while pretending to be moral. They stand back and cede the moral high ground to America's vast and growing immoral and degenerate intelligentsia.
And American moral norms slide ever farther down the ever steepening slope, toward Sodom and Gomorrah.
I don't know how you feel about it Jim, but for me, the moral issue is greater than the failure to recognize a deadly foreign enemy who already has you in his sights. The loss of a life is temporary; the loss of a soul is permanent.
I'm in total agreement with you, Vic. Verse by verse, line by line. I've been telling anyone and everyone who will listen that the Pauls are both as phony as four-dollar bills. And while I usually zero in on their loopy notions on both foreign policy and immigration (they're both for open borders and amnesty), I also touch on their weakness with regard to moral issues, especially marriage and narcotics. And Rand had the nerve to go on Fox News Channel and claim that Rick Santorum is "pro-choice". I don't know about you, Vic, but I don't think I've ever heard a statement that could be further from the truth than that; not even from liars like Clinton and Obama.
Date: Sat Aug 02 2014
I have heard Ron Paul say some things regarding economics that I know to be true. But, re the Clintons and the Obamas - the truth is not in them. You would have to hunt to find whatever few things they ever said that might be true.
If Rand Paul said that Rick Santorum is pro-choice then Rand Paul is a liar.

Returning America to the revolutionary High Ideals of the Founding Fathers, and to the formalized Ideology of Liberty that the Framers set down in the Constitution as the Supreme Law of the Land.
Almost all the rest of this site talks about our problems; these pages talk about how to fix them. Marxist anti-Americanism has advanced so far in even our politics and our own government that we now have to consider super-radical changes just to save the Constitution itself.
The Required Radical American Re-Revolution. Or, Re-Constitution. It took 100+ years to radicalize Constitutional America. It will take a radical re-revolution to bring it back to sanity.
Fixing it all, or, losing it all: the only options left for America. Fixing it all is our only option. If we don't fix it all, we will surely lose it all.
Going whole-Hog on American Constitutional Restoration. It's all or nothing, now. If we don't go whole-hog on Constitutional Restoration, the USA is history.
Constitutional America requires American re evangelization. We cannot revive Constitutionalism without an American re evangelization.
Deep Reconciliation means repentance, confession, absolution and conversion. A Serious, Deep Reconciliation is required of this whole nation, one man at a time.
At this moment in time, most Constitutionalists would love to kill the IRS. How do you Kill the IRS? Fast-track and pass the Fair Tax. Very simple; nothing to it.
Our argument supporting the Fair Tax as a sensible and practical Tax Revolution. Fair Tax presents the possibility of a real, popular, voter-supported, tax payer supported, grass-roots supported Revolution in America, and a radical change for the better.
Fasttrack Fairtax: Stop income tax until repeal of Amendment XVI. Fasttrack Fairtax: Legislate to not collect income tax and pass FairTax.

Argument for Repeal of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. The Federal Reserve Act did not prevent the Great Depression, so why does The FED still exist?
Argument to Repeal Amendment XVII and the Politicizing of the Senate. We need to repeal Amendment XVII and restore our Senate to its original status.

We need to shut down the dept of education. Shut down the dept of education and cut $77B from the budget.

Compromise with Evil begins the ultimate death spiral. Compromise on any Vital Principle leads to death, for individual souls and for cultures.
Tolerating intolerance of America is what Americans are being trained to do. In tolerating intolerance of themselves some Americans think they are proving something or other.

The Chastity Vs Sophistication division: Wisdom Vs Elitist Celebritwittery. 'Naïve' Chastity Vs Sophistication of the Elite. Lechery, promiscuity, perversion are Sophisticated; chastity equates to naiveté. See?

