During the call regarding Intel?s solid Q3 earnings, CEO Brian Krzanich delivered some bad news about the upcoming Broadwell chip. The 14nm unit that was first demoed in September was touted to be shipping to manufacturers by the end of this year. However, a ?defect density issue? impacted the yield, causing a delay.
Intel tried to fix the issue, Krzanich said, but the delivered improvements were not up to what company had anticipated. While the problem is fixed, according to the CEO, the shipping date had to be moved. "We have confidence the problem is fixed because we have data it is fixed (?)This happens sometimes in development phases like this. That's why we moved it a quarter," he said.
Krzanich also said that the planned Skylake chip (Haswell successor) won?t have any delays due to this minor tie-up. The company posted their 3Q 2013 earnings that beat the analyst expectations, with $3.0 billion in earnings on $13.5 billion in revenue. Intel?s CEO confirmed that while it was an expected result, environment remains tough, and remains cautious about the 4Q. Still, revenue is expected to go up to $13.7 billion (plus or minus $500 million) with a gross margin percentage of 61 percent.
Q3 Key Financial Information and Business Unit Trends
- PC Client Group revenue of $8.4 billion, up 3.5 percent sequentially and down 3.5 percent year-over-year.
- Data Center Group revenue of $2.9 billion, up 6.2 percent sequentially and up 12.2 percent year-over-year.
- Other Intel® architecture operating segments revenue of $1.1 billion, up 13.3 percent sequentially and down 9.3 percent year-over-year.
- Gross margin of 62.4 percent, 1.4 percentage points above the midpoint of the company's prior expectation of 61 percent.
- R&D plus MG&A spending of $4.7 billion, slightly below the company's prior expectation of approximately $4.8 billion.
- Tax rate of 25 percent versus the company's prior expectation of 26 percent.
Editor's Take: Anshel
Looking at Intel's financial results for the fourth quarter, you can see that Intel's consumer division continued to have issues as they struggle with the shrinkage of the traditional PC industry. As Intel continues to expand their Atom offerings and create new form factors for traditional laptop and desktop CPUs, the company will likely see more growth in their consumer businesses. It is clear that Intel is seeing significant growth in their 'other' Intel Architecture group since it saw an increase of 13%. However, their PC client group makes up the majority of the company's revenue, while the majority of the company's gross margin and profit is generated within their Data Center Group. The growth of 12% year over year and 6% quarter over quarter is what allowed Intel to post a $3 billion profit even with shrinkage in their largest revenue business.
Overall, the Intel financial story continues to be the same, however, we are clearly seeing a shift in the company's revenue mix with more and more growth coming from their Atom business. It remains to be seen if the company can generate enough growth in this business to offset the shrinkage of their biggest and most notable business segment.
We are still waiting for Intel to clarify how they count their new Atom products into their quarterly earnings, so it may be possible that some of the PCG shrinkage is actually being stemmed by sales of Atom chips. However, I do not believe that Intel's Atom business is significant enough to actually affect PCG more than a fraction of a percentage point.
Also, on the topic of Intel's Broadwell delay, it is clear that Intel is getting their manufacturing process delayed by 1Q which means that they will ship to OEMs later. However, Intel claims that this will not affect the product launch timing that had originally been discussed in 2H of 2014. However, I am not convinced that an entire quarter delay will not affect the OEMs' ability to deliver their products on time. I do believe that many will still deliver on time, but with less time for development and we'll likely see lots of products launching much closer to the holiday season than anyone would have liked.

It's turning out to be a big week for streaming video content on the iPhone.
First, we learned of Akamai's new video streaming platform, and now comes word that Elgato is behind a new EyeTV app that allows users to watch their favorite TV shows live on the iPhone or iPod Touch over a wi-fi network.
Basically serving as a mobile extension of the desktop software, EyeTv lets you: Watch live TV and change channels anywhere (Wi-Fi connection required); Watch your EyeTV recordings; Browse the comprehensive Program Guide; Start recordings back home on your Mac immediately or schedule them for later; and view and edit your recording schedules.
From Macworld:
The key phrase in that setup is "EyeTV users." To take advantage of the mobile app, you'll also need EyeTV 3.2, Elgato's desktop TV software, installed on a Mac that has a compatible TV tuner connected to it. But if you have those parts in place, the EyeTV mobile app brings a lot to the table. It connects to any Mac running EyeTV 3.2, automatically finding the machine on a local network courtesy of Bonjour. A free My EyeTV locator utility lets the iPhone app find and access a remote Mac.
For $4.99 in the App store, this little piece of mobile TV heaven is now available. But EyeTv doesn't have a lock on the market by any stretch of the imagination.
There's more than one way to watch TV on your iPhone, of course. Equinux's $4 Live TV can stream TV programs from your Mac to your mobile device. (As with EyeTV, Live TV requires some supporting hardware and software—the TubeStick hybrid, which is a digital analog TV receiver for the Mac, and The Tube desktop software.)

International buyers of cotton are increasingly looking at the length uniformity index (LUI) as an indicator of how well the fiber will work on their ring spinning machines.
Unfortunately, says Vikki Martin, associate director of fiber quality for Cotton Incorporated, "This is one fiber quality trend for U.S. cotton that has declined over the past several years. We've taken a pretty good hit in the international marketplace on LUI."
In 2004, she told members of the Southern Cotton Ginners Association at their annual meeting at Memphis, "only 41 percent of the U.S. crop met this highly desirable quality level for the international market; in 2005, only 17.2 percent; and in 2006, only 29.9 percent."
U.S. textile mills, Martin noted, predominantly use open-end rotor spinning equipment; for them, strength is the most important fiber quality parameter.
"In the overseas market, they mainly use ring spinning equipment and fiber length is their No. 1 fiber quality factor. Strength in a ring spinning operation is directly related to fiber length."
The change in the U.S. cotton industry from a chiefly domestic market to one that's export driven has brought significant changes in the fiber qualities that buyers want, she said.
"Less than 10 years ago, we were using 70 percent of the cotton produced in the U.S. in our domestic textile mills. Now, most of our cotton is going to the international market."
