Run faster as adidas Running brings you to your next PR this 2013 with the new adizero F50 Runner 3. The adizero F50 Runner 3 continues its lightweight construction and added the new Sprintframe platform for running stability and support. It has retained the adiPrene+ at the forefoot, the Torsion System at the midfoot, and the Formotion at the rearfoot.
The upper material has a clean and seamless design where the three stripes stand out. The outsoles are highly durable with adiwear to take you to long miles of running light and fast. And it is adidas miCoach compatible to help you track your speed, distance and and progress while running. No wonder, the adizero series are trusted by elite runners who are world champions and world record holders like as Yohan Blake (JAM), David Rudisha (KEN) and Patrick Makau (KEN).
adizero F50 Runner 3 is now available in Sport Performance Stores and other Sports retailers nationwide with a recommended retail price of 5,695 Php.
The next gear of fast is within reach. The adizero F50 Runner 3, the latest member of adidas' highest performing lightweight range, is a result of precise engineering and thorough research to help athletes find new levels of fast.
The adizero F50 Runner 3 features the lightest advanced technologies such as the SPRINTFRAME platform. It replaces the conventional (more heavyweight) shoe construction while maintaining important performance characteristics, such as comfort and stability, and allowing for optimum forefoot propulsion. Fully integrated in the SPRINTFRAME platform is the TORSION® SYSTEM which allows independent movement of the fore- and rearfoot.
Inspired by the dynamic 3-Stripes execution and seamless upper design of the F50 football boot, which is worn on the field of play by adidas football ambassadors such as Lionel Messi, the F50 Runner 3 also features FORMOTION™ technology which adjusts to every runner's individual style and assists the runner's take-off with every stride. The shoe also offers full forefoot adiPRENE®+ which propels the forefoot for an improved toe-off.
Some of the fastest athletes in the world, such as Yohan Blake (100m World Champion), David Rudisha (Olympic 800m gold medalist and world record holder) and Patrick Makau (marathon world record holder) trust the adizero range in their competitions.
The adizero F50 Runner 3, which is miCoach compatible, is available in adidas Sport Performance Stores and other Sports retailers nationwide with a recommended retail price of PHP 5695.

The Best of British - Emsworth British Food Fortnight
Well we can't quite believe it but we are already half way through Emsworth British Food Fortnight!
For a reasonably small village Emsworth enjoys a great reputation in regards to its quality restaurants and independent food shops. Emsworth British Food Fortnight aims to do it's bit, to highlight this, and encourage us all to support our local food businesses and celebrate all things wonderfully edible and British.
Check out all listings and what's going on here http://www.emsworth.org.uk
Meanwhile, at Chalcrafts, although we cannot offer you anything to tickle your tastebuds, we do love to highlight British craftsmanship and manufacture at it's best. So, when better than now, to put the spotlight firmly on one of our favourites - a product you will also find in the kitchen, helping you store and display all your kitchen supplies in a truly stylish manner, - it's the fabulous "Cornish Ware".
Unlike the name suggests, "Cornish Ware" was actually produced by the Derbyshire pottery "T.G. Green of Church Gresley", from the end of the 1920s
through to the mid 1980s. The classic white and blue banded stripe
of "Cornish Ware" has become a firm favourite amongst collectors and interior
designers alike. One of the most fun aspects of collecting "Cornish Ware" is
seeking out the rarer shapes and the lettered household jars - with some of the
more exotic ingredients of the time, proving far more tricky to get hold of. The household jars were produced in a wide range of sizes, with everything from "Almonds" to "Wholemeal" transferred onto them. T. G. Green even offered a bespoke lettering service at one time, producing some one-of-a-kind jars that still get collectors hot under the collar!
Now sadly produced in China, the older British pieces still hold their charm, and because we love Cornish Ware's style and quality so much, we
always endeavour to keep some in stock - in fact Liz has just acquired a new Biscuit Jar which goes on sale this week.
So if you are visiting Emsworth during the British Food Fortnight (or at any other time!) why not pop in and see what's in our current selection or call us on 01243 377558 for a full run down.
A star is born....
Did you happen to catch Martin's starring role in "Celebrity Antiques Road Trip" Tuesday? It may have been a flying visit but expert Paul Laidlaw and actor Brian Cox (of "Braveheart" and "Silence of The Lambs" fame) didn't beat about the bush. Within minutes of entering our shop they secured a lovely selection of enamel signs for their stash.
The collection included a bright and bold Brooke Bond tea sign and a very collectible level crossing sign both from the 1950s. After the traditional,
outrageously hard haggling, that has become such a feature of such shows, the signs were duly taken away for the bargain price of £115. And the result at auction? A small profit was made (not bad when buying in a retail establishment to sell at auction - what is traditionally viewed as the "wholesale" end of the antiques trade!).
With plenty of banter between shots, a fun day was had by everyone, and with all profits going to Children In Need, it was indeed a pleasure to be involved.

Best in Show!
If you are local to Emsworth you may have noticed we occasionally deliver our furniture in our fabulous 1939 Morris 10cwt truck. Being one of only a couple left on the road, it certainly turns a few heads and you may have noticed it's beautiful signwriting (thank you Signmaster of Emsworth!) on our homepage.
So it is with great pleasure that we can announce that yesterday Martin's pride and joy was recognised by the public as a thing of beauty, winning "Best in Show", after a public vote, hosted by Stewart Miller and Peter James Insurance at Goodwood Revival.
After the initial free entry all finalists were picked by none other than Sir Stirling Moss - a huge complement in itself! Up against extremely stiff competition, including amongst others, a 1953 Jaguar, 1964 Triumph, 1962 Aston Martin and a 1952 Rolls Royce, we were, shall we say, slightly dubious of our chances. It would seem however, that the nostalgia our truck evokes stirred something in the public, and compelled them to vote both online and at the show.
A BIG thank you to all of you who voted - you made our day - and gave a perfect birthday gift to Martin! (We'll let you know when he finally stops grinning!)

German Automaker Sets Up Shop Closer To Home.
BMW is looking to set up shop closer to home in the wake of shifting global trade politics that are a threat to the Munich-based carmaker as well as other global manufacturers. The plant will produce 150,000 vehicles a year, according to the German manufacturer of luxury cars.
BMW Group has earmarked 1 billion Euros ($1.17 billion) for setting up a new manufacturing plant. The new facility is coming up in the town of Debrecen, Hungary. BMW is outfitting the plant in such a way that it will be able to produce both electric as well as conventional vehicles on a single assembly line. "In the future, every BMW Group plant in Europe will be equipped to produce electrified as well as conventional vehicles," said Oliver Zipse, BMW Production Chief Officer.
The Hungary plant is BMW's return to Europe after almost two decades. The last plant set up in Europe was in Leipzig, Germany, way back in 2000. BMW now owns and operates 31 production and assembly facilities worldwide excluding Debrecen's proposed plant. Like other global carmakers, the company is facing immense pressure between shifting global trade politics that are rapidly weakening the conducive atmosphere carefully cultivated to lower barriers, and record spending on electric and autonomous vehicles.
BMW's Spartanburg, South Carolina plant that is currently facing tariff threats.
Currently, BMW produces most of its X-series of crossovers from its South Carolina facility, from where they are exported to Europe. With looming tariff threats, this strategy could become problematic. Recently, China raised import tariffs for goods from the U.S., forcing the German company to hike prices of its crossovers in the Chinese market.
Hungary seems to be the best bet for BMW as it is on European soil automatically excluding import taxes from the sticker price of its cars. Big names like Audi, Mercedes-Benz, and Suzuki have manufacturing plants in Hungary while the PSA-Opel Group produces engines in the country. Additionally, the new plant is a boon for Hungary as it will open up a total of 1,000 new jobs in the country's strained labor market. With an unemployment rate sitting at 3.6 percent, Hungary is welcoming of BMW's decision to set up shop in Debrecen. The country has even more reason to encourage automakers to install production facilities within its borders as 21 percent of Hungary's economic product was produced by carmakers, outputting goods to the tune of $29.45 billion last year.
BMW says that both electric and conventional cars will be produced on a single assembly line in Debrecen, Hungary.


