|Campaign website
Campaign themes
Stevens' website highlighted the following campaign themes:[1]
Only Individuals Have Rights
- Excerpt: "Ultimately, inalienable rights belong to the individual citizen, and no other entity. Not federal government, not state government, nor any business or corporate entity. Coercion by larger governmental entities is still coercion. Insomuch as individuals do not infringe on another's life, liberty, or property governement at any level does not have the right to interfere."
STOP Runaway Spending
- Excerpt: "I commit to working to change the downward spiral the state is on while there is still time, by voting against any future spending in excess of sustainable levels and for the immediate transfer of the remaining $11 billion in the state's savings accounts into the Permanent Fund where it will be protected by the state constitution from further government raid."
Individual Liberties
- Excerpt: "Alaskans needs a legislator who will review these questions and work to restrict our government's spying activities against its own citizens."
Free Market Solutions
- Excerpt: "History tells us that the greatest innovations of our civilization have come when citizens are free to create and challenge the status quo. Currently, state and federally protected monopolies restrict our ability to create. We need our government to promote creativity with less regulation."
- Excerpt: "I believe in accountability for education spending. Alaska's education costs are the highest in the nation, yet we are last place in 4th grade reading scores and rank 39th overall compared to the other 50 states."
Elections for the office of Alaska House of Representatives took place in 2014. A primary election took place on August 19, 2014. The general election was held on November 4, 2014.

Russia accelerates requirement for local Internet control
No comments · Posted by Lance Cottrell in Censorship, Internet, Russia
On September 24, the Russian Duma passed a bill moving the date on which all Internet services must host local data locally from Sept 1, 2016 to Jan 1, 2015. That is an effectively impossible timeline for international Internet companies, which is probably the whole point.
While the bill has not been finally passed, the remaining steps are mostly formality.
Russia is suggesting that foreign firms could rent infrastructure, if they will have no time to build, giving Russia even stronger leverage.
My original post on the law was back in July, and I talked about other Russian Internet control and censorship activity here.

Brazil enforcing ban on Anonymity
No comments · Posted by Lance Cottrell in Anonymity, Censorship, International
A Brazilian court is enforcing a constitutional ban on anonymity by requiring Apple and Google to remove Secret, an anonymous social network chatting app from their app stores. Microsoft is being required to remove Cryptic, a similar windows phone app.
In addition to that, they have been ordered to remove the app from the phones of all users who have installed it. These kinds of retroactive orders to have companies intrusively modify the contents of all of their customer's devices are concerning. At least these apps are free, if users had paid for them, that would introduce another complication.
One wonders how this will apply to tourists or business travelers visiting Brazil. Will their phones be impacted as well?
The law exists to allow victims of libel or slander to identify and confront their those speakers.
While this ruling only applies to Apple, Google, and Microsoft, and only with respect to the Secret and Cryptic apps, the underlying principle extends much further. There are still final rulings to come, so this is not the last word on this situation.
Anonymizer has had a great many Brazilian customers for many years. Anonymizer provides those users important protections which are well established in international human rights law. We certainly hope that they will continue to be allowed to use our services.

Remember when ESPN, with its depthless capacity for self-aggrandizement, labeled itself the World Wide Leader?
In the shorthand of our BFF txtng age that immediately became the WWL to a lot of media types who chose to play along with the WWL's exercise in self-love. Only now have we tumbled upon what "WWL" really stands for.
World Wide Lapdog.
This after the WWL's embarrassing shill job for LeBron James, who discovered that the WWL's journalistic ethics were indeed for sale and came up with the right asking price, basically renting out the network for his own use. Now comes the news that ESPN pulled an unflattering profile of James from its website.
Said the ESPN suit responsible for saying such things: "The story should never have been published."
No. And no one should ever again refer to ESPN as the World Wide Leader in anything, except perhaps in selling out.

