NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Indian officials have seized a record $55 million (32 million pounds) in cash, as well as large amounts of liquor and illegal drugs, destined to buy off voters in India's election, the Election Commission said on Monday, as the mammoth vote drew to a close.
The haul was the biggest in Indian electoral history, which has long been marred by allegations of politicians distributing cash, alcohol and food to win support.
At the last general election in 2009, authorities captured 1.9 billion rupees ($32 million) in cash intended to buy votes. Officials privately concede that the real total is far higher than that actually found.
The Election Commission also discovered 22.5 million litres (5.94 million gallons) of alcohol and about 185,000 kg of drugs during searches over a lengthy election campaign that included five weeks of actual voting to reach India's electorate of 815 million people.
Votes will be counted on Friday.
"It is a tough challenge for the Election Commission to check the use of 'money power'," said P.K. Dash, who leads the expenditure monitoring effort at the agency.
He said that more than 11,000 "flying squads" were deployed to record illegal behaviour, and thousands of checkpoints helped catch trucks ferrying liquor. Cash was found in many hiding places, including funeral vans and the door panels of cars.
The Election Commission set a campaign spending limit of 7 million rupees for each of the 543 parliamentary seats at stake in the 2014 election, but officials believe that many candidates spent several times that figure, much of it surreptitiously.
Andhra Pradesh state in the southeast of the country topped the "dirty money" list with $25.5 million of cash seized, more than five times the amount apprehended in the next highest state - Karnataka to the west at $4.7 million.
Much illegal funding for candidates in India's elections comes from businessmen and even corporations, analysts say, reinforcing the view of many Indians that an unholy nexus between business and politics lies at the heart of rampant corruption.
State funding has been mooted in the past as a way of curtailing illicit funding, but the idea has never taken off.
Critics say a first-past-the-post system for electing lawmakers means the pressure on candidates to outspend their rivals is intense. Political parties also end up fielding candidates who show they can pay their way, analysts say.

The Prepaid Press Expo Grows 35% in 2009
* Reuters is not responsible for the content in this press release.
Largest Prepaid Show Has Banner Year AVENTURA, Fla.--(Business Wire)-- The Prepaid Press Expo 2009, the premier gathering of the prepaid services industry, ended Thursday, August 20th at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. Industry professionals from all of the segments of the prepaid calling card, wireless and gift and debit card industries converged to meet with retailers, distributors and others who are involved in the fast growing prepaid industry. This year, tppEXPO featured 50 exhibitors, 12 corporate sponsors and 9 media partners. With attendee registration over 1,500, it was the biggest event for the prepaid industry. The expanded exhibit hall showcased providers from all facets of prepaid: long distance, wireless, payments, gift cards, promotions, among others. Despite slow economic times, attendance increased 35% over 2008, clearly exemplifying the growth in prepaid services. Particularly in a slow economy, prepaid services enable consumers to better manage their budgets, and limit excessive spending. "The first Prepaid Press Expo last year was the re-birth of the industry," says Pete Pattullo, CEO of NetworkIP, and sponsor of the Gladiators of Prepaid Long Distance Pavilion and Toga Party. "The attendance for the 2009 Prepaid Press Expo increased by more than a third! WOW! Now is not the time to rest on our past successes. Just like the industry itself, we will keep evolving and adapting this event to continue to provide value!" Robin Tobias, Show Producer, adds, "We are thrilled with our recent turnout, and are eager to start planning for tppEXPO 2010. Our goal is to provide the best possible forum for prepaid service providers, and look forward to adapting and improving our event to meet the needs of this dynamic industry." tppEXPO`09 thanks its sponsors for their support: Emperor - NetworkIP; Senator - Auris, Blue Label USA, Direct Wholesale, Digitalk, Futura Card Services, InComm, Total Call International, and TransCard; Centurion - Global Service Solutions, Lunex Group, and TelTech Systems. tppEXPO also thanks conference partner, The PELORUS Group, and our speakers for their participation. Visit tppEXPO`09 sponsors/exhibitors in our Virtual Exhibit Hall, on www.prepaidpressexpo.com, through December. The exhibit hall for tppEXPO`10 will open to previous sponsors/exhibitors in October; to all industry participants in January.