She's too young to ask, or really care where babies come from, but before I know it, the questions and comments will start rolling in, so I best be prepared now. I took to the Internet where mums are always willing to share the hysterical things their kids have said and asked them to question their three-year-olds on how they think the baby got in Mom's tummy. Their answers are priceless.
"My daughter says babies come from God when the mummies are ready. He doesn't wait for daddies 'cause they can take longer." —Sara R.
"My daughter was about three when she found out that some babies are born vaginally—both my surviving children were C-sections and they understand the doctors helped pull them out. It didn't occur to me that she didn't know about vaginal births. But when I explained, she was horrified, looked down at her crotch, and burst into tears declaring she would never have a baby come out there. Serious mum fail right there. I've tried to educate her much better now! But in fourth grade, she made a book and proudly told the teacher all about vaginal births, so there's that." —Jill S.
"My son knew you needed a seed from a Mum and a seed from a Dad to make a baby. He had no clue where the seeds came from—he had never asked that level of detail. One day he asked me, 'Mommy, is it gross when Daddy puts the seed in your mouth to give you a baby?' What the hell, kid?" —Audrey M.


In Top of Mind, we revisit the 'grandparent deficit' discussion. After a trip to the doctor's office, much like the rest of America, Rich realizes why Health Insurance is a cruel joke. The future is here, and you should be afraid, very afraid. In Feedback and Follow-up (28min) listener questions cover long distance marriages (TGOS Ep 62); why men hold on to women's phone numbers forever, ever, ever; "what age do men finally mature?"; why moms have horrible taste in women; and what we common folk can learn from Kenya Moore's situation dating the "married guy." Finally, the WIMRANT asks: Should Independent Women Still Expect Chivalrous Men?

The New York Collection for Stockholm Portfolio
In the early 1970s the New York–based group Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.) put together a collection of some of the most important American art of the 1960s, including Pop, Minimal, and Conceptual practices, with the aim of donating it to a public museum. They chose thirty works by thirty artists in a variety of mediums and selected the Moderna Museet in Stockholm as the recipient due to its strong history of support for American contemporary art. To help raise the funds necessary to build the collection, E.A.T. asked each of the selected artists to create a print as part of a portfolio of lithographs and silkscreens—The New York Collection for Stockholm—which was sold in an edition of 300. This exhibition presents the complete portfolio, which includes works by Lee Bontecou, Dan Flavin, Hans Haacke, Ellsworth Kelly, Louise Nevelson, Claes Oldenburg, Nam June Paik, Robert Rauschenberg, Richard Serra, and Cy Twombly, among others. The portfolio is significant for the cultural, political, and social history that surrounds it and for the generosity and cooperation that it represents among a distinguished cross section of avant-garde artists.
This Teaching Gallery exhibition is curated by Lisa Bulawsky, professor of art and director of Island Press, and Tom Reed, senior lecturer and master printer of Island Press, both in the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts, in conjunction with the course taught by Reed titled "The Printed Image," offered in spring 2018.

Mercedes-benz unimog u relates to the amazing brand Mercedes-benz.
Once again, Mercedes-Benz Unimog has got the title of the best "special vehicle" according to the opinion of reader of "Off Road" magazine. So, Mercedes-Benz Unimog represents the family of universal off-road vehicles for special use (a large amount of additional attachments is available for it). The car was developed for transportation of goods in extreme conditions. The first model was created shortly after the World War II (in 1945) for usage in agriculture, the serial production started from 1949, and it got the brand name "Mercedes-Benz" in 1951. The car was designed with permanent four-wheel drive with the wheels of the same size to ride the roads at higher speeds than standard tractors did. Today the brand Unimog includes three series: - heavy (437), which consists of U 4000 model and U 5000, developed for driving on rugged terrain; they are designed to work in difficult road conditions. They get through natural disasters, forest fires to the most remote places which is the impossible task for most ATVs. - medium (405), which includes such models as U 300, U 400 and U 500, it is used with attachments. They are used as an all-terrain vehicle in the municipal services of the city, in agriculture, in construction and energy management. - lightweight model U 20 was made only for the left drive movement and it is based on the shorten base of U 300 with a cab-over-engine, borrowed from the Brazilian light truck Accelo. As a result, the radius of turning is less than 6,3 m. This allows the truck to maneuver in the narrow streets and overpass the off-road. It has also the outstanding cross characteristics: the angles of entry/lowering are respectively 27 and 30 degrees. This version has a four-cylinder 4.25 l. turbo diesel OM 904 LA with a capacity of 150-hp. The machine has the locking of the front and rear differential and permanent all-wheel drive. Mercedes-Benz Unimog has a high ground clearance and a flexible frame, which is the part of the suspension, that's why it can not be used for transportation of the large amount of goods as the common vehicles.

CLEANUP OF MIDVALE YARDS MAY INCLUDE NEW LAYER OF DIRT
Lane Williams, Staff Writer
SHARE CLEANUP OF MIDVALE YARDS MAY INCLUDE NEW LAYER OF DIRT
Some homeowners near the Sharon Steel tailings may have a layer of dirt as thick as 18 inches removed from their yards and then replaced, or they may have a layer of dirt 12 inches thick trucked in to cover their yards.
Those are two of the proposals presented by state and federal environmental officials to combat the potential health effects of the tailings, which can be seen carried by the wind on many days.The tailings contain lead, cadmium and arsenic, which can cause various illnesses, even if contact is relatively small.
Lead in soil can be transmitted into vegetables, prompting fearsof local gardeners.
The bottom line for individual homeowners in the area is each garden is different. Some people might have used the tailings as fill to put air into the soil. That would give a high lead content. Others may have added lots of peat moss, which lowers the relative lead content. So people who want to know how safe they are should have their gardens tested. It costs about $15 for the state to do it. State officials can provide information of what kind of sample to bring.
Five possible options for cleanup were presented to about 50 homeowners and other interested people Wednesday night in the Midvale City Center.
Residents quietly listened to the proposals with few expressing strong opinions about the controversial subject.
Attorneys for Sharon Steel and ARCO, including former Gov. Scott Matheson, were there in force, arguing that a clean-up of yards, which may cost anywhere from $1.4 million to $70 million, is not necessary.
The attorneys presented a study prepared by a researcher at the University of Cincinnati, and supported by Primary Children's Medical Center pediatrician and toxicologist William Banner. The study, which has yet to be reviewed by state and federal officials, said Midvale children have significantly less lead in their blood than the national average.
Environmental Protection Agency officials and state agencies have not conducted a lead-content-in-blood study of Midvale children because mathematical models can be used to show how much lead will get into people's blood, state toxicologist Daniel Symonik said.
In about two weeks, the EPA will choose one of five tentative proposals for cleanup. Another public hearing will be held on the subject in June.
(Additional information)
Tailings solutions
Five proposals for dealing with the tailings problem:
- Doing nothing
- Replacing the dirt
- Covering tailings with new dirt
- Chemically treating the tailings so the elements do not move through the soil.


