RICHARD MULLEN was born in the United States where he took two university degrees and then came to Oxford in 1969 to study for a doctorate in modern history. He afterwards taught British and American history, modern politics and Victorian literature in the Universities of Oxford and London. His first published work was a scholarly edition of the nineteen volumes of The Pamphleteer, the single most important collection of early nineteenth century pamphlets. It was this work that expanded his expertise in nineteenth century politics to include social, religious and literary history.
In 1981 he began writing documentary features for Radio Three and Radio Four, mainly on historical and literary figures of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. These programmes, some fifty in number, taught him how to present the past to contemporary audiences outside the academic community. Because of this work he was asked to be the historical adviser and commentator to the American networks, ABC and CBS, for the Royal Wedding in 1981.
His next biography, Anthony Trollope: A Victorian in His World (Duckworth, 1991) received the Yorkshire Post's Book of the Year Award in the year of publication and was on The Sunday Times' Best Seller List. It was the first complete biography of Trollope published in England and was based on ten years' work. It was widely reviewed and praised.
Richard Mullen has written articles and reviews for: The Times, The Daily Telegraph, The Yorkshire Post, History Today, Radio Times, Catholic Herald, The Economist, Country Life, Orient Express, The Listener, The Irish Times, and Illustrated London News.
In 1991 Richard Mullen was appointed editor of Contemporary Review, the monthly journal of international affairs founded in 1886, for which he has also reviewed for twenty years. He is now working with James Munson on a book on Victorian travel to Europe and is in the process of applying for British naturalisation.


Art and Alcohol – two of my favourite things!
Some of the major art galleries, on launch night, offer wine and nibbles. That's very nice indeed. However, that's on one night only. Sometimes you can't beat a nice, cold, crafty one whilst you peruse the artwork. So we got to thinking, where can we drink and enjoy art?
Here is a list of some the awesome places in Greater Manchester where you can combine the two – art and alcohol. And if you know off any other places, add a comment and we'll add it to the list!
We love Common. Decent beers, decent venue, decent atmosphere. Common Bar hosts loads of events, including markets and workshops. They also host art exhibitions too so we're happy! Currently on is an exhibition named 'Zig Zag' by artist Atelier Bebop – till October.
Electrik have an impressive selection of craft beers and ales on draught. Team that with a secluded, secret beer garden, as well as a terrace out the front, it's a pretty decent place to be. Plus, May see's the launch of 'Medicine is Magic' by collage artist Solar.
Opened in 2015, All the Shapes invites you to a relaxing place to hangout and chill, whilst you enjoy food, wine, coffee and craft beer! They say 'our repertoire expands beyond this to curate a rolling arts programme…' They recently held 'IN ONE ROOM', a group exhibition of art prints by 10 different artists.
The Creameries is a place for everyone – whether you are meeting friends, having a meal with family, looking for somewhere to relax and work and there's a dedicated children's area too, which also hold craft workshops. 'Pictures in need of a Soundtrack' was a recent exhibition held there by photographer Not Quite Light.
Don't be deceived by the name. Yes Leaf do offer a lot of lovely tea's, but they also serve alcohol, and stay open late when hosting events! Leaf is one of my favourite places to go for a lovely lunch, it's decorated with amazing wallpaper and fairy lights! They have a downstairs area which hosts workshops and exhibitions, including the Charity Art Fair, The Get Together, and Craft Manchester.
It ain't always easy to find a good pub in the city centre, it's even harder to find a decent one with a beer garden and open space! Say hello to Pilcrow Pub! They have a fantastic mix of modern & seasonal beers, plus sandwiches, pastries, and baked goods. All this, and they host regular exhibitions and events, including recent exhibition by illustrator Adam Menzie, and jewellery workshop with Alijah Hussain.
If you know of any other places that host exhibitions, let us know about them! Drop us a message in the comments of on our Contact page.

HONOLULU (KHON2) -- Although mostly dry conditions will continue into the weekend, a few showers near and along a diminishing front will remain possible around Kauai through the day Saturday.
Rainfall chances will quickly rise through the day Sunday as the winds shift out of the south to southwest ahead of a stronger cold front approaching. This front will quickly advance down the island chain Sunday night, then stall around the Big Island Monday through Tuesday.

Both big-box stores and smaller retailers will need to limit their capacity to 30%. If the maximum capacity of a store is under 50, however, they will need to calculate how many people can be inside based on its size.

