African Americans, Peace and the Plight of Palestinians
African Americans, Peace and the Plight of Palestinians
by Cynthia McKinney
Former Georgia congresswoman and recent Green Party
presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney was scheduled to give the following
address in Damascus, Syria at a Conference to commemorate the 60th Anniversary
of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. She notes that this year also
marks "the 60th year that the Palestinian people have been denied their Right
of Return, enshrined in that Universal Declaration." However, Delta Airlines
personnel prevented Ms. McKinney from boarding her flight. She describes the
incident as "a dispute over my paperwork." - The editors
A funny thing happened to me while at the Atlanta airport on
my way to the Conference: I was not allowed to exit the country.
I do believe that it was just a misunderstanding. But the insecurity
experienced on a daily basis by innocent Palestinians is not. Innocent
Palestinians are trapped in a violent, stateless twilight zone imposed on them
by an international order that favors a country reported to have completed its
nuclear triad as many as eight years ago, although Israel has remained
ambiguous on the subject. President Jimmy Carter informed us that Israel
had as many as 150 nuclear weapons, and Israel's allies are among the most
militarily sophisticated on the planet. Military engagement, then, is
untenable. Therefore the exigency of diplomacy and international
Palestinian human rights taboo inside the United States Government and its
The Palestinians should at least be able to count on the protections of the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights. What is happening to Palestinians
in Gaza right now, subjected to an Israeli-imposed blockade, has drawn the
attention of the United Nations Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon, who noted that
over half of the civilians in Gaza are children. Even The Los Angeles
Times criticized Israel's lockdown of Gaza that is keeping food, fuel, and
medicine from civilians. Even so, Israel stood fast by its decision to
seal Gaza's openings. But where are the voices of concern coming from the
corridors of power inside the United States? Is the subject of
Palestinian human rights taboo inside the United States Government and its
government-to-be? I hope not.
McKinney's Planned Remarks to the
Right of Return Congregation, Damascus, Syria:
Thank you to our hosts for inviting me to participate in this most important
and timely First Arab-International Congregation for the Right of Return.
Words are an insufficient expression of my appreciation for being remembered as
one willing to stand for justice in Washington, D.C., even in the face of
tremendously difficult pressures.
Former Prime Minister Tun Mahathir, thank you for including me in the Malaysian
Peace Organization's monumental effort to criminalize war, to show the horrors
of the treatment of innocent individuals during the war against and occupation
of Iraq by the militaries and their corporate contractors of Britain, Israel, and
the United States. Thank you for standing up to huge international
economic forces trying to dominate your country and showing an impressionable
woman like me that it is possible to stand up to "the big boys" and
win. And thank you for your efforts to bring war criminal, torturer,
decimator of the United States Constitution, the George W. Bush Administration,
to justice in international litigation.
Delegates and participants, I must declare that at a time when scientists agree
that the climate of the earth is changing in unpredictable and possibly
calamitous ways, such that the future of humankind hangs in the balance, it is
unconscionable that we have to dedicate this time to and focus our energies on
policies that represent a blatant and utter disregard for human rights and
self-determination and that represent in many respects, a denial of human life,
that the Universal Declaration forgot."
In the same year as Palestinians endured a series of massacres and expulsions, the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights became international law. And while
the United Nations is proud that the Declaration was flown into Outer Space
just a few days ago on the Space Shuttle, if one were to read it and then land
in the Middle East, I think it would be clear that Palestine is the place that
the Universal Declaration forgot.
Sadly, both the spirit of the Universal Declaration for Human Rights and the
noblest ideals of the United Nations are broken. This has occurred in
large measure due to policies that emanate from Washington, D.C. If we
want to change those policies, and I do believe that we can, then we have to
change the underlying values of those who become Washington's policy
makers. In other words, we must launch the necessary movement that puts
people in office who share our values.
We need to do this now more than ever because, sadly, Palestine is not
Washington's only victim. Enshrined in the Universal Declaration is the
dignity of humankind and the responsibility of states to protect that
dignity. Yet, the underlying contradictions between its words and what
has become standard international practice lay exposed to the world this year
when then-United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour
"In the course of this year, unprecedented efforts must be made to ensure
that every person in the world can rely on just laws for his or her protection.
In advancing all human rights for all, we will move towards the greatest
fulfillment of human potential, a promise which is at the heart of the
Universal Declaration."
How insulting it was to hear those words coming from her, for those of us who
know, because it was she who, as Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal
Tribunal for Rwanda, willfully participated in the cover-up of an act of terror
that resulted in the assassination of two democratically-elected Presidents and
that unleashed a torrent of murder and bloodletting in which one million souls
were vanquished. That sad episode in human history has become known as
the Rwanda Genocide. And shockingly, after the cover-up, Louise Arbour
was rewarded with the highest position on the planet, in charge of Human
Washington's only victim."
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said that justice delayed is justice
denied. And 60 years is too long to wait for justice.
The Palestinian people deserve respected self-determination,
protected human rights, justice, and above all, peace.
On the night before his murder, Dr. King announced that he was happy to be
living at the end of the 20th Century where, all over the world, men and women
were struggling to be free.
Today, we can touch and feel the results of those cries, on the African
Continent where apartheid no longer exists as a fact of law. A concerted,
uncompromising domestic and international effort led to its demise.
And in Latin America, the shackles of U.S. domination have been broken.
In a series of unprecedented peaceful, people-powered revolutions, voters in
Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador, Nicaragua, and most
recently Paraguay used the power of the political process to materially change
their countries' leadership and policy orientation toward the United
States. Americans, accustomed to the Monroe Doctrine which proclaimed
U.S. suzerainty over all politics in the Western Hemisphere, must now think the
unthinkable given what has occurred in the last decade.
Voters in Cote d'Ivoire, Haiti, Spain, and India also took matters clearly in
their hands to make "a clean break" from policies that were an
affront to the interests of the majority of the people in those countries.
In country after country, against tremendous odds, people stood up and took
their fates in their hands. They did what Mario Savio, in the 1960s,
asked people in the United States to do. These people-powered, peaceful
revolutions saw individuals put their bodies against the levers and the gears
and the wheels of the U.S. imperial machine and they said to the owners if you
don't stop it, we will. And I know that people of conscience inside my
country can do it, too: especially now that the engines of imperial
oppression are running out of gas.
Even though the Democratic Party, at the Convention that nominated Barack
Obama, denied its microphone to Former President Jimmy Carter because of his
views on Palestine, let me make it clear that Former President Carter is not
the only person inside the United States who believes that peace with justice
is possible in Palestine.
Inside the United States, millions who are not of Arab descent, disagree
vehemently with the policy of our government to provide the military and
civilian hardware that snuffs out innocent human life that is also Arab.
nominated Barack Obama denied its microphone to Former President Jimmy Carter
because of his views on Palestine."
Millions of Americans do not pray to Allah, but recognize that it is an
inalienable right of those who do to live and pray in peace wherever they
are--including inside the United States.
Even though their opportunities are severely limited, there are millions of
people inside the United States struggling to express themselves on all of
these issues, but whose efforts are stymied by a political process that robs
them of any opportunity to be heard.
And then there are the former elected officials who spoke out for what was
right, for universal application of the Universal Declaration, and who were
roundly condemned and put out of office as a result. My father is one
such politician, punished-kicked out of office--because of the views of his
In my case, I dared to raise my voice in support of the World Conference
Against Racism and against the sieges of Ramallah, Jenin, and the Church of the
Nativity. I raised my voice against the religious profiling in my country
that targets innocent Muslims and Arabs for harassment, imprisonment, financial
ruin, or worse. Yes, I have felt the sting of the special interests since
my entry onto the national stage when, in my very first Congressional campaign,
I refused to sign a pledge committing that I would vote to maintain the
military superiority of Israel over its neighbors, and that Jerusalem should be
its capital city.
Other commitments were on that pledge as well, like
continued financial assistance to Israel at agreed upon levels.
As a result of my refusal to make such a commitment, and just like the old
slave woman, Sojourner Truth, who bared her back and showed the scars from the
lashes meted out to her by her slave master, I too, bear scars from the lashes
of public humiliation meted out to me by the special interests in Washington,
D.C. because of my refusal to tow the line on Israel policy. This
"line" is the policy accepted by both the Democratic and Republican
Party leadership and why they could cooperate so well to coordinate my ouster
from Congress. But I have survived because I come from the strongest
stock of Africans, stolen then enslaved, and yet my people survived. I
know how to never give up, give in, or give out. And I also know how to
learn a good political lesson. And one lesson I've learned is that the
treatment accorded to me pales in comparison to what Palestinian victims still
living in refugee camps face every day of their lives.
The treatment accorded to me pales in comparison to the fact that human life is
at stake if the just-released International Atomic Energy Agency report is true
when it writes that "The only explanation for the presence of these
modified uranium particles is that they were contained in the missiles dropped
from the Israeli planes." What are the health effects of these
weapons, what role did the U.S. military play in providing them or the
technology that underlies them, why is there such silence on this, and most
fundamentally, what is going on in this part of the world that international
law has forgotten?
do more than vote for a slogan of change, we can actually have it."
Clearly, not only the faces of U.S. politicians must change; we must change
their values, too. We, in the United States, must utilize our votes to
effect the same kind of people-powered change in the United States as has been
done in all those other countries. And now, with more people than ever inside
the United States actually paying attention to politics, this is our moment; we
must seize this time. We must become the leaders we are looking for and
get people who share our values elected to Congress and the White House.
Now, I hope you believe me when I say to you that this is not rocket
science. I have learned politics from its best players. And I say
to you that even with the fallibilities of the U.S. system, it is possible for
us to do more than vote for a slogan of change, we can actually have it. But
if we fail to seize this moment, we will continue to get what we've always been
given: handpicked leaders who don't truly represent us.
With the kind of U.S. weapons that are being used in this part of the world,
from white phosphorus to depleted uranium, from cluster bombs to bunker busting
bombs, nothing less than the soul of my country is at stake. But for the
world, it is the fate of humankind that is at stake.
The people in my country just invested their hopes for a better world and a
better government in their votes for President-elect Obama. However,
during an unprecedented two year Presidential campaign, the exact kind of
change we are to get was never fully defined. Therefore, we the people of
the United States must act now with boldness and confidence. We can set
the stage for the kind of change that reflects our values.
"What I am recommending is the creation of a political
movement inside my country that will constitute a surgical strike for global
unemployment and health insecurity are soaring, half of our young people do not
even graduate from high school; college is unaffordable. The middle class
that was invested in the stock market is seeing their life savings stripped
from them by the hour. What we are witnessing is the pauperization of a
country, in much the same way that Russia was pauperized after the fall of the
Soviet Union. There are clear winners and the losers all know who they are.
The attentive public in the United States is growing because of these
conditions. Now is the time for our values to rise because people in the
United States are now willing to listen.
Today we uplift the humanity of the Palestinian people. And what I am
recommending is the creation of a political movement inside my country that
will constitute a surgical strike for global justice. This gathering is
the equivalent of us stepping to the microphone to be heard.
We don't have to lose because we have commitment to the people.
And we don't have to lose because we refuse to compromise our core values.
We don't have to lose because we seek peace with justice and diplomacy over
We don't have to lose.
By committing to do some things we've never done before I'm certain that we can
also have some things we've never had before.
Cynthia McKinney can be contacted at www.allthingscynthiamckinney.com.
Tell it!
This is exactly why I voted for Cynthia McKinney; she is unwavering in her vision for justice. She knows how to make connections between struggles and gives a true message of hope. Throughout this election, I told many who questioned my vote for McKinney that I vote my conscience and my consciousness. She truly represents both for me.
McKinney is a True Champion of Human Rights!
I have long admired Cynthia McKinney. Because she tells it like it is, the Democratic Party of Barack Obama no longer want her around. I registered with the Green Party this past week because of McKinney's courage and Obama's spineless, plkay-it-safe, and race-neutral attitude. People better realize very fast the relationship of American Empire as it relates to racism, oppression and world poverty, not to mention war and violence which are all part and parcel of the same item. Barack Obama has already lied to the naive and gullible American people and will continue the same lawless policies of the Bush administration and keep on pushing the war agenda. Yes, Obama is very able to start a new war on Iran to prove "how tough he is" regarding the use of force. Obama already has shown himself to be a liar in telling Iran to "stop" building a nuclear arsenal. I guess the intellectual-mind of Obama failed to read the IAEA's report which said Iran does not have a nuclear weapons program. Yes, indeed, when Rev. Wright spoke out about the plight of the Palestinians, the media went beserk. They claim the attacks on Wright were about his saying "God damn America" but any one with half a brain knows that the attacks on Wright came from his defense of the Palestinians as to why the Arab world detests the U.S. policies in the Middle East. It is apparent that Obama unlike McKinney has had immediate brain damage in this realm. Barack Obama is a pathetic globalist who is likely to start a war on Iran to please his big-money donors. I call him Barack Fraud Obama. Cynthia McKinney is the real deal, but, in America one has to sell themselves like a street whore to win elections and Obama has already done that. I do not trust Obama and his slick speeches at all. Thank God for Black Agenda Report and for Margaret Kimberly, Paul Street, Glen Ford, and others here who analyze like others only wish they could. Thanks again!
We should accept Obama's limitations. His job is to somewhat maintian the status Quo.This country was founded upon imperialism, greed and exploitation . The country must sustain itself by greed etc. The president's job is to support corporate interest. Mckinney Wright serve a purpose also.Those idealist give us an alternative perspective.
Stand for Something or Fall for Anything
Thanks Miss McKinney for a great article. Thanks to GWB (Great White Blockhead) his war on terror and the news media hootin and hollerin about islamofascism. The world has been sufficiently desensitized which allows Israel to perpetrate the atrocities on Palestinians and get away with it without too much blow back. What the Israel is doing in Gaza is tantamount to GENOCIDE. I do not see how any one can perceive it any other way. Kinda like how Amerikka hemmed us (Black Folks) in from plantations to projects to prisons.
They say if you do not stand for something you will fall for anything. Miss McKinney has stood up and spoke up when others would not. I remember in the aftermath of 911 Miss McKinney was among a small group that stood up in opposition to the screaming to go to war with Iraq (as we all now know was based on a pile of LIES). Did Mr. Obama do that?????? I remember when Miss McKinney called the Bush gangsters on the carpet about war profiting (the FREE FRUAD ZONE called Iraq). Did Mr. Obama do that???? That is why I voted for Miss McKinney in the last election. I did not drink the Obama Kool Aide I voted for Substance over style, Integrity over image and Conviction over charisma.
I just hope that we all stand with Miss McKinney and others on this matter because if we do not the same thing that is happening to the Palestinians can happen to us HERE (think Blackwater and the First Brigade Combat Team of the Third Division US Army North) if you want to know more about this follow this link http://www.uruknet.de/?p=m47519 . I hope we all remember the saying what goes around comes around.

