About 2018 there have been more rumors and speculation than about the year 2000 and the famous Y2K computer catastrophe. Is there a bullet of truth in these rumors and speculation? Or will they all be the fruit of an infinite collective imagination?
From an astrological point of view, 2018 is characterized by numerous aspects and events involving planets in mutable signs. And the mutable signs mean change.
In 2018, no less than 4 planets transgress the mutable signs. Also, 3 eclipses (of the total of 4 eclipses) and 2 relegations take place in Gemini and Sagittarius or in Virgo and Pisces. All these events and astrological aspects that occur in mutable signs suggest that 2018 will be a year of much instability. This website horoscope2018.guru presents a different for the yearly horoscope. Read it find out more about it.
Uranian and plutonic influences in horoscope 2018
The changes we have been witnessing for some time (including the global financial crisis and riots in the Middle East and North Africa) betray the influence of Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn. Uranus and Pluton will form exact points in June and September 2018, but their effects will be felt throughout 2018.
Uranus is the planet of change and surprising events. Pluton is associated with global events and global finances, and when in Capricorn it is also associated with governance, rules and structure. And when Uranus and Pluton are in conflict, we can expect changes on many planes at the planetary scale.
Jupiter's Influence in the Horoscope of 2018
Jupiter spends the first half of 2018 in Taurus, the sign associated with stability and money. From this position, Jupiter continues to contribute to the strengthening of the world economy. On June 11, 2018, Jupiter goes to Gemini, where he will stay for about 1 year. Jupiter in Gemini favors learning, education and communication of all kinds.
Saturation Influence in Horoscope 2018
In the first three quarters of 2018, Saturn in Libra emphasizes interpersonal relationships. People and good understanding with others matter more than material possessions.
On October 5, 2018, Saturn passes from Libra to Scorpio, a sign associated with finance. Therefore, for two and a half years, as Saturn's transit through Scorpio takes, we will witness restructuring in the financial field, both at the personal level and at state and world level, regardless of whether these restructurings will be planned or imposed by circumstances. We will also witness a reassessment of values and an increase in savings.
Neptunian Influence in the Horoscope of 2018
On February 3, 2018, Neptune passes from Aquarius to Pisces, where it will remain until 2025. Neptune in Pisces emphasizes health and vitality on the planet and the ocean. Neptune in Pisces also increases interest in charity and self-help. Oceans may become an important source of energy.
Year 2018 – change and opportunity
It is obvious that 2018 will bring new changes. And change always brings new opportunities for those who know to be flexible and adaptable. Instead of opting for change, use your expertise and expertise to take advantage of new opportunities!
Important astral events in 2018:
January 2018: triangle Saturn-Neptune in air signs
January-April 2018: Mars retrograde
February 2018: Neptune enters Pisces
May-June 2018: Venus retrograde
July 2018: Held in T Uranus-Pluton-Mars
October 2018: Saturn enters Scorpio
6 November 2018: Mercury retrograde
December 21, 2018: winter solstice and the great galactic alignment
A very active year 2018 is awaiting you.
Coming in November in Virgo, Mars must have given you an impetus as early as 2011 and it will keep you plugged in by July 2018. Mars tells you the need to initiate, act, debug or fight, give you energy and courage , Stimulates your ambition, leadership abilities, decision-making spirit.
To capitalize on these attributes, you need a motivation, purpose, stake. Otherwise, the Martian energy can find its debacle in badly coordinated actions, conflicting, accidents, incidents.
Be especially careful between 24 January and 15 April, when you need calm and caution, and it is not advisable to start something new, buy your car, gear or equipment, get into altercations, practice dangerous sports, drive risky, etc .
Beyond this dynamic backdrop, during April-June 2018, Venus's transit brings a favorable flow of careers (especially through influential relationships or women), and can make workflow influenced by collaborations or feelings.
The profession is a profit and reward. In June 2018, Jupiter also enters the career house, and the chances of success gain in size and extend until the summer of 2013.
The Great Benefit helps you rise socially, gain authority, prestige and honors. It favors large-scale projects, occupations related to foreign, tourism or multinationals, to administration, to cultural, academic or legislative environments.
The success comes through the support of important characters. June and July 2018 are rewarding months.
Financially, in August 2018 some complications are possible. In October 2018, Saturn comes out of the money house where he spent three years, and the material situation relaxes.

spiralsAfter finishing the painting Orange Spiral 2 I became dissatisfied with the background. I think the blue background was a distraction from the orange. I'm much happier with the newer background.
I also decided to make this painting available for sale. I was going to save it for the art show but I have more orange paintings in mind for that.

The fact that the loss of personal details of 25 million people was 'entirely avoidable' tells us something about the difficulty in promoting innovation, when getting the basics right can prove to be so difficult. How can we ask government departments to be more innovative when their basic systems for data security are said to be 'woefully inadequate'?
Cadence's work on innovation has been looking at how systems can be improved by tapping into the knowledge of front line workers (and users!) and creating the conditions and incentives for them to innovate.
The report in to HMRC's loss of data discs quotes junior staff who seemed to realise that what they were doing was wrong - but that was not enough to stop them going ahead and doing it anyway.
What stopped them bringing up their concerns with more senior staff?
Would they have been listened to?
Would their ideas for how to do it better been acted upon?
Would they have got any reward if they had improved things?
What reward would they have wanted?

Hello everyone!
I went to Kenzo Ramen at Dundas and Bay.
I was impressed with the ramen I had ordered but again, wished they have added more vegetables and ramen noodles.