Dragon Quest 10 was "almost done," and then last week, we finally heard about the game itself, due out next year in Japan, via a reveal announcement. But if you thought that was fast, not so -- apparently the title's been worked on for over six years already.
That makes the whole venture a little more interesting. Today, console MMOs and persistent Internet connections are fairly prevalent, but six years ago, that obviously wasn't the case. And this also means that DQ10 ran alongside development of Dragon Quest 9, with Level 5 and Square Enix presumably working on the portable title and the online game at the same time.
We'll have to see how the final game turns out -- fans are skeptical, to say the least, of turning the series into an MMO. But at least we know the game wasn't thrown together overnight.

Obey the rules
Complying with regulations can be tricky enough to turn you into a rebel with a pretty good cause, or so it seems sometimes. Some technology companies, seeing the wisdom of developing products for customers who have to comply with rules, are bringing new tools to market to help ease some of that regulatory burden.
Officials at Vista Technology Services Inc., for example, are developing a set of data-collection and analysis tools to aid agency officials in complying with Executive Order 13327, usually called by its catchier moniker EO13327. Sings, doesn't it?
The order pertains to managing property assets. It requires agencies to collect and use data to manage the 650 million acres of land and 3.5 billion square feet of building space that the government owns.
Agencies have not done well so far, according to Vista officials. And there's no official framework or guidelines that agency leaders can follow to be sure they're complying with the order, although some are on the way from the Office of Management and Budget, according to Vista's chief executive officer, David Baxa.
The company's product starts with tools to help customers assess and catalog their assets, he said.
"In order to do any kind of asset management, you have to understand what you have to start with," he said. "There are a number of agencies that have expressed concern that they need to get a good handle on what they have."
Vista officials approached the problem by building on the company's experience in managing the closure of military bases, which required careful tracking of assets, Baxa said.
The software tools will address three broad areas: the initial inventory, requirements analysis and decision support.
When President Bush issued the executive order earlier this year, Baxa said, Vista officials saw an opportunity.
"We were already doing work in facilities analysis," he said. "It's just a natural extension. We didn't set out this year to necessarily go in this direction, but with the issuance of an executive order, it seemed like a natural fit."
Meanwhile, officials at Lockdown Networks Inc. and Watchfire Corp. are releasing products aimed at agencies trying to comply with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), which requires certain security assessments and protections.
Lockdown is releasing Version 3.0 of its line of network appliances, including a new platform for Lockdown Auditor, said Rick Peterson, the company's director of federal sales.
From the agency perspective, he said, FISMA compliance is "a necessary evil, but [agencies ask themselves], 'How many resources do we assign to that, and what can we get away with? What do we actually have to do?'"
Lockdown's products make it easier for agencies to do the necessary reporting to show that they are complying with the law's requirements, he said.
The products evaluate security threats and risks. "We can give [agency officials] a real-time snapshot of where their security is" and generate reports that they can show OMB officials, he said.
Watchfire has introduced WebXM, AppScan and AppShield, which automate security processes, identify needed architecture updates, analyze all Web-related systems and servers that an agency controls, provide detailed recommendations to help plug vulnerabilities, identify risks and provide auditing, reporting and trending capabilities.
"It will assess your Web applications, looking for a variety of defects," said Steve Orrin, vice president of security and technology at Watchfire. "It's not FISMA-specific; [however,] it will test for all types of security vulnerabilities."

