He's not the only one you got to worry about slandering you
SUBMITTED: Monday, June 17, 2013POSTED: Monday, June 17, 2013
Because someone signed a contract to pay you money for something you failed to deliver does NOT mean you are providing an ethical conduct of business.
I really would wish you would try to bring forth suit against this person. Because not only will I stand by them, but the other hundreds of people your sorry pathetic company has ripped off will too.
In fact, I filled a new ripoffreport against Exact Data Consumerbase today, BBB reports are pending, and I have my SEO team focusing on getting all these ripoff reports to rank in the search engines for keyword Exact Data Consumerbase and any keywords related to your company. Trust me, your entire company will be out of business and shut down soon.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

USD/JPY: forecast for November 16-22
USD/JPY corrected down from 123.60 to the 122.50 area. Demand for Japanese yen as a safe haven increased after Chinese data this week renewed concerns about the global economy. On such background the approaching US rate hike will make investors even more worried. Still, the US has a bond yield advantage over Japan, and this will provide the greenback with fundamental support.
Next week pay attention to the release of Japan's GDP on Monday. The odds are that the Japanese economy will keep contracting in Q3 after declining in Q2. The data release will be followed by the Bank of Japan's meeting on Thursday. Although the market generally does not expect the Bank of Japan to add monetary stimulus at this time, weak economic figures leave this option on the table. This is another factor to limit the decline of USD and Japanese Yen.
The current decline in USD/JPY looks like a correction. Support is at 122.00, 121.50 and 121.00. Resistance is at 123.00, 123.60 and 124.30. Pay attention to the US data as well: if the readings aren't very bright, then the pair will be in no hurry to move up.

Postgame Notes - Georgia at Vanderbilt
Oct. 15, 2011
Recap | Final Stats | Quotes
Winning Streak Continues: Georgia won its fifth in a row tonight, beating Vanderbilt 33-28 to improve to 5-2 overall, 4-1 in the SEC. The Bulldogs lead the all-time series 52-18-2 and have won 16 of the last 17 meetings. Before this year, the last time Georgia won five in a row during a season was 2007 as it finished that year on a seven-game winning streak and then won its first four contests of the 2008 season.
Brown, Bennett Steps Up: With leading receiver Malcolm Mitchell not making the trip with a hamstring injury, junior Marlon Brown and redshirt freshman Michael Bennett stepped up with career-high nights, combining for eight catches for 210 yards. Brown finished with four catches for 121 yards and two touchdowns, marking his first 100-yard game. In fact, sophomore QB Aaron Murray set career-highs in attempts, completions and yards tonight, going 22-for-38 for 326 yards. Murray had 3 TD passes and one interception.
Murray connected with junior Brown for a 27-yard touchdown with under a minute to play in the first half. Murray then hit Brown for a career-long 75-yard touchdown at the beginning of the fourth quarter. This was the longest receiving touchdown for the Bulldogs since Matthew Stafford hit Mohamed Massaquoi for an 84-yard score versus Florida in 2007. Murray has 40 career scoring passes, which is fourth in school history.
Walsh Hits Four FGs: Senior PK Blair Walsh booted a 53-yard field goal at the 13:48 mark in the second quarter. Walsh is 2-for-4 from 50+ and 10-for-16 from 50+ in his career. He hit a career-long 56 yarder against Coastal Carolina earlier this season. He also added a 28 yarder in the second quarter and a 36 yarder and a 44 yarder in the third quarter to go along with three PATs to set a career high with 15 points. Walsh is now second in career points scored with 365. However, Walsh missed a 50 yarder and a 42 yarder and is 12-for-20 on the year. He became the fourth Bulldog in history to attempt a school record six FGs in a game.
Blocked Punt Turned Touchdown: Junior TE Orson Charles blocked a punt in the second quarter after the punter dropped the snap. This was the second blocked punt for the Bulldogs this year after freshman Corey Moore had one against Coastal Carolina. One play later tonight, QB Aaron Murray connected with SE Tavarres King for a 20-yard touchdown to give UGA a 10-0 lead. Vanderbilt's special teams also blocked a punt in the fourth quarter with seven seconds remaining, the first by an opponent since Kentucky in 2008, Brian Mimbs was the Bulldog punter.
To The House: Vanderbilt's Andre Hal had a 96-yard kickoff return for a touchdown with 9:51 left in the third quarter. This was the first kickoff return for a touchdown against the Bulldogs since Auburn's Demond Washington had a 99-yard score in 2009.
Turnovers: Senior CB Brandon Boykin snagged an interception in Georgia's end zone at the 7:28 mark in the opening period. The Bulldogs were forced to punt four plays later. This is Boykin's second INT this year and the eighth of his career (ninth for the team in 2011). The Bulldogs' pick was also their first turnover forced in the Red Zone and only technically the second Red Zone stop of the season for Georgia. #5 Boise State took a knee in the final play of the season opener.
In the second quarter, junior SS Shawn Williams had his second INT of the season and of his career. The Bulldogs were forced to try a field goal after the turnover but missed. The Bulldogs have 10 INTs this season. Georgia has forced 14 turnovers and converted them into 34 points. Opponents have scored 35 points off 10 Bulldog miscues. Vanderbilt's Casey Hayward got an INT with 2:30 left in the contest at their own 2 yard line. It led to an INT by Bulldog safety Bacarri Rambo as the Bulldogs punted with 15 seconds left. Tonight, Georgia had three picks, matching the most since 3 versus Idaho State and Louisiana Lafayette last year. Rambo led the Bulldogs with eight stops tonight with Sanders Commings and Jarvis Jones next with six apiece.
Starters: Junior ILB Christian Robinson returned to the starting lineup for the first time since the South Carolina game. Robinson injured his foot versus the Gamecocks.
Captains: Georgia's captains on Saturday were senior C Ben Jones, senior RT Cordy Glenn, junior SS Shawn Williams and redshirt freshman ILB Kosta Vavlas.
Up Next: The Bulldogs have an off-week before traveling to Jacksonville, Fla., to face Florida on Saturday, Oct. 29, and it will be televised by CBS with kickoff slated for 3:30 p.m.

