Should we deviate from authenticity in order to "game" women?
Not everyone wants to deviate from authenticity, devote time, money, resource and brain cycles in order to "game" women. Indeed, should we try to live according to the values of puerile female inclinations - fierce and frenzied incitement exacerbated by the exponential pandering to her position with modernist, liberal internationalist disordering and the YKW prohibition of social classification for Whites?
A better sort, the kind who like themselves and their kind, prefer to display power by identifying one who is an acutely appropriate match in reconstructing their type and genetic system, together with whom to explore life. Further, they recognize that playing the field leads to terrible injustice regarding our social capital, demoralizes, undermines trust and moral warrant to defend ourselves as a people.
However, the preference of those who would rather not "game" needs to be institutionalized so that their choice does not get diverted into gaming where they rather search for an appropriate partner; as opposed to (another) one they tricked, a woman who could be another man's appropriate wife, taken through the instigated anxiety of going out of character and into the "fair game" of boundless competition.
As opposed to gaming what would be someone's singularly important mate or gaming whorey left-overs or leaving whorey left-overs…
Thus, an endorsement for the option of sex and monogamy as sacrament and voluntary enclaves in that recognition.

Prof.MacDonald: Psychological Mechanism of White Dispossession
MacDonald At Stockholm, Sweden, April 20th 2015

Individual and group relation on proper ontological grounds
- By Dr. Graham Lister
Look, I don't have the time or inclination to point-out the half-baked thinking of MR's commentators or interviewed guests (if I think them to be in error). Kevin MacDonald can defend himself can he not? After all, if his ideas are completely robust how can he be subject to a 'humiliation'? All ideas, political, philosophical and scientific, have to be stress-tested in order to investigate their validity. Why anyone is so much of a 'special snowflake' that they get an apriori exemption from this process is beyond me.
Now, no-one that's sane thinks the individual per se can or should be 'abolished', but people have very odd and damaging ideas about what 'the individual' is and what it represents - such that over the longer term the ideology of 'individualism' has extremely deleterious effects as its model of reality is not in alignment with the true social ontology. Human beings, including Europeans, evolved in small, highly social/group orientated bands. It's really not rocket science to understand that variation in fitness is partitioned into a group element and an individual element (whilst obviously selecting for or against specific alleles and associated phenotypic traits). In fact, such an observation mathematically and logically flows from basic population genetics, which Hamilton went on to describe as 'inclusive fitness' and the importance of relatedness to the evolution of behaviour and life history traits (like female biased sex-ratios in the Hymenoptera etc). Price simplified inclusive fitness theory with his work. And it's developed since. Steven Frank's book on social evolution is still the best starting point for anyone seriously interested in the topic.
Returning to the politics and philosophy parts of the discussion, Aristotle is my favourite thinker in these areas. First of all, he would suggest that a proper balance between the 'parts' and the 'whole' (individuals and the group) is necessary for both to fully flourish. There is a mutual interdependence and reciprocity between the two levels of social reality. Secondly, Aristotle would suggest that there may be many ways to live (like being a Lockean liberal perhaps), but many ways to live are ultimately sub- optimal with the goal of full and genuine human flourishing. And this is true at both the individual level and the group level. And yes the interests of a given individual and a given group can be conflict (again this flows from very basic evolutionary biology and the game-theoretic issue of 'free-riders'). Thus there must be mechanisms for maintaining the health of both individuals and the collective. It starts by the recognition of the fact that the individual is social and utterly dependent upon the collective in numerous ways that liberal 'individualistic' ideology willfully ignores.
Ultimately, I reject liberalism as a set of false ideas about the human world - it has the ontology of humans both as individuals and as communities wrong. Bad ideas eventually result in bad consequences and one hopes vice versa. Thus, I am broadly an Aristotelian communitarian. And I think that must incorporate the realities of human nature (groupishness) and our bio-cultural differential status regarding different groups of human beings. Note, it's a political axis of differences (bio-cultural) that ultimately ends up in the Schmittian friend-enemy distinction, not some bullshit about equality vs inequalities except that I very naturally value my own well being and life more highly than a random stranger's and I also value the life of my extended community both today and tomorrow (the idea of an intergenerational 'moral economy').
Being a non-liberal, I am against cheap all-encompassing forms of universalism or the moral plateau as philosophers call it. Rather I believe in a nested hierarchy of moral responsibility. I have much more moral duties to my own children than my next door neighbour's kids, let alone some family in China (that of course does not imply I, by default, hate people in China or wish them harm just that I feel I have minimal moral responsibilities towards them). But I do have some properly warranted moral responsibilities to my neighbourhood and my community. Moral responsibility varies with proximity (properly understood).
Roger Scruton writes about a hierarchy of moral responsibility often. Here he speaks about in the context of the absurd (and liberal) idea of 'animal rights.'
OK, I have previously attempted on many occasions to write about and explain my thoughts on topics such as societal homogeneity and social capital etc. I will not endlessly repeat myself.
As for the idiotic, paranoid reaction by some to my reappearance, it was simply a function of me taking a quick look at MR in a quite moment and seeing folks speculation about my death! And I posted some chucks from an essay I had been reading. I am starting to get to grips with using a tablet and MR as a site isn't the easiest to use; so out of laziness I didn't put the comments in quotation marks. Only when someone posted them to the front page as my own did I feel duty-bound to privately point out that fact. But they're still good points that I agree with about 90%
No coordination with Danny or GW etc. Seeing a conspiracy at every turn is how Jews think - they project onto others their own deeply ingrained mindset. It's both pathetic and undignified to follow that way of thinking quite so slavishly.
Speaking of slaves, can anyone seriously doubt the USA is a vassal state of Israel? The best superpower money can buy? And yet Americans still persist in their hurbris that they are the model Europeans 'must' follow? Look, if KM or indeed anyone else is pushing that as some sort of 'idea' they can go fuck themselves. Savvy?
If Mr. Bowery wishes to contribute to MR go for it. Who the fuck cares either way?