By PAUL WHITFIELD, INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY
Four words are never far from the mind of the savvy investor.
Those four words are: "I could be wrong."
Humility works best in investing, especially if the virtue becomes more than an attitude. Humility must become part of the process.
Stubborn investors are so convinced that they are right about a particular stock that they will not only keep a loser but they'll add money to a losing position.
Adding on the decline is a dangerous technique when buying individual stocks. (A few rare value investors have done it successfully, but the punishment for being wrong is too great for the average investor to risk it.)
Humility, rather than stubbornness, is a much better way to invest.
How do you make humility part of the investing process? It begins with the way you buy a stock.
After thoroughly researching a stock and deciding it's worth buying, the investor should open only a half-size position on the breakout.
Humility says that, even with the probabilities in your favor, you can't know whether the breakout will work. That's why you begin with half the money intended for the investment.
If the stock rises 2% to 2.5% from the proper entry point, the investor adds 30% to the position. Only if the stock rises an additional 2% or so does the investor complete the trade by deploying the final 20% of a full-size position.
If the stock fails to advance, then the buying process is halted. If the stock never gets 2% up but rolls over, the 8% loss is only half what it would've been had the investor plunged in.
If the stock fails to advance after the second purchase, you have a choice. You can exit completely or you can give the position more time, provided the 8% sell rule hasn't been triggered.
In some cases, you will complete the three pyramid buys and still see the stock roll over and force you to cut losses with a sale.
That happens. You cannot expect every trade to work.
The advantage to pyramiding into a trade is that if the confirmed uptrend proves weaker than anybody expected, it will not let you complete most breakout trades. This is an important clue when judging the market's strength, though you should always review a failed trade to make sure you are picking top-notch stocks.
If you are disciplined and restrict buys to quality stocks, then you can be confident the problem is probably the market. This means you should consider taking some money to the sidelines.
Finally, remember that the matters discussed here apply to individual stocks, not mutual funds.
The strategies for investing in mutual funds are entirely different than those for handling an individual stock.
"A stock may decline and never come back in price," IBD founder and Chairman William J. O'Neil writes in "How to Make Money in Stocks," which is why losses must be cut early.
However, "a well-selected, diversified domestic growth-stock fund run by an established management organization will, in time, always recover from the steep corrections that naturally occur during bear markets. The reason mutual funds come back is that they are broadly diversified and generally participate in each recovery cycle in the U.S. economy."
Remember that new issue you bought awhile back this year when it was breaking out of a first-stage IPO base? Up 7% in heavy volume with solid fundamentals? A thing of beauty. But instead of rising even more, the stock reversed in higher volume. Then it fell again. And again. Before you knew it, you ...
IBD founder and Chairman William O'Neil teaches that one key to success in the stock market is not just to be right on a stock but also to make big money when you're right. Experienced investors know that when the dust settles after a rally, the lion's share of your profits will be in one or two ...
Successful investing requires longevity. After all, it's a lifelong pursuit, so objective number one is to keep yourself in the game. That's why IBD's golden rule is to sell any stock that falls 7%-8% below the price you paid for it. This one simple rule will keep you in the game through many ...
The next several Investor's Corner columns will suggest ways to boost your stock portfolio return, immediately and in the long run. Suggestion No. 1: Invest only in truly innovative companies. Innovative, fast-growing and dynamic companies are often the most compelling growth stocks. Quite ...
While IBD's focus is on leading stocks, investors should also take a look at exchanged-traded funds, or ETFs. ETFs can help enhance your investing experience and boost your stock-market profits. Investors can also use ETFs to glean more information about the market. Due to their low cost and ...

Days after the publicized fight between R&B singers Frank Ocean and Chris Brown went down, new reports now debunk rap mogul Jay-Z may have pressured the Odd Future member to take legal action.
Despite the speculation and rumors, new information suggests Hov had no role in Ocean's post-fight actions.
According to a police report, Ocean was attacked by Brown and the singer's entourage outside a recording studio in Los Angeles on Sunday night. Ocean was initially reluctant to file charges, but MTO says he's had a change of heart since talking to Jigga. That's interesting, because a "TOP SOURCE" close to Jigga tells RumorFix that Hov did not pressure Ocean to file charges against Brown, in fact, he hasn't even talked to the singer. (RumorFix)
Initial claims alleged Ocean had Jay's influence in going after Brown legally.
"Oh, what a DIFFERENCE a day makes – and a call from Jay Z. MediaTakeOut.com received word from a top source that after speaking to Jay-Z, Frank Ocean has changed his mind. We're told that Frank is expected to file criminal charges against Breezy before the week is out. And is looking into filing a civil suit against Breezy too." (Media Take Out)
Reports of Frank's legal route strategy surfaced online a couple days ago.
Although officials have yet to file any formal charges, Frank Ocean says he wants Chris Brown prosecuted in light of their scuffle over a parking space in West Hollywood, according to a Reuters report. That would be very bad news for Brown, who's on probation for assaulting his girlfriend, Rihanna, the night before the 2009 Grammy Awards. If charges were filed, it's possible that Brown's probation could be revoked, Reuters said. (Los Angeles Times)
A post-altercation photo of Chris Brown rocking a hand cast popped up Tuesday (January 29).
Chris Brown may have some explaining to do …. for a guy who says he didn't do anything wrong in the brawl with Frank Ocean … why is his punching hand in a cast? Chris emerged from his house Tuesday in a hard cast over his right hand, covering his knuckles. Although we know Chris' version of events is that he did NOT throw the first punch, an eyewitness who spoke with TMZ says he initiated the attack with a swing. (TMZ)