Why is it important to get out there and connect with other humans?
That is a question I have been plagued with for most of my life. I am afraid of social situations where I fear I am going to be judged or victimized by others. For a long time, I found it much easier to tuck myself away in my tiny room with my laptop and get by on my virtual presence.
That only works for so long. You know what they say, "don't believe your own press!" While likes and pithy comments on my pictures and articles are nice, I have often wondered whether my purpose here on social media is REALLY hitting the pulse. Are people really impacted by the things I am trying to express? What ACTUAL tidbits of advice and perspective are people actually walking away with and applying to their everyday lives?
A few of you out there have been following me for sometime. Some of you have read my book "Toilet Paper People" and found some amount of value from my child abuse experience. I am genuinely moved to tears when I here from those who can relate and have found healing through my words. I've taken a break from "Toilet Paper People. Not, from my mission of advocacy for others suffering like I have and continue to. I had to take a very real break from the telling of my story. I had to find a way to actually heal from the wounds of my past. Writing is an excellent way of getting it out, but I realized that I had little hope to offer outside of my written words.
For people like me, it is important to get the story out. It is even more important to find ways of re-creating ourselves and our perspective on the world at-large. After writing my book, I was faced with "what next?" I had forced myself into the deepest end of the pool and resurfaced blind. That's a scary place to be. I knew that judging every social interaction with the same lens I had to have with my adoptive parents wouldn't be fair to those who encountered me. I had to find a way of relating to people that wouldn't be so uncertain. Feeling too often like I had my hand on the trigger during seemingly ordinary conversations , I allowed myself to become a recluse and prayed for a good long time about ways I could make my existence easier and more rewarding.
Thinking back on my experience in those darkest of days, I remembered the scrappy little dolls I created out of toilet paper. That creative spark was the thing that saved me from becoming an outright terrorist. Instead of focusing on my anger and fear, I focused my attention on the creation of these little dolls and found hope and purpose. I can't imagine what would have happened to me had I not learned how to be creatively resourceful.
Fast-forwarding to today, I recognized that I had lapsed in my willingness to hold myself accountable to the ideals I was blessed with at a very young age.
EVERYONE IS BLESSED WITH AN OUTLET.
Our lives are dependent on determining what that outlet is... the earlier, the better.
Bored with the white toilet paper, glue sticks, and toothpicks, it wasn't difficult to fall in love with the colors I would find while playing around with photo-editing software long after the nightmare of my childhood was through. In much the same way I got lost with my toilet paper people, I get lost in my art. Do you know what the funny thing is? I have found that when I'm able to get lost in my art, I am better able to relate to people. It is much easier to talk about my art and colors and fantasy than it is to talk about the years I lost to abusive parents.
I want to teach other young adults how to do that. I want to do ANYTHING I can to provide creative resources to those who need them the most. It took me a long time to find the resources I would need to create the art that has healed me. I hope that you will be able to join me at my event in Nashville on March 24th. I have included a link here where you can buy tickets. If you don't live in Nashville but would still like to support my mission, I will donate your ticket sale to a local charity who shares my goal. I want to thank each and every one of those who has reached out to me over the years. Your energy and hope CAN move mountains.
Dark Humor in Toilet Paper People?.... Why, of Course!
An All Out Great Read!
"Being a survivor myself, of childhood abuse, I generally avoid "survivor" stories as I am at the point in my story where I don't want to be reminded of these experiences. Been there done that for too many years. Plus, I consider myself a book snob, and am picky about what I read.
However, I encountered Cherry's blog quite by accident and loved what I read. I dearly wanted to read more, and my only option was to read "toilet paper people". Yes, her suffering at the hands of a sociopathic parental figure was despicable, and many times I wanted to jump into the book and murder "that woman."
However, what are more important to me about this book are the skill, dark humor, and power of observation that show up on every page.
I kept turning the pages for those reasons and finished "toilet paper people" in one day.
Instead of feeling re-traumatized myself, I felt enriched by such fine craft. Ms. Tigris is a multi talented artist who also writes and performs hypnotic, compelling music. Fasten your seat belt: she is a force to be reckoned with!"
My art will be showcased at their April Powerhouse Awards Luncheon!
Shame Should Fall on the Child Abusers... not the Victims.
Visit Toilet Paper People's profile on Pinterest.
"We carry this so that future generations' load will be lighter, so that this movement to change the world will be less of a burden. So that instead of having to start a conversation about these issues within their communities, they can join one that is already going on.
"This book resonated to my very core even though I have no personal experience with the thematic content. Cherry Tigris writes so beautifully; her voice expresses both the pain of a tortured innocent child and the strength of a woman who has overcome. There were many times I felt I could not finish the book, but the connection Cherry made with me as an narrator to a reader meant that I did not feel I could put it away, lest I be one more person unwilling to save a little girl from her abuser."
"Cherry Tigris is one of my favorite voices that addresses some visceral places in our society. She is a fantastic example of how using her creativity, vulnerability, courage and experience gives voice to change in the world."

Effort and patience and generic dish soap
Cranky Old Man #73
To mark the one-year anniversary of prosecuting little people, fools and easy targets instead of the people who organized the 1/6/2020 riots and insurrection, Attorney General Merrick Garland has emerged from his shadow to say a few words. What he said reinforces my belief that he's a schmuck who shouldn't be Attorney General:
"These acts and threats of violence are not associated with any one set of partisan or ideological views," Garland said.
Schmuck.
The I-95 crisis — a wreck blocks traffic in snow and ice, so people are trapped on the freeway for a day, hoping for help — is an embarrassment, and it's miraculous nobody died, this time.
In icy climes and times, there will be snow and ice and accidents that shut down long stretches of the freeways. This is predictable. Responsible leaders should have a plan in place. Why no plan?
George Harrison as Pirate Bob
Almost a month ago, on an afternoon that ended with a visit to the emergency room, I spent an hour and a half puking into a salad bowl. The liquid and chunks from that bowl were flushed, of course, but the bowl itself was buried under other dishes, and it wasn't until this afternoon that I got around to washing it.
Soon as the hot water splashed onto it, the stench reinvented itself — ah, sweet memories. I should probably wash the dishes more often. With effort and patience and generic dish soap, almost all things get better. That's my profound thought for the day.
Now that same bowl is filled with with lettuce and cherry tomatoes, black olives, banana peppers, and thousand island dressing, and life is good.
Archbishop Tutu laid to rest in cheapest available coffin to avoid flashy displays
Local authorities had blocked construction of a mosque for reasons of bullshit, but a court says the mosque must be allowed to be built.
Often I'm accused of pessimism, so perhaps I should apologize in advance, but in Mississippi, it takes a court order to OK a mosque? If these Muslims can find a local contractor willing to build their mosque, they'll need to hire 24/7 security too, to prevent locals from torching the building.

