To Drown in OIL
( From Ecointersect , EIA, EconMatters, Science Monitor, Haver, Motley Fool )
US consumption is trending down because of the slow economy and energy efficiency.
( Read US Mileage Oct 25 )
The strong growth in U.S. crude oil production, primarily attributable to growing volumes of crude oil produced from tight oil formations, has been a major oil market story in recent years.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates that U.S. total crude oil production averaged 6.4 million barrels per day (bbl/d) in 2012, the highest annual average rate of production since 1997
, and an 0.8-million-bbl/d increase from 2011 (See Figure 1 below).
This month, EIA is extending the Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO), forecast period through 2014 for the first time. In this forecast, EIA expects continuing strong growth, with U.S. crude oil production increasing to 7.3 million bbl/d in 2013 and 7.9 million bbl/d in 2014, the highest annual rate of crude oil production since 1988.
These continuing increases in crude oil production are having profound effects on U.S. petroleum balances. A large portion of tight oil production consists of light, sweet crude oil. As previously noted by EIA, growing production has led to reduced imports of light, sweet crude oil on the U.S. Gulf Coast, the leading U.S. refining center. Without sufficient pipeline capacity to move all of the growing midcontinent production to the Gulf Coast, prices of these crudes, such as West Texas Intermediate (WTI), have declined compared to coastal grades such as Louisiana Light Sweet (LLS), reflecting the increased cost of moving the crude using marginal modes of transportation such as rail, barge, and truck. The persistent discounts have spurred many infrastructure changes, including the May 2012 reversal of the Seaway Pipeline, which runs between Cushing, Oklahoma and Houston, Texas. The availability of domestic light crude to U.S. Gulf Coast refineries is expected to continue increasing as pipeline expansions allow more crude oil to move to the U.S. Gulf Coast, including an expansion of the Seaway Pipeline expected to be completed later this month. Growing production is also encouraging crude oil movements to the East and West coasts via rail.
Finally, the choice of accounting convention for measuring liquids production also affects reported output levels.
Domestic field production of crude oil and liquefied petroleum gases, a somewhat broader focus than crude oil alone, totaled 8.5 million bbl/d in 2012, and is forecast to reach 9.5 million bbl/d in 2013 and 10.1 million bbl/d in 2014. Forecast production in 2014 represents the highest level of total field production for all liquids since 1985. ( See graph below )
The problem here is that U.S. and Canadian oil production is increasing faster and producing more oil than Cushing can build extra storage or increase pipeline capacity, and or bring new pipeline projects online from Cushing to Houston. Oil stored at Cushing basically jumped from 30 million barrels to 50 million barrels in 2012, an increase of 20 million barrels which is just an incredible feat, just imagine if there were no pipelines pumping oil to Houston in 2012. In fact, full capacity including shell capacity would have been completely filled to the gills, and Cushing would have to stop accepting oil into its facilities.
( See graph below )
There can be a major pullback in oil prices, we are presently already in the deflationary stage, but you haven`t seen anything yet, because we are increasing production (we currently produce more than we consume each day) around the world as prices are real high relative to demand. What happens when the central bank stimulus stops being effective, and it stops altogether, and the debt issues are finally addressed? That is when the real recession takes hold, and the only solution then to massive oversupply is stopping production. The real question is who stops production: is it North America, Russia or OPEC? The real answer in the boom and bust cycles that play out in oil industry is all of the above, in the end everyone is going to have to cut back production as prices are going to drop like a rock in the next bear cycle in the oil industry.
The weekly EIA report came last week and one of the noteworthy data points was the Cushing, Oklahoma storage numbers. Already at a record, Cushing added another 1.8 million barrels to storage sending total Cushing stocks to 51.4 million barrels of oil in storage facilities at the energy hub.
There has been 6.3 million barrels of oil added to Cushing during the last 6 weeks. To put these build numbers into perspective, Cushing oil inventories stood at 28.3 million barrels for this time a year ago, which is a build of 23.6 million barrels in a year.
Yet we have almost doubled Cushing`s inventories in a year. This points to a much bigger problem with analysts missing entirely, thinking this was just a Cushing log jam problem. This is seeing the trees, and missing the overall forest, Cushing is just a reflection of the bigger problem, there is just too damn much oil sloshing around the world right now with nowhere to go.
The real problem is that nobody ever planned for the US to be producing 7 million barrels of oil every day and rising, there is just not enough demand in the world for this extra oil, so it has to be stored because everyone needs the money these days. And until prices drop substantially, no one is going to cut back producing this black gold.