The base quality that international buyers are expecting, Martin said, "is higher than what we've traditionally produced in the United States. Now, they're wanting 35-26 staple, 27-28 grams per tex, 3.8-4.6 micronaire, 82 length uniformity index or better, 21-31 color grade, and 2-3 leaf grade.
"Those higher expectations by foreign mills are based in large part on tradition and logistics — they traditionally have bought higher quality than they needed because, so far away, they don't have the luxury of getting another shipment next week.
"And with their utilization of ring spinning equipment, there is now also a strong manufacturing reason for specifying higher quality."
An analysis of the U.S. crop over the past two years shows just over 30 percent would meet the minimum quality expectations of international buyers, Martin said.
As for the increasingly important LUI, she said, "Unfortunately, we don't really know what impact variety, weather, and other influences have on this. We do know that, going forward, breeders are going to need to pay more attention to things such as fiber length distribution."
Comparing the U.S. and Chinese cotton crops, "We can see that they consistently have a higher LUI than we do."
Neps (immature cotton fibers) are another concern in the cotton quality equation, Martin said.
"You don't know they're there until they show up in the fabric and it's too late to do anything about it. Neps won't dye, resulting in white specks in the fabric.
"Seventy-five percent of the world's cotton is still harvested by hand, which results in fewer neps. U.S. conventionally-harvested cotton averages 250 neps per gram; stripper cotton 360 neps per gram; while the world average is only 150 neps per gram."
The No. 1 controllable quality issue for U.S. cotton, Martin said, is contamination.
"We enjoy an excellent reputation for having very low levels of contamination, but there are still problems with plastic Wal-Mart bags, bird feathers, etc. International buyers would like a guarantee of 100-percent contamination-free cotton. That's totally unrealistic, but anything we can do to further minimize this problem will be to our advantage."
China is the largest textile producer in the world, Martin noted, and "huge increases in textile consumption occurred in that country from 2002-2005. That's expected to continue.
"Merchandisers there have been taking a lesson from the U.S., studying what consumers want and targeting their products to specific ages and buying groups. The Chinese retail market is mainly women ages 20-34, and the leading shopping item is clothing, even ahead of food."
All this means China has tremendous potential for growth in cotton consumption, Martin said.
"Its use outstrips its domestic production, even though it had a record harvest, estimated at 30.9 million bales."
U.S. export levels to China haven't been as high as expected in recent months, she said, mainly because that government has required mills to use up cotton reserves.
"But at some point, they'll need to start importing cotton and we need to be able to give them the qualities they want."

This 30.8mm wide and 44mm tall, 14k gold medal weighs 27.7 grams and is inset with 34 small diamonds and one large ruby. Unfortunately the medal is also unsigned so who ever made and designed it remains a mystery.
At the top of the medal a partially uncoiled ribbon protects the protruding ruby torch while also forming a watch fob type loop. Added to the top of this fob loop is a "V" shaped double loop which makes it possible to wear this medal on a neck chain.
The obverse design portrays "Electricity" as an allegorical male figure stepping across the top of the world while holding a banner on which an old electric street car is depicted. His left hand holds a red (the ruby) torch above his head to light the way. Behind the banner are the twin gas storage tanks of the old Milwaukee coal gas manufacturing plant.
The reverse legend "VETERANS ASS'N OF T M E R & L CO & ASSOCIATED COMPANIES" transliterates as the long term and retired employees association of The Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Company and associated companies.
In the center is the five line inscription "JAMES D. SHAW // 40 // YEARS SERVICE // 1899 // W.E.P. CO." In this case the "W.E. P. CO." stands for the Wisconsin Electric Power Company and 1899 is the year that Shaw started representing The Milwaukee Electric Railway & Light Company as their attorney.
The fact that this medal was actually issued in 1939 and not 1899, is a good example of just how misleading dates on a medals can be.
In 1938 The Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Company was ordered broken up by the courts. Compliance resulted in the reformation and renaming of the old Light portion of TMER&L Co. as the Wisconsin Electric Power Company. The old Electric Railway portion became The Milwaukee Electric Railway & Transit Company which was a subsidiary of the W.E.P. Company.
So who was James D. Shaw?
James Deyo Shaw was born Feb. 7, 1879 in Jackson, Michigan. He graduated with an LL.B (Bachelor of Laws) degree from the University of Wisconsin in Madison on June 18, 1899 and went to work for the Milwaukee law firm of Spooner and Rosecrantz in the same year. The firm which specialized in utilities and tax law, assigned Shaw to represent their client TMER&L Co. which was then a young company formed just three years before. As the firm grew and evolved Shaw rose to full and senior partnership by the 1920's when the firm was known as Shaw, Muskat & Paulson. By then Shaw was also the General Counsel and a director of the W.E.P. Co. and it's subsidiaries: the Transport Company, the Wisconsin Gas & Light Co. and the Wisconsin-Michigan Power Company.
In 1947 Shaw died of a Cerebral Hemorrhage resulting from an automobile accident. By the time of his death he had amassed a sizeable fortune which left his wife Dorothy well provided for until her death in 1980.
His wife Dorothy was a remarkable woman in her own right. After her passing she left an endowment fund of 4.5 million dollars in trust with the Greater Milwaukee Foundation which specializes in charitable trust fund management. This fund resulted in the establishment of the Shaw Scientist Award which since 1982 has given in excess of 12 million dollars in unrestricted research grants to 54 "Shaw Scientists" doing work in the biological, medical and environmental fields.

Harrell outdueled as Astros blanked by Pirates
Righty allows just a solo homer, but offense can't solve Locke
PITTSBURGH -- The performance Astros right-hander Lucas Harrell delivered Sunday afternoon would have been good enough on most days for a win. He spotted his sinker to both sides of the plate, coaxed the Pirates into hitting ground ball after ground ball and turned in his best game of the year.
Not even a vintage performance by Harrell was enough to save the Astros from another road loss.
Pirates starter Jeff Locke threw seven scoreless innings and allowed only three singles, and Pedro Alvarez shot a line-drive home run down the left-field line in the fifth inning to send the Astros to a 1-0 loss in the series finale at PNC Park.