Constitutionalism: Sovereign Citizenship and Limited Representative Government. The philosophy that government derives authority from citizens and is permanently limited is called Constitutionalism.
A minority tail furiously wags a majority dog unto death. In bending over backwards to mollify and molly-codle minorities, the majority forgets it is the majority.
The Christ-centered life, the godless life, and the inevitable ungodly life. When any Godly nation moves into godlessness, the inevitable end is an ungodly nation.
American survival requires bold, take it to the enemy leadership. What we need is radical, revolutionary take it to the enemy leadership just for national survival itself.
Undoing the damage and righting the wrongs, wherever possible. Undoing the damage must follow national survival (assuming national survival.)
American Foreign Policy: what it was, what it is, what it should be. Obamunists and Marxocrats turned American foreign policy into an absolute travesty.
Fix the VA by switching all Government Coverage to VA Coverage. Restricting Congress, the Presidency and the Court to Existing Military Coverage should fix the VA pretty quick.
Fix Military Pay by tieing it to Congressional Pay and Raises. Tying Presidential, Congressional, Judicial and Military to One Pay Scale should Fix Military Pay.
Regarding off-duty military concealed-carry of firearms. With Moslem potential Jihadists in our own military ranks, all American military should be armed at all times.
Sheriffs and Veterans and Citizens; Oh My! County Sheriffs and Veterans should together form volunteer Minute-Man like County Militia units of the free citizenry.
Patience. Be not afraid. A Glorious Sunrise is coming. The Son rose on a Sunday, following a Friday Crucifixion. Our Sunrise will come after much suffering; it will come with our reawakening to Truth.

Lamar W. Hankins : Freedom of Conscience in Hays County, Texas
Posted on April 23, 2012 by Thorne Dreyer
Kyle, Texas-area Constable James Kohler: "If they can't pledge allegiance to that flag, they need to get the hell out of the United States. Image from Hays Free Press. Respect for freedom of conscience
missing in Hays County
By Lamar W. Hankins | The Rag Blog | April 23, 2012
"If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein." –– West Virginia Board of Education v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624 (1943)
SAN MARCOS, Texas — The San Marcos Mercury recently reported that Hays County Commissioner candidate Sam Brannon refused to stand and participate in the Pledge of Allegiance at the beginning of a Commissioners Court meeting about a year ago.
His inaction was challenged by Kyle-area Constable James Kohler, who called out Brannon publicly for standing silently without his hand over his heart during the ceremonial recitation of the pledge at the beginning of the court session.
Kohler is reported to have said, "I've never seen anybody not salute, not put their hand over their heart, when we pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. If they can't pledge allegiance to that flag, they need to get the hell out of the United States." Kohler also noted that Brannon did not bow his head for the court's invocation.
However Kohler's official position is described — high or petty, or perhaps somewhere in between — he has no grounds for impugning the integrity of a citizen for exercising his or her conscience, as the Supreme Court opinion quoted above holds.
I know nothing about Brannon except what I have read in the local media. He may be a scoundrel or an upstanding person, or somewhere in between. Some have called into question Brannon's lifestyle, past political activities, financial dealings as a former candidate, and whether he is a legitimate resident of County Commissioner Precinct 3, in which he is a candidate this year. But those matters are beside the point raised by Kohler. Perhaps a bit of background on the pledge can put this whole matter in context.
The Pledge of Allegiance was written in 1892 by the author, editor, Christian socialist, and Baptist minister Francis Bellamy as part of an advertising campaign to sell flags to schools and promote the magazine The Youth's Companion, for which Bellamy was an employee hired to participate in this promotion. The magazine even worked into its advertising campaign the celebration of the 400th anniversary of Columbus's discovery of the New World, with the flag as the centerpiece — it sold flags to 26,000 schools during the campaign. As written originally, Bellamy's pledge read:
I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
In 1923, the words were modified slightly from "my Flag" to "the Flag of the United States of America." That version lasted until the McCarthy era, when President Eisenhower, in 1954, was persuaded to join with the Knights of Columbus religious group to support having Congress adopt the pledge with the added words "under God" to distinguish the United States from the Soviet Union's "Godless Communism," giving us the pledge as it exists today:
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Originally, Bellamy had prescribed a salute to the flag when the pledge was recited that resembled the Nazi salute. During World War II, this practice was largely abandoned in favor of a hand held over the heart, or in the case of a service man or woman, a military salute.
Of course, no law requires any particular behavior during the recitation of the pledge, but custom and social pressure have usually assured that standing at attention and gesturing as described during the pledge's recitation are followed by most people.
In the 1930s, the expulsion from public school of the children of Jehovah's Witnesses for their unwillingness to salute the flag and recite the pledge led to a Supreme Court decision that venerated patriotism over freedom of conscience.
The parents argued that as Jehovah's Witnesses, the children's allegiance was only to God; thus, to salute the flag and recite the pledge would violate their religious beliefs. But the Supreme Court held that the school district's interest in creating national unity through a patriotic practice allowed school officials to require students to salute the flag in spite of their religious beliefs.
The 1940 decision was grounded in the shibboleth that "National unity is the basis of national security."
Almost immediately after the decision was rendered, Jehovah's Witnesses were set upon by mobs and beaten, and their children were expelled from public schools. According to the book Judging Jehovah's Witnesses: Religious Persecution and the Dawn of the Rights Revolution, by Shawn Francis Peters, by the end of 1940 "more than 1,500 Witnesses in the United States had been victimized in 335 separate attacks." Such attacks included beatings, tarring and feathering, hangings, shootings, maimings, kidnappings, castration, threats, and other acts of violence.
Attacks were reported in Ash Fork, near Prescott, Arizona; Crocker, Missouri; Jasper, Refugio, and Port Arthur, Texas; Hinton and Union City, Oklahoma; Jackson, Mississippi; Litchfield, Carlyle, and Greenville, Illinois; Kennebunk and North Windham, Maine; Connersville, Indiana; Harlan, Kentucky; and elsewhere. Expulsions were reported in Kentucky, Michigan, New Hampshire, Texas, and other states.
Details of the violence appeared in a 1941 report published by the American Civil Liberties Union and signed by well-known national figures, such as Dr. Reinhold Niebuhr, Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick, Rev. Ernest F. Tittle, Rabbi Edward L. Israel, and several others.
The widespread barbarity engendered by the court's opinion, in combination with the fear caused by the rise of totalitarianism in Europe, so shocked the court that it looked for a way to reverse its decision. In 1943, it found a way to do so. In West Virginia Board of Education v. Barnette, the Supreme Court held that mandating recitation "invades the sphere of intellect and spirit which it is the purpose of the First Amendment to our Constitution to reserve from all official control."
The behavior of Constable Kohler toward Sam Brannon is one kind of action that the Supreme Court may have had in mind when it wrote that "no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein."
It is shameful that no public official who witnessed Kohler's outburst toward Brannon challenged it. Reports indicate that Hays County Judge Bert Cobb seemed beguiled by Kohler's behavior. Perhaps all of our public officials are as petty as was Kohler. Certainly, they could all stand to learn something about our constitutional history.
But these are the same public officials who routinely use their public offices to force their preferred religious practices — Christian prayers — on all our citizens at public meetings. I can't imagine that any of them will ever be able to appreciate the importance of the right of conscience that we are guaranteed by the Constitution. They have no problem forcing their theocratic views on us all, and they treat obeisance to the state no differently.
They would be wiser leaders if they heeded the words of Thomas Jefferson written to Benjamin Rush in 1803:
It behoves every man who values liberty of conscience for himself, to resist invasions of it in the case of others; or their case may, by change of circumstances, become his own.