Entrance with super larged sized posters to attract customers. I liked it how they have explained the different types of ramen and the types of topping on the ramen.
Sorry this photo was blurry...
Tonkotsu Sho-yu Ramen was awesome! As lame as it sounds, it felt as if there was a party in my mouth! :P
I wish I had more Bok Choi!
This creamy, rich, savoury broth will restore your soul o^.^o
Gotta have garlic with your ramen!
I loved the ramen noodles itself. Yummy yummy in my tummy!
Takoyaki as always! Yummy! :D
They have their own anime character. Kinda looks like Sonny but grumpier. I'm just joking Sonny!
A bit of Octopus in the centre.
Can someone please define Super Noodles?LOL!

Doggie Daycare at Faust is a fun, safe, energetic and comfortable environment for your dog to socialize with other well balanced dogs. Our small, but cozy daycare allows for a limited amount of dogs to socialize at one time. We are not trying to compete with the large daycare facilities, so there will never be overcrowding. We are able to really match personalities, so we find your dog that "special" friend he/she will look forward to playing with each visit.
With being a small facility we also have the ability to provide one on one daycare for those dogs who have special socialization needs. They may not do well in a group setting, but would enjoy some one on one time with Ruth our kennel attendant. (affectionately known as Mama Ruth). Her kind and gentle way can warm the heart of any dog. Your dog can play ball, go through the agility course, slide down the slide or just enjoy a belly rub.
Another unique feature about Faust daycare is we accept Pit Bulls into our daycare. We recognize that this breed has received a bad rap and they deserve to have playtime as much as any breed. All breeds have the potential for aggression, so we do not discriminate. Dogs need socialization, they are pack animals and long to play with other dogs. All of our dogs are put through an assessment to determine whether they are a candidate for daycare. When a dog passes evaluation and is accepted into daycare they are matched with playmates of the same temperament, size is not always the determining factor in placement. Ruth our daycare attendant supervises all playtime.
Daycare requirements:
All dogs must be FULLY vaccinated with Da2p (distemper parvo), Bordetella, Rabies and Leptospirosis. No exceptions.
All Day camp dogs must be picked up by 4:30pm unless other arrangements have been made.
Any Day Care dogs not picked up by closing will be checked in for overnight boarding and our standard overnight fees will apply.
During the temperament evaluation we will determined your dog's suitability for a designated play group. We will make every effort to place dogs in appropriate groups based on temperament, size, energy level and age. If your dog is unable to be placed in a group, individual playtime is available.
Any pet that has been sick with a contagious illness will need to be cleared by a veterinarian prior to re-entry into Day camp.
Daycare Pricing:
Half day - $15.00
Full day – $25.00
2nd Dog:
1/2 day $10.00 full day $20.00
Additional dogs:
1/2 day $8.00 Full day $18.00
Daycare fee with overnight boarding:
$10.00 2nd Dog $8.00

by Anne Scott The Bloodstream City >
Eighteen-year-old Louis sat at an outside table at Café Aroma in Rue De Mon Amour mesmerised by the girls on display in shop-front windows on the other side of the street, each girl in various stages of undress and repose advertising her own particular pleasures. He watched as men strolled by, stopped, looked, and collected a wave or a pouted kiss from the occupant … then an empty window. How did you choose? Who would you choose? Louis wondered. Every fantasy or day-dream was on offer. He sipped his wine.
She leans over and kisses me teasingly on the lips, eyes, up and down my neck; butterfly lashes softly caress my face. She flicks her tongue in my mouth like a snake scenting its prey. Her taste nips at my tongue. Gripping her ample breasts I bite and suck greedily the dark plums of their nipples. I groan as she caresses …strokes and denies me. Tapped by my own lust I mount her with provoked antagonism, spearing into her with the sound of a man in torture as my frenzied body exerts itself to free me from the pain ...and surrenders to la petite mort.
The clamour of the Paris city alerted him, the wine glass still clutched in his hand. She remained sitting across the street in the window.

What the hell, man? What is with these chicks? It seems like every time the Victoria's Secret girls are done with their pillow fights over at the Vegas Casino I own, they want cupcakes. When did cupcakes get so trendy? This really snuck up on me. I mean, usually I'm prepared for a sneak attack due to my ninja reflexes always being two steps ahead of everyone else, but these cupcakes are a real bitch.
Dudes, chicks go bananas for these things. Personally I don't get it, but for your sake, I'll point you in the direction of some places to get them. I've never been to them personally since I usually have my good friends, George Clooney and Brad Pitt pick some up before we go golfing with J.Lo's ass. I'm not going to give you any recipes since these girls at the cupcake stores will do a much better job**.
In the SF Bay Area try the following spots:
Kara's Cupcakes
3249 Scott St
(between Chestnut St & Lombard St)
San Francisco, CA 94123
(415) 563-2253
American Cupcake
415) 244-7650
Sweet Things
3585 California Street
(between Locust St & Spruce St)
San Francisco, CA 94118
(415) 221-8583
Any of the three of these spots should satisfy. If you don't live in the Bay Area, let me know, and I'll swing by in my private jet flown by John Travolta and Snoop, and pick you up. Also, if you don't have a girl to get cupcakes for then maybe you can meet one at the cupcake store, since hanging out by yourself at a cupcake shop isn't creepy.
**Don't get me wrong, fellas, I have the utmost confidence that you could bake some cute little tasty cupcakes, but these will look better and save you the trouble. Plus, sometimes just going out and buying some dessert-type stuff will make her nuttier than a port-a-potty at a peanut festival. (What?)

