Disclosure Laws Empower the Bullies
The ouster of Brendan Eich from Mozilla illustrates the dark side of disclosure laws, notes Hans von Spakovsky:
As the Heritage Foundation previously pointed out, other supporters of Proposition 8 in California have been subjected to harassment, intimidation, vandalism, racial scapegoating, blacklisting, loss of employment, economic hardships, angry protests, violence, death threats, and anti-religious bigotry. All committed by individuals claiming they are simply trying to gain "acceptance" and who complain about the supposed intolerance of society over their lifestyle.
What has been happening in recent years is no different then what racist government officials in Alabama were trying to do in the late 1950s when they subpoenaed the NAACP's membership lists. Fortunately, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against the state in NAACP v. Alabama (1958), holding that the state's actions violated the Fourteenth Amendment and interfered with the free associational rights of the NAACP's members.
While campaign finance reformers are constantly touting the benefits of the disclosure of political contributions as a means of preventing corruption, they fail to explain how that objective is served by requiring disclosure of donations in referendum campaigns. There is some logic in disclosure of contributions to candidates who then have the ability to initiate, support, or pass legislation that may benefit contributors if they are elected. But no such logic attaches to donations against or in support of ballot propositions that are approved by all of the registered voters of a state. There is no candidate or potential legislator who can somehow be "corruptly" influenced through contributions.
Moreover, the ability and right to engage in anonymous political speech and activity – and making contributions is a form of political speech – used to be considered common sense. The Federalist Papers were published under pseudonyms and one of the most famous and stirring pieces of writing in American history – Thomas Paine's Common Sense – was first published anonymously because of the danger to its author for publishing such revolutionary ideas. The same threats those authors and others throughout our history have faced for expressing ideas not in conformity with the ruling passions of the day are today being faced by Americans like Brendan Eich.

Even though the last few weeks have been wetter, parts of Southeast Texas and the Houston area still fall into the "abnormally dry" category on the latest U.S. Drought Monitor map. Mark Svoboda helps put together the map.
"The short-term improvement, we have to keep it and couch it in the context of the longer-term dryness, which is still very much there if you just go back a few months, certainly back into last fall and over the last year, those deficits, even in the Houston, Beaumont area, are still pretty significant."
He says the recent heavy rains here help keep plants alive in the short term, but the long-term water deficits are what we should worry about.
"When you look at the overall water supply and what's getting into the soil moisture, when you have a deficit that keeps accumulating over the longer period, that's still a little bit of a concern, just from a long-term drought prospective. In the short-term, it's great for greening-up ards and things like that. We just need to keep an eye on it as Houston seems to be right on the very eastern edge of this drought."
Large parts of South Texas are still in extreme drought. Svoboda says it's hard to predict what kind of summer we'll have, but he says we should be better off than we were a couple of years ago.


text: "Sparkle fell into my lap. I had heard a little bit about it, that it was being redone in early 2011. I was just kind of like, 'Oh, that would be really cool,' and not really thinking too much about it, and then it came through my agency," Sparks told Rolling Stone. "I read it, I fell in love with the script and I went in to audition."

Video conferencing software is a highly useful tool to conduct meetings, but there are some considerations one should take into account that they needn't in normal, in-person meetings. Most people are well-versed in how to dress professionally for the office, but a number of factors make the online experience better for some styles than others.
Read on for tips on how to make sure you look your best when the video conference starts.
The perspective
Most people will only be seeing you from, at most, the lower part of your chest upwards, so this is what area you need to focus on the most - you would probably be able to get away with wearing gym shorts, for instance, but that doesn't mean you should try it. The low resolution, low lighting lenses on laptops, iPads and other devices used for conferencing often makes certain methods of dress more optimal than others for online meetings, according to Corporate Fashionista.
The neckline
The neckline is the area that will gain the most attention, the source said, so it needs to give an appearance of competence and authority. For women, the likely two best ways to go ar?e with a v-neck mandarin collar or a round neckline. A mandarin collar will frame the face gently, not having too much fabric and keeping the focus upwards. A round neckline, meanwhile, would also be sure to keep fabric in the shot at all times, framing your face.
What to avoid
Sleeveless outfits can be suboptimal, according to the source. With your face showing a great deal of skin, tops that will have an additional bit near the center of the picture will not offer enough contrast to allow focus upward onto your face. In the same vein, a color that is not too bright to distract, but still light enough to naturally illuminate your face and offer a contrast in the low light camera frame is generally the best choice. Loud or busy prints, too, are probably to be avoided during remote meetings - they will be too busy for the frame.
Accessories such as dangling earrings and loud necklaces can often be a distraction as well, according to The Jane Dough. Simple accessories are fine, but anything that moves a great deal or sparkles will be taking the attention away from where you want it - on you.