Danny Haszard says:
Jehovah's Witnesses and freedom of speech,the irony.
They have won 37 of their 46 US Supreme court cases assuring us all of freedom of speech and assembly and equal protection under the law.
The sad irony is that the Watchtower Society *daily* abuses the human rights of thousands of its members. It denies current members the right of free speech by forbidding them to speak to former members, even close family members. And it denies former members their right of freedom of worship by refusing to allow them to leave the religion with dignity, should they come to disagree with Watchtower's practices or doctrines.

Formerly, a shy child, Maaliyah Papillion has blossomed into a caring, considerate pageant Queen, who's truly proud of her Creole roots. Kreol spoke to her to explore her heritage and her plans for the future.
The first Creole lady to win the title of Miss Louisiana USA, 21-year old Maaliyah Papillion, hasn't always been so confident in front of a crowd. When she was just two to three years old, her mother would enter her in pageants but she wasn't a fan and took a break to play sports until seventh grade.
From her father, she learned to cook from a young age: traditional dishes such as gumbo and shrimp creole that she's looking forward to passing on to her own children in the future to carry traditions onward. From her Creole mother, she's learned a lot: stories of her childhood experiences and seeing her mother's old photos have brought her closer to her roots, and she says that both sides of her family are very similar.
With a rich cultural heritage, a positive outlook on life and a desire to help others, it's easy to see why Maaliyah Papillion was crowned Miss Louisiana USA. Kreol wishes her every success for the future.

