4-way Test
From the earliest days of the organization, Rotarians were concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives. One of the world's most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The Four-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as RI president) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy.
This 24-word test for employees to follow in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The Four-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways. It asks the following four questions:
"Of the things we think, say or do:
Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

“Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.'”
– Matthew 28: 18-20
Action – Offering – Obedience
“As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. ‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will send you out to fish for people.’ At once they left their nets and followed him. Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.”
– Matthew 4:18-22
Jesus said to the fishermen, “I will send you out to fish for people.” If Simon, Andrew, James and John did not left their boat immediately and followed Jesus, they would never be able to receive God’s promised blessings. All Christians know the importance of sharing the Gospel, but what is more important, is our action, offering and obedience.
Rexdale Chinese Alliance Church does not only do local outreach ministries, but sees the importance of overseas mission. This is because apostle Paul told us clearly that “I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.” (Romans 1:14)
Not only apostle Paul was, but we all are obligated to those who have not yet heard the Gospel. So, let us partner with the missionaries we support, and share the Gospel with our action, offering and obedience.
Missionaries We Sent Out
Pastor Henry & Wendy Chuang
Serving in East Asia
Henry and Wendy were both born in Taiwan, and immigrated to Canada when they were teenagers. After they started working in Toronto, they met at their home church’s Mandarin Young Career Fellowship in 1998. After 4 years of getting knowing each other, they got married in 2002.
Full time ministry, let alone being missionaries was the furthest thing on their minds once they had family and careers, but the Spirit did not stop His work. In 2009, God called Wendy during a mission conference and she responded with “Here am I. Send me”. (Isa 6:8) But Wendy also prayed to God that “Before you send me, send my husband first because he is the head”.
The very next year Henry encountered a “crisis” moment. He was diagnosed with a severe liver condition from a virus he contracted through vaccination in Taiwan during his elementary school days. The virus stayed dormant until then. Feeling powerless, and hopeless, Henry asked God to use whatever life he has remained on earth for the glory of His kingdom.
At the time, they just returned from a STM in Asia. They saw the darkness people were in despite of their economic prosperity. People did not know God and His salvation through Christ because no one was there to bring them the LIGHT. Soon after they started to prepare themselves in seminary and hoping one day God will use them in a cross-cultural ministry. God worked miracles and guided them step by step.
By God’s grace, they are sent by Rexdale Chinese Alliance Church, with their two boys Tim and Theo to Japan in the summer of 2016 as C&MA licensed clergies and missionaries. Their primary ministry focuses are the Japanese and the international students.
Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic and closure of boarders of Japan, they have been redeployed to Chiayi, Taiwan in 2020, to work with other missionaries in the church planting project.

Rev. Derek and Mrs. Chantal Chen
They were both born in North America — Derek in the U.S. and Chantal in Canada — but grew up in Asia — Derek in Taiwan and Chantal in Hong Kong. God crossed our paths when we left Asia to attend university in Chicago, and their similar cultural backgrounds drew them to each other.
Chantal was raised in a Christian household and trusted Christ at the age of 12. Derek grew up going to church, but did not understand the gospel until Peter Yoon, their Bible study leader in university (now serving with Ethnos Canada in Asia Pacific), took them chronologically through the Bible from creation to Christ. He also introduced them to tribal missions and impressed upon them God’s heart for every tongue and tribe to hear the gospel in their heart language.
After university, God led them both to serve with GoodSeed International, where Chantal was able to use her journalism training to write the book In-ká-hai: How Sweet It Is!—the true story of how the gospel dramatically transformed the lives of the Manjúi tribe in Paraguay.
After they got married in 2005, God brought them to Dallas Theological Seminary to be further equipped for ministry, then subsequently to Calgary, where Derek served as an assistant Mandarin pastor in our now sending church for three years. During that time God rekindled their hearts for tribal missions through the testimony of another Ethnos Canada missionary couple—Wayne and Gail Chen. They asked God to grant them the privilege of being directly involved in tribal church planting, and He’s been opening door after door ever since.
They finished our training with Emanate (Ethnos Canada’s missionary training program) in December 2015 and are currently ministering among the Tanguat people in Papua New Guinea. They’re super excited to be doing our part in making ready the Bride of Christ for His glorious return!

THE LUMBERJACK FEEDBACK
Interview: Sébastien Tarridec – Bass
Welcome! As this is your first interview for a Czech magazine (maybe?) please introduce yourself, and if possible, add a short THE LUMBERJACK FEEDBACK history, too. Why have you chosen name THE LUMBERJACK FEEDBACK? Would you like to tell me how it all began?
Hello! THE LUMBERJACK FEEDBACK began as a stoner rock band in 2008. Since the beginning, we are playing loud & low instrumental music. Band’s name comes from a discussion with a english teacher at the university, as we described him the music we were playing: “loud & low noises, like the chainsaw of a lumberjack in a dark & rainy forest”.
How did you get to the point where you are now ? Can you introduce your older records? How does the new album differ from your previous work?
We are hard workers, control freaks and perfectionists. We manage quiet everything by ourself, like recordings, artworks,etc… so let me tell you that it take time for us to release our first full-length. Since 2008, we’ve release a DIY demo, “Hand of Glory” EP, “Ausstellung” split cd with We all die (laughing) and a digital live EP “Noise in the Church” , recorded (both audio and video) live… in a church. Now it’s time for our first full lenght (CD digisleeve, digital and 12“ vinyl LP ).
Symbols of your band are two drummers and music without vocals. How you came to do this?
In 2012, after my brother Nicolas, former drummer of the band, part away from the band for few month, we began to work with a new drummer and when he express the desire to come back in the band, it was quiet a difficult choice and as our thirst for experiment is endless, we decided to try to work something interesting with two drummers.
Did you always played instrumental music? More expression possible?
Since the very beginning of the band, it was clear that the length and the mesmerizing feeling that came out from the tracks would led us to a very difficult search for a vocalist, as this music style as such of „clichés“ and we want to build our own sound. Instrumental music also puts the listener in a more active position, leaving a wide range of interpretation because there is no speech.
“Blackened Visions” is the name of your new album. Can you tell me something about final concept? Who is the man on the album cover? Is he the main person of all story? He look like Rob Zombie?
There is no global concept behind the album. It’s more like six different short movies, six stories. The character on the cover is the main character from our music video / short movie for the “Blackened Visions” track. It’s a kind of alchemist, turned crazy by his quest for immortality. It’s the graphic vision of the band for this track. I’m in charge of band’s artwork since the beginning and The cover of “Blackened Visions” came from some photos we’ve taken during the preproduction of the video, long time before we began working on the artwork.
What does the title “Blackned Visons” really mean? What’s driving force behind THE LUMBERJACK FEEDBACK and your most important influence while creating music?
„Blackened Visions“ came from the fact that the only the direction that we were focus at the beginning of the writing process was to give a „darker“ vision of what we’ve written in the pas, so “Blackened Visions” was quiet an evidence ! While we are created music, all is abour being all five together in our studio, jamming, catching the good ideas and spending hours on arrangements and making the song the most efficient. Finding the perfect balance between feeling and energy together.
How did the writing process work on the new album. Were the songs a gradual accumulation or did you write them at once?
As I explain in the previous question, our music came from jam in our practice room. No individual homemade demos… Some songs were written as once as ImereMortal that as been written, arranged and live recorded in less then an evening. Some are old stuff we have played live before, others have been written especially for the full-length. But it takes time to have a homogeneous feeling and sound that can makes all the tracks works together.
There was created a video (short movie is better word) to song “Blackened Visions”. You weren’t happy with your previous clip? Can you tell us about the video and its relationship to the album?
Our previous video was more a “live band” video. As it was the first video for the band, we’ve wanted to show the band in his purest form, as most of the people were discovering us. We have worked with the same director for “Blackened Visions” because we have total confidence in him, knowing how he work, and what we want to express. With “Blackened Visions” , we’ve wanted to fully express our cinematic view of music, without seeing the band. What can fit more than a short silent movie in the woods !
Your music is full of horror motives and dark elemntes. But what do you think about occultism? Is it theme for your band?
Music is our ritual ! Louuuud and catartic ritual. Come see us live …
How is Kaotoxin Records Records working for you?
Kaotoxin is based in our hometown, so it’s quiet easy to work with Nico, the label manager. We know him since 4 years as a musical activist with his label and the GrindFest/Kaotoxin Fest. He came to our shows few times, meet us and when he heard we have recorded au EP (“Hand of Glory” ), it just take a second to this music fanatic to say “let’s do it guys”! One EP and a split CD later, let the story continue!
Is it easy to have a metal band in France? How is metal scene seen in your country? I know a lot of great black metal bands from France, but what other genres…? Are you familiar with the metal scene in France?
Loads of (good) bands, but as Metal is not a mainstream music style, no need to says that it’s a hard job to „keep the faith“ (copyrigth M. BON JOVI). All genres are quiet present. You got „war machines“ bands such as GOJIRA, LOUDBLAST, and DAGOBA and tons of really interesting bands in black metal ( BLUT AUS NORD, SVART CROWN, ARKOHON INFAUSTUS, DEATHSPELL OMEGA, …) but also Death Metal (AGRESSOR, BENIGHTED, OTARGOS,…) and Doom/Sludge/Stoner bands such as LOVE SEX MACHINE, MONARCH, HANGMAN’S CHAIR, GLOWSUN…
What are you currently listening to? What bands in your country or the world stage can be considered as your greatest influences?
As a band, we’re listening a wide range of bands such as MASTODON, GOJIRA, NEUROSIS, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, KICKBACK, BIRDS IN ROW,… For myself, I listen to WOVENHAND, BEASTMILK, NIN, DEFTONES, THE CURE, … lot of Rock in fact and for the Metal part, I’m more in dark bands such as THE AMENTA, TERRA TENEBROSA, WILL HAVEN, AmenRa, THE BODY, EYE OF SOLITUDE… All this bands can be considered as influences at a personnal point of view, but if we have to pick a few once for our music, it could be NEUROSIS, SUNN o))), PELICAN & … MAYHEM. 🙂
Do you already have any thoughts about the new material?
We already have some really enthusiastic feedbacks about the new material, from medias and fans. “Blackened Visions” is a full-length you have to listen several times to get all the small parts & feelings we have put in it. It’s a long and deep dark travel. It’s the main feedback we have about this record and it’s reassuring that people take the time to listen and learn in depth because we have spent so much time to make each track interesting.
Thank you for the interview, and if you wish to tell anything else, please, do it. All the best and good luck in the future!
Thanks too! Hope to come back to support “Blackened Visions” in Czech Republic, as we played in Praha three years ago during our Hand of Glory Tour. ’till then, go on Kaotoxin shop or our website, listen to our new album and if you like it, get it ! (and listen it at maximum volume !!!!!)

