MERKEL REMAINS HOPEFUL
German Chancellor Angela Merkel has stated she is “still convinced” a debt deal that would keep Greece in the eurozone could be reached. Merkel stated that in February, Greece had "agreed to fulfil its commitments to bondholders." Approaching the June 30 deadline for repayment, Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis has said his nation hold a "political and moral duty" to solve its debt crisis. The IMF’s Christine Lagarde noted that there would be "no period of grace" for Greek debt repayment.
RAMADAN FASTING BANNED
China has banned Ramadan fasting for civil servants and in schools in the Muslim-majority Xinjiang region. Dilxat Rexit, spokesman for the exiled World Uyghur Congress, stated the “policies that prohibit religious fasting are a provocation and will only lead to instability and conflict." China’s ruling Communist party attempts to ban the fasting practice yearly as part of its restrictions on Uighur Muslims in the region. Estimated at around 25 million, Uighur Muslims, are accused of “religious extremism” by the Chinese government.
NEW NATO EXERCISES
NATO Chief Jens Stoltenberg announced the alliance would be beginning its largest exercises ever in the Baltic Sea. Speaking while in attendance of the first exercise of NATO's new rapid reaction force in Zagan, Poland, Stoltenberg stated that NATO countries are facing new security threats caused from Russia and ISIS. His comments come after Russia announced its plans to begin early warning radar tests and add over 40 intercontinental ballistic missiles to its nuclear arsenal. Russia criticised the US’ plan to arm NATO states bordering Russia.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE ATTACK
Somali security forces have stopped an attempted suicide attacked at a political conference. They killed three gunman who were driving an explosive-filled car. Al Shabab have claimed responsibility for the attack. Sheikh Abdiasis Abu Musab spokesman has claimed the groups’ gunmen were fighting inside the conference, which officials have denied.

Although Atwood's politics are commonly described as being left-wing, she has indicated in interviews that she considers herself a Red Tory in the historical sense of the term. Atwood and her partner Graeme Gibson are members of the Green Party of Canada (GPC) and strong supporters of GPC leader Elizabeth May. Atwood has strong views on environmental issues, and she and her partner are the joint honorary presidents of the Rare Bird Club within BirdLife International. She has been chair of the Writers' Union of Canada and president of PEN Canada, and is currently a vice president of PEN International. In the 2008 federal election she attended a rally for the Bloc Québécois, a Quebec separatist party, because of her support for their position on the arts, and stated that she would vote for the party if she lived in Quebec. In a Globe and Mail editorial, she urged Canadians to vote for any other party to stop a Conservative majority.
During the debate in 1987 over a free trade agreement between Canada and the United States, Atwood spoke out against the deal, and wrote an essay opposing the agreement.[31]
Atwood celebrated her 70th birthday at a gala dinner at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario, marking the final stop of her international tour to promote The Year of the Flood. She stated that she had chosen to attend the event because the city has been home to one of Canada's most ambitious environmental reclamation programs: "When people ask if there's hope (for the environment), I say, if Sudbury can do it, so can you. Having been a symbol of desolation, it's become a symbol of hope."[32]
Atwood's reputed left wing attitudes may have been changing in recent times. Despite calls for a boycott by Gazan students, Atwood visited Israel and accepted the $1,000,000 Dan David Prize along with Indian author Amitav Ghosh at Tel Aviv University in May 2010.[33] Atwood commented that "we don't do cultural boycotts."[34] She is a supporter of convicted felon Conrad Black in his attempts to remain a member of the Order of Canada.[35]
In the Wake of the Flood, a documentary film by Canadian director Ron Mann released in October 2010, followed Atwood on the unusual book tour for her novel The Year of the Flood. During this innovative book tour, Atwood created a theatrical version of her novel, with performers borrowed from the local areas she was visiting. The documentary is described as "a fly-on-the-wall film vérité."[36]
Since February 2013, Atwood made it clear via Twitter that she strongly opposed the University of Toronto putting in an artificial turf field and hinted that she might write the university out of her will if it proceeded with the plan. This was not the first time she had openly challenged the university.

In the 1980s in Britain, Rushdie was a supporter of the Labour Party and championed measures to end racial discrimination and alienation of immigrant youth and racial minorities.
Rushdie supported the 1999 NATO bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, leading the leftist Tariq Ali to label Rushdie and other "warrior writers" as "the belligerati'".[69] He was supportive of the US-led campaign to remove the Taliban in Afghanistan, which began in 2001, but was a vocal critic of the 2003 war in Iraq. He has stated that while there was a "case to be made for the removal of Saddam Hussein", US unilateral military intervention was unjustifiable.[70]
In the wake of the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy in March 2006—which many considered an echo of the death threats and fatwā that followed publication of The Satanic Verses in 1989—Rushdie signed the manifesto Together Facing the New Totalitarianism, a statement warning of the dangers of religious extremism. The Manifesto was published in the left-leaning French weekly Charlie Hebdo in March 2006.[71]
In 2006, Rushdie stated that he supported comments by the then-Leader of the House of Commons Jack Straw, who criticised the wearing of the niqab (a veil that covers all of the face except the eyes). Rushdie stated that his three sisters would never wear the veil. He said, "I think the battle against the veil has been a long and continuing battle against the limitation of women, so in that sense I'm completely on Straw's side."[72]
Critic Terry Eagleton, a former admirer of Rushdie's work, attacked him for his positions, saying he "cheered on the Pentagon's criminal ventures in Iraq and Afghanistan".[73] Eagleton subsequently apologised for having misrepresented Rushdie's views.

Could animals have raised human children?
Subscribe to our channel: http://goo.gl/9CwQhg
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
If you have ever read Rudyard Kipling’s “The Jungle Book”, you’re probably familiar with the fact that the book’s hero Mowgli was raised by wolves. If you’re familiar with Tarzan, he was raised by apes, and once he met other humans like him, he struggled to adapt and communicate in the beginning, but eventually learned. Even though the books were a work of fiction, the idea of being raised by animals isn’t far-fetched and has actually happened and continues to this day. What we would call these book characters would be “feral”, which is a term you’ve probably associated with cats or dogs. As humans, we are shaped and developed based on our upbringing. If we were raised in a household that speaks English and lives the American culture, then that is how we turn out. If we were raised bilingual, then we can speak two languages. The same goes for feral children.
Unfortunately, the majority of feral children come from tragedy or abusive households. There have been many accounts of children being abandoned, and then they are taken in by a pack of animals who raise them. When these children finally make human contact, they act more like the animals who raised them and often struggle to adapt. In most cases, these children are sent to a clinic or a hospital for treatment and adjusting them to human society. The sadder cases are those children who actually grew up with parents, but neglected them and leaving the animals to raise them.
But feral children aren’t always raised by animals. Sometimes feral children are neglected to the point to where they never psychologically age, and then you have children who still wear diapers and act like infants. Or, through abuse, you have feral children who never learned how to speak and have to be rehabilitated with speech therapy. It’s hard to wrap around the concept of anyone who wants to hurt and neglect their child, but it is a situation that unfortunately happens all too often. Many of the children in this video have been raised by wolves, dogs, birds, or by the elements. For example, a girl in Cambodia disappeared into the jungle in 1979, and she wasn’t found until 2007. Despite efforts to adapt her to society and live a normal human life, she eventually ran away back into the jungle where she likely felt safe and the most comfortable. A girl in the Ukraine was raised by dogs, and despite being treated in numerous hospitals and clinics, she has stated that she feels the most comfortable with other dogs instead of humans.
As you watch this video, you will realize that feral children are a real thing, and there are many more children like this who are living in the woods, living neglected in the homes of the people who were supposed to love them, and they are desperately crying for help. They are going to need help before it’s too late and they reach the point of being unable to turn around from their upbringing.