The OnePlus 5 Is Having Some Serious Display Issues Because It Was Mounted Upside-Down
Akshay Bhalla Updated: Jul 4, 2017, 16:03 IST
OnePlus 5 had a great run during the initial phase of its launch. It was the most talked about smartphone in the world, however, people are talking about the phone for different reasons today. The smartphone is facing "Jelly Scrolling" like issues which have caused many users to either return the smartphone for repairs or have it replaced by the Chinese company. The cause of this problem has been discovered, and it is happening because the display has been mounted upside-down.
The problem persists in some of the OnePlus 5 units and it causes the screen display to stretch and condense content. This happens whenever a user swipes up or down when scrolling and can only be noticed if you have the eye for it.
OnePlus acknowledged the problem by mentioning it in their forums and was discovered in the kernel source code of the device by XDA. OnePlus is apparently using a separate software to resolve the issue of a upside-down mounted display. Other Android smartphones do not have this code which denotes that the display has definitely been mounted upside down.
Even after disassembling the OnePlus 5, one can still notice this issue. When compared to the OnePlus 3T, it is clearly visible that the upside-down display was implemented on purpose and it could have been done to make extra room for the camera module.
However one should know that this can occur to even normally mounted displays as it is a characteristic of the technology. You can take your current smartphone (especially if it is an AMOLED), turn it upside down and start scrolling. You will notice a similar jelly like scrolling experience.

Q: Can we use "the other day" to express an event on a day that happened several months ago According to the dictionary

the other day/morning/evening/week...: recently
I saw Jack the other day.
I was in your area the other week.
I woke up the other morning and just could not get myself out of bed.
I was watching TV the other evening, when…

Say, I met a person 100 or 200 or even 300 days ago,
Is it still correct to say "I met him the other day"?

A: No. the other day might reach back as far as two weeks or possibly (as we get older!) three.
100 days ago might be expressed as a few weeks ago (or some weeks ago), 200 as a few months ago and 300 as a year or so ago.

A: No. In this context, "the other day" means something more than one, but no more than ... well, it's not precise, but I'd say something like seven to fourteen. In other words, not yesterday but within the last week-ish. Definitely not 100+.

Men's and women's track come out successful after hosting Inter-Regional Border Battle on Saturday
Jaiden Campana
Senior captain Kevin Veltre (number 284) this past Saturday at the Inter-Regional Border Battle hosted by Rowan. Veltre has three first-place finishes and a second-place finish this year. Photo courtesy of Sports Information.
Both the men's and women's cross country teams were off to the races this past Saturday, as they hosted the Inter-Regional Border Battle for the third consecutive year.
The men's team finished fifth in the event while the women's team took 15th. A total of 250 runners and 28 schools participated for men's cross country, with 239 runners and 27 schools logged for women's.
Senior men's captain Kevin Veltre captured his third top-finish of the year out of the four total races the team has had, finishing the 8K race with a time of 24:44. Junior captain Dan "Fitch" Henry took 21st with a season-best 25:23 recording. Sophomore Matt Russo finished 48th, as six other Profs were able to take spots in the top-100. Veltre was also named New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) Men's Cross Country Runner of the Week for the third time this season.
"I've been working the hardest I ever have," Veltre said. "Mainly, I'm just trying to keep my mindset right, staying positive and incorporating every bit of training I've done into my races. I'm almost surprised about everything. [This season] has been pretty good so far, to say the least."
For the women's team, junior captain Jennifer Klavens finished 41st with a time of 23:05. This tops her season best from last year by just over 30 seconds (23:38) and triumphs her best from 2015 by almost a minute and a half (24:31). All of these personal records have been set at the Inter-Regional Border Battle. Senior captain Emily Acton took 69th place, running in 23:32 and freshman Alyssa Sanders followed shortly after in 79th with a time of 23:42.
"I love showing off this place," said women's cross country coach Derick "Ringo" Adamson. "Especially when it comes to running cross country. This place is one of the very few places, until you hit North/Central [Jersey], where these things are done. I came up in the old regime from when coach [Bill] Fritz was here, so I'm gung-ho to keep this whole thing going. I feel like we can take these things to new heights."
The invitational has boosted the amount of eyes that are set on Rowan after a 2016 season that saw the school host the NCAA Atlantic Region Championships for the first time in school history.
"This builds up Rowan's reputation a bunch to be able to get all these teams out here," Veltre said. "And I'm pretty sure these are the coolest prizes that any racer has. I mean, having a sword is pretty awesome. It raises a lot of money for Rowan and promotes the program more. It helps us print our hand in the nation as a good team that can host teams and as a team that is respectable."
Now, both teams await the NJAC Championships, which will take place at Stockton University on Saturday, Oct. 28 at 10:30 a.m. Last year, the women's team took third place in the competition out of seven teams, and the men's team took second out of eight teams.

