4 Blast From the Past
Ice Cube's Death Certificate Turns 20: The True Story Behind "My Summer Vacation"By Ben Westhoff Wed., Oct. 26 2011 at 8:48 AM Comments (4) Categories: Blast From the Past
See also: Ice Cube Talks Art, Boyz n the Hood, and Why He Makes Comedies
This week Ice Cube's Death Certificate celebrates its 20th anniversary. The album -- which we ranked number seven on our list of the top 20 greatest L.A. rap albums of all time -- is politically bombastic in a way hip-hop albums no longer are. Taking specific aim at the police, the government, Korean grocery store owners, white men lusting for black women, and countless other targets, it's startlingly apolitically-correct. Hearing it nowadays in an era where no one wants to offend anyone is pleasantly jarring.
One of work's best tracks, "My Summer Vacation," however, concerns itself not with politics. Instead, it spins a great yarn about L.A. drug dealers who -- in an effort to escape police scrutiny and increase their profits -- head to St. Louis one summer to ply their trade. It turns out that the song has a basis in real life.
In L.A. everybody and they momma sell dope
They tryin' to stop it
So what the fuck can I do to make a profit?
Catch a flight to St. Louis
Back in 2005, while working as a staff writer at LA Weekly's sister paper Riverfront Times in St. Louis, I investigated the background of the song.
It turns out that though Cube most likely didn't experience the described events himself, he got the tale directly from a pair of Da Lench Mob members, Shorty and J-Dee. According to St. Louisans I talked to, their story indeed checks out. In fact, in the mid-'80s it was quite common for L.A. gang members to descend upon landlocked locales around the country and attempt to set up shop. Along with their dope, they also brought their slang, their gang signs, and even their drive-by shootings. Suddenly, folks were repping spots like Inglewood with which they were likely previously unfamiliar.
Some of them are even lookin up to us
Wearing our colors and talkin that gang fuss
Giving up much love
Dyin' for a street, that they ain't even heard of

The gourmet favorite; Dutch Shallot sets are easier to grow than starting from seed. These new varieties multiply extensively providing a fine assortment of sizes and are resistant to bolting.
WHEN TO PLANT: Plant as early as possible in the spring as soon as your soil is workable. This is usually 2 to 4 weeks before your last frost date.
WHERE TO PLANT: Shallots require rich, well-drained organic soil with a pH of 6.2 to 6.8 in a sunny spot for best results. They prefer even moisture throughout the growing cycle and are hardy to USDA zones 2-9.
HOW TO PLANT: Separate bulbs into individual cloves and plant so that the points are just covered with soil; spacing each clove 6" apart in rows that are 12" apart. water well and mulch to reduce soil heaving and protect plants. If necessary apply a common fertilizer; 5-10-5 at a rate of 5 pounds per 100 square feet into the soil prior to planting.
TIME TO HARVEST: Allow shallots to ripen thoroughly and leaves to wither just above the neck of the shallots. At that time remove from the garden; knock off the dirt and allow to dry for several days. Once dried, store by roping or hanging in netted bags in a cool, frost free dry spot for use throughout the winter.
USAGE: Use the same way as onions. Young suitable greens have a delicate flavor fresh from the garden to the grill or salad bowl. Mature dry bulbs are used in cooking or stored for use throughout the winter.
HELPFUL TIPS Good weed control is essential but be careful as young shallots are hard to distinguish from grass. Water once a week during dry periods.
AFTER CARE: Good keepers. Store by roping and hanging them up in a cool, frost free, dry spot.

Breastfeeding: Can mom's diet cause eczema in baby?
My four-month-old baby has had a scratchy head, neck and ears for the past month. The pediatrician told me she has infant eczema and to apply hydrocortisone cream to the itchy areas. She seems to be in tremendous pain and now wakes in the middle of the night and cannot fall back asleep. Can something in my diet have caused this condition?Question:
Debbi Donovan
Debbi Donovan is a Board Certified Lactation Consultant, as well as a retired La Leche League Leader. For more than a decade, Debbi... Read more
There are many factors that can affect your baby's development of eczema. Your diet during lactation can have an impact on your baby. If you have a family history of allergy, including asthma and/or atopic dermatitis, it is wise to avoid dairy products, and other foods you are allergic or sensitive to while breastfeeding. Studies have shown that breastfed babies tend to have less eczema than those on formula.
Exclusive breastfeeding, especially during the first four months of your baby's life is very important. Babies at high-risk for atopic dermatitis have been found to greatly benefit from this practice. Have solid foods or formula introduced into her diet? If they were, they could be part of the problem.
Eliminate all but breast milk from her diet for at least one, preferably two weeks. If she's already on solids, add a very small amount of food (one or two teaspoons) one food at a time for 3-4 days and watch for typical allergic reactions, such as fussy behavior, congestion, ear infections, wheezing, upset stomach, or eczema.
Go very slowly when introducing new foods to your baby. Stay away from those that are highly allergenic, such as cow's milk, soy, peanuts (peanut butter), wheat, eggs and citrus until she is at least one-year-old. Even then, go slowly if food allergies are suspected.
If dietary changes are necessary (it is important to be sure all your nutritional needs are being met).Answer:

I guess I am never going to understand why the wage gap is still an issue. Are we shopping in different grocery stores and shopping malls? No, not really. Do we buy cars and houses on different plans? Again, no! So why exactly does there have to be a gap? Or you think that women spend less? I doubt that! There are way more single moms than single dads, for instance, so they have to live frugally while men can afford more. I really do not see any logic in that!
By the way, women are much better financers sometimes. They will think many times before they decided to take pay day loans online, while men can be way more impulsive!

