NEW YORK – Rosie O'Donnell, in her first extensive public discussion about being gay, says in a television interview to air Thursday that she didn't come out sooner partly because she didn't consider it a big deal.
O'Donnell said she didn't want the adjective "gay" permanently attached to her name.
"It was never a big deal for me," she said. "It remains not a big deal for me. It is not the way that I describe myself. But nor is it a way that I distance myself from."
ABC made excerpts of O'Donnell's interview with Diane Sawyer available Wednesday. It will be shown on Primetime Thursday at 9 p.m. EST.
O'Donnell, who has won four straight Daytime Emmy awards for best talk-show host and was nominated again on Wednesday, is quitting her syndicated show in May. She told Sawyer that played a part in her decision to talk about her sexuality now.
She also wanted to speak out to oppose a Florida law restricting the adoption of children by gay parents. O'Donnell, who has three adopted children, said she's willing to be the nation's image of a gay parent.
"I don't think America knows what a gay parent looks like," she said. "I am the gay parent. America has watched me parent my children on TV for six years. They know what kind of parent I am."
O'Donnell's coming-out is a big moment for gay and lesbian Americans, said Joan Garry, executive director of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.
"Now no one will be able to say that they don't know someone who is gay," Garry said, "because everyone knows Rosie."
Some gay activists were unhappy that O'Donnell hasn't spoken out publicly before, but Garry said GLAAD doesn't fault her because it's a difficult personal decision.
The announcement isn't likely to affect her show, according to an expert in television syndication. Ratings have slid for The Rosie O'Donnell Show, as they have for most talk shows, because there's more competition in daytime TV, said Bill Carroll of the Katz Television Group.
"The audience has accepted her and I think they will be accepting of any choice she makes," he said.
O'Donnell has a similar faith in her television audience.
"I think if they felt as though it was a lie, if they felt like I was pretending to be who I am on the show, they would turn away," she said. "But I haven't lied to them yet. This is another element that I haven't shown them. But it was never a lie."
O'Donnell said she realized she was gay when she was 18. Two years later, she first fell in love with a woman, but she said she also has had male lovers. O'Donnell is in a four-year relationship with a woman, former TV executive Kelli Carpenter, with whom she has adopted a child.
O'Donnell's childhood — with a mother who died when she was young and an emotionally distant father — caused her more difficulties than being gay, she said. She said she had never felt discriminated against because of her sexuality.
"I have lived my life very openly and very truthfully," she said. "When I was with a man, everyone knew who my partner was. And when I was with a woman, everyone knew who my partner was. There was never any secret or any hiding."
Her much-publicized "crush" on actor Tom Cruise wasn't an attempt to deceive. "I never once said I want him naked in a bed doing the nasty," she said. "I want him to mow my lawn and get me a lemonade."
She said she hoped her children would not be homosexual because "life is easier if you're straight."
People don't need to approve of her lifestyle to support making laws easier for gays and lesbians to adopt, she said.
"I'm not asking that people accept homosexuality," she said. "I'm not asking that they believe like I do, that it's inborn. I'm not asking that. All I'm saying is, don't let these children suffer without a family because of your bias."
Sawyer noted that President Bush has said he believes children ought to be adopted in families with a woman and a man who are married.
"President Bush is wrong about that," O'Donnell said. "He's really wrong. And, you know, if he'd like, he and his wife are invited to come spend a weekend at my house with my children. And I'm sure his mind will change."

Normally I post about what my semester goals are and why I want to achieve them, but this time I can't really think of any. I'm not really sure what I want out of this semester because I achieved pretty much all of my academic goals I set for myself last year.

Ecards That Remind Me of Myself
Spring Semester Goals Recap
It's that time again to evaluate how well I did with the spring semester goals I set down for myself. Here they are…
Spring Semester Goals
- Bring Up My GPA – I would like to get a higher GPA for this semester. Looks like I have a lot of hard work ahead of me. FAILED! I had a 3.55 GPA for fall 2011 but a 3.50 GPA for spring. I didn't make my goal, but I cant really complain with making Deans list again.
- Publish At Least Five Articles – I hope to have at least five articles published in the school newspaper by the end of the semester. FAILED! I only had two articles published during spring semester.
- Make a Friend – I have acquaintances here, but no one I hang out with regularly or are on a personal level with. Now that I have met people I hope I can increase relationships and begin a good friendship. COMPLETED! I met a lot of really great people this past semester and started going out and doing things with people. This led me to having a great roommates next year that I can get along with.