2012 Hotel Trends
Lobbies for Lingering, Affordable Luxury,
The Eventi Suite at Eventi in New York City
Hotel and Hospitality Trends for 2012
Hotels are ever-evolving creatures. The industry is testing what the oft-finicky tourism consumer likes and dislikes and, as a result gives and takes, reinvents and abandons. This is a good thing. Hotel innovation often means it's better for the environment, better for business and better for paying customers. In the end, everyone wins. Here are some hotel trends to sleep on.
Hang Out Lobbies
Lobbies are no longer just for checking in or asking the concierge for a recommendation. That is, if you're staying one of the four Ace Hotels (in Portland, Seattle, Palm Springs, New York City) or the Public in Chicago. These hotels have redefined the hotel lobby recently, making it living-room comfortable for the laptop crowd to surf the free Wi-Fi. An in-lobby bar provides refreshments, and there's often even live musical entertainment for the guests and locals who make these hotel lobbies a regular spot. More hotels are opening up the bar, plying their guests with wine or Champagne to ease the pain of checking in.
Luxuriously Casual
Once upon a time there were two types of hotels: luxury and affordable (read: not very comfortable). But recently a new kid on the block has moved in. The luxury-seeming property, loaded with amenities and perks, flowing with friendly service, but easier on the wallet than the upper crust of hotel chains. Hotels like Andaz, Ace, and Eventi are helping to invent a new class of hotels, ones with free Wi-Fi and an extra dose of good service that will make you think you should be paying top dollar.
Suite Signatures
What makes a suite even sweeter? When it's a signature suite. We've recently seen hotels on both sides of the Atlantic create accommodations dedicated to automobiles. The Jaguar Suite at London's 51 Buckingham Gate, Taj Suites and Residences features slick wood paneling, leather and even a pollution-free fireplace that mimics the back window lines of a Jaguar. The design and decor of the Bentley Suite at the St. Regis New York reflect the British car company's unique aesthetic and heritage. Both of these perk-loaded living spaces — in-suite Champagne bar or personal butler, anyone? — also offer the use of the theme car to well-heeled guests. Celebrities have also put their signature on hotel rooms: the Hotel Triton in San Francisco runs the gamut from their Jerry Garcia Suite to their Kathy Griffin Suite, which is anything but a D-list room.
Free Wi-Fi!
What comes standard in a room has certainly changed through the years. In fact, there once was a time when hotels charged for hot water. In a survey of hotel pet peeves, travel blog Gadling.com found that having to pay for Wi-Fi was the biggest complaint, beating out early housekeeping visits, no free breakfast, bad front desk service and even one-ply toilet paper. Free hotel Internet access is becoming more and more the norm. A number of affordable and mid-priced hotels are leading the way, leaving mostly luxury hotels in the lurch as Wi-Fi chargers (sorry business travelers with an expense account) which are sometimes bundled into resort fees. The days of paying $25 for Internet access are waning.
Fill 'er up, Please
The days of filling up your bathroom kit with little bottles of shampoo and conditioner right before checking out may soon be numbered. Aloft hotels, the Los Angeles SLS hotel and Robert DeNiro's Greenwich Hotel are using refillable shampoo, conditioner and liquid soap containers in guest room showers. A slew of hotels (including Acqua Hotel in Marin and the Maxwell Hotel in Seattle) have installed gallon-sized Tommy Bahama dispensers in showers. This green practice allows hotels to re-fill the shower soap and shampoo dispensers when they're running low instead of wasting lots of plastic containers. Which means everyone wins. Well, everyone except for tiny shampoo bottle collectors. But you can still take home the mints from the pillow!

Gulfstream Today: 3.10.2013
Gulfstream Today: 3.10.2013
Lead: Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott's arsenal of 3-year-old filly talent continued to get deeper Sunday at Gulfstream Park as Juddmonte Farm's Close Hatches passed her first distance test with flying colors drawing off to 1 ¼ length victory over Catalyst Stable and partners' Kimberly Jean in the third race 'a other than' allowance test at 1 1/16 miles under jockey Joel Rosario.
A Kentucky-bred daughter of Juddmonte stallion First Defence, Close Hatches was very impressive winning her career debut here at seven furlongs on Jan. 26 by seven lengths under Rosario and now joins Juddmonte's Emollient, Donald Dizney's Calistoga and West Point Thoroughbreds and Tom Keithley's Flashy Gray as impressive allowance race winners at Gulfstream this season.
"They're all nominated for the (Kentucky) Oaks," said Mott, who will be happy to deal with the challenge of choosing a path to the coveted $1 million race at Churchill Downs on Friday, May 3. "There are good races for them about every two weeks and we'll see which ones up for which races as they come along. It is a good position to be in."
The $300,000 Gulfstream Park Oaks (G2) at 1 1/8 miles will be run on Florida Derby Day here on Saturday, March 30 and will likely be a target for at least one of the Mott team.
Close Hatches paid $3.80 for $2 as the odds-on favorite in the field of six 3-year-old fillies. Ghostzapper Racing Limited Partnership's Montana Native finished another 1 ½ lengths back in third behind the runner-up, Kimberly Jean. Close Hatches was timed the 1 1/16 miles in 1:43:57 over the 'fast' track.
Emollient is the most experienced of the Mott-trained fillies with four starts. Following a second-place debut at Saratoga last summer she broke her maiden at Belmont Park by 2 ¾ lengths in late September and finished second as the odds-on choice after stumbling at the break in the Demoiselle Stakes (G2) at Aqueduct in late November.
A daughter of Juddmonte's 2003 Florida Derby (G1) and Belmont Stakes (G1) winner Empire Maker, Emollient won a 1 1/16 miles allowance here on Feb. 16 over a 'sloppy' track as the 1-to-2 favorite. Flashy Gray finished second in Saturday's $150,000 Honeybee Stakes (G3) at Oaklawn Park while Calistoga has won both of her career starts at this meet by big margins.
Another Win For Cross Traffic: Gold Mark Farm's Cross Traffic remained unbeaten in his second lifetime start with a 7 1/2 length victory in Sunday's eighth race, a $54,500 allowance optional claimer. A 4-year-old son of Unbridled's Song, Cross Traffic won his racing debut Jan. 24 by 1 3/4 lengths at 6 1/2 furlongs. Trained by Todd Pletcher, Cross Traffic covered a mile under jockey John Velazquez in 1:35.17. Stablemate Discreet Dancer won Saturday's Gulfstream Park Handicap in the same time.
Who's Hot: Jockey Elvis Trujillo rode two winners on the card aboard Freedom Child ($7.40) in the fourth and Grand Jetsetter ($9.20) in the ninth. Joel Rosario also won a pair with Close Hatches ($3.80) in the third and Brickyard Kitten ($5.60) in 11th race nightcap.