I am sending
a voice
speak truth to power
We shall be free
In a truthful manner I speak
We shall be free
With a good heart I speak
We shall be free
In April of
1999, President Clinton was in the process of delivering American
"Full Spectrum Dominance" to Kosovo. The methodology is to slaughter
civilians. Rain bombs from killing platforms at high altitude, beyond
reach of anti-aircraft defense. This is the modern American style
of spreading democratic values. I wrote these verses during a visit
to my former home.
On a Visit
to America in the Spring of Ninety Nine
My Heart Hurts, And I Grieve
For sacred
trees, gone to money
For the loneliness
of a faceless mankind / isolated /
in cyberspace
For the disconnect
of human heart / .
Mouse-click missions
that kill form a distance
For all creatures
great and small, killed /
For all things bright and beautiful — destroyed
by our mindless greed
for ease, comfort and "power"
I rage at the
ugliness of self-pity
In my seeming impotence
to do anything more useful
than just say "NO," and leave
I grieve for
my children
whose inheritance is desecrated
The blue-green planet, once
alive, breathing, sustained by respect
No matter the
of personal sacrifice,
I must not support
the killing and the lies.
"There are
times when you have to obey a call which is the highest of all —
the voice of conscience — even though such obedience may cost many
a bitter tear, and even more separation from friends, from family,
from the state to which you my belong, from all you have held as
dear as life itself. For this obedience is the Law of our being….To
deprive a man of his natural liberty and to deny him the ordinary
amenities of life is worse than starving the body. It is starvation
of the soul, the dweller in the body." ~ Gandhi
Further along
in this communication to my fellow men, I deliver one small voice
of notice. It speaks to the violations of humanity that have been
perpetrated by the Powers That Be, and that are continuing. I offer
— without suggestion of relevance to any other — my personal response.
The following verses are offered as preface to my declaration. I
hope thereby to indicate the spirit of my intentions. A man needs
a country. He would be better off without a government.
Road Log
Now the world
gone mad
in the violence of its greed
humanity gone crazy
thread the labyrinth, try to be pure
the labyrinth made of lies
meaningless, yet full of fear.
The bus rolls
quiet now, springtime nippy-cold
bird song and pussy willows and a south wind
Feel the great vast serenity space of the North
the land so sweet – a moment of reverie ~
~ then suddenly
sky shattered
civilization comes roaring the earth trembles
with sudden deafening roar
F-16's overhead
corporate state war machines rip the sky
Military Operations Area
full spectrum dominance blows away
the tranquility of ages to the edge of time
land so sweet – humanity so bitter.
First border
crossing just ahead
show documents get interrogated searched
stripped of dignity, violated
as if owned like a serf
tracked like a criminal
this is no way to live
not for a man.
From yonder
far shore
must I wage Satyagraha
my nonviolent struggle
for freedom.
See this man
in tribal cloth,
for generations oppressed
under the jack-boot heel of Big Oil
brand USA?
He is in my way,
obstructing corporate access.
And besides, he hates our freedoms.
in the name of religion
and all that is good, proper and democratic,
remembering my father's words at Kyoto
"The American lifestyle is not negotiable",
and having silenced peace-loving dissenters
by the insidious draconian Patriot Act
(you are either with me or you are in jail, may Fascism prevail)
let me now kill him off.
I will rain
upon his huts, his weddings and his children
as I click the murder-mouse
from the safety of my air conditioned bunker.
That my God and my country may reign supreme
and this other man's oil
may be mine forever.
That my shares
of Halliburton, Unocal and Carlyle
may keep on rising with news from Afghanistan and Iraq.
That the dust of depleted uranium
may mutate his foreign genes into forever and ever.
Let the Earth burn.
Let Iraqi children
starve and war widows weep –
as Ambassador Mouthpiece said before me,
"five hundred thousand dead Iraqi children is worth the price."
After all, we need the oil, and the votes,
so that our children may drive their SUV's
and aimlessly wander in mindless malls.
Lest you mistake
my intentions,
I say to you now –
lying with all my charismatic patriotism —
you had better be afraid,
for the voice of God has told me
Iran is an axis of evil.
Let them be warned,
all options are on the table.
Full spectrum dominance is our aim
shock and awe our tactic
Hiroshima our training ground.
Let them be warned,
for they are next.
Stand aside
women and children when I move my mouth
for I am the Decider and I decide
who shall live and who shall die
never having known
that these others
had lives or hopes or sufferings
or love.
* * *
For Power,
there is no tomorrow. There are no grandchildren.
Even of earth there is none.
There is only power.
The Way
has been lost. We stand on the brink of a maniacal holocaust. How
shall we live?
"The path
is made by walking." — African proverb