Groningen, Nethe...
Pfew. My hours of fitting, tracing, cutting and sewing have paid off.
The fit of the pattern is great except for the armholes (too small) and the neckline (the two V's make the shoulders drop to the sides. I would recommend making the back V a high neckline instead) I did an FBA and some small adjustments recommended by another Burdastyler (thanks!). I like how this dress fits!
The instructions for the vent are just weird. I would recommend using the great tutorial from the lovely lady Colleen G Lea (fashionsewingblog). It definitely helped me.
As you can see I bound all the seams Hong Kong style. I was surprised how easy this method is but unfortunately this method costs lots and lots of precious sewing time. Eventually I started hating my sewing machine so I will have a little 'sewing break'.. Maybe 2 days hehe.
Some things I learned during the process that may help you in the future:
> If there are techniques in the sewing instructions that you haven't practiced before it's a good time to make a toile/muslin! This has prevented a lot errors for me.
> Don't forget to stay stitch armholes too. My armhole facings didn't fit in the armholes anymore.
> Don't use cheap (polyester) bias binding because it can be rough on your skin. You better cut strips from a lightweight fabric yourself for Hong Kong binding. Also check how the fabric feels against your skin (mine is quite itchy).
If you have questions about the pattern or techniques feel free to send me a message.
Very itchy fabric, but oh well…

Sep 29, 2013, 08.47 AMby cris orange
very nice dress and it fits you perfect. I also like the Hong Kong finish, good work! I always make a muslin first, when sewing a new pattern. This way I avoid ripping the fashion fabric, which is more time-consuming than the muslin.

Child safety program fills Nashua gym
NASHUA - Hundreds of families packed Nashua High South on Saturday for Family Fun Day, an annual festival of games, activities and demonstrations hosted by Lil' Iguana Children's Safety Foundation.
Parents and children roamed the gym, filled on one side with bounce houses, hula-hoops and colorful characters and on the other with booths where treats were doled out and face-painting, hair-glittering and balloon-twisting services were available.
Family Fun Day is one of Lil' Iguana's most popular events, meant to reach out to local families with the organization's message of child safety, health and fitness.
"I think it's fantastic that Nashua has something like this," said Hudson resident Victor Oates as his son, Lucus, 2, joined a line of Zumba dancers.
Lil' Iguana was launched 19 years ago by Nashua resident Jim Tomaszewski, who found himself having to answer some tough questions from his son, then 5, about Jeffery Curley, a 10-year-old Cambridge boy who was kidnapped, sexually abused and murdered.
Tomaszewski's wife, Laurie, said that was a "tipping point" for her husband, who realized he had to teach his son and small daughters how to be safe.
"It's a non-threatening, music-based program," said Laurie Tomaszewski who was volunteering at Family fun Day with her two daughters, Erica and Eden, who are now adults. "We have a musical stage show that goes into schools and kids act as mentors for their peers."