- Make Exercise Apart of Daily Life – I never considered exercising a daily task ever in my entire life. But to lose the weight I have gained and become a healthier person overall, I would like to see myself go to the gym at least three times a week and not see it as a chore, but as something I can enjoy. FAILED! This was defiantly the hardest goal to complete seeing how I view going to the gym as a chore. I only went to the gym maybe five times last semester. I really suck at trying to like working out. Better luck next time!
- Be More Involved – College offers a lot of great events and opportunities for students. Taking advantage of that while I can will be time well spent. COMPLETED! I used the Honors Program at Point Park to my advantage and organized a fundraiser for Lending Hearts, an organization that provides children with cancer recreational and peer building activities. Next semester I am going to be an honors mentor which means I move into school early and mentor a group of freshmen honors students.
- Make Blogging a Habit – Last semester this blog kind of went downhill and I didn't keep up with it. I plan on blogging at least twice a week to keep readers informed and interested. FAILED! I didn't blog nearly as much as I did in spring semester as I did in fall, but my views went up a lot and I got more followers so it wasn't a complete loss.
- Revamp My Personal Style – Something I have been working on and thinking on for awhile now. I want to get rid of the high school look and create a new mature and fashionable look for myself. I will post more on this later. WORK IN PROGRESS! I was able to go through most of my winter clothes and get rid of old ones and buy new ones, but now I'm doing the same thing for my summer clothes. I still need to stock up on more jewelery and accessories. I did buy a lot of new shows though!
I did a pretty terrible job at my goals this semester. It was a rough semester for me with everything that was going on in my life and going back to working full-time and trying to manage being in school full-time on top of that. But for having limited time and still making it on Deans list, I didn't do too bad. Hopefully next semester will be even more of an improvement!
What's Hot: Leopard Print
Living With Your Parents After College?
After reading the Cosmopolitan magazine article on research that shows that many college students move back in with their parents after graduation I wasn't entirely shocked by the large number. What I did find shocking was how many people who could afford to live on their own, still chose to stay in their parents house. To me this seems absolutely insane. I can't imagine moving in with my mom or dads house when I graduate. Its not because I don't get along with my parents or they treat me like I am still in middle school, but because after college is when real life starts and you need to start taking care of yourself.
Most bachelor degree graduates are 22 or 23 by the time graduation rolls around. These graduates are well into young adulthood and are totally capable of living on their own and being their own person. Sure the economy sucks but if proper planning was done prior to college graduation, money could have been saved up to help purchase your own place and pay bills. Smart budgeting, even if you have a part-time job during college and/or high school, could have paid for the first few months rent. Obviously, holding a job after graduation is required to have your own place but even then with planning and thinking ahead that could be accomplished.
As for the people who have moved in with their parents after college and have the money and capabilities to live on their own but still choose not to … this seems like a lack of responsibility and maturity. Why would anyone not want to advance their life and have something of their own and move further along into adulthood?! I can't even begin to contemplate an answer to that. If I was living off my parents when I was 23 plus years old, I would feel so ashamed of myself for the lack of respect towards the two people who have already given me more than I could ask for since I was born. These are the future leaders of the world we're talking about here, but they live at home with mommy and daddy?!
Of course there are some expectations to some people if their is medical reasons or the like, but that is such a high percentage.
As for myself, I will do whatever I have to, to be able to live on my own and support myself. I work long hours at work to save money for my future and in the future if I need to get a second job to pay my rent then so be it. I cannot wait to be able to have a place to call my own and be proud of myself for accomplishing that!
I Got Spring Fever
Only eight days left until spring break and I am defiantly ready for it to be here! The only things standing in my way of going home is two exams, one test, one quiz, two presentations, one video package, six classes, 24 hours of work and a three hour car drive home. It's mid term week here at Point Park and a lot is going on this week but with lots of coffee and keeping calm I can get through it. I hope spring break gives me a chance to relax and refuel myself to finish out the semester. I have become really burnt out with school, my job in Pitt and my living arrangements here. I'm not really enjoying any of my classes this semester. I don't find them engaging or really interesting to me. This makes it really hard to get up in the morning and want to be in class. Work is more drama filled than ever and well, I live in a dorm, nuff said. I want summer to be here so I can go to the beach and just do whatever I want and finally have some privacy! But for now I must settle for the eight days of spring break I have.