Mmmmmm....cupcakes. I think that the whole trend over them started with Magnolia in NYC. It is a super yummy and delicious and yummy bakery. It has been featured on everything from Food Network to Sex and the City...I think that has something to do with them (besides the fact that they are just plain good).

heh heh. Two of my friends have cupcake tattoos. One of them makes them a lot and the other one works here.
They are SOOO good. We scarfed a few down the other night because suddenly we were very...hungry. Hm.
Remember, you may hate cupcakes, but they love you!

- President Donald Trump shocked nation Tuesday by firing FBI chief Jim Comey
- The reaction from Democrats was unanimous outrage and condemnation
- Lawmakers warned that the US was in midst of 'constitutional crisis'
- Pundits likened Trump's decision to that of ex-President Richard Nixon
- In 1973, Nixon fired the special prosecutor investigating Watergate
The decision to fire James Comey amid the FBI's investigation into the President's ties to Russia outraged Democrats who warned of a Nixon-like constitutional crisis.
Donald Trump wrote to the bureau's director Comey on Tuesday afternoon saying: 'You are hereby terminated and removed from office immediately.'
Among Democrats, the reaction to Trump's dismissal of Comey was one of rage mixed with apprehension about the future of American democracy.
Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen warned that the US was at 'a dark and dangerous moment in history.'
Van Hollen accused the president of igniting 'a crisis of confidence' in the Justice Department.
'Firing Comey has the foul stench of an attempt to stop an ongoing investigation into collusion between Trump campaign and the Russians,' he said.
Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz, a Democrat, tweeted: 'We are in a full-fledged constitutional crisis.'
Two Democratic senators, Bob Casey of Pennsylvania and Patrick Leahy of Vermont, described the decision by Trump to sack Comey as 'Nixonian.'
Another Democratic senator, Ed Markey of Massachusetts, said the decision had parallels to Nixon's firing of Watergate special prosecutor Archibald Cox in 1973.
Markey said that Trump's move 'is disturbingly reminiscent of the Saturday Night Massacre during the Watergate scandal and the national turmoil that it caused.'
Following the President's firing of FBI Director James Comey, who was the head of the investigation into collusion between Trump's administration and Russia, some were quick to ask whether or not this would be his 'Saturday Night Massacre'.
In 1973, President Richard Nixon also fired the official responsible for investigating potential wrongdoing in his administration.
On October 20, 1973, President Nixon fired independent special prosecutor Archibald Cox, who was head of the investigation into the Watergate Scandal.
His firing lead to the resignations of Attorney General Elliot Richardson and Deputy Attorney General William Ruckelshaus.
That Saturday night, news broadcast networks turned their airtime over to the 'firestorm' and 'constitutional crisis.'
The pushback against these firings was so significant that Nixon was forced to name a new special prosecutor, Texas lawyer Leon Jaworski.
The story then played out over the next 10 months, ending when a unanimous Supreme Court forced Nixon to hand over the tapes.
Their contents proved the cover-up that led to Nixon's eventual resignation.
Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz (top), a Democrat, tweeted: 'We are in a full-fledged constitutional crisis.' Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen (bottom) warned that the US was at 'a dark and dangerous moment in history'
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (above) claimed the firing was a cover-up attempt over Trump's alleged links to Russia
'EVERYONE who cares about independence & rule of law in America should be "troubled by the timing and reasoning" of Comey firing. Period,' former US attorney Preet Bharara tweeted Tuesday in response to a Republican lawmaker, Richard Burr
'We are careening ever closer to a Constitutional crisis,' Markey said.
March 2015: It becomes publicly known that Hillary Clinton, during her tenure as United States Secretary of State, had used her family's private email server for official communications and FBI opened investigation.
May 2016: The State Department's Office of the Inspector General released an 83-page report about the State Department's email practices, including Clinton's.
July 2016: FBI director James Comey announces the bureau's investigation had concluded that Clinton was 'extremely careless' in handling her email system but recommended that no charges be filed against her. Two days later the State Department reopens its probe into the email controversy.
September 2016: DailyMail.com reveals Huma Abedin's husband Anthony Weiner has sexted a 15-year-old girl. The FBI investigates Weiner, already known as a sexting-addicted pervert, for sexual contact with a minor
October 2016: Eleven days before the election, Comey notifies Congress the FBI is reopening the case due to emails found on a laptop used by Weiner including some from Abedin's Clintonemail.com address
November 2016: Comey notifies Congress the conclusion that Clinton is in the clear is unchanged – but day slater she loses the election. Democrats blame Comey.
April 2017: Clinton surfaces to explicitly blame Comey, Russia and misogyny for her loss.
May 2017: Comey 'misspeaks' in Senate testimony, saying Abedin sent hundreds or thousands of emails to her husband. In fact she only sent the pervert a handful.
9 May: Comey is dramatically fired with immediate effect by the president.
Nixon's dismissal of Cox, who was investigating him for his role in the Watergate coverup, is widely viewed as leading to the president's eventual resignation.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer claimed the firing was a cover-up attempt over Trump's alleged links to Russia.
Schumer told reporters that the decision to dismiss Comey was 'a big mistake'.
'This is part of a troubling pattern from the Trump administration,' the New York Democrat said.
'They fired Sally Yates. They fired Preet Bharara. And now they fired director Comey, the very man leading the investigation. This does not seem to be a coincidence,' he said.