A year and a half ago, she left for the Miss USA competition as an unknown college sophomore.
Next week, Olivia Culpo will return home to Cranston with a superstar boyfriend in Nick Jonas, career advice from Donald Trump and boxes full of "fan art" — paintings and sculptures of Culpo's likeness given to her on a recent trip to Indonesia — waiting for her in her childhood bedroom.
But she'll no longer have a crown. Culpo's beauty pageant reign comes to an end Saturday when she gives up her Miss Universe title at this year's competition in Moscow.
Her immediate plans include flying back to the United States with her family and spending some time relaxing in Edgewood. Then Culpo, 21, wants to pursue the goal that drove her to enter the Miss Rhode Island USA competition: a Hollywood acting career.
"At this point I'm so exhausted, I'll say I need at least a month at home," she says recently in the Manhattan apartment she's been sharing with Miss USA and Miss Teen USA. "I'll be there for a little bit and then I'll be going back and forth between there and L.A. when the pilot season picks up. We'll see what doors open."
Other than playing a small role in the not-yet-released film "The Other Woman," starring Cameron Diaz, Kate Upton and Leslie Mann, and taking a few acting classes, Culpo put her movie ambitions on hold to fulfill her duties as Miss USA and Miss Universe.
Her schedule has included 4:30 a.m. wakeup calls, regular international travel and serving as a spokesperson for HIV/AIDS prevention. The job has been rewarding but challenging, she said.
"Being able to travel and give back, that's the highlight," she says, sitting at her dining room table across from a window overlooking Sixth Avenue and Central Park. "From the outside in, it looks glamorous, but from the inside out, it's not as glamorous as you might think."
Recently back from a 10-day trip to India, Culpo is jetlagged. Heavy makeup can't quite conceal the tiredness around her eyes, and locks of hair have come loose from her braid and fallen onto her face.
The job has afforded her opportunities including the chance to attend movie premieres and fashion shows, serve as a guest co-host on the entertainment news program "Extra" and model for Miss Universe sponsors such as CHI hair products. But she's also experienced some of the downside of being in the spotlight.
Controversy has bookended Culpo's pageant career: After she was crowned Miss USA in June 2012, a rival for that honor, Miss Pennsylvania Sheena Monnin, resigned her title and charged that the pageant was "rigged." A federal judge later ordered Monnin to pay Miss Universe organization co-owner Donald Trump $5 million in damages for the unfounded claims. Then last month, Culpo learned that Indian police had filed a case against her for an unauthorized photo shoot at the Taj Mahal.