What it means to be human, Part 3
This essay, which is long (sorry about that) and quite detailed, picks up certain themes that were first introduced at MR five years ago. It is, more or less, a summation of my present understanding, as someone pondering the crisis of identity, power, and existence which we Europeans are facing everywhere in the West today. But it is also a contribution to MR's Ontology Project. As such, it is a modest step towards a firm proposal for a politics for the true European life.
One of the beautiful characteristics of existentialist thought is that an investigation of specific phenomena in the mind or in the lived life can begin with anything, and profitably so. This is because relatedness is inherent to it. All things, even opposites, are related, whereas fracture is the natural estate of non-existential thought. This is a particular theme of this post, in which I am trying to cohere the freedom, unity and Life which should, in my opinion, be the very meaning of nationalism in its 21st century struggle. Let us, then, take as our beginning this idea of struggle, and work from there.
In what struggle are nationalists truly engaged? Well, yes, the struggle for the future of our people: a struggle for survival, a struggle for autonomy, a struggle for homeland, a struggle to live unburdened by the racial Other. That is clear. A process of deliverance, of salvation, then. But also deliverance and salvation from the entire political, social, and economic form of the modern world, meaning from its economism, its egalitarianism, its "liberty" and "progress", its "tolerance" and universalism … even, for some, its democratism because that, too, is a modernist massifying ideology.

Standing Corrected on the "It's More Than That" to Liberalism's Definition
In citing Yockey's definition of liberalism, I do believe Tanstaafl captures some of the "it's a bit more than that" to the definition of liberalism that GW advised over and against the one that I was proffering in the interview with Metzger.
Fortunately for me (and for us as a race), it is not really contradictory of the definition which I would venture as most useful. Though it is, I admit, more articulate in some significant ways that GW would/does appreciate.
I would have liberalism be defined primarily as permission of the violation of the classification - which is the parameters of the group systemic organism of race.
Yockey, like GW, focuses even more meticulously on the individual (as well), to where liberalism would be the experimentation with going beyond the normal parameters of our biology as individuals as well.
That would have several "more than that" interesting implications which provide clues as to where GW was going.
One implication would indicate why GW focuses so much on the Ontology of who we authentically are as European group(s) and individuals. We cannot even know what liberalism is, entirely, or what is inauthentic response to liberaism, a reaction, until that is settled…

Competition's Ontological Adjustment:
Competition's authentic value as opposed to its having been the most overvalued, misinterpreted biological fact of European Peoples' interests (thank you Mr. and Ms. Dumb Bastard, Right-Winger).
This will not be a rigorous piece, rather it is meant to shed some light on a few important considerations by moving them through the terministic screens of a personal history. The issues taken into consideration are the over-valuation of competition - which corresponds closely with boiling everything down to equality/inequality being the problem, that is, the stupid right-wing position of being against "egalitarianism" - to the detriment of other methodological concerns in evaluation of qualitative identity.
Objectivism results in a susceptibility in Europeans to having their enemies shift close genetic identity into objectivist individualism and liberalism, leading to their adopting an array of absurdly affected, non-European identities. While there can be many such diversionary sub-identities, such as student/teacher of a particular non-European study at university, universalism, eastern mysticism, religion, of course, even foreign cuisine, any full treatment of diversionary identity must address sub-identities in music and sports – these will be a predominant theme here as I am familiar with them as identities, strongly held, yet come to recognize where they were more or less diversionary from European identity, quasi identities and competitions to be set aside in favor of more authentic identity.
It should not be too hard to provide facts and numbers as to the impact of these competitions and identities on European people, nor that these can significantly diminish our resource of European identity. Nevertheless, while youth in particular may be susceptible to such diversionary competition and identity, these activities also model means of identity, social participation and evaluation in determination of authenticity which do not necessarily entail violent conflict, immediately lethal, zero sum results – which we should be particularly concerned to keep to a minimum within European genus and species.

A-Symmetry as Semiotic of European Evolutionary Advance
A-Symmetry as Semiotic of European Evolutionary Advance
His colleagues noted that some species of crabs have asymmetrical appendages, one being larger than the other, but when one of the pair was lost, another grew back in mirror image to the other. To this they were disposed to ask, how did the crab gain symmetry?
Through the extended analysis, Bateson hypothesized that his colleagues had been asking the wrong question. They should rather have been asking, "how did the crab lose asymmetry?"
It was in fact, in the course of this very investigation into the biological laws of symmetry that William Bateson first coined the term "genetics."
The rule by itself is not of particular relevance to our concerns for European ontology and nationalism. However, steps taken in ecological and cybernetic analysis and arrival at Bateson's rule of morphology do have significant implications, suggesting hypotheses for semiotics of ecological (and ontological) correction - including of human ecology.

George Addressed With a Socially Ideal but Responsible Altercast Contrary to His Individualist Plans
In pursuit of this analysis, we may usefully trace background to Shotter and Harre's negotiated concerns here: "The Verum Factum Principle"
From Wikipedia:
"Giambattista Vico is best known for his verum factum principle, first formulated in 1710 as part of his De antiquissima Italorum sapientia, ex linguae latinae originibus eruenda (1710) ("On the most ancient wisdom of the Italians, unearthed from the origins of the Latin language").[7] The principle states that truth is verified through creation or invention and not, as per Descartes, through observation: "The criterion and rule of the true is to have made it. Accordingly, our clear and distinct idea of the mind cannot be a criterion of the mind itself, still less of other truths. For while the mind perceives itself, it does not make itself." This criterion for truth would later shape the history of civilization in Vico's opus, the Scienza Nuova (The New Science, 1725), because he would argue that civil life – like mathematics – is wholly constructed."