Love the glitter clothespins! They're on my to do list...that seems to keep growing every Monday!
Success in Second GradeOHHHHH I just had an idea while watching! I only have a bulletin board "stip" in the hall to hang student work/art. Thus I end up using lots of sticky tack to put it all over the walls. I think i will make some glitter clothespins, hotglue a thumbtack on the back and these will look fabulous in the hall to hang artwork! No holes in student artwork!
ReplyDeleteLOL. Of course your project involved glitter! It came out great.
✿Grade School Giggles✿Ha ha! I actually linked up and I made glitter clothespins too! Glitter clothespins rock! High five!
First Grade BrainLove it! I have this on my to do list for this summer.
~Diving Into LearningI absolutely must have these!! I've always wanted to work with mod podge, and and this is a great first project!! I'm so psyched about this!!!
The Daily AlphabetLOVE the glitter clothespins!!! I found some already made at Michael's but I really like the idea of making your own, plus it's prob a lot cheaper. Thanks for sharing!!!
Lovely Literacy and More

Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound OffHehe. It's pretty hard and almost mind-boggling to listen to this thing on one go, one does feel kind of tempted to turn this off, that's where the instability of my rating for this comes from. But if you do this on one go, man. It. Is. Bliss.

Mounting Option #1
Mounting Option #2
Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of an acrylic print. Your image gets printed directly onto the back of a 1/4" thick sheet of clear acrylic.
The image is the art - it doesn't get any cleaner than that!
All acrylic prints ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with four aluminum mounting posts (Option #1) or hanging wire (Option #2).
The high gloss of the acrylic sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.
There are two different ways to mount your acrylic print.
Option #1 (Mounting Posts) - Attach your print to your wall with four aluminum mounting posts. The cylindrical cap of each mounting post can be removed, allowing you to thread a small screw along the center axis of the of post and into the wall. When you're finished, simply reattached each cap, and you're done. The mounting posts act as stand-offs and keep your print separated from the wall by 1". All of the required mounting hardware (i.e. posts, screws, and wall anchors) is included with your print. Click here for mounting details.
Option #2 (Hanging Wire) - With this option, your acrylic print is attached to a 1/4" thick black board which has a wooden frame and hanging wire attached to the back. There are no metal mounting posts at the corners. Simply put a nail in your wall, hang your print from the hanging wire, and you're done. Due to the thickness of the black board and mounting frame, your print is separated from the wall by 1.50" Click here for mounting details.
At the end of the day when the golden sun shines its last rays onto the tennis court. The battered tennis ball lies resting on the baseline casting its shadow It patiently waits for someone to pick it up and return it home in its plastic container.

PhotoFast GM3000EX - USB 3.0 ExpressCard Host
PhotoFast GM3000EX - USB 3.0 ExpressCard Host
Taipei, Taiwan. Apr. 12th 2010 - PhotoFast Global Inc. a pioneer in creative, high quality and extreme performance flash-based storage manufacturer, today revealed its new line up of USB 3.0 accessories. Relied the new standard and host controller introduced to the market, PhotoFast demand to bring even higher transfer rates to meet the bottleneck where every user has experienced before.
The new USB 3.0 standard is a potential opportunity for user to appreciate the full transfer rate from new external enclosure that doesn't degrades magnetic HDD or SSD. Its new 4.8Gbps band width which is 10 times faster than USB2.0 will increase 3 - 4 times of your existing drives.
We are not the first manufacturer making USB 3.0 host because we wanted to do it right. Before the launch of GM3000EX, what's available on the market is with a protrudent plastic which needs to be inserted and pull out on each travel. Well, we couldn't stand it this way so we redesigned a hidden Type A female connector, which makes the whole thing much delightful.
The power supply come out of ExpressCard slot is very limited. The early developed standard allowing us to acquire around 300mA, that is enough for some small portable devices but not magnetic HDD. Instead of other similar products, we don't offer just an extra cable for getting power from another USB port. We combine it into the same cable that allowing user to connect external USB 3.0 devices. As most USB 3.0 HDD enclosures selling now is with a Type B micro female connector. The split cable (Y Cable) included comes very handy in practical.
PhotoFast GM3000EX - USB 3.0 ExpressCard Host
- Getting 1 port of USB 3.0 from ExpressCard slot
- USB 3.0 transfer rate is way faster than USB 2.0
- Unique design where hides in the ExpressCard slot
- Split Cable (Y Cable) allows up to 800 mA power supply from the Laptop