US and World Demand
Global Crude Oil and Liquid Fuels Overview
EIA expects oil markets to loosen in 2013 and 2014 as increasing global supply more than offsets higher global consumption. Projected world supply increases by 1.0 million bbl/d in 2013 and 1.7 million bbl/d in 2014, with most of the growth coming from outside the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).
North America will account for much of this growth
. Projected world liquid fuels consumption grows by an annual average of 0.9 million barrels per day (bbl/d) in 2013 and 1.3 million bbl/d in 2014. Countries outside the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) drive expected consumption growth.
Global Crude Oil and Liquid Fuels Consumption
World liquid fuels consumption grew by an estimated 0.9 million bbl/d in 2012 to reach 89.2 million bbl/d. EIA expects that this growth will remain about the same over the next year before picking up again in 2014 due to a moderate recovery in global economic growth; consumption reaches 90.1 million bbl/d in 2013 and 91.5 million bbl/d in 2014. Non-OECD Asia is the leading regional contributor to expected global consumption growth.
OECD liquid fuels consumption declined by 0.4 million bbl/d in 2012. EIA projects OECD consumption to further decline by 0.3 million bbl/d in 2013, as modest consumption growth in North America is more than offset by decreasing consumption in Europe. The OECD consumption decline narrows to 0.1 million bbl/d in 2014 as European consumption begins to flatten in response to higher economic growth. EIA projections do not assume any significant deterioration of the economic situation in the United States or the European Union (EU) next year.
Oil Glut at Cushing Storage Facility
The final EIA Inventory report for 2012 : Cushing inventories increased another 4.39 million barrels to a record 51.36 million. All this build in Cushing happened even as the Seaway pipeline began pumping crude from Cushing, Oklahoma to a major U.S. refining hub in Houston, Texas in May of 2012. ( See graph below )
Total Crude Oil and Petroleum Products
US Consumption
Us Inventories
U.S. commercial crude oil inventories (excluding those in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve) increased by 2.6 million barrels from the previous week. At 371.7 million barrels, U.S. crude oil inventories are well above the upper limit of the average range for this time of year.
( See graph below )
US Production
The Rise in Domestic Production
U.S. crude oil production (including lease condensate) averaged almost 6.5 million barrels per day in September 2012
, the highest volume in nearly 15 years.
The last time the United States produced 6.5 million barrels per day or more of crude oil was in January 1998. Since September 2011, U.S. production has increased by more than 900,000 barrels per day. ( See graph below )
A New Era: Growing Economy with Lower Energy Prices ?
In fact, more supply than demand, even with a robust economy, because part of the reason the world economy will be doing so well is all the global enterprises out there producing oil. It's a good business with very high margins when compared to many other industries with the past decade of higher prices.
Consequently, even if the US economy really takes off in 2013 as some have forecasted, don`t look for demand to overtake supply in the equation. The domestic oil renaissance means that we could have a booming economy, and still have more supply than we can use each day. Thus it is actually possible to have an era with a great economy, and even lower oil prices due to the domestic oil boom.
Lower OIL Imports
US oil imports at lowest level since 1999 as trade gap shrinks
The oil and gas picture is improving. The trade deficit for petroleum-based goods alone shrank from $326 billion in 2011 to about $291 billion last year. That's still a big deficit, but oil imports fell by about $24 billion. Meanwhile, petroleum-related exports rose by more than $10 billion. According to analysis of the data by IHS Global Insight, an international consulting group, oil imports in December hit their lowest level since December 1999.
In the four weeks ended Jan. 18, the U.S. imported less oil than we've imported in any period since the year 2000, a level we haven't seen consistently since 1996. It's a product of increased oil drilling across the U.S., and there's a demand aspect as well. Even as the economy has improved over the past three years, the amount of oil supplied to U.S. consumers has fallen.
Over the next decade, it's possible that increased drilling, efficiency, and alternatives could render us almost import-free in the oil market. It's not as crazy as it once appeared.
Leading the decline in imports was an 11.0% drop (-20.9% y/y) in the value of petroleum imports.
The quantity of petroleum product imports was off 7.2% m/m and it was down 17.5% y/y.
( See graphs below )
Efficiency becomes reality
Oil drilling gets a lot of the credit for the declining imports, but declining demand should get equal play. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, petroleum product supplied in the first 11 months of 2012 averaged 18.639 million barrels per day, 10.4% lower than 2005. Part of this drop is due to the recession that we're still recovering from, but efficiency is playing a bigger role than many people think.
Usage has dropped since 2010 despite growing GDP, and fuel efficiency standards are playing a role. The Obama administration passed a new CAFE standard of 54.5 mpg for auto manufacturers that takes effect in 2025. This is driving long-term planning, but the reason for better efficiency may be closer to the pump.

The retail market of citizen watches in UAE is strengthening in terms of retail presence. Citizen watches are renowned for representing innovation and cutting edge technology. In UAE, the retailing of these time pieces can be described as high-valued. The retail operations have been successful and that is why as part of expansion strategies, there are plans to open more stores within the region.
Exclusive stores that have been opened are of great importance to consumers of these time pieces because they are provided with an opportunity to understand the brand and what it has to offer. It is a concept that has borne success in markets in other regions like China. As the term 'citizen watches' states, the policy is to offer the best services and products to everyone.

The royal couple is soaking up as much romantic time together as possible before their baby arrives in July — and retreated to the island of Mustique in the West Indies. But they were joined by Kate's parents! Read on for more details.
Pregnant Kate Middleton, 31, and husband Prince William, 30, are taking an exotic vacation known as a babymoon before their royal baby arrives in July — but Kate's parents tagged along for the exclusive and romantic getaway!
While many couples embark on the babymoon tradition, in which they squeeze in one last romantic trip as a couple before welcoming their first child, the royal couple went a little unconventional and invited Kate's entire family!
The royal couple landed in the private island of Mustique, part of a group of islands called Grenadines in the West Indies. They were reportedly joined by their parents Michael and Carole Middleton.
Kate Middleton & Prince William's Exclusive $30,000 A Week Villa
Even though Prince William's in-laws were along for the journey, the royal couple is sure to have enough privacy in their private villa — which, according to The Sun, comes with a $30,000 per week price tag.
Luckily for the pregnant Duchess, her morning sickness, which caused her to be hospitalized in December, is much better — and she can fly with ease!
"Both William and Kate were hoping her condition would not stop her from making the eight-hour flight to Barbados and the connection to Mustique," a source tells The Sun. "A month ago, such a journey would have been unthinkable for her, so this is a clear sign she has made a virtual recovery."
We're so glad they are taking this exotic trip together!

Do you see how William is still walking way ahead of her ?! That's so funny. He really isn't "in love" with her – shows her no respect. And she still looks like a dumb b*tch anorexic. She is so vain she won't even eat for her child ! I guess her Royal Uterus needs a vacation with the NOTHING that she does I guess the poor dumb b*tch just gets exhausted !!! I hope William keeps making her walk 20 steps behind him ! What a couple !{ a couple of jerks }.