Egypt investigates New York Times report on alleged Jerusalem intelligence leak
FILE PHOTO: A taxi passes by in front of The New York Times head office in New York, February 7, 2013. REUTERS/Carlo Allegri/File Photo
Egypt's Prosecutor General Nabil Sadiq ordered an investigation into the New York Times report on Egypt claiming that Egyptian leaders accepted the decision by US President Donald Trump to proclaim Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and subsequently sought to influence public opinion into supporting the move using talkshow hosts.
The Supreme State Security Prosecution, under the supervision of Khaled Diaa, initiated the investigation, after Egypt's State Information Service (SIS) denied the veracity of the report on Saturday, saying it contained news that would harm security and public peace and interest.
The report, published on Saturday 6 January, entitled 'Tapes Reveal Egyptian Leaders' Tacit Acceptance of Jerusalem Move', and written by David Kirkpatrick – who is the Times' international correspondent, based in London – claimed to have obtained four audio recordings of an Egyptian intelligence officer talking to the hosts of several talkshows in Egypt.
The article alleged that intelligence officer, Ashraf al-Kholi, told the hosts that they mustn't condemn the decision, but instead should persuade their viewers to accept it.
The SIS said in a statement that the Times' article claims that Kholi is an officer with the Egyptian General Intelligence without presenting its readers with the slightest evidence of the truth of this information, or even evidence that this person exists.
It added that Mofid Fawzy, one of the Times' named 'talkshow hosts', is a journalist who stopped presenting television shows years ago.
The SIS also revealed that Saeed Hassaseen, another named host, ended his talkshow weeks before the Jerusalem move, and does not currently present any show.
The SIS reported that Hassaseen denied receiving a call on Jerusalem, and affirmed that he does not know anyone named Ashraf al-Kholi.
Meanwhile, another accused 'host' named in the article is prominent movie star, Yousra.
Yousra, however, has no relation whatsoever to presenting television talkshows, working instead in the movie industry as an actress, a fact Kirkpatrick should have been aware of, given his lengthily stay in Egypt, added the SIS statement.
It said that Yousra also denied knowing anyone by the name Ashraf al-Kholi, and denied discussing the issue of Jerusalem with anyone. She emphasized that she has not expressed views on political issues to any media outlet, as well as revealing that she was not present in Egypt during the period specified in the article.
She further announced that she will be seeking legal action against the New York Times for bringing her name into false allegations, as it is damaging to her career and reputation as an Arab actress.
Azmi Megahed, the fourth name in the Times report, also denied knowing a man by the name of Ashraf al-Kholi.
It is inappropriate for The New York Times, a reputable and influential newspaper, to publish such allegations, SIS said.
Egypt's positions on international issues are not derived from alleged leaks from anonymous sources, the SIS statement said. It added that Egypt's positions are conveyed by the President, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and in official state statements.
All of the entities in charge have expressed, in word and deed, their absolute position on Jerusalem in the United Nations and other international organizations.
They have expressed a disregard for US threats at the United Nation, threatening to cut aid to recipients, including Egypt, over their Jerusalem vote at the UN, the statement added.

The Salonika Incident was a major diplomatic incident that broke out on 6 May 1876 after a mob murdered the consuls of France and German Empire in the Ottoman city of Salonica, Jules Moulin and Henry Abbott. After young Orthodox Christian woman of Bulgarian origin attempted to convert to Islam to marry a Turk against the will of her family, she was detained by the US Consul at Thessaloniki. An enraged mob attempted to retrieve the woman, and murdered Moulin and Abbott when it failed to find her. A diplomatic backlash ensued, leading to displays of force and to reforms in the Ottoman Empire.

Background
In the 1820s, a number of incidents leading to the death of Christians occurred in the Ottoman Empire, notably the Constantinople massacre of 1821, marking the European opinion. The exactions of the bashi-bazouk compounded this sentiment in the following decades. On 15 June 1858, rioting in Jeddah, believed to have been instigated by a former police chief in reaction to British policy in the Red Sea, led to the massacre of 25 Christians, including the British and French consuls, members of their families, and wealthy Greek merchants, yielding a two-day retaliation bombardment from the British frigate HMS Cyclops. The declining Ottoman Empire was also relying more and more on European investment and loans even for daily expenditure, which the European public opinion resented as it was perceived that the funds were squandered in inefficient projects and in corruption, contributing to the poor image of the Empire. Finally, the Sublime Porte was entering a period of such political instability that 1876 would become known as the "Year of Three Sultans".

At that time, a Bulgarian notable, Pericles Hajji Lazzaro, acted as US Consul in Thessaloniki (Salonika). The German consul in Thessaloniki was Sir Henry Abbott, a British subject of Orthodox Christian faith. His brothers were George Abbott and Alfred Abbott. The French consul was Jules Moulin. Jules Moulin had married Henry Abbott's sister, and they were thus all tied by familial links.