Home Iran cities kerman
The name Kerman is probably derived from its inhabitants, the Germanioi, mentioned by Herodotus. The Town is situated close to Dasht-e-Lut desert from which it is separated by a range of mountains. Although this region is situated in a desert, its pistachio nuts are famous around the world. The most well-known crafts of the region are the local leather industry and silk embroidery. The main highlights include:
Ganj-Ali Khan Ensemble, located at a wonderfully frescoed intersection of two main lines of arcades, with caravanserais, a teahouse, and a traditional hammam, today transformed into a museum
Shrine of Shah Nematollah Vali: built in 1436 and embellished and extended by Shah Abbas, set in a delightful garden evoking great harmony, and Iran’s most splendid Islamic monument outside Isfahan.
Jabbalieha: mysterious, octagonal stone structure with a brick dome, whose function is unknown, in a picturesque setting at the foot of the mountains.
Rayen Citadel: a residential fortress and the largest mud structure of the wider region comprising thick imposing outer walls, public quarter, gymnasium, mosque, barracks, and governor’s quarter.
Jami‘ Mosque of Kerman: the well-preserved 14th century monument with four lofty Iwans of shimmering blue tiles and without minarets, extensively modernized during the Safavid period and later.
Bam and its Cultural Landscape: (World Heritage Site), a vivid impression of a fortified medieval town, a testimony to the development of a settlement known for its underground irrigation canals (quanat).
Shazdeh Garden: an attractive, rectangular green oasis and one of the finest examples of historical Persian garden style, ornamented with cascades, a monumental entrance and a residential pavilion
Shrine of Moshtaq Ali Shah: an attractive mausoleum dedicated to a Sufi mystic renowned for his singing and ability with the setar, a musical instrument with three cords.

DENVER (AP) Artturi Lehkonen, Andrew Cogliano and Alex Newhook scored against former teammate Darcy Kuemper and the surging Colorado Avalanche held off the Washington Capitals 3-2 on Tuesday night to give coach Jared Bednar his franchise-record 266th victory.
Logan O'Connor added two assists, Nathan MacKinnon had an assist for his 700th point and Alexandar Georgiev made 37 saves in the Avs' season-best sixth straight victory. They moved into third place in the Central Division, one point ahead of Minnesota.
Bednar, coaching his 500th game for Colorado, improved to 266-185-49 and passed former Quebec Nordiques boss Michel Bergeron for the most coaching victories in franchise history.
"I'm glad it's here and gone so we can stop talking about it," Bednar said. "We didn't play our best game tonight, so I"m just happy we were able to get the two points."
Alex Ovechkin returned from an injury to score his 31st goal for Washington. Conor Sheary also scored and Kuemper stopped 23 shots in his first game in Denver since helping the Avalanche win the Stanley Cup in June.
The crowd stood and applauded after a first-period video tribute for Kuemper, who won 37 games in the regular season and 10 more in the playoffs.
The Avs chose not to re-sign Kuemper, who then inked a five-year deal with the Capitals in July.
"It was pretty tough," a choked-up Kuemper said of the tribute. "It was a lot of mixed emotions. It was pretty special being back."
He had his moments against his former team, including nifty glove saves against Jacob MacDonald and Lehkonen in the second period to keep it a one-goal game. But Newhook's goal with 4:21 left in the second made it 3-1.
The depleted Capitals dominated the third period but still lost for the fifth time in seven games as Georgiev came up with several big saves.
"It's been a really good stretch of defense for us," Georgiev said.
Ovechkin's one-timer at 9:44 of the third was his 811th goal after he missed his first game of the season Saturday with a lower-body injury.
"I don't want to say I was 100%, but I was able to play," Ovechkin said.
Washington was without T.J. Oshie, who left to be with his wife for the birth of their fourth child. And Nicklas Backstrom was a late scratch with a non-COVID illness.
Then Tom Wilson exited in the second period after blocking a shot and underwent an X-ray between periods.
"Right now he's day-to-day with a lower-body (injury)," coach Peter Laviolette said.
The Avalanche, who haven't trailed during their win streak, solved Kuemper at 8:57 of the first when MacKinnon absorbed Dmitry Orlov's big hit and fed Lehkonen for his 15th goal and sixth in six games.
Cogliano redirected Kurtis MacDermid's shot 2:04 into the second to make it 2-0. Sheary cut the lead in half when he tipped in Martin Fehervary's shot for his 12th goal just over two minutes later.
HE BROKE THE CUP
It also marked the return of Washington's Nicolas Aube-Kubel, who had 22 points in 67 games for the Avs in 2021-22, He's remembered for dropping and denting the Cup during the on-ice celebration.
"It's part of my journey here," a smiling Aube-Kubel said of his fumble, adding the season was "the best time of my life."
NOTES: Avs D Cale Makar (upper body) practiced Monday and took part in the morning skate, but missed his fourth straight game. ... Avs W Anton Blidh cleared waivers and skated on the fourth line. ... Aliaksei Protas centered Washington's third line in his first NHL action since Jan. 5 and was robbed by Georgiev in the first period. ... The Capitals have only four games left outside the Eastern time zone.
Capitals: Host Pittsburgh on Thursday night.
Avalanche: Host Anaheim on Thursday night.

People would be more inclined to call A-Plus Plumbers rather than W&W Plumbing Services, for example. But that is all changed. Phone books are a thing of the past. Forget A-Z Listings – the companies that succeed now are those that top social media feeds. To be found, you want to be on social networking. And among the most powerful social networking platforms is Instagram. That is because Instagram has introduced a feature named Stories.

They capture your ideas as they occur and allow you to collate your distinctive content critical for any Influencer.
So, it is no surprise that stories is demonstrating to be an essential brand-building instrument for Influencers. Recent data demonstrates that while Facebook gets the maximum number of members in Australia, Instagram is the fastest-growing social media. Since tales premiered, there has been a decrease in Snap chat use previously the only social networking platform that enabled users to post video son the run. This means it acts like a Search engine, which means you are more likely to turn up in search results when someone is searching on the internet for a company like yours.
As a polished branding tool.
As a spontaneous capture tool.
Videos permit you to share the moments of your day as they occur. They give your audience a special insight into who you are, what you do and how you can assist them. Additionally, it shows them that you are a real individual, not merely a message. Wholehearted Studio’s Hayley Jenkins is another entrepreneur who uses Instagram exceptionally well. Her videos and images are more stylised and knowingly crafted, ideal for creating her photography business’ brand.
Be cautious, however, of trying for perfection. Entrepreneurs often have a Fear of seeming inauthentic or showy. Social networking can be a real struggle for them, so they play it safe and do nothing. Consequently, their opponents appear at the top of the viewers’ social media feeds. They are the individuals who make an impact and get the leads.

Gun Rights: Moral Panic, Loopholes, Beefing Up School Security for Administrators
April 19, 2013 by Tom 1 Comment
Three Wise Men and a Virgin?
Jim Taranto writes at the Wall Street Journal that Gabby Giffords is at the head of the parade of “moral panic” as it pertains to Obama’s efforts at gun control.
Anger still pervades those wanting to see some kind of anti Second Amendment action regardless of what it might accomplish. Taranto takes some of that misguided anger and breaks down specific comments made by former congresswoman Gabby Giffords. One of the funnier lines that Taranto writes goes like this:
The no-true-Scotsman move. “These senators have heard from their constituents–who polls show overwhelmingly favored expanding background checks,” Giffords writes. She ignores the possibility that those polls are flawed and that the senators are hearing a different message from their constituents. Then she qualifies her claim of public unanimity: “I am asking every reasonable American to help me tell the truth . . .” See what she did there? (The switcheroo to every reasonable American reminds us of a probably apocryphal tale about Adlai Stevenson. A woman is supposed to have said to him, “Governor, you have the support of every thinking American,” to which he replied: “But madam, I need a majority.”)
Giffords also speaks as though from fact that the majority of Americans want universal background checks before gun purchases. According to Jim Taranto, Giffords says:
“These senators have heard from their constituents–who polls show overwhelmingly favored expanding background checks,”
I have spoken with many people over the past few weeks about this background check issue. Most rational people understand that all polls, regardless of who makes them, are designed to achieve desired results. If you think they are not, you are the reason polls continue as a tool.
There is much left unsaid and either misunderstood or deliberately left out of these so-called polls that show the majority of Americans want background checks on guns. Some have claimed as many as 90% of Americans wish this. Really? Perhaps I can easily get a handle on a poll that said that 90% or more of Americans don’t what guns getting into the hands of criminals and mentally whacked out people. A lesser percentage of people might respond to a generic question about background checks in a favorable way. But few people are in favor of background checks that seriously overstep the bounds of privacy and the rights to that. How many people polled had read the proposed bills? How many people polled were asked specific questions that revealed their desires of what should be found in background checks? I’m guessing none and none.
Can’t we fix the broken parts of background checks now with better information on the mentally ill? Are we more interested in protecting the rights of the mentally ill and not of lawful citizens?
I can casually ask anybody on the street if they wanted guns in the hands of crooks and mentally ill people and the answer is a no-brainer. Ask them if they favored background checks that involved a retention of private data or a registry and the outcome is vastly different.
A “common sense” anti rights bill today becomes……?
Mike Lee explains why he opposed the Manchin/Toomey gun control bill.
The Toomey-Manchin amendment admirably attempted to carve out certain protections for gun owners, but today’s carve-outs are tomorrow’s loopholes. The current “gun show loophole” was itself once considered a legitimate carve-out that protected certain private sales.
Working Toward Increased Safety for Kids…..or NOT
At first read, I thought how nice it was that at in some areas efforts are underway to actually accomplish tasks that would make our schools safer from deranged idiots with guns. And then a couple of lines I found in the Morning Sentinel about a study approved by the Maine Education Association that would look at ways to increase safety in school buildings. Check this out:
The study, to be performed by the Maine Department of Education, would look at a wide range of physical measures to improve security at schools.
They include upgraded doors, walls and windows and even “ballistic protection” for walls around administrative areas in schools.(emboldening added)
Hmmmmmm! Is that where the kids hang out?