I send this
message to Bush
and his minions of death
Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove and Gonzales
and all the other faceless unelected
machine parts
in air conditioned bunkers anonymous
maintained at specified operating temperature
don't take it personal
morally lobotomized organs
of State
self selected symbiotic pairs
with bin Laden
mutually co-dependent
for power
to hold us in thralldom
of your lies.
Symbols of
our devolution projected
we all are responsible
for what you have become
To face and not to deny my share of
this tragedy of the human commons
is the call of duty and conscience
answered now in a clear voice speaking truth to power.
I deny you
to murder in my name
not with my income tax will you murder
come and get me if you wish
before you are booked for crimes against humanity.
I never gave
or anyone
moral sovereignty over me
my life is not your property.
Let no infant
for his blown to bits mother
from a bomb I paid for
I practice resurrection
I renounce you and all the murder for which you stand
for you my mind is trackless.
*"What kind
of victory is it when someone is left defeated? What difference
does it make to the dead, the orphans, the homeless, whether the
mad destruction is wrought under name of totalitarianism or the
holy name of liberty and democracy? What is a war criminal? Was
not war itself a crime against God and humanity, and therefore,
were not all those who sanctioned, engineered and conducted wars,
war criminals? The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is an attribute
of the strong. Non-cooperation with evil is a sacred duty." ~
Mohandas Gandhi
The Remedy
of Wisconsin Is Also Remedy of Jeff
The Constitution
has no inherent authority unless as a contract between man and man.
It does not purport to be an agreement among persons now living.
Those persons, if any, who gave their consent, are all long since
dead. The Constitution, so far as it was their contract, died with
them. They had no natural right or legal power to make it binding
upon posterity. The instrument does not purport to be an agreement
between anyone except "We the people of the United States" then
existing. It cannot be said that the Constitution formed "the
people of the United States" into a corporation extending to perpetuity.
No assemblage of men – existing at any one time – has the power
to create a legal perpetuity. As a matter of law and reason, this
instrument cannot bind its posterity.
according to the present writer, "We the people" is a legal non-entity
with respect to making a contract or entering any binding agreement
whatsoever. "We the people" is no more than an abstract term for
a loose conglomeration of independently acting individuals. It has
no intrinsic reality. It is merely a slogan devoid of content. Exactly
who is "we the people?" Who signs for and assumes the responsibility
and liability of "We the people?" Who steps up and bears the burden
of accountability for actions of "We the people?" Where is there
any accountable, responsible, liable individual or group of individuals
who physically signed or co-signed an instrument and took upon themselves
the burdens of its performance?
And still further,
in the particular events under discussion, those men who allegedly
established an agreement binding upon not only several millions
unknown to them (those millions having had no voice or participation
whatsoever), but also upon their unborn posterity for all time to
come — met and negotiated on behalf of their unknowable clients
in secret, and made an oath of secrecy. They left no record of their
proceedings, and they signed no document purporting to be an agreement
even among themselves, let alone millions of unknowable others and
posterity for all time to come.
That "We the
people" have put up with this nonsense for so long is truly an absurdity
that boggles my mind.
Referring now
to The
Politically Incorrect Guide to American History, by Tom
A statement
by the Wisconsin legislature in 1859 said, "Resolved, that the government
formed by the Constitution of the United States was not the exclusive
or final judge of the extent of the powers delegated to itself (I
ask, delegated by whom?); but that, as in all other cases of
a compact among parties having no common judge,
each party has an equal right to judge for itself, as well of
infractions, as of the mode and measure of redress. The individual
states, being sovereign and independent, have the unquestionable
right to judge of the Constitution's infractions; and that a
positive defiance of those sovereignties, of all unauthorized acts
done or attempted to be done under color of that instrument, is
the rightful remedy."
Thus I conclude
that the maximum possible validity of the Constitution — notwithstanding
my understanding and belief that it has no validity whatsoever —
is that of a compact among parties having no common judge.
just as the state of Wisconsin is an independent sovereignty in
relation to the United States, so also am I as an individual. If
I am not recognized as an individual sovereignty, then I am a nullity,
for all purposes of law and reason a non-living being, an entity