The Float House, designed by Morphosis Architects, is the latest design to be built by Brad Pitt's Make It Right Foundation, which is helping families rebuild eco-friendly homes in the Lower Ninth Ward in New Orleans. Photo courtesy of Morphosis Architects.
It's like you're Noah and your house is an arc where people can take refuge from flood waters. Sound crazy? Think again.
Brad Pitt's Make it Right Foundation unveiled the first Float House on Wednesday. The home, designed by Morphosis Architects, basically turns into a giant raft in the event of flooding, rising up on guide posts that keep it from floating away. To say that this design floats my boat is an understatement; but there is one thing about it that my eco-heart can't love: The chassis that allows it to float has a polystyrene core.Polystyrene is Eco-Friendly?
According to an NPR interview with the designer, the polystyrene core is covered by glass-reinforced concrete, but it's unclear whether the polystyrene is completely contained, and if it isn't, there is the risk of off-gassing in the home--not great for the home-owners. And what happens if the concrete coating cracks?
Polystyrene production also requires many harmful chemicals, including benzene, a known carcinogen and potent volatile organic compound, so it's not exactly a fantastically green or healthy option.
While it may not be the greenest option, there are some important benefits to this design.
How do you keep the sense of community and the continuity of the neighborhood, and at the same time deal with this very extreme condition of the flooding? ... The vertical solution seemed to us one way to solve it, but we thought we had a more interesting way, that we could keep the house on the ground.
The other great thing about this home is the building costs are quite low, so it's a great option as low-income housing in flood-prone areas.
...it's thought of as a seatbelt; I mean hopefully it never gets used, but when it gets used, it's important.

Colour Mania: Photographing the World in Autochrome
Catlin Langford
Nakladatel:
Exquisite yet too fragile to exhibit, one of the world's greatest collections of autochromes – a pioneering colour photography process – is presented to a wide audience for the first time.
Offering unprecedented access to the V&A's collection of autochromes – one of the greatest collections of early colour photography in the world – Colour Mania presents this pioneering photographic process in its full, vibrant, wondrous and painterly beauty and provides a breath-taking view of the early 20th century in colour.
Autochromes are so fragile and light sensitive that they cannot be displayed in public – this book presents the only chance to see the V&A's internationally significant collection. Invented by the Lumière brothers – also pioneers of cinema – the autochrome was the first widely available colour photography process. Upon its commercial release in 1907, it was eagerly embraced by Pictorialist photographers and advocated by its leading member Alfred Stieglitz, who predicted 'soon the world will be color-mad'.
Photographed with great care for this book, the V&A's abundant collection of autochromes is brought to the public for the very first time. Organized thematically and with in-depth sections focusing on the photographers who engaged with the process, Colour Mania is built upon the latest scholarship and research by Catlin Langford and includes insights into how these extraordinary photographs are being preserved for future generations.
An opportunity to travel in time and understand a tour de force in photographic technology, Colour Mania will delight anyone who desires to experience the past in colour.
Catlin Langford is a curator currently based in Naarm/Melbourne. She was the inaugural Curatorial Fellow in Photography, supported by The Bern Schwartz Family Foundation at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.

If you've been reading these pages for a few years now, you might recognize Eastern Spirit Garage from Poland. Every year or so, Sylwester turns out a beautifully constructed custom from often unpromising source material—notably the Honda CX500 or Suzuki's GS series.
He has an eye for a good line; a CX500 from five years ago was a textbook example of a modern day cafe racer. Industrial designer Charlie Trelogan even used it for his seminal piece on cafe racer styling.
Eastern Spirit are now back with a new build, a GS550 inspired by a similar Suzuki that was a huge hit on EXIF a year ago. "We put the blue GS on display in Warsaw and our client Zbyszek saw it," says Sylwester.
The GS series was Suzuki's first foray into four-stroke engine technology—and they got it right straight off the bat. The GS750 big brother was a favorite with road testers, and the GS550 was no slouch either: it was faster than the Honda CB550F Super Sport and even Suzuki's own GT550 two-stroke.
Unfortunately, any GS still on the road these days is likely to be pretty tired, and so was the donor bike that Eastern Spirit finally managed to locate. So they tore down and rebuilt the 549 cc inline four, restoring the brisk original performance.
There's a full complement of new gaskets and seals, plus new valves and piston rings, and a new clutch. A coat of gleaming high-temperature metallic black paint makes sure the outside looks as good as the inside.
The suspension has been rebuilt too, with shortened forks fitted with new internals and shorter and stiffer springs. Leveling out the stance are new YSS shocks at the rear.
The stock GS550 brakes were good for the day, but Eastern Spirit have gone for an upgrade with twin floating discs at the front—from a GSF750 Bandit, they suspect—fed by a front master cylinder is from a Honda VFR.
At the back are Tokico two-piston calipers from a Bandit 600, in full view thanks to the short, hand-made muffler, and hooked up to a Yamaha R1 master cylinder. Getting the brakes and reservoir to fit meant rebuilding the swingarm.
Visual distractions are minimized: there's a simple Daytona speedo, the electrics are well hidden, the footpegs are custom-made and there are simple new aftermarket levers on the bars, modified to fit.
The tank and the new tail unit are finished in seven layers of Rolls-Royce paint, for a remarkably lustrous finish, topped off with a simple knurled fuel cap.
The effect is sharp and luxurious. And as crisp as a cold shot of the Belvedere vodka made a few kilometers to the east of Sylvester's workshop. More, please.