Ben Dixon, Yvette Carnell and I discuss the recent NBC interview by Rachel Dolezal, the woman who spent alot of years pretending to be black.
In her first major interview since the scandal broke, Dolezal told The Today Show that she is not involved in “some mockery blackface performance,” but has instead identified as black for most of her life. Dolezal recently resigned from her post as the head of the NAACP in Spokane Washington after it was revealed that she is not, in fact, African American. But she was careful in a previous interview to state that she considers herself black, not African American.
Dolezal isn’t apologizing for what happened and has, instead, stated that she wouldn’t change a thing. She says that most of her life, she has had to make choices for “survival.” She also seems to feel that being the mother of two black boys, it’s OK for her to deeply connect with her black identity and connection with the African American community.
Speaking with Matt Lauer, Dolezal said that she was not making a mockery of the black community with her decision to identify as a black woman. She said that she certainly was not promoting any form of blackface.

DemocracyNow! host Amy Goodman told CNN’s Brian Stelter that his network and most other mainstream media were “manufacturing consent” for Donald Trump by giving him more airtime than other candidates.
On Sunday’s edition of CNN’s Reliable Sources, Goodman called out CNN for broadcasting an empty stage in anticipation of Donald Trump’s press conference on election night last Tuesday without ever mentioning that Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders was giving a speech to his supporters at the same time.
“Let’s look at Super Tuesday 3, you had major coverage here at CNN, at MSNBC, at Fox — all the networks across all through he night as the polls are closing,” she recalled. “You see the concession speeches and the great victory speeches, you see Hillary Clinton, Ted Cruz, Kasich, you see Donald Trump. You’re waiting here at CNN, at MSNBC. They said he’s going to hold a news conference… and that’s it.”
“Where was Bernie Sanders?” she wondered. “Well, in fact, Bernie Sanders was in Phoenix, Arizona before thousands of people and as the networks were waiting for Donald Trump and waiting and all the pundits are weighing in, they don’t even say that Bernie Sanders is about to speak.”
Goodman pointed out that on another election night, CNN had recorded Hillary Clinton’s victory speech and broadcast it later so that the network could air Trump’s election night press conference where “he sold his steaks and his magazines and his water and everything else.”
“This time, they didn’t even record and show after Bernie Sanders,” she observed. “He was completely absent.”
Using a term often used by political activist Noam Chomsky, Goodman said that the media “manufactures consent.”
“This is the anniversary of the Iraq war,” he reminded Stelter. “I think this exposure for Trump is frightening. Yes, there is now some critical coverage. But for the year 2015, as the snowball rolled and it got larger and larger, he got 23 times the coverage of Bernie Sanders.”

Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie (Hindi: अहमद सलमान रुशदी (Devanagari), احمد سلمان رشدی (Nastaʿlīq); 
/sælˈmɑːn ˈrʊʃdi/; born 19 June 1947) is a British Indian novelist and essayist. His second novel, Midnight's Children (1981), won the Booker Prize in 1981. Much of his fiction is set on the Indian subcontinent. He is said to combine magical realism with historical fiction; his work is concerned with the many connections, disruptions and migrations between East and West.
His fourth novel, The Satanic Verses (1988), was the centre of a major controversy, provoking protests from Muslims in several countries, some violent. Death threats were made against him, including a fatwā issued by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, on 14 February 1989.
Rushdie was appointed Commandeur dans Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of France in January 1999. In June 2007, Queen Elizabeth II dubbed him Knight Bachelor for his services to literature. In 2008, The Times ranked him thirteenth on its list of the fifty greatest British writers since 1945.

Amy Goodman (born April 13, 1957) is an American progressive broadcast journalist, syndicated columnist, investigative reporter and author. Goodman is the host of Democracy Now!, an independent global news program broadcast daily on radio, television and the Internet.
Goodman was born in Bay Shore, New York on April 13, 1957 to George, an ophthalmologist, and Dorothy (née Bock) Goodman, and graduated from Bay Shore High School in 1975. She graduated from Radcliffe College in 1984 with a degree in anthropology. She spent a year studying at the College of the Atlantic in Bar Harbor, Maine.
Goodman had been news director of Pacifica Radio station WBAI in New York City for over a decade when she co-founded Democracy Now! The War and Peace Report in 1996. Since then, Democracy Now! has been called "probably the most significant progressive news institution that has come around in some time" by professor and media critic Robert McChesney.
In 2001, the show was temporarily pulled off the air, as a result of a conflict with a group of Pacifica Radio board members and Pacifica staff members and listeners. During that time, it moved to a converted firehouse from which it broadcast until November 13, 2009. The new Democracy Now! studio is located in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan.

Wonder Woman is a fictional character, a DC Comics superheroine created by William Moulton Marston. She first appeared in All Star Comics #8 (December 1941). The Wonder Woman title has been published by DC Comics almost continuously except for a brief hiatus in 1986.
Wonder Woman is a warrior Princess of the Amazons (based on the Amazons of Greek mythology) and was created by Marston, an American, as a "distinctly feminist role model whose mission was to bring the Amazon ideals of love, peace, and sexual equality to a world torn by the hatred of men." Known in her homeland as Diana of Themyscira, her powers include superhuman strength, flight (even though the original Wonder Woman did not have this ability), super-speed, super-stamina, and super-agility. She is highly proficient in hand-to-hand combat and in the art of tactical warfare. She also possesses animal-like cunning skills and a natural rapport with animals, which has been presented as an actual ability to communicate with the animal kingdom. She uses her Lasso of Truth, which forces those bound by it to tell the truth, a pair of indestructible bracelets, a tiara which serves as a projectile, and, in some stories, an invisible airplane.

He has stated that while there was a "case to be made for the removal of Saddam Hussein", US unilateral military intervention was unjustifiable.[70] In the wake of the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy in March 2006—which many considered an echo of the death threats and fatwā that followed publication of The Satanic Verses in 1989—Rushdie signed the manifesto Together Facing the New Totalitarianism, a statement warning of the dangers of religious extremism. The Manifesto was published in the left-leaning French weekly Charlie Hebdo in March 2006.[71] In 2006, Rushdie stated that he supported comments by the then-Leader of the House of Commons Jack Straw, who criticised the wearing of the niqab (a veil that covers all of the face except the eyes). Rushdie stated that his three sisters would never wear the veil. He said, "I think the battle against the veil has been a long and continuing battle against the limitation of women, so in that sense I'm completely on Straw's side."[72] Critic Terry Eagleton, a former admirer of Rushdie's work, attacked him for his positions, saying he "cheered on the Pentagon's criminal ventures in Iraq and Afghanistan".[73] Eagleton subsequently apologised for having misrepresented Rushdie's views. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salman_rushdie -

10 Disturbing Cases Of Feral Children10 Disturbing Cases Of Feral Children
Could animals have raised human children? Subscribe to our channel: http://goo.gl/9CwQhg ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description: If you have ever read Rudyard Kipling’s “The Jungle Book”, you’re probably familiar with the fact that the book’s hero Mowgli was raised by wolves. If you’re familiar with Tarzan, he was raised by apes, and once he met other humans like him, he struggled to adapt and communicate in the beginning, but eventually learned. Even though the books were a work of fiction, the idea of being raised by animals isn’t far-fetched and has actually happened and continues to this day. What we would call these book characters would be “feral”, which is a term you’ve probably associated with cats or dogs. As humans, we are shaped and developed based on our upbringing. If we were raised in a household that speaks English and lives the American culture, then that is how we turn out. If we were raised bilingual, then we can speak two languages. The same goes for feral children. Unfortunately, the majority of feral children come from tragedy or abusive households. There have been many accounts of children being abandoned, and then they are taken in by a pack of animals who raise them. When these children finally make human contact, they act more like the animals who raised them and often struggle to adapt. In most cases, these children are sent to a clinic or a hospital for treatment and adjusting them to human society. The sadder cases are those children who actually grew up with parents, but neglected them and leaving the animals to raise them. But feral children aren’t always raised by animals. Sometimes feral children are neglected to the point to where they never psychologically age, and then you have children who still wear diapers and act like infants. Or, through abuse, you have feral children who never learned how to speak and have to be rehabilitated with speech therapy. It’s hard to wrap around the concept of anyone who wants to hurt and neglect their child, but it is a situation that unfortunately happens all too often. Many of the children in this video have been raised by wolves, dogs, birds, or by the elements. For example, a girl in Cambodia disappeared into the jungle in 1979, and she wasn’t found until 2007. Despite efforts to adapt her to society and live a normal human life, she eventually ran away back into the jungle where she likely felt safe and the most comfortable. A girl in the Ukraine was raised by dogs, and despite being treated in numerous hospitals and clinics, she has stated that she feels the most comfortable with other dogs instead of humans. As you watch this video, you will realize that feral children are a real thing, and there are many more children like this who are living in the woods, living neglected in the homes of the people who were supposed to love them, and they are desperately crying for help. They are going to need help before it’s too late and they reach the point of being unable to turn around from their upbringing. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRichest.org Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheRichest_Com Instagram: http://instagram.com/therichest ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Featuring: Raised By Birds The Romanian Dog Boy Cambodian Jungle Girl The Wolf Girls The Mowgli Girl Ugandan Monkey Boy Raised By Dogs Ukrainian Dog Girl The Girl in the Window The Wild Child ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.therichest.com/ -