to be dealt with as an object or a piece of inanimate property.
And therefore,
just as the remedy of Wisconsin is "positive defiance," so also
is positive defiance my remedy as a sovereign individual.
The foregoing
notwithstanding, my understanding and belief is that the Constitution
is of no authority over me, or anyone. The authority of State emanates
from the barrel of a gun.
I maintain
that it is the right of any individual person to reject and renounce
a government which violates his moral conscience. I maintain that
it is my personal right, in this very body, here and now, to ignore
the State, and to refuse participation in its actions which violate
humanity and life itself. I also declare that the same is my intention
insofar as refusal to pay direct tax to any nation-state. There
can be no treason if one's first loyalty is to humanity and to life
itself. Human life is above Nation-State. Personal conscience and
individual moral sovereignty is above State sovereignty. How can
the question of treason arise when one refuses to murder innocent
women and children? He who claims self ownership can never commit
treason because the State cannot own him. He is not the property
of the State.
Believing the
American State to be a criminal operation of nigh incomprehensible
scale, and having executed no contract by which it has any jurisdiction
over my life, I declare it is my right to renounce and depart from
it without obligation. Like the Hopi, I believe the laws of the
Great Spirit (for me, the Law of Truth and Nonviolence) are of a
higher order than any man-made political law. Pursuant to the application
of reason, common sense, mental purification through self-observation
(far to go here), conscience, and the felt presence of Love, my
highest duty is to do no harm. This means I must not support
war in any manner, directly or indirectly through payment of taxes.
"He who
distrusts freedom in others loses his moral right to it." ~ Rabindranath
"Civil disobedience
becomes a sacred duty when the State becomes lawless and corrupt."
~ Mohandas Gandhi
- The United
States has forcibly taken from me, under penalty of my liberty,
the product of my labor.
- It has used
this product of my labor, taken from me by force, to execute massive
crimes against humanity in my name usurped from me. These crimes
are too numerous to account. A few of them include deliberate, calculated,
cold-blooded mass murder of innocent, non-combatant civilians including
women and children; massive destruction of the infrastructure of
civilized societies, resulting in untold suffering and death; long
term poisoning of earth's ecosystem and food-water supply with effluence
of war, such as depleted uranium and Agent Orange; massive destruction
of local ecologies upon which civilians depend for life and livelihood;
massive direct destruction of livestock and crops, leading to suffering
and death of human beings; deliberately fomented and supported war,
revolution and genocide in foreign lands for its own purposes of
domination. Other abuses are discussed elsewhere in the text of
the booklet of which this is part.
- It has used
this product of my labor, forcibly removed from me, to undertake
assassinations and murder in the course of overthrowing foreign
governments. It has further employed these funds for the illegal
imprisonment, torture, degradation and murder of innocent civilians,
without charge, and without habeas corpus.
- It has used
my taxes paid under coercion of threat of force to conduct weapons
experiments with poisonous chemical and radioactive substances on
its own unwitting citizens, some of whom died as a result. This
is premeditated murder.
- It has used
my taxes paid under threat to my liberty to experiment with pesticides
on pregnant women, resulting in damage and death to the unborn.
- It has conscripted
me to military service and dispatched me as a participant in an
aggressive war against a foreign country of no palpable threat to
the United States — a war in which millions of people were murdered.
This violates my right not to kill and not to support killing.
- It has used
the product of my labor forcibly taken from me under penalty of
liberty to manufacture, deploy and drop napalm bombs upon innocent
women and children living in grass huts in non-combatant Cambodia,
dispatching hundreds of thousands of souls to an incendiary death.
This is a grotesque crime against humanity.
- It has used
tax payments forcibly extracted from me to build, maintain and operate
a reported seven hundred military bases around the world, doing
thereby immense ecological damage, disturbing the peace, destabilizing
societies and causing the flames of hatred against America to burn
ever hotter in more and more places.
- It has used
the product of my labor taken from me under palpable threat of force
to execute certain specific "war crimes" and "crimes against humanity"
as defined by the UN, including but not limited to the following:
Targeting of
foreign leaders in "decapitation" strikes
Targeting civilian populations and civilian infrastructure with
by intentionally directing attacks upon civilians and hospitals,
medical centers, residential neighborhoods, electricity stations,