NEFARIOUS!
Day 73 and the lie continues! No executive orders on gun control published on the White House website.
Pot, Meet Kettle!
In what can only be described as the most shameless act of the pot calling the kettle black, President Barack Obama appeared before a group of family members of supposed Newtown, Connecticut’s Sandy Hook School shooting victims and attempted to shame the country for not passing any gun control laws since the mass killings.
“We need everybody to remember how we felt 100 days ago and make sure that what we said at that time wasn’t just a bunch of platitudes, that we meant it.”
73 days ago, Barack Obama, the ring leader of all the gun control platitudes, as he seems now to accuse others of using, went beyond platitudes and engaged in outright lying, cheating, deceit, fear mongering and exploiting children, with a goal of creating hostility and deepening the divide among the American people. It appears he’s up to his old tricks.
Consider the intestinal fortitude of a man, so accustomed to lying it is commonplace, brazen enough to stand before millions of people in an attempt to shame them from NOT GETTING SOMETHING DONE about gun control! Think about it for a minute. This inept, fraudulent human being, staged the biggest dog and pony show, promising millions of Americans he had created 23 executive orders on gun control and pretended to be signing them before the public. What the public saw were 23 ideas he and his administration had come up with lacking details and nothing published and/or made available for public scrutiny. So, what are we to believe? Do the executive orders exist and he is hiding them? Or, has this Kabuki Theater closed the curtain, perhaps only waiting for an encore when Congress fails to produce some kind of assassination on the Second Amendment or he needs votes from the gun hater groups?
His act is really quite pathetic.
Readers of this blog should understand that President Obama is intentionally, I believe, crossing and muddying lines between two distinct issues. One, is somehow the President is indicating that because Congress has not passed strict gun control laws, people no longer feel sorry for the victims and their families of Sandy Hook. This is far from reality.
The second and what should be separate issue, is whether or not any proposed gun control laws will actually do anything to make kids and/or Americans safer. The idea of making laws because we might feel sympathetic is pathetic.
Angus King: Michael Bloomberg’s Puppet
Many residents of Maine knew, even before Sen. Angus King took the U.S. Senate seat from retiring RINO Olympia Snowe, much, if not all, of the success behind King’s campaign came from Michael Bloomberg and his political action committee. And so, as people continue to fail to see and want to see, politics is more about posterity than “we the people.”
The Maine Wire is reporting that the NRA is targeting King because of his votes in the Senate against the Second Amendment. The Maine Wire reminds readers that when Angus King was governor of Maine, he was endorsed by the Sportsman’s Alliance of Maine, as King presented himself as an “outdoorsman.”
Test the wind, make the costume, and become whatever is necessary to get a vote. Then proceed to screw the people over. That’s politics as usual.
Filibuster For Show
Senators Paul, Cruz and Lee say they plan to filibuster, if necessary, any attempt by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to introduce legislation that goes against the Second Amendment. And this effort will……………?

Bulgaria's most enchanting mountain range warrants drive-thru in right season
The Rhodope mountains have an aura of an enchanted place no matter whether you visit in summer, autumn or winter. But in springtime there is something in the Bulgarian south that makes you feel more relaxed, almost above the ground. It could be the clean air and the smell of firs, the magnificence of the green peaks fading away in the distance or the picturesque traditional villages that are so often depopulated, a bitter-sweet sight. It could be the sublime nature of gorges, river meanders, oddly shaped rocks, or the locals with their trademark friendliness and mesmerising music.
Analysing the mystery of Rhodope's charm is useless, the time will be better spent travelling the mountain's winding roads, exploring its ancient Thracian rock shrines, fortresses, mosques, villages, music festivals, stories and legends.
Blossoming trees at the now completely abandoned village of Dyadovtsi, near Ardino
Spring is the perfect time to indulge in Rhodope pleasure. Covered with fresh greenery, the mountain slopes exhibit all the existing nuances of green: emerald new leaves shine under the sun, the firs are almost black, the meadows glow, the mosses are intensely green against the grey of rocks. The rivers, the streams, the small waterfalls are white and unruly with the the flow of snow water. The sun is still gentle and the sky is deep blue. The natural world is abuzz: bees fly, birds sing even at night as if their lives depend on it. The flocks of cattle and sheep look content, too, as the days of boring hay are over and the fresh grass is all for them to feast on.
In spring, the Rhodope becomes the epitome of reviving life, a marvel to experience and to relive year after year.

VILLAGE WHOSE CHURCH STAYS OPEN
The villages in Bulgaria that are abuzz with life are generally located around cities in the plains, like those surrounding Plovdiv.

Zhou Hongyi, Chairman of 360 delivered a speech lasting about two hours (Source: 360)
Chinese Cybersecurity Giant 360 to Cooperate with NETA Auto to Make Electric Cars
May 12, 2021, 15:31pm 2021/05/12 20:07:19 Lucia Si
Chinese Internet security giant 360 announced on Tuesday a new partnership with NETA Auto, suggesting they will follow the philosophy of “making cars for the people”.
Founded in 2005, 360 is the largest provider of Internet and mobile security products in China, having launched such items as 360 Total Security, 360 Mobile Security, 360 Security browsers and others. In the automobile field, the company has rolled out hardware-related products like data recorder and streaming media rearview mirror.
At the communication meeting on Tuesday, Zhou Hongyi, Chairman of 360, promised that the company would be a strategic investor of NETA Auto in a long-term and comprehensive way.
NETA Auto, owned by HOZON Auto, launched three models of new-energy cars including NETA N01, NETA V and NETA U, with its sales volume reaching 15,091 units in 2020.
The EV brand said on April 26 it had initiated its Series D financing led by 360 Group, which was intended to raise roughly 3 billion yuan ($466 million). 360 Group is expected to become its second-largest shareholder upon completion of the funding.
At the Shanghai Auto Show held in April, NETA Auto launched another four models – NETA UPro, NETA S and Girls’ Edition of NETA V, with a price tag of between 99,800 yuan to 159,800 yuan ($15,511 to $24,836). From January to April this year, the firm has sold 11,458 vehicles, ranking fourth among electric vehicles makers, behind Nio , Li Auto and Xpeng .
NETA Auto and 360 will jointly set up an organization with a view on getting involved in the upgrading and safety insurance businesses for automobiles.
The vast number of users connected with 360 will participate in the design and review of NETA’s products, a plus for expanding its market share.
“New energy vehicle is a complete revolution in the traditional automobile industry. The essence of this revolution is equal rights in science and technology, meaning that everyone can enjoy intelligent driving systems with great driving performance, enough space, and human-vehicle interaction. Adhering to the philosophy of making cars for the people, our company aims at low-budget vehicles of about 100,000 yuan ($14,880) to meet the needs of the majority of users,” Zhou said.
Since the beginning of this year, Internet giants have been enthusiastic about entering the smart car sector.
In January, Baidu established a smart car company Jidu, with Geely Holding Group as its strategic partner. In March, Xiaomi announced it would set up a wholly-owned subsidiary to operate the smart electric vehicle business. In April, Huawei entered into partnerships with three automakers to establish sub-brands for intelligent cars.
“360 would not miss this precious opportunity for change,” Zhou said.

Capcpom Presents – Gamest’s Greatest Typos
Posted by Kurt Kalata on November 29, 2017
Gamest was one of the many video game magazines that ran through the 80s up until 1999, primarily created for arcade enthusiasts, but it was also known for its many, many typos. The most amusing of these was actually canonized by Capcom.
In the January 1993 issue, in reference to one of Zangief’s special moves, they made two ridiculous errors in the same sentence. First, “Zangief” (ザンギエフ) was misspelled as “Zangyura” (ザンギュラ), and secondly, the name of the move, which should have been “Super Lariat” (スーパー ラリアット) but ended up as “Super Uriajjou” (スーパーウリアッ上). That move name is almost complete gibberish, primarily because it ends the word with a kanji character rather than katakana.
These typos do make more sense when you consider how similar the characters look:
エ→ュ、- “e” -> “yu”
フ→ラ、- “fu” -> “ra”
ラ→ウ – “ra” -> “u”
ト→上 – “to” -> kanji meaning “up”, read as “jou” or “ue”
Gamest actually made the same typo AGAIN when sticking his name in a character poll.
It didn’t help that the name was actually wrong, since it changed from “Super Lariat” in the location test to “High Speed Double Lariat” in the final version, though that wasn’t their fault.
Anyway, Dmitri from the Darkstalkers games has an attack called Midnight Bliss, which will temporarily change his opponent into different forms. In Capcom Fighting Evolution, if you use this attack on Zangief, he’ll turn until a little Russian girl, seen above. According to the (now defunct) official website for the game, this is Zangyura-chan, named after the famous typo, with a design based on the Russian cartoon character Cheburashka, a monkey-like creature.
This is probably the most famous Gamest typo, but there have been many others, of course. One of the most amusing is in issue 193, in reference to Sega’s SCUD Race, where the sentence reads “Hit the accelerator full throttle here, Indian to the right!” (ここでアクセル全開、 インド人を右に) The misspelled word should have been “handle” (ハンドル), the word typically used for “steering wheel”, rather than “Indian” (インド人), so it’s meant to say “turn the handle to the right!” (Verbs are sometimes omitted in Japanese when the meaning is obvious, though here the ambiguity adds to the comedy.) This has since become a Japanese meme in its own right. Sega actually paid tribute to the phrase in their 2015 rhythm game Chunithm, with a song called “The wheel to the right” (written in English).
In this image, on the right is a sign that reads “Dhalsim”. An Indian to the right. Hah!
Here’s another one:
This here is the Ryu Final manga, that was published in Gamest – not even the comics were free from errors. Right at the end, in the final chapter, Ryu says:
確かみてみろ！
Tashika mitemiro! – “Try to makp sure of it!”
CORRECT:
確かめてみろ！
Tashika metemiro! – “Try to make sure of it!”
This is famous because this was supposed to be a dramatic reveal but instead it’s just ruined with the typo.
That’s not the only one: there was even a typo right on the first page, when introducing the author:
中平正彦宣誓執筆！ – Written by Nakahira Masahiko-Sensei (as in “oath”, the word is pronounced the same but the kanji and the meaning are totally different)
中平正彦先生執筆！ – Written by Nakahira Masahiko-Sensei! (as in “master”, general term of respect)
The joke is that Ryu Final was the manga that began with a typo and ended with a typo, thus making the circle complete. These errors were fixed for the compiled tankoubon release, at least. It was also eventually released in English in 2007 by Udon, though this book is long out of print.
Other infamous cases found through their various magazines, mooks, and other published material are when they referred to the Capcom action game Senjou no Ookami (戦場の狼, “Wolf of the Battlefield”, known in English as Commando) as “Senjou no Saru” (戦場の猿, “Monkey of the Battlefield”), and “Crouching Fierce Punch” (しゃがみ大パンチ) as “Crouching Large Panties” (しゃがみ大パンツ). (“大” technically means “large” or “strong” but in the context of Street Fighter II moves it’s translated as “fierce”). One time they spelled Street Fighter Zero 3 as “ZStreet Fighter Ero 3” (“ero” of course being short for “erotic”, an English word typically used even in Japanese to refer to porn.)
They also misspelled Garou Densetsu (餓狼伝説), the Japanese name for Fatal Fury, meaning “Legend of the Hungry Wolf”, as both Gashi Densetsu (餓死伝説), meaning “Starvation Legend” and Kiga Densetsu (飢餓伝説), meaning “Hunger Legend”. You can even buy a Starvation Legend t-shirt if you want, along with some of the other titles mangled by the magazine, including Choku Samurai Spirits (直サムライスピリッツ, “Straight Samurai Spirits”) instead of Shin Samurai Spirits (真サムライスピリッツ “True Samurai Spirits”, the title of Samurai Shodown 2), or Samurai Spirits Amakusa System (サムライスピリッツ天草システム) instead of Samurai Spirits Amakusa Kourin (サムライスピリッツ 天草降臨, “Amakusa’s Descent”, translated as “Amakusa’s Revenge” in English, the fourth game in the series). Some more famous typos are listed here.
Back in these days, the manuscripts were typically handwritten, so the editors of the magazine blamed the department that converted the text for the magazine for messing it up. But in general, it didn’t help that the contributors were typically gamers with no real editorial experience, and the people converting the text may not have had any idea about video game lingo to make sure it was correct. Plus, it was also apparent that no one actually proofread much of anything before the magazines went out the door.
Thanks to Hanenashi Error for his help with some of these translations!