PHILADELPHIA - Acting United States Attorney Laurie Magid today announced the filing of an Indictment1 against Habeeb Malik, Ira Weiner, and Thongchai Vorasingha, charging that the three engaged in a conspiracy to make false statements in applications to become United States citizens. The defendants are also charged with fraud in connection with the applications. Defendant Malik is additionally charged with filing false tax returns that failed to report tens of thousands of dollars in taxable income.
Defendant Malik owned The Foundation of Human Services in Broomall, Pennsylvania, which purported to assist foreign individuals in becoming naturalized United States citizens. Defendants Weiner and Vorasingha are medical doctors. According to the indictment, defendant Malik would refer clients to defendants Weiner and Vorasingha who would "examine" the clients and then complete INS waiver form N-648, falsely stating that the applicants suffered from various permanent maladies that impaired their ability to learn English. The alleged maladies included learning disorders, depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder resulting from the hostilities overseas, and/or mental retardation. The applicants, in fact, did not suffer from any of these ailments and were not eligible for the waiver. Defendant Malik charged his clients $2,000 for this service and paid defendants Weiner and Vorasingha $120 for the "examinations."
"The defendants are charged with engaging in a long-term and sophisticated scheme to use their skills as doctors and businessmen to circumvent our immigration laws," Magid said. "These laws are in place to protect all Americans and are designed to insure that only those eligible to become citizens do so. The defendants repeatedly violated these laws to line their own pockets."
"This case is an outstanding example of two Department of Homeland Security branches working together to uncover a conspiracy created solely to help people circumvent the immigration process," said John P. Kelleghan, special agent in charge of the ICE office of investigations in Philadelphia. "With our partners in U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and the U.S. Attorney's Office, ICE will continue to aggressively investigate immigration fraud to shut down vulnerabilities that pose a threat to our national security."
"I'm proud of our immigration officers in Newark and Philadelphia," said Karen FitzGerald, director of the USCIS Philadelphia district. "By detecting this fraud, they helped stop this attempt to circumvent the path to legal immigration."
|Habeeb Malik
|Broomall, PA
|Ira Weiner
|Narberth, PA
|Thongchai Vorasingha
|Wallingford, PA
If convicted of all charges, defendants Weiner and Vorasingha face an approximate guideline sentencing range of up to three years in prison. Defendant Malik faces an approximate guideline sentencing range of up to four years in prison.
The case was investigated by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Internal Revenue Service, and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS). It is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Michael Bresnick.

Opening Weekend Drinking Game: The 2011 Edition
After a gut-punching offseason, week one is upon us. To celebrate such a joyous occasion there's a good chance many of you are going to embrace this long weekend of live pigskin over a cocktail or two, or three, or four, or…
While many of you will take your talents to the tailgate scene, others (raises hand) will bring the tailgate to their favorite sofa. To aid those of you that will be looking for some active participation during week one's Thursday to Monday marathon session, we've got the perfect indoor tailgating companion. A viewing guide if you will, to give you some active participation options if it's so desired.
Behold… Your 2011 Opening Weekend Drinking Game
Take One Drink each time the words "Expansion" or "Sanctions" are mentioned. I'm sorry. #Hammered
Take One Drink for all touchdowns. It's the first week, it's a celebration. If you have a wager on these games and the opposing team scores, double that drink intake and please don't smash your TV or laptop. It's a loooooong season…
Take One Drink when the mascot is shown. If this mascot happens to be a live animal, up that drink intake to five. If this mascot happens to be getting arrested like the Cincinnati Bearcat of 2010, go ahead and polish off the fridge of freezer.
Take One Drink for all footage of fans tailgating outside the stadium. Up close grill require double. Shots of shirtless d-bag trying to get themselves on screen require triple-sips and a few minutes of belittlement.
Take One Drink for all cheerleader shots. Sure, why not.
Take One Drink each time Craig James is shown on television. By rule, you're not actually allowed to enjoy this particular drink. In fact, this is the WORST kind of drink which goes well with groans, sighs and the occasional #firecraigjames.
Take Three Drinks if a coach has a tantrum that is caught on camera. Red faces equipped with an over-the-top scowl certainly apply. If a coach throws his headset, double the drinks. Out of respect for Bo Pelini's face magic, you might as well take three early on and store them for the first drive.
Take Three Drinks for all strip sacks. If the player who caused such havoc recovers the football, finish your drink. This trifecta of defensive excellence needs to be celebrated accordingly.
Take Three Drinks every time "Legends" or "Leaders" is mentioned on the broadcast. If you're a Big Ten fan, these drinks should be accompanied with either tears or an impressive string of curses.
Take Three Drinks for all references to Texas A&M. Keep in mind that these three drinks pale in comparison to the drinking Dan Beebe will likely be doing.
Take Three Drinks when a bubble screen is thrown. Just because Jon Gruden hates college football's most exciting lateral pass, that doesn't mean it shouldn't be embraced with a hefty chug.
Take Five Drinks for all gambling innuendo mentioned on air. We know many of you immediately will turn your mind to our good friend Brent Musburger who isn't afraid to bring point spreads, overs, unders and outstanding awkwardness to the booth. But it's not just him. Okay, it's basically just him. DRINK.
Take Five Drinks if a draw play is called on 3rd and long. In the unique instance where this ground and pound submission picks up the 1st down, make it an even ten and take back all those awful things you said about the play call before the running back got the 1st.
Take Five Drinks if your team o' choice fails on a 4th down conversion or misses a field goal. If your kicker misses an extra point (which includes blocks), finish your drink and talk about what a great kicker YOU could've been.
Take Ten Drinks for every Arm Punt that is thrown. For those unfamiliar with the term, head over to YouTube and type in "Jacory Harris" and you should be well equipped to participate.
Take Ten Drinks for all Longhorn Network commercials. If these commercials include our friend Matthew Mcconaughey, double it and then recite your favorite Dazed and Confused line.
Finish Your Drink if a Fat Guy, aka offensive or defensive lineman, scores a touchdown. Then high-five everyone in the room and talk about it for the next hour or so because Fat Guy Touchdowns are that incredible.
Finish Your Drink if and when a touchdown is called back for excessive celebration. This awful rule will come in play, and you know it's just a matter of time. When it finally does happen, we should all embrace just how awful it is by sharing a community chug through our Televisions.
And if college football drinking games aren't your fancy, then enjoying a cold one for 30 over a long weekend while watching the return of the best game on the planet isn't a bad idea. Yea, that'll work just fine.
Suggestions, as always, are certainly welcome.