A 25-year-old man, wanted for his involvement in at least five criminal cases, was arrested for allegedly gunning-down a local criminal who had assaulted him for his refusal to cough-up extortion money, police said on Wednesday.
Identified as Manish, who is a small-time criminal himself, the accused had used a country-made pistol to pump bullets into his victim, Gyan Singh, at southeast Delhi's Sangam Vihar last Friday, said Chhaya Sharma, deputy commissioner of police (south).
"During interrogation, Manish confessed to having killed Singh with the assistance of one Sunny — both of whom had been assaulted for refusing to pay extortion money to Singh," DCP Sharma said.
According to police, while Singh had assaulted Manish early last week, Sunny had been assaulted on Thursday night after he refused to pay Rs. 25,000 to him as 'protection money' and in return for Singh's 'permission' to work in the Sangam Vihar area.
The duo, police claimed, decided to join forces to avenge the insult after realizing that they had a common enemy,
"On November 9, as per their plan, Manish and Sunny, who were on the latter's motorcycle and equipped with a country-made pistol, found Singh sitting at a shop around nine pm," DCP Sharma said.
"Sunny shot three rounds at Singh while Manish, who was riding the motorcycle, sped away. To avoid detection, they parted ways with Manish escaping to Muradabad. However, he returned to Delhi when his finances ran out and was arrested as soon as his presence became known," Sharma added. Police are on the lookout for Sunny.

What, no turtleneck?! We can assume that comes later in the forthcoming Steve Jobs biopic, new details of which were released today.
The man pictured is Ashton Kutcher looking uncannily like the late Apple boss in his shirt-sleeves days. The image emerged yesterday to promote jOBS, which will close the Sundance Film Festival in Utah next month.
The image is a play on a photo of Jobs posing on a desk in his early days as the king of computing. In the original, Jobs, who died in October last year, wore a pink shirt and a paunch, but the beard and hair are identical. To his right sits a 1977 Apple II computer.
Kutcher is the only big name in a drama directed by Joshua Michael Stern. It will span three decades of the entrepreneur's life to 2000 and is described on the Sundance website as "a candid, inspiring and personal portrait of the one who saw things differently".