Medical sources in Kufur Qaddoum, near the northern West Bank city of Qalqilia, said that dozens suffocated after inhaling gas fired by the army when the soldiers attacked their weekly protest demanding Israel to reopen the main road of their village that the army closed 13 years ago.
Morad Eshteiwy, coordinator of the Popular Committee against the Wall in Qalqilia, said dozens of soldiers attacked the nonviolent protesters from different sides, and fired gas bombs, concussion grenades, rubber-coated metal bullets, and several rounds of live ammunition.
The protesters marched denouncing the ongoing Israeli violations and crimes against the Palestinians people, Israel’s refusal to release the fourth phase of veteran detainees, and its ongoing and escalating illegitimate settlement construction and expansion activities.
In Bethlehem, several Palestinians suffered the effects of tear gas inhalation after the soldiers attacked the weekly protests at the northern entrance of the city, near the illegal Annexation Wall in the area.
The protesters, including political leaders and representatives several organizations, marched close to the Caritas Hospital, and held Friday prayers before marching towards roadblock #300, north of Bethlehem, carrying Palestinian flags, and posters, and chanted for the liberation of Palestine and the release of all political prisoners held by the Israeli occupation army.
The soldiers attacked the protesters, fired gas bombs and concussion grenades at them, and violently assaulted several journalists.
Also in Bethlehem, soldiers assaulted nonviolent protesters holding their weekly protest against the Annexation Wall and settlements in the al-Ma’sara village, and prevented them from reaching their orchards.
In Ramallah, dozens of Palestinians were injured, some with live rounds, after the army assaulted nonviolent protesters near the Ofer Israeli military prison.
At least two journalists were injured, one of them, Mohammad Basman Yassin, a cameraman from Bil’in nearby village, was seriously injured after being shot in the chest.

CHACO Province, Argentina: Indigenous Civil Jury is about to be real
Elizabeth González, leader of the Qom Nation
Chaco province is a pioneer in the world in extending the trial by jury to civil matters. Until now, only criminal cases were included. Argentina highlights a historic step for access to justice.
It is a dream that is about to come true. And that will change reality forever.
One of the meetings of the consultation, March 2020.
The pandemic delayed the process.
Chaco is getting closer to full implementation of an Indigenous trial by jury. An important meeting is scheduled for tomorrow. This meeting is aimed at drafting the set of rules for the consultation of the three Indigenous Peoples of Chaco: Wichí, Qom, and Moqoit.
The meeting plans to begin at 4:00 p.m. in the House of History and Culture of the Bicentennial of Fontana.
The jury bill in four langauges:
Qom, Wichí, Moqoit and Spanish
As in the criminal jurisdiction, the move towards Indigenous civil jury represents an unprecedented event in Argentina and Latin America (global impact). Although there are countries, such as Bolivia, where the Judiciary foresees a kind of splitting for those who have an indigenous worldview, the Chaco model is integrated into the institutional framework (historical day).
The Chaco civil jury law has an indisputable world class level, since it simultaneously regulates completely innovative aspects for Argentine civil procedural law:
1) It establishes a civil jury of twelve members, presided over by a judge who will instruct the jury on the law, and a general unanimous verdict. A special verdict may also be rendered. The jury will try class actions, consumer rights collective disputes, tort cases of over half a million pesos and collective environmental and land disputes.
2) Establishes by law the civil adversarial litigation in a mandatory oral and public trial.
3) The jury will have gender equality. The jury will be composed of six women and six men.
4) Indigenous jury: If the plaintiff and the defendant belong to the Wichí, Moqoit or Qom Indigenous Peoples, the twelve jurors will be of that ethnic group.
5) Provides both a discovery hearing and a case management hearing.
2019, discussing the indigenous jury
We present here invitation videos in each official language. The invitation card (PDF) mentions a constitutional requirement: that the consultation is contemplated in Convention 169 of the International Labor Organization ( ACT 24,071). This is important, since on several occasions acts, court decisions and executive orders were drafted that directly affected the life of Indigenous communities, without respecting the right to consultation.
QOM PEOPLE
WICHI PEOPLE
MOQOIT PEOPLE