I don't think you will be successful cleaning the insulation off clothes. I spilled some on my floor and it took a lot of rubbing with an adhesive cleaner to clean the floor. I would toss the clothes and chalk it up to experience.

The Topo Designs daypack is big enough to carry a day's worth of stuff, but its slim profile means you won't look ridiculous. A built-in sleeve keeps your laptop safe, and one of the pockets fits an iPad mini perfectly. I've been using this as my main backpack for a few months, and love it.
Buy: Topo Designs, $139. But you should add $12 for the optional sternum/chest strap — it'll keep your pack centered and more comfortable.

Three years ago, Bo Burnham was just another high-schooler recording YouTube videos for fun. Today, Burnham has burst on the comedy scene with a full-length LP, a Comedy Central special, and a deal to write a film for Judd Apatow. Entertainment Weekly recently named Burnham one of the 12 Rising Stars of Comedy. In March, Burnham released his first full length LP, Bo Burnham, which topped Billboard's New Artist chart and was no. 2 on Billboard's Comedy chart in its first week.

CUMBERLAND — When the Cumberland Major Division All-Stars arrive at the Bart Giamatti Complex in Bristol, Conn. sometime later this morning, they're going to have the perfect guide to direct them around the facilities in Jocelyn Bodington.
That's because the 12-year-old standout is the only member of last season's ballclub – coaches included – that participated in the Eastern Regionals and was two victories away from capturing the regional championship and earning its way into the Little League World Series.
With a single serving size weighing in at a hefty 330 calories, there's a good chance some of the thousands of Rhode Islanders who stopped by Kennedy Plaza Wednesday to receive a complimentary cake from Cake Boss Buddy Valastro will be feeling some remorse today and working a little extra to burn off the calories.
Or if you're Dennis Hoag of Central Falls you're planning to have a slice for breakfast and maybe another for lunch.
"Not bad," Hoag says as he licked a dab of frosting from his finger under a shade tree in nearby Burnside Park.

There's one bank I regularly visit, which have their values emblazoned over their reception. These values are:
- Respect
- Integrity
- Service
- Excellence
- Stewardship
... or RISES for short.
It's nice, but I always have this cynical little buddy on my shoulder, shouting in my ear: "do you think they mean it?"
The problem with the things like corporate values and mission statements is that they're often a little bit wishy-washy. As pointed out to me regularly, look at any bank's mission statement and they all sound the same.