Customers: While we perched at a bar and listened to Jo Dee Messina's "Bye Bye," a single figure separated from the crowds of bobbing hats and clicking boots and stood alone — like a tiny, hunched John Wayne surveying the throngs, a cowboy about to rope him up some cattle. Suddenly, he pointed at a random pretty girl and crudely thrust his pelvis toward her in a jerky humping motion. Vernon Lovejoy wore a red flannel shirt with white fringe running along the back and sleeves and rhinestones glistening from the upper back. His startlingly jet-black hair was slicked back from his receding hairline, and a perfectly manicured moustache sat atop his upper lip. As soon as I got near him, he tried to thrust into me, but Mike shouted sharply from a few feet away, gesturing clearly for Vernon to keep his hands from traveling south.
"So, what brings you out tonight?" I asked.
"I'm an investor, land developer, and multimillionaire," he said. "I don't drink, smoke, gamble, or pay for pussy. I just come out here a couple times a week to have a good time."
"Isn't this crowd a little young for you? How old are you, anyway?"
"I'm 85 years old," he said, fumbling in his wallet and eventually flashing me his driver's license for age confirmation. "I could be the grandfather of any of those young boys over there, but I could kick their asses." He gestured sharply at my friends. Mike squinted and sipped his bourbon, which must have been strong if he was even considering having a showdown with an 85-year-old man.
"When I'm dancing with girls, a lot of times they ask me if I'm taking Viagra," he continued. "But I tell them I don't need it. You know what I'm saying?"
"Uh, yeah," I said.
"I mean, when I'm dancing all close to them, I sometimes—"
"—Yes, I get it!"
"Anyway, I'm not your father or nothin'," he said, "But be careful out here. I don't take advantage of girls, but other guys out here will. Don't let 'em slip anything into your drink." He stole another sideways glance over at my friends. "You don't wanna get raped."
Texas Consensus: There's something about seeing leather boots and big-brimmed hats that puts a Texan right back at home, even in a glam Hollywood-ized cowboy bar with enough half-dressed girls to put the "ho" in hoedown. Yeah, it ain't quite the jukebox saloons out in the tumbleweed towns of deep east Texas or even a big-ass honky-tonk staple like Fort Worth's infamous Billy Bob's. But a stiff drink cures a homesick heart faster than you can say "achy-breaky," and an upbeat atmosphere and a fun crowd don't hurt neither.

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the NDI1 gene encodes a mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase, the catalytic side of which projects to the matrix side of the inner mitochondrial membrane. In addition to this NADH dehydrogenase, S. cerevisiae exhibits another mitochondrial NADH-dehydrogenase activity, which oxidizes NADH at the cytosolic side of the inner membrane. To investigate whether open reading frames YMR145c/NDE1 and YDL 085w/NDE2, which exhibit sequence similarity with NDI1, encode the latter enzyme, NADH-dependent mitochondrial respiration was assayed in wild-type S. cerevisiae and nde deletion mutants. Mitochondria were isolated from aerobic, glucose-limited chemostat cultures grown at a dilution rate (D) of 0. 10 h-1, in which reoxidation of cytosolic NADH by wild-type cells occurred exclusively by respiration. Compared with the wild type, rates of mitochondrial NADH oxidation were about 3-fold reduced in an nde1Delta mutant and unaffected in an nde2Delta mutant. NADH-dependent mitochondrial respiration was completely abolished in an nde1Delta nde2Delta double mutant. Mitochondrial respiration of substrates other than NADH was not affected in nde mutants. In shake flasks, an nde1Delta nde2Delta mutant exhibited reduced specific growth rates on ethanol and galactose but not on glucose. Glucose metabolism in aerobic, glucose-limited chemostat cultures (D = 0.10 h-1) of an nde1Delta nde2Delta mutant was essentially respiratory. Apparently, under these conditions alternative systems for reoxidation of cytosolic NADH could replace the role of Nde1p and Nde2p in S. cerevisiae.

Ah-Tha-Thi-Ki Museum Opening: No, it's not some new dance craze or sushi roll. The Ah-Tha-Thi-Ki ("a place to learn," for those who don't speak Seminole) is the first museum dedicated to the history and culture of the Florida Seminoles. Although even they can't claim to be Florida natives (they are descended from the Creek Indians of Georgia and Alabama), the Seminoles do have more than 200 years of fascinating and often tragic history in this state. After coming perilously close to extinction in the mid-1800s owing mainly to a couple of wars with the hostile American government, the tribe has rebounded to about 2000 members; several hundred of them live on the Big Cypress Reservation west of Miami. The museum is located on 60 acres at the edge of the Everglades and includes exhibits, more than a mile of nature trails, and a living Seminole village and ceremonial grounds. The grand opening, scheduled to run from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. today and tomorrow, features stomp dancers (rarely seen apart from sacred ceremonies usually closed to outsiders), storytellers, and Seminole singers. Admission is six dollars. To get to the museum, take I-75 (Alligator Alley) west toward Naples, get off at exit fourteen, and head north about seventeen miles. Call 954-792-0745. (JO)