The Farce of Bhimshakti and Shivshakti
Wednesday 20 July 2011, by Anand Teltumbde
History repeats itself, the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce.
The famous quotation of Marx from The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte, which comes in reference to the rule of Napoleon I and thereafter of his nephew, Louis Napoleon (Napoleon III), actually runs as follows: “Hegel remarks some-where that all great world-historic facts and personages appear, so to speak, twice. He forgot to add: the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce.” What if it repeated a third time and a fourth time or keeps repeating thereafter? Hegel or Marx did not envisage such a hilarious situation to comment on. In reference to the alliance between the Ambedkarite Dalits and Shiv Sena, if Marx had known these two entities, he would have exclaimed, “the first time as farce and then repeated as bigger and bigger farce”.
Opposite Poles
Indeed, if one is forced to think of an antonym of the Ambedkarite Dalits, one would not get a better answer than the Shiv Sena. If the Ambed-karite Dalit is conceived in an organisational sense to adhere to Ambedkar’s ideology, the Shiv Sena would come as its perfect opposite. Ambedkar was a quintessential democrat; the Shiv Sena is prototypical fascist; Ambedkar was contemptuous of Hitler and Mussolini; the Shiv Sena is known to be the admirer of the Nazi dictator. Ambedkar stood for protection of minorities; the Shiv Sena has consistently ridiculed it as pampering and actively harassed them to the extent of executing some of the worst communal riots. Ambedkar believed in a constitutional regime and gave this country a Constitution; the Shiv Sena often scoffed at it publicly. Ambedkar severely criticised Hinduism for its ideological structural inequities; the Shiv Sena not only extols Hinduism but also publicly advocates its most aggressive version, Hindutva, which Ambedkar had foreseen as a disaster for India. Ambedkar without under-mining the importance of religion advocated secularism; the Shiv Sena openly misused religion to polarise people. Ambedkar ultimately stood for “liberty, equality and fraternity”, saying that it defined his social philosophy; the Shiv Sena’s actions are ostensibly or declaredly premised on differential liberty, inequality and hatred. Looked at from any angle and ideologically, these two organi-sations may stand as the opposite poles.
This opposition was not even camouflaged. The Shiv Sena in its own fascist rhetorical style did not spare even Babasaheb Ambedkar from its ridicule. It has never hidden its hatred for the Ambedkarite Dalits, ostensibly to consolidate all Dalit castes other than the Mahars under its fold. It is only after the realisation that this attitude might backfire by hurting the Mahars in its ranks, it moderated it and presented itself as the admirer of Ambedkar in competition with any other electoral party. Of course, its history is fraught with instances of physical confrontation with the Ambedkarite Dalits. In the Worli riots of 1974, it fought bitter street battles against the Dalit youth who had just organised themselves into Dalit Panthers, brutally martyring Bhagwat Jadhav. It spearheaded the opposition to renaming the Marathwada University after Babasaheb Ambedkar, for which Dalits had launched a massive agitation in the State. Many Dalits were raped and murdered; their properties destroyed by its cadre. It was the Shiv Sena which created the infamous Riddles controversy, actively opposing publication of Dr Ambedkar’s writings on Hinduism. It is only when the Ambedkarite Dalits got united over the issue that the Shiv Sena had backtracked its position and struck a compromise. It has been always opposed to reservations, which are identified with Dalits, and particularly the Ambedkarite Dalits, as its originator and beneficiary. During the Sena-BJP rule in Maharashtra, 11 innocent Dalits were massacred in police firing in Ramabainagar. The government had doggedly protected the Sub-Inspector who was responsible for the murders. The saga of its misdeeds against the Ambedkarite Dalits can really go on.
Not a Tragedy
Given the history of political opportunism of the Dalit leaders, it was no more a tragedy when Namdeo Dhasal, that fiery petrel of the revolu-tionary idiom of yesteryears, joined the Shiv Sena’s bandwagon in the mid-1990s. Nothing much happened to Dhasal, except for occasional denouncements by Dalits; he continued to be the leader of his outfit and the darling of the so- called Leftists of Mumbai and elsewhere. There-after, significant numbers of activists belonging to the Republican Party of India (RPI) had joined the Sena in Pune, Satara and Aurangabad. In fact, though faded in public memory, even before Dhasal’s temerity, the RPI itself had tried the electoral communion with the Sena in the local elections way back in the 1960s. (?) But when in 2003, the Shiv Sena’s Executive President, Uddhav Thackeray, mooted the idea of uniting Bhimshakti and Shivshakti on the eve of the State Assembly elections, it created consternation in the media. It was the late Arun Kamble, who along with Ramdas Athawale had propped up through the ashes of the original idea of Panthers what they called the Bharatiya Dalit Panthers, but was reduced to nobody in Dalit politics by then, had organised the function. At that time Ramdas Athawale had famously stated that the Shiv Sena giving up its Hindutva ideology would be the precondition for such a unity. The idea did not fly off then beyond the posters and hoardings. Eventually, Bhimshakti was monopolised by Chandrakant Handore, and he tied it to the Congress in exchange of a Ministership.
That statement of Athawale was just a ploy to make the NCP-Congress realise the conse-quence of ignoring him. He was frustrated enough for not having been given a ministerial berth at the Centre. In the next election, he was given the seat but was simultaneously seen that he was defeated. It was clear that for the NCP he had outgrown his utility and could well be dispensed with. Athawale was picked up by Sharad Pawar from the streets and put into the ministerial bungalow in the 1990s to neutralise the threatening independence of Prakash Ambedkar. He let Athawale grow while deci-mating whatever remained of the independent Dalit voice in Maharashtra. Having accomplished the latter goal, Athawale or for that matter any Dalit leader could no more bargain; they could stay only at the NCP’s terms. It is at this point the farce began. The other leaders of the RPI had apparently not been part of the deal with the Shiv Sena or perhaps they had assessed better prospects in staying with the NCP-Congress, taking Athwale’s place. Jogendra Kawade had been most vocal castigating the alliance in the name of departure from the Phule-Ambedkarite ideology. He accused Athawle of joining hands with the Hindutva forces, forgetting his own somersaults and communion with the very saffron band not in a very distant past. When the wounds of the Ramabainagar massacre inflicted by the Sena-BJP combine were still oozing, Kawade had joined the saffron brigade and actively canvassed for Kirit Somaiya in the 2009 elections in the same Ramabainagar. Indeed, the nakedness of all Dalit leaders gets exposed in the electoral hamam!
Why did the Shiv Sena, which has never concealed its hatred for the Ambedkarite Dalits, take the U-turn and extend its hand of friendship to Athawale? The answer is not difficult to seek. As the feud between Uddhav and Raj Thackeray simmered, the Shiv Sena needed to supplement its eroding vote-base with the Ambedkarite Dalits, in the particular context of the Congress making Sushil Kumar Shinde, a Chambhar by caste, as the first ever Dalit Chief Minister. The Shiv Sena’s casteist calculation could inform it that the Mahars would construe as their marginalisation under the Congress and may rethink aligning with it.
Over the last few years the need of the Shiv Sena and the disgruntlement of Athwale have only grown to reach a point of precipitation into this kind of unholy alliance. On the eve of the elections to the Mumbai Corporation to be held in 2012, with the growing electoral threat from the MNS, the Shiv Sena badly needs to fortify its position in Mumbai, which, notwithstanding its strength elsewhere, remains its crucial stronghold. It needs to hold on to it at any cost. There is nothing in its strategic option that it could try except for wooing Athawale. On the other hand, Athawale, having tasted the meat of political power, does not have much option in the State politics to try out an alliance with any other combine than the Shiv Sena-BJP, which could well win the next elections with the incumbency factor, given the scam-studded misgovernance of the Congress.
Questionable Consequence
It is a moot question whether this alliance will really cause the desired Dalit swing in its favour. While there are noises being created against this alliance in the name of ideology, the fact remains that ideology has been the fluidest aspect of Dalit politics. Anything could be the ideology if it could be shown to have the approval of Babasaheb Ambedkar. Whether it was the early desertions of the RPI by the likes of the Bhandares and Rupwates or the later co-option pull by the Congress or the samarasata allurements of the Sangh Parivar, Ambedkar was duly invoked by the opportunists to shower his ideological blessings. They would argue that while calling the Congress as the burning house, Ambedkar himself had accepted its support to reach the Constituent Assembly and thereafter get a ministerial berth in the first post-independence all-party government headed by Jawaharlal Nehru. The combination of two vague things—Ambedkar’s ideology and the interests of Dalits—has justified any and every act of opportunism of the Dalit leaders. It has long lost its salience in voting for this or that party. The new generation of Dalits, which does not have this ideological appeal and do not carry the past baggage of bitterness with the Shiv Sena, is overridingly concerned over what brings them maximum material benefit. Their attitude therefore would be to put stakes on the winning horse.
No sooner than this alliance is announced, the Congress has almost succeeded in hollowing the State BJP by buying off Gopinath Munde, one of its senior leaders, as they did earlier with Chhagan Bhujbal and Narayan Rane towards weakening the emerging threats of the Shiv Sena. They have got Bhalchandra Mungekar into their fold. Although he may not be useful to influence the Dalit masses in favour of the Congress, as a scholar activist he could bring in a wealth of information to strategise its move to manage Dalit votes. One of the obvious strategies would be to get the rest of the RPI leaders on its side and create noises that Athawale alone does not represent Bhimshakti. Such noises are already being made and may be amplified after the July meet of the Dalit leaders called by Kawade. Prakash Ambedkar faces the same catch-22 situation as many times before and will prefer to stay aloof in the prison of conscience of his own making. There is no likelihood of a viable third force getting cobbled up in a short time. Therefore the game would be played between the two alliances, the Congress/NCP and Sena/BJP. Those who stay independent may be accused of weakening the great Congress secularism and benefiting the BJP. Of course, these developments bring an opportunity for the BSP to make a forceful appeal to the Dalit masses. As their votes indicate, their appeal is expectedly rising. However, it is unlikely that they would really get it significantly better than the last time and the least, win any seat. In net terms the distribution of Dalit votes may not vary very significantly from the recent past for most elections except for the local bodies.
Because at the local level the salience of power is perceived sharply, the young generation of Dalits might support the Sena alliance which is well-entrenched in the Mumbai Corporation. In Mumbai and also the surrounding corporations, since the battle is likely to be three-cornered between the BJP-Shiv Sena-RPI, MNS, and the Congress-NCP and probably other RPIs, a slight swing could be very consequential. At the higher level bodies, there may not be much influence of this alliance. Nonetheless much depends upon who creates the right kinds of noises at the time of elections backed by money and organisational power.
The Real Political Power
The major issue is not what happens to the electoral outcome because of this cobbling but what can happen to the Dalits in whose name this farce gets enacted. The answer to the question is pretty clear: whatever the electoral outcome, the fortune of Dalit leaders like Athawale would surely rise but the prospects of the Dalit masses would be depleted. The gain to leaders accrues once the deal is capped. Interestingly, Athawale himself, though in his comic style, referred to these political transactions as business in his speeches several times and got applause in response from his fans! The business anyway shows up in his mounting net worth as any politician’s. As we have known, there is little difference at the level of policies of any political party. Therefore, in material terms there is absolutely no likelihood of the crises faced by the masses being lessened by any electoral outcome. Even in the social sphere there may not be much difference as the characteristics of the forces behind these alliances in villages are the same. If the Shiv Sena-BJP can gun down Dalits in Ramabainagar, the Congress-NCP can give Dalits Khairlanji! Since with such electoral communion of leaders Dalits get embedded in the ruling alliances, paradoxically they lose their voice to question them. Any time such an occasion arises, their leaders would broker the rent for themselves and stay put the masses.
This process could be clearly observed by anyone during the last six decades and particularly the last two of globalisation making it more blatant then before. However, since the Dalits have been intoxicated over a long time to see electoral politics as the ‘be-all-and-end-all’ of their political life, this escaped them. The entire system of electoral politics is so devised that it structurally benefits the brokers and inter-mediaries, euphemistically called leaders. These leaders simply keep creating the mirage of political power and make the masses run after them. Political power, conceived exclusively through the electoral process, would verily stay as a mirage for the Dalits, given their numbers and relatively meagre resource base. The pygmies pretending to be Dalit leaders make emotional appeal to the masses invoking Ambedkar and fatten themselves on the tribute flowing from the ruling classes as long as this mirage lasts. The earliest the Dalits discard this mirage, the better would it be for them.
Dalits do need political power. But that power is not going to come through the electoral process which essentially runs on money power. It has been a big trap that has blocked the political possibilities of Dalits. They need to rethink their strength, their Bhimshakti. It lies in their organisational unity and prowess to fight for the real issues of living. Political power is just the byproduct of the process of acquiring political consciousness through united struggles for the real issues. It is time they called a halt to these farcical acrobatics by their political brokers.

Creation #07
Herman Kolgen
Gare SNCF [Rennes]
Herman Kolgen is a multidisciplinary artist from Quebec; he is mostly famous for his audiovisual creations. He lives and works in Montreal and shows his projects all around the world. He actively focuses on the relation between sound and image by creating installations, audiovisual works, performances and sound sculptures.
The Gare SNCF de Rennes (Rennes railway station) is situated in the south of the city center. The building was completed in 1857 in order to receive the Paris-Brest railway. Then it was completely renovated in 1992 by the architect Thierry Le Berre to launch the TGV Atlantique. The railway station as it is nowadays has a real estate facility with offices, services, a second access from the south, and connections with other means of transportation (buses, subway) making it a major transport hub of Rennes.
Herman Kolgen went all over the railway station in October 2010, equipped with several –sometimes hidden– microphones. He worked in public areas as well as restricted ones, and along the rails. He also recorded texts read by Dominique Godderis, a long-standing friend of his. During the presentation of his work, Herman Kolgen made use of his device Geographic Words so as to spatialize sounds with speakers located among the audience. Gares & Connexions offered to set the occurrences of this performance at 1am and 2am; magical and extraordinary moments of the railway happened then.

Results, Fixtures and 250 Club
Wed, 6 Mar, 2013 Pádraig Pearses Juvenile
The club’s U13 footballers made it two wins on the trot in the League last weekend, defeating Killererin in Barnaderg. In the Suck Valley Hurling Leagues our U14s had their first win of the season, against Sylane in Ballymacward. The minors were also in action, again against Sylane in Ballymacward, losing by 3 points.The Senior hurlers had their second League outing, in Fohenagh, against Portumna (report below).
The U21 hurlers will return to action this weekend against Cois Fharraige in Round 2 of the U21B Championship. Cois Fharraige had a good win over Killimor in Round 1, clocking up a big score. Pearses will be hoping to build on their good wn over Kilconieron in Round 1. A win would see us qualify for the Quarter-Final, a loss would mean we have to play in a Preliminary Quarter-Final. The U14s also make their first Championship appearance (having played 3 Suck Valley games), in Moycullen against the home side, at 3pm on Saturday. There is a bus travelling to the game. For more information contact Club Secretary.andamp;nbsp;

[Retros] Favour/En Passant
Andrew Buchanan andrew at anselan.com
Previous message: [Retros] Favour/En Passant
Dear Guus,
I agree that PRA is not really the appropriate domain for Jonathan’s offering. Indeed I stated in my email that PRA was not the main point. It was still worth mentioning for clarity since that’s the default rule these days.
I also agree that RS (and AP which I will not venture into until the other conventions are nailed down completely) are perhaps more fruitful than PRA.
My real point which you never answered was that the problem already has a totally definite answer under RS. Namely: there is no #1, and that’s just fine. And there are some similar diagrams where White has no other move. Totally fine – wish I could dig one up. The conventions were originally developed to support orthodox problems, and do a good job. As a side effect we have some diagrams where White has no permitted move, although we may know that the game cannot be stalemate. This is no cause for grief, indeed it is neat. There is no paradox, because we understand that stalemate only applies when there are no *legal* moves.
But you seem to think there is something broken here, and you stated:
>Deciding that white is stalemated would be illegal as there would exist no proof game leading to stalemate.
>Clearly some e.p. move must therefore be permitted.
Nooooo! :D
(1) White is not stalemated. There are just no *permitted* moves for White under the e.p. convention.
(2) Nit: I think you meant “invalid” not “illegal”.
(3) I do agree there would be no proof game leading to stalemate, but so what?
(4) The second sentence is a complete non sequitur. But PRA would in fact give you that e.p. move, if you must have it.
Guus, I will probably never be able to compose chess problems at your level. But you really make no sense to me with your “paradigm change”.
We have already in the conventions a brilliant simple notion of *permission*, which separates retro logic applied to the rules from the action of the conventions. Under your new “paradigm”, why do we have to throw this away?
More, we can extend the use “permission” as the basis for a consistent way of handling other areas where problems differ from games. This has many advantages: (1) relatively simplicity (2) proven model (3) protection of prior art. And I submit this can also be extended to cover the fairy area.

