Reagan
Former US President Ronald Reagan has been voted the "greatest American" of all time by his fellow citizens.Mr Reagan, who died last year aged 93, topped a list of 10 contenders, which featured six former presidents.
He edged out Abraham Lincoln, who abolished slavery, and civil rights leader Martin Luther King
(BBC)
Sigh. Indeed. "Star Wars" missile defense and trickle-down economics and a 6 billion dollar debt created during his presidency are worth so very much more than, say, civil liberties.

Chavez had surgery?
...to remove his head from his ass?
Proof part I:
The Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez, has launched a regional oil initiative to provide fuel at cheaper prices to 15 Caribbean nations.Mr Chavez announced the Petrocaribe plan at a regional summit in Venezuela's city of Puerto La Cruz.
He said the region had suffered centuries of imperialism and needed to strike out on its own.
(BBC)
And part II:
Telesur is a new pan-Latin American TV channel based in Venezuela. It aims to rival CNN and the other Spanish-language news channels coming out of Miami and Atlanta.Some have already dubbed it Al-Bolivar - a combination of the Arabic news channel, Al-Jazeera, and President Hugo Chavez's favourite independence hero.
'Street-level view'
"It's a question of focus, of where we look at our continent from," says Mr Botero, Telesur's news director from Colombia.
"They look at it from the United States. So they give a rose-tinted, flavour-free version of Latin America. We want to look at it from right here.
"We want our cameras to get into places that their cameras have never been, to give a real, street-level view - like the girl said: 'The true face of Latin America.'"
...
Another part of the inspiration comes from Venezuela's community TV movement.
"Don't watch television. Make it" -- Slogan of community station Catia TV
[Iain Bruce] joined Iris, Gladys and Wilfredo, of Catia TV, in a small community hall in the Caracas shanty town of San Juan. They were beginning to recruit and train another of Catia TV's so-called community production teams.
The idea is to give poor communities like this their own say, by teaching ordinary people, from children to pensioners, to make television programmes for themselves.

Spies, like, in the US
US President George W Bush has ordered the creation of a domestic intelligence service within the FBI, as part of a package of 70 new security measures.The White House says it is enacting the measures to fight international terrorist groups and prevent the spread of weapons of mass destruction.
The authorities will also be given the power to seize the property of people deemed to be helping the spread of WMD. An independent commission recommended the measures earlier this year.
Quoth the BBC
Who's placing bets that they don't need warrants to find "WMD" or "terrorist related material"?

The BBC reports
Investigators from the United Nations have accused the US of stalling over their repeated requests to visit detainees at Guantanamo Bay.The UN says it has evidence that torture has taken at the prison amid reports that 520 inmates have had mental breakdowns.
The UN said for over a year there had been no response to its requests to check on the condition of detainees.
The Department of Defense told BBC News the UN request is being considered.
Thank god it's only torture and not WMD, 'cuz you know then the US would lay the smack down about the UN not being aggressive enough in its inspections, and invade ... the... uh... US base in Cuba?
OK, so, honestly -- was the guy we found in the spider hole just a fall-guy replacement for Saddam, and the real Saddam is now a top presidential advisor?
| Things we don't like Iraq for | Things we do ourselves |
|---|---|
| Build/own WMD | Best stockpile of chemical and nuclear WMD |
| Rule with fear | Use fear to implement policies destorying civil liberties |
| Avoid UN inspections | Avoid UN inspections |
| Use torture against enemies of the state | Use torture against 'illegal enemy combatants' |
| Invade smaller countries to sieze their oil assets | Invade Iraq and set up shop |
I'm sure this could go on for a while...

Circuit City Rebate Scam
So, I've yet to receive my rebate for a purchase I made back in January, I sent the form in, waited 8 weeks, nothing, waited a bit longer, called -- no record. Submitted my info, 4-6 weeks for "processing", waited... waited... still nothing. So I email today -- ooops, no record, please re-submit. So I send a snipy letter with the info, and a demand for it to be postmarked next week or I call the Better Business Bureau.
We'll see. This of course in the grande scheme of things is silly, but it pisses me off that they've made 6 months of interest off of my money and caused extra work for me.
If it comes to a point of a BBB resolution, I'll ask for interest plus 2 hours of my time charged at $40/hr to deal with this crap.