Here's now-former New York Times columnist Ben Smith, announcing that he's starting an un-named new "global news organization":
"There are 200 million people who are college educated, who read in English, but who no one is really treating like an audience, but who talk to each other and talk to us," Ben Smith said. "That's who we see as our audience."
Read that three times and tell me what it means, please.
Smith first caught my attention because the New York Times let him report about BuzzFeed while he owned Buzzfeed stock, so I'll tell you what it means: We should look forward to his new project with scant interest.

Critical Race Theory means teaching facts when we're teaching history. Facts, that's all. Inarguable facts like, Whitey did a lot of godawful things, and still does.
Liars, of course, are opposed to teaching the facts of history, like the fact that Whitey did a lot of godawful things. That's the entire 'controversy' over CRT, so pick a side — should history classes teach history? Yes or no.

Yesterday, unexpected in a box, I discovered lots of Skittles left over from when I worked in an office two years ago, and had a candy dish on my desk. Immediately I ate about 100 pieces, before doublechecking my premises.
In my stupid logic, buying candy would be cheating on my diet, of course, but finding candy is AOK, and makes it lower in calories?
The idiot then placed the rest of the candy on the shared shelf as a charitable donation, and he's slightly proud, slightly ashamed.

Garland got screwed out of a Supreme Court seat, but that doesn't make him a good person. He's a big zilch. For all her abominable politics, even Liz Cheney can see and recognize wrong and speak out against it. Maybe she should be attorney general.
Muslim mosque: there are good people down south, but so many old-time racists and bigits and they run the chamber of commerce and they're the mayors and powers.
It's the truth and that's why CRT is DOA.
Doug Holland January 7, 2022 at 8:33 AM
It's a joke about Liz Cheney and I get it — insert guffaws — but I gotta add, she's fricking monstrous. I grow weary of hearing Democrats say how great it is that Liz Cheney doesn't want to overthrow the US government.
Cheney is wrong, reprehensible and cruel on every political issue, and even ten years ago she would've been considered the lunatic wing of the Republican Party.
Now, the entire Republican Party is their lunatic wing, and she'd fit in among them perfectly, except for one detail: She seems to honestly believe in elections and the peaceful transfer of power.
That's the very minimum to ask, and that's what Liz Cheney is — the bare minimum for political discourse. For that she deserves the bare minimum of respect, nothing more.
Frank January 7, 2022 at 10:20 AM
I have been lectured but it was a fine lecture, prof. Fair point.
Did you see this coverage and especially the photo https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/liz-dick-cheney-jan-6-republicans-b1988349.html (scroll down) of Cheney and her father as the only Republicans willing to show their masked faces at a memorial for the dead police from January 6? I agrree it is the bare minimum, but they were there.
Doug Holland January 7, 2022 at 1:31 PM
Great picture. It's a memorial for the cops killed defending the capitol, defending the Congresscritters and Senators, and exactly one Republican shows up to say thanks, and she brings her dad.
I am not a big fan of cops in general, but when cops die defending the US capitol from a marauding mob, you could at least say thanks.

No argument intended, but can you elaborate on "schmuck"? I had to look it up.
Captain Hampockets January 6, 2022 at 8:05 PM
"Schmuck" literally means "penis" in Yiddish. But it's ususlly used to mean "jerk," "moron," "dumbass," etc.
If it's a definition you seek, salute the Captain. If you're asking *why* Merrick Garland is a schmuck —
As AG he is the highest law enforcement official in America. Other high officials have broken a fuckton of laws. Garland should prosecute them, but won't. Thus, schmuck.

New Crime Stats Revealed: Homicides in Los Angeles Soared in 2021
The city recorded 397 murders last year, and LAPD also shot more people than in previous years
Jon Regardie
Mayor Eric Garcetti and Police Chief Michel Moore joined other city and LAPD representatives on Thursday to reveal 2021 city crime statistics, and to discuss policing strategies in the new year. Although they would detail Los Angeles experiencing its highest number of homicides in nearly 15 years, two recent incidents dominated the nearly 90-minute event in the courtyard of the LAPD's 77th Street station.
One was the death of Valentina Orellana Peralta, who was hit by a ricocheting bullet on Dec. 23 when police opened fire on a suspect, armed with a heavy bicycle lock, who had attacked victims in a Burlington store. The 14-year-old Chile native died in her mother's arms in a dressing room.
"Valentina should still be here with us," Garcetti pronounced shortly after he stepped to the podium.
The other incident was the shooting death, on Monday evening, of Fernando Arroyos, a 27-year-old LAPD officer working out of the Olympic Division. Arroyos, a three-year veteran of the force who graduated from U.C. Berkeley, was off-duty at the time. He and his girlfriend were looking at a house they hoped to buy in the Florence-Firestone neighborhood, just outside of city limits, when they were confronted by three men who tried to rob them. Moore and others discussed what they said was Arroyos' bright future.
"I remember him from his graduation" from the Police Academy, Garcetti stated.
The incidents put two different lenses on the gun violence that has rampaged across Los Angeles since the onset of the pandemic. The city last year experienced 397 murders, up 11.8 percent from the 355 the previous year, and a 53.9 percent increase from the 258 in the pre-pandemic year of 2019. It was the highest figure since the 395 killings in 2007.
The department also reported 1,459 victims shot in 2021. Two years before, 946 people were shot in the city.
LAPD personnel in 2021 also fired their weapons more than in the recent past. Activists have charged that police are too quick to draw their guns, particularly when confronting homeless individuals, the mentally ill or people of color.
Moore said that officers discharged their firearms 37 times last year, up from 27 instances the year before, and 20 in 2019. On Tuesday, he told the Los Angeles Police Commission that 18 people died last year in what the department terms "officer-involved shootings." That compares with seven people killed in these incidents in 2020.
The death of Orellana Peralta and other recent incidents have prompted the LAPD to re-examine its policies, training and tactics, in particular when confronting a suspect armed with a weapon other than a gun. Moore said that in 22 of the 37 OIS incidents last year, the suspect did not have a firearm.
A trio of investigations into the death of Orellana Peralta are underway, including one being conducted by the office of state Attorney General Rob Bonta. At Thursday's event, William Briggs, president of the Police Commission, said the panel will hear the results of another investigation, and ultimately will determine if police activity that day was in line with department policy.
Los Angeles is not an anomaly when it comes to the increase in homicides and gun violence, and cities across the country have seen murders and violent crime surge since the arrival of the coronavirus. Experts and law enforcements officials have attributed the increase to factors ranging from the economic downturn to a lack of gang intervention workers to tamp down retaliatory violence.
Chicago recorded 797 homicides in 2021, and there were 485 in New York City. Garcetti Thursday said that the homicide rate last year in cities such as Phoenix, Baltimore and Kansas City were all well above what Los Angeles endured.
"We see this tremendously relatively safe city in comparison," Garcetti said. "I say this not to minimize, but to contextualize."
Garcetti and Moore lamented a surge in crimes involving firearms, citing a proliferation of "ghost guns," which are often manufactured on 3D printers and lack serial numbers, and are impossible to trace. The LAPD's 2021 "Crime & Initiatives" report, also released Thursday, said that 8,861 illegal firearms were seized in the city last year, by far the most in at least a decade. That included 1,921 ghost guns; in 2020, the department recovered 833 ghost guns.
Moore said the department has been working with the FBI and the ATF to disrupt "four major operations" of gun manufacture and selling. He added that two 3D printers used to make gun parts were confiscated.
Despite the surge in gun violence, some other types of crime in the city have decreased. LAPD statistics show that the number of burglaries in 2021 was about 8 percent below the level in the previous year. Although robberies increased about 5 percent over 2020, they have fallen approximately 12 percent since 2019.
Other findings from the "Crime & Initiatives" report include:
Violent crime in the city increased 3.9 percent last year compared with 2020. However, the 30,078 violent crimes in Los Angeles last year is a 66.2 percent drop from the 88,919 in 1992.
Property crime rose 4.2 percent last year over 2020, but there were about 5,000 fewer incidents in 2021 than in 2019. Additionally, the 90,090 property crimes last year is a 63.9 percent decline from 249,612 in 1992.
The LAPD ended last year with 9,516 sworn officers. This is down from 9,804 in 2020, and 10,073 in 2019. The decrease was a result of budget constraints and a temporary pandemic hiring freeze.