Bharara was dismissed by Trump from his post as US Attorney for the Southern District in New York in March – even though Trump had previously asked Bharara, a holdover from the Obama administration, to stay on weeks earlier.
'EVERYONE who cares about independence & rule of law in America should be "troubled by the timing and reasoning" of Comey firing. Period,' Bharara tweeted Tuesday in response to a Republican lawmaker, Richard Burr.
Schumer said that appointing a special prosecutor to investigate alleged ties between Trump and Russia was the 'only way to restore the American people's faith.'
Keith Ellison, a Congressman from Minnesota, said: 'We are witnessing a Constitutional crisis unfold before our very eyes.'
Pundits were also beside themselves in reacting to the news.
Jeffrey Toobin, a commentator for CNN, condemned Trump's 'grotesque abuse of power.'
'This is the kind of thing that goes on in non-democracies,' Toobin said.
'That when there is an investigation that reaches near the president of the United States, or the leader of a non-democracy, they fire the people who are in charge of the investigation.'
Jeffrey Toobin, a commentator for CNN, condemned Trump's 'grotesque abuse of power'
Toobin and others have likened Trump's dismissal of Comey to former President Richard Nixon's (left) firing of Archibald Cox (right) in 1973. Cox was a special prosecutor who was looking into allegations of wrongdoing by Nixon and his aides in the Watergate affair
'This is not normal,' Toobin said.
'This is not politics as usual. This is something that is completely outside how the American law is supposed to work.'
'This is a political act when the president is under investigation,' Toobin said.
'When his White House counsel was described yesterday as being told that his National Security Adviser was subject to blackmail by the Russians and they fired the attorney general a few days later,' he said, referring to Sally Yates.
'Now they've fired the FBI director. I mean, what kind of country is this?'
Attorney General James Comey sealed a reputation as a brave and principled actor after a 2004 standoff during the Bush administration, when he refused White House efforts to get him to reauthorize warrantless eavesdropping while Attorney General John Ashcroft was hospitalized.
Comey had been appointed deputy attorney general by President George W. Bush, having served as a U.S. attorney in New York under Rudy Giuliani in New York.
With Ashcroft incapacitated, Bush administration officials wanted Ashcroft, and then Comey, to sign off on an extension of the authority, with just hours to go before an N.S.A. program expired. Comey refused.
His stand was a major reason why President Obama nominated him to be head of the FBI in 2013. Obama hailed Comey as a person of 'fierce independence and deep integrity' as he nominated him for the FBI post, which carries a 10-year term.
A devout Catholic, a registered Republican and a former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, he seemed to radiate independence from the Democratic machine.
And many congressional Democrats became far less supportive of Comey after the 2016 presidential election.
Obama's man: Republican James Comey was chosen by the Democratic president for his principled stand but ended up in the words of one senator as 'as popular as cholera'

I had made the bold proclamation that my early season struggles were due, in large part, to the replacement referees and not my murky crystal ball. After going 6-8 last week, I am starting to wonder…
One thing is certain regardless of whether or not the officiating was on point or not; there is a distinct sense of parity this season that has been missing from most pro sports leagues. Despite my bad weeks, I'm going at the same clip as most other Yahoo! Users (which is 52-39). For the first time in years, I don't have a clue who'll be in the Super bowl.
And I'm not worried about it right now. Right now, I'm focused on navigating this brave new NFL.
Read on.
Seahawks at Niners
Both of these teams were involved in late game stunners albeit in significantly different ways. The Seattle defense (and their 12thman) gave Brady and the Patriots fits all day, Russell Wilson had a career defining moment and the Seahawks validated their fast start. The 49ers were supposed to be the best team in the NFL this year, the team that could not be beat and instead they were touched up at home by the defending champs in a game they were expected to exact their vengeance. Now these two divisional rivals tangle in primetime and we're in for a low scoring, defensive clinic treat. Is it Halloween yet? Scary linebackers are going to be running amuck all night long. The Seahawks are built much like the Niners with Marshawn Lynch the engine of an offense that is provided opportunities by their killer defense. But can they beat the incumbent on the road? Coming off a beatdown, I expect the Niners to bounce back with Harbaugh's fire very visible on both sides of the ball and win at home.
Ravens at Texans
Like the Seahawks/Niners tilt, this matchup's going to be reduced to a defensive struggle. How much will the loss of Lardarius Webb and Ray Lewis affect the defense? Nevermind what Ray's non-football influence offers the Ravens, his on-field presence makes all the difference in the run game. A run game, mind you, that Arian Foster and the Texans can't wait to get back on track in a big way. Coming off a disastrous showing at home in primetime, the Texans will be looking to establish the run and take advantage of Baltimore's dinged up secondary. It'll be interesting to see how Baltimore exploits Brian Cushing's absence and whether or not that really was the difference for the Texans against Green Bay last week. Baltimore is notorious for being tough to beat in the face of adversity and the odds and might be in the perfect position to win on the road with a Texans team that might be feeling human for the first time this year. Not in my estimation, though.
Packers at Rams
This has trap game tattooed across its face. The Rams have a tough defense, have been very well coached and are getting just enough production offensively to overachieve and get to .500 in a very tough division. Will it be adequate at home against a Packer team coming off an explosive offensive performance? My guess is not. While Packer fans I know are all concerned about it, I'm not. The Pack should continue the momentum and win on the road.