Debt Relief: good start
BBC reports on the G8 100% debt relief for 18 countries (mostly in sub-saharan Africa), with another 20 possibly eligible. Sadly, Jamaica is not among either of these lists.

Need new translators?
One wonders if perhaps English/Korean translators are just playing with us all:
"[Vice-Foreign Minister, Kim Gye-gwan] said North Korea had enough atomic bombs to protect itself against attack by the US and was building more. "
vs
"Bush has meanwhile said Pyongyang must show it is ready to give up its nuclear weapons programme in a "serious and substantive" way."
Or maybe the Korean word for "give up" is easily mistakable for "build up" ?

Global Warming
Philip Cooney removed or adjusted descriptions of climate research that had already been approved by government scientists, the newspaper said. ...The reports were "based on the best available science", spokesman Scott McClellan said.
...
Before working at the White House, Mr Cooney was a lobbyist at the American Petroleum Institute, the largest oil industry trade group.
He is a lawyer by training, with no scientific background.
...
They included the insertion of the phrase "significant and fundamental" before the word "uncertainties", and tended to produce an air of doubt about findings most climate experts say are robust, the paper reported.
(BBC)
I have some significant and fundamental doubts as to whether a former petrochem lawyer should be editing scientific papers discussing pollution. It's fair and balanced, I guess, just like Fox News!

BioBrazil
In the mid-1980s - before any other country even thought of the idea - Brazil succeeded in mass-producing biofuel for motor vehicles: alcohol, derived from its plentiful supplies of sugar-cane.Differently-powered cars were actually in the majority on Brazil's roads at the time, marking a major technological feat.
But the programme that had put the country so far ahead was very nearly consigned to history when oil prices slid back from high levels seen in the 1970s.
Alcohol-powered cars fell out of favour and languished in obscurity until last year, when production picked up again in a big way.
Now Brazilians can buy cars that give them the chance to mix and match alcohol with regular fuel - and conventional motor vehicles that run purely on petrol are looking old-fashioned once again.
(BBC)
I swear, one day we'll wake up and Brazil will be a world power.

Upping some news
Venezuela is seeking the extradition of Cuban-born Luis Posada Carriles, who is currently in jail in the US.The new documents purportedly prove his role in masterminding the 1976 bombing in which 73 people died.
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is accusing the US of double standards in its fight against terrorism.
Mr Posada Carriles is now a Venezuelan citizen.
The documents reportedly include testimony by a former employee of Mr Posada Carriles, photographer Hernan Ricardo, who admits placing an explosive device in one of the plane's toilets before disembarking.
(From the BBC
I'm actually not sure what to make of this. I'm not sure I trust Chavez any more in this case...

Pot. Meet Kettle
From the BBC:
US President George W Bush has criticised the presidential election taking place in Iran on Friday as ignoring the demands of democracy."Iran is ruled by men who suppress liberty at home and spread terror across the world," he said in a statement released by the White House.
The front-runner is former President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani.
However, he faces a tough challenge from two rivals, meaning a run-off vote may be needed for the first time.
Mr Bush criticised Iran for blocking hundreds of reformist candidates from running.
"Power is in the hands of an unelected few who have retained power through an electoral process that ignores the basic requirements of democracy," [Bush] said.
How many countries has Iran sent into political upheaval recently?
How fair and democratic is the US electoral-vote system?
How many of the hundreds of independent candidates were on the US presidential ballot?
Unelected few? Do I even need to go there?

Stall Graffiti
So, I watched Stall Graffiti down at the Blue Theater last night; a show based on graffiti scribbles on bathroom walls around Austin.
It revealed through various pieces a sort of leftist volksgeist hanging around, of a disenfranchised 48% who feel betrayed, and beyond that, dumbstruck by the blatant hypocrasies of the Jeff Gannon insanities, Abu Ghraib and the lack of accountability, and the lack of mainstream reporting on these issues. Multiple pieces (there were ~10 short performances by the troupe) referenced one or more of these topics.
The current scandal that's not getting reported is of course the Downing Street Memo, revealing that indeed BushCo had made up his mind to go to war in Iraq, and "intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy."
A word to anyone reading this from over seas who is naturally aghast at the US right now; most people don't see this news. I read BBC, blogs, and listen to the possibly-now-doomed public radio (the House proposes to cut its funding).