Things I want to do over break …
- Play Sims 3 … a lot
- Make my style board (pictures of fashions I like to help put my style together)
- Catch up on some zzzz's
- See my family
- Hang out with my friends
- Take a trip to see my bestie
- Cook and bake
- Have a campfire/cook out at my camp
- Work out
- Take pictures of beautiful, pretty things
- Eat good food
Am I the Only College Student That Cleans?!?
Ever since I was little and capable of doing things for myself my parents taught me how to clean. My brother and I would have a list of chores that we had to around the house. When school was in the chore list wasn't big. Wash the dishes, clean your room, sweep, and help our parents with whatever they asked. During summer the list got bigger. We had to water the plants, feed and take care of the dogs and cats, sweep upstairs and downstairs, dust the house, do yard work and wash dishes. Once we got older we were given more chores. I started doing the laundry and cooking while my brother mowed the grass and even helped me cooks sometimes. There was always a punishment if we didn't do our chores. For example, we had to do them before we went anywhere with friends and if we didn't do them we couldn't go anywhere that weekend. Of course there was always a scolding involved too. Also, if you didn't do the chore correctly and did it "half assed" as my mom would say, you would redo the chore completely.
At the time I hated that we had to do chores because none of my other friends were made to do things like my brother and I were. I hated cleaning and never wanted to do it, but now I am so thankful for my parents making me clean because I have realized how important it is. I have also realized how many of my peers now don't take any responsibility or time to clean. Not even in the slightest bit. I learned that the hard way when I went to college.
I have roomed with nine different girls since I started college and none of them have ever taken responsibility when it comes to cleaning or sanitation. The first room I lived in was the worst experience for me. One of the girls never cleaned in the whole year I lived with her. That includes dirty dishes. She would leave her food mold in the fridge, borrow my dishes without permission and ruin them because she couldn't cook, never cleaned the dishes she used and kept her room a mess. Another girl wasn't too bad. She wasn't around much so never really made a mess, but never took part in cleaning our kitchen or living area that we all shared. The other girl would help me clean, which was good, but she was a messy, cluttered and unorganized person. If she cleaned by her self she would do a half assed job of it.
I would come back to Pittsburgh from being home for a weekend, walk into my dorm and see how much of a complete mess it was and start crying. I don't mean just a little dirty I mean it was unsanitary. Its hard to describe how bad it was, but it was terrible.
The second room started off okay. The girls would clean the kitchen and living area every so often. Maybe three or four times in the whole time I lived with them, but considering we had bed bugs for six months the entire living situation was always a complete mess. There was a lot of times where Travis (boyfriend) would come out to see me for a weekend and clean the place for me because he knew how stressed it made me.
Now I am in a third room and new school and I still have the same problem. I clean every weekend and by Friday this place is a disgusting, shit hole. My roommate hasn't cleaned ever. She barely does her dishes. The other two girls in the next room wash there dishes, but they have never taken time to clean the kitchenette or shared living space that they use more than I do.
When I clean I go all out. I use bleach and other disinfectant sprays. I scrub the shower and the toilet, clean the inside of the toilet, clean the bathroom sink, faucet, and count top, wipe the mirrors, vacuum, swifter, mop, scrub the kitchen counter, clean out the microwave, clean the garbage can, the whole nine yards. It usually takes me three-four hours to clean the whole place.
I think the most frustrating part about it is that I work (15-20 hours) and am taking six class on top of that. I'm also a junior who is close to graduating and they are only sophomores. All three of them have jobs but they don't work nearly as much as I do. So I have less time to worry about cleaning up after someone's mess. But this place is so gross that I keep cleaning because of how much living somewhere that is unsanitary stresses me out. I don't deserve to clean up someone's mess because they are too irresponsible to do it themselves.
I don't understand how someone can be okay with living that way. Do they just not care? Did their parents never bring them up to clean up after themselves? Are they just spoiled brats who are used to having everything in life done for them? I'm not sure, but from my experience its not going to get any better.

Perinatal asphyxia represents an important cause of severe neurological deficits including delayed mental and motor development, epilepsy, major cognitive deficits and blindness. However, at the moment, most of the therapeutic strategies were not well targeted toward the processes that induced the brain injury during perinatal asphyxia. Traditionally, experimental research focused on neurons, whereas astrocytes have been more related with the damage mechanisms of perinatal asphyxia. In this work, we propose to review possible protective as well as deleterious roles of astrocytes in the asphyctic brain with the aim to stimulate further research in this area of perinatal asphyxia still not well studied.