"There must be some sort of lesson that God's trying to tell me through both of those occasions," she says after pausing for a few moments.
Culpo has done quite a bit of charity work in her sash and crown. She visited with sick kids in a children's hospital in Russia, rallied against female infanticide in India and volunteered in the kitchen of New York HIV/AIDS service organization GMHC.
She has coped with the serious aspects of the job by trying to keep things in perspective. "You definitely learn that your feeling of comfort is not the priority at all," she says. "It's not about you. It's about making them feel as good as you can."
On a recent trip to New York's Mount Sinai Hospital, Culpo brought along her singer-songwriter boyfriend, Nick Jonas, who played guitar and sang to kids receiving treatment there. "He's just a really amazing person with the biggest heart," Culpo says, softening at mention of the star. "He inspires me on a daily basis, and I think it's important to be with somebody that you know will do that for you."
Tilting her head to the side and smiling widely, she adds, "I definitely enjoy hearing him sing." A musician herself — she plays the cello and sings — she says "why not?" when asked if they might record a duet.
Despite her packed schedule, she's been able to see Jonas regularly since they started dating last summer. They've been spotted kissing at the U.S. Open tennis tournament, sharing a sushi dinner in Las Vegas on his 21st birthday and walking through the airport after visiting his parents in Dallas. "We make time," she says. "You have to make time."
In August, Culpo brought Jonas home to meet her family, dine on clam cakes and chowder at Iggy's and attend services at St. Paul Roman Catholic Church in Cranston with her mom, Susan Curran Culpo. "When you think of a child star, you get scared and just want to run in the other direction," Curran Culpo says in a later interview. "But he's a very polite young man and he seems to really care about her."
Dad approves, too. "For someone as famous as he is, he's just so normal," says her father, Peter Culpo, adding that he and his wife frequently chat with Jonas by email.
The relationship — dubbed Nolivia by the couple's fans — has been one of the only carefree aspects of Culpo's life lately, her mother says. "She's had a great experience as Miss Universe, but has she had a lot of fun like most 21-year olds? I don't think so."
Culpo describes three goals for the near future: Finish her college degree. Continue doing philanthropic work. And land some acting roles. "I need a job so I don't have to sleep on the couch," she says.
Before she left for Russia, Culpo sat down with her boss, Donald Trump, to ask for career advice. He encouraged her to go to Hollywood and audition for as many roles as she could, Culpo told her father.
"He told her, keep trying and don't give up," Peter Culpo says. "And if it doesn't work out, he said you'll always have a job with Donald Trump."
Her father expects her to bring the same drive to acting that she brought to her pageant preparations and cello studies. "I've learned to not put any limits on her," he says.
Her mother adds some perspective: "How many former Miss Universes are household names? I don't know," she says.
She dreams that her daughter will attend Williams College in the Berkshires, where she could finish the degree she started at Boston University.
She is also looking forward to seeing her daughter without the false eyelashes she's had to wear nearly every day since becoming Miss USA. And she wants to hear more about the adventures she's had. "I don't even know half of the things she's done," she said. "When she calls me, we talk more about mom-daughter things like how she's feeling."
Other than writing occasional notes in her journal, Culpo hasn't yet been able to reflect on her whirlwind reign. "I think that will come later," she says. "I'm just so wrapped up in it now. But looking back on this … I'm sure I'll be grateful for the experience in ways I can't even fathom at this point because I'm still living it."