The popular summer movie Magic Mike, featuring male erotic dancers, has provided a refreshing image of men as objects of women's sexual desire. Some of the appeal of the storyline is that is in using the idea of men as sexual objects as a punchline, something so out of the ordinary that it is funny. Gender flip flops are often used for humor, drawing on our own limited expectations for gender and self expression. And, at their best, encouraging us to think out of the box. I think this movie in particular can spur an important discussion about the way we see men, and how we can do a better job of supporting male sexuality.
Male strippers, for a hetero- female audience, have very limited venues and often when women do visit a male review, they are doing it more as a novelty largely driven by a shared embarrassment and "dare" type of mentality. I know very few women who will admit to being excited about watching men in this way, although many talk about hot men, had posters of male stars on their pre-teen bedroom walls, and profess to crushes on the most recent vampire/werewolf male sex symbol. I know women who are passionately attracted to and enjoy sex with their male partners, so why is it so hard for us to express that? Why do we not celebrate the male body and a hetero-female desire for men?
As a sex therapist, I have the privilege to talk to men intimately about their sexuality and their sexual relationships. One thing I hear often is hetero men saying they have no idea if their female partner finds them attractive, or even enjoys having sex with them. I know very few hetero men that would describe themselves as sexy or are proud of their body. I see men who step in to any sexual encounter already full of shame and feeling like their partner is doing them a favor. In fact, I often work with men to heal the wounds that have come from believing that their sexuality is a bad thing, something women put up with for secondary benefits, best contained or denied. This saddens me, and I believe it should sadden you.
I think we have absorbed a hetero-male fear of being attracted to the male body. We have as a culture so thoroughly put women in the role of sex object that we have denied male bodies their role as objects of attraction and desire. This is also related to our cultural lockdown on women's sexuality and the denial that women have sexual desire at all. And yet, men deserve to feel like they are desirable and that their bodies are beautiful. They certainly deserve to feel that their sexual partners are excited to be with them and that sex is a mutual delight. We all, men, women, hetero, gay or bi, will benefit from expanding our sexual container away from a pursuer/object model, toward one on which we can all recognize and celebrate our unique beauty and contribution to shared sexuality. If we admit that both genders like sex and have sexually exciting bodies, we will have more equality and less shame in our sexuality.
So what can you, as a woman who loves men, do to help?
Show your partner that you found them attractive – This is different than stating or showing your love. Be specific about your attraction to their body, the way they are built, smell, feel. Tell them they look good. You like to hear it, so do they.

When I'm not
"Moving to Beijing was a big decision for our family. After having spent our first months here adjusting to the new environment, we have started to explore some of the many interesting things to be seen and done in Beijing as well as other parts of China. It is amazing to be able to drive to the Great Wall within an hour from our home. We also plan to explore other places in Asia, which are now just a couple of hours away by airplane."

STAR Industrial PhD Fellowship
"The STAR PhD fellowship allowed me to pursue my personal research interest together with a Novo Nordisk research project team. As a STAR fellow it was good for me to know that you were working on something extremely relevant."
My industry career started as a STAR fellow in 1998
I applied for a STAR Industrial PhD fellowship at Novo Nordisk because it gave me the opportunity to combine academic and industrial research. Both back then and today I appreciate that the research being done in the laboratory has a direct impact on projects aiming at providing new and better ways to treat diabetes.
Part of Novo Nordisk from the beginning
I did my PhD from 1998-2001 as a STAR fellow. The focus of my project was to develop a model of diabetes to be used at Novo Nordisk. Right from the beginning, I became part of a Novo Nordisk research project team, which was very motivating and gave me the possibility to learn a lot about the research strategies of Novo Nordisk. As a STAR fellow it is good to know that you are working on something extremely relevant.
I had the opportunity to attend international conferences and use the extensive Novo Nordisk scientific network within diabetes to collaborate with internationally acknowledged experts within my field of research. This was an excellent way of learning and getting inspired.
STAR fellowship has meant continuity
After my PhD I continued doing research within the same field. It was a great feeling to see the models that I had worked on during my PhD actually being used in several of our research projects. This was exactly what I had hoped for, when I was spending the long hours in the lab during my PhD time. I was fortunate to be in a position, where I could continue my research on models of diabetes. Based on the extensive results from this work I ended up doing a Doctor of Medical Science degree. I have continued to work with these models in many different project teams but at the same time I have taken on new challenges within R&D management.
New opportunities in China
From the beginning of 2010 I have taken on a new and exciting challenge by moving to Beijing to start a diabetes research unit at our R&D centre located in the ZhongGuanCun Life Science Park. The possibility to combine my experience from our research organisation with a stay abroad has been a wish for me for many years. Things are different here, but like in R&D labs in Denmark, I find myself among a group of great colleagues, who have helped me feel welcome and at home here in Beijing.

Print this page
A good egg 11/10
(This article is adapted from the "Good Living" column in the
November 2010 ShopSmart magazine
You've no doubt heard about the two gigantic egg farms in Iowa that were at the center of the recent huge recall. But what you might not know is that the rate of salmonella enteriditis infection (the kind specific to eggs) had doubled since last May, setting off warnings to state health departments.
Weak food–safety regulations are a big part of the growing problem, but so is the giant-scale, factory-style farming that this country relies on and that has been at the root of many recent food-safety incidents.
There's no guarantee that smaller, or better-managed, farms are always safer. But you can buy eggs laid by chickens at farms with more space and better hygiene and animal-welfare practices. And you can look for products that are independently certified, like those labeled "Certified Human" or "USDA Certified Organic" (produced by small and factory-sized farms). A more decentralized system could reduce large food recalls.
Also, antibiotics can't be fed on a daily basis to "Certified Humane" hens or used at all in "organic" hens, an otherwise common practice that can mask bad hygiene until it gets really bad.
So our advice is be a good egg and, when possible, support local farmers markets or buy "organic" or "Certified Humane" eggs.
Safer ways to cook with eggs
You can reduce your risk of getting sick from eggs by carefully following all the
safety tips
from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
Salmonella is always a danger if you eat raw or undercooked eggs, such as those called for in recipes for meringues, salad dressings, ice cream, or eggnog.
Consumer Reports
test-kitchen experts advise that if uncooked eggs are needed for a recipe, you should use pasteurized eggs. They cost more, but they've been heated to kill bacteria. And the shells are waxed to help prevent cross-contamination.
For recipes calling for raw egg whites, such as a meringue pie, use pasteurized dried or pasteurized refrigerated liquid egg whites. And we hate to be a killjoy—but never, ever nibble on raw cookie dough!
Beware of exploding eggs
Microwaving eggs in their shells will cause them to explode. Even if they're not in their shells, they might burst in the microwave. Rapid heating causes steam to build up under the yolk membrane faster than it can escape. But nuked scrambled eggs turn out great.