Negotiating Problems of Conventional and Non-Standard Grammar of European Identity
The most fundamental questions of who we are and how we might organize in our defense has a cogent, preliminary answer outlined by the Euro-DNA Nation
The very act of participating in the Euro-DNA Nation establishes a degree of merit to individuals as worthy members from the onset: This person is willing to undertake a minimal act in essential distinction of themselves and their group in flight or fight for the defense of European types.
There are additional qualities that need to be drawn-out by means of criteria other than genetics, of course. For example, Bowery might seek demonstrations of particular skills to confirm the type that he is looking for in his particular community. Lister would be correct to look for additional criteria beyond genetics and so on. These particular qualitative concerns are provided for in the Euro-DNA Nation as well.
We may hypothesize and verify that we do have a definition of White/European Nationalisms which can move easily in consensus, neither yielding to slobs or snobs.
Although there is some confusion over what constitutes White/European Nationalism by way of slobs and snobs, there is a de facto consensus that all people of indigenous European parentage, including Russians, are valid members. With that, there is a normal provision that the various kinds of Europeans ought to be able to maintain their distinct demographics and not have them blended away, not even with other European types. This normal provision protects against the slobs, those who cannot see the depth and importance of European differences from one another and in some of their slovenly cases, not even seeing difference from non-Europeans. It also protects against snobbish definitions of White, which would deny the overwhelming Europeanness or the value of some European kinds; in this case again, they are not seeing or acknowledging a difference that makes a difference from non-Europeans. Their concerns that some patterns among those others which are unlike theirs and not distinctly European might damage their kind if integrated, are alleviated by the human ecological accountability of the particular national and subnational bounds.
Thus, by maintaining national, regional and communal differences and values we may handle concerns of the snobs and the slobs. The snobs, those who do not really care for certain native Europeans, not recognizing them as a part of "us", may be placated by the fact that borders with these groups that they do not particularly care for are maintained. They have the means to stem limitless blending away. Therefore, they do not need to throw these people overboard along with the non-Europeans. On the other hand, the slobs, people who have a tendency to be lax in recognizing the differences between Europeans or even worse, from non-Europeans, are, by the means of these national, regional and communal accountabilities, also prevented from going too far.
This framework allows for more and less pure alike, it maintains both genus and species of Europeans and thus provides a crucial basis that in theory might serve organizational grounds for our identity, its defense and expanse, even, into new territories.

On prescriptive ontologies – Part Two, Homo heroicas
Continuing my ramblings about motoring...
I do not know the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche well, and have not read a single one of his published works from cover to cover for the best part of forty years. I do know there is a grand vision of human meaning and a narrow one of human freedom, and there is rampant purposivity as well as progressivism, and naturalism but also anti-Darwinism. There is anti-socialism, anti-militarism, anti-democratism, anti-statism in parts. There is much more than the vulgar moral framework of "god-killing" and "aristocratic radicalism". For example, there is life affirmation. If someone asked me for an interpretation of the above quote, without telling me that it is from The Will to Power, I would say that it is about emotion in human presence and its positive perspective on the lost life that went before. Read in that way, the first and last thoughts, especially, are possessed of the same sublimity and make the same tangential approach to Truth as any metaphysical fragment in Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John. It is hard to believe that someone could write in that way without knowing everything. And yet, for most thinking nationalists he might as well have never conceived of more than the "higher man" and the teleology of greatness, the life lived for glory, the life of Homo heroicas.
Here, for example, is Jonathan Bowden enunciating what amounts to the default or, a least, dominant nationalist credo:

A note to James and Graham
I have been pondering for some time how to respond to James's complaint about his contest with Graham Lister, and his subsequent withdrawal from the blog. I do not want to explore Graham's stinging criticism of theories which he sees as irredeemably liberalistic, yet worse, religious in kind, and of terminologies incorrectly applied from the biological sciences. If he is right (and I think, broadly, he is) Graham is also caustically dismissive and that is unhelpful to his own argument and not in the peer spirit which intelligent researchers of the questions which preoccupy us owe one another.
For his part, James is understandably protective of his own intellectual project, the component parts of which – the contractualism, the commentary on ecology and eusociality, the commentary on Jewish dominance and virulence, the reification of the duel, the search for foundation in mathematics, etc – look more sign than sein to me at this point. But these are early days and rather than fall to non-mortal combat over whether these constitute an incomplete collection of parts because they are the wrong parts, let us return to reflection on the problem we are all trying to solve. And I do mean all of us – all who come here, whether they are politically nationalist, conservative, traditionalist, or communitarian.
I once read long ago in a memoir by some misguided Russian fatalist that none of us ever really rests from trying to solve the great, glowering problem of mortality. We may think we are pleasantly immersed in the flow of life's petty concerns, but somewhere in our mental processes we keep returning to this problem. Even in our moments of greatest happiness and triumph, or on the rare occasions we are sucked into some big, adrenalin-charging, Sein-zum-Tode event – perhaps a pairwise duel - the diversion is fleeting and we quickly return to trying to decipher the silence and unknowableness of death's void. We sense it all around us, in the great rush of our children to grow up, in our wry regret for our own advancing age, in our tenderness for the object of our love, in the way that the fairy-gold of sex slips through the fingers of memory, in memories themselves, in long friendships, in loss, in faith, in hope, in the very processes which stubbornly maintain our bodily existence.

On prescriptive ontologies – Part One, Judaism and Christianity
I've always been a bit of a petrol-head, and I thought I would write something about motoring.
A short while ago I came across an arresting photograph of a 1940's Dodge Delivery Panel Van sitting sphinx-like in some late-spring North American field. Time and the irresistible will of Nature had turned it into an inverted flower-pot. It invited interpretation (some of which could even turn out to be relevant to Daniel's recent exploration of new religious potentials, you never know).
Discounting the usual romantic allusions to decay and the fragility of Man's design, what I saw there is a statement about mediation. At the most obvious level, the image could be taken to represent the will of Nature to establish herself and remain established in a world of constant disorganisation, pushing through all obstruction, all negation, but having to be opportunistic, having to adapt to do so. As such, it is a figure for all that we can say for sure – that is, free of religious creation myths and other speculative theories - about Source and subsistence.

Preamble to a nationalist ontology
When we speak of what oneself or any particular person or kin-group is in any real or permanent sense, we are speaking of what is of our, his or her, or their being. To speak of what is in us which is not of our being is to speak of that which is acquired from time and place. That is a distinction, ontologically speaking, between the content of the present and the absent, and between the conscious in any intentionally holistic sense and the mechanistic, and also between authentic Dasien and false Dasein - all just perspectives on the same truth (and not the only ones).
Now, taking this distinction as the essential field of ontology, preceding and underlying all philosophy and also all esoteric religious practise, we must conclude that it is, therefore, the essential field of a nationalist ontology as well. Indeed it is clearly so, since nationalist critique of the liberal ontology is very much that "what is acquired" from liberal modernity - from the kind of life we in the West live today - is a reduced and debased condition of the self. Precisely because of this, nationalists have used political power, when they have had it, to curtail freedom, democracy and egalitarianism, and thereby sweep away as much of liberalism as possible.