But few would call winter in ABQ "hard"; most are not even considered "winter" by many northern transplants! A few 1-2" snows to paralyze the town, some dustings, and over half our storm events as gentle rain - called mujer rains by some (mujer = woman in Spanish) - that's usually it, among mostly cool sun or high clouds.
With no storms in sight for the next week, I'll enjoy the low light and the last of 2012's plant growth.
Deergrass still has some green among the gold; a month ago, it was gold among the green. |
A pink selection of Autumn Sage, nicely protected and now in mostly shade, shows off some. The other foliage, Soft-leafed Yucca and Hairy Mountain Mahogany, remains as green bones. |

It seems like it was not that long ago that we got to see Nokia release the Lumia series on the AT&T network and today, the company announced another update for 900 users. Updates are not a bad thing, but when your handset gets a couple of minor ones a little too often you start to wonder about the stability of your phone. This update, which is based off the feedback from customers since the launch back in April, will address a bug that causes a purple hue on the touch screen with some of the devices. Apparently the hue was only showing up with the touch screen was activated during low light situations. The update will also improve the phones proximity sensor and "other minor adjustments and enhancements" to the Lumia 900.
This update is typically called a "maintenance update", but it appears that Nokia did not want to call it that for whatever reasons. In the mean time, you will not have to wait for this update. It is available for download right now and you can get the update by connecting your phone to the computer with Zune for Windows or Windows Phone 7 Connector for Mac. Granted a purple hue would be quite annoying to see on a touch screen device, so the update will likely be appreciated by users.
There was not that much information about the actually update, including the size of the update or what the other "minor adjustments and enhancements" were, so if you need more information you can check out the support pages for the Nokia Lumia 900. Back in April, shortly after the phone launched, an update was rolled out that corrected a problem that left users with any connection whatsoever. That update went over very well and users continued on looking for more things to enhance.
The Nokia Lumia 900 is one of the first Nokia/Windows Phone powered devices that took off and really started to sell well in the United States. The phone features include 4G LTE connectivity, a 4.3-inch ClearBlack OLED display with an 840×800 pixel resolution and a battery life of 7+ hours. It comes with a mobile hotspot feature, 16GB of internal memory, a 1.4GHz processor and 512MB of RAM. The device also features an 8MP camera, with dual LED flash, on the back side that can record 720p HD video.

My walkway is made of free form slabs of rock. I chose creeping thyme to grow between the cracks to fill in. The new plants are at approx 4" tall. Can they be mowed successfully? Should I let them get settled first. Am afraid of my weed-whacker lawn person - he can be problematic. The only other choice would be dwarf mondo. If I don't wait too long, I can pull and transplant the thyme to my herb garden section, or use it as a ground cover with other plants. Please help. |