Each Finger Can Be Moved Separately
Each Finger Can Be Moved Separately
The fingers of the "i-limb" are
powered electrically; © University
of Heidelberg
Complex electronics and five motors contained in the fingers enable every digit of the i-LIMB to be powered individually. A passive positioning of the thumb enables various grip configurations to be activated. The myoelectric signals from the stump control the prosthetic hand; muscle signals are picked up by electrodes on the skin and transferred to the control electronics in the prosthetic hand. Batteries provide the necessary power.
The "Fluidhand" from Karlsruhe, thus far developed only as a prototype that is also being tested in the Orthopedic University Hospital in Heidelberg, is based on a somewhat different principle. Unlike its predecessors, the new hand can close around objects, even those with irregular surfaces. A large contact surface and soft, passive form elements greatly reduce the gripping power required to hold onto such an object. The hand also feels softer, more elastic, and more natural than conventional hard prosthetic devices.
The flexible drives are located directly in the movable finger joints and operate on the biological principle of the spider leg – to flex the joints, elastic chambers are pumped up by miniature hydraulics. In this way, index finger, middle finger and thumb can be moved independently. The prosthetic hand gives the stump feedback, enabling the amputee to sense the strength of the grip.
The two new models were the best of those tested, with a slight advantage for Fluidhand because of its better finishing, the programmed grip configurations, power feedback, and the more easily adjustable controls. However, this prosthetic device is not in serial production. But it is possible to produce an individual model.

Unshaken (5 of 8) by Jeff Schreve
This content is part of a series.Unshaken (5 of 8)
Series: Roller Coaster - Facing the Ups and Downs of Life
Jeff Schreve
Psalm 15:1-5
If you have your Bible, please turn to Psalm 15. We want to share today a message that I've entitled, ''Unshaken.''
Now I don't imagine there's a person in this room who is not familiar with the very, very famous children's fairytale called The Three Little Pigs. Everybody familiar with The Three Little Pigs? The Three Little Pigs has been told for over a hundred years. It first appeared in print in the late 1800s, but my research said it had been around way before that. And many of you know the story, and there are variations of the story.
But the story, basically, goes like this: This mother had three sons, three little pig sons. And they grow up, and she sends them out of the home to find their fame and their fortune. And the three brothers go out. And the first brother wants to get a place to live very quickly, and so he goes the cheap route, the easy route, and he builds a house made of straw. We have a picture of his house.
And he did a good job with it, but it's made of straw.
Well, the second brother, he goes out, and he says, ''You know, I'm not going to go that cheap, but I still want to go cheap because I'm still pretty tight with my money, and I want to put something up real fast.'' So he builds a house of sticks. And that's his house.
Well, the third brother, he said, ''You know, I'm going to build a house and it has to be a solid house. And I'm going to put in the time, and I'm going to put in the effort, and I'm going to put in the money, and I'm going to build a house that will last.'' And he, although ridiculed by his brothers, builds a house of bricks.
Well, we know that in the story there's a big, bad wolf that comes by to the first brother's house. And he says to the little pig, ''Little pig, little pig, let me come in.'' And the little pig says, ''No, no, not by the hair of my chinny-chin-chin.'' He says, ''Then I'll huf ...

Rodney Marsh believes Roberto Mancini will be ditched by Manchester City this summer – even if the Blues win the FA Cup.
The former Blues star believes that the gap between them and Manchester United at the summit of the Premier League is just too steep – even though City marched into the FA Cup semi-finals with an emphatic 5-0 victory over Barnsley.
The FA Cup may offer City's best route to silverware this season but Marsh maintains Mancini is doomed.
He said: "Mancini is a terrific manager. "I like his attitude. But he will be let go even if we win the FA Cup. I would prefer them to keep him than let him go. But he has been very poor in the Champions League. Some of his signings have not been of a standard that nowadays is identified as Manchester City quality.
"As far as the league is concerned it is over. This is partly because of the great distraction with Mario Balotelli, who let the team down when he was there at the beginning of the season. But it's also because Mancini hasn't at times seemed to pick the right balance of players.
"He hasn't been helped by injuries to key players, especially Vincent Kompany.
"Kompany is the captain and was fantastic last year. But he's missed so many games this season and this has had such a detrimental effect on the defence – in fact the whole team.
"Balotelli was a nightmare and the saga with him also had a major effect on the team's bid for the title."
A City FA Cup triumph would be their second in three years. Given they won the Premier League title last May many Mancini supporters believe he has already achieved enough to ensure his survival.
Marsh, a hero of the 70s, is not that sure. Manchester United are 12 points clear at the top of the table with ten games remaining.
City are now through to the last four of the FA Cup and the semi-final draw will be made after United have played Chelsea in their sixth round clash at Old Trafford.
Marsh added: "The Cup is very much now City's to lose. I can see Alex Ferguson leaving out important players in Cup games whereas Mancini will use his best starting 11. The problem is that they need to get consistency in the running of the club.
"If I was the owner of City I would try to start a dynasty like the Joe Mercer-Malcolm Allison one that we had back in the 1960s and 70s – five or a six—year thing. And I would give Mancini time.
"But that's not what happens these days. Which is why I think he will be gone in the summer."
* Rodney Marsh was speaking at the London Football Legends Dinner & Awards, in aid of national charity the Willow Foundation. The Willow Foundation, founded by Bob Wilson and his wife Megs, provides life-enhancing special days for seriously ill 16 to 40 year-olds. For more information visit www.willowfoundation.org.uk.