Christianity As Expression of Authentic European Culture
GW has expressed the constraint:
DanielS has expressed the constraint:
An approach offered by John Harland is to admit the historicity of Jesus in His essential mythic image as descendant of God evidenced in his own over-ruling of texts with direct bodily connection with God as Father, but to deny the historicity of the extant texts—deny them as yet another means by which dastards attempt to interpose themselves between the God-heritage of individuals and their Father, in spirit and flesh.
Ridicule of Harland's own editing of the texts to suit his view may be conducted only at the sacrifice of the two constraints establishing the context of this presentation. Offer a superior approach if you don't like Harland's—either that or declare folly the entire effort to connect with the spiritual force of Christianity.
Click this link for a pdf document containing part of Harland's account starting with "The Germans" (in the anthropological sense meaning what many identify as Celtic and Nordic pagans of the pre-Christian era), "The Catholic Church Promotes Judeo-Christianity", "The First Breaking Apart of the Church Serpent" (regarding Henry VIII and Martin Luther), "A Further Break From the Serpent" (regarding the establishment of America), "The Strange Phenomenon of 'Money-Mad' Americans" (regarding the closing of the frontier and replacement of Nature and Nature's God with money-based "culture"), "The American Dream" (the commodification, by conspirators, of the American spiritual renaissance), "The German Reich" (the parallel processes occurring in what became the nation state known as "Germany" during the 1800s leading up to WW I), "The World Picture After WW I" (the situation leading up to WW II) and the concluding section of this pdf document is "The Second World War".

Wholesight and the Ontology of Frederick Parker-Rhodes
I came upon the work of Frederick Parker-Rhodes in my quest for the ideal computer language, which I have elsewhere on MR discussed in relation to Heidegger's "as" structure and GW's ontology project. Recent work in theoretical physics has provided empirical validation to his "wildly eccentric" views—which managed to provide a priori derivations of the dimensionless scaling constants of physics from his ontology detailed in his book "The Theory of Indistinguishables". To be brief, there is his "combinatorial hierarchy" that derives from FRP's attempt to find the underlying mathematical structure of what he called "wholesight".

Individualism and America
Leon Haller has asked a question on Graham's latest thread which perfectly expresses the plaint of the mournful right-liberal white American. He asks: why can't we have again what we once had: political orders which secure individual rights to life, liberty and property, but recognize that the liberal order must be racially bounded?
Meanwhile, James has posed the question of America's historical meaning - or, at least, Iowa's. But I thought I would venture elsewhere to throw a light on Leon's question, and raise the possibility (going on probability) of differentials in the populations of North America and Europe, both in the sense of deep, formative cultural influence and trait selection. For it seems to me that it might not be so easy to speak of America and Americans in terms of Europe and Europeans. It is akin to a question which, as a descendent of groups who, almost in their entirety, left their own soil along the north German sea coast and sailed for the east coast of Britain, I have often pondered: what does a mass migration mean for the ones who undertake and survive it, and how does such an absolute human statement colour the generations which follow? In the English and lowland Scottish case, of course, the question is unanswerable. Almost all the parent Germanic populations of the north German coast migrated as their lands became uninhabitable, and once in Britain interbred with the native British. But in the case of white America we can get closer to some sort of conclusion.
The first peopling of the New World drew the full measure of the personal and collective resources of the English Dissenters who gave themselves to it. As an act of religious nonconformism it was staggering in its commitment. As an act of the human spirit it was one of luminous beauty and courage. By my reading - a psychological reading - the heart of white American exceptionalism in the European context, usually considered to be the political goods of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, still lies there, inviolate in its purity.

Husserl, Heidegger & Modern Existentialism
Bryan Magee in conversation (over five parts) with the Heideggerian scholar Hubert Dreyfus.
Amongst the topics covered are the deeply Cartesian nature of the Husserlian project, Sartre's incoherent attempts to produce a Cartesian reading of Heidegger, the anti-Cartesian nature of Heidegger's thought (and his rejection of Husserl), explanations of Heideggerian terminology, and the more comprehensive incorporation of the body, as such, into the Heideggerian perspective by Merleau-Ponty.
Phenomenology is seemingly a far more complex school of thought than mere Cartesianism on steroids (contra what certain people amongst the MR crowd may think). Husserl is but one version of the concept of phenomenology.

Heidegger and historical purpose
James has introduced the concept of foundation from nowhere, based on something Husserl brought into his own work once and only fleetingly. I am not sure how central it really is to the Husserlian approach to Mind, consiousness, self, and the object . In any case, there was a certain immanent development (basically, authenticity of Dasein) in Heidegger which was not in Husserl's (late and defensive) championing of reason and the transcendent ego, and which heads in the opposite direction to foundation. It is the exploration of this which would benefit James, as it has benefitted many others, and which explains, for example, why Heidegger is revolutionary today as well as why he was foundational to postmodernism during its revolutionary period of inception. To me at least, the Husserlian approach seems oddly dead and anthropological by contrast. I will try to explain this further.
Kant said that you cannot demonstrate being. But you can experience it, under certain psychological conditions. Otherwise you can only infer it, only gesture roughly in its presumed direction. Strictly speaking, Heidegger's project in Being and Time was to explain why, in the West, our inferred sense of being is so different to the sense we think it should have, and which philosophers and spiritual leaders have told us for millenia that it can have. Heidegger used the phenomenological method to give an account of this "everydayness" ... the life that is ordinarily lived. But his essentially spiritual quest constituted a complete break with Husserl and a challenge to the study of Mind as pure function. As such, it was intimately wrapped up with the meaning for us all of a lived life in which Being was rarely consciously experienced, and in which the inference was everywhere employed without thought for qualitative distinctions. Where no such distinctions apply, the road is open to nihilism and destruction. Thus seven years later, in his lecture Introduction to Metaphysics, Heidegger made the following remarkable and much quoted statement:

Introduction to Phenomenology
The foremost living phenomenologist, Robert Sokolowski, starts the introduction to his book "Introduction to Phenomenology" published in 2000 thus:
Although there are references to philosophers scattered throughout his book, Sokolowski rarely, if ever, resorts to arcane argot such as Husserl's "Fundierung" preferring, instead, plain English words like "founding" and "founded" with appropriate context to refine meaning.
This sort of "populist" approach to philosophy is, of course, a grave insult to those who have poured over the texts of the ages and we should expect them to respond with commensurate scorn. Meanwhile, there is work to be done…

The Folie of Existence: Hilbert, Husserl, Heidegger, Syntax and Semantics
For the esoterically adventurous in the ontology project only, read on for a disquisition on the question of ontology without reference to existence involving Hilbert, Husserl and Heidegger leading to a syntactic and semantic approach for rigorous philosophical method.