On 3 May 1876, a 16-year-old girl named Stephana, was abducted by several women. Stephana, from Bogdanci, near Gevgelija, was of Bulgarian and Christian heritage, but probably had a muslim lover against the will of her family. Stephana associated with a neighbouring Turkish and Muslim family, which took her in their home and proposed to bring her to Thessaloniki in order to complete administrative paperwork that would officially enact her conversion to Islam. To do so, Ottoman law required the convert to appear before a local council and testify that they were embracing Islam freely, as a sane adult and without coercion. The Turks gave Stephana a traditional attire, comprising a full coat and a veil, and brought her to Gevgelija where she would take the train to Thessaloniki. When the train stopped at Karasuli, Stephana's mother Maria was there and recognised her daughter, whom she tried to convince not to follow through with her conversion to Islam.

The train arrived at Thessaloniki in the morning of 5 May. As Stephana asked policemen to escort her to the governor's residence, her mother called for help from Christian bystanders; as the day was an Orthodox holiday, a 150-strong group of Christians happened to be at the station, including George Abbott, and they attacked Stephana's companions. They seized her, removed her traditional Turkish clothes, put her in a carriage and took her to Hajji Lazzaro's residence.

On the next day, a mob gathered to demand that the Consul hand over Stephana to them.

Incident
In the morning of 6 May, a crowd started assembling in front of the Governor's residence. As rumours ran wild, people grew restless, prompting the Chief of Police, Colonel Salim Bey, to call for the crowd to calm down and disperse. The authorities attempted bring calm by claiming that Stephana would be freed shortly, but as the hours passed and the Governor remained empty-handed, the crowd turned into an angry mob, with calls for marching on the US Consulate and free Stephana by force.

Around 15:00 on 6 May, the consuls of France and Germany, Abbott and Moulin, learned of the commotion in the city. They decided to go to the governor, Mehmed Refet Pasha, either to further negotiate about the conversion of Stephana or to assess the situation on the ground. Abbott and Moulin found themselves surrounded by the mob, and taken to a building adjacent to a mosque, where they found a precarious refuge from the crowd, and the very relative protection of a handful of policemen. Abbott then wrote a letter to Hajji Lazzaro, urging him to release Stephana immediately, but the mob stopped the messenger and destroyed the letter. Seeing that the letter was ineffectual and that the authorities had no assistance forthcoming either from the artillerymen of the citadel or from the marines of the ironclad Iclaliye at anchor in the harbour, Abbott wrote a second message to his brother.

Meanwhile, the British Consul, J.E.  Blunt, learning of the ongoing incident, sent a message of his own to Abbott's brothers, and rushed to the scene of the incident. There, witnessing the severity of the situation, he write another message to Hajji Lazzaro, also urging him to lead Stephana to the mosque.

After three quarters on an hour, the mob started breaking into the room where the consuls where surrounded, by dislodging the iron bars that protected the windows. The crowd invaded the building, broke into the room and lynched Abbott and Moulin with these very iron bars, in front of Mehmed Refet Pasha, Salim Bey and a few policemen, who were helpless in protecting the consuls. The corpses were further mutilated after the two men were killed.

Soon afterwards, policemen arrived, escorting Stephana. When the rioters confirmed her identity, the crowd dispersed. The mob thus ceased to threaten the Christian quarters of the city, and allowed the Pasha to extend his protection to Hajji Lazzaro. Blunt telegraphed the news of the incident and of the murders to the British embassy in Constantinople and, warning that the local authorities did not have the necessary forces to maintain order, requested the protection of the Royal Navy.

Aftermath
The governments of Europe instrumentalised the incident to embarrass the Ottoman Empire, issuing an ultimatum demanding improvements in the security of foreigners, as well as harsh and swift punishment for those responsible. Warships deployed in the Mediterranean as a show of force to back the demands.

By 14 May, the port of Thessaloniki harboured the Ottoman warships Edirne, Iclaliye, Selimiye, Sahir and Muhbîr-i Surure; the Greek  and Vasilefs Georgios; the French Gladiateur and Châteaurenault; the British HMS Bittern and Swiftsure; the Russian Ascold; and the Italian , and well as another Italian gunboat.

The Sultan replaced Refat Pasha with Sherif Pasha as governor, and sent troops in to maintain order. They arrested 50 people, of whom six were publicly executed without a trial. Several public officers were demoted and some were sentenced to hard labour. The Ottoman Empire furthermore paid 40 000 English pound compensations to the families of the victims.