lately there has been a reservoir between usMature
Lately there has been a reservoir between us, there has been hesitation on your lips, there has been a hollowness in my ribs. I am alone and not alone at the same time, you are both here and absent; we are neither and we are both. The light pools in through the window and we watch it, sometimes I think for days on end, never moving, never blinking or speaking or feeling, just watching the dawn creep over the windowsill to spill hazy afternoon light onto the carpet until the white wine glow of dusk washes it all away before the night settles in. I could spend my life in these forever quiets, collecting shards of sunlight and dust motes like snowflakes on my eyelashes.

Design for success with EURO TOOL jewelry making tools! Since 1979, EURO TOOL has developed to become a trusted name in the jewelry arts and crafts trade. Choose from a large array of tools for metal working, beading, wire working and more!
The fun beads in this photo were made of 24-gauge copper and patterned brass sheet cut with the EURO TOOL 9-shape "disk" cutter. Each shape was hole-punched with a 3/32" hole so an eyelet could be run through a stack of 3 or more stacked shapes. Sometimes a brass heishi bead was used in the center as a spacer. After the eyelet was set, these were all tossed into a tumbler for a few hours (with some ShineBrite), and they came out bright and shiny!

Hello there
Expand Messages
- Hello everyone,
I just wanted to introduce myself here. My name is Gustaf Pretorius
and I am qualified as clinical psychologost. I consult in the private
sector and have been tasked with an ONA project for the company I
consult for which is very small (about 50 people in all).
The idea is to use this as a test project to see how we can use ONA to
add to our consulting product offers.
I am an amateur at ONA and I am studying everything I can find to
learn about ONA/SNA and its use in OD and other business applications.
I have found some of the threads very helpful so far. Thanks for
sharing the information. Don't know when I will be able to contribute
but maybe I can ask useful questions.
Kind regards,
Gustaf Pretorius

The '90s are here…again. Last weekend, the live-action remake of 1991's "Beauty And The Beast" Stockholm Syndromed its way into the record books, while the sequel to the iconic '9os favorite "Trainspotting" also rolled into cinemas. "Power Rangers," based on a franchise that first bowed in 1993, hits theaters this week, the live-action remake of 1995 anime "Ghost In The Shell" arrives next week, and with the news that 1999's "The Matrix" is being rebooted, it seems everything two decades old is new again. And that's not even getting into the "Baywatch," "The Mummy," "Flatliners" and "Jumanji" remakes, all of which are coming before the end of this year. Man, the movies are straight-up bugging for the '90s right now.

