im a poser woser.
Edit: Updated download link
Hi all
Massive delay from me in getting this next part recorded, its a bit longer than all the others at just over 2 hours, and has a but more trickery with the mixing.
First up, the link:
The Olmec Heads - Spiritualised (1999)
Andy Ling - Fixation (1999)
Arrakis - Aira Force (1998)
Fire & Ice - Neverending melody (1999)
Vimana - We Came (1999)
The Art of Trance - Madagascar (1999)
Freestate - Different Ways (2000)
Digger - Church of Ra (1999)
Push - Universal Nation (Ferry Corsten mix)(1999)
Binary Finary - 1999 (1999)
That Airscape remix (1999)
Digger - Nanuki (1999)
Gigolo - Al Paradis (Matt Darey Remix (1999)
Transa - Supernova (1999)
Running out of the blue (Vinyl 'mash up')
Pablo Gargano - Trance in Saigon (1997)
Skynet UK � Open the floodgates (1999)
Cherrymoontrax - In My Electric House (1996)
Blue Planet Corperation - Overbloody flood (1993)
Once again this is 90% vinyl with a the odd cd and a sampler to help with tricks.
A few notes about the tracks:
Big thanks to Alex Buck for reminding me about Andy Ling a few years back, wow has that tune not aged at all, and likewise Markus for Arrakis which I almost don't dare play anywhere because its so your track on the London circuit. After that this goes into a few of my 'weapon' tunes, Vimana is an almighty masterpiece from Tiesto and Ferry before they got too big to keep working together. Fire and Ice...wow...Neverending Melody for me is perhaps one of the all time greats. Its sad. But yet massively, massively euphoric....a really superbly judged piece that just keeps creeping up on you with its huge classical undertones to it.
I've also included 2 tunes by Digger which are on the same 12 and probably one of the most wanted bits of trance from any Dj who knows their stuff. Took me years to get this and it was a birthday gift which has to be about the best present ever! How can this be one record - Church of Ra is a big Corsten-eque hands in the air track whilst 'Nanuki' uses a subtle trible chant with some immaculately contained chords to hook you in - just outstanding. As the mix moves into the 2nd half A lesser known Matt Darey here with a hypnotic harmonica sample from an old 60s TV show thats taken me a long time to acquire (and thanks to a fellow TA as well). A few harder tunes nearer the end - I wasn't sure about putting 'In my electric house' on as its basically a rave anthem more than trance but its a classic uplifting tune and hopefully brings back a few memories. Finally an old psy trance rarity from Blue Planet Corperation to end. 18 years old and still sounding supurb.
Thanks for checking this out and feel free to post feedback, or abuse

Cheers all!
Part5 is slowly underway but probably a month away or more in all honesty
"And lol at "That Airscape Remix"
massive tunes
Another classy set from your good self . An absolute belter , many thanks.
Got my self one of those Anti-Bullying wristbands.....stole it from a fat kid.x
Can not wait good sir .. But I will, quality takes time so take yours
Part 5 of this series moves into the naughties loosely covering tracks from 2000 � 2002, with all the usual samples and a bit of trickery. Once again a mostly vinyl based set.
To kick things off, there is an intro mash up featuring Annie Lennox (And Jim Morrison, just for kicks) who has an incredibly powerful and haunting voice. When teamed up with remix maestro�s Gabriel & Dresden, they produced a timeless progressive-vocal trancer: �A Thousand Beautiful Things� which I�ve mixed back into a number of tunes in this set. This is followed by an early production from Kuffdam & Plant - �When I�m missing you� is not as quick as their more recent productions and I just love the drifty nature of this tune. You�ll hear more from these guys in part 6. James Holden and the ITWT label then follow with what are essentially strong filler tunes before we head more into anthems thanks to Tiesto.
Monkey Forrest deserves a special mention as one of the best tunes out, doesn�t sound a day old after 8 odd years since the first release and these two ITWT release here I think were their best, for me at least. Top tune on here for me is the just epic Fire & Ice �Lost Emotions 2001.� This was always a weapon for me in my record bag as I never heard anyone play this until the Bryan Kearney remix came out far more recently. Honourable mention as well to Mat Silver for his super crisp �Blue skies� which was the debut release on Above the Sky Records. �Memories� also features which is on the flipside. A spot of trance trivia for you: The vocals in both are from Mat Silver�s wife. You�ll be hearing plenty more from Above The Sky in the parts that follow.
As the mix heads toward its climax I slipped in another lesser played Matt Darey remix: �Rise� which is definitely one to play your friend if they�ve just split up with their girlfriend/boyfriend...ditto �troubled soul� which became a local anthem at London trance night �Knowhere� I used play at regularly � had to put that in for you guys! We then tail off into Seven Cities to leave you with a warm fuzzy feeling I hope!