Constituencies of mere disaffection
Notwithstanding the vast amount of straitening post-election commentary that has appeared across the right-wing media, I thought it might be in order to offer one or two thoughts of my own. Apologies now to anyone who doesn't mind if they never read another word about this sorry issue!
As every politically-minded person has surely realised, the impressive block-voting of non-whites has put demographics at the centre of political calculation. The GOP in its current form is already electorally obsolete. Two-thirds of a static white electorate will never again be sufficient to command an electoral majority. The one-third of white Americans, particularly single women, voting Democrat were already gestured towards by the GOP's rejection of Bachman, Cain, Santorum, Gingrich, and the libertarian Constitutionalist Ron Paul. Romney was supposed a flip-flopper, a RINO, and therefore electable to all those Republican voters lost in 2008. Now he is the point from which the party has to migrate to find a majority. It has to reach out to blacks and Hispanics, and it cannot even rely any more on conservative minorities like Alan West.
For mainstream political observers the interesting question is how the GOP will adapt to this new reality and retain its present constituencies. Nationalists, however, already know that the constant pursuit of conservative movements is not principle but relevance. Ultimately, it's about power, and nothing is likely to change this time. The party managers will take the Christian Right for granted. After all, where can it go without entirely marginalising itself? The new party line will say little that is critical of illegal migrants, abortion, or homosexual politics. It will trumpet a more anti-statist and economically liberal platform. This, in turn, will redefine the political centre, and narrow the national debate even further, and that will generate a new bout of radicalism on the left.
Now let's look for a few aspects in this of particular interest to nationalists.

Nationalism as emergent nature, nationalism as reaction
This essay consists of some unfinished philosophical ramblings and some related historical interpretations. If the philosophy is too rambling, I hope at least that the history holds some interest.
Reaction has a bad name but a rather long and complex history. For the sake of brevity, as well as relevance to us, we can place an age limit on it and date it from the onset of modernity. So, for example, a reactionary's history might commence with the aesthetic of romanticism, that emotionally freeing and humanising response to the encroachment upon nature and the transcendent of industrialisation and urbanisation, materialism, the beginnings of mass consumption, and everything that was "modern", say, when Beethoven composed his Symphony No. 3 in E flat major Op.55, the Eroica, between August 1804 and April 1805.
No rabble but a nation in the making
However, nationalism did not begin in reaction, and for most of its existence it has not been reactionary. Its intellectual history is usually traced to the thought of Johan Gottfried Herder, who invented the word and, in acknowledging the place of the national community, was the first thinker to challenge the distinction of sovereign and subject, replacing both within a Volk who were in no wise the eponymous common rabble. Apparently, up to this time people who could think actually thought there was only their gilded selves and the civilisationally incompetent Platonic masses. Which makes one wonder what William Shakespeare was describing nearly two centuries earlier when he wrote in King Richard II, Act 2 scene 1 of "This happy breed of men, this little world". But, then again, there were the tribunes and the commoners of The Tragedy of Coriolanus, written c. 1605:
Sicinius Velutus: Assemble presently the people hither;
... sentiments appropriate to any modern media moghul pondering democracy and his own self. But what were the sentiments and the real will of the people themselves?
In settled times, of course, European peoples (who we might, after the modern globalist practise, term "the post-tribe") do not require a constant expression of national community. It retires to its abode in the instincts of the people and in the personnification of the sovereign. The collective will to be ... to be secure in the possession of all that is necessary for life ... makes its settlement with the world and turns to smaller things, attenuating to a will to increase and, finally, to live collectively in a way that satisfies the intellect, the senses and the heart, and leaves no collective need unmet and no wrongdoing undone. And part of that latter, it would seem, is a Heideggerian care of altruism for suffering humanity, regardless of tribe, regardless even of race.
I think this progressive retirement of ethnocentrism is particularly condign to Europeans. With us, the imperative to be does not begin (or end) in tribal competition. It begins in the struggle against climatic circumstances under which human existence is parlous at best. The audacious European response is the act of challenging Nature herself. That is what nationalists mean when they speak of the restless creativity and prometheanism of the European race.
That does not, by the way, imply some bracing movement towards a state of, say, "greatness" or "triumph", but a return to our one state of truth, which is great enough and which is in us always and requires that the people be healthy and whole, and their identity authentic (that is, detached from artifice, from the acquired).
In other words, of herself Nature is subsistent, not purposive. She does not destin beyond her struggle to be. Notwithstanding European creativity, then, our struggle is the endless struggle of all life, and such purposivity as may enter it is always party to that. To be precise, teleology roams the space between existence and subsistence, and never goes beyond, though to the eyes of all believers it will certainly appear to.