Apple restricted Facebook updates and here's why?
Haseeb Ch September 1, 2020
Facebook told Reuters that Apple had stopped reminding users. This proposed new feature will allow Apple to receive up to 30% of app transactions. Apple claims that the update breaks a provision in the App Store, which requires developers not to provide users with "irrelevant" content.
According to an update, iPad and iPhone makers have cited Apple Developer Software View, which prevents developers from providing unnecessary user details, although Facebook claims that the purpose of the post was designed. Has gone Promoting transparency. It has also revealed the details of the launch and even shipping of the next iPad and Apple Watch along with the iPhone 12 series. According to him, Apple will hold iPhone 12 and 12 Pro events from October 12 to week 42. In addition, Apple will reopen pre-orders for iPhone 12 (non-Pro) models this week and begin the next shipping. Starting Saturday, October 19. The iPhone 12 Pro is expected to launch sometime in November.
He also revealed the launch date of the cheap iPad 10.2 and Apple Watch Series 6. According to him, both the devices will be launched in the week starting September 7. They also claim that Apple will launch both devices in a press release. There will be no program to launch them. On the other hand, the company will launch the iPhone 12 series in one program. Although I do not know what he will do after leaving the post. Apple has not yet commented on the incident.
Facebook claim
Facebook claims that Apple has been asked to cancel all charges so all the money will go to the event organizers, but Apple has denied this. Functionality is now available, but without Apple's 30% break.
Why Apple refused
Apple's longest-running lead store is urging iPhone makers to cut all sales of these apps by 30 percent. When Apple was approached by Facebook to drop all charges in order to transfer money to business owners on all matters, Apple allegedly refused.
The new features under discussion are aimed at influential and high profile Facebook users. And it's also a new way to monetize your live online program through direct access. Which is collected when guests register to attend. "
It's not yet clear how Facebook will actually go about doing this, so it's no surprise that Apple shut down the note. Apple has tightened its grip on application store rules, such as Netflix, Kindle and Spotify. You can pay a very low price for it.

Market falls prune UK millionaires
By System Administrator	 7th February 2002 12:00 am
The number of millionaires in the UK fell last year as the stockmarkets tumbled.
A new report by Data-monitor shows the number of people with more than £1m in liquid assets was down by 1.4 per cent in 2001 at 68,700, from 69,600 in 2000.
High-net-worth individuals who had earned their wealth, as opposed to those who inherited it, were hardest hit, but millionaires were much less hard hit than people in the £100,000 to £250,000 asset band as the latter were most exposed to the technology sector.
The research predicts a rise in Muslim millionaires, with 5,400 high-net-worth Muslims with liquid assets of £3.6bn.
It also foresees an increase in the number of Sharia-compliant investment products.
Datamonitor reckons the number of UK millionaires will exceed 100,000 by 2006.
It also shows offshore tax havens are declining in importance for UK high-net-worth individuals, as money-laundering legislation makes them less attractive, with onshore wealth managers picking up the business.
Datamonitor global wealth analyst Nicholas Stephens says: "The market for Islamic Sharia-compliant equity and mortgage products in the UK is set to grow hugely.
"Muslims have historically been underserved by UK financial institutions but this is set to change."

In radio, we tend to say things we really don't mean in order to fire up the listeners. Usually, the phone lines will light up and people just start flinging their venom. And that's what I did with yesterday's blog entry. I had no idea that my friend Christine would call me up during the season finale of The Closer to tell me how asinine it was. I also didn't expect Kristina to fire an email at my head to tell me how stupid I was and how she had misjudged me.
All I wanted to do was stir things up a bit since it had been so long since I had written a blog. I thought folks would post comments and point out to their friends my brainless blog entry… Oh well… I tried and it didn't work.
So with the advice from Christine and Kristina… I will stick with what I really believe and leave the dumb fun to Chris Kelly.
Remember the entry where I wrote about my left leg tingling from the knee down?
Well… I thought it was a nerve problem and while at work one day I dropped to one knee to write something on the promotions board. Immediately I felt white hot burning pain! It had to be connected to that previous problem and it had to be a nerve deal. Jeez!
I've also been having a tingling left shoulder blade since that tingling leg incident. For no reason at all, my shoulder will just start tingling. And the weird thing is that I like that. It feels kind of good. I think that it has something to do with the self-diagnosed nerve problem.
My eyes are going too. I can't read things in low light anymore and I have to hold everything away from my face. I'm just a few steps away from getting those glasses hanging around my neck like the librarians of the old days.
I'm starting to feel like an old Checker Cab… Big and roomy with hard to find parts going bad.
There's something I don't understand about all this aging stuff… Why am I still getting pimples and other skin eruptions?
I have one of the most active T-zones in the world! Oh sure… I still look much younger than my 41 years, but I'm tired of pimples!
When I picked up some beer for my (sometimes angry) friend Christine's birthday party on September 1st… I was carded. The cashier thought I was actually in my upper 20's!
Man, she lost it. She couldn't believe what happened to her and she managed to form a small complex over it. Anytime someone would card me, she would roll her eyes and huff loudly. Being 9 years older than her made me seem ancient. That and watching Hawaii Five-O during their first runs.
Damn… I am getting old.
Hie thee to the doctor and have your back/neck checked out. That tingle and numbness could be a signe of a disc that has decided to move around or bulge a bit. There are lots of non-surgical solutions, so don't be afraid to go and have that checked out.
Now you'll have to excuse me, because I feel the sudden urge to go and listen to some Robert Plant.