employed it in the execution of crimes against humanity, but it
has also violated my human rights and my conscience as being done
in my name and with my money, in ways listed below, among events
too numerous to account. The overwhelming force of government being
beyond my capacity to resist, this is a clear violation of my person,
as well as utter degradation of humanity itself.

Violations and subversions of the Charter of the UN and international
law, both a part of the "Supreme Law of the Land" under Article
VI of the Constitution, in an attempt to commit with impunity crimes

and to create a stockpile thereof sufficient to destroy all of humanity.
By forcibly
taking from me the product of my labor, under penalty of loss of
liberty and confiscation of property, and employing these funds
in execution of war crimes and crimes against humanity, the government
has made it impossible for me to earn my livelihood without thereby
becoming an accomplice to murder. This is an abomination, a violation
of life itself.
*In addition
to these violations of humanity and of conscience the government
has violated my natural and human rights in other ways too numerous
to account. A few incidents are listed below as "tip of the iceberg"
- Classifying
documents as "secret" to remove them from public view, their contents
and actions described therein having been financed by the public
- Manipulation
and falsification of government statistics on employment, commerce,
money supply, public debt.
- Keeping a
double set of accounts for government financial operations, one
being obscured from public view
- Diversion
of the Social Security Trust Fund to general government operating
- Creating
and operating sub-rosa "off-budget" government operations.
- Using the
monetary authority of the Federal Reserve to print new money which
depreciates the currency and robs the people of their savings, as
well as permitting war finance without taxes.
- Using banking
regulations to prevent the free movement of capital and to spy on
- Issue Executive
Orders to authorize the President – at his sole recognizance of
"National Emergency" — to seize property, organize and control the
means of production, seize commodities, restrict travel, take control
of the stock market, institute rationing, and more …
- Using the
powers of Eminent Domain to transfer property to the hands of favored
- Using the
powers of regulation and monopoly to advance the business interests
of large corporate contributors at the expense of the public welfare.
- Denying by
law and regulation my freedom to contract; defining the terms thereof
as legal only in Federal Reserve Notes, a medium of depreciating
value; and imposing other strictures on the freedom to contract
on mutually agreeable terms in free and voluntary exchange .
- Obstructing
my right to free and peaceful enjoyment of my property by imposing
ubiquitous and onerous regulation of nonsensical building codes,
ridiculous and counter-productive safety regulations, and everywhere
posting regulations and limits of action under the guise of health
and welfare.
- By operation
of the "Plunge Protection Team" and "Economic Stabilization Fund,"
intervene directly in stock and commodity markets to favor the government
agenda and favored clients.
- Using government
(public) funds to finance huge developments that profit a few at
the cost of massive destruction of the ecology of the human commons.
- In an act
of outright theft, confiscating all the privately held gold of US
citizens in 1933, which included the property of my parents' generation,
and maintaining to this day the executive authority to repeat this
grand larceny.
- In an act
of outright chicanery and breach of faith, abrogating the redemption
of dollars into gold by foreign governments, thereby initiating
world wide economic instability and loss of faith in the US since
the order by Nixon in 1971, with effect upon my personal livelihood.
- Forced payroll
deductions for Social Security, a trust now on the road to bankruptcy.
- Obstructing
my right to educate my children as I see fit; instead, subjecting
them to government brainwashing and outright falsification and censorship
of textbooks.
- Made it quite
impossible to lead a decent, quiet, productive life in any ordinary
sense. Any person of integrity must devote most of his energy to
protecting himself from direct predation of the State upon his property
and common facilities of life — and if he be of morally compassionate
character, he must devote whole of life work to resisting the State's
lust for its hideous foreign wars and exploitations of the rest
of humanity.
- Breach and
violation of my substantive rights to control my own life and property,
to wit:
Unimpeded right
to life, liberty and property
Freedom of speech and press
Right of Habeas Corpus
Right to trial by jury
Freedom to travel
Freedom to educate my children as I see fit
Unimpeded right to own and operate my own business
Right to defend myself, including the right to bear arms
Right to security of my home and papers against government intrusion
Right not to be spied upon.
The government
has perverted justice and the public morality into such grotesque
forms as to be unrecognizable by a rational man with a conscience.
The preceding list is by no means exhaustive. I doubt that I would
live long enough to complete a full tabulation.
This government
is an abomination so vile, corrupt, vicious, destructive and murderous
that it is unfit to exist. It has become the single greatest threat
to survival of the human species. As will be set forth, I renounce
"I am sending
a voice, Great Spirit, forgetting nothing you have made
the stars of the universe and the grasses of earth." ~ Nicholas
Black Elk
For a time
beyond memory of people now living, the government of the United
States has committed a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing
the object of reducing to absolute subordination and servitude the
individuals subject to its power. It has methodically undermined
and abrogated its foundation documents, comprising the Declaration
of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It has
systematically violated established and long standing principles
of the international community of nations. It has committed heinous
crimes against humanity and its own citizens as partially listed
in my Statement of Abuses and Violations. It has so perverted the
precepts of justice, liberty, public morality and human rights as
to make them unrecognizable to a rational man with a conscience.
Sincere respect
for my fellow human beings – brothers and sisters during this earthly
sojourn — demands that I declare the causes which impel my severance
of relations with the government of United States, and my assumption
of an equal and independent station free from the domination and
subordination to which I have been subjected. These causes are enumerated
as Statement of Abuses and Violations in that certain booklet authored
by me under the title Experiments in Moral Sovereignty — Notes
of an American Exile, by this reference incorporated herein
and made a part hereof.
I hold these
to be self evident truths: that all people are endowed at birth
with equal, inalienable and independent rights, among which are
sole possession of their own life, liberty and the seeking of happiness
in their own way. That to secure these rights, associations may
be formed among humans, deriving their just delegations of responsibility
from the full consensus of their members; that it is the right of
any member to secede from any such association without reason given,
to cease all relations of any nature whatsoever, and either to abstain
from or to create or join different associations which adopt such
precepts and principles, and organize their responsibilities in
such form, as to their members shall seem most likely to effect
their safety, enterprise and happiness. ~ by Jeff Knaebel
does not exist if not exercised"
We have lost control of our lives to a force we cannot see, cannot
reckon with, and have no influence over. It is far away while simultaneously
all-pervasive. We must take back control of our lives. To do this
we must take back personal responsibility for our human duties to
family and community. We must not abrogate our responsibilities
to faceless unaccountable institutions.
I add my
breath to your breath
that our days may be long on the earth
that the days of our people may be long
that we may be one person
May our Mother bless you with life
May we finish our roads together