Noctua announces the NH-D14 CPU cooler
Six heatpipe, dual radiator design outperforms predecessor
The Noctua NH-U12P CPU cooler has been around for quite some time and garnered a lot of press attention and awards from review sites as a low-noise heatsink with good cooling abilities. Over the years the cooler has gotten updates in the form of additional mounting brackets to keep up with motherboard socket changes and has also gone from a single fan to a dual fan configuration.
So what do you do to further improve on an already successful design? Noctua went back to the drawing board and came up with the NH-D14 premium CPU cooler that uses a six heatpipe dual radiator design to improve both cooling performance and noise levels. Interestingly Noctua has eschewed the direct touch heatpipe design so common these days for a more traditional approach.
What isn't so traditional though is the dual radiator asymmetrical design that gives more clearance over the RAM slots while more surface area and greater heat distribution. The fins are cooled by supplied NF-P14 (140mm) and NF-P12 (120mm) fans rated at 19.6 and 19.8 dB(A) respectively.
"Our NH-U12P coolers are widely regarded as one of the best solutions on the market, so it makes us especially proud that we can offer a further substantial improvement in quiet cooling performance with the new NH-D14", explains Mag. Roland Mossig, Noctua CEO. "The NH-D14 in Ultra-Low-Noise mode actually outperforms the NH-U12P at full fan speed, so we're confident that this cooler will appeal to overclockers and silent enthusiasts alike."
The NH-D14 comes with the SecuFirm2 mounting system for use on LGA1366, LGA1156, LGA775, AM2, AM2+ and AM3 boards and should be available mid-November at a MSRP of EUR 74.90 / USD 84.90.
ASUS releases P7P55 WS SuperComputer motherboard
Supports 3-way or 2-way multi-GPUs in either SLI or CrossFireX
Along with its P7P55D Series boards, ASUS has also released a version of it WS SuperComputer board based on the P55 chipset; features the new LGA1156 socket for next-generation Intel Core i5 processors and dual-channel DDR3 memory at speeds up to 2133MHz (overclocked).
The motherboard supports both 3-way and 2-way graphics card configurations based on SLI or CrossFireX technology to enable multiple-GPU rendering. Users can install up to three SLI-capable GeForce graphics cards at x16, x8, and x8 connection speeds, or two graphics cards at true x16 connection speeds; those wanting to go with ATI graphic cards can use CrossFireX for a multi-GPU setup.
The SuperComputer in the product's name is just a marketing term though, as the ASUS P7P55 WS SuperComputer provides the foundation for users to build a cost-effective personal supercomputer by leveraging the power of NVIDIA's CUDA parallel computing architecture; there's room for three NVIDIA Tesla cards and one NVIDIA Quadro card that combine to generate four teraflops of computing power which ASUS claims is 250 times that of a standard PC.
Like it's mainstream P55 counterparts, the P7P55 WS SuperComputer comes with ASUS TurboV EVO, an easy to use hardware utility that allows users to boost CPU speeds by up to 22.2% and memory access rates by up to 14.8% by simply pressing a button. Also featured is ASUS Hybrid Power with 16+3 phase power design and T.Probe technology for active cooling and Hybrid OS for rapid online access. There are plenty of connections including dual Gigabit LAN, 6 SATA 3.0 Gb/s ports, 14 USB 2.0 and 2 x 1394a ports.
These boards are currently available online in the $225-$250US range.

ASUS Launches P7P55D Series motherboards
Supports LGA 1156 socket for Intel Core i7/Core i5 processors
Asus launched its P7P55D Series motherboards yesterday in conjunction with the official release of the Intel Core i5/i7 processors. Based on the Intel P55 Express chipset, the six new motherboards in the P7P55D Series support the latest LGA 1156 socket processors with some innovative new features.
The P7P55D Premium is the flagship model in the series and is the first to offer native support for SATA 6Gbps data transfer bandwidth through the use of an expansion bridge; the new interface nearly doubles the throughput on the latest SATA devices, enabling 50% faster reading and writing of disk data. Other models in the series can achieve the same results through the use of the PCIE GEN2 SATA6G expansion card available as an option.
Dual-channel DDR3 memory is supported at speeds of up to 2000MHz (2133MHZ overclocked on some models). All but the lowest model come equipped with Hybrid Phase Technology Which combines ASUS Xtreme Phase with ASUS T.Probe — the world's first active cooling technology that detects and balances power phase loadings and temperatures in real time. Both novice and advanced overclockers can easily boost system performance with TurboV EVO's intuitive interface and three easy-to-use tools; auto tuning automatically overclocks and self-tests the system to an extreme yet stable state and the P7P55D Premium and Deluxe models come with ASUS TurboV Remote that allows users to adjust performance settings from a convenient controller.
Depending on model, there are 6-9 SATA ports, 12-14 USB 2.0 ports and 1-2 eSata connections. Prices ranges from $279 for the Premium motherboard to as little as $139 for the P7P55D LE on the low end although you can currently find these online for less.
Gigabyte launches P55 series motherboards
Six new models support Intel LGA1156 socket Core i5/i7 processors
Gigabyte has launched its series of P55 chipset motherboards in conjunction with the official release of Intel's Core i7 and Core i5 Lynnfield processors (check out our review here.) The P55 chipset boards use the new LGA1156 socket required for the new Intel processors, support dual-channel DDR3 memory up to 2200MHz and are all built using Gigabyte's Ultra Durable 3 technology.
The Ultra Durable 3 motherboards use 2 ounces of copper for both the power and ground layers which allows for greater heat dissipation while also offering improved energy efficiency and enhanced stability for overclocking; they also feature Japanese solid capacitors boasting 50,000 hours of operation, ferrite core chokes with higher energy efficiency compared to the commonly used iron core chokes and Lower RDS(on) MOSFETs that features a lower resistance, resulting in reduced power consumption and heat generation.
The new P55 motherboards offer a host of other features including the introduction of the world's first 24 phase power VRM design on the GA-P55-UD6 model that has been designed and engineered to deliver fast transient response times through quick and seamless power delivery during extensive CPU loading variations; this results in a cooler and more stable platform as heat from the VRM is effectively reduced by spreading the load between all 24 power phases.
The P55 series boards also come with GIGABYTE Smart 6, six software utilities that provide an easier and smarter way for managing your system; the utilities include functions for faster boot times, easy overclocking, dual BIOS, rollback features and more.
The are six models in the P55 series at launch and you can find out more by checking out the web site here.
Lian Li launches PC-7FN and PC-60FN cases
Aluminum mid-tower chassis with full system tool-less design
Lian Li has added to its stable of traditional clean cut style aluminum cases with the addition of the PC-7FN and PC-60FN. These siblings are fraternal twins in that they differ only in the front panel design; the PC-7FN has smooth rounded vent holes, while the PC-60FN has a more open bezel front face. Other than the minor cosmetic differences, both cases are designed to provide superior airflow using a low front intake and a high rear exhaust. Incoming cool air is drawn in by the front 140mm fan which is protected by a washable nylon air filter; exhaust duties are handled by the rear 120mm fan mounted at the top rear of the case to extract hot air from the CPU region.
Removable front, side and top panels provide for easy access to the interior of the case where you'll find traditional Lian Li attention to detail with rolled elements to eliminate sharp edges and a totally tool-less design. You'll also find four 3.5" drive bays with aniti-vibration rubber grommets, and eight PCI expansion slots to allow for for three-way SLI/CrossFireX configurations.
The removable motherboard tray supports ATX and mATX form factors and provides cutouts for access to the rear of the CPU bracket for easy CPU cooler change outs as well as cable routing for good wire management; the case also has provisions for water cooling with holes for water tubes which are secured by rubber stoppers. With the rear exhaust mounted high up, Lian Li has moved the PSU to the bottom rear of the case where it is mounted using a tool-less securing clasp with special insulation to prevent vibration; the PSU draws its cool air from a vent on the bottom of the case which is also protected by an air filter.
The PC-7FN and PF-60FN are expected to be available at local distributors at the beginning of October at a MSRP of $129US.