States rages on
Turning a
but Cuba still defends against US attacksby Eric Jackson We
relieved that the last independent Cuban journalist still in prison
has been released. A years-long nightmare of suffering and
humiliation for a large group of journalists and their families has
finally come to an end. However, independent journalists in Cuba
continue to face harassment and intimidation for their work. We call
on the Cuban government now to dismantle the obsolete legal framework
that punishes independent reporting with jail, and to grant freedom
of expression to all Cubans.

Intelligence Agency (CIA) directs a plan on the island to fabricate
artificial civil society "leaders" who support Washington's
plans to overthrow the Cuban government.
Razones de
Cuba television program
Panama is the setting for an April propaganda duel about Cuba, its future leadership, and its status as an independent nation. From April 25 to 29, the US State Department is sponsoring the first {think}CUBA gathering at the Hotel Miramar. On the {think}Cuba website, the organizers say that their purpose is to "convene select leaders in activism for human rights and democratic freedoms outside of Cuba to become educated ambassadors of movements working toward democratizing and empowering Cubans" and form an "international task force" that will "collectively support efforts of Cuba's leading activists." Organizer Stephanie Rudat, of Absot Marketing, is a Californian with a State Department grant. "Toppling dictators is something I really like," she declares on another website. Meanwhile, the government of Cuba has something to say about gringos who would choose "Cuba's leading activists." They are fighting the Miami exile movement, State Department and the likes of Stephanie Rudat with a new series of television programs, YouTube videos and website, Las Razones de Cuba. Their argument is that such new US propaganda offensives as {think}Cuba and the championing of certain dissidents in Cuba is just another phase in a long-running but so far fruitless effort to reverse the 1959 Cuban Revolution and restore the old oligarchy that fled to Miami to its former positions of economic power and political influence. To Las Razones de Cuba, the new media offensives are just a new attempt to accomplish what Luis Posada Carriles's bombs did not. Las Razones de Cuba, with sponsorship from the Cuban Embassy and Panama's Sindicato de Periodistas, is making a video presentation to Panamanian journalists, journalism students and activists at 6:30 p.m. on April 13 at the Gil Blas Tejeira Auditorium at the University of Panama's Faculty of Social Communication. Cuba's crackdown on independent journalism softens Cuba has closed a long-bleeding public relations wound by sending the last of its imprisoned journalists, Albert Santiago Du Bouchet of the tiny independent Havana Press news agency, out of prison and into exile in Spain. All of the 29 journalists arrested and handed harsh sentences in the 2003 "Black Spring" roundup of dissidents are out of prison, with all but three of them exiled in Europe. Those who stayed in Cuba refused exile and were eventually freed on parole. A new generation of anti-government Cuban journalists, bloggers and commentators, the best known of them Yoani Sánchez, continue their activities at the margins of Cuban law and are regularly denounced by the government and its supporters as disloyal propagandists in the pay of hostile foreign powers. To be a non-government, non-Communist Party journalist in Cuba is still not easy: although the criminal laws (which have not been repealed) are fading as a problem, the lack of an economic framework to support such labor, plus denial of access and recognition by the government, still make independent journalism difficult there. The winds of change have been in the air in, around and about Cuba for several years and the aging Castro brothers as well as those who have for decades tried without success to oust their government are all aware of it. With Fidel having stepped aside from running the government and playing the roles of columnist and elder statesman, Raúl has embarked on a number of policy changes in politics and the economy. Characterize them as desperate efforts to shore up a discredited regime on the eve of a succession crisis or corrections of excesses and errors so as to improve the lives of the Cuban people in the long run according to your ideological proclivities. In any case it has been decided that it's counter-productive to jail people for saying and writing things against the government --- but on the other hand the Castros and their supporters are not about to cede in the face of hostile propaganda coming mainly from the north. The United States and particularly the right-wing Cuban exile leadership, and now the European Union as well, are promoting the democratization of Cuba. However, among these forces there are different ideas of what that means. The Cuban American National Foundation and exiles to the right of it would replace the present government in Havana with an authoritarian or dictatorial right-wing regime, and restore the property and privileges of the oligarchic families that lost power and influence to the Cuban Revolution. Others have different objectives, ranging from specific economic and policy designs to general increases in personal freedoms or political democracy. All of these forces are positioning themselves for the moment when the Castro brothers fade into history --- but so are the Castro brothers. Meanwhile, almost all of the European countries whose governments criticize Cuba do business with Cuba and vote in the United Nations to condemn the US economic embargo against the island. Even the most reactionary Latin American governments --- with the exception of the pariah government of Honduras --- decline to follow the US lead and maintain diplomatic ties with Cuba. Panama may have a rightist government, but Cuba is an important customer for the Colon Free Zone, and Ricardo Martinelli does not appear ready to throw that business away. On the ground in Cuba, there is no political organization in a position to challenge the single legal party, the Communist Party of Cuba, for leadership of the country. However, there are economic and political conditions that would allow an opposition party --- or several of them --- to thrive. Forces in the United States, which are not necessarily working in unison, are trying to promote the alternative that will end communist rule. To this end relatively small dissident groups like the Damas de Blanco, and individuals like dissident blogger Yoani Sánchez, are promoted in foreign media as potential leaders of a new Cuba. The Cuban government, for its part, uses this treatment as evidence that these critics are the tools of a hostile foreign power. The long years of US-directed terrorism against Cuba --- sometimes officially if covertly backed by the government in Washington, more often run independently by Miami-based exile organizations --- lend the Castro government a certain air of credibility on the issue. Apart from the things that Luis Posada Carriles was accused of lying about, the Miami exiles have earned a certain reputation. They set off bombs across the United States, with US citizens among the victims. Their movement was at the heart of the Nixon administration's attacks on the Democratic Party, with its operatives being those infamously arrested breaking into the Democratic National Committee's offices in the Watergate Hotel. They boasted about these things in their own and the US corporate mainstream media. To be a pro-United States journalist in Cuba, however, has become more difficult because of two US court decisions that the Cuban government, while not actually a party, has lost. On April 8 anti-Castro terrorist Luis Posada Carriles was acquitted by an El Paso federal immigration court jury of perjury charges for lying about his ultra-violent past in an immigration application. Meanwhile, five Cuban or Cuban-American men --- René González, Gerardo Hernández, Ramón Labañino, Antonio Guerrero and Fernando González --- were arrested in 1998 and continue to serve long federal prison sentences for their spying on the Miami-based right-wing Cuban exile movement of which Posada and his armed faction form a part. Luis Posada Carriles Posada is a prison escapee, who was facing trial in Venezuela for 73 counts of aggravated murder in 1985 when the late Cuban American National Foundation leader Jorge Mas Canosa paid a hefty bribe to prison officials, who let him escape. Tried in absentia, Posada was found guilty of masterminding a 1976 plot to put a bomb aboard a Cubana airliner, which detonated over Barbadian territorial waters and killed all 73 people aboard. It was a civilian passenger jet, but Posada might have argued that some of the people aboard were an armed force and thus a legitimate military target: among the people he killed was the Cuban national fencing team. The court in Caracas, ruling years before the leftist Hugo Chávez came to power, handed down a 30-year prison sentence. The Chávez government has repeatedly asked its counterparts in Panama, then in Washington, for Posada's extradition but has been turned down each time. Extradition requests to Panama? Yes, but before that Posada, a veteran of the US Army and the CIA, went underground in El Salvador and was part of the Ronald Reagan / Oliver North Contra supply operation. That work was interrupted by a US scandal and a 1990 assassination attempt in Guatemala, possibly by Cuban agents, in which Posada was shot several times and erroneously left for dead. After he recovered and Central America had calmed down, he spent the rest of the 1990s directing his attention to Cuba again, this time organizing a string of attacks on Cuban hotels, one of which killed an Italian tourist in 1997. In