The removal of the tax, known as the IOF, will take effect from Wednesday and removes a key defence measure Brazil had put up in late 2009 to prevent a surge in hot money inflows after developed nations loosened their monetary policies to stimulate their economies.
Brazil over the past few years has fiercely criticised loose monetary policy in the United States for creating a "tsunami" of liquidity that flooded into emerging markets, inflating their currencies and rendering their industries uncompetitive.
After the 2008 financial crisis, the U.S. Federal Reserve sought to jump-start the economy by pumping large amounts of liquidity into the markets, effectively weakening the dollar against currencies such as the Brazilian real.
Finance Minister Guido Mantega said the policy was tantamount to a currency war but U.S. officials denied the charge, arguing a strong U.S. recovery would be good for the world.
"Today, with the market returning to normal and the (U.S. Federal Reserve) likely reducing its expansionist policy, we can remove this barrier we had placed," Mantega said in a hastily arranged press conference yesterday.
Related: Brazilian Bankers To Go On 'Indefinite Strike' Following Labour Dispute: Report
Related: Rumours Of Welfare Cessation Spark Bank Run In Brazil
While the government had previously advocated a weaker currency to help Brazilian exports, there are growing concerns that a sharp depreciation of the real could worsen inflation, which is already hovering near the top of the central bank's target range.
The real has already lost 7.6 percent in the past three months, making it the worst performance among the seven major Latin American currencies tracked by Bloomberg.
In April, Brazil eliminated the so-called IOF tax on certain types of working capital for infrastructure, on operations to finance the purchase or leasing of capital goods, and on roads and railways concessions, among other infrastructure projects.
Analysts say the reduction of capital controls will likely help the real rebound from near four-year lows and ease pressure on inflation, which has turned into a political liability for President Dilma Rousseff as she prepares to run for re-election next year.

This is your property ?
Azahara Playa is situated in Los Cristianos on the south west coast of Tenerife, a mere 15km from Tenerife South airport. It was formerly an apart/hotel and has excellent facilities. As the name suggests it was built to enjoy the views of Playa de las Vistas, which was created with the soft, golden sand shipped from the Sahara dessert. Unlike many of the original volcanic black sand beaches, this golden beach is ideal for family swims and sunbathing. The apartment balcony looks onto the pool, the ocean and Mount Chayofita.
This spacious apartment is a mere 150 metres from the beach and a lift takes you from and down to street level, Calle Finlandia. The other side of the hotel is the Mencey Shopping Centre including an excellent supermarket at 50 metres distance, open from 9am to 9pm (6 days a week). It is superb to shop here if you wish to eat in, as it has a delicatessen, fresh bread bakery and extensive fish counter. A walk to old Los Cristianos takes via San Telmo, a lively terraced district with many local bars and restaurants with spectacular views to the sea. The cuisine on offer ranges from local tapas bars and cafes offering English food to Chinese or Italian. A must is the Japanese Teppanyaki restaurant which you can walk to from the apartment. Not only is the food excellent but the performance of the chef cooking at the table is a sheer delight. On certain days of the week many bars have live music and dancing.
Immediately after San Telmo you will pass the road to the port. Down from here several fresh fish stores are at the entrance, whilst in the port itself are many booths advertising numerous boat trips. Turning up the hill from the port will bring you into the charming and quaint streets of pedestrianised Los Cristianos. There is a large selection of clothes and artisan shops and as you walk onto the square all the main Spanish banks are represented including a branch of Barclays. All this is less than 10 minutes walk from Ocean Azahara Playa.
The bedroom contains 2 single beds and sliding mirror fitted wardrobes. The living/dining area has two comfortable single sofa beds, coffee table, dining table and 4 chairs. The fitted kitchen has a 4 ring hob, microwave oven, fridge with large freezer compartment, toaster and kettle. We also provide TV, DVD and CD/radio player. Guests are welcome to bring their own favourite DVDs and CDs. The apartment also has an iron and ironing board. The bathroom contains a bath with overhead shower, sink and WC. The balcony has a table and 4 chairs with an extendable clothes dryer. There is a laundrette at 2 minutes walk in the direction of San Telmo, which offers service washes.
Smoking is only allowed on the balcony. Linen and towels our provided.

This means that you can walk along the beach front in either direction, either into the posh bit of Playa de las Americas where you will find all the 5 star hotels and very nice bars and restaurants or in the other direction into the more family oriented Los Cristianos with its selection of bars and restaurants, a lot of which have nightly entertainment.

- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Computing Services currently provides two web-based authentication systems, WebISO and WebLogin. The new WebLogin service was introduced in spring 2011, and has since grown to handle over 70% of all web-based logins at CMU. As such, we are now at an appropriate point to begin planning the phase out of the older WebISO service.
If you log into a service that uses WebISO authentication, no further action is required. If you own a service that uses WebISO authentication, please continue reading.
The phase out of WebISO will begin January 1, 2013 when Computing Services will stop integrating new systems with the WebISO service. Between January 1, 2013 and August 1, 2013, we will work closely with owners of applications still using WebISO to transition them to the new WebLogin service. On August 1, 2013, we expect to decommission the WebISO service.
Computing Services will offer free consultations to assist you in migrating from WebISO to WebLogin, and other related identity technology issues. Please see http://www.cmu.edu/computing/web/authenticate/web-login/shib.html for more information.