"I think you look today and their guy did a pretty good job," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "I thought our guy did a great job, but Alvarez put a good swing on a good pitch and it ended up being the difference in the ballgame. But I don't think there's anybody that can hang their heads today. Both teams had a chance to win, but their guy just happened to put a good swing on a good pitch and hit it out of the ballpark."
Houston's first Interleague series of the season saw it lose a pair of one-run games and win an extra-inning affair Saturday in a tight series against the Astros' former National League Central rivals. That gives Porter reasons for optimism.
"We're playing a lot better," he said. "They sent a guy to the mound that had good stuff and he did a tremendous job against our lineup. Anytime a game is 1-0, obviously you're talking about a pitching duel. That one ball that was driven over the wall could have very well hit off the wall and we could still be out there playing and it could be 0-0. He put a good swing on it and ended up leaving the ballpark."
Harrell and Locke both carried no-hitters into the fifth inning in a game that wound up being played in 2 hours, 24 minutes -- the shortest of the season for Houston. Harrell hadn't pitched beyond the fifth in any of his previous three starts, going 0-2 with an 8.79 ERA in that span.
During his between-starts bullpen sessions, Harrell worked extensively on his mechanics with pitching coach Doug Brocail, and he saw the dividends Sunday.
"He really preached to me during my side about fastball command to both sides of the plate, and I felt like today was the first game this year where I really dominated both sides of the plate with my sinker," he said. "[Catcher Carlos] Corporan and I had a great game plan, and he did his homework and I just followed along with his plan. I didn't shake him off much and the defense played great behind me."
Corporan called Harrell's performance "beautiful," and said the right-hander threw almost nothing but sinkers because they were so effective.
"His sinker was unbelievable today," he said. "Alvarez just put a good swing on one and hit it out of the ballpark. Other than that, it was unhittable. We didn't even use his curveball, maybe three or four times. It was sinker, sinker, sinker."
Harrell looked to be in top-notch form from the get-go when he retired the Pirates 1-2-3 in the first inning on three groundouts. Through four innings, he had given up only one walk and had yet to allow a ball to be hit out of the infield.
The Pirates' first hit came with one out in the fifth inning when Alvarez socked a sinker down and away for a line-drive home run that traveled 330 feet and went just inside the foul pole.
"You had the feeling the first run someone got would be it," Locke said.
Locke, meanwhile, was just as stingy, the first hit off him Corporan's leadoff single in the fifth. The Astros got leadoff singles by Harrell in the sixth and Chris Carter in the seventh, but Houston didn't get a runner past second base.
"We couldn't manufacture anything," Porter said. "Their guy did a good job. He changed speeds and pitched to both sides of the plate and kept us away from the barrel. Sometimes you have to tip your cap and give credit to the other guy."
The only base hit with a runner in scoring position in the game came in the sixth inning, when Gaby Sanchez singled to center with two outs and Travis Snider on second base. Astros center fielder Brandon Barnes played it perfectly, firing to the plate to Corporan, who survived a hard shove from Snider to get the third out.
"Lucas kept us in the game the whole time, and it stinks we couldn't capitalize on that," Barnes said. "He pitched his butt off, and the guy on the other side did a great job, too."

SenseClusters - Cluster similar contexts using co-occurrence matrices and Latent Semantic Analysis
SenseClusters is a suite of Perl programs that supports unsupervised clustering of similar contexts. It relies on it's own native methodology, and also provides support for Latent Semantic Analysis.
SenseClusters is a complete system that takes users from preprocessing of raw text to providing clustered output. It supports the selection of features, the creation of various kinds of context representations, dimensionality reduction by singular value decomposition, clustering, and analysis of results.
SenseClusters integrates specialized tools such as the Ngram Statistics Package (Text::NSP), SVDPACK, the Perl Data Language (PDL) and CLUTO to provide a variety of choices and high efficiency at each step in its processing.
SenseClusters supports several different methods of clustering contexts. These include the native SenseClusters methodology, which is based on the use of first and second order representations of contexts. It also includes support for clustering lexical features using the native SenseClusters methodology or Latent Semantic Analysis.
SenseClusters is based strictly on lexical features and does not rely on any manually created training data or external knowledge sources, and as such is language independent. The only requirement is that the language should be able to be tokenized via Perl regular expressions, which can be specified by the user. In fact, tokenization is so flexible that features could consist of characters, pairs of characters, etc.
SenseClusters can be applied to the problem of discriminating word meanings or ambiguous names, using the target or head word representation. This is sometimes also called "headed" data, where each context is centered around the given target whose meanings are to be discovered. In this case the contexts that contain the given target word are clustered, and each cluster is assumed to correspond to a different meaning of that word.
SenseClusters can also be applied to the problem of grouping short units of text that have no target or head (which is sometimes referred to as a "headless" representation. In this case there is no head or center to the context, so the entire context is being clustered to determine the meaning or topic of the context as a whole. Email categorization or news article clustering are examples of problems that could be approached using headless data.
SenseClusters will automatically determine the number of clusters in the data based on a number of different automatic stopping measures we have developed, three of which are based on clustering criterion function, and one which is an adaptation of the well-known Gap Statistic.
SenseClusters can also be applied to the problem of clustering words or lexical features, in hopes of discovering synonyms, antonyms, or other classes of words.
Broadly speaking, SenseClusters can be used for any task that requires the recognition of contextually similar units of text, or words that occur in similar contexts.
All programs have inline source code documentation written in pod style and this can be browsed from command line as a man page or using the 'perldoc' command. For example, 'man bitsimat.pl' or 'perldoc bitsimat.pl' will displayed the documentation for the bitsimat.pl program. Each program also has a --help option to provide information about program options.
You can see all of the modules and their associated documentation at README.Toolkit.
You might first like to run the demonstration scripts in samples/ directory to get an idea of SenseClusters' usage and functionality, or try the web interface that is provided at http://senseclusters.sourceforge.net.
samples/ contains scripts that utilize the wrapper program discriminate.pl that calls various other programs from the package to run a complete experiment. It also contains examples where specialized experiments are constructed directly from the programs provided in the package. In general it would be useful to consult the flowcharts in doc/Flowcharts to understand the overall structure of the package.