November of 2000, Posada came to Panama with three Cuban-American
accomplices, 200 pounds of C-4 plastic explosive and other
bomb-making components. The intention was to set off a bomb at the
University of Panama when Fidel Castro, in town for a Latin American
summit, spoke there. Had that amount of explosive been used in a bomb
when and where Castro spoke, both the former Cuban leader and most of
the people in the audience would have been instantly killed, the
University of Panama central campus would have been heavily damaged
and flying chunks of debris would have killed and injured people at
the nearby Arnulfo Arias Hospital Complex. In the course of the Posada gang's trial in Panama, a piece of detonator cord went missing from the evidence and a judge was prevailed upon to throw out the most serious charges on the dubious proposition that the lack of all components for a working bomb was fatal to the case. However, the men were convicted of endangering public safety and given prison sentences of up to eight years. On her way out of office Mireya Moscoso pardoned them, with the other members of the gang (all US citizens) flying back to Florida and a heroes' reception and Posada disappearing underground. Posada then illegally entered the United States by boat from Mexico in 2005, and until recently was fighting a string of immigration charges in the US federal courts. Both the United States and before that Panama rejected Venezuelan extradition requests, on the ground that were he sent to Venezuela to finish serving his sentence for the Cubana airliner bombing, he might be sent to Cuba where he would face a possible death penalty for the Italian tourist's death. (There is another extradition possibility, not being actively considered: Cubana Flight 455 blew up over Barbadian territorial waters and a murder trial in Barbados would be a legal possibility. In Barbados, they hang people for especially egregious murders -- until 2009 the death penalty was mandatory for all first-degree murders. The problem is that Barbados is a small country with a population of about 300,000 and a land mass of 166 square miles, and although it has a well established rule of law it lacks the resources to adequately defend itself against the concerted efforts of a well-financed foreign terrorist movement.) In any case, the deference that both Democratic and Republican administrations have shown to even the most vicious of the Miami-based terrorists meant that Posada was neither charged with acts of violence nor, in accordance with the "War on Terror" norms of dealing with people associated with groups that attack civilian airliners for political purposes, ordered held indefinitely without trial by US military forces as an "enemy combatant." He was just charged with lying about his violent past, and now he's beaten the rap. However, that court victory for the Cuban exile movement is only a public relations win among themselves and within the extremes of right-wing opinion in the United States and Latin America. For the Cuban government, it's another proof that it's the target of a concerted, state-sponsored, terrorist campaign. The Cuban Five René González, Gerardo Hernández, Ramón Labañino, Antonio Guerrero and Fernando González are Cuban or Cuban-American men who are serving long sentences in US federal prisons for conspiring to commit espionage against the United States. By all accounts they were Cuban spies, but it can be quite the public relations trap to say that their efforts were directed against the United States --- to do so is to say that the United States bombs civilian airliners, tourist hotels, US airports, cars driving on the streets of Washington DC, a university of Panama auditorium and so on. The five men had infiltrated the Miami exile movement to learn about its activities --- from the perfectly legal to the extremely violent --- and the charges against them implicitly identified the United States government with some acts that are widely condemned by world opinion, even if they are rarely discussed in the US mainstream media. (But see this.) Freedom for the Cuban Five may come by way of a prisoner exchange, although at this point the Cuban government isn't admitting it. Last year a US Agency for International Development subcontractor, Alan Gross, was arrested in Cuba for distributing laptop computers and cell phones to certain people. Cuban prosecutors alleged that it was to anti-government activists, Gross pleaded that it was to Havana's Jewish community. It turned out that the contract on which Gross was working was with a Bethesda, Maryland company, Development Alternatives, to "promote democracy in Cuba." The Cuban courts, as expected, saw it as a matter of an agent of a hostile foreign government delivering equipment to subversives engaged in anti-government activities, in gross violation of Cuba's national sovereignty. Gross was handed a 15-year prison sentence. The Obama administration calls Gross's imprisonment "a major impediment" to any further dialogue between Washington and Havana. Ricardo Alarcón, the president of Cuba's National Assembly, dismisses comparisons of the Cuban Five and Gross cases and downplays suggestions of a prisoner swap. However, on a late March and early April visit to Cuba, former US President Jimmy Carter discussed both cases in conciliatory terms. He may have been doing some behind the scenes negotiations about these matters. From Obama's perspective, a trade would make sense. His administration went through the motions of prosecuting Posada and downgraded the status of Radio and TV Marti, the implicit messages being that, although there are limits to what he will do, he deplores the right-wing Cuban exile movement. (And of course, that crowd has all along manifested its disdain for Obama, so there are few votes lost there.) The continued incarceration of the Cuban Five is an embarrassing throwback to Cold War tensions and from the Castro regime's point of view at least as much an impediment to improved bilateral relations as the Gross case represents in Washington. Meanwhile, the war of words goes on The Cuban government and its front people, then the US government and its front people, will do battle on the field of public relations in Panama in April. If experience is any guide, there will be some yeyes who will see the {think}Cuba event as a way to build connections with the US government and international corporate types to advance their careers, and some sincere people in or outside the media who will show up at the Miramar to make their statement; and there will be some doctrinaire leftists who will see it as a duty to attend the Las Razones de Cuba event, along with some activists and professionals who actually think that Cuba needs to democratize but also see a need to speak up against the proposition that the United States gets to pick Latin America's leaders. One thing there will surely not be at either event: many Panamanian journalists who openly supported the proposition that Cuba should have freed its imprisoned journalists. Across all Panamanian media, one only needs the fingers on one hand to count all of the journalists who called on the Cuban government --- on the air, in print or in cyberspace --- to free the journalists that it held. If you do that, you will have several fingers to spare. Surely there will be people associated with the {think}Cuba event hoping for the Las Razones de Cuba event to break up in confused leftist faction fighting, and people at the Las Razones de Cuba presentation hoping that the {think}Cuba conference fails due to egos and rival imperial designs. But just maybe, other Panamanians will consider this Cuban dispute and its more universal implications about what it means for a country to be independent, and for a person to be free.