Factual error: In the hospital, Corporal Friedrich Schiess tells William and Robert Jones that he's a member of the Natal Mounted Police. In actuality, Cpl. Schiess was a member of the Natal Native Contingent, a distinctly different branch of the colonial forces. The Natal Mounted Police did, however, have three men present at the Battle of Rorke's Drift: Troopers Lugg, Green, and Hunter, and Trooper Henry Lugg later published two detailed accounts of the battle.
Continuity mistake: Chard gets struck on the neck by a Zulu shield, and he falls as if severely wounded. There's no blood on his neck, yet later when Bromhead pulls him upright, his collar is smeared with it. Anyway, how can a blow like that knock him silly? Bromhead was later struck by a Zulu shield on the neck as well, yet he was fine.
Revealing mistake: In the scene where the cavalry arrive (Chard thinks they are coming to help) and ride up to the sandbag wall, you can quite see the lighting being turned on as they get near. For a few seconds they are all in heavy shadow under their hat brims, then suddenly their faces are well lit. It's not a cut, it's one continuous shot.
Michael Redfern
Continuity mistake: During one of the attacks, the Zulus are charging en masse towards the ramparts manned by British riflemen. When Bromhead yells "Fire!" the soldiers open fire with their rifles....and some Zulus at the REAR of the charge fall dead whilst those in the front continue charging, uninjured.
Factual error: The film seems - through dialogue from the soldiers and the preacher - to suggest that the Zulus were the aggressors ("savages") in this in the actual Anglo Zulu war. In fact the British had crossed illegally into Zululand to provoke a war. The crossing point of the Buffalo river into the Zulu kingdom was Rorke's Drift - and so the Zulu attack on it was not from savage whimsy, but came from a Zulu contingent eager to see action as they were reserves at Isandlwana.
DeBigC
Continuity mistake: During the latter Zulu attacks, a number of charging Zulus fall to the ground clutching their chests as if shot before a single shot has been fired.
More for Zulu
Lieutenant John Chard: The army doesn't like more than one disaster in a day.
Bromhead: Looks bad in the newspapers and upsets civilians at their breakfast.
More quotes from Zulu
Trivia: In the scene at the start of the film where Lt. Bromhead is riding his horse along and across the stream, it is not Michael Caine on the horse, as at that stage in his career he could not ride, he told the director he could as to get the part. Caine did try to ride it but he could not do it, so one of the filming crew took his place as a riding double. That's why the camera pans down onto the horse as it crosses the stream.
More trivia for Zulu
Question: I first saw the movie in a cinema when it was first released. I'm quite sure I saw a scene which was later edited out, perhaps to accommodate the ratio of television screens. Before the attack various soldiers stop to listen to a strange sound echoing over the hills - "like a train" someone says. After we hear the sound twice my memory is that the movie cut to a panoramic view of thousands of Zulu warriors running across the veld, banging their shields with their spears, on their way to Rorke's Drift. This is what was causing the "train" sound, a phenomenon that is not explained subsequently anywhere in the edited version of the film. The dramatic effect of the shot, panning across what looks like thousands of armed Zulus, was riveting and served to emphasise the impossible odds faced by the British. Am I the only one who recalls this scene?
Answer: Absolutely correct. This exact scene is in my DVD of Zulu. They may have changes when the TV version aired, but this definitely in the original.

Chief Mangosuthu Buthelezi, who played King Cetewayo in the film is actually a real-life distant descendant of the very same Zulu king he was playing. Small wonder the producers decided to choose him to play Cetewayo.