We'll be getting a special tour where we go behind the scenes with the zookeepers. We'll getting close up with some of the animals – but not too close!
The zoo has over 400 animals and is one of the world's oldest and popular zoos. We'll be learning about wild animals and those which are endangered.
The trip will be subsidised and is open from children aged 8-16 years. If you'd like more information, please email us at email@example.com
]]>It's a friendly and informal atmosphere; you can talk as much or as little as you want. People share ideas of what helps them and it's a supportive environment to make new friends.
Our next call takes place on Wednesday 26th November at 7.15 p.m.
Email firstname.lastname@example.com if you would like more details.
]]>What will be involved?
Here's what Gemma told Irish Stammering Association about her project:
"If you agree to take part in the study, you and I will meet for an "interview/conversation" where I will ask you questions about your life as a person who stammers and experiences you have had making friends. This should last between 30 minutes to one hour at the most. With your permission, I will audio record the conversation so that I will be able to write out the details of it afterwards (all identifying information will be removed, making it anonymous)."
Examples of questions:
What are your memories of your first friends in school?
And do you remember having a stammer at this time?
As you have grown up, has having a stammer impacted on your confidence when talking to new people and forming friendships?
Gemma is looking to talk to people aged 21 and older, and who speak English as a first language. If you are interested in taking
part, please send Gemma an email on firstname.lastname@example.com and she will send you on the information pack about the study.
]]>The main outcome of the session will be for participants to engage more effectively when presenting.
During the course participants will develop essential presentation skills and increase personal presence. There will also be opportunities to discuss and address issues relating to stammering when presenting.
When: Sunday 16th November & Sunday 23rd November
11 am to 2 pm each day
Where: Dublin city centre location
Who: This course is aimed at adults who stammer who want to learn how to approach preparing and giving a presentation or speech.
What: The course is led by Donal Courtney of Playact and Gaiety School of Acting. Donal is an actor, director, writer and teacher who believes that acting skills can be applied in different environments to enhance and improve confidence levels. He has a wealth of experience in providing presentation skills workshops in both the private and public sector
Cost: €50 for members
€70 for non members which includes a years membership of ISA
This course is subsidised with funds gratefully received from Hospital Saturday Fund
Assistance with travel costs is available
How: Please contact us on firstname.lastname@example.com if you wish to reserve a place or to get more information
It is essential that participants be available for both sessions to get the full benefit of the course

There will be a range of speakers throughout the day including people who stutter and professionals who work in the field including speech and language therapists.
The day will also feature a breakout session for parents and an ISAYiT! drama group for young people who stutter facilitated by the Gaiety School of Acting.
Once again, there will be a group running for young people and teenagers to meet and talk about stammering.
The day starts at 10 a.m. and runs until 4.30 p.m. Admission is free; refreshments will be served.

]]>Irish Stammering Association is the only national organisation representing people who stammer and their families and supporting professionals working in the field. Stammering is a hidden disability. Like many other communication disabilities, the level of disadvantage is not always apparent and often immeasurable. Stammering can lead to disadvantage through limiting access to social interaction, education and training and vocational opportunities. ISA aims to limit the impact of exclusion through offering non-therapeutic supports to the community connected by stammering. Worldwide research points to improved quality of life and reduced disadvantage through involvement with agencies like ISA.
Withdrawal of core funding means that ISA would not be able to retain two part-time staff and would pose a threat to the provision of services such as monthly Skype group for teenagers who stammer, ISAYiT! children's drama project for young people who stammer, involvement in National Stammering Awareness Day, Irish Stammering Association Annual Conference, Leadership Skills Project for women who stammer, Phone support group for women who stammer, as well as compiling online and printed resources for parents of children who stammer and maintenance of our website.
]]>We developed characters from objects, building these into a story involving legendary artist Matilda Treebody. You can see some of her amazing work in the photos!
Fear, happiness and revenge ere themes to draw on in the workshop sessions and gave rise to some exciting and intriguing dialogues between our young actors.
The youngsters added music to the scenes and put on an award winning performance to much applause from the audience.
Confidence was boosted, speaking, listening, acting and communication skills were all developed, as well as a healthy sense of fun and friendship… what was it like to meet other kids who stutter…? "Fantastic" was the reply from one of the ISAYiT! crew.
Special thanks to the Gaiety School of Acting for facilitating ISAYiT!
We'll be running another one-day workshop this Autumn.