text:
Like many a medieval manuscript, Piers the plowman has no title as such. Walter W. Skeat, who gave it that title, notes, however, that, in the manuscript he used as the basis for his Oxford edition, "we find here [in place of the word Prologue] 'Incipit liber de petro plowman,' nearly obliterated."[i] In the introduction to his edition, Skeat spends the first seven pages clarifying his title — a necessary labor in 1869, when he first published his "student's" edition, but one indicative of a modern preoccupation with titles. Perhaps because we have no titles of nobility in America, we are very particular about the titles of our own works. But Skeat was an Englishman, so my cheap psychologizing doesn't apply to him anyway. He begins that note, headed Title, thus: "The English title is a translation of the title found in numerous MSS., viz. 'Visio Willelmi de Petro Plowman'."[ii] Notice, however, that Skeat entitles his book "The Vision of William concerning Piers the Plowman," not "Peter the Plowman," as he might have done (according to Wikipedia, "Piers is an old English Christian name, and has the same origins as Peter,"[iii] and "Pierce is a surname, a cognate of French Pierre ('Peter')"[iv]), and he eschews the more contemporary translation used also in Wikipedia, William's Vision of Piers Plowman, in its article "Piers Plowman."[v] Skeat is using an antiquated form of title for his own purposes, which I will take up in my next post. The Wikipedia article does a good job of summarizing the scholarship about the poem, especially that published since I studied the poem in graduate school in the Seventies, so if you are interested in that, I commend it to your attention.
But more than in its title, I am interested in the poem's social matrix, and in the strong contrast between it and Chaucer's work (and I now see that I will return and consider Piers Plowman one more time as a poem). I can remember reading articles back in grad school asserting that Chaucer was the first novelist, because he was so interested in the psychology of his characters, and in their motivations, and in drawing fully-rounded portraits. That is not the nature of allegory, nor of the dream vision, which both tend to draw the world in more stark Manichaean terms. Not to pursue this theme too far, but this view played into my own favorite dichotomy, that between the fantastic and the mimetic, which I would have avoided in this post were it not that I made the mistake of reading the post "Mormon LitCrit: Do We Need New Mormon Literary Theory?" by Scott Hales, and instead of polishing up my prepared posting and publishing it, I had to respond to his query and its implied request, and re-write. So rough and ready though it be, let me begin with the dichotomy I introduced in my first posting to this blog:
Verse and its proper counterpart prose are contrasting conventions for representing speech — speech clarified, speech refined. Each can be used in poems, in short or extended narratives, in essays, in dramatic works, in reports, in précis. They are contrasted primarily in rhythm and compactness: prose tends to be looser, with rhythms governed by the paragraph and little ornamentation; verse tends to be tighter, with rhythms governed by the line, and using repetition emphatically to maintain structure: devices like rhyme, alliteration, repeating patterns of stressed and unstressed syllables, and, in even the most free of verse, a very tight focus on each word, rather than each sentence.
That is, verse and prose are a proper contrastive pair. So are fiction and non-fiction[vi] for purposes of this taxonomy. Fiction and poetry are not (see last ¶). But in literature, the most reliable contrastive pair is the fantastic and the mimetic,[vii] and the fantastic is the older (but not by much) and more numerous category. The proper contrast to the novel in this my view is the romance. Contributing to the former strain are Chaucer, Defoe, Richardson, Austen, Dickens, George Eliot, Trollope, Joyce, Patrick O'Brian and Dean Hughes. Contributing to the latter — Langland, Sterne, Swift, the sisters Brontë, Byron, Kipling, Joyce, Tolkien and Orson Scott Card. Yes: science fiction is a form of romance, and the only science most of it utilizes is sociology. I know that it used to be called by its practitioners "scientifiction," but it shares with the mystery, the thriller, the spy novel, the love story we usually designate as a 'romance,' Dante's Commedia and the Revelation of John of Patmos, that larger world not constrained by the world available to our senses only (the proper arena of psychology, philology and sociology). And much of the production of Mormon literature is, I submit, in the realm of fantasy, not mimesis.
Why is this so? I think it is because of the same forces that drove Langland to write, and revise, and revise again[viii] over a period of perhaps 30 years, perhaps less. As I pointed out in "in verse # 15 : the alliterative resuscitation", King John lost Normandy to France in 1204 and signed the Magna Carta in 1215, beginning the long process of separation between England and France, a process that had run its course by 1509, with the death of Henry VII. Perhaps the earliest alliterative poem in Middle English, Laȝamon's Brut, runs to 16,095 lines, expanding on its sources with, among other things, "an enlarged section on the life and exploits of King Arthur."[ix] I speculated then that the resurrection of Arthur as an English (and perhaps British) hero, one who features heavily in the poems of the Alliterative Revival, may result from the disgust of King John's subjects with his perceived fecklessness as a leader, and a more generalized discontent with Norman rule. I don't believe that Laȝamon thought he was writing history; I think he thought he was creating myth, much as Vergil did in his great fantasy Aeneid wherein he creates an origin myth for Rome. This idea of mine finds an echo, but not its source, in that Wikipedia article: "Several original passages in the poem — at least in accordance with the present knowledge of extant texts from the Middle Ages — suggest Layamon was interested in carving out the history of the Britons as the people 'who first possessed the land of the English.'"[x] That is just to say that Laȝamon, in revising his sources — one of which was the Anglo-Norman Roman de Brut of Wace, a 15,000-line poem[xi] — was drawing on Anglo-Saxon and Welsh and Cornish heroes and ideas and traditions, then deliberately casting them in an old-fashioned verse form that hadn't been favored in the courts of rulers for over 200 years. Brut, his long poem, is dated by Baugh and Malone to circa 1189-1206, and in the Wikipedia article to between 1190 and 1215,[xii] right at the end of John Lackland's reign (I argued all this more extensively in "in verse # 15"). Chaucer, one hundred and fifty years later, by contrast, is a court poet more comfortable with his contemporary society than Laȝamon,
"So," you say, or is that sigh, "what?" Well, let me posit with Baugh and Malone that the fantastic is the response of the outsider to a world (s)he is not comfortable in, and the mimetic of the insider to a world where (s)he is more at ease. That might explain why so much of contemporary Mormon literature is expressed in one or another of the forms of fantasy, and why so much less of it occupies the mimetic sphere. Let me be clear: I am talking about works here, not authors. I am talking about trends, in a fluid environment, drawing on my investigation of Piers the Ploughman and other poems of the Alliterative Revival, in the context of a blog about the uses of verse, to suggest a theory of Mormon lit. None of these ideas are original with me, none of this is new. But Mormon literature begins with a new mythology[xiii] resonant with an earlier world, providing a new history of the foundation of its nation, offering a sharp critique of the nation's culture, attempting to restore an old form to useful life, offering dream visions of alienation and histories of the clash of civilizations on a grand scale.
But hold on, I hear you say; does that really describe my world?
Your turn.