Rachel Dolezal tells NBC she's been black since she was fiveRachel Dolezal tells NBC she's been black since she was five
Ben Dixon, Yvette Carnell and I discuss the recent NBC interview by Rachel Dolezal, the woman who spent alot of years pretending to be black. In her first major interview since the scandal broke, Dolezal told The Today Show that she is not involved in “some mockery blackface performance,” but has instead identified as black for most of her life. Dolezal recently resigned from her post as the head of the NAACP in Spokane Washington after it was revealed that she is not, in fact, African American. But she was careful in a previous interview to state that she considers herself black, not African American. Dolezal isn’t apologizing for what happened and has, instead, stated that she wouldn’t change a thing. She says that most of her life, she has had to make choices for “survival.” She also seems to feel that being the mother of two black boys, it’s OK for her to deeply connect with her black identity and connection with the African American community. Speaking with Matt Lauer, Dolezal said that she was not making a mockery of the black community with her decision to identify as a black woman. She said that she certainly was not promoting any form of blackface. -

Amy Goodman rips CNN for airing Trump’s empty stage instead of Sanders’ speechAmy Goodman rips CNN for airing Trump’s empty stage instead of Sanders’ speech
DemocracyNow! host Amy Goodman told CNN’s Brian Stelter that his network and most other mainstream media were “manufacturing consent” for Donald Trump by giving him more airtime than other candidates. On Sunday’s edition of CNN’s Reliable Sources, Goodman called out CNN for broadcasting an empty stage in anticipation of Donald Trump’s press conference on election night last Tuesday without ever mentioning that Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders was giving a speech to his supporters at the same time. “Let’s look at Super Tuesday 3, you had major coverage here at CNN, at MSNBC, at Fox — all the networks across all through he night as the polls are closing,” she recalled. “You see the concession speeches and the great victory speeches, you see Hillary Clinton, Ted Cruz, Kasich, you see Donald Trump. You’re waiting here at CNN, at MSNBC. They said he’s going to hold a news conference… and that’s it.” “Where was Bernie Sanders?” she wondered. “Well, in fact, Bernie Sanders was in Phoenix, Arizona before thousands of people and as the networks were waiting for Donald Trump and waiting and all the pundits are weighing in, they don’t even say that Bernie Sanders is about to speak.” Goodman pointed out that on another election night, CNN had recorded Hillary Clinton’s victory speech and broadcast it later so that the network could air Trump’s election night press conference where “he sold his steaks and his magazines and his water and everything else.” “This time, they didn’t even record and show after Bernie Sanders,” she observed. “He was completely absent.” Using a term often used by political activist Noam Chomsky, Goodman said that the media “manufactures consent.” “This is the anniversary of the Iraq war,” he reminded Stelter. “I think this exposure for Trump is frightening. Yes, there is now some critical coverage. But for the year 2015, as the snowball rolled and it got larger and larger, he got 23 times the coverage of Bernie Sanders.” -

181:45Toni Morrison Interview: Books, Beloved, The Bluest Eye, Essays, Influences, On Writing (2001)
Toni Morrison Interview: Books, Beloved, The Bluest Eye, Essays, Influences, On Writing (2001)Toni Morrison Interview: Books, Beloved, The Bluest Eye, Essays, Influences, On Writing (2001)
Toni Morrison (born Chloe Ardelia Wofford; February 18, 1931) is an American novelist, editor, and professor. Her novels are known for their epic themes, vivid dialogue, and richly detailed characters. Among her best known novels are The Bluest Eye, Sula, Song of Solomon and Beloved. She also was commissioned to write the libretto for a new opera, Margaret Garner, first performed in 2005. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1988 for Beloved and the Nobel Prize in 1993. On 29 May 2012, she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Morrison began writing fiction as part of an informal group of poets and writers at Howard who met to discuss their work. She went to one meeting with a short story about a black girl who longed to have blue eyes. She later developed the story as her first novel, The Bluest Eye (1970). She wrote it while raising two children and teaching at Howard.[5] In 1975 her novel Sula (1973) was nominated for the National Book Award. Her third novel, Song of Solomon (1977), brought her national attention. The book was a main selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club, the first novel by a black writer to be so chosen since Richard Wright's Native Son in 1940. It won the National Book Critics Circle Award. In 1987 Morrison's novel Beloved became a critical success. When the novel failed to win the National Book Award as well as the National Book Critics Circle Award, 48 black critics and writers[8] protested the omission.[5][9] Shortly afterward, it won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction and the American Book Award. That same year, Morrison took a visiting professorship at Bard College. Beloved was adapted into the 1998 film of the same name starring Oprah Winfrey and Danny Glover. Morrison later used Margaret Garner's life story again in the libretto for a new opera, Margaret Garner, with music by Richard Danielpour. In May 2006, The New York Times Book Review named Beloved the best American novel published in the previous twenty-five years. In 1993 Morrison was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. Her citation reads: Toni Morrison, "who in novels characterized by visionary force and poetic import, gives life to an essential aspect of American reality." She is currently the last American to have been awarded the honor. Shortly afterward, a fire destroyed her Rockland County, New York home.[2][10] In 1996 the National Endowment for the Humanities selected Morrison for the Jefferson Lecture, the U.S. federal government's highest honor for achievement in the humanities.[11] Morrison's lecture, entitled "The Future of Time: Literature and Diminished Expectations,"[12] began with the aphorism, "Time, it seems, has no future." She cautioned against the misuse of history to diminish expectations of the future.[13] Morrison was honored with the 1996 National Book Foundation's Medal of Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, which is awarded to a writer "who has enriched our literary heritage over a life of service, or a corpus of work."[14] In 2000, The Bluest Eye was chosen as a selection for Oprah's Book Club.[15] Although her novels typically concentrate on black women, Morrison does not identify her works as feminist.[16] She has stated that she thinks "it's off-putting to some readers, who may feel that I'm involved in writing some kind of feminist tract. I don't subscribe to patriarchy, and I don't think it should be substituted with matriarchy. I think it's a question of equitable access, and opening doors to all sorts of things."[16] Critics, however, have referred to her body of work as exemplifying characteristics of "postmodern feminism" by "altering Euro-American dichotomies by rewriting a history written by mainstream historians" and by her usage of shifting narration in Beloved and Paradise.[17] In addition to her novels, Morrison has also co-written books for children with her younger son, Slade Morrison, who worked as a painter and musician. Slade died on December 22, 2010, aged 45. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toni_Morrison

But she was careful in a previous interview to state that she considers herself black, not African American. Dolezal isn’t apologizing for what happened and has, instead, stated that she wouldn’t change a thing. She says that most of her life, she has had to make choices for “survival.” She al... -

Kaley Cuoco: Destroyer of Equal Rights - A Dose of Buckley
Kaley Cuoco, the blonde chick in the Big Bang Theory, has stated she's not a feminist. Apparently this is bad, and all women should be feminists all the time.