128GB iPad ULTIMATE on the Way? And, What's an ULTIMATE iPad?!?
The first new Apple rumors of the week come from 9to5Mac this morning, who is reporting that we're close to seeing a new model of the 4th Generation iPad Retinas that went on sale back in the fall -- now with a 128GB memory option.
The site reports that "Pricing is unknown, but the new model is described as a "premium SKU" (stock keeping unity) that would join the current lineup of 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB iPads. A source at a large U.S. retailer provided 9to5Mac with what is purportedly a new SKU listing for iPads that includes a fourth model labeled as "Ultimate" to join its current lineup"
Furthering along the rumor is developer reports that found in the code of the upcoming iOS 6.1 Beta that was released last week includes references to supporting 128 gig devices.
Apple of course has no comment, and theoretical timelines are unknown, so stay tuned!

New Tesco Store Modelled on Orwell's "Airstrip 1″
Tesco is not a supermarket, it's a superracket. The store near Watford's town centre has just been refurbished. According to Tesco, this is to provide its 'loyal' customers with, as Tesco describes it, a "food first" shopping experience, but in reality it is just to provide some competition to a new Waitrose store due to open almost across the street.Signs all over the store make a big play on the words 'your store', as though they are doing something purely for the benefit of the customers. In reality, it is just Tesco doublespeak. It is clear that the gigantic organisation follows the Orwellian 'Airstrip 1' philosophy when it comes to dealing with its loyal customers, i.e., tell them the same thing enough times and they'll start to believe it.
I've shopped in the new store on one occasion, and I will not be returning. Admittedly, the new store is an improvement on the old one in the respect that the foul smell from the drains near the butchery and fishmongery departments has gone, but this has been replaced by a malodorous atmosphere caused by the legions of management goons strutting around the place keeping the troops in order. By troops, I mean both the shoppers and the Tesco staff. Gone are the morose faces of all the checkout staff. Gone are the insouciant shelf stackers who could not care if you found what you were looking for or not. Gone are the serving staff who always had something else better to do than serve. The same people are still there, but now they have been subjected to a 'Room 101' re-education that has resulted in a force of 'automatons' trained to smile while retaining the same glassy eyed look of indifference. Woe betide any of them caught without a smile, I dread to think of the consequences, probably tortured like Winston Smith with the rats that were running around in the stinking sewers.
Of course, not everyone of the staff has been brainwashed, not in Room 101 anyway. The management goons are the equivalent of Orwell's 'Inner Party'. They are the upper echelons, the ones whose job it is to keep the Winston Smiths in line. I watched them marching around the store in groups of at two and three, all trying to outdo each other in their worship of 'Big-Brother'. Stern, unsmiling, caring only that the system works. It has to work, even if the customers don't like it, it has to work. It will work, and here I veer off into Animal Farm by using poor old Boxer's mantra,"I must work harder, I must work harder", it will work, it will work. It all seems so obvious and familiar.
I plucked up the courage to approach one of these goons when I could find nowhere in the massive new bakery department to get my 'fresh that day—store baked' loaf of bread sliced. The goon broke off from lecturing one of his unfortunate shelf-stackers to glare at me with a look that would turn bread stale, "We don't slice bread in store anymore—it's not our policy!' Not our policy…to slice bread, in a bakery department! I would dearly love to have been a fly on the wall in the committee room where that was decided.
The new CEO of Tesco has been slinging some mud at his ultra successful predecessor, Sir Terry Leahy, for not concentrating on the Tesco core business. He is supposed to be putting into place a set of measures to make Tesco do what it has done for years until Leahy departed, and that is to trash the opposition. Well, they used to do that by outdoing the others, by selling cheap, by giving the customer what he wanted. That is obviously not 'core' anymore. Well, in my opinion, he had better do a bit of a rethink, because Tesco are never going to return to their previous dominance by copying niche supermarkets like Waitrose. However, if that's what they want to do, good luck to them. I know where I'll be doing my shopping, and it does not begin with a T.