This is a critical and comparative reading of the manuscripts of The Ego and the Id. We can read in this work a dissymmetry between the repressed unconscious and the material that remains unknown. We depart from chapter IV, "The two kinds of Drives". As Freud announces, the matters he displays resume thoughts from his writings of 1920. So, starting with the redefinition of Ucs and afterwards, with the reformulation of the idea of Todestrieb, they remain much closer to psychoanalysis than Beyond the pleasure principle. But what he calls, "our speculation" returns in the conclusions of chapter IV about the assumption of the Todestrieb. With the breaking through of the not bound: what are the purposes the Todestrieb serves, when, as he says in 1923, it has its hands free? In 1924 he confirms that not-all the drive is inscribed in the representation. The silence of the drive intervenes: this border, where id speaks, id enjoys and knows nothing.

Peptides | Year: 2013
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is one the most common complications of diabetes mellitus and frequently results in clinically significant morbidities such as pain, foot ulcers and amputations. The diabetic condition progresses from early functional changes to late, poorly reversible structural changes. The chronic hyperglycemia measured alongside diabetes development is associated with significant damage and failure of various organs. In the present study diabetes was induced in male Wistar rats by a single dose of streptozotocin (STZ) and the association between the BKB1-R and the oxidative stress and Na+-K+ ATPase activity in nervous tissues was analysed. The results showed that the resulting hyperglycemia induced a reduction of the neuronal electrical function integrity and increased oxidative stress in the sciatic nerve homogenates of 30 days diabetic rats. Malondialdehyde (MDA) used as a marker of oxidative stress was elevated whereas Biological Antioxidant Potential (BAP), glutathion (GSH) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were decreased. Treatment of the rats 3 days before the end of the 4 week period with the BKB1 antagonist R-954 restored the neuronal activity and significantly attenuated the oxidative stress as shown by the level of the various markers returning close to levels found in control rats. Our results suggest that the BKB1-R subtype is overexpressed in sciatic nerve during the STZ-induced diabetes development as evidenced by inhibitory effects of the BKB1-R antagonist R-954. The beneficial role of BKB 1-R antagonist R-954 for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy is also suggested. © 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Neuropeptides | Year: 2010
Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (type 1 diabetes) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease associated with many complications including nephropathy, retinopathy, neuropathy and hyperalgesia. Experimental evidence has shown that the bradykinin B1 receptor (BKB1-R) is involved in the development of type 1 diabetes and found to be upregulated alongside the disease. In the present study the effects of the selective BKB1-R antagonist the R-954 (Ac-Orn-[Oic2, α-MePhe5, D-β Nal7, Ile8 ]des-Arg9-BK and the BKB1-R agonist des Arg9-BK (DBK) were studied on diabetic hyperglycemia. Diabetic type 1 was induced in C57 BL/KsJ mdb male mice by five consecutives doses of STZ (45 mg/kg i.p.). A glucose tolerance test (GTT) was performed by an intraperitoneal administration of glucose, 8, 12 and 18 days after the diabetes induction. The induction of type 1 diabetes provoked a significant hyperglycemia levels in diabetic mice at 12 and 18 days after STZ. The administration of R-954 (400 μg/kg i.p.) at 12 and 18 days after STZ returned the glycemia levels of this animals to normal values. In addition the administration of DKB (300 μg/kg i.p.) significantly potentiated the diabetes-induced hyperglycemia; this effect that was totally reversed by R-954. These results provide further evidence for the implication of BKB1-R in the type 1 diabetes mellitus (insulitis). © 2009.

This article is intended to try give light to one of the questions that often reveals to the student of Psychology and Psychiatry on the application of Jungian psychotherapy. How is its praxis? Is it done face to face or does it use a couch? Which are the methods employed? On the basis of Jung's own claims that it defends no doctrine and only describes facts and leaves to everyone the freedom to deal with them, we will find from a fundamentally empirical analytic space. It does not work from a scheme systematized on the basis of a prior theoretical orthodoxy. On the contrary, each patient will be presented as a new challenge to the understanding of the therapist.

Jung conceptualized the collective unconscious as the locus of the myths, the absolutely genuine and primary patterns of thinking and feeling of humanity. The legend of Oedipus or myth of incest is a irrefutable proof of its eternal validity. The present essay is an attempt to take an alternative look to a history that belong to all of us. Situations that are developed in this drama, like the characters involved in it may charge significance as an archetypal and essentially symbolic interpretation.