Subject: Re: [Retros] Favour/En Passant
Hi Kevin, Andrew and Jonathan,
Actually I fully agree that pRA is the default assumption and resolves the issue.
In fact, this is so obvious that I haven't even considered this to be Jonathans case. The logics are by nature a dimension separate from the basic conventions in the sense that they can be an independent part of the stipulation. In the old days I needed to write "pRA" if I didn't like the idea of my problem being resolved by RS. Today I need to do the reverse, namely add "RS" if such is what I desire. I have taken Jonathans example as one to be resolved under the "RS stipulation" and I answered it in this fashion.
You can take that as a general context for my theory. Most interesting situations arise in RS and AP logics. In the pRA and retro-vairant logics all retro-active issues are compressed at the entrance gate. Though they are not at all obvious - especially in fairy forms - it is clear that all is plain sailing after the initial conditions have been established.
Andrew and I will continue to disagree on the nature of conventions. I have written 1 post about that and will write 1 more to address the precise delineation (as I see it). Everyone can decide for himself which side he is on.
Note: An essential characteristic of RS-logic is that things are different in the solver domain than in the player domain. You may be able to prove that you can mate in 1, but not be able to execute it under RS logic. See my PB R309. One can prove that white can mate in either 5 moves or 8 moves (in pRA style), but under RS logics it can only be done in 7 moves. The reason is that RS-logic fuses variants from different proof games. But I will write much more about that.
Best wishes, Guus Rol.

I disagree again with your main point.
First, I do agree that Jonathan’s diagram is an excellent case. But I think it’s handled adequately by the existing conventions. It is not an issue nor a joke.
Before the recent changes to the conventions driven through by Werner Keym, under the en passant convention the diagram would have no *permitted* mating move. That’s fine. The sky doesn’t fall apart. Even if there was no other legal move for White, this doesn’t put White in stalemate. Stalemate is the result of having no legal moves. It is *not* the result of having no permitted moves.
It’s not a crisis: the sky doesn’t fall. We just admit the fact that in a few diagrams, it is not possible to determine whether certain en passants are allowable, and indeed whether the game is over or not. Those are interesting diagrams, and it’s certainly not worth twisting everything in order to ensure that some en passant must be allowed. That would be horrible.
Under the PRA convention, which now applies by default, things are even more straightforward. The problem splits into two parts, according to possible histories. Each history allows one en passant, so the problem is solved. I believe that Werner Keym would say that the problem has 1 solution, in two parts. I don’t particularly like PRA in this context, because it excludes any history in which neither e.p. is allowed. That just makes things too easy: most of Jonathan’s work is about showing that Black’s last move must have been one of the double hops. This is rendered irrelevant by PRA. However, PRA is not the main point.
I think our main disagreement is coming clearer. Once again you are mixing together rules and conventions. My position remains that just because the conventions don’t *permit* us to play a certain move should have no impact at the level of the rules themselves.
I made the next point in an earlier email, but I don’t think I got it across to everyone so I will say it again.
If rules and conventions operate at the same level as you propose, then *every* help pat is unsound, because the players are constrained by convention (i.e.: the definition of mandated player behaviour in a help pat) to work with one another to reach stalemate. Alternate lines of play which do not end in a stalemate are irrelevant, because the players are not permitted to play moves that diverge from the solution. So A1.3 kicks in right at the start. Similarly, *every* direct pat is unsound. White is bound by convention to eschew any path that can avoid a stalemate, and despite Black’s best efforts, the composition must end in a pat. Hence A1.3 will kill the solution right from the start.
Now the issue here, I submit, is not A1.3, but the mixing together of rules and conventions. Please let’s distinguish the rules from the conventions, and say the rules are about legality, while the conventions constrain which legal and possibly-legal moves are permitted, then we do not get in the horrible confused state that you are proposing.
And I don’t even believe that your planned path makes it easier to scale to fairy compositions. I think the idea of rules (including fairy rules) addressing legality, and conventions (including perhaps fairy conventions) then determining permissibility, is a bedrock upon which we can build a solid artifice.
Dear Jonathan,
Excellent case and a real issue. There are many similar situations, particularly in fairy land like with the "fuddled men" in Turnbulls infamous article. I had preseved the treatment of these cases for an "advanced topics" post but I can outline it here. You could have made things a little worse by making sure that white was "stalemated" apart from playing the e.p. moves. Deciding that white is stalemated would be illegal as there would exist no proof game leading to stalemate. Clearly some e.p. move must therefore be permitted.
The reduction principle on the DGCs is based on the premise that some preferred option for play remains but such is not always the case. Besides that, there is the possibility of a "group right", a right that cannot be proved for each individual member of the group but van be proved to exist somewhere in the group. The handling of the cases occurs on a higher level than the handling of the DGC-set / Game set.
The natural approach is the temporary promotion of all "secondary rights" to "primary rights" (I am not sure about this terminology yet but you know what I mean) in a "rights group" allowing each one the be executed as such - i.e. as if it were a right to castle. After this promotion, the reduction from DGC to Game resumes with the modified "rights".
One issue remains and is reflected by your example. Do you wish to allow "promotion" only when no other playing option remains or do you wish to allow it whenever a group right exists - as in your example? There is an aspect of personal taste in this choice, but also one of best workability. Having contemplated this for a while on the basis of fairy forms, my gut feeling is that it is best to stick with the first choice. Which means that white cannot play e.p. in the example you presented.but he could if he were stalemated (or mated) otherwise. But you are entitled to disagree since the choice steps outside the necessities of a a sound and consistent decisioning system.
Note: On top of the retro-decisionig-tree is the 1st command: There must always be a proof game.