Thanks for listening, and check out previous 4 parts if you haven�t already. Part 6 in a couple of months.
Aria � Dido (2000)
Annie Lennox - A Thousand Beautiful Things (Gabrielle & Dresden Remix) (2003)
Kuffdam & Plant - when I'm missing you (2003)
Accadia - Into the Dawn (James Holden Remix) (2001)

The Alabama Crimson Tide headed into Saturday's game against No. 15 Texas A&M as the top-ranked team in the country. Sixty minutes later, it was all over but the crying as the Aggies handed the Tide their first loss of the season.
Johnny "Football" Manziel and the Aggies were quick out of the blocks with the freshman quarterback leading A&M to a 20-0 lead by the end of the first quarter. The Tide fought back, closing to within three in the third but a 29-yard field goal by Taylor Bertolet early in the fourth quarter put the Aggies back up by six.
Alabama had a chance to go ahead two drives later, but a fumble by freshman running back T.J. Yeldon put the ball back in Manziel's capable hands. Two plays later, A&M took a 29-17 lead.
Alabama answered on the next drive with quarterback A.J. McCarron connecting with Amari Cooper for a touchdown. The extra point by Jeremy Shelley was good, putting the Tide within five at 29-24 with just over six minutes left to play.
The Alabama defense did what it could to give the Tide the chance to win by forcing a quick three and out. The Tide offense managed to drive the ball to the Texas A&M 2-yard line before tragedy struck for their national championship hopes in the form of an Aggies interception. The Aggies would go on to win 29-24.
The Tide (9-1, 6-1) still has a chance at the SEC championship and can clinch the West on Nov. 24 against Auburn. First though, the Tide will host Western Carolina on Nov. 17.
The Aggies (8-2, 5-2) host Sam Houston State next week before finishing out the season against SEC-rival Missouri.
In other SEC action:
Arkansas 20, No. 8 South Carolina 38 – Arkansas started strong, but proved to be no match for Steve Spurrier's Gamecocks. South Carolina improved to 8-2 after turning an 11-point halftime lead into a rout. "I think the last time we beat them (George W.) Bush was the president," South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier said according to the Log Cabin Democrat. "It was four years ago, I know that. It's been a long time. They are not quite the team they have been in the past." The Razorbacks, now at 4-6 overall, must win games against two ranked teams -- Mississippi State on Nov. 17 and LSU on Nov. 23 -- to be bowl eligible. The Gamecocks Host Wofford next week before finishing the regular season at Clemson on Nov. 24.
Missouri 51, Tennessee 48 – The Volunteers (4-6, 0-6) remain winless in the SEC, but certainly not for lack of trying. It took four overtime periods for Mizzou (5-5, 2-5) to secure its second SEC win of the season. "After the defense has kept Missouri in several games this season, the offense made plays to win this game," the Missourian reported. Next week, Missouri hosts Syracuse and Tennessee travels to Vanderbilt.
University of Louisiana Lafayette 20, No. 6 Florida 27 – The Gators (9-1, 7-1) prevailed after a nail-biter in the Swamp Saturday. The Ragin' Cajuns led 20-13 early in the forth. Florida tied the game at 20-all before scoring the go-ahead touchdown with just two seconds left on the clock. "The Gators were coming off eight consecutive games against SEC foes and were supposed to get a break against a middle-of-the-pack team from the Sun Belt Conference. Louisiana-Lafayette was a 27-point underdog, was paid $950,000 to be Florida's homecoming opponent," the Daytona News Journal reported. The Gators host Jacksonville State next week before closing out the regular season against Florida State in Tallahassee.
No. 5 Georgia 38, Auburn 0 – The Dawgs (9-1, 7-1) clinched the SEC East Saturday with a 38-0 blowout of the Auburn Tigers (2-8, 0-7). "The Georgia Bulldogs are now a virtual lock to appear in a BCS bowl game, and not that much has to happen for them to be a one-loss team in the national title game," according to the Bleacher Report. Georgia hosts Georgia Southern next week and the Tigers play host to Alabama A&M.
No. 21 Mississippi State 17, No. 7 LSU 37 – After last week's devastating loss to Alabama, LSU (8-2, 4-2) was looking for redemption and they got it against Mississippi State (7-3, 3-3). "The question was whether this football team was going to come to play after playing an emotional game a week ago," LSU Coach Les Miles told the Times-Picayune. "There's no question they were. There's a fundamental feeling in this building, this stadium and this football program that we're just catching speed, just getting the pace that we need. We're not going to sacrifice our improvement based on the fact we played a tough team." Up next for the Bulldogs is a trip to Starkville to face the embattled Razorbacks. LSU will host Ole Miss.