US Deficit: $195,100,000,000
"This is not the direction markets were hoping to see for the mammoth current account deficit," said economist Allan Seychuk at RBC Capital Markets."The US dollar has lost a great deal of ground because markets are uncomfortable with a deficit that has now reached record levels."
Drew Matus, economist at Lehman Brothers, agreed that the latest deficit increase was cause for concern.
"Overall, the data clearly points towards continued problems related to US appetite for imported goods and suggest that US still has very large financing need in order to pay for consumption," he said.

Downing Street Memo
Who else is holding their breath in fear that the smoking gun of the Downing Street Memo is just another plant of hot information that will soon be discredited, dragging down reporters and unbiased or non-right-leaning news sources with it?
The memo of course is the proof we've always suspected that BushCo cooked intelligence to match their desire to go to war:
Bush wanted to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy. The NSC had no patience with the UN route, and no enthusiasm for publishing material on the Iraqi regime's record. There was little discussion in Washington of the aftermath after military action.
It's also caused some stir among Congress demaning a response, and Nader's making impeachment rumblings.
How wonderful would it be to see Shrub impeached? Of course that's prolly no more than a fantasy with the neocon power to spin news and control of Faux News and ClearChannel radio, but hey, a man can dream?

Thunderbird/IE permissions
Just because I couldn't find this through a Google search -- OK, so, I had to uninstall and clear out Firefox a while back due to some bad extension juju or something, and after that, no matter how I played with Microsoft's "Program Access and Defaults," even to the point of "disabling access" to IE (which does nothing of the sort), anytime I clicked on a link in Thunderbird or a few other programs, it'd pop open IE, not Firefox. GAH.
The solution to this is to mnake sure Firefox is checking to see if it's default on start, close it down, use Program Access to set the default browser to IE (with Firefox, IE, and Thunderbird and other apps with the same problem all closed), then open Firefox and let it reset its permissions.
Thanks, MS, for providing a tool that in the name of fair play, increases your hegemony. Good job. You get no cookies.

DasBlueHaus :(
So, we lost against the Planning Commission, and it's therefore so incredibly unlikely that we could win in Council that we're not planning on putting forth the effort.
Of the seven commissioners present at the meeting, one understood our goal and supported us hands down, two offered lots for placement of the house if it could be moved, but voted against us anyhow, and another was very torn on the issue. They all emphatically requested that we submit our research to the Austin History Center, which we will do.
Basically, the new zoning for West Campus comes down to this: The City agreed to stop screwing developers who bought non-hisorically-zoned and/or non-high-density-zoned land in certain chunks near UT in return for protecting still-fully-intact historical neighnorhoods in danger of developer encroachment (Hyde Park, and Heritage, which, incidentally, is where the owner of the Haus lives). It's basically a pact-with-the-devil type situation, as many commissioners live in these sought-after historical-but-not-protected neighborhoods, and the developers could have really been unpleasant about it, so, West Campus is scorched earth for historical property, basically.
The one vote for us was emphatic, and the three other commissioners basically sung the same song -- you're right, you've made compelling arguments for saving the house, but (a) the owner does not support it , which requires a much higher standard of historical import, and (b) the buyer intends to build high-density housing on the lot and we promised to stop doing this. Sorry.
Realistically, this was going to happen at the City Council if it didn't happen here, so.
Amusing side notes:
The Owner approached blanu and repeated the request that we submit the data to the history center. She also refrained from making ad hominem attacks against me this time, which I very much appreciated.
The Purchaser approached me and gave me his card and seems interested in taking up our leases until they get the right demo/building permits, because, seriously, uh, we are tenants that in different situations landlords would compete for.
So, the actual movement asks the owners to seek someone who'd be willing to eat the cost to move it to a lot (and two lots were proposed, one which already is historically zoned, and therefore worthless to developers!) so the Haus might still have a chance to survive, but not in West Campus.
I'm not as sad as I feared, overall. I was realistic going into this whole thing, and was pretty certain that we'd lose at the City Council. I hoped we'd get past Planning, but they have a lot of deals binding them down. It's a happy-ish ending. We fought a good fight, we reminded the Planning Commission of some painful sacrifices they've made, and we can sleep at night knowing that we didn't roll over and let it die without this.