]]>Announcing the Irish Stammering Association summer drama camp in
Dublin for young people who stammer between ages 8 to 17 years.
ISAYiT! camp takes place from 7th to 11th July from 10am to 2pm each
day and will be held in Temple Bar. There will be games, activities,
drama, people to meet and lots of fun, of course.
Cost is €100 for week. Text or call Veronica & Aisling on 086 0736328 for more information or to book a place.
ISAYiT! drama camps offer young people who stammer an opportunity to
express themselves creatively among a group of their peers in an
environment where they will not be judged by how they speak.
Feedback from children and parents from previous groups has been very
positive. From ISAYiT! participants…
"I can be myself"
"I was able to talk in front of an audience"
"Don't worry, it doesn't have to be perfect"
"I had a great time and met lots of new friends"
Parents said, my child learned…
"that she can do things and not to assume she can't"
"to take risks and relax"
"that he's not the only one and he's more confident in himself"

Aloha Cottonwood It is hard to believe that I am coming up to the 10 year mark of my departure from the place I called my home for 13 years. I have so many wonderful memories of my time there and the people I grew to know and love. I think about you all very often. It still amazes me when I get a glimpse of how Gods plan is working out in my life. I am confident that it was Gods plan for me to be in Cottonwood with all of you. My experience there has had a lasting influence on my life. God used so many of you to bless me then and prepare for where I am now. This slightly altered verse kinda says it all I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart and, no matter where I am or what I am doing, all of you share in Gods grace with me. God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus. And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christto the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:3-11 In case you are wondering, I am doing well and living on Maui Buzz Dahlen

text: I'm curious, whether or not S Jax deserves to be on the list, what difference does that make? I'm not sure some of the RBs on it deserve to be on it (see huh and HUH), and not mentioning a few (e.g. William Andrews), who admittedly I've never heard of. Name another Ram of the St. Louis era (by the way where's Marshall Faulk), who deserves to be on the list at their positions. MAYBE Kurt Warner; and MAYBE Issac Bruce. That's just my take and I'm only expressing my opinion not disparaging yours or anyone else's.