The Hungary Games pálinka
Very strong pálinkas are called "fence-jaggers" and are a good way to indicate one's Hungarian origins. Many Hungarians tell tales of making their Polish friends drink pálinka and watching them go down.
"Hungary in Row With EU Over Tax Exemption on National Booze," Emerging Europe blog, WSJ.com, March 14
Pálinka is traditionally made from plums, apples, pears, cherries or apricots...

Gurmukh is the co-founder and co-director of Golden Bridge Nite Moon, Los Angeles' and New York City's premier center for the study and practice of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation. Since being baptized 42 years ago with the Sikh spiritual name that means "One who helps people across the world ocean," Gurmukh has dedicated her life to fulfilling her namesake. For more than four decades, students in Los Angeles and from around the world have sought out her classes in Kundalini Yoga, Meditation, and Pre- and Post-Natal care. She and Gurushabd have been married for 29 years, and they have a 28-year-old daughter who also lives in Los Angeles.
Name is needed for leaving comments. Email and website are options.
I have this question. This video starts with a 24 minute vigorous shaking. Does anybody know how long should it be if you want to shorten the time of the shaking? 12 mins?
Gurmukh is extraordinary. Just had a chance to learn from her at the International Yoga Festival in India.
Of course like most of us in California,I heard of Gurumukh from the celeb's that she helped ,but then I got her VHS tape of Kundalini yoga and I loved it,I had done Hatha etc. but she opened me to a new yoga practice,then when I moved to Colorado I was introduced to Snatam Kaur's music! I listen to it everyday and my family does Kundalini yoga now!! Namaste
Amazing woman
love her at Golden Bridge!
I'm just reading and transmitting the content of her book to my class. What i read in their eyes was gratitudine and happiness, thanks to "8 human talents". Tks to all. Tks god to my teacher jesus and Yogiji. Sat nam
she is lovely and original and traditional master!
I love the both inspiring - thank-you Edye Collier
There is no one like her!! Most beautiful and Divine soul!! My mentor
love her DVD's and find hr to kind and full of wisdom
I was first introduced to kundalini yoga by someone who had mentioned Gurumukh's wonderful DVD!! as I live in ontario That is as close to Gurumukh I can get. I wish she lived in my neighbour hood!! Now i live in montreal still not close enough to her. so I am very dependant on all her DVD's on Kundalini!! SHE is still the best I will ever have in my life soooo lucky to at least have her DVD's I would have loved to join her classes!! or even to have met her. but We live too far away Oh well maybe she will move to my neighbour hood one day!!! that would be amazing!! Oh well thank god for her DVD's at least I can follow her that wAY! Much Love to all!! and thank you Gurumukh on behalf of the world For your precious gift to us all!! Thank you~
It's a blessing to learn yoga from Gurmukh, as a student or teacher of yoga.
Gurmuch my beloved teacher and inspiration,for ever and ever.
Esther Fasja
Gurmukh was my introduction to Kundalini Yoga many years ago. She remains my favorite teacher; an inspiration
Gurmukh is a fantastic teacher and inspirational human being
is the best yoga teacher in the world she teaches the best kundalini yoga !
I have no words for what i experience I feel myself moving reading myself for the next level I am leveling up!!
Great for a first Lesson in Kundalini. When I bought this years ago for my spinal problems I had no idea how popular it would be. Gurmukh is a treasure and now my 8 year old daughter loves doing these exercises with me. It moves along through each of the exercises fairly quick so it keeps us both interested without tiring us out. We Love It!
I come here all the time and am very happy with your updates, Thank you!
Beautiful, heavenly
I love gurmukh! Everything she does is qualtity- from her books to her dvd's to her classes. This is a really fun read with some spiritual stories, and interesting perspectives on the chakras. There is lots in here to use for your personal practice
This is my favorite Kundalini yoga dvd. It's tough just like all of her classes but really worth it. The video is shot in Hawaii in a beautiful location. For the price, its an awesome buy.