The web interface provides an intuitive means of formulating and running discriminate.pl commands, so the use of the web interface and certainly be instructive in terms of how to formulate discriminate.pl commands.
The contexts that you wish to cluster must be in Senseval-2 format. This is a simple XML markup that indicates the beginning and end of each context, and allows you to specify a target word and a "correct" categorization of the context, if you know that information. There is a pre-processing program text2sval.pl in Toolkit/preprocess/plain/ that converts plain text data (with a single context on each line) into Senseval-2 format. There is also a large amount of sample data that is already in Senseval-2 format available at http://senseclusters.sourceforge.net
You can also (optionally) provide a separate training file in plain text format to be used as the feature selection data. If you don't do this, then the features will be selected from the contexts to be clustered.
After downloading and unpacking SenseClusters, you should find following files/directories within SenseClusters' directory.

By Dr. Elias Akleh
April 28th, 2012
The month of April commemorates many historical genocides. Among these is the Zionist total destruction and massacre of Palestinian town of Deir Yassin that ushered the beginning of the still-going on Palestinian Holocaust. As a Palestinian I could not help but revisit, research and re-evaluate the role of Zionists in the many other Holocausts around the world and compare them to the Jewish Holocaust.
The Holocaust; the burning of the round figure of 6 million Jews in Nazi gas chambers, is considered by many to be the most unique event in the whole human history. This event had morphed into multiple shapes. It had become a religion with memorials and museums erected in every Western country to drill the idea in the minds of new generations especially Jews. It had become a vendetta with Jewish "detectives" with the mindset of "never forget and never forgive" chasing Nazi Holocaust criminals all over the world to bring them to "Jewish justice" in Israeli courts. It has become a taboo, whose study and research, as a historical event, by academics has become a punishable crime in European countries. It has become a psychological tool to pin heavy blame on the World for letting it happen. It has become a political game where enormous amounts of Jewish money would go to politicians, who sympathize with Holocaust survivors and with Israel. It has become a colonial weapon justifying Zionist occupation of Palestine. It has become an industry by which Israel and the millions of so-called Holocaust survivals embezzle large sums of money as reparation from Germany, its corporations, its insurance companies, its people, and from other European corporations.
Lately these Holocaust survivors in the US are pressuring the Congress to formulate legal bills that allow them to use American courts to sue European companies who allegedly cooperated in any way with the Nazis leading to the Holocaust. American legislators had produced such bills as the Holocaust Rail Justice Act and the Holocaust Insurance Accountability Act allowing these survivors to sue insurance companies for $20 billion and European rail companies such as the French Société Nationale des Chemins de fer Français (SNCF). It is interesting to note that such bills came after SNCF had won a bid on a $2.6 billion rail projects linking some major American cities together.
The rounded 6 million number is in itself a very interesting figure. It brings to memory other 6 million Jews who were allegedly slaughtered after WWI according to one former governor of the State of N.Y., Martin Glynn, who published such story in "The American Hebrew" in October 31st 1919 under the title "The Crucifixion of Jews Must Stop". He stated that six million Jewish men and women and eight hundred thousand Jewish babies whose blood "ran like gutters of a slaughter house" in cities of Romania, Poland and Ukrainia. Between 1919 and 1927 the figure of 6 million Jewish victims was reported many times in the American media. It was reported in New York Times issues of October 31st, November 12th, December 3rd of 1919 issues, in 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 7th May 1920 issues, and in April 21st and December 4th 1926 issues, just to mention only one media outlet. It is, paradoxically, interesting to remember that Chaim Weizmann, then the president of the Zionist World Organization, addressed the 1936 Peel Commission that partitioned Palestine, affirming that 6 million Jews were living in all Europe as if in a prison (Thomas Mann; "Sieben Manifeste zur judische Frage, Seven Manifests about the Jewish Question"; Jos. Meizer Verlag, Darmstadt 1966. P. 18). The 6 million figure seems to have a significant symbol in the alleged saga of Jewish suffering. According to Benjamin Blech's book "The Secret of Hebrew Words" ;(Jason Aronson, Northvale, NJ, 1991, p. 214) there is a Jewish prophecy promising Jewish return to their alleged promised land after the slaughter of 6 million of them. It seems that this 6 million figure is based on mythical religious colonial ambition rather than any verifiable factual statistical knowledge.
A brief study of the three thousand years of Jewish history leads one to the realization that Zionism is just another modern term given to the religious-Jewish-world-control dream. Starting with their Old Testament and up to their terrorist colonial Israeli project in Palestine one cannot help but conclude that exploitations, sexual degeneracy, theft, treachery, brutality, murder, random killing, communal massacres, total destruction, and the death of all non-Jews (Goyims) are only parts and parcels of the daily life and existence of this Jewish religiously racist collective. Since their descendant onto the land of Canaanites the Jews had perpetrated the most egregious total annihilation not just of its indigenous population but also the annihilation of other nations around the world that surmounted any alleged Holocaust of their own.
Detailing these Jewish crimes, whether perpetrated directly by Jews or in proxy, requires large volumes. This article will deal only with few and the most recent.
The annihilation of at least 20 million Russian citizens (Russian Holocaust) by Jewish officers during the Zionist planned Bolshevik Revolution is a well known case. The American Hebrew Magazine, New York, September 10th, 1920 confessed that "The Bolshevik Revolution in Russia was the work of Jewish planning and Jewish dissatisfaction. Our plan is to have a New World Order. What worked so wonderfully in Russia is going to become Reality for the whole world". Winston Churchill, himself, warned in an article published in February 8th 1920 issue of the London Illustrated Sunday Herald that Bolshevism is a Jewish worldwide conspiracy. The Israeli leading ynetnews addressed this Russian Holocaust in 2006 by stating that "… some of the greatest murderers of modern times were Jewish". In December 1917 Stalin established The All-Russian Extraordinary Commission for Combating Counter-Revolution and Sabotage known as Cheka, renamed later as GPU, MKVD, MVD and finally KGB, whose around 80% of its rank-and-file agents were Jews.