Why Glenn Beck isn’t crazy and millions of Americans believe him
The following is a guest piece which was submitted unsolicited by William Holden. Holden has a background in political science. He noticed where earlier this Review had asked “why millions of his followers are so tuned out of his obvious misunderstanding of Middle East realities and his character flaws. That is more mysterious than Beck himself.“ He has been posting on Media Matters' blog recently and asked himself the same question. Below you find a piece considering that question where he reworked his postings from the liberal media watchdogs, Media Matters for America. Holden feels it important to debunk Glenn Beck, and from his perspective the media does a bad job of this.
not crazy, but clever
Recently, the idea that Glenn Beck is crazy has made again the news. He must be. Must he not? When Beck brings a rabbit and a chainsaw to the stage it seems he has stepped over once more into territory unknown to the reasonable mind. Beck´s take on the uprising of the people in Egypt just confirms the reputation of Glenn Beck as lunatic. Beck provides indeed a lot of “doubleyou-teeeee-eeeeef-moments” (thanks Sarah Palin) that make him look crazy in the eyes of the broad public. Yet Glenn Beck is anything but crazy. The Mormon and his team run a perfect propaganda operation based on psychological insights that need to be understood.
This is very important to notice, and that is always the one decisive missing point in dealing with the Glenn-Beck-phenomenon. Time magazine for example failed in their story in September 2009 about the “Mad Men” to mention the psychological basis and expertise for the stunning success of Glenn Beck. Sure, there is the common understanding that Beck exploits fears, it is also easy to point out the contradictions or most absurd claims that are only good for a laugh. It simply fails to address the most important question though: How does Glenn Beck achieve that millions of Americans believe him?
The essence of propaganda is a transmitter who wants to bring his message across to the masses to influence the masses. A simple sounding task that is quiet difficult to achieve. Beck has a clear assignment and clear goal: Keeping his audience motivated and mobilized. Beck doesn’t try to convince people who don’t belong to his audience. He refuses to engage in debates. The few times he appeared on shows outside his comfort zone showed a person who was helpless, almost childish in his attempts to dodge questions. It is a strong indicator for the importance and excellence of the team behind Beck with Dr. Ablow as best known face to the public. Dr. Ablow is a psychiatrist and received his degree from the famous Johns Hopkins Medical School.
In addition, from a practical standpoint there is no need for Beck to accept the various invitation he received from several prominent media figures. Why would he waste time on it? The core task is to keep his audience mobilized for political purposes and motivated to buy products. They are the ones who are putting pressure on the decision makers since they are mobilized. They are also the ones who put money in his pocket.
Beck manages to appear as a leader and a peer of this group through several factors. The messengers needs credibility and Beck achieves that mainly in being the voice of his audience and representing their views while he takes advantage of their needs.
The God Factor
God and the Bible are the ultimate source for authorization. Beck refers regularly to God of course. When he tells the audience to listen to God he speaks for his audience. Hearing God or not hearing God is an utterly important criteria for judging a person and his motives. The ones who hear God are good. The ones who don’t are bad and evil. The God factor includes or excludes people. There are many hot issues where that division line is visible like same sex marriage or abortion. Another major impact is the defending and glorification of irrationality as in the irrational believe that the earth is 6000 years old.
The Gut Factor
truthiness is a gut feeling
Beck tells the audience not only listen to God, but also to their guts. It is necessary to keep the trust in irrationality high. Irrationality makes reasonable arguments impossible. Furthermore it validates the irrational fears of people. It is perfectly okay to trust your gut, Beck says. That is the opposite of enlightenment. Fear is better than reason. Furthermore he encourages the audience to trust emotions more than facts. It is necessary for Beck to reassure the importance of feelings. Indirectly he tells his audience to put reason aside and wants them to stay emotional under any circumstances.
The Psychological Factor
Fear is one of these emotions. All or almost all humans fear what is unknown to them. The need for self preservation and security as Bernays pointed out are strong motivators. Another model is the hierarchy of needs by Abraham Maslow. Maslow equated human needs to levels of a pyramid, basically saying after the needs of one level are fulfilled humans move on the next level and develop new needs. While the model was criticized for the ranking of needs, the described needs offer an excellent guideline for Beck´s modus operandi. The precision in applying the insights of Maslow by Glenn Beck and his co-workers is amazing. Without saying or claiming that Maslow is the only source Beck and his team are relying on almost any of Beck´s statements fits amazingly well into the hierarchy of needs. Longer statements as well as some of Beck´s most famous slogans are in tune with it.
This year Beck launched something called “E4”. The E´s stand for Enlightenment, Education, Empowerment and Entrepreneurship. The promise behind it is that anyone who masters it gains a better life. Or in other word self-actualization as Maslow called the top level of the pyramid in his model.
If you have wondered why Beck likes to mention food a lot, it belongs to the botton level of the pyramid where Maslow put the most basic physiological needs like food. Beck often targets the physiological needs with images and language in his shows. Another physiological need is movement and every time Beck speaks about camps or the cattle he wants to evoke the physiological need for movement and suggest it is threatened. The cattle or the camp prisoners are not free to move.
Probably the most important need level for the propaganda is the need for security. Security is provided through the rule of law and a order that guarantees security. Not so long ago Beck brought up the number of murdered police men attempting to represent himself as defender of law and order and let the audience know that law and order are endangered today. Painting the picture of the collapse of the rule of of law and destruction of the secure order Americans live in is indispensable imagery for the Glenn Beck Show.
Francis Fox Piven, the people of Egypt, the footage of riots and anything else what comes to minds serve as threat to the security of the viewer. Beck can´t stop to talk about the collapse of the system, the riots, the revolutions, the end of the American way of life. Now, Beck even talks about the end of the Western Civilization. But playing only on fear and horror scenarios, the two lowest levels of Maslow`s pyramid, wouldn’t and couldn’t work as efficiently if Beck would fail to give the audience something for their other needs: love and belonging as well as esteem.
“Hello America”, as Beck welcomes his viewers, love and belonging comes next. Beck creates a sense of belonging for the audience. He likes to mention friends and family; he likes to give the audience the feeling to belong to a big social group called American Nation, an honorable group of people who are working to “restore honor.”
Placing Beck in front of the Lincoln Memorial last summer and attaching Beck to that national symbol was a very clever move by Beck and his team. The rally was a perfect project for the need of love and belonging. Beck´s speech was full of fitting metaphors in that regard and he included a lot of elements to pay respect to the attendants. In other words, he was very well aware that esteem, another need recognized by Maslow, was important for the crowd. Beck routinely says on his show that his audience isn’t stupid. He seemingly shows respect when the exact opposite must be the case. Yet it works because of the need for esteem.
Pretty much any of Beck comments can be attributed to one of the layers in Maslow`s model. He exploits the so-called deficiency needs on the one hand, and on the other hand offers with his respectful and friendly remarks towards the audience the sense of belonging to a well informed community of honorable people. The love and esteem Maslow included in his hierarchy of needs and on top of it Beck has also the solution to reach self-actualization. On a psychological level working with Maslow is the main guiding line for Becks propaganda it appears.
The Propaganda Factor
Manipulating and stroking the psychological needs is a mean to end. Once manipulation is achieved the acceptance for political propaganda is established. Political propaganda doesn’t stick to facts. Facts are unimportant. As Goebbels said: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.“
The goal of propaganda is to make viewers believe something what isn’t true and direct viewers to conclusions they wouldn’t reach otherwise. The manipulated people aren’t reachable with rational arguments. Facts don’t matter to them. What matters are their needs that have been set in motion and their emotional needs remain unimpressed by facts. Practically, they live in a bubble and it is breathtaking that they would use phrases and arguments that Beck told them often word by word in a debate. Despite a very long list of lies Beck told over the years the trust and faith of Beck remains in place. Beck is perceived as voice of the truth while critics are perceived as enemies who can’t be trusted at all. One of many evidences for the success of the propaganda.
Effective propaganda takes away the status of political rivals as respectable competitors and turns them into enemies. They are no longer part of a fair political process who you might disagree with. They are enemies with the goal of destruction the country and they are perceived as threats to the individual needs on a personal level and as threats to the Nation on a collective level. Who isn’t on the same side is an enemy. Alas, the point is illustrated by the experience of Francids Fox Piven and the hateful comments on several right-wing websites.
Liberals, Socialists, Commies, Progressives, Nazis, Marxists and now the Muslim Brotherhood endanger the Nation and the world. The exploration of the worst historical stereotypes can´t be overlooked and culminated on one occasion in the revelation that George Soros is the “puppet master” to name one obvious example for one classic anti-Semitic stereotype.
Essentially, propaganda translates deficiency needs and being needs into political terms. While different views are perceived out of fear for the deficiency needs as evil, the flip-side of belonging to the self-proclaimed true America is the reward and healing of the being needs for love and esteem.
The Visual Factor
The presentation in the studio is the visualization of the psychological manipulation and political propaganda. The setting as friendly teacher with the chalkboards resounds the image of childhood. It is a fair assumption that most of the viewership have an idealized picture of their childhood when everything was safe. The world has gotten so damn complicated today. Back then, everything was so much easier. Beck takes the audience back to this place and teaches how the world works. He also likes to come on stage in a childlike fashion with the sneakers, or ice cream or sitting on the desk like a kid emphasizing how great it was to be a kid.
The imagery of the studio contrasts the chaos in the world. It is safe, cosy, warm and everything is in place. The picture of the old-fashioned gas pump reflects the good old times. A brilliant choice for promoting the “E4”-merchandise. Not surprisingly, Beck was quick with chalkboards that offered the answers to all the questions about Egypt though he clearly he is no expert of the Middle East, Egypt or world politics.
For the above reasons describing Beck as crazy is a wrong characterization. On the contrary, he shows a very rational and very sophisticated propaganda show. In the high level of sophistication lies the main distinction to public figures in the same or opposing political camp that could be compared to Beck. No one else comes even close to the expertise in psychological manipulation and propaganda. That makes Glenn Beck an outstanding and unique figure in the contemporary media.
Finally, if you wondered about the chainsaw and the rabbit, it was sound to assume it was a display of the confusion technique, one technique for manipulation. The image was confusing, created a sense of uneasiness and the desire for an explanation to get rid of the confusion. And the man who created the confusion made sure he was also the one to release the viewers from their confusion and uneasiness.
Beck is repeating lie after lie and the lies are believed by so many because Beck plays with their needs as Maslow has described them.

This is actually qute true. I am now 43, and I have been interested in manipulation and seduction of individuals and masses from the time I was a teenager (It all started when my girlfriend dumped me in an event that motivated me to begin a quest for 'under the belt' seduction techniques-but it dodnt end there.) I have read countless books on psychology, meta progframs, seduction, etc etc and am quite a good manipulator myself. As such, I did see through 80% of the techniques described here in the Glenn Beck show, but I still watch his show, as it entertains me and amuses me and yes, I admit, my admiration at his skill at seduction and manipulation warrants my admiration, too.
I believe this article has many excellent arguments and important information that should be shared with the world, the glaring grammatical and spelling errors throughout are incredibly distracting and open you up to attack for frivolous reasons. Please run this through a spellcheck of some type.

Cover Reveal ♥ Bayou Brides by Linda Joyce ♥
Title: Bayou Brides
Series: Fleur de Lis Series, book 4
Author: Linda Joyce
Cover Designer: Kim Mendoza The Wild Rose Press, Inc.
Nola Dutrey is as dedicated to her jazz singing career as she is to her kids’ community band in New Orleans. When she meets her best friend’s brother, her heart beats with a newfound passion. But falling in love with someone whose life is in New York has no future.
Restaurateur and music enthusiast Rex Arceneau is in town to settle his father’s estate. He must get the financials into the black before handing over the family restaurant to his sister. To reduce expenses—the weekend singer must go. However, he meets Nola, and their connection sizzles. When he hears her sing, he’s hooked.
Nola’s torn between powerful attraction and life in New Orleans. Rex is determined to use music as a secret weapon to entice Nola north.
Will she ever be a bride at Fleur de Lis or will life’s dissonant notes ruin their harmony and once-in-a-lifetime love?
Amazon Best Selling author and multiple RONE Award Finalist Linda Joyce writes contemporary romance and women’s fiction featuring assertive females and the men who can’t resist them. She lives with her very patient husband in a house in metro-Atlanta run by a fifteen-year-old canine named General Beauregard or “Beau,” who believes they are his pets. Linda’s a closet artist who paints with a brush, yet longs to finger paint…but hates getting her hands messy. She’s addicted to Cajun food and sushi. Linda will deny she only leaves the house once a week and only then to get criticism from two other authors.
Linda lives in Atlanta. She’s a big fan of jazz and blues, and she attributes her love of music to her southern roots, which run deep in Louisiana. Courtesy of her father’s Air Force career, she lived coast to coast in the U.S. and wrote her first manuscript when she was twelve while living in Japan, where her mother was born and raised. During recess, girls lined up on the bleachers, like birds on a wire, and took turns reading and passing pages to the next girl in line.
In addition to being a book addict, Linda loves dogs. She’s a foodie—a fangirl of celebrity chefs, an RVer with a 5er, loves to hike and kayak in spring and summer, binge watch movies in the winter, and when the days cool and the leaves begin to turn in the fall, she’s all smiles over SEC football.