A pair of earrings may be a small accessory, but they can elevate your look in an instant – the only problem is when your ears begin to have that putrid smell. So what gives?
According to Women's Health, the cause of putrid-smelling ear holes is the combination of skin cells and natural oils getting clogged inside the hole. Another possibility is that your ears may have an infection or they're just not clean enough.
1. Always clean your earrings.
2. Choose your jewellery with care.
While stud earrings are the usual kinds you see, it's recommended to use captive bead earrings since they are easier to clean. If you're not comfortable with them, you can take turns using studs and bead earrings to give your earholes some time to breathe.
3. Get piercings from authorized establishments.
If you're planning on having your ears pierced, let a professional do it and don't follow The Parent Trap. Experts use autoclaved needles to cut clean holes in your earlobes. These needles are sterilized so that there will be no transmission of any kind from one client to another.


We create opportunities for Credit Unions and Community Banks so that they can buy and sell First Mortgage Loans on a loan-by-loan basis.
Our mission is simple: help Credit Unions and Community Banks balance their portfolios according to their needs.
With the click of a mouse, Lenders can search loans based on LTV, Rate, Credit Score, Property Type, and Program. First Heritage Mortgage Match was created with the understanding that a specialized market could enhance collaboration which would result in increased loan volume; managerial optimization; and improved risk management practices.
We understand the importance of privacy and integrity. All communication is kept confidential until a partner decides to share the information with a potential match.
To diversify assets, generate interest income (at rates that are competitive with investments), and reduce excess liquidity, credit unions buy a percentage of a pool of loans offered by peers.
To increase liquidity and reduce the ratio of long-term loans in their portfolio, credit unions sell pools of loans to other credit unions.

Bella Hadid and Pharrell Williams Celebrate the Month of May in Style
What Bella Hadid and Pharrell Williams Wore to Their Parties
Bella Hadid, Pharrell Williams, and Nicki Minaj celebrated the start of the month of May in style, and while we were there, we were able to visit the homes of each designer.
The designers took us into their homes, and although they may have been dressed up to the nines in fancy gowns, the truth is, they were in their pajamas.
"We work the third shift, we live the first, and this is what we get to do," Nicki Minaj said.
In fact, the two designers worked the first and third shifts as a team, along with their wives, but their day jobs were entirely separate.
"We all got together—husband and wife—and we celebrated birthdays at the same time," she said. "Usually, we meet up. And we're kind of always together when we come home, so it's just easier."
Meanwhile, Bella Hadid and Pharrell Williams were dressing it up for a night.
"It's always different," she said. "Every day we have different plans. So it's exciting, it's fun."
Bella Hadid and Pharrell Williams take a break from their work together to hang out at the party in New York City.
The two designer-slaves were also celebrating by playing with their kids.
"I don't have a child, so I'm not going to be one of these moms who gets to go, 'My life is so great right now!'" Hadid said, teasing Pharrell.
The other ladies on the scene with Hadid were her husband, rapper Travi$ Scott, and her mother, Kim Kardashian.
The night was filled with the loud sound of music and the bright lights of the city, but that didn't stop Hadid from getting in a few snaps of her and Pharrell Williams' night together.
"The night has just gotten crazy, so we can't really focus on anything. So I just took a

Shampoos sometimes use harsh surfactants to cleanse the hair which leads to dry frizzy brittle hair. Conditioners have surfactants as well, but a lot less. That means they are much more gently than shampoos.
Gives that "second day hair" feel instantly.
Co washing makes hair softer and less prone to breakage.
Styling products work better with more moisturized hair.
If your hair is dry or it's curly or wavy (both of which tend to be naturally dry), chances are that you'll benefit from co-washing.
Who isn't Co-Washing Good for?
People with fine, straight hair, which could get weighed down. Those with an oily scalp or dermatitis should steer clear, too. "Co-washing alone doesn't effectively treat either condition," says Jeannette Graf, a New York City dermatologist. Stick with your regular shampoo-then-condition routine.
NOTE: After picking the conditioner that is going to work for your hair there are a few key simple steps you want to take and remember when co washing your hair. Remember the conditioner that you choose to co-wash with should have ingredients that are going to benefit your hair not harm it. Try to steer clear of conditioners that have silicones in them which will make it difficult to wash out of your hair because they are not water soluble. So what does that mean for you: resiude and build up! Yuck. Which would defeat the purpose in co-washing your hair in the first place.
Wet Your Hair: First wet your strands before applying your conditioner with warm water. Make sure it is saturated before applying the conditioner.
Conditioner Wash: I used SheaMoisture SuperFruit Complex 10-in-1 Renewal System Conditioner. "NB: There are co-wash conditioners specially made for cowashing which contains a little cleansing agent in them" use whichever works for you. The application process is different for different people depending on where their co-washing routine takes place. Your best bet in conditioner application is to apply the conditioner in your hair in small sections like I did, I sectioned my hair into 6 then applied section by section. This will also help to detangle the hair in the next few steps. Applying in sections also helps to make sure each strand has been saturated with the conditioner.
Detangle: After you have thoroughly applied the conditioner from root to tip throughout all of your strands you are going to want to start your detangling process. Gently Finger detangling.
Massage: Gently massage your scalp with finger tips to lift dirt, make sure you don't massage your hair to prevent knotting.
Rinse & Repeat (optional) The repeat part is optional.
Deep Condition: After rinsing out all of the conditioner, I dabbed my hair with an old T shirt to remove excess water, then I applied Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Mask in sections from tips to root, covered with a processing cap and then a heat cap! I left it in for 15 minutes, then rinsed out thoroughly.
Final Detangle: In sections I detangled with Sha Moisture Extra- Moisture Detangler.
All Done!! Quick and Easy, my hair feels moisturized, revived, and a whole lot softer.
It is still important to clarify your hair at least once a month with your clarification of choice whether it be shampoo, ACV or bentonite clay rinses.
Don't forget to subscribe to my BBM channelHERE for more Hair tips.
I so love your blog and your hair thanks for the Information.
Thanks for reading dear. Your welcome!
Co-washing is one hair thing I haven't tried. Maybe I should.
Thanks for the yarn tip too.
Awesome! Thanks! Questions please! First of all, do you comb your hair at all? You didn't mention except finger detangling. Then, do you use warm/hot water to rinse after washing and conditioning? And lastly, what do you apply to your hair during your PS because it doesn't look shrunken to me in that half bun picture of yours. Mine would have shrunken if I had spritz with LOC before taking out the two weaves.
– No I don't comb my hair.
– I use hot water (not too hot to burn hair or scalp) to wash, then use cold water to rinse after conditioning. To close hair cuticles.
– I spritz with little water and apply a leave in conditioner and oil as its braided! It shouldn't be dripping wet. So next day I unraveled and styled, it was not wet or dry, just moisturized.
Your hair is so incredible! You're definitely my go to for help on how to maintain my natural hair. You make it all so easy. Thank you for this!