Vanderbilt 27, Ole Miss 26 – Vanderbilt (6-4, 4-3) became bowl eligible with Saturday's 1-point win over the Ole Miss Rebels (5-5, 2-4). "Vanderbilt may choose to ignore the bowl talk, but there is no ignoring the little piece of history the Commodores made with a huge comeback on Saturday night in Mississippi," USA Today reported. "Vanderbilt rallied from 17 points down early in the third quarter and secured a bowl berth in consecutive seasons for the first time with a 27-26 win over Ole Miss before a sellout crowd of 60,572 at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium." Vanderbilt will host cross-state rival Tennessee next week. The Rebels head to Death Valley to take on the LSU Tigers.

My journey
Found out about BRCA1+ status 6 months to 1 year ago. Tested because my Mom was diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer in 1999, tested positive for the BRCA mutation, and passed away in 2001. My Aunt (my Mom's sister) was diagnosed with breast cancer in her 20's and it was terminal. She also tested positive for the mutation and passed away in 2004. I have not had cancer. I am two weeks out of having my PBM with skin-sparing DIEP reconstruction and couldn't be happier. I will continue increased screening for ovarian cancer as I would like to have more children. But after that I will be going down the prophylactic surgery road again.
The hardest part of my journey
The hardest part of my journey was finding out my results. After my results it became more of a reality. It's also brought up a lot of feelings I had about my Mom's death.
If I could do it over again
I wouldn't do anything differently than I am now. I feel empowered with the knowledge I have been given. For my Mom and my Aunt, the knowledge wasn't available till it was too late. Now I have knowledge that I will someday share with my daughter and future children.
My participation with FORCE
FORCE and the wonderful people that are a part of FORCE have been my rock through this ongoing journey. The knowledge I have attained here has been amazing. The feedback from others who have been or are in my situation reminds me that I am not alone and that we can make it!
Other thoughts
I am funny and charismatic, I love to read, spend time with my daughter and friends and family. I am a normal, single 25-year-old who loves life!!!

September may seem like a long time away, but multiple waves have already sold out for Cardiff 2014, so it's time to bag those entries! 2014 will again see the MH Survival Series travel to cities in Wales, England and Scotland for the Tri-Nations Series before we unleash 2 "finales" in Manchester and London. National pride is at stake as we invite Survivors from across the Land to front up to the challenge. The Welsh Capital won the 2012 and the 2013 Tri-Nation series and is the host location for the first event of this year's Tri-Nations Series. So get down to Cardiff on 28th September 2014 and prepare to defend your National pride.
Hill Slide
MH at work
Farmer Giles
Camo ascent
Army Assault Course
Wall of Fame
Monkey tennis
Dock of the bay
Tunnel Vision
The event village for the 2014 event will be located again at the spectacular Roald Dahl Plas in the "Oval Basin" events arena, next to the gleaming Wales Millennium Centre and the Welsh Assembly, right on the waterfront of Cardiff Bay. The action starts and finishes here, with a spectacular charge over the Hay Bale Wall starting the race and a gruelling climb over the MH Wall of Fame on the menu for when you return, to the delight of the huge crowd that gathers here. 2014 will see a little re-modelling of the route, with the course taking in both the city centre and the water-side elements of the City. It makes for a sensationally urban outing; and maybe a little "watery" too. In previous years, we have varied the course in advance of the event due to environmental factors in Cardiff Bay, but whatever the weather, do not expect to stay totally dry for this one. Pre-event or post, our base in the Oval Basin is also home to the many bars, shops and restaurants of the Mermaid Quay development next door to us and there is a real buzz around this smart new bit of the city.
For 2014 we are giving the route a bit of a refresh, but we will still be featuring some great locations at Cardiff Bay and in town. You might experience one or two different obstacles en route from previous years too and almost certainly there will be new content added to the route. In 2013 we definitely upped the obstacle count and we might do so again for 2014! Significantly, the Millennium Stadium will be out for 2014, due to major works being undertaken there.
All this Survivin' is thirsty work. We will be building our trade-mark brilliant beer tent at the event site once more. We will be serving up ice-cold beer and real ales and the beer tent will be open until you are all safely home. If 2013's innings is anything to go by, we'll be needing to talk to the nice man at the Brewery to set aside a good few barrels, as you decimated the beer in 2013! Expect Rat Race Blonde ales and ice-cold lager on draught as minimum.
Cardiff is on the M4 and a wee hop, skip and a jump across the Severn bridges for those travelling from Southern England. For those coming from the north, the M50 can bring you pretty quickly towards Cardiff via the Wye valley from Brum and beyond.
There is a small station at Cardiff Bay, right next to the event village which has connections from Cardiff Central. National rail sees direct trains run between London Paddington and Cardiff on the Great Western mainline. It takes around 2 hours from London. Connections between Cardiff and the South West of England are also strong via Bristol. To the north, cross country routes take you to and from the Midlands and beyond with ease. Please check timetables for further details
Cardiff International airport is a 45 minute train or bus ride away from the city centre.