A decent synopsis can be read on the corresponding Wikipedia page.
Police State/Martial Law Scenery
Let’s start with the police state scenery shown in the movie:
Not only do we see quite a substantial presence of police in the movie, we also observe that the military is used as a means of crowd control and the keeping of order. Should reality come to resemble fiction – which is not unlikely, scenes depicting the military fulfilling the role of maintaining civil order helps to prepare the viewer to regard a military presence in urban settings as being normal.
Ferryboat with Prisoners – Non-Military Guards
Ferryboat with Civilians – Military Guards
It’s remarkable, to say the least, to observe that the prisoners on one boat are being guarded by civil servants who are relatively light armed and are not geared towards combat and on the other boat the civilians are guarded by regular heavy duty army personnel. Is this more predictive programming that points at a martial law future in which civilians, as a rule, will be policed by the army?
Introducing the Rude and Stoic Strongman Crime Fighter
Dirty Harry (Clint Eastwood)
Robocop (Peter Weller)
Batman struck me as a vocal-chords abusing sinister crossing between the equally stoic and grumpy Dirty Harry and the anonymously acting and incorruptible Robocop. By his ultimately noble crime fighting efforts, the character of Batman sort of vindicates the impersonal and rude attitude of law enforcement officers in real life. The message to the viewer being that the stoicism and rudeness displayed by real life crime fighters is a reasonable price to pay for keeping the streets safe.
The tough guy attitude displayed by Batman fits remarkably well in today’s police state crazed mentality; where the public is now all of a sudden seen as a threat and liability rather than something worthy of protection (from the bad guys). In a police state perceptional setting the public has basically become the a priori guilty-until-proven-innocent bad guy and that therefore the cops think themselves of being needy of protection from the presumed ever hostile public. And so harsh preemptive police action against the public is easily vindicated and therefore allowable.
Again, the character of Batman lives up to that police state theme very well.
Indeed, it only takes 20 minutes into the movie before the presence of a Batman is rationalized.
20:00 – Rationalizing the need for a strongman crime fighter
Natasha: I’m talking about the kind of city that idolizes a masked vigilante.
Dent: Gotham City is proud of an ordinary citizen standing up for what’s right.
Natasha: Gotham needs heroes like you, elected officials…not a man who thinks he’s above the law.
Wayne: Exactly. Who appointed the Batman?
Dent: We did. All of us who stood by and let scum take control of our city.
Natasha: But this is a democracy, Harvey.
Dent: When their enemies were at the gates, the Romans would suspend democracy and appoint one man to protect the city. It wasn’t considered an honor, it was considered a public service.
Rachel: Harvey, the last man that they appointed…to protect the republic was named Caesar and he never gave up his power.
Dent: Okay, fine. You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. lessonbucket.com
Not only is the rise of crime used as an excuse to justify the advent of Batman, if crime were to really rise beyond any acceptable levels, the movie suggests that it would even be justified to “suspend democracy” and so give Batman complete free reign and boundless authority to sweep the streets of Gotham clean.
Thus the idea that alleged unfettered crime proliferation requires draconian crime fighting strategies is forced on the viewer once again.
26:00 – District Attorney asks strongman Batman to catch suspected criminal
Dent: We need Lau back…but the Chinese won’t extradite a national under any circumstances.
Batman: If I get him to you, can you get him to talk?
Dent: I’ll get him to sing.
Gordon: We’re going after the Mob’s life savings. Things will get ugly. lessonbucket.com
As such, the alliance between government (Gotham’s District Attorney) and the strongman crime fighter (Batman) is either shown to already exist or informally established on the spot. Either way, this little scene demonstrates that Batman is by no means a vigilante operating on his own accord and discretion.
Consequently, Batman flies over to Hong Kong and in spectacular fashion manages to apprehend and bring back home one of the suspected ring leaders of the organized crime that’s plaguing Gotham. No rendition warrant is needed, no abidance to international law is required, and no stacks of paper work need to be filled in, just one Batman to do the DA’s dirty work is all that is needed thank you very much. In addition, should this act of outsourcing of “extraordinary rendition” go awry and catch a bad press in the process, the contractor will take the fall while the government who hired the contractor can always resort to denying the whole thing (plausible deniability) and so stay in the clear and appear squeaky clean.
So you can imagine that it’s pretty convenient for a government to have a spare “Batman” laying around.
Scenes like these prepare the viewer to accept the notion that extradition of wanted suspected criminals can be enforced and accelerated via resorting to deploy covertly acting extra-governmental services that conveniently bypass all the normal time-consuming legal hassles.
52:00 – Justification of the existence of a strongman crime fighter
Alfred: [Some] men aren’t looking for anything logical, like money. They can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just wanna watch the world burn. lessonbucket.com
These words spoken by Batman’s loyal assistant can be interpreted as his perhaps much needed pep-talk. By assisting regular law enforcement, even if covertly, in getting to apprehend the most serious of liabilities to the safety of Gotham, Batman sees his existential rude role vindicated. The motto being: the formidably dangerous Joker must be dealt with by an equally formidably courageous Batman.
As such, the notion that hardened criminals should be dealt with by equally stiff law enforcement, is suggested to the viewer.
55:00 – Batman cast as vigilante
Fox: Let me get this straight. You think that your client…one of the wealthiest, most powerful men in the world is secretly a vigilante who spends his nights beating criminals to a pulp with his bare hands and your plan is to blackmail this person? Good luck. lessonbucket.com
It is interesting to note that Batman is referred to as a vigilante on numerous occasions in the movie. Although Batman may choose to combat crime on his own initiative, this is not always the case as it became apparent earlier on already that he also maintains a secret alliance with Gotham’s DA and police commissioner.
Also the man behind Batman, Bruce Wayne – as is testified by the expensive vehicles and equipment at his disposal – is filthy rich. Therefore it is unlikely, if he really were an independently acting vigilante, that he would also remain unnoticed by the authorities. After all, the purchases of expensive gadgetry are easily traceable by intelligence agencies as are expensive (maintenance) parts. And so a rich vigilante is easily tracked down by the authorities. So much for the philanthropic bad guy catcher acting anonymously towards the authorities. Therefore, it’s much more plausible to assume that Batman represents a covert service or agency that secretly can be contracted by the government to do its “dirty work,” i.e. the kind of work the government cannot be caught doing itself.
1:20:00 – Batman “interrogates” the Joker
Batman: You wanted me. Here I am.
The Joker: I wanted to see what you’d do. And you didn’t disappoint. You let five people die. Then you let Dent take your place. Even to a guy like me, that’s cold.
Batman: Where’s Dent?
The Joker: Those Mob fools want you gone so they can get back to the way things were. But I know the truth. There’s no going back. You’ve changed things. Forever.
Batman: Then why do you wanna kill me?
The Joker: I don’t wanna kill you. What would I do without you? Go back to ripping off Mob dealers? No, no. No. No, you…you complete me.
Batman: You’re garbage who kills for money.
The Joker: Don’t talk like one of them. You’re not. Even if you’d like to be. To them, you’re just a freak like me. They need you right now…but when they don’t…they’ll cast you out like a leper. You see, their morals, their code…it’s a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They’re only as good as the world allows them to be. I’ll show you. When the chips are down, these…these civilized people they’ll eat each other. See, I’m not a monster. I’m just ahead of the curve. lessonbucket.com
In terms of Hegelian Dialectics, assuming that the Joker is the thesis, or the problem, the obvious anti-thesis, or the reaction, is the Batman. The synthesis, or the solution, is a presumed safer city gained at by a permanently enhanced law enforcement. That is, as the Joker and the Batman fight it out, the city is to transform into a virtual or actual police state.
Immediately following the aforementioned scene, Batman proceeds to “interrogate” the Joker that is but a small step away from downright torture. Batman acts in such a way that his “harsh” interrogation techniques are only a reasonable thing to do since, after all, the Joker has done awfully bad things to his friends Harvey Dent and Rachel Dawes. In addition, the Joker only seems to enjoy as Batman’s fury unleashes on him. Indeed, the Joker proved to have a death wish as he challenged Batman to kill him prior to this scene.
Nonetheless, with respect to predictive programming, the viewer may unfortunately project the screen interpretation onto real life torture events. The viewer may thus rationalize away torture scenes by presuming that the subjects are heinous terrorists who did awful things and that they merely deserve the treatment dished out to them and that they may even be mentally ill to the possible point of suicidality (think also of suicide bombers) and so in their delusion stand to enjoy being subjected to harsh interrogation as they witness their interrogators sweat pearls of anxiety.
1:50:00 – Spying on all civilians to catch one bad guy
Wayne: Beautiful, isn’t it?
Fox: Beautiful. Unethical. Dangerous. You’ve turned every cell phone in Gotham into a microphone.
Wayne: And a high-frequency generator-receiver.
Fox: You took my sonar concept and applied it to every phone in the city. With half the city feeding you sonar, you can image all of Gotham. This is wrong.
Wayne: I’ve gotta find this man, Lucius.
Fox: At what cost?
Wayne: The database is null-key encrypted. It can only be accessed by one person.
Fox: This is too much power for one person.
Wayne: That’s why I gave it to you. Only you can use it.
Fox: Spying on 30 million people isn’t part of my job description.
lessonbucket.com
The utilization of a huge spying network to hunt down merely one man (granted, and his handful of henchmen) is an ominous sign of real life things to come. Indeed, one could ask the question if we already haven’t got to the point of “total information awareness,” i.e. a society in which all of its members are under constant surveillance.
What this movie does of course, is to give the viewer a seemingly reasonable excuse for the government to implement a constant surveillance of its citizens. After all, the viewer is led to believe that in a world filled with dangerous terrorists, the minor inconvenience of being spied on 24-7, is but a small price to pay for keeping the baddies out and so to keep the public safe and sound.
2:18:00 – Justification of the existence of a strongman crime fighter II
Batman: I’m whatever Gotham needs me to be. Call it in.
Gordon (delivering eulogy): A hero. Not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed. Nothing less than a knight shining.
Gordon: They’ll hunt you.
Batman: You’ll hunt me. You’ll condemn me. Set the dogs on me. Because that’s what needs to happen. Because sometimes the truth isn’t good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.
James: Batman. Batman! Why’s he running, Dad?
Gordon: Because we have to chase him.
Police Officer: Okay, we’re going in! Go, go! Move!
James: He didn’t do anything wrong.
Gordon: Because he’s the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we’ll hunt him…because he can take it. Because he’s not our hero. He’s a silent guardian…a watchful protector. A dark knight. lessonbucket.com
In other words, it’s not important that they are unpopular with the public, Batmans, or strongman crime fighters, are simply essential to help maintain law and order in a troubled society. Any conventional police officers and innocent bystanders who got hurt along the way as the Joker and Batman fought it out, can be shrugged off as unfortunate but insignificant collateral damage; a fair price to pay for restoring or maintaining order in a troubled city. The virtue of the strongman crime fighter sufficiently compensates for his inherent unpopularity with the public.
Credit Where Credit Is Due, RIP Heath Ledger
In spite of its predictive programming elements, it needs to be said that, in my opinion, the movie is a sheer joy to watch. Too bad Heath Ledger died prematurely. He proved to be a most brilliant actor and his interpretation of The Joker is arguably the best role he ever played. Rest in peace, Heath.
What Batman stands for in real life
Batman represents the non-conventional crime fighter, law enforcer and maintainer of civil order. He represents the (extra-)governmental services that track down suspected criminals, or enemies of the state, in an even broader context, even if they are hiding out in countries abroad. Batman’s actions gives a tacit approval of so-called extraordinary rendition programs. He also represents the unpopular and heavily armored martial law kind of police officer that tends to deployed in emergency situations. Batman also justifies the existence of the garden variety of snoop agents or spooks that are spying on the American public 24-7.
Batman’s success in apprehending bad guys, including the biggest bad guy in town, serves to vindicate his rough modes of action and thus gives a huge nod of approval to the aforementioned rich spectrum of unconventional crime fighters and crime preventer.
Batman therefore vindicates the existence of:
Mercenary forces, e.g. Blackwater (Xe Services)
Torture and Extraordinary Rendition Programs
Snoop Agencies
Militarization of Police
Also see my review of Robocop as to how that movie promotes the militarization of police.