I'm excited to be joining some of my talented friends in the Blogger Stylin' Home Tours hosted by the lovely Lindsey from The White Buffalo Styling Co. where the tour starts.
For those of you coming from my friend Jennifer's home, welcome! If you haven't had a chance to visit her beautiful home, please go HERE and tour her gorgeous home.
beautiful, lucy! love all the fresh greens and the touches of yellow. your dog cracks me up, too!
Very beautiful and cozy. I would love spending time in these rooms. Thank you for sharing with us.
Lucy, your home looks absolutely beautiful!!!
So pretty, cool and calming … what a beautiful home, Lucy. I'd love being there when it's 105 degrees where we are!
Looks like Pup doesn't know how large he/she is?!? Way too funny on that stack of woven fiber puffs! I love that you shared that pic with us!
Beautiful, Lucy! Your home is light and bright yet cozy, which is not always easy to achieve. I love the pops of green too!
Absolutely beautiful! So serene and refreshing!
You have an eye for unique and beautiful angles my dear. Love how cozy and warm it all looks. Also those rustic planks on your sofa/console table is so smart! Love the texture it adds! Also, Brodie is a show stealer!
You think so? you know me always doubting myself. Thank you so much Rach. The planks are just my lazy way to deal with not having made that table I've been wanting to do. I want to be like you and use big scary power tools, but I'm too chicken.
Love your decor. Looks so fresh and welcoming. Have a great day, Lucy.
Such a gorgeous home! Look at that happy puppy!!
New follower here! Wow, love your space so much! So inviting and just down right beautiful!!
This looks like it is straight out of a magazine!! Love it! Your pretty springtime color scheme is stunnnnning.
Your home is gorgeous and I love the rustic neutrals with pops of yellow, green and aqua. And that sweet pup on the stools is just adorable. Lovely tour!
I love your home. I am swooning over your couches, pillows, chairs, table, decor…. yeah um basically everything!!! Can I just pin all of it!!?? 😉 Loving it and loving that I found you.
I love the pops of yellow, so pretty, as always!
Thank you Dannyelle. Yellow is tricky, cause I love it one day and then don't want it the next but the next day I do…ack.haha.
Lucy, I am so in love! And I am right there with you! Just when I think I get it figured out, I change something up! Your use of yellow is perfect–not overdone, just the right amount which is so hard with yellow! I am obsessed with how comfortable yet beautiful your home is!
your home is beautiful. thanks for sharing the tour. BTW I think the link for The Chronicles of Home is broken. It is linking back to your site.
Great tour Lucy! I love the fresh springy hits of colour with all of your beautiful white! Your dog is adorable on those pouffs!
I love how bright and cheery your home is! So pretty.
Your home is beautiful! I love all the greenery and earthy touches!
What a wonderful blog. So glad I found it. Such gorgeous decor and lovely ideas.
I just came across your blog and let me just say – – wow. Your home is beautiful. It looks so light, fresh and inviting. I'm so happy I found your blog and will be checking back often.
Lucy, Love your home – so fresh and soothing. Very pretty. I have a question, the picture of the cow face in pastels on the wall in the picture above. Is it sold in your shop, I looked and cannot find it. I love the face and the colors.
The table that is behind your sofa (I believe you call it your sofa table) did you build that? If not, where can I find one like it? I love it!