Everyone's favourite pirate radio crew comes to Bristol for a Motion takeover.
Anyone who has seen the People Just Do Nothing stars doing their live thing will know Kurupt FM goes way beyond comedy. You only need to take a look at the list of acts who've appeared on stage with them to know the respect is real, having called on the likes of Stormzy, Newham Generals and DJ Luck & MC Neat in the past. The group from the series all have previous playing on pirate radio and the show is created with such affection for the scene it should be no surprise Steves, Beats and Grindah know how to rock a party. With a 'Lost Tape' in the pipeline for real on XL, the crew bring their classic selection of 2-step and garage and recreate 'the best set they ever played'.
Support comes from Big Narstie, who with his infectious vibe always brings the heat whenever he plays in Bristol. In Toddla T, we have another legend of UK music and radio culture, drawing on UK bass music in all its forms, while 1Xtra's DJ Target is also on hand: a man who, as Roll Deep's DJ and Rinse FM OG, has earned his status as one of the most reliable selectors on the circuit.
With Nicky Blackmarket, the man behind Blackmarket records and its legendary jungle section, we've got drum & bass covered, and the Blast DJs represent the scene locally. Expect nothing less than shellings all over from this one.

There were 700 million of these little red books printed during Chinas Cultural Revolution! People used to carry them around as protection from persecution. This one is in English, 1966 edition, 311 pages of wisdom. Some of the quotations were dated and Mao at the time would not approve. The real purpose of the book was as a tool by Lin Bio, to bring Mao down from ultimate political power.
A fascinating read - and a springboard to many a revolution! Book measures 5 x 3 1/2 x 3/4-inch.
Against all the odds, Mao succeeded in taking rule of China. Read an insight how.

Джон Ланкастер (20 червня 1389 — 14 вересня 1435) — англійський аристократ, 1-й герцог Бедфорд, військовий та політичний діяч часів Столітньої війни.

Життєпис

Молоді роки
Походив з династії Ланкастерів. Син Генріха IV, короля Англії, та Марії де Богун. Про молоді роки Джона мало відомостей. Під час коронації батька 12 жовтня 1399 року його було висвячено на лицаря. У 1402 році став кавалером Ордену Підв'язки. Був також призначений у 1402 році господарем стайні й соколів. У 1402—1405 роках з успіхом воював проти роду Персі на півночі Англії, придушив повстання валлійців. Для цього його було призначено констеблем Англії у 1403 році. Після зміцнення влади Ланкастерів в Англії отримав значну частину земель родини Персі, став графом Вілтшир, у 1403 році отримав посаду очільника Східної марки, губернатора міста Бервік.

Після приходу до влади його брата Генріха у 1414 році отримав титули герцога Бедфорда, графа Річмонда, графа Кендала. На час відсутності короля Генріха V Джон Бедфорд у 1415—1422 роках з перервами виконував обов'язки намісника королівства.

Регент Франції
Після смерті Генріха V розділив владу із братом Хамфрі Глостерським. Бедфорд став регентом Французького королівства. Тоді ж висадився у Франції, зумівши упорядкувати англійські та союзницькі їм сили на півночі Франції із званнями лейтенант Нормандії, намісник Парижа. У 1423 році уклав союз з Бургундією, тоді ж переміг французів у битві при Краване. У 1424 році Джон Бедфорд розбив війська дофіна Карла у битві при Верне. Вслід за цим коронував небожа Генріха VI у Парижі. Втім це виявилося помилкою з огляду на порушення вікової традиції коронації французьких королів у Реймсі. Після появи Жанни д'Арк у 1429 році, а у 1431 році й коронації дофіна Карла, як Карла VII, становище англійців різко погіршилося. Втім Бедфорду вдалося відбити атаки французів, захопити й стратити Жанну д'Арк того ж року. Проте успіхи короля Карла VII змусили Філіппа III, герцога Бургундії, розірвати союз із Англією. Все це спонукало Джона Бедфорда розпочати перемовини у Аррасі у 1435 році. Під час перемовин він помер у Руані 14 вересня 1435 року.

Меценатство
Сприянням Джона Бедфорда у 1432 році був відкритий Університет у Кані. Підтримував написання численних ілюстрованих рукописів, зібравши значну бібліотеку. Початок цьому поклав рукопис, отриманий як посаг за дружину Анну Бургундську.

Відомі, так званні «Требник Бедфорда», «Часослов Бедфорда» та «Псалтир Бедфорда», які були написані майстрами з Парижа.