Due to Stalin's collectivization orders many Russian towns were confiscated, their citizens, whose majority were Christians, arrested, tortured and killed, their churches were destroyed, while synagogues were preserved, by these Jewish agents. Among the worst mass murdering Jewish agents were Genrikh Yagoda, Christian butcher Lazar Kaganovich, Lavrentija Berija, and Ilya Ehrenburg just to mention few. Yagoda was responsible for the murder of 10 million Russian citizens. Kaganovich destroyed the entire Ukrainian farming and peasant population; 14 million of them (Der Spiegel, Germany, 35/1991 p. 151). Berija murdered 27,500 Polish officers, soldiers, and civilians in what is known as Katyn-Massacre (Der Spiegel, Germany, 8/1996 p.147). Ehrenburg murdered 3 million women, children, and old people in eastern territory of Germany (Frankfut Allgemeine Zeitung, Franfurt, Feb. 28th, 1995 p.7).
Many may be surprised to read that the Armenian Genocide (Holocaust) was perpetrated, not by the Turks, but by Turkish Jewry known as Crypto-Jews, or Marranos, or Donmeh. For political reasons many Jews in many countries pretend to convert to other religions in order to rise to influential political positions in order to adopt pro-Zionist policies. Israel Zangwill, a prominent and influential Zionist, explained this tactic in his article "The Jewish Race" in The Independent, volume 71, number 3271, dated August 10th 1911. Those crypto-Jews formed the "Committee for Union and Progress" (Ittihad ve Terakke) that led the Young Turk Revolution overthrowing the Turkish Empire. The Young Turk Revolution was financed and led by the Salonika Committee that was established by Zionist Masonic Jews of Salonika, Greece, such as Emmanuel Carasso, Salem, Sassun, Fardji, with the cooperation of influential Turkish crypto-Jews Djavid Bey and the Baldji family. Sir Gerard Lowther, UK Ambassador to Ottoman Empire from 1908 – 1913, exposed this Jewish takeover in numerous letters to the British Foreign Office revealing the names of Jews from Salonika and crypto-Jews, whose ultimate goal was to acquire Palestine for the Jews through the eliminating of Sultan Abdulhamid II, who rejected Herzl's offer to give Palestine to the Zionists as a debt repayment. All this was reported by The London Times (July 11th, 1911 p. 5) under the title of "Jews and the Situation in Albania".
Armenians were running the major businesses and professions in Turkish Empire keeping it economically successful. They formed a rich class; an intelligentsia that gained influential political positions in the Empire. Zionists wanted to control the empire by inciting internal ethnic conflicts to get rid of Armenians and to take over their businesses and political positions. So they promised Christian Armenian leaders to regain independent Armenia if they help dismantle the empire, and at the same time they promised Muslim Kurdish leaders to form independent Kurdistan if they exterminated Armenians. In this way Zionists incited religious war to weaken and to drain the empire financially. The Armenians were duped by Zionists' promises and publically endorsed the Balfour Declaration hoping that UK would protect them from the Turks and support them in forming an independent Armenian State. Crypto-Jews, then, led Sultan Abdul Hamid to believe that Armenian revolutionaries were conspiring with foreign Christian missionaries to take over the empire, and prompted him to order the Young Turks, mainly crypto-Jews, to commit atrocities against Armenians to put down any revolution.
Zionist crypt-Jews, not Turks, were principally responsible for the Armenian Holocaust. Lord Bryce stated in 1915: "High Muslim religious authorities condemned the massacres ordered by Abdul Hamid. In some cases the Governors, being pious and humane men, refused to execute the orders that had reached them, and endeavored to give what protection they could to the unfortunate Armenians."
Yair Auron wrote in his book "Zionism and the Armenian Genocide: The Banality of Indifference": "The fact that Jews were involved in the acts of murder of Armenians in 1895 and 1896 is confirmed by internal Jewish archival documentation." To get more in depth details about Zionist Jewish genocide of Armenians follow the link to read Christopher Jon Bjerknes' research "The Jewish Genocide of Armenian Christians", and his interview.
The African Holocaust perpetrated by Jewish slave traders is still unknown by many. In his book "Jews and Judaism in the United States; a Documentary History" (New York, Behrman House, Inc., 1983) Rabbi Raphael stated on pages 14 and 23-25 that "Jews also took an active part in the Dutch colonial slave trade … In Curacao in the seventeenth century, as well as in the British colonies of Barbados and Jamaica in the eighteenth century, Jewish merchants played a major role in the slave trade. In fact, in all the American colonies, whether French (Martinique), British, or Dutch, Jewish merchants frequently dominated."
The first documented Jew immigrant to America came from Holland in 1654 and settled in what was known, then, as New Amsterdam (New York). Many other Jews followed and settled along the East Coast forming six Jewish communities in Newport, Charleston, New York, Philadelphia, Richmond, and Savannah. They engaged mainly into the business of alcohol distillery and/or slave trade. There was a period when Newport, Rhode Island, was commonly referred to as "The Jewish Newport-World center of Slave Commerce." The most known of these Jewish slave traders were Aaron Lopez, Felix (cha-cha) de Souza (known as the Prince of Slavers), Isaac Gomez, Abraham Touro, Moses Hays, Abraham Mendes among others.
These traders send their ships to Africa loaded with alcohol selling it cheap to tribal leaders to intoxicate them in order to help them hunt and capture as slaves members of other tribes preferably young and women. They chuckled the slaves and drove them through the jungles to the coast, where they load them onto the ships on top of each other like cattle immersed in their excrements with little food and water to endure the long voyage back to the American colonies to be auctioned out.
Many of these slaves did not survive the trip and died out of exhaustion, hunger, sickness and torture. It was estimated that nine out of ten had died. Reports of the 1764 Chamber of Commerce of the "Rhode Island Colony" estimated the number of captured slaves was one million a year. During 113 years between 1661 to 1774 a conservative number of 110 million African natives were snatched out of their homeland away from their own families. Only about 10%, or eleven million, of them reached the Colonies alive. The rest, about 99 million perished on the way.