There is plenty to choose from in Cardiff. From super stylish options in the city centre, to budget accommodation and magnificent out-of-town country house hotels, there is a good deal of choice. Try www.visitcardiff.com for a full run-down of options, plus superb info on what's on around town and in the surrounding valleys and mountains of the stunning Welsh countryside.

Ravens fans feeling confident
The Baltimore Ravens, the very same team that lost to Tom Brady and the New England Patriots in last year's AFC Championship Game, will try to avenge that loss in Foxborough Sunday with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.
Hey, everyone else
The Patriots are an 8.5-point favorite, but that isn't quelling the confidence of some fans from Baltimore, who put together exactly what the world needed -- another "Call Me Maybe" parody.
A sampling of the lyrics:
Hey, everyone else
Might think we're crazy
But we're The Ravens
So bring on Brady
Actually, the song is pretty well-done, even if you don't believe the Ravens have any chance of knocking of the Pats.
Check it out.

Belated thanks...
November 27, 2010 - Jennifer Brookens
I was going to try to avoid the hokey "What I'm Thankful For This Year..." blog, but realize that you never know when you'll have a second chance to say the things you need to say to people. So here goes...
1) First off, I am grateful for my mother, who I take after and I take pride in that fact. She always says that I am a better person and mother than her. But if that's true, I can only say that I learned it all from the best. Love ya Mom!
2) I am so thankful for my smart, healthy, and wonderful kids. I can't help but beam at my daughter's many accomplishments and how she already carries herself like a little adult. And my son, who is teaching me patience and despite our rounds, I know he's a sweet, loving little guy underneath it all.
3) My husband who manages to put up with my many flaws and quirks. We both know it goes both ways, but when we're on the same page, we make some good things happen. Plus, I got awesome in-laws; none of that dreadful "in-law drama" that other people talk about.
4) I am grateful for the writing talent I have, and that people I interview feel comfortable enough to talk to and confide in me. Trust is a very valuable thing. So is integrity.
5) I am grateful that enough of my mother's cooking talent rubbed off on me that I was able to make a tasty Thanksgiving dinner without any smoke alarms going off or 911 calls. And now with only one pair of jeans that fit, I am also thankful for another Zumba class starting on Monday.
6) I am thankful for my friends and extended family members who care and are supportive. And even those who aren't, for they make me value my true friends even more.
7) I am thankful for small town life. While it's true you rarely go out without running into someone you know, it's usually followed with small-town compassion. When something awful happens to someone or to the community itself, it is always touching to see how we rally and come together to support those in need.
8) I am thankful I have a good sense of humor and can usually make people laugh. Especially since there are those days where if I couldn't laugh, I'd probably cry.
9) I am thankful for the power of positive thinking, for it makes the dark times much more bearable and gives me the ability to carry on.
10) Finally I am grateful for the people who actually take the time to read my ramblings here. I am always flattered when someone tells me, "I really liked your blog..." Since this is one of my few creative outlets where I can be free (more or less) it's always nice to get some feedback. Thanks!

Lee, Mirkarimi, and Gascon win first ranked choice tally
San Francisco's first run of ranked choice voting tallies for yesterday's election shows Ed Lee winning the mayor's race (with progressive favorite John Avalos in second), George Gascon remaining district attorney, and Ross Mirkarimi becoming the new sheriff in town.
"Progressive victory, citywide, that's huge," Sup. David Campos told Mirkarimi this afternoon outside the Elections Department, where a scrum of journalists and politicos gathered to get the results. It would indeed be a rare citywide victory for progressives, which analyst David Latterman says constitute about 19 percent of the electorate, compared to 39 percent who identify as moderate and 36 percent who call themselves liberals.
About 7,500 provisional and 24,000-25,000 absentee ballots remain to be counted over the next few days, said Elections Chief John Arntz, telling reporters, "I'm not saying these are the final results by any stretch." But there is good reason to believe these winners will stick.
In the sheriff's race, where Mirkarimi faced off against three candidates with long law enforcement backgrounds, David Wong was the first to be eliminated, and the lion's share of his 9,487 votes went to fellow Sheriff's Deputy Paul Miyamoto rather than Chris Cunnie, the former head of the San Francisco Police Officers Association, knocking Cunnie out of the race.
Of Wong' votes, 3,828 went to Miyamoto, 2,637 were exhausted (meaning Wong voters had no second choice), 1,682 went to Mirkarimi, and just 1,325 went to Cunnie, who had been in second place. That gave Mirkarimi almost 40 percent of the vote, compared with 30.7 percent for Miyamoto and 29.8 percent for Cunnie.