Daniel Greenfield April 08, 2013
Modern politics is often fought on the battlefield of the 19 inch or the 50 inch screen with grim bursts of image artillery directed by experts and consultants. But for all the experts and consultants, it is the ability of the politician to communicate what he feels and believes is true that trumps everything else.
Margaret Thatcher's death has touched such a nerve because her passing takes place in the shadow of mediocrities like David Cameron who talk a great deal but say nothing at all, whose preferred form of communication is to avoid controversy. Likewise so many American conservatives turn to memories of Reagan because when they turn toward the marble mecca of D.C., all they see from their party are former conservatives scurrying to evolve into blithering idiots in time for the next election.
The missing element is conviction. When conservatives remember Thatcher and Reagan, they hear the echoes of clear and principled messages. Neither of them were perfect as politicians, but their rhetoric was perfect because they knew what they believed, said it clearly and colorfully and enjoyed themselves doing it.
Modern conservative parties eschew that kind of plain talk. They flee from principle selecting candidates who speak as indirectly as possible and mean as little of what they say as they can get away with. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. But no cause is advanced in the course of these evolutions from communication to obfuscation.
Conservatism never wins. It loses. It comes to be associated with slick empty men and women who smile a lot and lie a lot. And that in the long run is far more devastating than the occasional senate candidate who says something horrible or idiotic. Candidates like Mitt Romney are more damaging than a hundred Todd Akins because they fix the image of a soulless party that cares about nothing and no one.
It is better to have the public think that the Republican Party stands for horrible and divisive things than to think that it stands for nothing. There are people who will vote for horrible things... but who will vote for nothing except in opposition to the something that the other party is selling?
Conservatives bemoan that Obama, who blatantly said that he would raise energy prices, redistribute wealth, diminish national power and ram through a radical agenda, could be elected twice. And the wrong lesson that GOP leaders have taken away from that is that the country turned to the left and that they have to turn with it. The real lesson is that voters will choose a radical agenda over no agenda at all.
Obama clearly stood for something. Many of those things were lies and deceptions, others were horribly destructive, but they were there. What did McCain and Romney stand for? They stood for good governance which is an unexciting thing. It might have been enough in the past when a good work ethic, modesty and reputability were more admired than they are today. And even then candidates with an inability to communicate anything of significance would have suffered.
Today even Thatcher's ideological foes were forced to pay tribute to her. Will anyone pay tribute to David Cameron on his passing? Doubtful. He will be far less hated, but also far less loved because he will have done nothing to earn any extreme or feeling. Had Mitt Romney won and served for two terms, is there any conceivable possibility that he would have been remembered in the same breath as Ronald Reagan?
It's not a matter of the pivotal period. All periods are pivotal in their own way. Today's leaders face challenges every bit as stark as those that Reagan and Thatcher did. What they lack is the ability to transmute those challenges into transformative victories because there is no conviction behind their political aspirations.
Politics is a strategic battlefield, but it's also an ideological battlefield. Winning elections is not the same as winning the argument. And winning elections while losing the argument is not enough.
Many of the candidates from conservative parties are unable to understand the ideological argument or to take it seriously. To them politics is policy and policy is non-ideological. They run on the conservative side of the aisle because it's the more reasonable camp, but they don't understand the ideas that animate the other side. They don't understand that the battle is not over individual policies, but a clash of worldviews.
In the last election, Obama articulated the campaign as a clash of worldviews. Romney did not. To Romney, this was about policies and he is still hurt and baffled that the superior policies didn't win. But to Obama, this was about the big picture ideology and that was how he fought the campaign. Instead of choosing one of the primary candidates who understood that this was an ideological fight, the leadership favored the most electable candidate who proved to be unelectable because he did not understand the terms on which the fight was taking place.
Thatcher always understood it and articulated it. As did Reagan. They weren't mere creatures of politics and policy. They understood that the politics and the policy, the task of getting elected and getting things done, was taking place within the context of a larger struggle between worldviews. And they were animated by the conviction that one worldview was healthy and the other was toxic. Their great gift was to combine that with communications skills that allowed them to forthrightly express that struggle in a way that most people could understand and appreciate.
Modern conservative parties have far too much messaging and too little message. You hear a great deal about how responsible they are and very little about what they stand for. They have a great many strategists and very few thinkers. They are political machines that no one really likes, including their own voters. They have industrialized conservatism and mass produced conservative politics with no content.
Thatcher did not work overtime to try and seem reasonable the way that her successors do. Neither did Reagan. They did not present themselves as the sane choices, but the best choices. They could compromise but their images were uncompromising. They were not laboring to be the moderate alternatives to something else. Instead they became the model to which alternatives were presented. Most of all they gave everyone within the sound of their voice the sense that they knew what they were doing and that they wanted to begin doing it as soon as possible.
Winning the argument is hard, but the most important ingredient is conviction. Politics flows in tides that ebb and churn. The unshakable position of yesterday becomes the controversial one of tomorrow. There is no politically secure territory. Only territory that can be won and lost by the politics of the next day. The short term politics of the poll may win some elections, but it has no long term future. The movement that sets its agenda by the polls has no ideology. Its leaders are mercenaries who will believe and do anything if their consultants tell them to. Only the movement that has convictions can win long term victories.
All this can seem abstract, but it comes down to plain human needs and feelings. Most people vote for what they think is a good life. And they vote for leaders who care about them and will keep life good for them and their children. There are any combination of policies that can cover that ground and it is the candidate who can convincingly make the case for the good life who stands the best chance of winning in the short term and the long term as well.
Thatcher and Reagan convinced millions that they were fighting for the good life. And they delivered. The damning sin that the left cannot forgive them for is that their policies, at home and abroad, succeeded more often than they failed. But they didn't convince with mere empty words, with the same tired slogans that stood for nothing and opposed nothing and advocated nothing. They did not skulk in on the heels of consultants who made them seem as nonthreatening as possible. Instead they made it clear that they were here to fight against the forces of decay, the ideologies of terror and the sense of mortality that comes to every great nation in the hour of its decline.
Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan are dead now, but in life they won a victory over the seeming deaths of their nations. They came in the hour of twilight and they stepped down with the sunrise. Their victories were temporary but they showed that leaders can stand against decline and breathe new life when most of the experts believe that all is lost and that we must learn to accept that. They showed us that with conviction and courage we can resist the inevitable.

Just wonderful, and she was a great leader.
IgorR 9/4/13
Donald Trump, who in my opinion is not a particularly good person and and even worse conservative, and a buffoon to boot, catapulted to become a real contender for the Republican nomination simply by vigorously and relentlessly attacking Obama. Can it be a simple oversight that we've had Bob Dole, George Bush, John McCain, and Mitt Romney as the best the establishment could come up with? I refuse to believe that they are that stupid. For whatever reason any Republican candidate that's given a pass by the establishment either already comes in castrated or is subjected to the procedure before being given the nod. They even managed to do so to Sarah Palin just as soon as she gave McCain some semblance of a fighting chance for a brief moment, in spite of this seemingly being an anatomical and temperamental impossibility.
There are many theories. Some say the establishment consultants don't like to rock the boat because their goal is to feed off the system not to endanger it or their own good standing with it. Some say that the two party system is a cheap parlor trick, that both parties are controlled by the same people who create the illusion of choice by running two candidates who are only mildly different, and perhaps even know in advance whether they need to take the fall. I don't profess to know. What I refuse to accept is that they are simply unable to learn from the failures of their own candidates and Reagan's and Thatcher's successes.
Of course passion sells. Rand Paul was able to inspire three quarters of the conservative movement by advocating a position to the left of Obama, but in a passionate, confrontational way. Passion is such a powerful weapon that you could probably elect some sort of a modern Hitler if he just attacked Obama with relentless passion and spoke about the coming resurgence of America. And yet they run Romneys and McCains. Figuring out why they don't really want to win or what serious institutional constraints prevent them from playing for keeps like the left does is in my opinion a pre-condition for victory.

An alternate title of this essay could be "The Hedgehog and the Fox," which may be a more accurate way of describing the difference between Thatcher and Cameron than ideological and non-ideological.
Daniel Greenfield 9/4/13
finding candidates who are passionate, understanding the issues and are good communicators is not at all easy. There aren't too many people who fit that bill.
Trump could do what he did because he had the media experience. He was missing a bunch of things, but he could take over interviews and press his case. Very few pols can do it that well.
Romney ran the campaign like a business meeting. He made his pitch, instead of fighting.
In passing it is worth noting that Margaret Thatcher faced a strong campaign of industrial and social disruption organized by KGB operatives in communist front organizations such as the extreme left faction of the labor party, the ISWP, the miners union and the Trades Union Congresses, particularly in Scotland. she defeated these elements by restoring choice and championing freedom.
Here in the US the Republican Party faces a similar onslaught from the left that is being conducted through the media, academia and government bureaucracies. However the RP shows no sign of standing up to what has become the assumption of the superiority of collectivism, instead it goes along with, and actually engages in, the implementation of collectivist policies such as affirmative action, taxation policy used for social ends, confiscation and redistribution of private wealth and never ending assaults on private property and persons. They do this mostly for the single despicable reason that to do otherwise would damage their careers.
Where is our Margaret Thatcher? Sarah Palin may have been a good start but she was destroyed by DP party activists and the media, without any defense or counterattack being put up by the RP.
What is certain is that US decline will continue until policies promoting freedom, individual liberty and responsibility, private property and free choice are put in place.