Oxford-based Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine Issues Report: HPV Vaccine Review Loaded With Omissions, Errors
July 27, 2018 (updated May 31, 2020) Published by Lee Floyd
(Infowars) In May 2018, Cochrane, the research organization that bills itself as the "international gold standard for high quality, trusted information," released a flattering review of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines.
The Cochrane review methodology involves pulling together data from clinical trials and reviewing the assembled evidence in what is supposed to be a standardized, systematic and neutral manner.
In June, we reported that Cochrane's sources of funding—agencies and foundations that are unwilling to brook any questions about vaccine safety—raise reasonable doubts about Cochrane's conflicts of interest and ability to remain independent from its funders' agendas. Now, researchers affiliated with one of Cochrane's regional member centers (the Nordic Cochrane Centre) and with the Oxford-based Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) have come out with an exhaustive critique of Cochrane's HPV review, published in BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine.
Not mincing their words, the authors state, "We believe that the Cochrane [HPV vaccine] review does not meet the standards for Cochrane reviews or the needs of the citizens or healthcare providers that consult Cochrane reviews to make 'Informed decisions,' which…is part of Cochrane's motto" [emphasis added].
The Nordic Cochrane Centre and OCEBM authors dress down Cochrane's review on seven counts:
The Cochrane review missed nearly half of the eligible trials.
No included trial in the Cochrane review used a placebo comparator.
The included HPV vaccine trials used composite surrogate outcomes for cervical cancer.
The Cochrane review incompletely assessed serious and systemic adverse events.
The Cochrane review did not assess HPV vaccine-related safety signals.
The review ignored industry trial funding and other conflicts of interest.
Cochrane's public relations of the review were uncritical.
For example, using the Cochrane review's own inclusion criteria, 42 clinical trials (involving 121,704 randomized participants) were eligible to be included in the HPV vaccine review, but the reviewers only included 26 trials (with 73,428 participants). One of the studies that they "inappropriately excluded" was a trial of Gardasil-9—the newest HPV vaccine that includes nine types of HPV rather than the four or two in Gardasil and Cervarix—even though many countries are now shifting to Gardasil-9. Because the nine-strain Gardasil-9 contains more than twice the amount of neurotoxic aluminum adjuvant as Gardasil, assessments of its safety are vital.
The BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine authors make several important points about biases in the vaccine manufacturers' design of the original HPV vaccine trials—factors that the Cochrane reviewers overlooked or discounted. One of the most significant observations is that "all 26 trials included in the Cochrane review used active comparators"—either various aluminum adjuvants or hepatitis vaccines—rather than genuine inert placebos. The Nordic and OCEBM authors also note that the Cochrane reviewers "mistakenly used the term placebo to describe the active comparators," that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers adjuvants to be "unreliable comparators," and that the Cochrane reviewers' only comment about this key clinical trial design flaw was one brief statement slipped in "after 7500 words about other issues." Nor did the Cochrane reviewers address the most important downside of using active comparators:
"The use of active comparators probably increased the occurrence of harms in the comparator groups and thereby masked harms caused by the HPV vaccines."
The Nordic and OCEBM authors make many other solid arguments about the Cochrane reviewers' omissions and errors, including the reviewers' inexplicable characterization of the higher death rate in the HPV group as "a chance occurrence." They also note that the Cochrane reviewers relied "on the HPV vaccine manufacturers' own unverified assessments" in making the decision not to investigate potential safety signals in the clinical trial data.
Finally, the critique of the Cochrane HPV vaccine review notes the importance of gathering all relevant data and information (including unpublished data), rather than cherry-picking only some of the data. This is a crucial observation in light of the recognized limitations of clinical trial journal publications:
"The Cochrane authors 'planned requesting data…to fill in gaps with available unpublished data,' but 'due to constraints in time and other resources' they were unable to do so. Considering that seven years passed from the publication of the Cochrane protocol in 2011 to the Cochrane review in 2018, lack of time seems a poor excuse for not trying to obtain unpublished trial documents and data. More importantly, harms cannot be assessed reliably in published trial documents—especially in journal publications of industry-funded trials where even serious harms often are missing." [emphasis added]
For anyone interested in gaining an improved understanding of "behind-the-scenes" industry machinations and the biases of industry sock puppets, it is well worth taking the time to read the full critique of the Cochrane HPV vaccine review.