On the next round, Cunnie's 42,877 votes were redistributed as follows: 16,820 to Miyamoto, 14,675 exhausted, and 11,322 to Mirkarimi, giving him 53 percent of the vote. "I'm optimistic, but I'm not declaring victory," Mirkarimi told reporters. He said that he hopeful that he'll get the chance to continue the 30-year progressive legacy of retiring Sheriff Michael Hennessey, who endorsed Mirkarimi.
The only real variable in the sheriff's race is how Cunnie's second place votes break in the event that incoming ballots change who gets eliminated after Wong, but Mirkarimi said he was happy with how well progressive campaigns did in this election.
"I want to say how proud I am of the Avalos campaign. It did a good job at getting people out who have felt disenfranchised," Mirkarimi added.
Indeed, Avalos surprised much of the political establishment by finishing strongly in second place with 18.3 percent of the vote compared to Lee's 31.5 percent and Dennis Herrera's 11.3 percent. In the first ranked choice run, it took 11 rounds of eliminations for Lee to break the 50 percent threshold of victory. And when he did, he jumped all the way to 61 percent, mostly because voters who chose Herrera as their third choice exhausted their ballots.
When Herrera was eliminated in Round 10, 18,276 of his 29,717 votes were exhausted, and of the balance, 6,683 went to Avalos and 4,705 went to Lee, where they had been at 28 percent and 49 percent respectively. Avalos then finished second with 39 percent of the vote.
Other notable rounds in the mayoral runoff were when fourth place finisher David Chiu was eliminated and his nearly 20,000 votes broke most heavily in favor of Ed Lee and being exhausted, reinforcing the idea that he draws his support mostly from moderates and is no longer part of the progressive movement that helped elect him to the Board of Supervisors.
Avalos got just 2,376 of Chiu's second place votes, compared to 5,894 for Lee and 3,832 for Herrera. By contrast, when Leland Yee was eliminated a round earlier, his votes were redistributed fairly evenly among Lee, Chiu, Herrera, and Avalos. Part of the reason that Avalos never gained ground on Lee was that the mayor got more second place votes than his progressive challenger on every elimination between Round 3 and the final round.
In the DA's race, Gascon's 42 percent total of first place votes is an insurmountable lead, particularly given that he also did well on the second place votes, showing that attacks on his secrecy and police connections didn't do much to hurt him. When third place finisher Sharmin Bock was eliminated in the third round, Gascon got 13,301 of her votes, compared with 10,430 for David Onek, and 11,840 exhausted.
The Elections Department will run new totals every day at 4 pm
Herrera voters were that dumb?
Ahaa, its nice dialogue regarding this article at this place at this webpage,
I have read all that, so at this time me also commenting at
this place.
Not necessarily that Herrera voters had no second choice. Should also note that by the time Herrera was eliminated, many of his votes were probably already 3rd choice votes so there were no more candidates to go to for those voters. Also Herrera probably drew votes at some point on their ballot from moderate voters who for whatever reason didn't vote for Ed Lee but didn't want to vote for John Avalos either.
Congratulations John. One thing I guess this demonstrates is that we now exactly where Chiu, Herrera and their supporters stand. Onward and Upward Companeros.
I agree with the earlier comment about Herrera voters...it probably had more to do with ballot exhaustion than anything else. Either people who chose Herrera first or second, but didn't put Avalos or Lee on their ballot or people who had Herrera as their third choice.
Some number of Chiu voters voted for him because he is Asian and they probably voted for Lee after Chiu because he is Asian too. A plurality of Yee voters chose Lee as their next choice..definitely doesn't mean that there is any love between Leland and Ed.
if Mirkarimi wins. It'll be interesting to see who Lee appoints to that open seat.
Probably London Breed.
Quick Google search shows me that she seems like someone who'd be appointed by Lee to an open seat in that district - she's definitely a machine-type Democrat.
If you've never heard of her I suggest you try and familiarize yourself with SF politics and history before posting here and exposing yourself as a complete doofus.
Some of us have lives, families and jobs which take up a great deal of our time. Some of us don't pay attention to the machinations of machine Democrats outside of our own districts - because we don't really care.
I see someone has taken h. brown's place as the resident self-important windbag of the SFBG comment boards.
Until recently London Breed (who began as a Willie Brown protege) was a Commissioner for the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency, where, just like all of the other Redevelopment commissioners, she was a 100% rubber stamp vote for Lennar corporation's neighborhood destroying boondoggle gentrification projects in the Bayview Hunters Point and on Treasure Island.