Nana Ekua Brew-Hammond, a Ghanaian-American writer living in New York who wrote the heavy coming-of-age novel The Powder Necklace, recently interviewed me for her blog, People Who Write. She asked the best questions!
The summer 2014 issue of Resource features an article I wrote that I'm extremely proud of. I interviewed the founder of Flashes of Hope, a nonprofit that takes photographs of children with cancer, to talk about how the portraits empower these children. The professional portraits also serve as lasting mementos for the families of the 25% of the children photographed who don't survive. The nonprofit shows just how powerful art can be.
Cancer is a personal subject for me. This summer I did a few readings from a chapter I wrote called "Grief Gone Wild" about the summer I lost both of my grandmothers to cancer a month apart from each other. I was glad to likewise get to put my creative nonfiction to positive use to write this article on Flashes of Hope and show that moments of strength, beauty and even joy can be found even in the midst of trying times.
If you haven't figured it out by now, I'm just a liiiiittle obsessed with taking quizzes. I especially love the Buzzfeed ones. Don't judge.
A while back I saw the Buzzfeed quiz "Who Would Play Your Mom In The Movie Version of Your Life?" Of course I had to take it. I've spent some time daydreaming what actors might play my family in a film adaptation of my memoir. I took the quiz and it revealed Sofia Vergara (from "Modern Family") should play my mom! Well that made good sense to me. My mom is one hot mama!
So when I saw they now had a quiz called "Who Would Play Your Dad in the Movie Version of Your Life?" I took it immediately. I had always thought Kelsey Grammer (you know, Frasier) would be a good fit for my dad. Buzzfeed thought otherwise. They picked Samuel L. Jackson!
Pause just a moment to picture a family with Sofia Vergara as the mother and Samuel L. Jackson as the father. …Are you picturing it? Welcome to the family!
Frances Bean Cobain turns 22 today!
The only daughter of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love has been in the spotlight since the time she was was born. When I was in high school one of my best friends was a huge Nirvana fan, and I pretty much had Hole's Live Through This on constant repeat.
I was pretty excited to stumble across some photos that indicated Frances Bean's literary tastes include the Beats! Here are a couple of photographs of her reading Jack Kerouac's The Dharma Bums: pic 1, pic 2, pic 3. (Side note::: I tried to dye my hair pink with Kool-Aid when I was in high school, but apart from a pink neck, it did not work for me. I still wish I had pink hair….)
And here is a photo reportedly of Francs Bean Cobain's bookshelf, which includes:
Jack Kerouac's Windblown World
Jack Kerouac's Visions of Gerard
Jack Kerouac's Desolation Angels
William S. Burroughs' Exterminator!
William S. Burroughs' Naked Lunch
William S. Burroughs' Queer
Allen Ginsberg's Collected Poems: 1947-1997
These photos of Frances Bean Cobain reading the Beats are on my Beats board on Pinterest.
I have to say, Herbert Huncke is one of the most fascinating characters associated with the so-called Beat Generation. He came from a middle-class family in Greenfield, Massachusetts, and was raised in Chicago, but left all that behind when his parents divorced to live the life of a hobo. He jumped trains across America and then hitched a ride to New York City. When he got dropped off on the Upper West Side, he bought himself a boutonniere and hoofed it to Times Square. It was through Huncke that the word "beat" made it into Jack Kerouac's lexicon.
Despite his influence and his own writing, there wasn't a book devoted to this incredibly fascinating fellow until last year when Hilary Holladay published American Hipster: A Life of Herbert Huncke, The Times Square Hustler Who Inspired the Beat Movement. Here's the synopsis from Barnes & Noble:
American Hipster: The Life of Herbert Huncke, The Times Square Hustler Who Inspired the Beat Movement tells the tale of a New York sex worker and heroin addict whose unrepentant deviance caught the imagination of Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, and William S. Burroughs. Teetering between exhaustion and existential despair, Huncke (rhymes with "junky") often said, "I'm beat, man." His line gave Kerouac the label for a down-at-the-heels generation seeking spiritual sustenance as well as "kicks" in post-war America.
Recognizable portraits of Huncke appear in Junky (1953), Burroughs's acerbic account of his own heroin addiction; "Howl" (1956), the long, sexually explicit poem that launched Ginsberg's career; and On the Road (1957), Kerouac's best-selling novel that immortalized the Beat Generation. But it wasn't just Huncke the character that fascinated these writers: they loved his stories. Kerouac called him a "genius" of a storyteller and "a perfect writer." His famous friends helped Huncke find publishers for his stories.
Biographies of Kerouac and the others pay glancing tribute to Huncke's role in shaping the Beat Movement, yet no one until now has told his entire life story. American Hipster explores Huncke's youthful escapades in Chicago; his complicated alliances with the Beat writers and with sex researcher Alfred Kinsey; and his adventures on the road, at sea, and in prison. It also covers his tumultuous relationship with his partner Louis Cartwright, whose 1994 murder remains unsolved, and his idiosyncratic career as an author and pop-culture icon.