Dave's Take on "Utopia"
This is another of BWs gems in very important basics if you want to understand the trajectory of political semantics for a long time to come.
Millennial promises are a required form of political semantics for nonwhites. It sustains them and it is all they require. If you don't believe that, look at Cuba for crying out loud.
And we have a future that continues to be mired in racial conflict. That is certain.
And because the semantic domain of political rhetoric must be millennial in character, as it must evoke anthem style emotions, the defining characteristic of white political rhetoric is becoming its very absence.
This is what nobody sees: WE HAVE EVOLVED. Accordingly, whites will not have any political semantics of their own whatsoever.
This is already endlessly puzzling and confounding nonwhites. They are unable to come to terms with it.
In fact, it is a defining characteristic of the current political cycle. And the least interested segment of the population is the white segment, which is logical once you understand why.
Simmons just said it in his comment on "Finishing the sentences of liberals". Once you quit finishing those sentences, you have won the game. It's called "being effective".
That is our future.
And make no mistake it will be a future of heavy conflict. There will be no "perfection" there at all
You might enjoy a good laugh from this website Bob, it's sketches of utopian futures from the past. Every single one of them is wrong by leaps and bounds.
It goes well with your points on futurologists too.
Whites have the only society that does not aim for Perfection. That is so basic it's hard to explain.
Oriental philosophy always aims for a final perfect society. They went straight from that to Marxism, which is the same thing. A planned economy is part of a planned society which in turn assumes that all the Intellectuals have to do is to tell us what Perfection is and plan for it.
Like children, Wordists spend all their time bitching about inequalities of income and so forth which make us less than perfect. They tell us THEY have the Solutions to "problems." But our society is unique precisely because we do not just solve problems our Prophets of Wisdom see. The greatest things we have today came as total surprises. The fact that we were too hot in the summer was not seen as a PROBLEM. No Intellectual saw air conditioning as a solution to a problem.
All the societies that considered hunger a PROBLEM failed to foresee the solution to it in unimaginable advances in food productivity. They saw it in terms of a static, planned population and a static utopian society. Like children, they saw only what was in front of them.
Only whites show any sign of being at home in reality. We expect endless change, and we try to make things BETTER. BETTER, unlike Utopia, has no limits. But it also means no one can PLAN for Perfection. So I go for the best genes in order for white future generations to make things BETTER.
My concept of the future is what WORKS, not some IDEAL. I cannot see any end to what my approach will do. Right now Wordists are destroying everything that is good for their particular Utopias. To me those Utopias are stagnant ant colonies like the much-worshipped Ancient Egypt or the equally defunct USSR.
All I offer is white people with better genes. The glory of it is the opposite of Utopian. I have no idea what the society whites with better genes will produce will look like. If I did, I would be a Wordist offering Utopia.
In other words, I would be childish and should not be trying to Porch Talk.
I do not know what the society whites with better genes would build would will be like. I do know I would like to live in it: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is still the best maxim I can imagine.
Shari says we all want teh future to be both our genotypes AND our descendants. That is true, but we can't always have what we want. But Shari is taking the steps that ensures she CAN have both. She has children and is fighting for our race.
Shari, the ultimate expression of having our own descendatns is the Chinese concept of ancestor worship. We do not want to degenerate into that. Ten generations from today, your genes will be about one in one thousand of those of your direct descendants. We are here influecning what the other 999 parts will be like.
I seem to detect an idea here that you and I are going to have posterity consisting entirely of US. Only an amoeba can do that. The genotype we fight for has more to do to with racial decisionsgenes than any Family Values. Those who obsess on Family Values are right now marynig their daughters to nice colored boys.
A good many semi-respectables have done yeoman work, even the AR types with their IQ fixations. But the real work is done by those who face the cultists and peel the cult back to its core. People like Putnam and those like him did great and interesting work, but they made the mistake of trying to finish the sentences of liberals. Hence they got lost in the cult, it would have been like standing outside of Jonestown with a sign that said "We too believe in peace" or some such nonsense.
— Simons
Excellent BASIC thinking. "Finishing liberals' sentences for them" is the best descriptionof respectable conservative I have ever read!
Our Posterity and My Examples
Al Parker says that I outline a future "and another possible future in India of people who, besides their shared Varna, will not even be our descendants."
A very useful basis for discussion.
I was wondering when someone was going to bring this specific example up: We need a Just-So Future in which OUR descendants are the white people. My aim is the most basic one in nature: the survival of my phenotype.
If this "Posterity" bit worked I wouldn't be necessary.
An Indian child with its non-Aryan genes erased will be as kin to me as a Russian. Russians are not my descendants. Culturally India is rapidly westernizing, but Japan is doing it faster. We have been trained to believe that culture is all that matters. A society with our books but not our GENES will be just fine.
I say the opposite. Everybody can be culturally western, Orientals can catch up. But only whites can advance the West itself.
Al Parker, would you really put a pure Aryan child of Indians who wanted pure Aryan children in the same immigration category with brown Indians? I would rather have them than any rot-minded anti-white Whitakers from England.
You should look for what I am giving examples OF.
The problem is that, instead of taking every example I give as the Inevitable Bleak Things to Come, which is what our entire excuse for education has taught us, you should look for what I am giving examples OF.
The hole card for anti-whites Inevitability has always been Asia. They insist that the world is mostly Boasian "minorities" and therefore wildly pro-integration. So I gave the example of the weakness of that idea in Asia. Now I am told everybody is going to be an Indian.
It is terribly important for you to separate what I am giving EXAMPLES OF from the usual hard and fast Politically Correct Inevitabilities. We are ready to ride waves in a new age while they are desperately trying to jam everything into a hopelessly outdated framework.
When attacking the white race, the mantra of our enemies is, "This too shall pass." But it never occurs to them that THEY, too will pass. And their cult will pass a lot faster than a race will disappear.
But I will not give you a Just-So FUTURE to replace THEIR Just-So Future.
POINT TWO refers to the fact that I am attacking the very Inevitables that our depressive defeatists find so overwhelming.
Their real weakness of our cult is that it has a rigid framework. EVERYTHING hits it as an unwelcome surprise. From the Internet to genetic engineering to settling the moon and space colonization to advances in ways to find out the actual truth in any area, everything militates against their rigid framework.
But only so long as WE are NOT in a rigid framework.
Bob's blog doesn't seem very inspiring to make people dedicate their lives to this cause.
Bob lays out a possible future of gated, prison-like communities for whites (when we once had nation-states) — and another possible future in India of people who, besides their shared varna, will not even be our descendants.
It not only fails to inspire someone who hasn't yet become 100% dedicated, it makes one want to forget everything he's learned here and find a nice hobby to take up. What's the point of working for something now if change will happen naturally 50 or 100 years from now?
But I understand this is a straight-talking, no-nonsense blog so you get an answer when you ask for one and I'm grateful for that.
— Al Parker
As you say, I am not a Marxist or an integrationist. I don't make up reality to look like our inevitable victory or to make you feel good.
As you indicate in your last grudging line, I do not tool my examples to make us seem like some Inevitable Flow of History. The essential media line today, as in all ages, is that what IS now leads to an INEVITABLE future.
THEIR future. I am saying all is in flux.
I'm a depressive myself, and if you choose to dwell on the example I gave to reach your depressive goal you will get there with or without me. Certainly that is what the current media want you to do with ALL present reality. I gave you an example I can see from my apartment window. A REAL one. A Marxist would have mad it more upbeat, but that is the kind of thinking BUGS does not engage in.
That is the sort of thinking you see on BBC documentaries. You get all but the last five minutes of interesting stuff. Then comes the last five minutes devoted tot he Politically Correct Summation. This tells how all that has been said fits into current Politically Correctness.
A dinosaurs documentary wind-up: See! look how long they lasted, but if we don't ratify Kyoto, we can disappear, too;
2) technological history, whoever they were talking about, including Aussie Abos, are incredibly advance despite our looking upon them as "primitive, showing that a truly assimilated society can use their genius as much as it can whites.
Everywhere here can give other examples.
Your comment is very useful. For example, I have to explain something in more detail: My optimism comes from my own experience. It was awful back then because nobody would believe that the white race was going anywhere. Now the Mantra is its own explanation. The Mantra would have made people laugh back in 1960 with the Baby Boom and national origin immigration quotas. That is the milieu in which the present immigration policy was made law in 1965.
You cannot change a world people see as frozen in s\aspic. I LIVED in a world like that.
I sound immodest, but the fact is that now I have the reality coming at us and only I know what it is like. All those people in Minnesota and Iceland to whom non-whites were whites with painted faces now have their faces jammed into their Colored Brothers' armpits. The security system you wail about is a symptom of this, not a guide to an Inevitable Future. A Norman Rockwell cover showing a brave little "Negro" girl being protected by troops is no longer all someone in Sweden likes to think of on race.
The second I give one example, you see a future of inevitable gated communities and such "Alas and Alack" crap. I see it as simply proving that there is no inevitable future. Thought Crime Laws always make it clear that the ruling group is lost. They cannot allow discussion beaus we real discussion today will NEVER lead in the direction of our Politically Correct Future as laid down in 1960.
Despite desperate efforts, the Boasian world, the world of no genetics, is DEAD. In order to preserve a rule based on Mankind Middle Eastern History, into which our present rule is hardwired, you have to suffocate all objection. That means it's doomed.
In 1960 all over the world a PREFERENCE for the survival of white people was called Nazism everywhere but in the some parts of the South. Even a SOUTH AFRICAN wrote that, with our ten percent black population, integration was a solution for US, but not for them.
Back then the argument was that you had to have a Nazi regime to do anything about genetics. Genetics will soon be a matter of preference, and it has happened far enough after Hitler that all those shrieks are now seen as part of a profit-making industry.
Now genetics will be a matter of PREFERENCE, and the whole world, not just the South, has had a good deep lungful of what mixed children look like and how their intelligence is not equal and is not the same. We have made huge progress in that direction from a time when Carleton Putnam argued in Race and Reason that IQ was different and was suppressed by all universities to today when everybody knows it is true. Now they have to keep anybody from SAYING it, which is the last ditch.
We are in a position to influence PREFERENCE, while the media and the fundamentalists are in a coalition to stop genetic research in its tracks.
Breaking down the "all races are the same" anti-Nazi Absolute was a hell of a job, but it has been done. That was the first push to get the car rolling. If you think we are marginalized now, you should have been with us back then.
But all I see is that we are going to have to be part of the formation of the future, instead of sitting around taking bets on some Inevitable. That leads to optimism or pessimism, but so do drugs.
As you have said before, and I won't mince words, all history is self serving bullshit. What we envision as history today is nothing more than a collection of accumulated facts from contemporary sources coupled with some sort of self-serving metaphysical poppycock that the current crop of house intellectuals wish to con the gullible with.
I read tons of so called "histories". Or maybe I should say "have read tons' of histories". In any event, what I have found is that in all cases the so-called "major events" have always been totally unexpected by their temporal contemporaries.
The "Historian" is like a Paleontologist,or a Jamaican Rastafarian. Or a Catholic Bishop.
To make an unexpected event the result of some cause that will give them power.