text: United States Attorney Richard H. Stephens announced today that Robert Elder Dais of Plano, Texas, formerly a high-ranking executive (Assistant Regional Commissioner for Examination for the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) Southwest Region in Dallas and Assistant District Director for the IRS in New Orleans, Louisiana) for the IRS, pled guilty today in federal court to obstructing or impeding the due administration of the Internal Revenue Laws of the United States, in violation of Title 26, United States Code, Section 7212(a). Dais, age 63, faces a maximum term of imprisonment of three years and a $250,000 fine. Sentencing has been set for June 5, 2001. Dais' offense arose as a result of an IRS sting operation in which tax preparers were approached by a new client (actually an IRS undercover agent) and told that the "taxpayer" owed taxes to the IRS. In 1997 a client/undercover agent approached Dais, who was employed as a tax advisor in private practice at the time, and told Dais that he owed $81,000 in taxes to the IRS. The client/undercover agent told Dais that even though he had sufficient assets to pay the taxes owed, he did not want to pay them. Dais told the client/undercover agent that he could get out of paying all of the taxes owed by lying about his assets and submitting an "Offer in Compromise," a request to the IRS suggesting that the tax liability be settled by IRS accepting a lesser amount than the full amount of taxes owed. Dais completed and submitted this written Offer in Compromise to the IRS on behalf of his client/undercover agent. In papers filed as part of his guilty plea, Dais admitted that at the time he submitted this Offer in Compromise to the IRS, he knew that the information he submitted was incorrect, concealed assets owned by his client/undercover agent, and that the omission of those assets would have a material impact on the willingness of the IRS to accept the Offer in Compromise. Dais also admitted that by preparing and submitting the Offer in Compromise containing the false information to the IRS, as well as by providing false follow-up oral information to the IRS, he acted corruptly in that he hoped to gain an unlawful advantage for his taxpayer client, in connection with an offer to compromise civil or criminal tax liability. United States Attorney Stephens praised the exemplary investigative work of the United States Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation. Assistant United States Attorney Phillip C. Umphres is prosecuting the case. # # # |

Student Loan Process
Information Disclosure
When a student borrows money through the Federal Direct Student Loan Program, information is provided by the institution to the National Student Loan Data System, and its authorized users such as guaranty agencies, lenders, and educational institutions.
First Time Students Receiving Direct Loans
In accordance with Federal Student Aid regulations, if you are a first time student at OTC, your student loan disbursement will be delayed for a minimum of 30 days after the semester begins. Therefore, your student loan disbursement will not be included with the initial or first group of disbursements for the semester. A first time borrower is a student who has never received a disbursement of a Federal Student Loan or a student who previously borrowed a Federal Student Loan and successfully repaid the balance to zero.
Federal Direct Student Loan - Required Hours
For fall or spring semester, at least 6 hours is required for student loan. For summer, attending at least 3 hours is required for a student loan. For summer, attending at least 3 hours is required for a student loan. Not meeting this criteria could result in a loss of your Federal Direct Student Loan.
Federal Direct Student Loans - Multiple Disbursements
The Federal Direct Loan disbursements must be made in two equal installments as follows:
Loan Period | Disbursements |
Fall/Spring | one during Fall & one during Spring |
Spring Only | two during spring (one occurring after mid-semester) |
Summer Only | two during summer (one occuring after mid-semester) |

Tag: locating a break
You've heard it before: a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes, it's a thousand dollars…
A great trick from the Pro's:
Whether you've done your own layout, got one from your reseller or even the manufacturer, plans change. The blueprint never really matches the reality of the remodel, and one of the really neat features of the Warmup mats and cables, is that you can adapt to changes in the field easily.
Issues are very rare with electric cable systems, because unlike their hydronic counterpart, they don't move, leak or freeze. But when issues arise, they are 100% of the time related to the time of installation. Once installed properly, systems will work for decades.
That is why taking a few smartphone pictures of the final layout ( as illustrated above) before tiling can save both the contractor and homeowner a lot of aggravation. With a good view of the layout, Warmup utilizes a TDR (Time Delay Reflectometer) to approximate the damage to the cable. The device sends a signal into the cable and traces the distance to the break or damage. With a few pictures, we can help you narrow it down to a tile or two.
Warmup offers all TDR tools and repair kits at no charge and sends them UPS to the job site with the assistance of a professional technician.
Be on the lookout for articles on how to repair your floor heating system with one of our repair kits and the proper use of a TDR meter to locate a break.

Trash cans pick people's pockets. Customers get retail discounts based on their moods. Retailers offer personalized purchase suggestions, just by analyzing everything customers have bought or browsed.
It's a brave new world of customer experience. In the age of big data, predictive modeling, data mining, passive Wi-Fi tracking and personalized marketing are part of the new normal. The question is: Do these technologies represent state of the art marketing and analytics or cross the line from clever to creepy?
The Joke's on Who?
Hey did you hear the one about Target figuring out a teen was pregnant even before her own parents? How about the one involving Nordstrom — and the way it monitored customer movements by using the Wi-Fi signals on their smartphones?
Both stories have been repeated as often as one of those lame "horse walked into a bar" jokes. But they aren't jokes and a lot of people don't find them funny.
No, at a time when trash cans pick (up) people's smartphone Wi-Fi signals and retailers scan customers' faces to deliver personalized marketing messages, the only joke is the idea that privacy still exists.
As Eric Schadt, chair of the Department of Genetics and Genomics Sciences at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, stated in an editorial in the Journal of Nature:
Rapid electronic transactions among individuals and between individuals and entire communities occur on an unprecedented scale, our life stream is continuously digitized and archived-GPS positioning information, cell phone calls, text messages, credit card purchases, e-mails, online social network chatter and even our electronic medical records … Long gone are the days of anonymity and privacy."
Privacy has changed from an expectation to an artifact from the pre-digital age — and all we can do now is grapple with the consequences of this new reality.
Facing the Camera
Remember when someone asked you to smile before taking your picture? Now your image is surreptitiously captured in many ways every day — by digital cameras, video surveillance cameras and electronic imaging devices, on city streets and highways, in apartment buildings, offices and retail stores.
Consumer Reports characterized them as "super spy cams" in a report earlier this year:
High-resolution video cameras monitor all areas in and outside the store. The footage is then stored and catalogued for easy searching. With facial-recognition software, your mug shot can be captured and digitally filed without your knowledge or permission. Ditto for your car's license plate. What's creepy about them: Gaze trackers are hidden in tiny holes in the shelving and detect which brands you're looking at and how long for each. There are even mannequins whose eyes are cameras that detect the age, sex, ethnicity, and facial expressions of passers-by."
What a Pretty Face
Synqera, a Saint Petersburg, Russia-based point-of-sale analytics and loyalty startup founded, delivers customized marketing content for customers at the moment of decision. More specifically, it sells software for checkout devices or computers that can personalize marketing messages based on a customer's gender, age and mood, measured by facial recognition.
How does it work? Synqera uses tablets mounted to kiosks to determine the items in a customer's cart or, based on his appearance, items he may want to buy and uses advanced facial recognition software to analyzes the shopper's facial expressions. It then combines information from the customer's loyalty card with this real-time information about the shopper's age, purchase history and mood. Does a 25-year-old with a history of alcohol purchases look lonely? Maybe a discount on a nice bottle of wine would perk him up — and make a sale.
Synqera began piloting this "intelligent retail technology" that leverages big-data and real-time customer response in July in partnership with Ulybka Radugi, one of Russia's largest cosmetics chains. Filipp Shubin, the company's chief operating officer, told CMSWire.com the company is exploring deals in Europe and the United States and expects to announce another international retail partner in a different retail vertical before Christmas.