Titans at Bills
I hate to admit it but I really did flip a coin on this one. On one hand, the Titans look a bit better managed with Hasselbeck under center and CJ2k is due for another big game which is not a stretch against this awful Bills defense. On the other hand, the Bills have explosive potential on offense especially with both Spiller and Jackson available and involved. Fitzpatrick is much better under center when they are. Awful when they're not. This will be a barn burner much like the Titans/Lions tilt was. My coin flip went with the home team and I'm sticking to that story.
Browns at Colts
I'm happy for the Browns getting their first win of the season (and having called it! Hehe) but there'll be a letdown this week when they travel to Indy. The two areas where the Browns can give the Colts trouble especially on the road is in their run game (Indy is awful against the run, just look at what Shonn Greene did to them last week) and in their secondary where they can limit Andrew Luck's effectiveness in the air. It just won't be that much of a limitation. I think in the end, Luck will find a way to take this winnable game at home. The Browns won one at home; I just don't trust them on the road just yet.
Saints at Buccaneers
The Saints finally got their first notch in the win column but it does not get them out of the woods. They still only outscored a team in the Chargers that we now know is not as good as advertised (at least defensively) and otherwise have been unable to stop ANYONE to help Brees out. The Bucs have been surprisingly solid this year after stinking up the joint last season, having a nice running game from rookie Doug Martin and a much improved passing game from Josh Freeman and his new weapons. Their defense plays tougher at home than on the road… and they always play the Saints tough. I know a lot of folks will disagree with me but I think the Bucs are going to bring the Saints back down to Earth. Brees was having a special night when they got their first win of the season; coach Payton was in the house, the cameras were all on Brees as he broke the record and the Chargers expectedly choked away the game. The Saints' problems (many of which surround their defense and lack of middle linebacker presence and passrush) will not have gone away in a week. The Bucs will not provide the Saints with those comforting circumstances.
Cowboys at Panthers
Upset alert. Most folks are taking the Cowboys in this one and with good reason. They barely lost to the Ravens (they shot themselves in the foot is more like it) and have had the potential of being a contender this season (like so many before it) and can turn it around at any moment. However, here are a couple things to consider: with Murray out, an already ineffective running game (due to an offensive offensive line) will be even more so with the grossly underachieving Felix Jones taking over. Romo is volatile when forced to throw and the Panthers, for all their defensive issues, can pick people off in bunches. Consider also that Cam Newton had an absolutely awful outing his last time out when Seattle's elite defensive front made life miserable for a team that is predicated on running the ball from both the half back and quarterback position. After an extra week to prepare for the Cowboys and with a concerted effort to right the ship on what has so far been a disastrous sophomore effort, I expect Cam to have a monster day. At home.
Cardinals at Vikings
A few weeks ago, we were talking about the surprising Arizona Cardinals. They were winning with stifling, aggressive front seven defense and just enough offense. Then that offense became less than enough and just got even more so when Kevin Kolb was added to the laundry list of injured players that has already claimed Arizona's entire running game, it seems. This is no good against the Vikes who, despite coming down to earth last week in D.C., will bounce back at home to stifle an already stifled offense. Ponder was uncharacteristically mistake prone en route to an ineffective day for the offense. Expect a bounce back effort by the whole squad and multiple sacks for Jared Allen on Skelton behind that nonexistent Arizona offensive line.
Redskins at Giants
What to make of the Giants? They have played exactly as you would expect of them. They've lost both divisional games this year. Beaten everyone else. Struggled with Cleveland and Tampa at home… but smashed the Niners in San Francisco. Maybe trends mean nothing to Eli Manning (and as a result to us armchair football analysts) but everything points to a loss at home for the G men. RGIII seems like he can run against just anyone (as long as he slides and keeps his head from getting rung) and Pierre-Paul can dish all the warning he'd like but RGIII and Alfred Morris will kill the Giants on the ground, an area of weakness for them. Then again, they didn't seem too phased by San Francisco's run game a week ago. At any rate, they're the favorites in this game and as a result are most likely going to lose. I'm counting on the Redskins' rushing attack to set the tone early and often.
Jets at Patriots
The dynamic here is so simple, it jumps off the screen like a mike blitz. The Jets ran shod on Indy's awful run defense and it set the tone for them to win. The Patriots lost a very tough game against one of the best defenses in the league that not only shut down their run game but gave Brady nowhere to pass the ball on most downs. This is a bad situation for the Jets to be in coming off their win, lined up behind the cue ball with Belichick staring them down. These bad beans will eventually spell doom for them in Foxborough. I don't envy Sanchez this weekend.
Jaguars at Raiders
When I picked against the Raiders last week, they nearly pulled off the monumental upset of the Falcons in Atlanta, picking off Matty Ice three times in the first half after not having picked anyone off all season! So by that logic, I ought to pick against them every week, no? No. The Jaguars are probably the only team where it might be safe (emphasis on the might) to say the Raiders are a lock to win. The Raiders haven't been nearly as bad as their record or their blowouts have indicated. They've lead or been tied or trailed by a few points at halftime in every game this year before blowing it in the 3rd quarter. The Jags have been even worse coming out of halftime and the Raider running game behind McFadden should get the job done in closing this one out. It's possible that the Raider defense is turning the corner finally in getting pressure on the QB as evidenced by their impressive performance on the road last week against Atlanta's explosive offense. The Jags defense isn't much of a test for the Raider offense even if it does go off but it'll be an opportunity to gauge them anyway. Then there's the possibility the Raiders blow it anyway.