Hobbled Ranger lineman takes Big Country Player of the Week
Geovani Elizondo, OL/LB, Jr., Ranger -- How's this for tough?
Playing on a left knee which has completely torn anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments, Elizondo graded out with a 95-percent blocking success rate in Ranger's 45-22 loss to Perrin-Whitt on Friday. This included a whopping seven pancake blocks.
According to his doctors, Elizondo's knee is already damaged to the point where he can't make it any worse. As long as he can handle the pain, he is cleared to play. And believe me, he's experiencing plenty of pain.
An honorable mention all-state linebacker who had 116 tackles a year ago, Elizondo blew his knee out in a Sept. 5 loss to Albany, after which he missed four weeks.
He was fitted for a brace prior to his return against De Leon on Oct. 10, and has been playing in agony ever since.
"He's in a lot of pain when he plays, but he's stuck it out and has played in every game since he came back," Ranger coach Tooter Draper said. "On the offensive line, he's just demolishing people. He's got great form, but you can see him putting everything on that right leg."
Elizondo is also seeing some time at linebacker again, and even managed to record seven tackles (three solos) and recover a fumble last week. Not too shabby, considering he's virtually playing on one leg.
"The pain is pretty tough," Elizondo said. "But this is football, and you've got to play through pain if you want to play."
With Ranger's season concluding on Friday, Elizondo is expected to undergo a complete knee reconstruction next week, after which he will undergo four to five months of rehabilitation. He then plans to return and play in his senior season.
"It's been pretty difficult. It hit me pretty hard mentally, and I was down a lot," Elizondo said. "I thought the entire season was going down the drain for me.
"But the doctors said I could play. I'd just have to deal with the pain, and it would limit me a little bit."
A little bit?
This kid has a vastly different perspective on injury than I do.
Big country top 10
Jerrick Acosta, RB, Sr., Stamford -- Jerrick provided much of the spark needed to keep Stamford's playoff hopes alive in a 56-7 win over a winless Roby team.
Acosta had only 13 rushing attempts, but produced 242 yards and five scores, helping Stamford improve to 6-3 overall and 2-2 in District 11-A.
Jacob Villanueva, QB, Sr., Roscoe -- What would the Big Country Player of the Week column be without the presence of at least one Villanueva -- Jared, or Jacob?
Last week, Jacob completed 20 of 27 throws for 254 yards and two scores in a 51-0 win over Rotan. Three of his completions went to his twin brother, Jared, for 29 yards.
Jacob also rushed 10 times for 68 yards and a score to help improve the Plowboys to 8-1 overall and 4-0 in District 11-A.
Tyler Newberry, QB/DB, Sr., Merkel -- Mr. Consistency rushed 16 times for 107 yards and two scores in Merkel's 43-13 win over Anson on Friday, lifting the Badgers to a 6-3 overall record.
Newberry also hit 11 of 18 passes for 165 yards and a touchdown, and managed to collect four tackles and break up two passes in the Merkel secondary.
Jacob Gonzales, QB, Sr., Clyde -- Had what may be his most efficient passing game of the season in a 42-6 win over Hawley, hitting 14 of 21 throws for 226 yards and four touchdowns.
The win lifted the Bulldogs to 8-1 on the year, with their one loss coming to an outstanding 3A Sweetwater team on Sept. 19.
Though the rankings don't reflect it, this is a top-five 2A team. My AP vote this week put them at No. 4.
Monte Anderson, RB, Jr., Big Spring -- A month removed from an automobile accident which forced him to miss three games, Anderson rushed 16 times for 185 yards and a score in the Steers' 42-32 win over San Angelo Lake View.
The win was crucial for Big Spring, which would have been eliminated from the playoff race had it lost.
Chase Arrendale, RB/LB, Sr., Snyder -- Rushed 14 times for 127 yards and four scores in Snyder's 55-34 win over Breckenridge, lifting the Tigers to 5-3 overall and 2-2 in District 2-3A.
Arrendale, who also caught a pair of passes for 28 yards, scored three of his touchdowns in the fourth quarter, helping the Tigers to break the game open.
Matt Hall, RB, Jr., Hamlin -- With his team needing to beat Haskell by at least six points to have any chance of reaching postseason play, Hall took matters into his own hands in a 42-32 win on Friday.
Things looked bleak after Haskell cut the gap to 35-32 with just 30 seconds to play, but Hall hit to of three passes for 66 yards on the Pied Pipers final possession, setting up his 1-yard touchdown run with just 0:01 remaining.
Hall finished with 112 yards rushing and five scores to help the Pipers improve to 4-5 overall and 2-2 in District 11-A.
Seth Coolbaugh, WR, Sr., Early -- Hauled in 11 catches for 178 yards and two scores in Early's crucial 32-20 win over Coleman.
Coolbaugh's final score -- a 35-yard touchdown pass from Nick Lyle -- put the game away with just 0:20 left on the clock and kept Early's playoff hopes alive.
If Coleman defeats San Saba and Early defeats Dublin, a three-way tie would be forced with Comanche for the final playoff spot, after which things get complicated.
Robert Hare, RB, Sr., Albany -- The beast is back.
Hare, who has accumulated more than 1,500 yards rushing and 35 touchdowns on the year, ran all over Cross Plains in a 63-0 win. Gathering 166 yards and six touchdowns on just 13 carries, the 210-pounder helped the Lions improve to 9-0.
Audrey Johnston, OH/MB, Soph., Gorman Volleyball -- Was nothing short of devastating in Gorman's 25-9, 25-13, 25-15 sweep of Ranger, collecting 21 kills, four aces, 15 digs and three blocks.
Johnston has more than 300 kills on the season, helping the Lady Panthers to a 21-6 overall record.