European MPs Peer-Reviewed Study Proves Overturn of Glyphosate in EU was Based on Monsanto Plagiarized Scientific Fraud Paper
Controversy over glyphosate has reached an all-time high in the European Union (EU), after researchers accused the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) of plagiarizing a report supporting its safety. The plagiarized sections were largely lifted from a paper written by the pesticide industry, raising serious concerns about the legitimacy of the findings. The scandal asserts that the German risk assessment of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup herbicide, contains sections "copy pasted" from industry contributions, which likely influenced the EU's favorable vote to renew the chemical's license.

Top Purdue figurehead Richard Sackler made the comments in the mid-1990s, according to court documents filed on Tuesday afternoon in a case brought by the Massachusetts attorney general, Maura Healey. The case accuses the company and its executives of "deceiving" patients and doctors about the addictive and deadly risks of the … Read More

(Exact date unknown to author) In January, 2016, the Obama White House summoned Ukrainian authorities to Washington to discuss several ongoing matters under the guise of coordinating "anti-corruption efforts," reports The Hill's John Solomon. The January 2016 gathering, confirmed by multiple participants and contemporaneous memos, brought some of Ukraine's top corruption prosecutors and investigators face to face with members of former President Obama's National Security Council (NSC), FBI, State Department and Department of Justice (DOJ). The agenda suggested the purpose was training and coordination. But Ukrainian participants said … Read More
Regulatory Czar Cass Sunstein argues in Academic Paper that heavy Tax should be Imposed on Conspiracy Theorist
In a lengthy academic paper, President Obama's regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein, argued the U.S. government should ban "conspiracy theorizing" by the Government …impos[ing] some kind of tax, financial or otherwise, on those who disseminate such theories." Among the beliefs Sunstein would ban is advocating that the theory of global warming is a deliberate fraud. Sunstein also recommended the government send agents to infiltrate "extremists who supply conspiracy theories" to disrupt the efforts of the "extremists" to propagate their theories. In a 2008 Harvard law paper, "Conspiracy Theories," Sunstein … Read More
Racak Massacre a False Flag to Gain Support for US Air Attack in Kosovo War?
In conjunction with the White House, the State Department launched a propaganda blitz to convince the American people that Americans ought to get more deeply involved militarily in the Yugoslavia conflict. Only about half the public, according to various opinion polls, bought into it. But it's not for lack of trying. A survey of major media programs over a five day period, March 23rd through March 28th, showed twelve different appearances by administration spokesmen. Typically, the administration alleges that human rights abuses require the United States to intervene … Read More

Q: The former director of the CIA, Robert Gates, stated in his memoirs ["From the Shadows"], that American intelligence services began to aid the Mujaheddin in Afghanistan 6 months before the Soviet intervention. In this period you were the national security adviser to President Carter. You therefore played a role in this affair. Is that correct? Brzezinski: Yes. According to the official version of history, CIA aid to the Mujaheddin began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, 24 Dec 1979. But the reality, … Read More

Most people believe their tax dollars are applied directly to the expenses of government. An extension of this same belief promotes people's desire to pay their fair share of the tax burden so we can all enjoy the benefits of living in America. Industrialist Peter Grace and syndicated columnist Jack Anderson formed the Grace Commission in 1982 in response to President Reagan's "Private Sector Survey on Cost Control." Two years later, after 161 corporate executives and community leaders directed over 2,000 researchers to investigate government spending, the 47-volume, … Read More

The General Education Board, a Rockefeller Endowed Tax-Exempt Foundation, is Approved by Congress
Before 1852 American education consisted of one-room school houses, independent teachers, and students of all ages attending of their own free will. Curriculums and funding came directly from local communities without a federalized bureaucracy ruling over every facet like today. From 1852 to 1918 things changed as the government began pushing to enforce compulsory schooling laws all across America. The first federalized education board was the 1870 founded NEA (National Education Administration) which quickly announced that countrywide school science courses must be restructured to teach "evolution" as fact, … Read More

COMEY'S ADMISSION: Comey Claims OBAMA 'Jeopardized' Hillary Investigation
Former FBI director James Comey raised new questions over Hillary Clinton's botched email investigation Sunday night; claiming former President Barack Obama "jeopardized" the FBI's probe during the 2016 election.
Comey was speaking with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos over the weekend when he slammed his former boss for publicly commenting on Clinton's investigation; adding the President's comments "really did surprise" him.
"We had the problem that President Obama had twice publicly basically said, 'There's no there, there.' In an interview with—on Fox, an interview on '60 Minutes,' I think. Both times he said that. So that's his Justice Department," Comey said.
"He's a very smart man and a lawyer. And so it surprised me. He shouldn't have done it. It was inappropriate," he added. "It really did surprise me."
According to excerpts from his new memoir obtained by the Washington Examiner, Comey slams Obama for "jeopardizing" the Department of Justice.
"Contributing to this problem, regrettably, was President Obama. He had jeopardized the Department of Justice's credibility in the investigation."