I think the problem is that it has become more attractive to be a writer or pundit than run for office, so the majority of articulate, passionate, fighters end up writing articles when they clearly should be running our country.
Greenfield 2016!!!
"blithering idiots", I love it, I love to hear the roar of Mr. Greenfield's verbal sixteen inch guns, tell it like is.
There's a sense of satisfaction to be had by shining a bright light upon the evil illogic of Obama and crew,
and upon the mostly feeble, bumbling resistance being put up by our current bunch of "so called" leaders.
Thank you for this Mr Greenfield. We conservatives are at a turning point and we need this kind of perspective and clarity to press on.
Daniel, I understand. But let's take the current situation, specifically Ted Cruz. From my perspective, he has only one problem: he wasn't born in the United States. I don't consider that a real problem in his case since he is undoubtedly a natural born citizen anyway because of his mother and her age at the time of his birth, but even though this circumstance is a distraction, it's not relevant for the purposes of this discussion because I don't think the establishment is concerned about it in particular.
He's got everything that the establishment could dream of: he is partially Hispanic, and while not the most handsome candidate ever he is presentable. Unassailable educational credentials, clearly intelligent, knows how to speak, and although not a firebrand by nature, displays passion and media savvy. I like him because he hasn't betrayed any major conservative principles yet although there is still time. He could speak out more passionately against Amnesty, and he does to some degree but I understand why he can't just go out and denounce Paul and Rubio.
The main reason why I bring him up is that the establishment isn't lining up behind him in any noticeable fashion, nor do I expect them to. He could possibly save them, but they don't want to be saved by someone like him. They never liked Reagan either. For a number of reasons, some that I understand and others I do not they want safe candidates. This needs to be understood better in order to fight them effectively. Some "extreme" conservatives have been complaining about the establishment forever and yet McCains and Romneys still win the popular vote during the nominating process.
Cruz has gotten pretty popular pretty fast considering he only became a senator a few months ago.
He's gotten some choice spots in the Senate and he's clearly being promoted by the establishment to some degree, but whether they're serious about really moving him forward or whether they just want him there for diversity is another question.
But overall the establishment is a business arrangement, on both sides. It's about moving money and doing favors. The people that the establishment trusts are the ones who accept the rules of the game and won't shake the boat.
For a non-member of the cabal to win, what has unfortunately become necessary is being good at media stunts. He or she also has to go into the process with just enough credibility not to be immediately and successfully ridiculed. A person like that can create enough positive name recognition but they have to know what they are doing in order not to eventually be turned into Saturday Night Live fodder. They also have to have a pretty clean personal record to keep Gloria Allred etc. at bay.
I understand that there are very few people like that who could also intelligently articulate conservative principles, and even fewer who are not allied with financial supporters who are only partially conservative and will assert their influence to hamstring the candidate on this or that issue. It was distasteful and disappointing to see Scott Walker, who is a good man, to stumble on Amnesty, but he is no longer acceptable because of that. There is a perverse natural selection whereby to get to be someone truly credible, like a governor, you have to be at least somewhat acceptable to some non-conservative donors. Sooner or later some rich, truly conservative people will figure out that they need to buy large mainstream media companies, and I think the Koch brothers already have. In any case, the key problem to be solved is positive, credible name recognition while being a true conservative and without too many owed favors to some influential fake conservatives.
"Most people vote for what they think is a good life. And they vote for leaders who care about them and will keep life good for them and their children."
More precisely, lacking both the belief in their innate ability to provide that good life for themselves and their children and trust in the future of the nation at large, most people vote for that individual who will promise some level of forward security, even if those promises are empty and the methods by which they will be secured are destructive. Some hope is better than no hope.
There are two requirements that we lack these days, and they are so intertwined that it's difficult to tell the cause from the effect:
1) A pool of articulate, principled visionary leaders willing to lead the world with conservative principles.
2) A polity that can identify, understand, and support principled, visionary leaders willing to lead the world with conservative principles.
Politicians, generally speaking, are the dog, and we are Pavlov.
Obama is the bell.
This is reasoning at its best. Simple, unpretentious, understandable, and so desperately needed. Conservatives must get over Marco Rubio, ineligible as he is, which should be paramount, but strangely is not. Thank you Daniel.
We are in such dire straights. Even in the House which controls spending, we have R's who are too scared of not being re-elected to do what is required and stand up on their hind legs. Even Ryan, he of the plan to balance the budget IN TEN YEARS. What nonsense.
Chana @ Lemon Lime Moon 9/4/13
The President is a community organizer and so he knows how to gather support and change minds. He has a good education in Alinsky's methods as well and he used them to advantage with little to no opposition from most.
You often have to fight fire with fire creating a back-fire.
As Shakespeare said "Be stirring as the time; be fire with fire;
Threaten the threatener and outface the brow
Of bragging horror "
The BBC is now doing its utmost to destroy Margaret Thatcher's image to a new generation.
What the BBC does tell you is that Britain was in a mess when Margaret Thatcher came to power. Under Labour, Britain was the laughing stock of the world, "the sick man of Europe", destitute and having to go cap in hand to the IMF. This for a nation that was once a manufacturing and global superpower.
The nation was in a ruinous cycle, heading to third word status, lead by a bunch of crypro-communists. It was not possible to see how that fate could be avoided. Yet this one woman turned a whole nation around. Margaret Thatcher provided an impetus to the nation that not only stopped the decline, but rejuvenated Britain's stature in the world. Her task was of Herculean proportions, and she succeeded. It could never have been achieved by concensus, but only with fortitude and courage in the face of entrenched leftists in Labour, Unions, BBC, and even her own party.
She is being accused of being Divisive? Cant be done any other way.

"Conservatism . . . comes to be associated with slick empty men and women who smile a lot and lie a lot . . . Candidates like Mitt Romney . . . "
The general thesis of your post was great. Can you not defend it without resort to such "progressive" disdain for things such as honor and truth and respect?
I mean, seriously - Romney was a smiling liar?
Go fuck yourself.
Romney was / is a weasel in a suit. Maybe he is a great manager, but they are a dime a dozen.
Rommey was not and is not a leader rhat could inspire anyone.
He wanted to become involved in Syria? For what? And I'm to vote for a man that will send my son to fight for muslim degenerates who will overthrow a muslim dictator?
Lead the charge yourself.
The man didn't have the balls to stand up for his own dignity and that is supposed to inspire us? You're nothing but an ideologue without an thought that is your own.
Go hide under a rock where you belong.

Bobby, your editing skill could land you a job at NBC News. No one called Romney a smiling liar.
Your ellipse deletes the transition sentence that progresses from the smiling liars of the conviction-challenged, MSM-cowed GOP "Establishment" to the kind of candidates they predictably anoint: impeccably respectable - even genuinely decent (e.g.,Mitt Romney) - men with admirable resumes, "no surprises" team-players who'll obey the first law of Republican presidential campaigning: say nothing that could possibly give offense to anyone.
CJinPA 11/4/13
Reagan campaigned for ideas long before he campaigned for a political party. That had a huge impact on how he was received: He really, really believed what he was saying.
He spent a decade giving speeches, written by hand on yellow legal pads, before running for office.
And he was a Democrat who chose to become a Republican. I made the same journey. I developed a worldview FIRST, and then chose the party that most represented it. Becoming a Republican was a conscious decision. Because of that, I think I can communicate non-liberal ideas better than my lifelong Republican friends. (No, I don't think I'm special. I'm actually kind of a moron.)
Reagan knew what he believed, and his various political positions sprung from those few core beliefs. He didn't try to fashion a unique stance for each issue. There was a common thread that ran through them all. Say what you will about Obama (and most Democrats) they do the same. (Their core belief is: We hate what America was; we don't like what it is; but it's saving grace is that it can be turned into something different.)
With the opinion-shaping machinery controlled by the Left (news media, entertainment media, and academia) Republicans will always face an uphill battle in winning the competition of ideas (the refs are pulling for the other side.) Which means more than ever that we have to show conviction and be consistent to break through the din. Excellent post Mr. Greenfield.

Are they multi tags just for holding something to display when they don't work?