WITHIN: Film Review
Posted on: August 2nd, 2017
If you get a feeling of déjà vu watching the opening scenes of Within, it's because you have indeed seen it before. Countless times. The actors may be different and the overall look glossier, but this tale begins as so many have before it, with a couple and their teenage kid moving into a new home, only for strange occurrences to begin plaguing their nights. In this case the bland but pretty family consists of John (Michael Vartan), his new wife Melanie (Nadine Velazquez) and John's daughter Hannah (Erin Moriarty). No sooner have they begun covering their walls with tacky, middle class crap than Hannah begins to hear strange noises, and becomes convinced that something is not right in their new house. It soon comes out that a family were butchered there, and the previous owners simply upped and left. Hannah delves into the house's past, and finds out that the walls hold a secret that none of them expected.
The first act of Within throws every conceivable cliché into the mix – the creepy neighbour, pictures falling from walls, close-ups of setting the house alarm – and features entirely throwaway dialogue masquerading as characterisation. We've seen these characters before, we've heard this dialogue before and, watching Within, you start to think 'what's the point?' And the thing is, when somewhere around the halfway mark the script does actually deviate from the story it initially purports to be, it's barely a surprise, chiefly because the first act sticks so rigidly to established formulae that you're awaiting – and fully expecting – the moment when the film introduces its own idea.
While Within may be as generic as they come however, it's engaging enough, rolling along quite easily to what is actually a rather nicely executed third act. And even its overly familiar first half contains some not ineffective scare scenes of Hannah creeping around the house at night, handled competently by director Phil Claydon in his first feature since almost killing his career before it had begun with 2009's Lesbian Vampire Killers. It all feels very safe (which is not what horror needs to be), with the threat from greasy, sleazy neighbour Ray the closest we get to any kind of unpredictability or excess.
While they are not given much exciting to work with, Velazquez (best known as Catalina in My Name is Earl and deserving of better parts than she is given here) and rising star Moriarty (Captain Fantastic, Blood Father) do what they can to elevate the material, and it's always kinda nice to see Vartan, even doing the dull everyman thing that he seems unable to escape these days. And then there's Poltergeist's JoBeth Williams on hand to lend a touch of class, doing what she can in the 'older neighbour giving the teenager the lowdown on the house's history' role.
An entertaining enough way to spend an hour and a half, Within manages to make something just about worthwhile out of a lazy, generic script and underwritten characters. We seem to be in a new golden age of intelligent and intellectually challenging horror, and most of us simply don't have time in our viewing schedules for this kind of thing. Proof that director Claydon is a safe pair of hands if little more though, the film is seldom boring, and if you're after an easy horror watch and some jolting but safe scares, you could certainly do a lot worse.

What's Fuerteventura all about? Golden beaches and watersports!
What's So Fabulous About Fuerteventura?
Fuerteventura is often associated with adjectives like 'fabulous' or 'fantastic', and to regular visitors, that's no surprise. But to those who aren't in the know, the question still remains: what's so fabulous (or fantastic) about holidays in Fuerteventura?
The answer is, plenty! For starters, as holiday destinations go, Fuerteventura has the advantage of being a year-round haunt. It's part of the ever-popular Canary Islands, an archipelago cast out into the Atlantic Ocean not far from the coast of West Africa.
Come in summer for scorching temperatures with a refreshing coastal breeze, or opt for a visit during Christmas or the New Year for a winter warmer, when the temperatures are often pleasant enough for a t-shirt and cardigan.
So that's the climate sewn up. But what about things to do? That all depends on where you go, but when it comes to holidays in Fuerteventura; you can certainly expect to find some fantastic beaches. In fact, Fuerteventura is renowned for being the 'quiet' island.
Compared to its livelier neighbours of Tenerife, Lanzarote and Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura is a relatively laid-back affair which makes for a cracking beach break. It's home to some fantastic beaches, where mile upon mile of golden sands glitter under cloudless blue skies, and the refreshing coastal breeze and cool chill of the Atlantic offers a welcome respite from the sizzling Canarian sunshine.
In Corralejo you'll find a popular resort with fantastic beaches and a water park, along with plenty of watersports and family-friendly activities. Then there's Costa Caleta, which offers a sheltered bay with calm areas for little paddling feet.
Jandia is another popular resort, which is a great spot for water sports enthusiasts and offers a superb range of accommodation with a number of luxury hotels. Take a look at Thomas Cook's Fuerteventura offering. As you'll see, there are plenty of cracking resorts to choose from and a long list of things to see and do.