Written by Hilary Holladay, a professor of American literature, the book offers a new way of looking at the whole Beat Movement. It draws on Holladay's interviews with Huncke's friends and associates, including representatives of the literary estates of Kerouac, Ginsberg, Burroughs, and Huncke; her examination of Huncke's unpublished correspondence and journals at Columbia University; and her longtime study of the Beat Movement.
It's good to see Herbert Huncke finally getting remembered.
Huncke passed away on this day in 1996. He was still residing in New York City.
Yesterday I wrote about Allen Ginsberg's connection to Timothy Leary and the CIA. I've already told you before that the Beat Generation influenced The Beatles, and today I'm here to tell you John Lennon had a connection to Timothy Leary and the FBI. Welcome back to Conspiracy Theory week!
Years ago, I went to the Angelica to see the film Jesus Camp, which I reviewed for Burnside Writers Collective. During the screening, a woman burst into the theatre and shouted:
The war is over! John Lennon lost!
Only in New York, right?! I think she was in the wrong room. The year was 2006, and another film was out at that time: The U.S. vs. John Lennon. That film pointed to evidence that the US government had tried to silence John Lennon, who had become increasingly counter-cultural as the years wore on and influential in his anti-war protests. From what I've read, it is alleged that, under Nixon, the government tried to deport Lennon, who was living in New York when he was fatally shot.
Most know the story of John Lennon's murder outside the Dakota on December 8, 1980, as the lone act of Mark David Chapman, who plead guilty. He was examined at Bellevue Hospital—where Beat icons William S. Burroughs, Joan Vollmer Adams Burroughs, Carl Solomon, and Allen Ginsberg spent time (read my book Burning Furiously Beautiful for more details!)—and believed to be psychotic. He had been carrying J. D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye at the time of his murder and said it "holds many answers." However, Chapman eventually decided he wanted the insanity defense dropped, and he plead guilty. He's been in jail ever since, denied parole at every appeal. In August of this year he'll be up for his next parole hearing.
Conspiracy theorists hold that the US government killed John Lennon.
Plug in a search online for "John Lennon murder conspiracy," and you'll find dozens of websites devoted to allegations that the US government and FBI were involved in The Beatles' death.
Of course some conspiracy theorists also say Paul is dead.
It's widely acknowledged that the Beat Generation writers experimented with drugs, which influenced both the content and style of their writing. I've written before about how Allen Ginsberg's drug use shaped his writing when he had a vision while reading William Blake, forever guiding his poetry.
But dear old Allen Ginsberg was also leery of America's hand in the drug trade.
Let me backtrack a moment. In 1960 Allen Ginsberg became friends with Timothy Leary. Timothy Leary was an American psychologist born on October 22, 1920, in Springfield, Massachusetts—meaning he'd been born near Herbert Huncke, Jack Kerouac, and John Clellon Holmes a little after Huncke was born and a little before Kerouac and Holmes were born. At Harvard University—which William S. Burroughs also attended—Leary conducted experiments involving psychedelic drugs for the Harvard Psilocybin Project.
The friendship between Ginsberg and Leary led to the psychedelic revolution, with Leary popularizing the phrase:
"Turn on, tune in, drop out"
Timothy Leary invoked Socrates when he said:
"Question authority"
The irony of this, though, is that Leary didn't drop out or subvert authority. Much like the way the CIA funded abstract expressionism, Leary was doing research at an ever-prestigious Ivy League college which consisted of experimenting on prisoners (see the Concord Prison Experiment). This isn't all that different than in the 1950s when the CIA launched Project MKULTRA, which administered LSD to unwitting participants as a means toward experimenting with mind control. In fact, prior to meeting Leary, in 1959 Ginsberg participated in experimental studies of LSD at Stanford University, which it turned out were administered by psychologists working for the CIA to develop mind-control drugs. Leary also began experimenting on writers.
Peter Conners' book White Hand Society: The Psychedelic Partnership of Timothy Leary & Allen Ginsberg, published by City Lights in 2010, alleges that Leary used Ginsberg to further publicize his studies. Here's the marketing copy for the book from City Lights:
In 1960 Timothy Leary was not yet famous — or infamous — and Allen Ginsberg was both. Leary, eager to expand his experiments at the Harvard Psilocybin Project to include accomplished artists and writers, knew that Ginsberg held the key to bohemia's elite. Ginsberg, fresh from his first experience with hallucinogenic mushrooms in Mexico, was eager to promote the spiritual possibilities of psychedelic use. Thus, "America's most conspicuous beatnik" was recruited as Ambassador of Psilocybin under the auspices of an Ivy League professor, and together they launched the psychedelic revolution and turned on the hippie generation.