To become more informed of this holocaust one can refer to "The Secret Relationships between Blacks and Jews" by J. & L. T. Levin, "The Jewish Onslaught" book by Tony Martin, or to "Who Brought the Slaves to America" by Walter White Jr. Better yet, one can turn to the official main source; The Carnegie Institute in Washington, D.C. contains public authentic documents entitled "Documents Illustrative of the History of the Slave Trade in America" with sales receipts and letters between Jewish slave ships owners, such as Aaron Lopez, and his ship captains Nathaniel Briggs, David Mill and Abraham All.
The Palestinian Holocaust perpetrated by Zionist Israeli Jews under the watchful eyes of the whole world is still an on-going graduated Holocaust for the last 65 years (history). Religiously racist fundamentalist Jews claim that their racist god had chosen and elevated only the Jews over the rest of the nations and had promised them Palestine as their pure-Jewish state. Israeli Jews are sparing no effort and are using all lethal and devastating weapons to massacre as much Palestinians as they could (also here), evict them from their homes, destroy their cities and raze every trace of their existence, destroy all Christian as well as Muslim religious sites, in order to build their racist Jewish-only state. In their attempt, and since 1947, they had murdered at least 2 million Palestinians, evicted another million out of the country, destroyed and completely razed about 500 towns (400 towns in 1948), violated all the international laws and UN resolutions, and committed international crimes.
Worse than the alleged Nazi crimes, Israeli Jews intentionally and pre-meditatively committed massacres of civilians targeting mainly children (google: "Palestinian children killed by Israel") and women in particular. They used napalm and phosphorous bombs to burn whole civilian neighborhoods and their civilian inhabitants. They erected the largest ever open-air concentration camps in Gaza Strip and turned every Palestinian town into isolated prisons surrounded by high cement walls and barbed wires with steel gates and remote electronically-controlled armed watch towers. Israeli army had attacked all the neighboring Arab states; Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon destroying their towns and committing massacres against civilians. Israeli Mossad agents committed terrorist attacks within all the Arab states, and reached even Turkey and Iran. They even hit Arab assets in European and even American cities. Israelis had built hundreds of nuclear bombs and keep threatening regional as well as world peace.
The greatest Holocaust that dwarfs all other holocausts is the physical and cultural American Indian Holocaust; many hundreds of millions of the inhabitants of the whole continent of North America, who were fighting white European terrorism since 1492 in what is known as "500 years war". I was not very surprised when I discovered that Jews had played a major part in this holocaust. See "Jewish Racism and the Genocide of American Indians", by Richard Boyden; a Jewish Journalist, and "The American Holocaust; Dare to Compare: Americanizing the Holocaust" a historical research study by Lilian Friedberg a Jewish scholar.
The German Holocaust after WWII (The Unknown Holocaust) is unknown to many and is rarely talked about. After the end of the war 14 million Germans were systematically expelled from their towns, robbed, raped and killed or let die (Alfred-Maurice de Zayas, "A terrible Revenge: The Ethnic Cleansing of the Eastern European Germans, 1944-1950", New York: St. Martin's Press, 1994). There was also the pre-meditated deliberate murder of at least one million German POW on the hands of the allied forces in freezing open concentration prison camps at Sinzig and Rheinberg, (James Bacque's "Other Losses"; General Paperbacks, Toronto, Canada, not allowed to enter USA), and (Giles MacDonogh's "After the Reich: The Brutal History of the Allied Occupation", New York: Basic Books, 2007).
These are just a few, a drop in the ocean, of the Holocausts perpetrated by the Jews. There are, also, other devastating atrocities that filled the human history. Gideon Polya's impressive article enumerates many of them. Others include the American unnecessary nuclear bombing of the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki that burned within minutes about 500 thousand Japanese civilians and later caused the death and mutilation of many other thousands. The Allied bombing of the non-military cultural German city of Dresden with phosphorous bombs burned at least 130 thousand German civilians. These two are real "shoahs" burning. There is also Churchill's Holocaust of 2 million Bengali victims through his 1943 deliberate famine. Let us not forget the Holocaust of WWII with 66 million victims, and the American Holocausts against countries like Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq just to mention a few.
The realities of all these historical crimes, except the Jewish Holocaust, can be investigated, researched, studied, criticized, and corrected by anyone and by any organization such as historians, students, schools and universities, reporters, and all types of media outlets. Those, who dare to investigate the Jewish Holocaust on the other hand, are ridiculed, criticized, attacked, fined, punished, imprisoned, and persecuted. European countries have laws that criminalize any historian, who publishes a Holocaust historical study that contradicts the Zionist version no matter how scientific the study is. These laws of the alleged democratic countries contradict Article 19 of the UN Human Rights Charter that states: "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to see, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."
Criminalizing any study, investigation and denial of the Holocaust aims to cover the ugly facts of close Zionist Nazi cooperation in persecuting European Jews ("No Shame", "Min Hameitzar: The Millions That Could Have Been Saved", and "Holocaust Victims Accuse") forcing them to immigrate to Palestine, and to cover Zionist terrorist attacks against British troops occupying Palestine and against Palestinian citizens. Research proved that the German Nazi Party was heavily financed by Jewish financiers such as Kuhn Loeb & Company, J. P. Morgan & Company, Samuel & Samuel of London, and Royal Dutch Shell. Hitler had supported Zionism since the Zionist religious pure Jewish God's chosen ideology resembled Nazi Germany pure Aryan Super race ideology. From 1933 to 1941 German SS and Gestapo were particularly enthusiastic in their support to Zionism, and supported and encouraged Jewish immigration to Palestine (Mark Weber's "Zionism and the Third Reich"). In cooperation with Zionist leaders they constructed a network of 40 camps and agricultural centers "Labor Camps" to re-educated young Jews with their Jewishness, and to train them militarily and agriculturally in preparation for their new communal Kibbutz life in Palestine. From 1933 -1941 the Nazi/Zionist Transfer Agreement "The Haavara" enabled 60 thousand German Jews to be transferred on German ships to Palestine with all their wealth. In 1941 Jewish terrorist groups in Palestine, such as Lehi or Stern Gang, offered Nazi Germany a political and military alliance and conducted terrorist attacks against British troops in Palestine.