for Change you can download: a billion in secret Congressional reports
You are not allowed to execute the action you have requested.
{{analysis|country=United States}} {{date|2009-2-8}}
 EDITORIAL Change you can download.  Wikileaks has released nearly a billion dollars worth of quasi-secret reports commissioned by the United States Congress. [[Image:RL31555.jpg|frame|Frontpage of sample CRS report, RL31555: [[CRS:_China_and_Proliferation_of_Weapons_of_Mass_Destruction_and_Missiles:_Policy_Issues%2C_January_7%2C_2009|China and Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction and Missiles: Policy Issues]], dated January 7, 2009. A full listing of reports is available [[:Category:Congressional_Research_Service|here]].]] The 6,780 reports, current as of this month, comprise over 127,000 pages of material on some of the most contentious issues in the nation, from the U.S. relationship with Israel to the financial collapse. Nearly 2,300 of the reports were updated in the last 12 months, while the oldest report goes back to 1990. The release represents the total output of the Congressional Research Service (CRS) electronically available to Congressional offices. The CRS is Congress's analytical agency and has a budget in excess of $100M per year. Open government lawmakers such as Senators John McCain (R-Arizona) and Patrick J. Leahy (D-Vermont) have fought for years to make the reports public, with bills being introduced--and rejected--almost every year since 1998. The CRS, as a branch of Congress, is exempt from the Freedom of Information Act. CRS reports are highly regarded as non-partisan, in-depth, and timely. The reports top the list of the "10 Most-Wanted Government Documents" compiled by the Washington based Center for Democracy and Technology<ref>http://www.cdt.org/righttoknow/10mostwanted/ 10 Most Wanted Government Documents</ref>. The Federation of American Scientists, in pushing for the reports to be made public, stated that the "CRS is Congress' Brain and it's useful for the public to be plugged into it,"<ref>http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/18/AR2007021801064_pf.html</ref>. While Wired magazine called their concealment "The biggest Congressional scandal of the digital age"<ref>http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/8.11/govdocs.html</ref>. Although all CRS reports are legally in the public domain, they are quasi-secret because the CRS, as a matter of policy, makes the reports available only to members of Congress, Congressional committees and select sister agencies such as the GAO. Members of Congress are free to selectively release CRS reports to the public but are only motivated to do so when they feel the results would assist them politically. Universally embarrassing reports are kept quiet. Each time the topic of opening up the reports comes up, it runs into walls erected by opposing lawmakers such as Sen. Ted Stevens (R-Alaska), who "like many members of Congress, views CRS as an extension of his staff,". If the reports were made public, "every time a member requests a particular document, the public may infer that he's staking out a particular policy position." (Aaron Saunders, Stevens' spokesman, Washington Post, 2007)<ref>http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/18/AR2007021801064_pf.html</ref>. However that hasn't stopped a grey market forming around the documents. Opportunists smuggle out nearly all reports and sell them to cashed up special interests--lobbyists, law firms, multi-nationals, and presumably, foreign governments. Congress has turned a blind eye to special interest access, while continuing to vote down public access. Opposition to public availability comes not only from members of Congress but, also, from within the CRS. One might think that the CRS, as an agency of the Library of Congress, would institutionally support having a wider audience. But an internal memo reveals the CRS lobbying against bills (S. Res. 54 and H.R. 3630) which would have given the public access to its reports (Project on Government Secrecy, FAS, 2003)<ref>http://www.fas.org/sgp/news/2003/12/crs.html</ref>. The primary line pushed by the CRS is the one that appeals most to Congressional members--open publication would prevent spin control. The memo states this in delicate terms, referring to such spin failures as "Impairment of Member Communication with Constituents". Of course the CRS doesn't really care about politicians facing much needed voter discipline, but it does have reasons of its own to avoid public oversight. Institutionally, the CRS has established an advisory relationship with members of Congress similar to the oversight-free relationship established between intelligence agencies and the office of the President. Free from meaningful public oversight of its work, the CRS, as "Congress's brain", is able to influence Congressional outcomes, even when its reports contain errors. Arguably, its institutional power over congress is second only to the parties themselves. Public oversight would reduce its ability to exercise that influence without criticism. That is why it opposes such oversight, and that is why such oversight must be established immediately. In 1913 Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, a forceful proponent for open government, stated "Sunlight is the best disinfectant; electric light the most efficient policeman". Those wise words are still true today.