Did you know she grew up in the projects, raised by her grandmother, who now suffers from dementia and lives in Laguna Honda? ( London visits her most Sundays). Did you know that London attended SF public schools (a graduate of Galileo HS) and UC Davis? Did you know that London has been a staunch supporter of Ross Mirkarimi's? She isthe Executive Director of the African American Arts and Cultural Center and has implemented great programs for kids there, among many others. She has tirelessly represented her district and would be a great choice for D 5 Supervisor, whether she is appointed or elected.
The Machine is great at this -creating candidates out of thin air, wrapping them up in a nice suit, creating a story, etc. Willie isn't stupid. He won't appoint someone rabid like Sean Elsbernd -not in D5.
He'll appoint someone like London Breed, who they can tell a nice story about, make her look all progressive, even let her vote the right way... *WHEN* it doesn't matter. When her vote actually makes the difference, she'll of course have to fall in line, but she'll have plenty of allegedly progressive votes to point to by the time she runs for re-election. In the meantime, count on the Chronicle to churn out puff piece after lugubrious puff piece every couple weeks over the course of one year.
It's OK though.D5 voters aren't dumb. We'll beat her.
When over 60% vote for Lee, they are saying they trust his judgment to do things like select Supes whose values align with the majority.
Especially not in D5
So Guest, Can you explain how the narrative you just laid out negates the undeniable fact that London Breed completely fucked over the Bayview Hunters Point community, on behalf of the Wall Street developer Lennar corporation; allowing toxic chemical and asbestos poisoning of thousands of Bayview residents, which will most certainly kill some of them, and has probably already led to asthma deaths there?
I am encouraged by the fact that maybe 40% of the 30% that give a damn and actually voted, supported John Avalos. I don't think any of us 'progressives' really thought we had any chance of rubbing out "La Familia". Slick Willie, et al, are back in the driver's seat instead of the back seat, it was about as foregone a conclusion as that the climate is really changing. Those are realities we are confronted with and have to deal with. "We" will continue fighting to try and change policies so that the majority of people can be cared for and considered. I have no issues with those 'guests' who criticize 'progressives' for poor organization, I have been saying that for decades; what I do find unsettling and unfortunate is that so many 'guests' here seem to be under the illusion that they are part of the privileged "1%". I suggest you might want to read the words of Pastor Niemoller again, assuming you are familiar with them, if not check them out; 'we' are not your enemy, unless you really are 'one of them', which I doubt, or you wouldn't be bloviating here.
...in a higher turnout election, we would had done even better.
We should also take heart that if more people had voted for Avalos, then he would have won.
We should also take heart that if Avalos was the only one running for Mayor, he would have gotten more votes.
Keep making excuses for losing. It's really constructive.
Progressives failed to help energize that higher needed turnout I'm referencing; and most importantly, failed to strongly coordinate our ranked choice strategy with eachother to focus on two or three chosen candidates and then message those choices bigtime to the voters. The latter is precisely why we lost.
would have voted any differently than those that did?
This is already a well established historical fact. Higher turnout elections always result in a more progressive vote. This is why conservative always try to discourage turnout, and also place their ballot measures in off year elections when there are no high profile races for seats like U.S. president or state Governor.
If you had any real evidence, you'd cite it.
Because people the people who voted did not like the person you ran, the progressive agenda in San Francisco is no secret from the voters. Avalos was running on that history and he got beat.
Your revealed agenda is not appealing to voters as a whole. No amount of educating the voter is going to change that. No amount of organizing or advocating will change that in the short term.
You"re like the conservatives who complain that McCain and Dole lost because they were not real Reagan conservatives, so the real conservative base was not energized.
from a clear loss
Instead of the obvious conclusion - Avalos was too left-wing for the average SF'er to stomach.
They instead assume it was mere chance, if only this, if only that.
There's none so blind as those who won't see
...as a voter who is bombarded by millions of dollars in corporate and developer ads for one candidate.
what an anonymous internet trolls says in a chatroom
Daly beat Rob Black.
Black outspent Daly with downtown money, so the resulting progressive output was that the people saw through the bullshit of the corporate candidate.
Money buys elections unless they don't.
The voter is smart unless they are not.
The progressives speak for the people, just not when it comes to the ballot box.
It's obvious that we lost because we didn't coordinate to reconcile our differences and form progressive unity around a joint ranked choice strategy.
Just wish I had a fraction of the insight and knowledge that h has of the history and back stories about SF politics, policies and personages. I'll just keep going with my gut and heart.
If you don't measure up to the standards established by Patrick Monk that you have no business expressing yourself here or joining in the conversation. Just keep your thoughts to yourself -- free speech is a right granted at the discretion of Patrick Monk.
Finally, you're catching on.
Before he was eliminated in Round 9 your man Chiu had 14.5%, compared with Avalos 25%. A word of caution, "FEAR THE BEARD", possibly returning to a theatre near you.
I was expecting Avalos and Herrera voters to coalesce a little bit more. Fooled me.