Source: Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship
It has now been more than a year since the United States Congress restarted efforts to overhaul the nation's immigration laws. Despite expected resistance from conservatives, the effort looked promising initially, with strong support from business, labor and President Obama. It was disappointing news for many when John Boehner, Speaker of the House of U.S. Representatives, conceded last week in a news conference that it is going to be politically difficult to move the overhaul forward this year.
Maybe all is not lost yet. As often happens on dozens of federal policy issues, if timing and politics make achieving national consensus impossible, there is still hope at the state and local level. Last week, Michigan governor Rick Snyder surprised many with the announcement of a creative plan to "fix Detroit" with smart immigrants by proposing a visa program that would attract 50,000 high-skill immigrants over five years.
In the context of waning political capital for the issue on Capitol Hill, this municipal immigration plan was seen as a bold move. After all, Detroit is not known as America's most attractive immigrant destination.
The plan seeks to attract people with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities in the sciences, arts or business, whether already in the United States or from abroad. Critics suggest the skilled immigrants selected will not remain in Detroit, rather that they will move at the first chance to more entrepreneurial-friendly locations in the region, such as Chicago. There are also arguments that growth from entrepreneurial immigration will come at the expense of native-born Americans.
But supporters, including Mayor Mike Duggan and a significant portion of the city's business community, think this immigration plan could help Detroit to rebuild itself beyond overcoming bankruptcy and point to the fact that jobs in the city's R&D and high-tech sectors are currently going unfilled. Even the same New York Times op-ed that raises questions about Snyder's plan admits, "Combined with other efforts by city officials to stimulate education, the arts, technology and manufacturing, a jolt of immigrant energy could help resuscitate a city that many have given up for dead."
While final details, approval and effective implementation remain to be seen, one positive possible scenario is already looming on the horizon: a race among governors to attract skilled immigrants to their locations. It would not be the first time impatient Governors bypass stalemate in Washington, DC. As I have written about written multiple times, America needs a startup visa and needs to stop turning away the world's smartest entrepreneurs and job creators who still view the country as the "shining city upon a hill." The big question remains whether or not state action is able to embarrass Washington to get on with making it happen.
Capitol Hill
Rick Snyder,

St. Thomas School Summer Camps
8300 NE 12th St., Medina, WA 98039
Just off Hwy 520, 84th Ave Exit near the Overlake Golf Course.
Pacific Science Center and St. Thomas School are teaming up once again to bring you summer camps with a science and technology focus. Campers will explore science fundamentals, new technologies and the natural world in LEED® Gold certified, aesthetically stunning and unique learning spaces such as a science lab, technology center and open concept plazas. Join us for a premier experience of investigation, imagination and inspiration.
Drop-Off & Pick-Up
Morning Drop-Off takes place at the east entrance of the school. From 12th St, turn into the church driveway (adjacent to St. Thomas School), follow the driveway as it wraps around the school and opens into a large parking lot.
Drop-off times vary for each camp; check your confirmation material for the specific start time. On Monday, please walk your child up to the camp teachers. Other days, teachers will be waiting on the sidewalk for curb-side drop off.
Afternoon Pick-Up
Camp end times are staggered to accommodate the large number of campers. Please check your confirmation material or with your camper's teacher for the specific end time. Pick-up takes place in the same location as drop-off. If you forget your Kid Code at pick-up, you must show photo identification.
We allow a 10 minute grace period for picking up your camper; your child will then be placed in extended day care for a $12 fee.
Kid Code
At pick-up you will be asked the Kid Code you selected at registration. This code functions as a password; share this code only with anyone authorized to pick up your child.
This is a security measure to ensure all campers leave with authorized adults. Camp staff will release campers only to those who know the Kid Code, or who show picture identification that matches names listed on the medical form. If you forget your Kid Code before camp begins, ask the teachers as you drop off your child on the first day of camp.
Emergency Contact Information
In case of emergency, or to contact camp staff, call (206) 495-8512
We may also be reached by calling Pacific Science Center:
- Registration Office: (206) 443-2925, available M-F 8:30 a.m.- 4:30 p.m.
- Reception: (206) 443-2001, available daily 8 a.m.- 6 p.m.
Extended Day Care
Morning extended day care is not offered at this location.
Afternoon extended day care is available until 6 p.m.
- Cost: $50 per 5 day week, $40 per 4 day week, or $12 daily
- Please provide an extra snack for your child if you are using extended day care.
- For unplanned extended day care use, please inform the teacher in the morning and pay with cash or check when picking up your child.
What to Bring to Camp
Campers should bring the following each day:
- Two snacks (Note: Please provide an extra snack if your child is staying for extended day care)
- Sack lunch (Camper Lunch Program is not offered at this location.)
- Water bottle
- Any medications listed on your medical form
We expect children to attend each day of camp (except for illness) and to arrive and depart at the scheduled time.
Children arriving late or leaving early must be escorted by camp staff. Parents must wait for camp staff; this process can take over 15 minutes. If you plan to pick up early, notify your child's teacher in advance and pick up your child before 3 p.m. After this time, camp staff may be unavailable to escort your child.
Communication During Camp
Each afternoon, we will send a daily camp summary from your camper's teachers to the email address provided at registration.
Parent Presentations
Field Trips
Some camps have a field trip during the week. Look for more information in your daily parent letter.

Company: ExchangeNet
Year Started: 1994
Start-Up Costs: $20,000
1997 Projections: $1 million plus
Most teenagers work part-time jobs for minimum wage. Not Michael Krause. He's busy at the helm of Cleveland's largest local Internet service provider, a company he founded with older brother Daniel.
"It was Michael's idea to start the business," Daniel says. "He approached me because he didn't have any money-he was 14 at the time."
With his brother's support, Michael jumped into the game before the Internet was popular. A smart move: ExchangeNet now handles roughly 7,000 corporate and public accounts. But that's hardly enough for the brothers, who have their eyes on the future-and on the 2.2 million potential customers in the Cleveland area.
These entrepreneurs relish their success-and attribute it in part to their youth. Says Michael, "Clients are impressed when they see [young people who know] what they're talking about."