The Jewish Holocaust is the major justification for financing, arming and building the Zionist colonial project of the state of Israel in Palestine. Exposing the Holocaust lie would collapse the Zionist dream of Greater Israel in the Middle East.

I just posted the next couple videos in the Renaissance 2.0 series. They are the first 2 parts of Lesson 4 on the Culture of Empire. I think this type of content is important to help people understand WHY we need to move beyond debt-based money at the federal level and fix the Federal Reserve monetary system without only relying on math and spreadsheet models.To view the other videos in this series (and the very cool artwork of AZRainman), please visit Renaissance 2.0
The fact is, most people don't care about the numerical justifications. It's just not interesting to them because it only speaks to the left brain...it doesn't engage the right brain and our deeper emotions, which would help them understand why their left brain should care. The Culture of Empire does engage the deeper issues. People do care about their lives, their families' lives, their communities, and the natural world they live in. That's the purpose of Lesson 4. It should help all of us explain the "why it matters" issue to people who haven't already joined an effort to reform the monetary system.

BERLIN – The leftwing opposition politician who was Germany's finance minister when the euro was adopted says it's time to think about abandoning the common currency in the wake of the enormous economic problems in southern Europe.
Oskar Lafontaine says on his website that struggling eurozone countries have not been able to devalue their currencies to help them cope with the economic crisis that has seen several slip into recession.
Lafontaine proposes a restructuring of Europe's banking system, stricter controls on lenders, and a return to the European monetary system that preceded the euro.
Lafontaine is now out of federal politics but is still an influential member of the Left Party, the successor to former East German communists.

New Developers
Welcome, new developer! This page will help you get started using this site to help us develop the Rappture toolkit. Start by downloading the code. Make some changes, check it in. Voila! You're a Rappture developer!
Getting the Code
First step is to download the Rappture development code. To do this, you'll need Subversion, an open source version control system. You can download Subversion for all major platforms, including Linux, Windows, and MacOSX. If you're working on Windows, the Tortoise SVN package is particularly slick. It lets you control SVN functions via right-click menus as you navigate the file system. Subversion is similar to CVS, so if you've used that before, you'll feel right at home.
Once Subversion is installed, you download the Rappture code as follows:
% svn checkout https://nanohub.org/infrastructure/rappture/svn/trunk rappture
The checkout command makes a local copy of the entire Rappture source tree into your current working directory as a subdirectory called rappture. By requesting .../rappture/trunk, you get the main development trunk, which should have the latest code. If you're looking for stable code, you should install the latest stable release.
Making Changes
Once you've downloaded the code, you can make whatever changes you like. For example, you might edit a file to fix a bug or add some code. To make your changes permanent, you must {{{commit}} them to the repository as follows:
% cd rappture % svn commit --message "fixed my first bug!"
You don't have to include the optional --message argument. If you just say svn commit, Subversion will prompt you for comments in your favorite editor, and you can type much more.
It's best to commit at the top of the source tree--that's why we said "cd rappture" in the example above. When you commit at the top of the tree, Subversion will search everything below, find all files that have changed, and commit them all at once. Committing a change makes it permanent. Once committed, other developers will see the change. If for some reason, you want to throw away your changes and start fresh, you can simply remove your source tree and check it out all over again. Or, you may want to remove just a few files that you've modified, and then update (as we'll see below) to replace the missing files with their previous version.
From time to time, you and another developer will modify the same file at the same time. Suppose the other developer checks in his changes first. When you try to commit, you'll get an error saying that your file is out-of-date. In that case, you need to update before committing. You can do that as follows:
% cd rappture % svn update
It's best to update at the top of the source tree--just like commit. That's why we said "cd rappture" in the example above. When you update at the top of the tree, Subversion will search everything below, adding any new files, replacing any missing files, and integrating changes made by other developers. Once all files are properly updated, you can commit your changes again, and this time, it will work.

The week in review
Most disaster prone: The 5.8 magnitude Cuckoo quake August 23, followed four days later by Hurricane Irene, causes the governor to raise the inevitable question: When does the swarm of locusts arrive?
Most damaged: Two Louisa schools– Louisa County High School and Thomas Jefferson Elementary– will be closed for the school year and may be beyond repair. The Fauquier Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court in the John Marshall Building in Warrenton is closed because of quake damage and moving into lease office space. Culpeper loses a 19th-century building on Main Street.
Most powerless: Dominion Virginia Power estimates 800,000 Virginians are without electricity early August 28 and says for some, it could be one to two weeks before it's restored.
Worst accident: Allison L. Buck, 18, of Palmyra, is ejected from her car in a single-vehicle crash on Route 53 around 10pm August 25 and dies at the scene.
Latest Blue Ridge Parkway casualties: The body of Harvey Mars, 70, from Fishersville, is found in his car August 28 down a 40-foot embankment near Humpback Rocks, WINA reports. Mars had been missing since August 24. And the body of a 39-year-old woman who died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound is discovered August 29 at the Rockfish Valley overlook at milepost 1.5, according to the News Leader. Reports say she was Lisa Michelle Harrison, the former Robert E. Lee High School bookkeeper charged a few days earlier with embezzlement.
Latest move for Colette Blount: The unsuccessful City Council candidate files for reelection to the Charlottesville School Board, WINA reports. Seven candidates want one of the four open seats: Guian McKee, Steven Latimer, Jennifer McKeever, Wilma Neale, Amy Laufer, and Ivana Kadija.
Biggest move: Martha Jefferson Hospital, undeterred by hurricane warnings, pushes forward with its August 28 move to new digs on Pantops.
First birth: Alex Irwin arrives on the scene less than two hours after the hospital completes its monve, NBC29 reports.
Latest perv hoping to hook up with a 13-year-old online: Shakir A. Moore, 24, of Richmond, is sentenced to five years in Louisa August 29 for soliciting undercover cops pretending to be a girl on Craigslist, according to a release. Moore showed up to his date with candy and condoms.