I'd second the comment that many Chiu supporters also backed Lee because they're both Asian. Lee, Yee, Chiu, Adachi, and just about any Asian candidate saw a similar cross-ideological alignment in the IRV results.
Also, I'm confused, what does "Liberal" mean in SF, as opposed to Progressive? Should I be encouraged that 55 percent of voters identify as liberal or progressive, and just 39 percent identify as the nebulous "moderate"? Who in SF politics would be classified as a liberal, but not a progressive?
thanks to its association with people like Gabs Haaland and David Campos. Many people find it too dogmatic and unyielding. Thus they say they're liberal vs. progressive. Many progressives seem to revel in this - thus they keep losing races like the DA and Mayor's office.
A liberal is a person who has formed there views over time and has adjusted them to their life experiences.
Being a progressive is like finding Ayn Rand when you are 17, a narrow and dogmatic view of life, it's like being a fundy Christian in the will to believe and neo con like with its intellectual pretensions.
Progressive are people who if they had listened to Rush Limbaugh first would have gone for that, but progressives heard Noam Chomsky first instead.
Liberals think a difference of opinion on politics is just a difference in opinion, a progressive thinks the other person is stupid and needs to be educated correctly with the correct new speak.
progressive think that sitting down and talking to you and pointing out there talking points will make you come around, born againers think that insisting that the bible is the word of god and that since that is a fact god thinks a certain way. They both get frustrated and angry when you are too stupid to agree.
Progressives think that if you agree with them and you are not white that is a qualification, far right wingers think that if you are not white your race is a qualification if you agree with them.
Now that sounds more like the real matlock. Just FYI, and for future exchanges, I do not consider myself 'progressive' etc; after many decades the closest I have been able to come to 'categorizing' myself is as a 'radicalzenanarcho-yippiehumanistmofo'. Go figure!!~
"A liberal is a person who has formed there views over time and has adjusted them to their life experiences."
I'm a progressive. I formed my views over time and adjusted them based on life experiences and new information.
A liberal seems to adjust his views depending on the whims of the moment, at least if you're a "matlock liberal".
socialist, communist, leninist, green, liberal, progressive etc
nobody else cares
A progressive is a liberal who has been mugged by their landlord.
Nice one ;)
But I would go even further.
A progressive is a liberal who -has- a landlord.
That's actually a very good question that I began to answer at length, but I just accidentally erased it and it's now getting late after a big election night, so I think I'll wait until tomorrow and do a full post on it because it's an interesting and illuminating issue for San Francisco. Good night.
social democrats
liberal democrats
and so in
That's irrelevant to understanding San Francisco politics, but the moderate-progressive spectrum isn't.
factions when it comes to the left, and they noften hate on each other more than they hate on the common enemy.
That in turn weakens their efforts at elections.
When people here argue about whether they are a progressive or a liberal or a socialist or a green or an anarchist, it's divisive and disenpowering to the movement.
I think its fine for individual factions to vociferously and meticulously debate and deconstruct and even get angry about, our differences.
The -key- is to stop doing so for a second when we reach a key moment like this election, and get our act together to reach consensus on a strategy for that moment, so that we win it.
We didn't do that this election, and we got beat.
I've posted my analysis here: http://www.sfbg.com/politics/2011/11/10/san-franciscos-political-spectru...
HARD LINE CORPORATE MACHINE - Not even Liberal.

CHICAGO -- The Chicago Bears say they have agreed to trade former first-round draft pick Gabe Carimi to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The team confirmed the deal, which is pending a physical, on Sunday night. The Bears didn't say what they were getting in return, although a person familiar with the situation said Tampa is sending a sixth-round pick to Chicago.
The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the terms were not announced.
The Outland Trophy winner as a senior at Wisconsin, the 6-foot-7 Carimi never quite lived up to expectations after the Bears took him with the 29th pick in the 2011 draft. He started the first two games at right tackle as a rookie before suffering a season-ending knee injury and appeared to be limited last year.
He started the first 10 games at right guard before losing the job to Jonathan Scott and played guard and tackle the rest of the way. But he seemed to be the odd man out after a series of moves this off-season.
The Bears fired coach Lovie Smith and hired Marc Trestman to replace him. They also revised their offensive line, signing left tackle Jermon Bushrod and veteran guards veteran guards Matt Slauson and Eben Britton. They also drafted guard Kyle Long in the first round, adding him to a mix that also includes James Brown and Edwin Williams.
Carimi attended the Bears' voluntary minicamp in April but did not participate in organized team activities after that.
The Houston Texans selected defensive end Jadeveon Clowney first overall in the 2014 NFL Draft.