Introduction and background: In the last few years, a substantial body of evidence indicates that cutaneous psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis patients are at higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease. However, underlying mechanism remains not completely understood. In this review we discuss the role of the immune system in the development of atherosclerosis, focusing on available data implicating the role of an enhanced immune-mediated proinflammatory status in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis diseases. Methods: A systematic search was performed on Pubmed until November 2014, with preference to the sources published within the past 8. years, including epidemiological studies (prospective and retrospective); cross-sectional case-control studies and reviews. Articles were selected according critical associations using the following keywords: arthritis, immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, and psoriasis. These were combined with closely related keywords reflecting cardiovascular diseases: atherogenesis, endothelial dysfunction, intima media thickness, subclinical atherosclerosis, plaque, thrombosis, thrombus, fibrinolysis, coagulation, and reactive oxygen species. Both types of disease selected terms were separately combined with non-traditional (innate and adaptive pro and anti-inflammatory immune molecules and cells) and traditional (metabolic related conditions and molecules) cardiovascular risk factors. Results and conclusions: Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis diseases illustrate that immune-mediated activated crossroads of inflammation beyond enhanced cardiovascular risk factors are the result of an interplay between different proatherogenic mediators derived from metabolic, vascular and autoimmune joint and skin inflamed target tissue. Consistent with this point of view, psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis diseases offer an invaluable opportunity to reinforce our knowledge about atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. © 2015.

The chronic hyperglycemia measured alongside diabetes development is associated with significant long-term damage and failure of various organs. In the present study it was shown that hyperglycemia induced early and long term increases in nitric oxide (NO) levels, kallikrein activity and vascular capillary permeability measured as plasma extravasation, and decreases of Na/K ATPase activity in diabetic rat retina 4 and 12 weeks after streptozotocin (STZ) injection. Treatment of the animals for 5 consecutive days with a novel selective bradykinin B 1 receptor (BKB 1-R) antagonist R-954 (2 mg/kg s.c) at the end of the 4 and 12 week periods highly reduced NO, kallikrein and capillary permeability and increased Na/K ATPase activity in the retina. These results suggest that the BKB 1-R receptor subtype is over-expressed during the streptozotocin-induced development of diabetes in rat retina as evidenced by the inhibitory effects of the BKB 1-R antagonist R-954 on NO, kallikrein and vascular permeability increases as well as Na/K ATPase decreases. The beneficial role of the BKB 1-R antagonist R-954 for the treatment of the diabetic retinopathy is also suggested. © 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

To measure the buccal plate reconstruction of extraction sockets with labial plate dehiscence defects using a bone allograft in combination with an absorbable collagen membrane and a custom-healing abutment at the time of tooth removal.Ten patients underwent immediate implant placement and reconstruction of the buccal plate. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was performed preextraction, immediately after bone grafting and implant placement (day 0), and between 6 and 9 months following implant surgery. Measurements were taken at three levels: coronal (L1), middle (L2), and apical (L3) level.Implants placed into sockets with labial plate dehiscence defects demonstrated radiographic reformation of the labial plate dehiscence defect at 6 to 9 months posttreatment. The net gain in labial plate on cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) in L1 and L2 was 3.0mm, where 0mm existed at pretreatment. The minimum amount of labial plate thickness of 2.0mm was achieved in all treated sites, evaluated radiographically at 6 to 9 months postoperatively, in a single procedure, without flap elevation and maintaining the gingival architecture and satisfactory esthetics.Placing an absorbable membrane, bone graft, and custom-healing abutment at the time of flapless anterior tooth extraction and immediate implant placement into a socket with a labial osseous dehiscence is a viable clinical technique to reconstitute the absence of the labial bone plate.

ATHENS (Reuters) - Greece's finance minister called on German Chancellor Angela Merkel to give his country a "Speech of Hope", to signal Europe was ready to end its demands for austerity, similar to that given to Germany at the end of World War Two.
In an entry on his blog on Sunday, Yanis Varoufakis compared Greece's situation with that of post-war Germany, when former U.S. Secretary of State James F. Byrnes traveled to Stuttgart to deliver an historic speech.
That speech in 1946 marked a departure from the punitive approach favored by the nations that defeated Germany and gave its people the prospect of growth and recovery, Varoufakis said.
"Seven decades later, it is my country, Greece, that needs such a chance," he said.