It's a phenomenon we find pretty gnarly in that it's of course a signal of the intensely risk-averse nature of Hollywood that they'd rather try to reanimate the still-warm corpses of existing ideas than back something new. But it's also, in a way, gnarly! in that it's giving us a chance to look back at a decade that we often kind of scurry over in our retrospective analysis: before now, the '90s have felt too recent to qualify as "classic," but too far back to be current.
However, this explosion in '90s revivalism is an opportunity for us to spend the next 10 days going through the decade year by year and picking our 10 favorite films from each. We're strictly limiting ourselves to 10 picks, no cop-out joint positions and no more than 15 further also-rans, because we're masochists and we had been enjoying a period of unprecedented harmony backstage in the Playlist features department. That's come to a discordant end now, so we hope you at least enjoy the fruits of these arguments (there are a lot of people talking to a lot of hands right now) with the first of our flashbacks to the 1990s in film: the 10 best films of 1990.
Upset? Outraged? Can't wait for more? You can always visit our 200s series while you wait for more: 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009.
10. "Ju Dou"
Initially banned in China, possibly because of its frank sexuality or because it can be interpreted as an anti-Maoist allegory, Zhang Yimou's second film as director (he had been a cinematographer to Chinese directing giant Chen Kaige just prior), is a sweeping, lusty, almost sinfully bold-face melodrama the likes of which it's hard to find this side of Douglas Sirk. In fact, at least some of its rapturous overseas reception may have come from classic weepie nostalgia: "Ju Dou" was shot using the actual Technicolor process that had long since been abandoned in the U.S. But credit has to go to Zhang for finding such an inventive way to maximize the format's lurid, eye-poppingly saturated palette: here he devises a sweepingly tempestuous story of love, lust, cruelty and generations-long betrayal set against the literal backdrop of billowing reams of brightly colored cloth as a young woman (Gong Li in the second of six consecutive star-making movies she'd lead for Zhang) is married off to the embittered, sadistic owner of a silk-dye mill. Li's absolute conviction and the breathtaking, swoony imagery elevate its soap operatics to the status of arthouse melodrama, and despite, or possibly partially because of, its non-grata status at home, "Ju Dou" earned a competition slot in Cannes and went on to pick up a nomination for Best Foreign Language film — the first Chinese film ever to do so.
9. "Metropolitan"
It's pretty ironic that one of the best-ever dissections of dissolute privilege among the wealthy upper echelons of New York's social elite was made for a mere $100,000 after director Whit Stillman sold his apartment and got friends to help out with financing his debut film. Set at the beginning of debutante-ball season in late-'80s Manhattan, it follows a middle-class Princetonian outsider with socialist pretensions who falls in with a group of young, Upper West Side UHB's ("urban haute bourgeoisies," as coined in the film) and is gradually seduced by their lifestyle despite himself, especially by wittily obnoxious de facto leader Nick (Chris Eigeman, oozing acerbic charm) and loftily unavailable man-eater Serena Slocum (Ellia Thompson). Across his whole career (until very recently, when his Jane Austen adaptation "Love & Friendship" received near-universal acclaim), Stillman has been accused of viewing the world through a very rarefied lens, but that overlooks the caustic critique embodied in each of his investigations into the aimless and uselessly overeducated lives that his characters are doomed to lead in this extravagant, decadent milieu. Perhaps that's simply because Stillman's way with an acid retort or a quotable aphorism ("Metropolitan" picked up a Best Original Screenplay nod) makes his films such fizzily enjoyable entertainments that it's almost possible to miss their more tragic aspects.