"Great design for those who like to share lots of photos. The smaller sized photos can be of lower resolution than the larger ones and still print well. Recipients seem to get confused about which is the front and which is the back... but it doesn't really matter, as the card looks great from all sides. Very impressed by the exceptionally heavy stock of paper used, plus the envelopes were of nice stock as well. The modified rectangular envelopes, plus card, return address label, stamp, and a half-page lightweight holiday letter enclosure, were mailable for just one stamp. Good deal!"
"My photos were a little dark, but the cards still turned out AMAZING! This is a great one because you can have a lot of photos on it without them being tiny... there are 6 sides to fill in with photos, and only one of those sides has small photos on it! --so it's perfect if you have a LOT of different photos you'd want larger! --or a big family, or a blended family, or pets, etc.!"
"Overall this card was amazing! The quality of the paper was exceptional and the turn around time was fast! Estimated ship date was not until the second week of December and we actually received it the first day of December (which was within 5 days from start to finish!) We are overall impressed and would definately recommend this card. :)"

While plans continue to stage Anna Nicole at the Brooklyn Academy of Music beginning Sept. 17, the balance of NYCO's season is currently in peril. The organization must raise $7 million by the end of September to produce the remaining productions in its 2013-14 season, including Bach's Endimione, Bartok's Bluebeard's Castle and Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro.
The Kickstarter campaign is enlisting members of the public to help raise $1 million online. Currently over $20,000 has been pledged in the Kickstarter campaign, which ends on Sept. 30. If the full $20 million is not capitalized by December, NYCO will also be forced to scuttle its 2014-15 season, according to the New York Times.
NYCO's statement follows: "We need the help of the people to save The People's Opera: audiences, artists, students, and everyone who cares about a world filled with exciting and innovate art. We are asking everyone to come together, to stand by The People's Opera, and help us produce our 2013–2014 season!"
In recent years the opera used $24 million from its endowment to cover expenses and repay loans. The organization, which Steel described to the Times as "living on the edge and hand-to-mouth for a number of years," has been unable to repay the endowment, which at one time provided $3 million in funding annually. That number has now dropped to less than $200,000 per year.
NYCO orchestra committee chair Gail Kruvand told the Times that its members were calling for Steel's resignation. NYCO chairman Charles R. Wall stood by Steel, stating, "George has, and always has had, the complete support of the board, as he should have. He's done a heroic job."

Newport machete cyclist gets suspended prison sentence
11:30am Friday 16th November 2012 in News By Ruth Mansfield
A CYCLIST arrested after a machete he had Sellotaped to his bike fell off in front of police was given a suspended prison sentence yesterday.
Jed Merry, 41, of Williams Close, Pill, Newport, was sentenced to ten weeks imprisonment suspended for 12 months at Cwmbran Magistrates' Court after previously pleading guilty to unlawfully possessing the bladed article, which measured around 18 inches.
The Argus previously reported how Merry originally told police it was a bread knife but then said in a police interview that he had taken the item from his girlfriend's house to cut his weeds.
Prosecuting, Rob Simkins said two police officers saw Merry riding down Stow Hill at "excessive" speed on a bicycle at around 11.20pm on September 29.
As Merry was riding, the officers heard something fall to the floor making a clanging noise and thought it was his bike chain.
Merry told them it was a bread knife but police sawit was a machete and arrested the defendant.
The court heard that at the time of the offence Merry, who has 18 previous convictions for 21 offences, was in breach of a six month conditional discharge imposed in June for being drunk and disorderly.
Representing Merry, Paul Philpott, previously told magistrates that Merry had been looking for some tools to cut the weeds and after going to his girlfriend's house to pick up some mail, he saw the machete.
He said that usually being in possession of a machete for the purpose of cutting weeds is a good reason.
He said Merry was pleading guilty on the basis that because the machete was Sellotaped to the front of his bicycle leading to it falling off and because Merry was under the influence of alcohol at the time, he accepted he had no good reason for the possession.
Merry was also sentenced to a 12-month supervision requirement and ordered to pay £300 costs.

With all the kerfuffle surrounding the huge Red Sox/Dodgers trade, and the placement of David Ortiz on the disabled list Monday, there's one further Red Sox move that sort of went under the radar:
Red Sox activate RHP Matsuzaka from 15-day DL, place DH Ortiz on 15-day DL (retro 8/25), recall OF Kalish & option RHP Beato to Pawtucket.
— Boston Red Sox (@RedSox) August 27, 2012
Not only is Daisuke Matsuzaka back on the active roster, but he is starting Monday afternoon's game against the Kansas City Royals, which, at this writing, is just beginning. He allowed a run in the first inning, unearned partly as a result of an error by Dustin Pedroia.
Matsuzaka had been reactivated from Tommy John surgery earlier this season and did not do well, posting a 6.65 ERA in five starts. He was put back on the DL July 3, so he's been rehabbing for almost two months. Perhaps it will work this time.