Ooo Hustle and Smog are gorgeous!!
Urban Decay Naked Nail Polish Set Review & Swatches
Three new products have entered the Urban Decay Naked line this year- a Beauty Balm, a cheek trio, and this 6 piece nail polish set. This nail polish set, in my opinion, is pretty awesome, and follows suit with most of UD's other polishes- small sizes so you actually have a chance of using up the polish before you are bored with it, and in a set of six.
The colors here, obviously, are set to be in the same color scheme as the rest of the naked line- neutral and easy-for-everyone-to-wear shades. This set ranges from some really light neutrals to a super sparkly deep charcoal, and has quite a few different finishes as well, which helps to balance the set out nicely. All shades applied really nicely- two coats to opaque, smooth, and not streaky. Yay!

My favorites here are Sidecar, Hustle, and Creep :) Least fave is probably Naked.. not really a fan of super neutral nail polishes like that, plus think the yellowish tone looks weird on me!
This nail set is available for $26 from .
15 Comments
I'm wearing sidecar right now! I'm impressed by how they wear too :)
Hustle and Creep are gorgeous! Not worth buying the set though when I have dupes though! Pass!
woefully underwhelmed. =/
I love hustle but I don't really like any others. I would not buy this for one color
Whoa, all of these colors are actually really good – they're accurate transformations of the shadows /and/ they all look attractively wearable as nail polishes! They look good as a set together – very balanced. Is it just me or is it weirdly awesome seeing familiar eye shadows being twinned into nail polish form, even down to the glitter size and finish?? I think creep should have had some multicolored shimmer, but toasted and sidecar are so accurate!!
I am quite excited for these to be released in the UK. I like the colour range and UD products are always great quality.
I love hustle. Does anyone know if they are sold seperately?
Hustle and Creep are beautiful. I wish they were sold separately as they are the only two colors in the set I would wear.
i like hustle & creep, but the others i really don't like..
love love them! i was wondering when you were going to tell us about these set :)
i'm not a big fan of shimmery polishes, creep does look gorgeous though
they are ok, but not really my cup of tea.
Urban Decay really needs to stop with all these new Naked products. Sure, the first palette was awesome, and so was the second, but a nail polish line? Really?
Does anyone know of a dupe for the first one, the neutral "Naked" shade? I only want that one because it's a perfect nude for my nailbed when I swatched it in the store but I don't want the whole set, the other colors aren't "naked" or neutral at all so I don't even know why they're in a "naked" nail palette. Please let me know if you know of a dupe!!