White Hand Society weaves a fascinating and entertaining tale of the life, times and friendship of these two larger-than-life figures and the incredible impact their relationship had on America. Peter Conners has gathered hundreds of pages of letters, documents, studies, FBI files, and other primary resources that shed new light on their relationship, and a veritable who's who of artists and cultural figures appear along the way, including Jack Kerouac, William Burroughs, Thelonious Monk, Willem de Kooning, and Barney Rosset. The story of the "psychedelic partnership" of two of the most famous, charismatic and controversial members of America's counterculture brings together a multitude of major figures from politics, the arts, and the intersection of intellectual life and outlaw culture in a way that sheds new light on the dawn of the 1960s.
Years later, 1967 to be exact, this conversation between Leary and Ginsberg took place about "dropping out":
Ginsberg: For instance, you haven't dropped out, Tim. You dropped out of your job as a psychology teacher in Harvard. Now, what you've dropped into is, one: a highly complicated series of arrangements for lecturing and for putting on the festival…
Leary: Well, I'm dropped out of that.
Ginsberg: But you're not dropped out of the very highly complicated legal constitutional appeal, which you feel a sentimental regard for, as I do. You haven't dropped out of being the financial provider for Milbrook, and you haven't dropped out of planning and conducting community organization and participating in it. And that community organization is related to the national community, too. Either through the Supreme Court, or through the very existence of the dollar that is exchanged for you to pay your lawyers, or to take money to pay your lawyers in the theatre. So you can't drop out, like DROP OUT, 'cause you haven't.
The year after that, Ginsberg penned an article called "Remarks on Leary's Politics of Ecstasy" for The Village Voice, in which he suggested the American government was trying to silence Leary:
Timothy Leary quit public life to write a book in Mexico some years ago, but he was searched by Agents of Government as he went to cross borders, arrested for possession of some herb, and thus forced to interrupt his writing, return to public action, and defend his person from attack by the State. So he traveled to academies and lectured to the young, & thus he paid large legal fees required by the State & thus maintained an Ashram of fellow seekers well known in Millbrook. Agents of Government raided and repeated abused the utopia, whereupon Dr. Leary was obliged to be Dr. Leary and lecture more to raise money for his family of imprisoned friends. Agents of Government concluded this phase of prosecution with a piece of Socratic irony so blatantly echoing an old Greek injustice that the vulgar rhetoric of a Tyrannous State would need only be quoted to be recognized, were it not for the fact that these States are by now so plagued with Tyrannously inspired chaos and public communication so flooded with images of State Atrocity from the alleys of Saigon to the parks of Chicago that official public conscience here now, as memorably in Russia and Germany, is shocked, dumbed & amnesiac.
Ginsberg grew to become leery of the government's hand in drugs. Researching, Ginsberg became convinced that the CIA was involved in drug trafficking. Ginsberg's poem "CIA Dope Calypso" uses the following refrain:
Supported by the CIA
Wikipedia gives a quick summary of Ginsberg's conspiracy theory that the CIA profited off of drugs:
Through his own drug use, and the drug use of his friends and associates, Ginsberg became more and more preoccupied with the American government's relationship to drug use within and outside the nation. He worked closely with Alfred W. McCoy who was writing The Politics of Heroin in Southeast Asia which tracked the history of the American government's involvement in illegal opium dealing around the world. This would affirm Ginsberg's suspicions that the government and the CIA were involved in drug trafficking. In addition to working with McCoy, Ginsberg personally confronted Richard Helms, the director of the CIA in the 1970s, but he was simply brushed off as being "full of beans". Allen wrote many essays and articles, researching and compiling evidence of CIA's involvement, but it would take ten years, and the publication of McCoy's book in 1972, before anyone took him seriously. In 1978 Allen received a note from the chief editor of the New York Times, apologizing for not taking his allegations seriously so many years previous.[83]
Despite our notions of how counter-cultural drug use is its history is steeped in academia and politics. Even so-called counter-cultural writers theorize the government is behind drug trafficking.
Of course there are others who'd suggest that it was Timothy Leary and Allen Ginsberg who were conspiring to change the world.

It wasn't a big fire, the boxes already turned to ash. But something about the bright flames lighting the darkness, and the sounds of that burning tree reminded me of everything we'd anticipated during Advent and celebrated during Christmas. And for a moment standing around a fir smelling fire, with the hum of low conversation and mexicanjumpingbain's occasional watch this one! I had an Epiphany. Perfectly timed, of course.
C.S. Lewis said: We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade, the presence of God. The world is crowded with Him. He walks everywhere incognito. And the incognito is not always easy to penetrate. The real labor is to attend. In fact to come awake. Still more to remain awake.
I was fully awake on Tuesday with my Epiphany that it was a day worth celebrating and toasting. Doesn't every day hold the potential of some never before seen grace? If I can only remain awake...