It's important to have people show up and sign up in support of our saving DasHaus. The secondary speakers can not speak, but just say they support the primary speaker (yes, I watched it on public access TV).
We'll also need a to borrow a projector from one of you projector people, and I'll probably need a ride.

OK, so, the current theme is to wedge religion in to scientific debate and lecture, right? So, I think it's only fair if part of church services include lectures on the theories of creation (big bang, abiogenesis, and evolution) and for cryin' out loud, a few basic logic lessons!

Border Security
A man carrying a home-made sword and what looked like a blood-stained chainsaw was allowed into the US from Canada, the Associated Press reports.The news agency says Gregory Despres' weapons were confiscated, before US custom officials in Calais, Maine, let him cross the border on 25 April.
The next day he became a murder suspect after bodies of his two neighbours were found in his hometown in Canada.
Mr Despres, 22, was arrested on 27 April and is now awaiting extradition.
note to customs officials: people who look like this should prolly raise your awareness level.
People who look like this, carrying a HOMEMADE, BLOODY, CHAINSAW-SWORD, brass knuckles, a knife, and a hatchet, should probably NOT be permitted to cross a border, incoming or outgoing.

Koran Handling Policy
Brig Gen Jay Hood, commander at Guantanamo, said in his report: "We defined mishandling as touching, holding or the treatment of a Koran in a manner inconsistent with policy or procedure.He confirmed that five of these alleged mishandling incidents by US guards did take place.
In one instance, a guard was said to have urinated near an air vent.
The wind allegedly blew his urine through the vent, soiling one detainee and his Koran.

Cricket
So, I lived in a cricket country for two years, which means I have a vague understanding of the sport -- it's like baseball, but slower. It's a sport you have to be born into, I think.
From the BBC news, here's an excerpt from cricket news:
Second Test, Jamaica, day four (close): Pakistan 374 & 309 v West Indies 404 & 114-6 ScorecardLara returns to the dressing room
Kaneria's haul included the prize scalp of Brian LaraPakistan were in sight of their first Test win in the West Indies since 1988 after reducing the home side to 114-6 on the fourth day in Jamaica.
Leg-spinner Danish Kaneria took 4-36 as the home side's top order collapsed in pursuit of a target of 280.
Brian Lara and Shivnarine Chanderpaul were both dismissed for ducks and only Devon Smith, with 49, offered prolonged resistance before he was caught behind.
Inzamam-ul-Haq earlier made 117 not out in Pakistan's total of 309 all out.
It was Inzamam's 22nd Test century and underlined his importance to a side which was beaten by 276 in the first Test in Barbados.
Pakistan resumed on 223-4 but their tail did not last long once Tino Best had ended a fifth wicket stand of 73 between Inzamam and Shahid Afridi by having Afridi caught by Smith for 43.
Seriously. WTF?!?

Welcome to Jamrock
Jamaica continues its downwards spiral -- the daily murder average is inching up to 7 per day:
A STAGGERING 746 Jamaicans have been murdered since the start of the year, 193 more than for the corresponding period last year.Police records show that the majority of the victims, 555, were killed by the gun. Sixty-nine women are numbered among the dead.
The month of May has seen the highest number of homicides with 167, making it one of the bloodiest in the nation's history. This is followed by March with 157, January with 145 and April 127. With 155 murders, October was the bloodiest month in 2004.
An average of seven Jamaicans were killed every day last week, bringing to 49, the total number of homicides for the week ending June 4. At least nine persons have been killed since the start of the week, with two double murders recorded since Sunday.
Update
For comparison, the City of Austin (roughly 600k) had 26 murders in 2004. Running the numbers quickly, that'd be equivalent to a pop of 2 mil (such as Ja) having 43 murders. Jamaica had more than that last week.