Greece is running out of cash and unless it quickly receives more aid from its European Union and International Monetary Fund lenders it risks default and a possible exit from the euro zone. Athens has so far rejected the creditors' demands for more austerity in exchange for financial help.
"Greater austerity is being demanded from an economy that is on its knees, owing to the heftiest dose of austerity any country has ever had to endure in peacetime," said Varoufakis.
"No offer of debt relief. No plan for boosting investment. And certainly, as of yet, no 'Speech of Hope' for this fallen people," he continued.
Varoufakis, who will be in Berlin on Monday to give a speech of his own, has seldom been out of the news since joining the radical left government of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras after January's election.
However his outspoken remarks have sometimes seemed counter-productive and Tsipras sidelined him last month when he re-shuffled his team to negotiate with the lenders.
During his trip to Berlin on Monday Varoufakis will meet German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble, with whom relations have often been strained. Schaeuble's spokesman said no news conference was planned after the morning meeting.
Varoufakis said in his blog that Greece was committed to making its stricken economy competitive again, but a "Speech of Hope" would make the difference by restoring morale to its citizens.
Merkel should deliver the speech in Athens or Thessaloniki "or any other Greek city of her choice," he said. It should "mark a sea change, a break with the past five years of adding new loans on top of already unsustainable debt, conditional on further doses of punitive austerity."

The traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) uses a combination of different natural products based on practical experiences. To better understand the therapeutic functions of TCM, large efforts have been made to identify the principle constituents of TCM and to unravel the molecular mechanisms behind the efficacy observed. This review aims to summarize research results obtained from the most intensively studied TCM phytochemical compounds namely the alkaloids Berberine, Evodiamine; anthraquinones Emodin, Aloe-emodin, Rhein; the terpenoids Artemisinin, Celastrol, Triptolide; the flavones Apigenin, Chrysin, Wogonin, Baicalein; and the cyclopenta[b]benzofuran derivatives Rocaglamide. Most of them have been originally identified as anti-inflammatory and anti-viral reagents and are now known to also possess anti-tumor activities by targeting the apoptosis pathways in cancer.

The period of horror is reason? Sigh.
"Goddess of Reckon, The. The important recite in an feeling to move Christianity into the French Mayhem. The pinnacle Celebration of Reckon was thought on 20th Brumaire [November 11], 1793,whenever you like the goddess, Mlle Candeille of the Opera, was enthroned in Notre Dame House of worship, which became the Memorial of Reckon.
She was clothed in white with a red Phrygian cap (breathing space cap) and the reach your peak of Jupiter-Peuple in her hand. Mme Momoro, wife of a zealot of the Tradition, was gone installed at St Sulpice. Goddesses of Deliverance and Reckon were soon set up because of France, one allegedly concerning a remove the guts from feelings the words stage me not all the rage License!'
Saturnalia of an unrestrained benevolent accompanied these installations." [Brewer's Dictionary of Period ">For 3 1/2 lifetime, beginning November 24, 1793 to April 1797, religion was available and a modify put in place. They even assorted the calendar.
Opening with that speck (November 24, 1793 or 3rd Frimaire in Time II), the churches of Paris were blocked and the usual reading of the Bible illegal. Pronto, by all parts of the local renounced religion, blocked rural community churches and reopened them as temples of natter.
In these temples, a prostitute, D'esir'ee Cand'eille, was installed as the Goddess of Reckon overdue she paraded bare frank the streets of Paris. The goddess, overdue being embraced by the cranium, was mounted on a wonderful car, and conducted, amid an bulky crowd, to the cathedral Notre Dame, to read the place of God.
Display she was towering on a high altar, and acknowledged the reverence of all controversial.
The services of jumble are never chaotic - they power their agents in the protect and in the amend, these were the Illuminati Masons. The three ultimate obstacles to jumble are the vision of G-d, frank socially constraining scripture, the inherited unit and confidence to a nation.
As soon as these can be broken down and it takes generations to extensive this - exhibition facial expression at our dash four decades of history - after you power your speed in place in the law, in tonic, in enlargement and in all arms of the directive, you're robust to move, frank pretense and misdirection.
As soon as you've got the jumble moving low thoughtfully, as a result you can be bestowed in naughty undersized hints - a Noyade near, a assassination donate, the period of horror facilitating all. General public are biologically muted and whenever you like they sign tangent all freedoms in their rage on top of an jointly jot unusual object and happily go low with the general tangent of that which they no longer value, e.g. the Christian take notice of, record as a result can the wolves reveal themselves and run amok as well as the sheep.