Steelers at Bengals
The Steelers are having a very pedestrian year. Their defense is not nearly as good as they've been in past years and their running game is dinged up and ineffective. This has drastically altered the team's identity, turning it into a passing offense that looks to outscore their opponents rather than grind it out. Lucky for them they draw a date with the Bengals who are looking very streaky at this point… they win three straight and look like they've turned the corner, then lose back to back games to Miami at home and the previously winless Browns in Cleveland. Which Bengals team shows up? The Steelers hope the recent trend continues. However, I'm convinced that playing at home against division rival and previously anointed monkey-on-the-back Steelers, the Bengals come out strong running the ball well and Dalton making smart, big throws.
Lions at Bears
You never know with these Monday Night NFC North games but how can you bet against the Bears at this point? They were embarrassed in a similar spot earlier this season by the Packers but that was in Green Bay and that was, well, the Packers. The Lions come in being one of the bigger underachievers this season (although they beat a very uninspiring Eagles team in dramatic fashion) due largely to not having an effective running game, porous defense and not many receiving weapons outside of Megatron (and sometimes Burleson) for frustrated stud QB Matthew Stafford. The Bears feast on QBs with limited options and no running game to back them up. On the other side of the ball, I just can't figure out who the Lions will use to stop Brandon Marshall. And if Matt Forte is on point, this game is a wrap. Which I think it will be.
Da Bears
Dig it.

On this week's episode of my podcast, I Have to Ask, I spoke with Stephen Kotkin, a historian of Russia and the Soviet Union who has just published the massive second volume of his Joseph Stalin biography, called Stalin: Waiting for Hitler, 1929–1941. With another volume set to come, this one ends just on the eve of Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union.
Below is an edited excerpt from the show. In it, we discuss what people misunderstand about Stalin's psychology, why he launched the purges in the manner he did, and the ways in which he differed from Adolf Hitler.
You can find links to every episode here; the entire audio interview is below. Please subscribe to I Have to Ask wherever you get your podcasts.
Isaac Chotiner: Why did you decide to embark on this massive 2,000-page, two-volume biography of Stalin? What did you feel like had not been said about Stalin?
Stephen Kotkin: Maybe I was crazy?
I wasn't going to say it, but yeah.
I'm in Soviet history, and it's one of these occupational hazards that after someone does some work on this and that, the Stalin temptation arises. Some people indulge it, and some don't. What happened was, in the very late '90s, Stalin's personal archive was released. This was about 1999–2000, and I had been thinking about whether the regime and his personal rule could be studied with the kind of depth that I applied to the single town that I wrote a book about previously.
It seems like you were resistant to the pop-psychological explanations of why Stalin became the man he became.
We have this fantastic phenomenon—Stalin, Mao [Zedong], Pol Pot. You begin to see a pattern here. You begin to see a kind of ruler, a type of rule, a way of going about tyranny, despotism, whatever you want to call it. Is it really personal, or how personal might it be? How do we study a phenomenon that seems to keep repeating itself? Clearly, there's something not just in the person—the person matters a great deal—but there's something bigger than that. And so we want to figure out the largest structures, the combination of ideas and institutions and politics that not only make possible a figure like Stalin but actually make it pretty likely. Certain systems bring about certain types of personalities, or at least they bring them to the fore.
What was it about the environment that Stalin was in that may have made someone like him more likely?
Here we have a guy who's born into a poor family on the periphery of the Russian Empire, not someone who's destined for the kind of role that he would later create for himself.
His father's a cobbler. His mother's a seamstress. He goes to school. He does well at school. He gets Russified because it's the Russian Orthodox Church that builds the schools in Georgia on the southern periphery of the Russian Empire. If you looked at this life all the way through 1917, when Stalin would be 39 years old, you don't see the future Stalin yet.
Some say his father beat him. Well, I got to tell you, my father beat me, too, and I haven't killed 20 million people yet.
Still time, but yeah.
There's maybe potential, you might say, but it looks unlikely in my case, right? So I decided to look at what people thought about him in real time—that is to say, not retrospectively. Thirty years later, if they survive, they remember when he was on the schoolyard when they were teenagers and he said, "Oh, I'm going to get you all." So they predict that he's going to kill 20 million people, somehow, later on. Well, that's not the answer.
The answer has to do with Russian power in the world, this very difficult place, and its aspirations to be a great or the greatest power or providential power under God has to do with Bolshevik ideology and trying to build a new world that's anti-capitalist.
There's obviously this large debate about whether Stalin is sort of a continuation of the Russian revolution or a break, where the Russian revolution went wrong, and it seems like one of the points you want to make is the degree to which Stalinist behavior was actually brought about by Bolshevik ideology.
Lenin in 1917 called his action a coup. Lenin called his new regime a dictatorship. Lenin said, "We're going to eliminate whole classes of people," which he called the bourgeoisie, as well as the gentry and all that. Lenin said of all this, and he began to do this. So the idea that there was some kind of revolution in there, which was better than Stalin, is hard to square with the documents.
But that's not the important point. The important point is building a dictatorship is really hard. It's not something that anybody can do. It takes talent and perseverance, of course in a perverse way, but nonetheless we have to give Stalin credit, perverse credit, for this incredible achievement of building a dictatorship inside the dictatorship of Lenin's revolution. So, that's a big story. The story is not whether Stalin fulfills the revolution and usurps power from Lenin. The story is the incredible dictatorship that he produces.
But it seems like your book constantly highlights ways in which, even if that's the case, that Stalin's behavior did matter every single day, and he took huge decisions that another leader may not have taken.