GeIL launches 14 new DDR2/DDR3 memory models
DDR2 kits in 8GB and 16GB sizes, DDR3 kits offered for P55 motherbards
GeIL has announced the release of eight new high capacity DDR2 modules as part of its Black Dragon and B.D. EVO ONE series of high performance memory products along with six new DDR3 memory models designed for Intel Core i5 and Core i7 processors running on the upcoming P55 chipset motherboards.
The new DDR2 kits come in 8GB (2 x 4GB) and 16GB (4 x 4GB) capacities running at PC2-5400 667MHz and PC2-6400 800MHz speeds; all come with CL 6-6-6-18 timings and are rated at 1.8V. GeIL has developed its own DBT (Die-hard Burn-in Technology) where each module is stressed, or burned-in, at elevated temperatures for as long as 24 hours to eliminate early-failure modules and ultimately provides the highest quality products to users.
The Black Dragon series features a eight-layer PCB with red LEDs incorporated in the dragon logo on the face of the modules. The B.D. EVO ONE series uses an enhanced heat spreader that GeIL calls MTCD technology which incorporates a heatpipe into the spreaders which transfers heat to an array of copper fins located in the center of the heat pipe.
The new DDR3 models are specifically designed for Intel "Lynnfield" Core i5/i7 processors and are being offered under the Ultra and Gaming EVO ONE series. The Ultra series gets updated with a pair of 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 modules clocked at 2000MHz and 2133MHz and come equipped with aluminum heat spreaders. The Gaming EVO ONE models are rated at the same 2000MHz and 2133MHz speeds but come in 4GB (2 x 2GB) and 8GB (4 x 2GB) kits; as with its DDR2 EVO ONE brethren the modules use the MTCD heat sink technology. Each DDR3 kit comes in CL 9-9-9-28 latencies and all are rated at 1.65V as per the DDR3 specs.
GeIL did not release any further information regarding pricing or when the kits would become available.

NZXT has just announced its Lexa S gaming chassis, a mid-tower case designed for enhanced airflow with five fan capability including 120mm fans on the front, side, and exhaust with a 140 mm fan on top (four fans are included with the case); the fans are rated at 43CFM, 23dB(A) and can be managed via the included fan controller that allows the intake and exhaust fans to be controlled independently.
From an aesthetics standpoint, the Lexa S features a black-on-black look with a smoked side window and all black interior with a stealthed 5.25" front bay. Inside, the case has a turned hard drive cage along with a mounting bracket for a pair of solid state drives; NZXT has kept an eye out for cable management with punched holes in the motherboard tray which also serve to allow quick CPU bracket removal. For those wanting to go with a water cooling setup, the Lexa S pre-drilled holes on the backplate and mounting holes for a dual radiator at the top of the case.
All of this is being offered at a suggested price of $69.99 with scheduled availability sometime in September.
Evercool launches "FIT" notebook cooler
Designed to extract heat from inside laptop
Laptops can become heat traps especially with today's more powerful processors and discrete graphics adapters. There are a number of cooling devices on the market designed to help lower notebook temperatures but most use some sort of active or passive pad that goes under the notebook and are designed to cool the external case; while these units have varying degrees of success in lowering temperatures, none address the problem of heat buildup inside the case itself and can be bulky and a chore to carry around.
Evercool takes a different approach with its FIT notebook cooler that is designed to extract heat from inside the case via the exhaust port found on the side of most laptop cases.
There's no installation involved as you simply place the small device next to the exhaust and plug in the included USB power cable. The FIT has a set of feet that slide under the notebook with a unique multi-angle adjustment design that makes it compatible with most 9"-18" laptops. The unit is very compact, measuring only 55 X 85.3 X 25mm and weighing around 60.5 grams; it comes with its own soft carrying pouch to hold the unit and the separate USB power cable. The fan runs at around 3500RPM yet is rated at less than 25dBA, so noise shouldn't be an issue with this unit.
Evercool has posted the unit on its Web site but hasn't yet released any information on pricing or availability.
AMD releases six-core Opteron EE processor
Low power 40 watt ACP processor for dense computing environments
AMD has announced the immediate availability of its new 40 watt ACP six-core Opteron EE processor designed for high density data centers, such as those found in cloud computing data centers. AMD has long touted performance per watt as one of the benefits of its Opteron family of CPUs and with this latest offering, it is claiming a 31% higher performance-per-watt rating over standard quad-core Opterons.
With server densities increasing in data centers devoted to Web services and cloud computing, heat and power usage are primary concerns; utilizing the new 40 watt ACP in place of the original six-core 75 watt Opterons would enable a 40% greater density in a single rack while still remaining within the same power budget.
AMD has said the new processors will be available from system builders but didn't disclose pricing or availability on individual chips.

Cherry-picked GPUs run through the gauntlet
Gigabyte has announced its new Super Overclock series of graphics cards that will consist of solely of GPUs that have been cherry-picked for top performance, efficiency and reliability.
In order to assure only the best GPUs are used in the new series of cards, Gigabyte has developed a proprietary GPU Gauntlet sorting process that consists of a testing toolkit that allows it to inspect and select the GPUs with the highest frequency; the program runs for 30 minutes and provides important data on the maximum overclocking ability compared to a stock GPU. Once the Super OC point has been determined, the company's engineers will boost the frequency to offer the highest factory default clock setting in the market.
Each GPU is also tested under extreme graphics load and as well as for power switching and stability with only the GPUs with the best power efficiency and lowest power consumption qualifing for the Super Overclock Series.