The scale is oh so simple - partake of your glory in G-d and summary the precepts in the back of your wits, no detail how remote on top of the jot it goes with you, as donate lies the knowledge of correctly and false on a sustainable basis, prominently for your children, try to standstill with your link and inherited and be loyal to your nation. As want as first-rate speed can drape on to these, the services of jumble are not leaving to be triumphant.
This is what natter dictates. This is what reason really is. The overturn - your Kants, Hegels, Voltaires and Nietzsches, nation who say the perfectability of Man, the fools - that is the direct to cloudiness and jumble and that's wherever we're now headed, inch by inch.

(This Header Photo above was taken at a Soviet Labour Camp in the notorious 'Gulag' around the same time that the Soviet Poster used in the article below was published – early-mid 20th century)
I have written elsewhere about how our liberal democracies crow about holding as their sacred cows the values and virtues of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all; of the greatest good for the greatest number; of the sovereign will of the people etc etc: all of which in our hallowed mediocre meritocracies boil down to the dictum: 'money talks'.
Those who are monied have access to the educations best fitted for high office in a society or in an organisation within a society. They hold it more or less exclusively to themselves and their descendants. They have, because they occupy the high places in society and in organisations in society, access to far more consumer choice than do the 'other ranks' of society. They have access to more travel, more leisure, more amenities and resorts and resources able to make their lives less cluttered with the chores of ordinary lives led by ordinary people. In fact this monied educated much more free class of persons, employs ordinary persons to carry out these chores for them; so that plain and common persons not only do their own chores in their own households but also do those common chores in the lives and households of the rich folks.
Rich folks eat better than the rest of us, and dine out more often; they take more expensive and exclusive nightlife entertainments than do the lesser classes of society. And just as there are persons who are in fact wage slaves who have been hired by the rich for the rich to have their chores done for them; so too anyone who is an employee of any kind in our meritocracies, is most generally also expected to sacrifice most freedoms and most civil liberties; the very jewels in the crown of our liberal democracies and which are held hallowed: these are all suspended just as soon as the employee walks in the front gate of his or her place of work.
These freedoms and civil rights, such as they are for the 'other ranks' , are in fact so markedly available in greater measure to the wealthy and powerful; that they can be said to perform a step change into privileges which the richer people enjoy. As for the generality of employees, who spend commonly at least one third of their weekdays in an employer's premises, they have restored to them their muted and curtailed versions civil rights and of liberal freedoms, just at that very time they leave their place of work and head home for the evening.
This is how it is. This is not propaganda. This is not jaundiced. It is how it is.
Of course those amongst the 'other ranks' who rise higher up the greasy pole of ambition and advancement in their places of work as employees; these are those aspiring ones whose aim and hope is to become like their masters and their mistresses; and eventually to become one of this hallowed monied class themselves; and so to consider themselves to have 'arrived'. And one of the ways of establishing oneself in one's having arrived at such a zenith, and of advertising the fact of having established oneself, may be to dine out amongst one's new classmates at the places where the rich and privileged are to be seen dining; at exclusive metropolitan clubs and fashionable cafes.
This class of aspirant employees is allowed by their task masters and mistresses enjoyment of rather more of those curtailed rights and freedoms than are made available to the persons whom these aspirants manage and direct; those who are ranked as commonplace employees in the hierarchy below them. This 'taster' allowed these aspirants of 'what it's like at the top' is in fact a two-edged sword. It is at once their incentive, that bait and that thirty pieces of silver, paid over to them by their employers; so as to allow them just so much of new latitude as for it to become a draw and a stimulus; but the aspirants are allowed no more than just enough; enough to separate the aspirationals from their origins and their old allegiances, and to instil the appropriate attitudes which prick them on to getting the commonplace employees working hard under their management regimes.
This is how it is. Class division; class action so as to divide and rule. Cream for the crème de la crème and a thin sour milk meted out to the mass of managed 'other ranks' employees. The people of privilege recruit and by seductions draw in from people amongst the classes of 'other ranks', and so as to help them keep their grip on their hegemonies; and in this devil's bargain they manage their managers, ever offering these aspirant class the succulent carrots of even great heights to be scaled.