Amy Goodman rips CNN for airing Trump’s empty stage instead of Sanders’ speech
DemocracyNow! host Amy Goodman told CNN’s Brian Stelter that his network and most other mainstream media were “manufacturing consent” for Donald Trump by giving him more airtime than other candidates. On Sunday’s edition of CNN’s Reliable Sources, Goodman called out CNN for broadcasting an empty stage in anticipation of Donald Trump’s press conference on election night last Tuesday without ever mentioning that Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders was giving a speech to his supporters at the same time. “Let’s look at Super Tuesday 3, you had major coverage here at CNN, at MSNBC, at Fox — all the networks across all through he night as the polls are closing,” she recalled. “You see the concession speeches and the great victory speeches, you see Hillary Clinton, Ted Cruz, Kasich, you see Do... -

Super Mario Bros. The Koopalings
Larry Koopa has been stated to be the youngest of the Koopalings. He seems to have an interest in sports as seen in many games; oddly, he hasn't appeared in any sports game. Additionally, he doesn't possess a lot of stamina despite his liking of sports. Though he does play tennis with a fireball in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, he has also shown to be bad-tempered or bratty in New Super Mario Bros Wii. His main color representation is sky blue. Larry was known as Cheatsy Koopa in the cartoons, since if he can't win, he will try to cheat by any means to win. Morton Koopa Jr. is the second youngest of the Koopalings despite his very large size. He seems to possess a cantankerous personality.

MERKEL REMAINS HOPEFUL

Although Atwood's politics are commonly described as being left-wing, she has indicated in interviews that she considers herself a Red Tory in the historical sense of the term. Atwood and her partner Graeme Gibson are members of the Green Party of Canada (GPC) and strong supporters of GPC leader Elizabeth May. Atwood has strong views on environmental issues, and she and her partner are the joint honorary presidents of the Rare Bird Club within BirdLife International. She has been chair of the Writers' Union of Canada and president of PEN Canada, and is currently a vice president of PEN International. In the 2008 federal election she attended a rally for the Bloc Québécois, a Quebec separatist party, because of her support for their position on the arts, and stated that she would vote for the party if she lived in Quebec. In a Globe and Mail editorial, she urged Canadians to vote for any other party to stop a Conservative majority.
During the debate in 1987 over a free trade agreement between Canada and the United States, Atwood spoke out against the deal, and wrote an essay opposing the agreement.[31]
Atwood celebrated her 70th birthday at a gala dinner at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario, marking the final stop of her international tour to promote The Year of the Flood. She stated that she had chosen to attend the event because the city has been home to one of Canada's most ambitious environmental reclamation programs: "When people ask if there's hope (for the environment), I say, if Sudbury can do it, so can you. Having been a symbol of desolation, it's become a symbol of hope."[32]
Atwood's reputed left wing attitudes may have been changing in recent times. Despite calls for a boycott by Gazan students, Atwood visited Israel and accepted the $1,000,000 Dan David Prize along with Indian author Amitav Ghosh at Tel Aviv University in May 2010.[33] Atwood commented that "we don't do cultural boycotts."[34] She is a supporter of convicted felon Conrad Black in his attempts to remain a member of the Order of Canada.[35]
In the Wake of the Flood, a documentary film by Canadian director Ron Mann released in October 2010, followed Atwood on the unusual book tour for her novel The Year of the Flood. During this innovative book tour, Atwood created a theatrical version of her novel, with performers borrowed from the local areas she was visiting. The documentary is described as "a fly-on-the-wall film vérité."[36]
Since February 2013, Atwood made it clear via Twitter that she strongly opposed the University of Toronto putting in an artificial turf field and hinted that she might write the university out of her will if it proceeded with the plan. This was not the first time she had openly challenged the university.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Atwood
In the 1980s in Britain, Rushdie was a supporter of the Labour Party and championed measures to end racial discrimination and alienation of immigrant youth and racial minorities.
Rushdie supported the 1999 NATO bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, leading the leftist Tariq Ali to label Rushdie and other "warrior writers" as "the belligerati'".[69] He was supportive of the US-led campaign to remove the Taliban in Afghanistan, which began in 2001, but was a vocal critic of the 2003 war in Iraq. He has stated that while there was a "case to be made for the removal of Saddam Hussein", US unilateral military intervention was unjustifiable.[70]
In the wake of the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy in March 2006—which many considered an echo of the death threats and fatwā that followed publication of The Satanic Verses in 1989—Rushdie signed the manifesto Together Facing the New Totalitarianism, a statement warning of the dangers of religious extremism. The Manifesto was published in the left-leaning French weekly Charlie Hebdo in March 2006.[71]
In 2006, Rushdie stated that he supported comments by the then-Leader of the House of Commons Jack Straw, who criticised the wearing of the niqab (a veil that covers all of the face except the eyes). Rushdie stated that his three sisters would never wear the veil. He said, "I think the battle against the veil has been a long and continuing battle against the limitation of women, so in that sense I'm completely on Straw's side."[72]
Critic Terry Eagleton, a former admirer of Rushdie's work, attacked him for his positions, saying he "cheered on the Pentagon's criminal ventures in Iraq and Afghanistan".[73] Eagleton subsequently apologised for having misrepresented Rushdie's views.

Description:
If you have ever read Rudyard Kipling’s “The Jungle Book”, you’re probably familiar with the fact that the book’s hero Mowgli was raised by wolves. If you’re familiar with Tarzan, he was raised by apes, and once he met other humans like him, he struggled to adapt and communicate in the beginning, but eventually learned. Even though the books were a work of fiction, the idea of being raised by animals isn’t far-fetched and has actually happened and continues to this day. What we would call these book characters would be “feral”, which is a term you’ve probably associated with cats or dogs. As humans, we are shaped and developed based on our upbringing. If we were raised in a household that speaks English and lives the American culture, then that is how we turn out. If we were raised bilingual, then we can speak two languages. The same goes for feral children.
Unfortunately, the majority of feral children come from tragedy or abusive households. There have been many accounts of children being abandoned, and then they are taken in by a pack of animals who raise them. When these children finally make human contact, they act more like the animals who raised them and often struggle to adapt. In most cases, these children are sent to a clinic or a hospital for treatment and adjusting them to human society. The sadder cases are those children who actually grew up with parents, but neglected them and leaving the animals to raise them.
But feral children aren’t always raised by animals. Sometimes feral children are neglected to the point to where they never psychologically age, and then you have children who still wear diapers and act like infants. Or, through abuse, you have feral children who never learned how to speak and have to be rehabilitated with speech therapy. It’s hard to wrap around the concept of anyone who wants to hurt and neglect their child, but it is a situation that unfortunately happens all too often. Many of the children in this video have been raised by wolves, dogs, birds, or by the elements. For example, a girl in Cambodia disappeared into the jungle in 1979, and she wasn’t found until 2007. Despite efforts to adapt her to society and live a normal human life, she eventually ran away back into the jungle where she likely felt safe and the most comfortable. A girl in the Ukraine was raised by dogs, and despite being treated in numerous hospitals and clinics, she has stated that she feels the most comfortable with other dogs instead of humans.
As you watch this video, you will realize that feral children are a real thing, and there are many more children like this who are living in the woods, living neglected in the homes of the people who were supposed to love them, and they are desperately crying for help. They are going to need help before it’s too late and they reach the point of being unable to turn around from their upbringing.

Ben Dixon, Yvette Carnell and I discuss the recent NBC interview by Rachel Dolezal, the woman who spent alot of years pretending to be black.
In her first major interview since the scandal broke, Dolezal told The Today Show that she is not involved in “some mockery blackface performance,” but has instead identified as black for most of her life. Dolezal recently resigned from her post as the head of the NAACP in Spokane Washington after it was revealed that she is not, in fact, African American. But she was careful in a previous interview to state that she considers herself black, not African American.
Dolezal isn’t apologizing for what happened and has, instead, stated that she wouldn’t change a thing. She says that most of her life, she has had to make choices for “survival.” She also seems to feel that being the mother of two black boys, it’s OK for her to deeply connect with her black identity and connection with the African American community.
Speaking with Matt Lauer, Dolezal said that she was not making a mockery of the black community with her decision to identify as a black woman. She said that she certainly was not promoting any form of blackface.