OCZ Technology unveils the Agility EX SSD
Affordable single-level cell NAND-based drive
Adoption of solid state drives, at least at the end-user level, has been stymied to a degree by the cost of the drives when compared to traditional hard drives. To overcome this, at least partially, manufacturers have turned to multi-level cell NAND flash memory chips which are cheaper to produce and allow them to keep prices in check. Single-level cell technology holds a couple of benefits over MLC but is more expensive; two of those benefits are performance and longevity due to greater write/erase cycle endurance. However, due to costs issues, most SLC-based SSDs have been found in the enterprise market where performance is paramount and costs are not as much of an issue.
OCZ today announced a new series of SSDs called Agility EX that make use of SLC NAND based memory at a more affordable price point. Equipped with an Indilinx controller, the Agility EX offers greater performance compared to MLC flash drives, especially when you take the greater life span and total cost of ownership into account. The drives feature 64MB of onboard cache and up to 255MB/s read and 195MB/s write speeds. The OCZ drives also come with upgradable firmware and unique performance optimization to keep the drives at peak performance.
Initially offered in a 64GB model, OCZ didn't disclose when the drives would become available but did make known a suggested retail price of $399US.
Patriot teams with Capcom for Street Fighter IV

All told there are eight new part numbers involved, so if you're in the market for some new DDR3 memory, or maybe a solid state drive or two, here's a chance to score a copy of a pretty cool PC game for free.
Patriot didn't reveal pricing or availability on the new bundles.

Originally written on Rockies Review | Last updated 9/25/12
Tyler Chatwood is just 22-years-old.One thing is certain. The Colorado Rockies have plenty of options in the outfield in 2013.Make no mistake, the Rockies have been horrible in 2012. However, the interesting thing about the Rockies pathetic season has been how many positives have come out of it. The young players have shown how good they can be and how bright the future could be if everything goes right in the front office.As bad as the starting pitching has been, there is reason for optimism. Tyler Chatwood, the Rockies starter on Monday night, went 5-2/3 innings. He gave up two runs on one bad pitch, a change up the stayed in Jason Kubel's wheelhouse who left no doubt where the ball would be deposited. It quickly made a dent in the seats in the second level of right field.Beyond that home run, however, Chatwood looked very good. He gave up just three hits, striking out three and walking two. He was lifted with two runners on base in the 6th inning after delivering 85 pitches.Chatw...

Ready; No idle devices are available
My setup UCS(Backup exec)--Nexus 5k--Tape iScalar 500.
When I use backup media as Tape library, am seeing the issue as "Ready; No idle devices are available ". For the same scenario if I use backup media as disk, the backup operation is successfull.
I can able to see the iScalar500 in my Backup exec installed server. And I configured the robotic library, still am seeing the issue.
Comments 3 Comments • Jump to latest comment
Make sure you're using the Symantec drivers for your tape drive, and that in Device Manager in Windows, the robotics shows up as" Unknown Medium Changer). If not, change that, you might have to restart your server, and restart the BE services.
You can install the drivers for the tape drive using tapeinst.exe.
Alternative ways to access Backup Exec Technical Support:
Thanks Craig for your response.
Earlier I installed drivers with tapeinst.exe.
And in device mgr it shows like "Unknown Medium Changer". I have attached screenshot for the same.Am new to this Tape library config, it would be helpful for me if you share any basic steps in executing normal file level backup using tape library in step by step.
I see you have 2 drives...BE ships with support for 1 drive in a library, and every extra drive needs a Library Expansion Option license...in your case you need 1 LEO. Do you have this?
About creating backup jobs, the Admin Guide is pretty good in informing you how to do so, but check the links below:

Green Apple Pie
|2 Tablespoon
|Sour cream
|1 Tablespoon
|White flour
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|Granny smith apples
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
1. Mix ingredients 1-4 with hands (and love!) into a fist-size lump of good ol' sour cream dough.
2. Wrap it in a plastic bag and put it in the fridge.
3. Slice the apples into cubes. REMOVE THE CORE AND SKIN.
Then perform EITHER steps 4-5 OR steps 6-7
Steps 4-5 will yield very finely shredded pieces, kind of like a slush. I prefer this one!
Steps 6-7 will yield a completely mashed mixture, with a density of mashed potatoes.
4. Chop up the pieces into pulp in a motorized grinder.
5. Thoroughly mix sugar with all the apple pulp. Amount of sugar depends on your sweetness preferences. The amount of mixture is the amount of filling you put in the pie.
6. Add sugar to the apple cubes and microwave the whole lot. You don't need to microwave them all at once as the amount may be quite large, so be reasonable :)
7. Beat the microwaved apples with a cocktail fruit beater to turn it into a homogeneous mash. Beat them in 500 mL portions at a time. The amount of mixture is the amount of filling you put in the pie.
8. Take the dough out of the fridge and split it into two pieces of ratio 1:3. Roll both of them into flat round sheets.
9. Rub some Canola oil into the baking dish and place the bigger dough sheet into it. Its edges should rise above the edges of the dish. Bend them outwards
10. Dump the filling into the baking dish, right onto the middle of the dough sheet.
11. Place the smaller dough sheet into the middle, right over the filling.
12. Seal the pie by squeezing together the edges of the bigger and smaller dough sheets all around the baking dish.
13. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
14. Switch the oven to 350 degreed Fahrenheit and bake the pie for 35-45 minutes.
In the end
Thin yellow crust on the outside, hot steaming apples on the inside. Do not make the crust brown!

SEATTLE, April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center today announced the winners of its "Get Screened" video contest - a creative challenge to moviemakers nationwide to help shine a spotlight on the importance of colorectal-cancer screening.
The five winning videos - featuring a stirring survivorship story, a probing puppet and a sinister character named "Colon Polyp," among other compelling characters - were selected from a pool of more than 60 submissions from contestants spanning 18 states and the District of Columbia. The submissions were either 30 or 60 seconds long and represented a wide variety of styles and genres.
"We were thrilled to receive so many creative entries from moviemakers across the country," said Linda Gainer, vice president of the Center's External Affairs and Communications Department, which launched the contest last fall in hopes of securing a strong video to support its broader ongoing colon-cancer screening awareness campaign - "Your colon. Your life. Your call." - to increase colon-cancer screening rates and reduce deaths from the disease in Washington state. The grand-prize winner, "Your Choice," was submitted by Zach Smith of Vancouver, Wash., who will receive $2,500 and an opportunity to have his winning video featured in a Hutchinson Center public-service announcement to air on Seattle NBC-TV affiliate KING-TV. The split-screen video depicts two scenarios; in one, a man gets a reminder letter to get a colonoscopy, undergoes the test and is informed that during the procedure the doctor had removed a potentially deadly polyp from his colon. In the other scenario, the same man throws the letter in the trash and, instead of scheduling a colonoscopy, takes a nap on the couch, oblivious to the time bomb ticking inside his body.
"There's a fine line between scaring people and sending a strong message - to look at colonoscopy as an opportunity and not a threat," s