Direct Current BV - 2013-03-25 Vote for DC=DECENT entry no.59 at the P-Nuts Award 2013!
Vote for DC=DECENT entry no.59 at the P-Nuts Awards 2013!
Vote for the foundation of sustainable energy!
We have entered the P-Nuts Award 2013: "Leaders in sustainable energy" competition with our ongoing project DC=DECENT. In this competition we would like to highlight the FOUNDATION of sustainable energy, especially the importance of a DC infrastructure in our society.
At this moment, in our project DC=DECENT, we are testing a DC smart grid, designed and installed by our company, in a test area assigned to us by the Ministry of Economic Affairs. This is the first DC grid and DC system in the world that connects DC generators and the DC distribution to the DC consumers.
Please support us in this mission to lay the foundation of sustainable energy, so that DC gets a firm hold within the world of AC. Therefore we ask you kindly to vote for our project DC=DECENT, entry number 59 at the P-Nuts Awards 2013: http://www.p-nuts.nu/.
Closing date is 16 April 2013. Every vote counts!
DC smart grids are the foundation of sustainable energy. Indeed, almost all renewable energy sources generate DC. And almost all energy consumers, from computers to energy-saving lamps, work on DC. Each device, internally operating on DC, is equipped with a converter to convert the AC voltage from the current AC grids to DC, which also results in energy losses in the process. In other words, we transport power on AC grids, while the generators and consumers already work on DC. In order to reduce raw materials costs and achieve high returns along the whole energy chain, it is logical to reduce the number of conversions in the power infrastructure. By energy transportation on DC with a DC smart grid it is possible to make most of the conversions obsolete.
Direct Current BV has developed electronics that secure the DC systems, which has now made it possible to make use of DC smart grids in a safe way. Moreover, we are working on testing the DC system within the NEN standards, and for this reason we need social support in case we have to adapt these NEN standards. In a working group together with the NEN, we are working on adjusting the NEN standards in the field of DC. In order to raise social support for DC and to fight against the prejudices that DC would be unsafe, we have entered the P-Nuts Award contest in order to bring our project to the attention of the public.

How a 'shadow zone' traps the world's oldest ocean water
New research from an international team has revealed why the oldest water in the ocean in the North Pacific has remained trapped in a shadow zone around 2 kilometers below the sea surface for over 1,000 years. To put it in context, the last time this water encountered the atmosphere the Goths had just invaded the Western Roman Empire. The research suggests the time the ancient water spent below the surface is a consequence of the shape of the ocean floor and its impact on vertical circulation. "Carbon-14 dating had already told us the most ancient water lies in the deep North Pacific. But until now we had struggled to understand why the very oldest waters huddle around the depth of 2 km," said lead author from the University of New South Wales, Dr Casimir de Lavergne. "What we have found is that at around 2 km below the surface of the Indian and Pacific Oceans there is a 'shadow zone' with barely any vertical movement that suspends ocean water in an area for centuries. The shadow zone is an area of almost stagnant water sitting between the rising currents caused by the rough topography and geothermal heat sources below 2.5 km and the shallower wind driven currents closer to the surface. Before this research, models of deep ocean circulation did not accurately account for the constraint of the ocean floor on bottom waters. Once the researchers precisely factored it in they found the bottom water can not rise above 2.5 km below the surface, leaving the region directly above isolated. While the researchers have unlocked one part of the puzzle their results also have the potential to tell us much more. "When this isolated shadow zone traps millennia old ocean water it also traps nutrients and carbon which have a direct impact on the capacity of the ocean to modify climate over centennial time scales," said fellow author from Stockholm University, Dr Fabien Roquet. The article "Abyssal ocean overturning shaped by seafloor distribution" is published in the scientific journal Nature.

I have a rubber tree plant that I noticed the leaves are starting to curl under with no color change and then the whole stem breaks over. After doing some research online, I thought it might have root rot so I pulled it out of its pot and it was not setting in moisture. I water it once a week and only lightly at that but I did notice some white stuff on top of the soil. I decided to transplant into a pot that was 1" larger but that didn't seem to help. When I transplanted and watered, I fed it a little with plant food. I got this plant when my handicap 13 year old passed away and really don't want to lose it...help.
There could be a few issues in play here.
Rubber Trees do not like change. Stresses like being moved or repotting can cause leaf drop.
Insects can also be an issue. Neem Oil is a good, safe treatment and is safe for people and pets. It works as both an insecticide and fungicide.
Don't over fertilize. They need very little fertilizer and if you repotted with new good quality potting mix the plant has adequate nutrients.
Check the soil. Make sure it is needing water before you water, don't rely on a scheduled watering.