8. "An Angel At My Table"
The trajectory of Jane Campion's stellar career is such that her Palme d'Or win in 1993 (she's still the only woman director to have won Cannes' top honor, smdh) has somewhat overshadowed her earlier films — at most, "Sweetie" and "An Angel At My Table" are regarded as stepping stones en route to "The Piano" and beyond. But if Campion had never made another film, her second feature would be regarded as a pinnacle — originally designed as a TV miniseries, it's the story of New Zealand writer and square peg Janet Frame, played in three different time frames by three different actresses, most memorably Kerry Fox as the adult Janet. The most surprising thing about 'Angel' is how deceptively absorbing it is, and, even with only one prior feature under her belt (and indeed working in a made-for-TV format that, certainly back then, could have easily translated to a more slipshod approach to storytelling), just how calmly assured Campion feels. Without ever dipping into sentimentality (the film is, like its brilliant and troubled protagonist, completely without self-pity or self-indulgence), it's a tremendously moving and beautifully shot celebration of the potentially life-saving power of creative expression.
7. "Total Recall"
Paul Verhoeven's Mars-based sci-fi doesn't have the sleek, high-concept leanness of "RoboCop," or the all-out arch subversion of "Starship Troopers," or indeed the weirdly moreish kitsch of the lately reclaimed "Showgirls" to recommend it. As a star vehicle for Arnold Schwarzenegger, then one of the biggest stars in the world, and an effects-laden blockbuster based on a short story by Philip K. Dick, it's among Verhoeven's least idiosyncratically Verhoeven-ish movies. And yet it's still an absolute barnstormer, and Verhoeven's impish presence tells in how it's almost giddily packed with the kind of ideas and inventiveness that few Hollywood tentpoles ever bother with. Both intentionally and unintentionally funny (it's unlikely Arnie meant for "Give these people air!" to become quite such a cultishly quotable line), bristling with genius practical special effects and salacious asides (occasionally both at the same time, as with the three-boobed hooker), yet powered by incisive themes of identity and memory that are very much Dick's perennial concerns, the truly great thing about "Total Recall" is how you get the feeling that we are getting away with something that wasn't intended by the moneymen at the time. It's a smart, ambiguous and provocative movie smuggled into a dunderheaded megabucks Arnie vehicle, and it's so much fun.
6. "Wild At Heart"
At the time simply too odd, too richly elaborate, too queasily mystifying to wholly connect, as the years have passed and "Mulholland Drive," "Lost Highway" and "Inland Empire" have appeared, "Wild at Heart"'s story of star-cross'd lovers, vengeful mothers and sadistic hitmen has started to seem like a model of narrative coherence by comparison. And that's enabled it to take its place in the sun as one of David Lynch's very best films, a garishly beautiful homage to the trashy "doomed outlaw lovers on the run" genre as Sailor (Nicolas Cage) a savage, oversexed, Elvis-aping bad boy, and Lula (Laura Dern), his insatiably lusty, permanently peri-orgasmic girlfriend, try to flee the ever-extending reach of Lula's maniacal family. Leaving corpses and rumpled bedclothes in their wake, the pair encounters cowboys, rocket scientists, John Lurie and a leering assassin named Bobby Peru, played with malicious relish, and questionable oral hygiene by Willem Dafoe. The world of Lynch has never seemed so seductively sleazy, so twisted and violent, yet so romantically, crazily immersive. "This whole world is wild at heart and weird on top," moans Lula in her little-girl Southern drawl, and that's true not only of this movie, but of every film Lynch has ever made — as such, "Wild At Heart" deserves to be regarded as a keystone title in one of the most singular and exciting filmographies of all time.