Amy Goodman rips CNN for airing Trump’s empty stage instead of Sanders’ speech

DemocracyNow! host Amy Goodman told CNN’s Brian Stelter that his network and most other mainstream media were “manufacturing consent” for Donald Trump by giving him more airtime than other candidates.
On Sunday’s edition of CNN’s Reliable Sources, Goodman called out CNN for broadcasting an empty stage in anticipation of Donald Trump’s press conference on election night last Tuesday without ever mentioning that Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders was giving a speech to his supporters at the same time.
“Let’s look at Super Tuesday 3, you had major coverage here at CNN, at MSNBC, at Fox — all the networks across all through he night as the polls are closing,” she recalled. “You see the concession speeches and the great victory speeches, you see Hillary Clinton, Ted Cruz, Kasich, you see Donald Trump. You’re waiting here at CNN, at MSNBC. They said he’s going to hold a news conference… and that’s it.”
“Where was Bernie Sanders?” she wondered. “Well, in fact, Bernie Sanders was in Phoenix, Arizona before thousands of people and as the networks were waiting for Donald Trump and waiting and all the pundits are weighing in, they don’t even say that Bernie Sanders is about to speak.”
Goodman pointed out that on another election night, CNN had recorded Hillary Clinton’s victory speech and broadcast it later so that the network could air Trump’s election night press conference where “he sold his steaks and his magazines and his water and everything else.”
“This time, they didn’t even record and show after Bernie Sanders,” she observed. “He was completely absent.”
Using a term often used by political activist Noam Chomsky, Goodman said that the media “manufactures consent.”
“This is the anniversary of the Iraq war,” he reminded Stelter. “I think this exposure for Trump is frightening. Yes, there is now some critical coverage. But for the year 2015, as the snowball rolled and it got larger and larger, he got 23 times the coverage of Bernie Sanders.”

Toni Morrison (born Chloe Ardelia Wofford; February 18, 1931) is an American novelist, editor, and professor. Her novels are known for their epic themes, vivid dialogue, and richly detailed characters. Among her best known novels are The Bluest Eye, Sula, Song of Solomon and Beloved. She also was commissioned to write the libretto for a new opera, Margaret Garner, first performed in 2005. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1988 for Beloved and the Nobel Prize in 1993. On 29 May 2012, she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Morrison began writing fiction as part of an informal group of poets and writers at Howard who met to discuss their work. She went to one meeting with a short story about a black girl who longed to have blue eyes. She later developed the story as her first novel, The Bluest Eye (1970). She wrote it while raising two children and teaching at Howard.[5]
In 1975 her novel Sula (1973) was nominated for the National Book Award. Her third novel, Song of Solomon (1977), brought her national attention. The book was a main selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club, the first novel by a black writer to be so chosen since Richard Wright's Native Son in 1940. It won the National Book Critics Circle Award.
In 1987 Morrison's novel Beloved became a critical success. When the novel failed to win the National Book Award as well as the National Book Critics Circle Award, 48 black critics and writers[8] protested the omission.[5][9] Shortly afterward, it won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction and the American Book Award. That same year, Morrison took a visiting professorship at Bard College.
Beloved was adapted into the 1998 film of the same name starring Oprah Winfrey and Danny Glover. Morrison later used Margaret Garner's life story again in the libretto for a new opera, Margaret Garner, with music by Richard Danielpour. In May 2006, The New York Times Book Review named Beloved the best American novel published in the previous twenty-five years.
In 1993 Morrison was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. Her citation reads: Toni Morrison, "who in novels characterized by visionary force and poetic import, gives life to an essential aspect of American reality." She is currently the last American to have been awarded the honor. Shortly afterward, a fire destroyed her Rockland County, New York home.[2][10]
In 1996 the National Endowment for the Humanities selected Morrison for the Jefferson Lecture, the U.S. federal government's highest honor for achievement in the humanities.[11] Morrison's lecture, entitled "The Future of Time: Literature and Diminished Expectations,"[12] began with the aphorism, "Time, it seems, has no future." She cautioned against the misuse of history to diminish expectations of the future.[13]
Morrison was honored with the 1996 National Book Foundation's Medal of Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, which is awarded to a writer "who has enriched our literary heritage over a life of service, or a corpus of work."[14]
In 2000, The Bluest Eye was chosen as a selection for Oprah's Book Club.[15]
Although her novels typically concentrate on black women, Morrison does not identify her works as feminist.[16] She has stated that she thinks "it's off-putting to some readers, who may feel that I'm involved in writing some kind of feminist tract. I don't subscribe to patriarchy, and I don't think it should be substituted with matriarchy. I think it's a question of equitable access, and opening doors to all sorts of things."[16] Critics, however, have referred to her body of work as exemplifying characteristics of "postmodern feminism" by "altering Euro-American dichotomies by rewriting a history written by mainstream historians" and by her usage of shifting narration in Beloved and Paradise.[17]
In addition to her novels, Morrison has also co-written books for children with her younger son, Slade Morrison, who worked as a painter and musician. Slade died on December 22, 2010, aged 45.

I think it's a question of equitable access, and opening doors to all sorts of things."[16] Critics, however, have referred to her body of work as exemplifying characteristics of "postmodern feminism" by "altering Euro-American dichotomies by rewriting a history written by mainstream historians" and by her usage of shifting narration in Beloved and Paradise.[17]
In addition to her novels, Morrison has also co-written books for children with her younger son, Slade Morrison, who worked as a painter and musician. Slade died on December 22, 2010, aged 45.

Rick Moranis
Rick was a huge star in the '80s and '90s and starred in "Little Shop of Horrors," "Ghostbusters," and "Spaceballs."

Rick Moranis
Rick hasn't starred in a film since 1997. His wife passed away from breast cancer in 1991, and after of few years of trying to work and raise their children, he said: "So I took a little bit of a break. And the little bit of a break turned into a longer break, and then I found that I really didn't miss it." He has done some voice-over work and released a few comedy albums since his departure from live-action films.

Jamie Lee Curtis
She publicly announced her intention to quit acting but starred in "Beverly Hills Chihuahua" and "You Again." We can only imagine it was for the money. She has since devoted her time to writing children's books, and she filed a patent for a special kind of diaper that could carry baby wipes without soaking through.

Joaquin has been acting since he was 8, starring alongside his older brother. In his adult career, he was recognized for his work in "Gladiator" and "Walk the Line."

Joaquin Phoenix
Joaquin stunned everyone when he declared he was leaving acting in order to pursue a hip-hop career, which prompted the world to think that he might have lost his mind. His extremely bizarre interview with David Letterman seemed to confirm that theory. It was all revealed to be part of a massive hoax, which is detailed in the mockumentary "I'm Still Here."

Mara quit acting because she felt it limited her creativity. She works for a non-profit organization called Publicolor, which examines how color affects behavior and mood, especially within education. She has stated that she's interested in writing young adult books as well.

Puberty was a curse for Erik, as he did not transition from adorable child star very well. Adulthood has been the bane of many a child star; it seems like the only kids who make it never have that awkward teenage phase. Erik has gone back to college at USC.

Sean became famous for his turn as James Bond, and he went on to be a successful movie star after his bit in the franchise was over, starring in the third "Indiana Jones" and a few Hitchcock films.

After "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" failed at the box office, Sean decided to quit acting; it was just that big of a disappointment. He also turned down the role of Gandalf in "The Lord of Rings" series, a gig that would have kept him working for ten more years, as it turns out. He apparently didn't fully comprehend the script.

The film "Two Faced Woman" ruined her career. Seriously. Most actresses take on silly movies for the money at some point their careers, but they always move on to better projects. But after this movie failed, she completely withdrew from Hollywood and the public in general. She never married and never had children and lived alone until her death in 1990.

Professional female boxer Keisher "Fire" McLeod-Wells is a princess among men who has an uncompromising burning desire and passion for life. She finds herself at the top of a sport that is most beautiful when executed with precision, determination, persistence and a killer instinct. She has all of these attributes, but also the heart and reach to connect with her target with angelic brutality.
After turning away for now from a modeling and acting career with significant momentum and turning pro, she is already a four-time Golden Gloves champion who is feared by every female slugger in the sport. She dances in the ring with a grace and quickness that earns her the respect and envy of her opponents. Can you name another "triple threat" female celebrity whose talents include kicking ass? Exactly.
We were lucky enough to corner Fire while training at Brooklyn's famous Gleason's Gym and were immediately warmed by her charm and awed by her skill. We were bumped once by the New York Times but beat CNN to the punch in featuring her explosive career that includes the recent filming of Todas Contra Mexico (All Against Mexico), a Mexican reality show Fire has just returned from filming.
Best of luck to you, Fire. It is with great pleasure that we will watch your pro boxing career continue to burn brightly.