My two coworkers and I make ornaments for each of our students every year. We need to make ornies for 60 kiddos. If anyone has any interesting ideas to offer, I'd love to hear them. Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'm not sure where I saw this (probably here!) but you soak the tiny pinecones in water until they close up, then slip them inside of a clear, glass ball. I use around 7 pinecones in each ball. Then, put them in the oven on low heat (about 250) until the pinecones open up again. I put them in muffin tins so that the opening will stay at the top to let the moisture out. Replace the cap and glue a bow at the top of the ball. Kids are curious as to how you got the pinecones inside the balls without breaking them since they will be much larger than the opening of the ball when they open up. If you don't want to spend the money on clear, glass balls, you can make your own. I get the old, nasty looking colored balls at Goodwill. Soak them in water to remove the colored cellophane. Then, soak them in bleach water to remove the metallic stuff inside the balls. Most of it will come off if you shake the bleach water around inside the balls. You can make a brush out of pipe cleaners to help remove stubborn spots. Rinse, then let dry. (The insides don't have to be dry before you put the pinecones inside since they are wet too.) My kindergarten teacher used to make stockings for her classes out of shrinky-dink plastic with the students' names on them. My brother and I still have ours and we are 36 and 38. Good luck with your project! |

The pinecone idea sounds so neat! I don't think we have any pinecones that are small enough, though. Thanks for the great idea. |
One of the cutest ornies one of my kids got from a teacher...many years ago, was a snowman head, made from a cotton round. The kind you use for taking off makeup or nailpolish. Since then I make them every year for the grands and put the year on the back of the hat. You get 50, 80 or 100 rounds in a pkg! For each round, I cut two black felt hats. Run a small bead of tacky glue around the hats ....all but the bottom of the brim. Slip the hat a little less than 1/3 the way down on the cotton round. Then glue to the round. Paint on a face. I have even used marker for the eyes and mouth...just black dots but always use orange puff paint for the nose. These are sooooo simple but every year when I go to the kids houses...there are the snowmen..right in the front! I tried to google..cotton round snowmen, but only came up with one with a hat made from a babysock. Hope this helps. |
If you can find some small styrofoam balls about 1 or 1 1/2 " and kind of crush them into a Hersey;s candy kiss then cover with foil. Prepare a strip of paper to stick in saying Merry Kissmus!! |

Same idea as the pinecones, but popcorn. Put about 15 kernels in a glass ball and zap in the microwave until it's nearly full of popped corn. Buy a few extras as you may have a little bit of breakage. Then shake out any unpopped kernels, stuff in a few red berries (fake ones) put the metal top back on and tie a red bow on top and add a bit of greenery. Done! These last for years and years, btw. |

31 January 2013
Responding to the announcement by the Department for Education that they are increasing contributions to the Teachers' Pension Scheme (TPS) for the second year running, Chris Keates, General Secretary of the NASUWT, the largest teachers' union, said:
"The announcement of the increase in pension contributions comes on top of the unjustified contributions increase introduced in 2012, and at the same time as the continuing freeze on teachers' pay and the constant attacks and denigration of the teaching profession.
"As a result of the agreement by the Department of Education (DfE) and those representing a minority of the teaching profession, teachers are now facing the prospect of having to pay more and work considerably longer for a pension that will be worth substantially less.
"The contributions increase is an unjustifiable tax on teachers.
"The Coalition Government has refused to undertake the actuarial valuation that would provide objective evidence about whether or not it is necessary for pension contributions to increase.
"The worsening of teachers' pensions will result in many dedicated and committed teachers leaving the profession and make it even more difficult to recruit new teachers.
"A recent NASUWT survey of over 16,000 teachers found that 79% of teachers will not be able to afford the Government's planned increases to pension contributions.
"There is not one shred of evidence to show that teachers' pensions are unaffordable or unsustainable.
"At a time of austerity, the Coalition Government is taking a reckless gamble which will leave taxpayers bearing an increased financial burden if more teachers opt out of the pension scheme.
"The NASUWT and its members will continue the campaign of opposition to these disgraceful attacks on the profession."

Just arrived back from Chukotka, Russia last week. Two weeks away for one shoot day. It took 3 commercial flights to Nome, Alaska, 1 charter plane across the Bering Straight, a Russian SUV taxi down a gravel highway for one hour, a 1940's military truck across the tundra for two hours, and a two hour boat ride to finally reach "Bird Island", and shoot one of the final scenes for the project. Here I am operating our 16 foot jib over the edge of the cliff, while our local climber Kolia repelled down to collect bird eggs.

My apologies for the lack of news over the past while. The past seven months have taken me to South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, England, Germany, Russia (three times, Siberia twice), Philippines, Denmark, Norway, and the Canadian Rockies. I have been working as one of the cinematographers on "The Human Odyssey", a three part series for The Nature of Things on CBC television. It has been an amazing, and humbling, experience working with so many different people, and witnessing such diverse ways of life. As we slowly wrap up production, I hope to post more than the cellphone photos that litter my Instagram feed. The series is scheduled to air in the spring of 2015. Keep checking back for more info and pics.