Probably nothing. The class of the Lowman family has very little to do with Willy's delusions about himself or his occupation. Of course, if you are going to do a Marxist interpretation of the play, it must have some influence as class does in everything. If Willy had been in the middle-or-upper middle class, he may have a better change of making it into management and fulfilling his economic dreams, but that's a different play. If Biff had not gone to Boston, Willy might have had a better chance of fulfilling at least a part of his dreams (about his sons), but that's a different play as well.
Willies problems are about his own dreams and his inability to realize who he was, not about where he found himself on the economic ladder.

"Grandpa Wen," China's state media call him. Or "The Premier of the People". To many ordinary Chinese, China's 70-year-old premier Wen Jiabao is a series of endearing images – a grey-haired, bespectacled man playing basketball with primary school children, or bowing deeply to the families of natural disaster victims.
A report in Friday's New York Times gave Wen's populist image a makeover. The paper found Wen's family has accumulated more than $2.7 billion (£1.68bn) in assets, much of it from investments in companies that were directly influenced by Wen's position.
Analysts say Wen's role as the Chinese Communist party's friendliest face – a counterpoint to the stodgy, unsmiling bureaucrats that fill its ranks – has made the disclosure of his family's wealth a deep embarrassment to the leadership.
"Someone like Wen is a very good focal point for the party's overall narrative – that it's the only vehicle that can maintain the prosperity that the Chinese people have achieved over the last 15 or 20 years," said Rana Mitter, an expert on Chinese politics at Oxford University.
Wen has made much of his humble origins – that he grew up in poverty in Tianjin city before getting a postgraduate geology degree in Beijing. His mother, a teacher, raised him amid the turmoil of the Sino-Japanese war. "The untold suffering in the days of old China left an indelible imprint on my tender mind," he told the National People's Congress in 2003.
In his 42-year political career, Wen has gained the reputation of an intellectual. He regularly opens speeches with lines from ancient Chinese poets and scholars, expounding on the virtues of perseverance and commitment to duty. While visiting President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda in 2006, he improvised a poem: "Fifty years of journey sharing weal and woe / Brings Chinese and African hearts closer and ever so," he said, according to the website of China's embassy in South Africa.
He has long been an ambiguous figure for China-watchers. Some say he could be a crusader for reform; others call him a figurehead. He has expressed support for anti-corruption legislation in speeches around the world. He visited Sichuan after a 2008 earthquake thought to have killed 90,000 people and has met migrant workers during labour unrest.
When a high speed train crash in the coastal city Wenzhou in June 2011 became a focal point for popular discontent with the speed of China's development, Wen was quickly on the scene. "I believe related departments will seriously learn a lesson from this incident," he said at a press conference after inspecting the crash site. "If there is any corruption exposed in the investigation, we will handle it according to the law, and the consequences will be severe."
Yet if Wen has enacted any real political reform, none of it is obvious. After his visit to the earthquake zone, the government harshly cracked down on activists demanding a list of the dead. His goal of improving migrant worker rights has gone largely unrealised. Corruption in China is still endemic, the country's wealth gap yawning, its thuggish state security apparatus stronger than ever.
Analysts usually maintain one of two views on Wen, according to Mitter. "One is that he's been genuinely trying to push for reform within the party, but has been isolated and not been allowed to succeed because of vested interests," he said. "The other is that this is essentially a piece of self-aggrandizement by Wen."
Analysts debate the importance of a photograph showing Wen standing alongside former premier Zhao Ziyang while visiting Tiananmen Square student protestors in 1989. While some say that Wen's proximity to Zhao – a staunch reformer who was placed under house arrest after the protests – shows his sympathy for the students' cause, others say it betrays nothing but a strong survival instinct, an impressive ability to further his career despite a dangerous political association.
Wen has scored at least one big victory in his time as premier: he is widely considered instrumental in sacking the Chongqing party chief Bo Xilai – a charismatic leader with a flair for Mao-era grandiosity – triggering the party's most dramatic political upheaval in decades.
"The new problems that have cropped up in China's society will not be fundamentally resolved, and such historical tragedies as the Cultural Revolution may happen again," he told a political meeting in March, hours before Bo was stripped of his post.