‘Developers are new kingmakers’ | #RHSummit
by Amber Johnson | Jul 10, 2015
NGINX, Inc. started more than 10 years ago as open-source project. The company’s misson was “trying to solve the simple problem of putting 10k web connections on 2002 hardware,” Sarah Novotny, technical evangelist for NGINX, informed theCUBE‘s Stu Miniman during an interview at Red Hat Summit 2015.
In the last 10 years, NGINX “has grown to encompass static asset delivery, reverse proxy, load balancing, cashing, SSL termination, basically all that edge-of-network application acceleration that exists that a developer wants control of that used to live in the network,” Novotny explained.
Novotny discussed changes she has observed during her career. The industry veteran stated, “2010 is when I really saw a flip from [open source] being suspect in the enterprise to it being a default.” She also added that they’re trying to embrace the big player within open-source communities. “It’s the developers who are the kingmakers,” she said. “Having something available as a download to play with it and have it proved out in meritocracy is the way that you get software adopted these days.”
A shift from ‘servers as pets’
With Docker, Novotny has seen a shift from “servers as pets” to more like “cattle,” meaning that the industry is displaying a “logical evolution from ‘I know everything about this as a systems administrator’ to … infrastructure as code, to … this Docker file builds it, and if it doesn’t work I kill it.”
Novotny stated she has recently seen that “the ability to respond to their user experience” creates “a new alignment of interests,” namely stability and features sets, as opposed to 10 years ago. At that time, Novotny saw operations concerned with stability and developers working on giving new features.
“Those [interests] are in opposition,” Novotny said, and that system placed “developers and operations in contention. As we’ve seen businesses evolve and learn and know that what differentiates them is the feature set in their software, is the ability to change the user experience, to respond to their user experience” leads to a better product and customer experience.

One of the fragments from "When Harry Met Sally" shot at Katz's. This scene, one of the funniest ones in American comedy for last 30 years, certainly gave Katz's a new lease for life - the present ownership has just started, and lasted for 20 years next year, making it altogether a proverbial Jewish 120 years
Once I have moved my production into HD and interviewed several people of note (I don't like the word "celebrity"), I haven't figured out a way to post some HD teasers here, but feel free to check a sample at mynyco(dot)blip(dot)tv

Larry Koopa has been stated to be the youngest of the Koopalings. He seems to have an interest in sports as seen in many games; oddly, he hasn't appeared in any sports game. Additionally, he doesn't possess a lot of stamina despite his liking of sports. Though he does play tennis with a fireball in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, he has also shown to be bad-tempered or bratty in New Super Mario Bros Wii. His main color representation is sky blue. Larry was known as Cheatsy Koopa in the cartoons, since if he can't win, he will try to cheat by any means to win.
Morton Koopa Jr. is the second youngest of the Koopalings despite his very large size. He seems to possess a cantankerous personality. He is also the only Koopaling to have a different skin tone rather than the yellow tone the others have, this could be because he normally rules a hot and dry area (Desert Land in Super Mario Bros. 3 and Donut Plains in Super Mario World). The Jr. following his name has sparked some controversy; this is due to the specific connection not being confirmed. The actual reason for the "Jr" is because he was named after Morton Downey Jr. His main color representation is black. Morton was known as Big Mouth Koopa Jr. in the cartoons.
Wendy O. Koopa is the third youngest of Koopalings, as well as the only female. She is considered a spoiled brat with a quick temper, often going into a rage over little things. Instead of the spiked bands the other Koopalings have on their wrists and neck, she has a necklace and very large bracelets. Regardless of her feminine traits, as a female villain she is stated to be a tomboy. Even though she is female, she is one of the two Koopalings with no hair (the other being Roy). Wendy was known as Kootie Pie Koopa in the cartoons.
Iggy Koopa is the middle child of the Koopalings. He is depicted as a demented, mechanical genius. His two outstanding characteristics are his glasses and his height; he is shown to be the tallest and thinnest of the Koopalings. The cartoons have also stated that he is the twin brother of Lemmy Koopa (Hip Koopa), but this is not followed in the game canon. His main color representation is yellow-green. Iggy was known as Hop Koopa in the cartoons.
Roy Koopa is the third oldest of the Koopalings. Roy is sometimes depicted as a typical bully who likes beating up others (mostly Iggy and maybe Lemmy) for his own amusement. However, he seems quite fond of the color pink; he has a pink head, pink sunglasses, and a purple shell. This is most likely a reference to the joke, "Real men wear pink." His main color representation is purple. In Japanese materals, Roy is shown to speak in a calm and collected manner, so he may have more of a laidback personality. Roy was known as Bully Koopa in the cartoons.
Lemmy Koopa is the smallest of the Koopalings, despite being the second oldest; he retains a childlike innocence about him. Because of his traits, Lemmy is exceedingly immature; he prefers clowning around rather than conquering. Already being clownish from his love of balancing on his rubber ball, it is stated he would rather join the circus than try to destroy Mario. His main color representation is yellow. Lemmy was known as Hip Koopa in the cartoons.
Ludwig von Koopa has been said to be the oldest Koopaling and was Bowser's second-in-command until Bowser Jr. came along. He possesses a magnificent intelligence, most likely superior to that of his siblings and his father. He is presumptuous, arrogant, and the cruelest of his siblings, but is still very much into culture; he likes listening to classical music and he is a composer himself, as he apparently composes "Koopa Symphonies" (which are said to be terrible). His main color representation is deep blue. Ludwig was known as Kooky von Koopa in the cartoons.
wn.com/Super Mario Bros. The Koopalings
Larry Koopa has been stated to be the youngest of the Koopalings. He seems to have an interest in sports as seen in many games; oddly, he hasn't appeared in any sports game. Additionally, he doesn't possess a lot of stamina despite his liking of sports. Though he does play tennis with a fireball in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, he has also shown to be bad-tempered or bratty in New Super Mario Bros Wii. His main color representation is sky blue.

Mary Debra Winger (born May 16, 1955) is an American actress. She gained critical acclaim for her performance in Urban Cowboy in 1980. She then gave Academy Award-nominated performances in An Officer and a Gentleman, Terms of Endearment, and Shadowlands.
She has also been nominated for four Golden Globe awards, two BAFTA awards, an Emmy Award, and won the National Society of Film Critics Award for Best Actress for Terms of Endearment
Winger was born as Mary Debra Winger in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, into an Orthodox Jewish family, to Robert Winger, a meat packer, and Ruth (née Felder), an office manager.] She has stated publicly and with amusement that the Internet has a growing "snowball" of claims that she had volunteered in an Israeli Kibbutz, whereas she was merely on a typical Israeli youth program that visited the kibbutz. After returning to the United States, she was involved in a car accident and suffered a cerebral hemorrhage; as a result, she was left partially paralyzed and blind for ten months, having initially been told that she would never see again. With time on her hands to think about her life, she decided that, if she recovered, she would move to California and become an actress. She later recovered.

His first novel, Grimus (1975), a part-science fiction tale, was generally ignored by the public and literary critics.