The Jack the Ripper Documentary
September 17, 2012One of our keys to being London's leading tour on the Jack the Ripper murders is the amount of original research that we conduct. Our Jack the Ripper TV Channel showcases much of that research and has proved very popular since its launch in April.
Our documentary Unmasking Jack the Ripper has become quite a sensation and has been hailed as the best documentary on the subject of recent years. On Youtube it has notched up over 100,000 views making it the most watched video of any walks company. If you've not seen the introduction to this acclaimed drama/documentary then here it is again.
The documentary takes a close look at the few months in 1888 when the Whitechapel Murders held, first the East End of London, and then the country as a whole, in a grip of terror.
It looks at the earlier crimes, the murders of Emma Smith and Martha Tabram, that may or may not have been the work of Jack the Ripper. It then goes on to trace the development of the police investigation into the murders and casts a critical eye over that investigation.
A key element in the case was the arrival in late September 1888 of a letter that was signed Jack the Ripper and which really did help make this particular set of murders so famous. If you've not seen our film on the letters then here it is again.
Unmasking Jack the Ripper has been hailed as the "best ripper documentary" of recent years and the above clips are taken from it.
If you would like to purchase a copy of the DVD then you can do so by visiting our shop.
We're going to be adding a lot more video content in the coming months, including an intriguing revelation about the crimes, which we're keeping under wraps at the moment. So be sure to check back regularly or, better still, now that the nights are getting dark, and the East End streets are getting creepier, why not take the tour and walk in the footsteps of Jack the Ripper?

Album review
Elton John - Greatest Hits 1970-2002
Thirty-four songs spread over two CDs: an impressive record by anyone's standards, even if some of the later 'hits' were comparatively minor ones. In addition, there are tracks (eg, "Tiny Dancer", "Bennie And The Jets") which weren't hit singles but album favourites. Further selections—"Levon" from Madman Across The Water, "Pinball Wizard", "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds", "Border Song", "True Love", "I Don't Want To Go On With You Like That" and others—appear on a limited-edition third disc.
Rating: 4 / 10

Everything you need to know to get started
All of our rules are common knowledge also known as common sense. They're as simple as simple gets. Just in case you need to re-learn proper etiquette the rules are as follows:
Our server supports a variety of commands that are available to every player. You can easily view what commands are available to you simply by typing /commands in chat. The forward slash MUST be in front of every command in order for it to work properly. This tells our server that you're trying to execute a command.
Our banlist is only for the most serious of offenders. Chances are you will never find yourself in it unless you're an extremely rude and obnoxious person. Our autoban intervals are 5 minutes for your first offense, 30 minutes for your second and 1 hour for each additional offense after.
This means our server does not follow the natural laws that the developers of Halo original set in place. While we respect the developers of this game, it's just a lot more fun when you can break away from the norm every now and then. Here's a list of a few of the mods you'll find on our server:
Because our server depends on them
Since 2008 our server has received donations from its loyal players to fund our service costs. This makes our server 100% community dependent. If our server stops receiving donations our server will no longer be available to those who love it the most. Keep in mind that none of the money contributed goes towards personal use. It's 100% dedicated to keeping the server alive. It's not us you're helping it's the community!
Our server requires $600/year or $50/month to operate smoothly. Your donations will go towards server upgrades, web hosting and domain registration. Nobody is saying you have to donate the full amount required, any little bit helps.
Those who do donate the full monthly or yearly amount however, will be rewarded with the following VIP features:

Back again with more similes! This time, I've decided to focus, rather broadly, on fiction from the last forty years or so. The first one is a bit of a stretch, but I have to say I'm pretty proud of numbers two and three. Enjoy!
The Marlins are like a Philip Roth novel.
Reading Philip Roth is hard. While you're reading his work, you might know you're reading a great novel and/or author only because you've been told you're reading a great novel and/or author. The vocabulary is immense and the action comes slowly, or not at all, and if it does come, it's probably all a bit anticlimactic. Even if the novel sounds like a thrill ride — take The Plot Against America, in which he imagines a world in which FDR is defeated by Charles Lindbergh, who then starts to turn the US toward Nazism – it'll read mostly like the diary of a very smart person in whose life next to nothing happens. But then if you make it all the way through, you're rewarded with the realization that he really is one of the best writers out there. All those words and not a one was wasted, and what Roth has put together is a really great and moving, if muted, story that has taught you something.
That's a bit what I think watching the Marlins is like right now. When Josh Johnson isn't pitching — or maybe even when he is, depending on your preferences — there just isn't much about them that makes them fun to watch. Hanley Ramirez, maybe the most exciting player in baseball not too long ago, has been terrible, and power-hitting uber-prospect Mike Stanton has just two homers. They made a bunch of trades this offseason in which they gave something away for nothing. Their best hitter to date (other than Logan Morrison, who has been out for most of the past two weeks) has been career bench player Greg Dobbs, owner of a career 88 OPS+.
Yet, somehow, they keep winning. Even after a ten-inning loss on Saturday, the Marlins are 16-9, a game and a half behind the MLB-best Phillies in the NL East and three games up in the (as yet very non-existent) wildcard race. They can be hard to watch, as baseball teams go, but at the end of the day, you look at the standings and they're right there near the top.
Sam Fuld is like Infinite Jest.
Infinite Jest, the late David Foster Wallace's 1996 masterpiece which runs about 1100 pages, is a great book for all sorts of reasons. Parts of it are very funny, parts are very different from anything you've ever read before. He created some fascinating characters, and a great big mess of a somewhat plausible near-future world.
The plot and story, though, are not among the things that make it great. There are parts that get you excited and make you think, for a while, that you're actually reading a real novel with a beginning, middle, and end; then there are long parts that lead straight into a dead end, or just sit still; by the end, it's pretty clear that Wallace didn't really care at all about the story, and maybe didn't even bother to work out for himself what really happens. That's just not the point.
Sam Fuld is probably my favorite active baseball player, and has been since before this season started. He's a little guy who has diabetes and was an economics major at Stanford. He used to work at Stats, Inc. He's the son of a professor and state senator, and the second cousin of former (disgraced, more or less) Lehman Brothers CEO Dick Fuld.
And he's a lot of fun to watch play baseball. He's one of those rare guys who gets the gutty/gritty/hearty label and is also a pretty useful player. He tries awfully hard, and he's little (if he's 5'10″ as reported, I'm…like 2-3″ taller than I actually am), and that makes him fun to watch, but he also draws walks and runs the bases well and plays good defense (at least in the corners).
What he's not, though, is a very good baseball player. People seem increasingly to be confusing him with one of those. He started out on fire, hitting .365/.407/.541 through his first 81 plate appearances (ending April 23), coming up with a number of hits at particularly opportune times and making a number of impressive catches, kicking off a hilarious mostly-Twitter-driven Chuck-Norris-esque meme in his honor. So now he's a "rising star", at least according to MLB.com, who featured him in an image profiling that story alongside Buster Posey and Starlin Castro, who are six and eight years younger than Fuld, respectively.
Fuld, as I've said, is a useful player. His minor league line, though, is .285/.372/.405, and while, as I've said, he's good in the corners, he's not rangy enough to be a quality every-day centerfielder. He's a great fourth outfielder to have, and isn't necessarily a bad starter; even good teams need a starter or two who's just an average player, maybe even a little less. But he's no more than that, and a decade from now, when Posey and Castro are established superstars and future Hall of Famers and Fuld is a millionaire investment advisor somewhere, someone's going to show that photo to MLB.com, and that will be one embarrassed website.
So Fuld, my favorite baseball player, is a lot like Infinite Jest, one of my favorite books. There are all kinds of perfectly good reasons to love Sam Fuld. But if you're looking at him as a star baseball player, just like if you're looking to Jest for a coherent and fulfilling storyline, you're going to be disappointed. They might tease you from time to time by flashing exactly what you're looking for, but it's just not actually there.
The Yankees are like the Twilight saga.
Full disclosure: I've never read a word of the Twilight books, just as, if I can avoid it, I never watch the Yankees play. But from what I do know about both, the parallels here seem too solid to pass up:
- You either love them or hate them. It's hard to find someone who's just plain ambivalent about either the Steinbrenners' team or Stephenie Meyer's books; there's the obsessed, and then there's the violently opposed. And the latter group tends to hate without actually watching or reading much (if any) of the thing hated.
- They're filled with embarrassingly cheesy details and storylines. My understanding is that in Twilight, vampires sparkle (in the sunlight, or something?) and are centuries-old, tortured teenagers who fall in love with real ordinary human teenage girls. The Yankees are a team of highly-compensated professional tradesmen who nonetheless have a highschoolish team "captain," whose radio voice has an arsenal of unbelievably hokey brain-damaging homerun calls, and whose media thrives on some awfully contrived drama among the manager, ownership and front office. So, you know, basically the same crap.
- They can do no wrong. My understanding — having, again, never read a word of it — is that the Twilight novels are particularly poorly written, worse even than the general standard for young adult fiction. The dialogue is painful, the stories take completely unbelievable turns, etc., etc., but it doesn't matter, because Meyer has created characters her audience has fallen so completely in love with that they'll read anything involving them, and so her awful prose makes millions and millions of dollars. The Yankees? More or less the same. They can sign a set-up man to a huge three-year contract, hand forty-five million to a player with the defensive skills of a DH to play shortstop…and the wins and money keep pouring in. The Yankees and Stephenie Meyer have created invincible products.
See? Exactly the same.
During the week, you can find Bill over on The Platoon Advantage. Pretty much all the time, you can find him on Twitter.