The Old Ways – Penguin's 'Wayfarer' Competition
Entrants to the competition, called 'The Penguin Wayfarer', are required to submit a two minute film highlighting their favourite walks. I decided to enter, using my 'River Don Project' as material, and lo and behold, I have made it onto the long-list of twenty 'best' films. These twenty are now subject to online voting, and the ten most popular will be shortlisted for selection by Robert Macfarlane, the author of last year's bestselling book on walking 'The Old Ways'.
The winner will receive the wonderful prize of being paid to walk around England, writing, filming, and blogging about the various journeys. The winner also receives several thousand pounds worth of camping equipment, cameras, etc., with which to complete the assignment.
My film can be viewed at http://www.ajourneyonfoot.com.
I'm currently in eighth place, and would benefit from a little help to hopefully boost my personal ballot. THAT, my dear friends, is what I'm asking, most respectfully, from you. Would you please take a couple of minutes to click on the link and give me your vote? Voting ends at midnight on 24th June.
I would be most grateful for any help (and votes), and if I win, I'll be blogging with a first hand account of my 'Wayfarer' exploits as I experience them.
The Plot Thickens!
And so the plot thickens! Now I find that it was the Romans who created the Don's duality when they cut the Tunbridge Dyke from Thorne to join the Don to the River Aire. Until that time, it seems, the Don had veered eastwards at Thorne to join the Trent. This is confusing the hell out of me, as my Roman map of Britain shows only the route from Thorne to the River Aire. Maybe, by that time the route to the Trent had silted up, but why does it appear on later maps?
To who(m) do I ask the question…what is the definitive, original route of the River Don north-east of Doncaster?
The River Don – Clear As Mud!
So, the latest information gleaned from the (excellent) UEA library is that, similar to its vague source, the lower River Don originally did not have a direct confluence with the Yorkshire Ouse. The Don still springs out of the peat in several places on Grains Moss above Sheffield. However, what I had not realised was that, prior to Cornelius Vermuyden's disastrous diverting of the river during the late 17th century, the Don split naturally at Hatfield Chase into two separate streams. One stream flowed into the River Aire, and the other into the Trent.
It seems then, that the Don has always been an ambiguous river, even well before human intervention. It remains even now nigh on impossible to determine exactly where it rises, and having flowed its seventy mile course, originally just meandered almost aimlessly into its ultimate objective of the North Sea.
I like the thought of the river having a character similar to most South Yorkshire folk. Or should I say, of course, the opposite, that the river is the pre-determinate influence. Sheffielders, particularly, maintain a strangely insouciant attitude regarding their origins, likewise with where they're going to. But in the melange of river and city, in that seven or so miles of intimacy, the Don, fortunately, is loved. Neither above Sheffield, or downstream of it, is the river regarded with such affection. 'In't Don' remains the colloquial means of explaining the disappearance of any valued possession. 'It's probably in't Don', where everything ends up, one way or another.
The uniquely murky Don, unlike many other similarly polluted water-flows throughout the industrial north, never becomes a torpid stream. It maintains an energetic flow from end to end, despite Vermuyden's attempt to control it. In fact it is reasonably safe to say, that it is doubtful even in its current, relative unpollutedness, that anyone ever swims in the Don. Some may wade into it in its upper reaches, and others may travel upon it further downstream, but few ever swim in it. It is just too dangerous.
The river's murky brown colour is explained in its name, Don, originally 'Dun'. Dun, the ancient English word for brown, has always been the colour of the river, from its source to its end. The several tiny streams that ultimately converge to form the river high on the peat bog of Grains Moss, are all the same deep brown of the peat itself. Even the damming of the river to form the huge Winscar reservoir has failed to remove the peat colour from the water. The brown hue remains strikingly evident below Winscar, and in ancient times it is probable that the river was brown throughout its entire course. In fact, the river was known even in Roman times as the Dun.
The River Don At Goole, a.k.a. Dutch River