His first novel, Grimus (1975), a part-science fiction tale, was generally ignored by the public and literary critics. His next novel, Midnight's Children (1981), catapulted him to literary notability. This work won the 1981 Booker Prize and, in 1993 and 2008, was awarded the Best of the Bookers as the best novel to have received the prize during its first 25 and 40 years.[16] Midnight's Children follows the life of a child, born at the stroke of midnight as India gained its independence, who is endowed with special powers and a connection to other children born at the dawn of a new and tumultuous age in the history of the Indian sub-continent and the birth of the modern nation of India. The character of Saleem Sinai has been compared to Rushdie.[17] However, the author has refuted the idea of having written any of his characters as autobiographical, stating, "People assume that because certain things in the character are drawn from your own experience, it just becomes you. In that sense, I've never felt that I've written an autobiographical character."[18]
After Midnight's Children, Rushdie wrote Shame (1983), in which he depicts the political turmoil in Pakistan, basing his characters on Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq. Shame won France's Prix du Meilleur Livre Étranger (Best Foreign Book) and was a close runner-up for the Booker Prize. Both these works of postcolonial literature are characterised by a style of magic realism and the immigrant outlook that Rushdie is very conscious of as a member of the Indian diaspora.
Rushdie wrote a non-fiction book about Nicaragua in 1987 called The Jaguar Smile. This book has a political focus and is based on his first-hand experiences and research at the scene of Sandinista political experiments.
His most controversial work, The Satanic Verses, was published in 1988 (see section below).
In addition to books, Rushdie has published many short stories, including those collected in East, West (1994). The Moor's Last Sigh, a family epic ranging over some 100 years of India's history was published in 1995. The Ground Beneath Her Feet (1999) presents an alternative history of modern rock music. The song of the same name by U2 is one of many song lyrics included in the book; hence Rushdie is credited as the lyricist. He also wrote Haroun and the Sea of Stories in 1990.
Rushdie has had a string of commercially successful and critically acclaimed novels. His 2005 novel Shalimar the Clown received, in India, the prestigious Hutch Crossword Book Award, and was, in Britain, a finalist for the Whitbread Book Awards. It was shortlisted for the 2007 International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award.[19]
In his 2002 non-fiction collection Step Across This Line, he professes his admiration for the Italian writer Italo Calvino and the American writer Thomas Pynchon, among others. His early influences included Jorge Luis Borges, Mikhail Bulgakov, Lewis Carroll, Günter Grass, and James Joyce. Rushdie was a personal friend of Angela Carter's and praised her highly in the foreword for her collection Burning your Boats.
His novel Luka and the Fire of Life was published in November 2010. Earlier that year, he announced that he was writing his memoirs,[20] entitled Joseph Anton: A Memoir, which was published in September 2012.
In 2012, Salman Rushdie became one of the first major authors to embrace Booktrack (a company that synchronises ebooks with customised soundtracks), when he published his short story "In the South" on the platform.

The character of Saleem Sinai has been compared to Rushdie.[17] However, the author has refuted the idea of having written any of his characters as autobiographical, stating, "People assume that because certain things in the character are drawn from your own experience, it just becomes you. In that sense, I've never felt that I've written an autobiographical character."[18]
After Midnight's Children, Rushdie wrote Shame (1983), in which he depicts the political turmoil in Pakistan, basing his characters on Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq. Shame won France's Prix du Meilleur Livre Étranger (Best Foreign Book) and was a close runner-up for the Booker Prize. Both these works of postcolonial literature are characterised by a style of magic realism and the immigrant outlook that Rushdie is very conscious of as a member of the Indian diaspora.
Rushdie wrote a non-fiction book about Nicaragua in 1987 called The Jaguar Smile. This book has a political focus and is based on his first-hand experiences and research at the scene of Sandinista political experiments.
His most controversial work, The Satanic Verses, was published in 1988 (see section below).
In addition to books, Rushdie has published many short stories, including those collected in East, West (1994). The Moor's Last Sigh, a family epic ranging over some 100 years of India's history was published in 1995. The Ground Beneath Her Feet (1999) presents an alternative history of modern rock music. The song of the same name by U2 is one of many song lyrics included in the book; hence Rushdie is credited as the lyricist. He also wrote Haroun and the Sea of Stories in 1990.
Rushdie has had a string of commercially successful and critically acclaimed novels. His 2005 novel Shalimar the Clown received, in India, the prestigious Hutch Crossword Book Award, and was, in Britain, a finalist for the Whitbread Book Awards. It was shortlisted for the 2007 International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award.[19]
In his 2002 non-fiction collection Step Across This Line, he professes his admiration for the Italian writer Italo Calvino and the American writer Thomas Pynchon, among others. His early influences included Jorge Luis Borges, Mikhail Bulgakov, Lewis Carroll, Günter Grass, and James Joyce. Rushdie was a personal friend of Angela Carter's and praised her highly in the foreword for her collection Burning your Boats.
His novel Luka and the Fire of Life was published in November 2010. Earlier that year, he announced that he was writing his memoirs,[20] entitled Joseph Anton: A Memoir, which was published in September 2012.
In 2012, Salman Rushdie became one of the first major authors to embrace Booktrack (a company that synchronises ebooks with customised soundtracks), when he published his short story "In the South" on the platform.

world-famous author Salman Rushdie sits down for an interview. After the 1988 publication of his novel 'The Satanic Verses,' Salman had a very real reason to fear for his life: a fatwa was issued, ordering Muslims to kill the author. In his new memoir, 'Joseph Anton,' Salman tells the story of his years in hiding. The title? It's the pseudonym he used on the run (for Joseph Conrad and Anton Chekhov).

Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie (/sælˈmɑːn ˈrʊʃdi/;[3] Kashmiri: अहमद सलमान रुशदी (Devanagari), احمد سلمان رشدی (Nastaʿlīq); born 19 June 1947) is a British Indian nov...
Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie (/sælˈmɑːn ˈrʊʃdi/;[3] Kashmiri: अहमद सलमान रुशदी (Devanagari), احمد سلمان رشدی (Nastaʿlīq); born 19 June 1947) is a British Indian novelist and essayist. His second novel, Midnight's Children (1981), won the Booker Prize in 1981. Much of his fiction is set on the Indian subcontinent. He is said to combine magical realism with historical fiction; his work is concerned with the many connections, disruptions, and migrations between Eastern and Western civilizations.
His fourth novel, The Satanic Verses (1988), was the centre of a major controversy, provoking protests from Muslims in several countries. Death threats were made against him, including a fatwā calling for his assassination issued by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, on 14 February 1989, and as a result he was put under police protection by the British government.
Rushdie was appointed Commandeur de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of France in January 1999.[5] In June 2007, Queen Elizabeth II knighted him for his services to literature. In 2008, The Times ranked him thirteenth on its list of the fifty greatest British writers since 1945.
Since 2000, Rushdie has lived in the United States, where he has worked at Emory University and was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters. In 2012, he published Joseph Anton: A Memoir, an account of his life in the wake of the controversy over The Satanic Verses.
The son of Anis Ahmed Rushdie, a University of Cambridge-educated lawyer turned businessman, and Negin Bhatt, a teacher, Rushdie was born in Bombay, then British India, into a Muslim family of Kashmiri descent. Rushdie has three sisters. He wrote in his 2012 memoir that his father adopted the name Rushdie in honour of Averroes (Ibn Rushd). He was educated at Cathedral and John Connon School in Mumbai, Rugby School in Warwickshire, and King's College, University of Cambridge, where he read history.[4]
Rushdie's first career was as a copywriter, working for the advertising agency Ogilvy & Mather, where he came up with "irresistibubble" for Aero and "Naughty but Nice" for cream cakes, and for the agency Ayer Barker, for whom he wrote the memorable line "That'll do nicely" for American Express.[11] It was while he was at Ogilvy that he wrote Midnight's Children, before becoming a full-time writer.[12][13][14] John Hegarty of Bartle Bogle Hegarty has criticised Rushdie for not referring to his copywriting past frequently enough, although conceding: "He did write crap ads ... admittedly."[15]
Rushdie's first novel, Grimus (1975), a part-science fiction tale, was generally ignored by the public and literary critics. His next novel, Midnight's Children (1981), catapulted him to literary notability. This work won the 1981 Booker Prize and, in 1993 and 2008, was awarded the Best of the Bookers as the best novel to have received the prize during its first 25 and 40 years.[16] Midnight's Children follows the life of a child, born at the stroke of midnight as India gained its independence, who is endowed with special powers and a connection to other children born at the dawn of a new and tumultuous age in the history of the Indian sub-continent and the birth of the modern nation of India.

Salman Rushdie is a global exemplar of artist as citizen. Beloved for his brilliant fiction, Rushdie has helped define the literary canon with his classics "Midnight’s Children" and "Shame." Author most recently of "Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights," he embodies the power and reverberations of the written word – personally and politically – more clearly than any living writer. In response to Rushdie’s novel "The Satanic Verses," the Ayatollah Khomeini issued a fatwa on the writer’s life. Living under threat of death for years, Rushdie has emerged as an outspoken advocate for the freedom of expression. In honoring him with its literary award, presented previously to icons from Arthur Miller and August Wilson to Joyce Carol Oates and Patti Smith, the Chicago Tribune recognizes not only great literary achievement but also the transformative power of the written word. Rushdie will be joined in conversation by Bruce Dold, editor of the Chicago Tribune editorial page.