[xiii] If a certain commenter frequenting the Salt Lake Tribune's pages under the handle "Joseph's Myth" only understood the uses of mythology, he would drop that handle like a hot potato — but he's a mimetic mind confronting a fantastic world.

Super_Collider - Raw Digits review thread
from nuisance music http://www.nuisance.org.uk
A Review of Raw Digits by Super_Collider Writtten by Michael Kemp Since the electricity & critical acclaim greeting 1999's "Head On", Jamie Lidell & Cristian Vogel (the disparate parts that make up Super_Collider) haven't been idle - spending the last 2 years chasing the muse from Brighton to Berlin to Barcelona - and voyaging back from the furthest reaches of inner space with the stunning "Raw Digits" album. Now, many people have used up much oxygen in the past bitching about a "music of the future" or lack of thereof, but just when you thought that such a concept was merely copy on an adman's desk - Super_Collider morph in & take you right there, and leave you, dizzy, without maps, to find your way floating formless in the heart of a parallel dance universe. Initially perplexing, you wake one morning with the finely-crafted music singing in your veins - and what music - finding yourself travelled and blissfully happy. How can such music be simultaneously smooth as silk and totally disorientating? Jamie's incredible vocal stylings - the boy sings like an angel, albeit a knowing angel and funky as hell - snatches of a disembodied Stevie Wonder (circa "Innervisions") in the Twilight Zone perhaps - and then some - swooping & rising up like a kite on thermal currents of warm air - underpinned by a bed of Vogel's dark Golem electronica. On paper it looks like it shouldn't work - but dancing with atoms & molecules, it does - exquisite sonic iceflows courtesy of Cristian cascading from ear to ear, speaker to speaker - an arranged marriage in android heaven. From the opening pulses of "Messagesacomin" ("that you just cannot decipher") to the storming intelligent dancefloor full-on finale of "Collide N Conquer", this is one extraordinary feat of engineering and one mutant motherfucker of a soul experience for mind and body alike, tripping, travelling with light, shapeshifting, seamless - one that no self respecting home should be without. Ominous footsteps filled with light heralding "In The Beams", the spooky weirdsville & hermit dust that is "Bug Trackin"; the ocean of things falling apart & reassembling in the beautiful "Gravity Rearranging" - impossible to adequately describe - it's sweet soul music, but not as we know it Jim (more fool us. And, as it is often said: a fool and his money will soon party). Infectious beats for the feet, ghost particles of cosmic dust in the machine, warm love for the soul turned inside out - I feel we are in the presence of something seminal here - and so much fun. How divine that humanoids, exhausted with recycling & creating makeshift hybrids from past-era industrial refuse, have begun to build their own future, digit by digit. "And the future? It's already here on this album" |