general update
I feel like it's been a while since I gave a substantive post; mainly because most things are just continuing apace right now. The $job is back to normal pace now post-conference, which is nice. The weekends I've been helping Dave-N-Amy clear their newly-acquired land between Liberty Hill and Lampasas, North of Austin -- it's great fun hacking away underbrush with my machete, moving large rocks around, and decent exercise to boot.
Grad school plans are moving again; I've gotten my loan accepted for next year (w00t, debt, yay), and am more actively watching DC job lists and pondering again moving out there, in terms of logistics and housing.
The house is still standing, the next meeting is the 14th in front of the Planning Commission, then City Council will take it on the 23rd with the recommendations of both the Historic Landmark Committee (which was a yes) and the Planning Commission, so we'll see.
No big haus projects of recent due to both my nearing exit from Austin, the ongoing battle to save it, and being dead tired or too busy. I putz in the yard and keep it clean, but my tomatoes are getting gnawed on by some bug, the peppers never came up (and wouldn't have gotten enough sun anyhow) and I put some over-"ripe" potatoes in the groun and they're very happy, but I don't think it's the right time of year for them.
Many various fun activities, mainly weekend-based, have and hopefully will continue to occur. Texas may be as hot as Ja in the summer, but there's so much happy activity and cool stuffs to do here...
Alright; I spent about 10 hours out on the land today, so I'm burnt and dead tired.

Rebate Hassle/Fraud : Circuit City?
Since returning to the States, I've bought 3 things from Circuit City, all were special deals through rebates.
All three times, there've been glitches in the rebate process which would have led to me failing to receive the rebate had I not followed through with web and eventually phone calls to deal with it. I've recieved (or, been promised to receive, in the most recent case).
It occurs to me that if there is organized rebate fraud, the way to combat it is to begin posting about it in the hopes that a pattern begins to emerge.
I notice that this (even this most recent problem I had) does indeed show up on Ed's Gripe Log

"Pregnant? Need Help?"
So, I've been seeing a lot of "Pregnant? Need Help?" signs around town, and just saw an ad for one while watching Daily Show promising that they're a resource, and they "won't judge" or "force you to do anything". I've googled them, and while I didn't turn up any dirt, it's a definitely anti-abortion religious organization, which is hosting Oliver North at their annual benefit. It seems to be another of the "pro-birth" style groups, more interested in reducing abortions through adoption (which is fine, mind you, but should be part of the whole) instead of combining it with education on safe sex and such.
Anyhow, I don't really know, and their websites are intentionally opaque on the subject, has anyone heard anything about these type of organizations?

Newsflash! Deep Throat not liked by former Nixon aides
G. Gordon Liddy, a Nixon operative who engineered the 1972 break-in at the Democratic National Campaign headquarters in the Watergate building in Washington, and served four and a half years in jail for it, said Wednesday that Felt "violated the ethics of the law enforcement profession." ... "If he possessed evidence of wrongdoing, he was honor-bound to take that to a grand jury and secure an indictment, not to selectively leak it to a single news source," Liddy, now a popular conservative radio talk show host, told CNN television....
Leonard Garment, Nixon's chief legal counsellor from 1969-1973, said he thought Felt kept his role in Watergate secret for 31 years "because he felt that what he had done could well be considered dishonorable."Garment said the question was "when government persons, having private, secret, confidential information, are justified to become the whistle-blower and defy or ignore their sworn obligation to maintain security and go to the press with it."
Chuck Colson, the head of White House communications in 1972, Felt could have helped America avoid a wrenching political crisis, the ripple effect of which was felt in the country for decades, if he had gone through proper channels.
"Mark Felt could have stopped Watergate," said Colson, who served time in jail and is now an evangelical Christian broadcaster. "He was in a position of that kind of influence. Instead, he goes out and basically undermines the administration."
So, wait, let me clear this up -- people who were involved in the scandal, on the illegal action side, many of whom served jail time after their condemnation by our legal system, are pissed at the whistleblower.
Pardon me if this is absolutely silly.
Evidentally, Liddy added:
"It certainly does not make him a hero. Right now, he's a pitiful, pathetic old man who can hardly stand and whose mind is there sometimes and is not at other times,"
Bitter much?