The point here I want to draw before I move on to a discussion concerning Fascist art and Totalitarian art; is that that same oppressed and highly regimented way of life which when I was younger, America, and most of Europe, as well as some smaller fry camp followers of these developed liberal democracies, all in the absolutest of terms openly and publicly reviled and condemned such a way of life as being the ubiquitous mode of life for people living under the Soviet Flag in that era. The same oppression and restrictions on freedom and on civic rights, as these kinds of curb are widely and generally experienced by one who is a common employee in any liberal democracy; is what was condemned roundly by our privileged classes in the regimes of totalitarianism like was the USSR's.
No mistake. No lack of focus and perspective. This is how it is.
So what we have in our 'free-world' as it is so charmingly championed as fairy tale, in fact is a situation wherein those who are have nots, who are whom I have termed 'other ranks', most usually work for their employers under pretty similar conditions to those in which ordinary persons lived in under Communism in USSR and in other places. Our brand – note the word brand – of totalitarianism is merely one stage removed from government being the direct source of oppression and restrictions.
Our governments merely – to use a business-type buzzword 'facilitate' the employers, the rich and the privileged in their ubiquitous regime of an iron grip over their employees whilst these same employees are in their employers' premises and are working 'for them'.
So common people sleep 8 hours; they work 8 hours; they have 8 hours left to themselves. Some good portion of that left to themselves 8 hours has to be taken up with keeping body and soul together duties and with other necessities – washing, washing up, cleaning the house – a long list. Maybe if a common employee is lucky s/he will enjoy 4 or 5 hours each weekday of time to themselves. What economists might call 'disposable time'; and which the sickly buzzword calls it is 'quality time' or even 'living time'. I have seen ordinary people call time spent on a bus going to the shops an example of 'dead time'. There is a critique and resume to be written here about time and its perceived value in our societies.
This pretty tight correlation between employment in a liberal democracy and common life under Soviet governments; helps to explain I believe that very striking parallel seen to adhere between Totalitarian art – and its art theories – and billboard advertising – and its back office marketing department setups – as seen in consumerist liberal democracies; and most particularly is seen in the billboard ads of the big corporations; the big corporations being those places in our economies wherein which to work as common employees, and whilst at work, – though sometimes at home too! – folk generally face most restrictions and curtailments of their hallowed liberal freedoms and of their 'inalienable' civic rights.
Now let us take a look at how totalitarian art and theory – in the first place looking at Soviet art – which has been especially named rather loosely by the title Soviet Realism. The theory behind the art of Soviet Realism pretty well matches up with the rationale for Corporate Identities, as these rationales are believed to apply by their Corporate creators of them. Also there is the striking similarity of Corporations' Public Images as presented by themselves to their publics, we consumers, and this close match is able evermore being seen to be clearly manifested; in the press; on TV and in movies; in advertising in general itself and in the way our lives are managed and manipulated by these Corporations and their business aims and manias. This Is the thinking and the driving force behind what is appearing ever more obviously in the brash and direct Corporate advertising now pouring out of many Corporations' marketing divisions.
Here then below is an image of a Soviet poster of mid 20th century; a pretty readily-identifiable one by its style and content to be of 'dictatorship of the proletariat' provenance.
The worker in it is lionised; he is a hero. Note it's not a photograph; but a graphic artwork. This is important because it acts to 'everyman' the worker-hero guy holding out a hand. What I mean is that as a graphic artwork the hero-worker guy is not a particular and actual person such as any photograph of the kind would require. Thus he is able to be generalised so as to be 'anyone' and 'everyone' who works hard or with their hands in the Soviet Union. Thus everyone's a winner baby – all heroes all workers hard at it.
(Note here a Lotto UK National Lottery hoarding poster slogan of just a few years ago which used a similar wheeze to persuade common people to buy a ticket and win a small fortune. Here is a billboard poster using the slogan for instance:
The slogan was 'It could be you." Here in this poster image this slogan has (also) been a little embellished into "It could be your week." A drawing, a graphic artwork yet again; and no person who is real or actual being shown at all; only a 'supernatural and benevolent godly' finger in the sky pointing in at the window of what is a pretty ordinary terraced house of a British kind to be found all over the nation. A tiny person of indeterminate sex and age is silhouetted by the bedroom light in the window and in a rejoicing and exclamatory posture. This silhouetted person might also be 'everyman' or 'everywoman' and also 'anybody' and 'anyone'. 'It could be you.'. The fact of the person, this 'everyman' being a dweller in a two-up two-down terraced house is significant; since such house are the houses dwelt in only by 'other ranks' in Britain. No-one with money would want to live in one. One has to be seen to have money and this house says 'undistinguished and commonplace' all over it.