The normal idea of an alternative to Stalin, as you alluded to, is a kind of social democratic pluralistic revolution in the 1920s, sometimes called the Bukharin alternative, sometimes imagined or fantasized as a social democracy. The alternative to Stalin was collapse of the regime. In other words, it took somebody like Stalin to consolidate this dictatorship and implement the Bolshevik ideology, the Marxism-Leninism.
Let's think about 1928, which is where Volume 1 ends. One percent of the arable land in the country is collectively worked. So you've got a Bolshevik urban revolution, which is avowedly anti-capitalist, eliminating the bourgeoisie and creating state-owned and state-managed industry. You have a parallel separate peasant revolution where the peasants eliminate the gentry class and seize the land and become de facto landowners.
And Stalin looks at this and he says, "We can't have this." This is socialism in the cities and capitalism in the countryside. And any Marxist will tell you that class determines the political system, social relations of production determine the political system, so as the Marxists around Stalin also believed, this was not permanently stable. The thing that he did, which they couldn't understand or couldn't believe he could do, was to forcibly collectivize the entire Eurasia, more than 120 million peasants either deported internally or forced into collective farms. And he did this despite the fact that there was massive famine, despite tremendous opposition that arose, mass peasant resistance, and he did this because he was a true believer in the socialist future.
How does your analysis of the famine differ from other historians'?
We have very good documentation on what happened during the famine between 1931 and 1933 bleeding into 1934, a little bit, between 5 million–7 million people starved to death or died of related diseases. That's a pretty horrific famine. Another 50 million–70 million people starved and survived. Much of the literature wants to make this an intentional famine. Stalin intended, by this count, to kill these peasants—especially because many were Ukrainian, and he supposedly committed a genocide against the Ukrainian nation.
So we have documentation of Stalin's intentional murders that could completely overwhelm this studio, if it was all stacked up. We have hundreds of execution lists that he signed, hundreds, thousands of orders where he ordered torture or murder of individuals. So why don't we have that for the famine? In other words, if Stalin wanted to clean up his regime and eliminate documents showing him in an ill light, he failed, because those documents are in abundance, and for the famine we don't have such a document.
Let's turn to the purges and the executions, which are set off in 1934 when there is a murder of a man named Kirov, who is a party member, and this was kind of what Stalin used as a pretext to begin the purges. There's been a long historical debate about whether Stalin himself had Kirov murdered as an excuse to do this, sort of like the Reichstag fire in Germany.
So once again, we're dealing with well-trod mythologies about Stalin: that he was a mediocrity, he was a usurper, he destroyed rather than fulfilled the revolution, he intentionally killed the peasants and intentionally tried to commit genocide against the Ukrainian nation. And, of course, that he murdered Kirov in order to begin his so-called purges or what is better known as the Great Terror. So none of this is true.
There is, in fact, quite a lot of evidence that Stalin did not kill Kirov. I lay out this evidence in the book. Other people have written about this as well, but it's still a minority view. Most textbooks and most analysts hold Stalin responsible for Kirov's murder in December 1934 because he benefited from the murder. That's their deduction. However, this did not launch the so-called Great Purge. The Great Terror begins not right after December 1934, Kirov's murder, but two years later. So we need a new explanation.
It turns out that Stalin was criticized for collectivization. He felt that it was his greatest achievement. He felt that he had done what nobody thought was possible—force those capitalist, breeding peasants, those 120 million souls, into these collective farms and destroy capitalism in the countryside. He did that. No one else could have done that but a figure like him, just as we had a figure like Mao in the Chinese example and Pol Pot in the Cambodian example. Once again, it's no accident that these types of figures are necessary to carry out what only mass bloodshed can carry out.
They criticized him for what he regarded as his greatest achievement. They called for his removal, not openly, but they whispered about it behind his back. Instead of congratulating him, instead of lauding him and saying, "You know, we were wrong. You were right," they talked about how he had caused all of this excess bloodshed, unnecessary bloodshed.
To him it was absolutely necessary. There was no other way, and he was right, so his resentment began to boil over. This resentment had developed earlier because of Lenin's so-called testament calling for Stalin's removal. This happened in the 1920s, and I cover that in Volume 1. And now, in Volume 2, we have the boiling-over resentment from the criticism in the party. All during the Great Terror of 1936, '37, and '38, Stalin refers more to criticism of collectivization than to any other factor.
One of the most fascinating psychological aspects of the purges and executions are the confessions that they came along with. What is your reading psychologically of what was going on there? Why did Stalin feel the need to have these confessions, even though many of them were fake?
You're right. It's a puzzle. Here we have a guy who gives instructions to the secret police about what should be in the confessions. When the confessions come back to him, he reads these confessions. Some of them are hundreds of pages long. He reads the so-called testimony. It comes back to him very close to what he instructed. He then edits it, and sends it back for further torture in order to extract the edited versions of the confessions that he prefers.
And then, when it's to his liking, he begins to show it to his other minions and say, "See, I told you, spies and wreckers are all over the place. They've infiltrated everywhere. Look, and they're implicating your own." That is to say, his minions' own subordinates. "You see this? You trusted so-and-so, and so-and-so is now implicated. What do you have to say for yourself?" So it's almost inexplicable that a guy would act upon, and seem to believe, confessions that he himself dictated the content of; but these are the documents that we have for the Great Terror.
Moving toward World War II, what differences and similarities do you see between Stalin and Hitler?
So there's a [few] people in Stalin's category, and that would be Hitler and Mao, really. Hitler is also an incredible story in the fact that he's Stalin's contemporary and principal nemesis, which is really striking. What you have with Hitler is a guy who in some ways is even crazier than Stalin. That is to say, Hitler will take risks. He won't take calculated risks. He'll take risks, which are considerably uncalculated, and sometimes will pan out, and he'll get lucky and sometimes won't.