The USD traded firmer while the CAD, AUD and NZD came under pressure after the RBNZ shift from a hawkish to a neutral bias and warned that the kiwi is overvalued. An article in the Australian newspaper also reckoned that an RBA rate hike on Feb-3 is "almost certain," while copper, gold and other commodity prices were soft today.

EUR-USD has traded lower in the wake of the FOMC, even though the statement wasn't really much of a cue for dollar bulls as it reiterated that it would remain "patient" in its rate normalization process, adding in a concern about international risks. A spike in 'Grexit' concerns has helped keep a cap on the euro, which slipped to a low of 1.1262 against the dollar during the Asia session, since remaining below 1.1300.

I found this at Whole Foods and liked the way it smelled so I purchased to use as a light conditioner. I am loving this product. I have been using LP "Full" shampoo & conditioner but have to switch up products every 3 weeks so my hair doesn't build up a tolerance to products.. I also like to use a clarifying shampoo on occasion to help strip build up off my scalp and hair, this is a great light conditioner to use afterwards. I am very satisfied with this purchase and will be repurchasing in the future.
Great, great conditioner! So detangling but light at the same time. Will repurchase as long as this is produced. This is my 5-6th bottle.

I am surprised there isn't a review for this version of the detangler. I know many people love the Citrus & Neroli version which I tried a few years back and didn't like. I have fine very dry/frizzy naturally wavy hair with oily prone roots. Great combo I know lol. I have gone sulfate free for years aka more natural lines, as years of drugstore and so mainstream salon lines , regardless of their quality raves, are all filled with harsh sulfates, cones, etc etc which all only dry out and weigh down my hair. Natural lines are a great way to go but there was as well teh issue for me of some formulas being too oil filled and weighing down my hair. I loved this John Masters Detangler as it is super creamy and lightweight, amazing combo to give my hair moisture yet not weigh it down. The Peppermint & Rosemary formula is jsut way better for me due to this and of course peppermint is great for circulation/clarifying, plus love the refreshing smell and cooling effect. If actually tried it out as a leave-in styling cream and LOVE it for that even more. Doing this with any other conditioner would typically be to heavy for my hair. Great product and think I just might continue using it as a styling product, in which case it will last forever and justify the price for me (do love the slim packaging as well). If the Citrus Neroli gets too heavy long term for you give this one a try! :)

I am replacing our front entry door with sidelights. We really want external grids (not internal) so to get them in the style of door we want in provia we need to get the signet model. We were quoted $6000 for the provia signet with external grids and two sidelights. Is this a good price? Alternatively, for about $1000 less I could get a similar style door and sidelights from Millikin Millworks, which I can find little about online but based on one comment on this board they are nothing special. Thoughts on the price of the provia and whether it's worth the extra $1000 to get the provia vs the Milliken? thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I guess my view is not whether the Provia is worth $1000 more than the Millikin, but why you believe you have to spend $6000 to get this type of door. In my area I can guarantee that one can get a really fine door with sidelights for thousands less. How many bids have you gotten for the type of door you want? Is it some unusual size? Just as a point of reference, take a look at what fiberglass doors with sidelights are going for on eBay: |