In preparation for my whole river odyssey, I have begun my survey of the of the River Don (a.k.a. Vermuyden's Channel, or the Dutch River) at Goole in East Yorkshire. The Dutch River is a deeply unsettling, insidious course of water. It resembles a canal in its straightness, but the flow of water is totally unlike a canal in its tidal forcefulness. So much so, that one gets an instinctive feeling to stay well away from it. Fortunately, it is very difficult to approach the river, as it is well protected from human trespass. In fact, the tidal flow is also unfavourable to shipping. So, despite it being navigable for even sizeable vessels, few use it, preferring the River Aire navigation as an alternative, less risky route inland to South Yorkshire.
However, after a little exploration, I found an area alongside the Vermuyden Hotel, in Old Goole, where access to the river was possible. Against my better judgement, I made my way through the chest high vegetation towards the water, keeping in mind the warning of the manageress of the hotel, who told me to be very careful of the treacherous silt that builds up on both banks. Despite her warning, I almost lost my balance as I neared the edge of the river bank when my leg disappeared into a hidden hollow, almost pitching me over the bank side.
My heart was racing, and I halted there and then, deciding to take my photographs and a short film of the swirling brown torrent from a safe distance. As soon as I had what I wanted, I got out of there and made my way back to the hotel, where the manageress showing obvious relief at my safe return, told me that she had planned to phone the emergency services if I had not returned after an hour. That revelation did nothing to ease my already fragile nerves.
As I drove back to Sheffield I pondered on the experience. I realised that, for the first time in years, I had been properly frightened by that malignant flow of water. The River Don flows energetically along its whole course, but Vermuyden's channel is an unnatural adulteration of what is, despite its swift flow, a relatively benign river. Vermuyden transformed it into a chilling and lethal flow of water, which is now additionally hazardous through being polluted to the extent that it seems devoid of any biological life. I likened the feeling of edging close to it as being similar to edging towards the precipice of hundred foot cliff. All right, as long as you maintain a distance, but getting too close and falling over means certain death. I know that had I lost my footing and fallen into Vermuyden's channel, I would not be writing this account.
A surprising revelation was from the manageress of the Vermuyden Hotel, who despite living within sight of the Dutch River all her life, had no idea that it was the really the River Don.
Today Is Mrs Thatcher's Funeral!
So, today's the day then, and all will be revealed. We will see if the overwhelming police presence (which is already deployed on the streets of London as I write) is enough to cow any protesters. It probably will, as the police have had lots of practice in recent years in suppressing any form of protest that doesn't fit with the requirements of the establishment. Don't misunderstand me, I'm not yearning for a violent demonstration, but there would be no harm in allowing protesters to voice their opinion within reasonable proximity to the coffin as it passes. As it is, protest may be allowed, but well out of sight and earshot of the media.
One final thought. Mrs Thatcher will be cremated later today. Its fortunate that crematoria run on gas and not coal!
Thatcher's Funeral – An Impending Disaster!
That's it! The period of respect has gone on long enough. Does the government realise what a mistake it is making in deciding to proceed with Thatcher's state funeral? Though it's supposedly not a real state funeral, it is in everything but name. It shows that the Conservatives are completely out of touch with what millions of ordinary folk think. The use of tax money to pay for the ceremony is a massive slap in the face, and William Hague's justification for it was…well. Let's just say that I bet he's been nowhere near his birthplace (South Yorkshire) for quite a while, and I doubt he'd dare go back there now!
As I wrote in my previous post (22 December, 2012), there will undoubtedly be demonstrations during the funeral procession. Hundreds of police will suppress it, and there will be cracked heads and many arrests. The upshot will be Cameron, Hague, et al, pontificating about the disgrace that the televised scenes have brought upon the country. They know that this will happen, yet they're still going ahead with it. Even the Queen has been brought to bear to add some legitimacy. She's only ever previously attended the funeral of one other prime minister, Churchill. She didn't even attend Clement Attlee's funeral. What message does that put across?
This is going to be a disaster, I can see it, and I'm glad I'll be well clear of London on the day.