But the thing about Hitler and Stalin is that they both had ambitions. They both had aspirations for their countries to rise again as great powers in their own racist or class-determining ways. The Versailles Treaty of 1919, which many people blame for World War II, was an anomaly. The only way you could get that treaty was if both Germany and Russia were simultaneously flat on their backs. This has happened only once in modern world history, that time, post–World War I. And so the treaty was imposed on Germany without the participation of Russia. What happened was Hitler and Stalin brought their countries from their knees back to great power status in a single generation—and, of course, they then clashed against each other.
Why do you think Stalin was so unwilling to believe his advisers and his intelligence that Germany, in 1941, was on the verge of attacking the Soviet Union?
We have to look at the actual documentation, not what people later in their memoirs claim they said. For example, Churchill claimed he warned Stalin. There is no such warning in the documentation in real time. We have to look and see what Stalin was actually getting. What he was getting was a mess of information that was all hearsay. No foreign intelligence service ever got its hands on Operation Barbarossa, the Nazi invasion plan. That was only after the fact we saw that—that is to say, after the Nazis were defeated in World War II.
Stalin had overheard conversations, reported hearsay. Moreover, that hearsay was contaminated with disinformation. Because the Nazis understood that the Soviets had an extensive spy network, the Nazis used that spy network against Stalin, sort of like in judo when you use the strength of your opponent against that opponent. So they fed these Soviet spies with lies, and the lies were varied. But the key one—and the one that Stalin wanted to believe and therefore fell for—was that the massive German troop buildup in the east, right on the Soviet border, was not an invasion force but was to intimidate and blackmail Stalin so that he would yield Ukraine and other territories to Hitler without a fight. And this disinformation contaminated even the best spies that Stalin had, and that's what he was reading and chose to believe on the eve of the war.
What has changed the most in your analysis from the time when you went in thinking something about Stalin before Volume 1 to now?
One of the things that I really didn't understand was the depth of Stalin's charm. I knew he was a very effective ruler in some ways, but I didn't understand how not just intimidation, not just threats and blackmail, but his incredible charm was so effective for his rule.
He would bring people into his office. It was called the little corner. The Kremlin is a triangle, a citadel, a fortress unto itself, and Stalin's building inside the Kremlin was a triangle inside the triangle, and his office was on the second of three floors in the corner, a little corner. And they would come, and he would know everything about them. They'd be summoned. They'd show up. They had never met him. They had only seen him in newsreels or from afar.
He would look at them. He would tell them everything about them and their work. He would explain the technology that they were developing. He had read the dossiers and prepared. He would give advice. He would give them a new apartment, or he would give them a telephone or some other perquisite, but it was the inspiration that they derived from seeing how in command of his brief he was, how lively a conversationalist he was, how conversant in modern technology he was, and they would leave that office ready to kill for him. He did that again and again and again. The more you see the inside of the regime, the more you see the profound loyalty to his person.
Was it ever emotionally exhausting to do these books, not because of the amount of work you were putting in, but because of the subject matter?
Yeah, and it still is. You know, evil is difficult to live with on a day-to-day basis.
There's never been a regime more powerful than the Stalin regime, and let's hope there never is a regime as powerful again. But living with this on a day-to-day basis, coming across documents where there's blood, dried blood—it's no longer red; it's sort of a maroonish color. It's fading, but it's the blood of the people who were being interrogated and beaten to a pulp and in some cases beaten to death in order to make these confessions that you alluded to earlier. You live with that and, of course, it has an effect. At the same time there is this big story, which is the story of this individual, Joseph Stalin, and as you move forward in time, his biography, his personal story more and more resembles an entire history of the world.

The Quick Fix: Intimate, intriguing and intense
The Bottom Line: Examining the depths to which greed can take a man, this wholly immersive submarine treasure hunt is a welcome addition to January's stale slate of sucky cinema… It may not quite navigate the deeper waters of superior sub films, but it still finds a way to feel fresh, efficient and engaging in its own right. Jude Law delivers a riveting and commandingly gruff performance as a scorned captain hell-bent on retrieving rumored booty on the sea bed – and his rag-tag, shipmate skeleton crew (admittedly, all written fairly surface level) are perfectly cast and add varied levels of tension and trust aboard their rusted-out, well-past-it's-prime undersea vessel. You'll be swept away by the ruggedly gritty, tension-riddled, claustrophobically old school vibe this flick oozes… It's a thoroughly engaging ride! It's may not be in the same league as The Hunt for Red October, Das Boot or Crimson Tide (to name a few of the greats) – but I'd still find it hard to fathom someone not enjoying this well made deep sea thriller.
Starring: Jude Law, Ben Mendelsohn, David Threlfall and Scoot McNairy
Directed by: Kevin Macdonald (THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND and STATE OF PLAY)
Rated: R (for language throughout, some graphic images and violence)
Running time: 115 minutes
Studio description: A rogue submarine captain pulls together a misfit crew to go after a sunken treasure rumored to be lost in the depths of the Black Sea. As greed and desperation take control onboard their claustrophobic vessel, the increasing uncertainty of the mission causes the men to turn on each other to fight for their own survival. (C) Focus

The local Safeway runs a special every couple of months where they are $.99 per pound, and the spousal unit fills up the freezer. At some point you have no other choice than to cook them and eat them. I can think of a lot worse things that could happen…