Yet far more serious is the fact that the US president - who never did more than complain privately to Israel about its wish to destroy the Oslo agreement - no longer has the slightest leverage over the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. And a war between Israelis and Palestinians, ever more likely given the threats that they are making against each other, will cost many more lives than Mr Clinton's pin-prick missiles against Iraq.
Within hours of President Clinton's meeting with Mr Netanyahu last week, the signs were all too clear. The White House spokesman, James Rubin, was waffling about Yassir Arafat's need to be "realistic" about what he could get - as opposed to what he was entitled to - under the Oslo Middle East peace accord; and Jerusalem's mayor Ehud Olmert announced that Mr Netanyahu had just given his unequivocal commitment to further Jewish settlement building on occupied Arab land in east Jerusalem, in total violation of the Oslo accords. No wonder Mr Arafat left Washington muttering about the "peanuts" the Palestinians were being offered.
Arab leaders understood all too well what had happened: President Clinton's political impotence meant that he could not afford to anger Congress or the Senate - whose pro-Israeli lobbyists decide US policy on the Middle East - and the Israelis, courtesy of Paula Jones, Gennifer Flowers, Monica Lewinsky et al could therefore do what they want. And so they did. While the Palestinian Authority negotiator Hassan Asfour reproached Mr Clinton for failing, as peace guarantor, to condemn Israel's stated intention of keeping at least 60 per cent of the occupied West Bank, Israel's cabinet secretary Danny Naveh announced that "no one will dictate to Israel what are its vital national interests".
No indeed. While Mr Netanyahu was assuring his American Jewish lobbyists that Jewish settlements would continue to be built, his army chief of staff, Major General Amnon Shahak, was claiming that without security guarantees from Lebanon, Israel's occupation troops might stay there for "another 1,000 years". Quite apart from the implications of such an extraordinary statement - at a rate of 39 soldiers killed a year, General Shahak was dooming another 39,000 Israelis to die in Lebanon - it was an open invitation to the pro-Iranian Hizbollah to respond. And they did.
The guerrilla organisation's leader, Sayed Hassan Nasrallah, told a "Jerusalem Day" rally in Beirut that Hizbollah would fight against Israel for "thousands of years", asking why the Israelis thought their state would exist in the year 2998. Hizbollah would fight until Jerusalem was "free of Jews". Never before had Nasrallah spoken like this. But the drums of war always echo louder on the other side of front lines and we can expect more fearful rhetoric from Israelis and Arabs alike. Just two days ago, Israel radio was reporting that the US and Israelis would begin talks - not on peace but on the possibility of war with Syria.
In the meantime, the Israeli army has produced its own code name for a future campaign against Palestinians in the event of a second "intifada" uprising, about which Arafat has been warning. Mr Netanyahu is threatening a "tough response". And just as the 1996 Israeli bombardment of southern Lebanon was named "Grapes of Wrath", the future anti-Palestinian strike - according to Israeli journalists - is to be called "Operation Burning Steel". The Israeli daily Maariv even claims that the Palestinians possess Stinger anti-aircraft missiles in the West Bank - a weird assertion when Israel controls all land frontiers to the area. Israeli commanders and their soldiers are going to be "mentally prepared" for operations against the Palestinians, the paper ominously warned last week.
In Baghdad, meanwhile, where the Babel newspaper - edited by Saddam Hussein's son Oudai - has been heaping scorn on Mr Clinton's sex life, Saddam himself must be opening magnums of champagne to celebrate the US president's potential catastrophe. Saddam knows full well that if the sex scandal destroys Mr Clinton, he will have outlasted two American presidential adversaries; and that if Mr Clinton chooses to attack Iraq because of Baghdad's refusal to cooperate with the weapons inspectors, Arab states - regarding such an attack as a cynical distraction from Clinton's domestic plight - will be under strong pressure to abandon US "protection" and speak out on Iraq's behalf.
Not, of course, that Arab leaders are any more personally moral than Mr Clinton. One plucky monarch whom we in the West all know and love was recently involved with a student even younger than Monica Lewinski. A Gulf ruler regularly marries virgins from his emirate's tribes. A very well-known Arab Gulf king bought an entire seafront hotel to prevent guests viewing his latest conquests in their bikinis in a neighbouring palace. Nor are the Israelis exempt. Moshe Dayan was a notorious womaniser. Mr Netanyahu has even performed a Clinton sexual mea culpa on television. But in the Middle East, sex does not decide the future of nations.
One irony of the situation has not eluded the Arabs. Talal Salman, the wily editor of Beirut's daily As Safir newspaper sharply spotted Arafat's own weakness. "The melodrama of the whole thing is that Arafat is making concessions (on security and the PLO charter) to an American president who is himself on the verge of being ousted," he wrote. "The time for counting on the United States or others is over." The Saudi-owned Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat ran a cartoon in which a two-faced Mr Clinton stared traumatised at Monica Lewinsky on television while at the same time trying to concentrate on Mr Arafat, as the PLO leader waved the Oslo agreement in front of him. There was, typically, no explanation as to why so many Arab leaders slavishly put their trust in the US as an honest broker in the first place.
Already (and predictably), Arab leaders have decided that the Israeli lobby organised Mr Clinton's affair. The Lebanese prime minister Rafiq Hariri has publicly claimed this to be true. No one has asked - despite Mr Clinton's feeble attempt last week to persuade Israel to keep its side of the peace bargain - why the lobby would want to destroy a man whose own Middle East policies have been so cravenly pro-Israeli. Mr Clinton's sexual behaviour has meanwhile affected other parts of the Middle East. In Iran, the domestic enemies of President Mohamed Khatami - a genuinely moral man who has sought to heal the terrible rift between his country and the US - have been regaling their supporters with tales of Mr Clinton's Rabelaisian behaviour.
This is not the moment, clearly, for more Iranian talk of "the great American people" - not when it seems that the lives and deaths of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Middle East people, Arabs and Israelis alike, may depend on the shape of the presidential organ and the use to which it has been put. Which is, to say the least, obscene.

Sadly, Mr. Blek's son had no practical means of defending himself for when that violent felon came calling. It's as though despite the fact his own son apparently didn't care sufficiently about his own ability to survive a situation that he feels the need to push everyone else into that same boat. As he knows full well, protection of your very life is sufficient need, and frankly it's OUTSIDE of the realm of anyone's justification to dictate terms of the value of one's life and the defense of it.Originally Posted by From the article
Get a clue, Blek. The citizens whom you would disarm don't think their being forcibly made incapable of withstanding violent crime is in their best interests. Your son apparently didn't. You apparently don't. Condolences, but don't dare for a second believe that means you have any justifiable reason to come after everyone else who would take such steps to survive such things.