Worst breakfast gone awry: A kitchen fire melts the microwave and burns cabinets around 11am August 27 at 701 Shamrock Avenue, but is extinquished with baking soda by a quick-thinking resident, according to Charlottesville Fire Chief Charles Werner. A can of what appears to be La Costena beans on the counter seems unscathed.
Worst blaze on Ridge Street: A fire Sunday afternoon briefly closes the street but is subdued quickly with minor damage to an apartment.
Worst stint of fires: Fumes from an overturned gas can in the basement of a home on 2022 Hessian Road ignite when they reach the water heater's pilot light, creating a flash fire with minimal damage on August 29.
Best false alarm: Reports Friday night of flames coming out of the door of an apartment at Lambeth Commons turn out to be some unauthorized on-balcony grilling.
Best dousing amidst destruction: Hurricane Irene reduced the Great Dismal Swamp fire that's been burning since August 4, Tidewater television stations report.
Best review: UVA art prof Kevin Everson gets a glowing notice from the New York Times for his Whitney Museum show, "More Than That: Films by Kevin Jerome Everson."
Best college town: Southern Living picks Charlottesville because of its "rolling vineyards, the Blue Ridge Mountains, the redbrick Downtown Mall..."
Best satire of UVA in The Onion: "Study: 96 percent of humans would rather be animatronic bear" cites a survey of 196 countries in a 320-report in which the vast majority of humankind would prefer to exist as a robot bear in a life that's always a jamboree and the workday is brief.
Least felicitious choice of party venue? The no-kill Charlottesville Albemarle SPCA hosts its October 29 Critter Ball at Slaughter Hall

Berlin 'Grillwalkers' Sell Sausages Cooked on Wearable Grills
The New York Times has a quick piece on Berlin's grillwalkers, who sell sausages from portable grills that they wear—gas on the back; hot, hot bratfest on the front.
The innovative apparatus sprang up in 1997, when inventor Bertram Rohloff devised it as a way of skirting city street-vendor permits in the city. Without permits, "neither the grill nor the sausages could touch the ground."
As he worked on the invention, Mr. Rohloff considered everything from burning charcoal to hooking the grill up to a car battery — which he rejected because it would run down in just 10 minutes — before settling on propane. He designed it with an automatic cut-off mechanism for the gas, to ensure that it was safe in the event of an accident
According to the story, the Grillwalker franchise has become a common sight in the capital and Mr. Rohloff has hired subcontractors to wear the grills in other German cities.
Note to Erin: Can you get an interview with a German grillwalker for your Street Food Profiles series?

Suspect charged with murder in S.C. campus shooting
- Justin Bernard Singleton%2C 19%2C is charged n the death Brandon Robinson%2C 20
- Robinson died Friday afternoon after he was shot outside Hugine Suites dormitory
- South Carolina State also was the site of a fatal shooting in 2011
ORANGEBURG, S.C. — A suspect was arrested Saturday in the fatal shooting of a student at South Carolina State University, police said.
Justin Bernard Singleton, 19, of Charleston, was taken into custody early Saturday morning and has been charged with murder in the death of Brandon Robinson, 20, of Orangeburg, according to a news release from the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division. His bond was denied at a hearing Saturday morning.
Authorities had said they were looking for four men who had left campus. Thom Berry, a public information officer with the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division, told the Associated Press early Saturday that there was no ongoing safety concern for the community but declined to say whether there was still an active manhunt.
"At this time, we believe we have the individual who fired the shot," Berry said.
Robinson, who played on the school's football team, was shot around 1:30 p.m. ET Friday outside Andrew Hugine Suites, a dormitory for upperclassmen on the campus of the historically black university about 40 miles south of Columbia, S.C.
"We are extraordinarily sad about this," said university President Thomas Elzey, who teared up as he spoke at a Friday evening news conference. "He's a very nice young man ... and it hurts. It hurts us all."
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley offered any help the school needed, Elzey said. Students, faculty and staff are being offered counseling.
"We are at a loss for words right now," head coach Buddy Pough said in a statement from the university Saturday. "The entire university and our athletic family are grieving right now and our hearts are heavy. Our deepest condolences go out to the Robinson family."
"Brandon was a fine young man who was paying his way through college. All he wanted to do was play football for the university. It's a tragic situation, one from which we all must learn," Pough continued.
Athletics Director Charlene Johnson said the university has suffered a great loss.
"We are all saddened by the tragic loss of Brandon Robinson, one of our student-athletes," Athletics Director Charlene Johnson said in a university statement. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family."
Tommy Brown, athletics director and head football coach at Orangeburg-Wilkinson High School, coached Robinson as a prep player and remembered him as a "great kid."
"He just graduated in 2011," Brown said. "I remember him playing for us. For him to be dead at this time is just tough to visualize."
Brown said that after Robinson graduated from high school, he walked-on at the university and made the team. He says the young player likely would have been a starter next season.
"He's such a great kid, he's done so much and he had a great future in front of him," Brown said.
Those at the 3,200-student school were told to shelter in place all afternoon Friday, and no one was allowed to leave or enter the grounds until about 6 p.m.
South Carolina State also was the site of a fatal shooting in 2011, when police said three men met on campus for a drug deal. A student, 22-year-old Jonathan Bailey, was killed.

IF we show up for food and drinks at La Grange
THEN they will reinvest 81.5% of OUR spending on lighting upgrades and waste diversion projects.
13 Oct 2010
La Grange

Eat. Drink. Save the world. Your tab (81% of it) goes to improving the energy efficiency of La Grange. We are a group of eco-conscious consumers from Dallas Green Green Drinks, and we like our spending to do good.
The first Carrotmob in Texas was a BIG hit! The Deep Ellum bar made 300% of their normal sales. The total netted after comps and coupons was $3,650 which left them with a commitment to spend $2,980 on energy efficiency improvements. But the owners decided to accept several recommendations, and spent a total of $3,020 for all the products and services! Here are some of the things they did:
-Installed Solar Screening on the front windows
-Replaced all fluorescent bulbs with natural light LED bulb
-Installed an outdoor bike rack