Your Word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path.
-Psalm 119:105 (NLT)
Thoughts on Today's Verse
We journey through a fallen world with many pitfalls, slippery places and dark foes seeking to destroy our close fellowship with our Lord and Saviour. Not only are there external difficulties and dangers but also internal failings and weakness that lurk deep within our soul, which can cause us to walk away from our 'First Love.' God's Word is written to lead us away from each dark danger that crosses our path and to guide our feet into His way of peace : His wonderful light : His Spirit-led life and His eternal truth, as we move ever closer to our future heavenly home. His Word not only warns of danger but truly is a treasure-trove of precious gemstone, to be hidden deep within our heart – for its words of wisdom guides our thinking; it precious promises encourage our hearts and its perfect pattern is to be the adjudicator of our daily conduct. The Bible is the sure Word of the living God which we do well to guard within our hearts, for it lights up every corner of our lives and is God's instrument to lead us into holiness and to guide our feet into His way of truth.
My Prayer
Dear God, thank You for your written Word, which provides me with such strength for today and great hope for tomorrow. As I seek to read Your Word and hide its truth within my heart day by day and as I seek to follow Your will for my life, please bring to my remembrance Your Word, as I face the difficulty and trials that lies ahead. Thank You for Your Word of light in this dark world, in Jesus name I pray. AMEN

How Britney Spears' Boyfriend Lost 50 Pounds!
What a difference two years can make!
According to an insider, Britney Spears' boyfriend, Jason Trawick, has shed an astonishing 50 pounds since he began dating the pop princess in 2009. What's his secret?
PHOTOS: Britney's bikini body over the years
"We love to work out," Spears, 29, told Ryan Seacrest last month. "We do stuff together like that. We take walks."
VIDEO: See Britney's first live performance in two years
The "Till The World Ends" singer added that Trawick's abs are "definitely ripped."
Looks aside, what does Spears love most about the 39-year-old William Morris Endeavor Entertainment agent?

"He makes me laugh, and we are so comfortable being ourselves," she told Us Weekly two weeks ago. "We like to stay home, order in, watch movies, go to dinner with friends. And we love getting away for the weekend. Some of our favorite spots are Las Vegas, Hawaii or Mexico."

Lady's man and Maroon 5 singer Adam Levine has perfected the art of the first date: a round of McFlurries and Big Macs at McDonalds!
He told Refinery29 , "I always like to dress up in a tuxedo and tell the girl to dress real fancy. I like to pick her up and go to McDonalds in a tuxedo."
But don't worry, Adam has thoroughly thought out his plan. He continued, "It's a good, spontaneous, romantic thing you can do that's also cost-effective. What if you don't like the person? It's only the first date. It's the first time you're hanging out — do something quirky and romantic. You don't want to show it all off on the first date, you know? Dress fancy, but go to McDonalds. Her world will be so rocked. You might be able to take her to the opera afterwards. If you don't like her, you can just take her home."
Considering the man is currently dating Victoria's Secret Angel Behati Prinsloo -- whom he met while dating another Victoria Secret's model Anne V according to Wet Paint -- he might just know what he's talking about.
How would you feel about a first date to McDonalds?

PHOTOS: Amazing pictures of waterspouts and other severe weather events!
(CBS News) While a hefty paycheck is seen by many as the key to workplace happiness, Fortune magazine recently took into account factors like childcare, work-life balance and health benefits in their formulation of the 100 best companies to work for.
The magazine partnered with the Great Place to Work Institute to conduct the most extensive employee survey in corporate America.
Based on the survey, the top five companies to work for in the U.S. are: Google, followed by North Carolina-based SAS, CHG Healthcare Services, Boston Consulting Group, and Wegmans Food Market.
Google clinched the best company crown for the fourth time -- the search engine giant offered perks ranging from 100,000 hours of free massages to access to their three newly opened wellness center and a seven-acre sports complex in 2012.
Andy Serwer, managing editor of Fortune magazine, announced the list Wednesday on "CBS This Morning," and said Google's main office complex in Silicon Valley is "almost like a college campus, with free food, benefits for pets, and electric cars."
"They get the best talent in America," Serwer said of Google, and they get them "to stay there."
Serwer added that their survey showed obvious factors including "pay and benefits" as "really important" in fostering a positive workplace but added that "extra bonuses for vacation time, benefits for same-sex partners and healthcare" are particularly important to employees as well.

Last week I was on my Paddle Board listening to the water. Thinking about this crazy amazing journey I've been on since December. I am proud to say I am Cancer FREE but this is only the beginning of my health journey.
Everyday I dive deeper into the unknown of 'why' and 'what if' and you wanna know what, I never get an answer but what I do get is a peace within me I never had before. A knowing that as long as I keep moving forward, taking action and being as mindful as I can… that is enough.
Needless to say this journey has transformed who I am but it has also brought a new dimension to my children as well. I think sometimes we forget they are people too with worry, fears and anxiety.
My oldest is struggling with fear and anxiety around, "what if something bad happens to Mom?" or, what if he gets cancer?
I hear about cases like mine from a lot parents. Their heightened child's sensitivity which has sometimes manifested itself into…
- Social anxiety (the child has a hard time making quality friendships)
- Being extremely sensitive to other people's negative emotions
- Bedtime fears
- Separation anxiety from parents
- Worry about the health and well being of their parents
- Constantly afraid of what will happen. Sick with worry
Often times this is a case of a sensitive child. A child with an overactive nervous system who doesn't quite know how to control it.
You may not see it now but being sensitive is a gift, a blessing – but how can you support your sensitive child?
How can you help your child let go of these worries, fears and anxieties without losing your sanity in the process?
Next Wednesday June 3rd I am hosting a Free Online Webinar that dives deeper on this topic of how we can support our children through their negative emotions.
This is one of the only opportunities this year that I will be answering your questions LIVE on this webinar.
If you have a sensitive child and you are looking to get some relief then this Webinar is for you.
All you have to do is CLICK HERE, enter your name, email address and I will send you all the details to join the webinar for Wednesday June 3rd and how to get your questions answered on the webinar.
Being sensitive isn't a curse and your child doesn't have to struggle anymore. The tools I will be teaching you have saved my sanity as a parent and helped my son release many of his fears within minutes.
CLICK HERE to Join me June 3rd.
3 Steps To Helping Your Child Manage Anger & Anxiety.
Much love,
P.S. If you know someone who could use this FREE webinar, forward this email to them. All they have to do is REGISTER HERE. You never know the impact you're making by giving someone a resource they have been looking for.