BJP slams oppositon for privilege motion against Smriti Irani in parliament
BJP today defended HRD Minister Smriti Irani who is under attack over her statement on Rohith issue, saying the Opposition has "no ground" to move a privilege motion against her as it is based on mere "insinuation". BJP spokesperson M J Akbar lashed out at the Congress, accusing it of "doing politics" over a tragedy and "using lies to mislead" public on the issue to divert attention from the flak it is facing after Rahul Gandhi joined the JNU protesters. "You will bring a privilege notice on insinuation in what she has stated. If one would have to bring a privilege motion on insinuation, then not even a single Congress leader would have dared to stay in Parliament," he told reporters. BJP said Irani's statement on the issue in Parliament was based on official account that the police g... -

Sunday on the Front Stoop; Who Is Hillary Clinton?
Who is Hillary Clinton? What do we think we know about her? Is ambition her main driver or is she working for all of us, as she has often stated? It is impossible to see into the heart and motives of another person, making this kind of pursuit a very imperfect 'science' when we try it with people we know and love. Trying to understand a career politician is even less accurate. So what do we do? Well, we are going to do some research and have some conversation about Hillary Clinton on our program... but we make no promises. We hope that this conversation may be useful. -

Jews & Israel should not trust Obama's Iran deal
Jews & Israel should not trust Obama's Iran deal President Barrack Obama says that Israel and American Jews should trust the deal that is being negotiated with Iran. President Obama's rationale is that if there is no deal with Iran, then the USA would go to war with Iran and that would result in Iranian rockets raining down on Israel. No matter how you look at it, this is very poor logic. Are we to trust President Obama and his negotiations with Iran? President Obama has stated that he was raised as a Muslim, but to look even deeper, Obama's top adviser is a definite Iranian sympathizer. Obama's top adviser, Valerie Jarret, was born and raised in Iran and she has also stated she would like to see Sharia Law implemented in the USA. On another interesting note, that daughter of John K... -
Christopher Hitchens on Abortion, Egypt, Israel, JFK Jr., Barbra Streisand (1995)
Hitchens stated that "[an] unborn child seems to me to be a real concept. It's not a growth or an appendix, You can't say the rights question doesn't come up. I don't think a woman should be forced to choose, or even can be." Although holding a personal anti-abortion position, Hitchens opposed the overturning of Roe v. Wade, stating, "that will make abortion more like a contraceptive procedure than a surgical one. That's the Hitchens plank, and I think it's a defensible one." Hitchens believed that a fetus should be regarded as an "unborn child", supporting the development of medical abortion techniques, and fundamentally believing in access to contraceptives and reproductive rights in order to prevent surgical abortion altogether. He strongly criticized the encouragement of sexual abstine... -

BJP today defended HRD Minister Smriti Irani who is under attack over her statement on Rohith issue, saying the Opposition has "no ground" to move a privilege motion against her as it is based on mere "insinuation".
BJP spokesperson M J Akbar lashed out at the Congress, accusing it of "doing politics" over a tragedy and "using lies to mislead" public on the issue to divert attention from the flak it is facing after Rahul Gandhi joined the JNU protesters.
"You will bring a privilege notice on insinuation in what she has stated. If one would have to bring a privilege motion on insinuation, then not even a single Congress leader would have dared to stay in Parliament," he told reporters.
BJP said Irani's statement on the issue in Parliament was based on official account that the police gave at that time.
"It pains me even more that instead of grief bringing all of us together, some political parties, especially Congress, have become so cynical that they want to play politics even on tragedy.
"They are doing politics and are openly using lies of the most shocking kind in order to expand or they hope they will expand or regain their disappearing support base. There is so much in this country to do politics about. Must we also do politics about such tragedies," Akbar said.
He said it was hoped that political class and parties will work together to find a solution on the issue instead of doing politics.
On the privilege issue, Akbar said, "Congress' false charge-sheet manipulates the language in an attempt to hoodwink you. They say that the HRD Minister had insinuated that Rohith Vemula was not a dalit...."
Leaders of various parties, including Congress and Janata Dal (United) MP KC Tyagi, nominated MP KTS Tulsi and CPI (M) lawmaker Mohammad Salim intend to bring a privilege motion against Irani in both the Houses over her statement on Rohith Vemula suicide case.
Akbar said by "making use of lies, all this is being done to mislead the people and Parliament's time is being wasted.
This has become a habit of the Congress".
He also said that Congress was now trying to run away from the issue that has cropped up and its leaders Rahul Gandhi and P Chidambaram were trying to divert attention from their statements "made in favour" of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru after seeing the public reaction.
"They have been very sharp against Rahul Gandhi going into a particular campus in order to support those who called Afzal Guru's trial by due procedure, conviction by due procedure by exhausting all the available options and remedies that are in the judicial system up to the Supreme Court in the judicial system... Rahul Gandhi went to support those who called it a judicial killing," he said. .
Akbar said Irani's statement in Parliament was based on the official account and that was of the police.
"In the statement given by her, she has said that the suicide note does not blame anyone. 'This was not my submission, this is what the police said', she said. If the police has stated this, she can say only that. If later other things have come out, those will also be included," Akbar said.
He said Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad has also said that the Minister has given a statement on the basis of official account.
Quoting the Minister, Akbar said the HRD Minister has said "I am being condemned only because my department has written a letter. I am just doing my duty."
He said if something comes up before the Ministry, it has to act and asked Congress leaders what they would have done if such a complaint would have come to them.
He also said the letter was written by a Joint Secretary in the HRD Ministry, who is neither a BJP member nor any political leader.
Akbar attacked Rahul Gandhi saying, "There is a saying in English that you shoot and scoot. You make an irresponsible statement and then disappear. A leader is so irresponsible that he makes a statement and then disappears. Rahul Gandhi can hide from Parliament but not from the public."
Akbar said the Congress refuses to accept that the Proctorial Board and the Executive Council that took the name of the student (Rohith), were nominess of UPA and Congress government.
"The recommendation of the Proctorial Board, the decision of the Executive Council, for whatever action was required, all decisions were by those who were appointed by the Congress," he said.
Akbar also expressed grief over Rohith's demise and termed his suicide as "sadness beyond words".

The Best Hulda Clark (& Bob Beck) Zapper made.
Kroeger Herb, Wormwood combination contains: Black Walnut Hulls, Wormwood, Cloves, Quassia (Bitterwood). The top 3 herbs that Hulda Clark recommends are Black Walnut Hulls, Wormwood & Cloves. Actually this not new science and these herbs have been known to be beneficial and anti-microbial throughout the ages and in many cultures. Some of Hulda Clark's detractors dismiss her advice, but in doing so they also dismiss the wisdom and medical knowledge of many cultures throughout the ages. Hulda Clark has stated that she has found that larger parasites can also be carriers of viruses. So that by elimination the these parasites and their larvae, it should be that the chance of spreading viruses throughout the body would be lessened. The theory does make sense and Dr. Hulda Clark Phd (micro-biologist) has stated many times that her tests have shown that larger parasites can be carriers of viruses. So it does make sense to destroy the parasites. The Clark zapper is also beneficial. I should state that the Clark zapper is usually at 30,300 hertz, which is frequency that will not be felt by the body. Some Hulda Clark zappers use 30,300 hertz, 15,000 hertz and 2500 hertz, all at 100% positive offset and square wave, 50% duty cycle. I personally think the Bob Beck zapper is a better design. Bob Beck has stated not to take herbs while doing zapping, but from my own personal experience I have always taken herbs and used the Beck zapper.
According to Hulda Clark:
"Parasites can be killed with a very small voltage. But only IF the voltage is 100% Positive Offset, and only IF the voltage is varied up and down repeatedly".
"If the varying voltage become NEGATIVE, even momentarily, it supports and maintains their lives!" ,,,, "If the voltage is applied in pulses, to produce a "Square wave, it will affect many parasites at once so that the rate raising and lowering it, called frequency, is not critical. Even though these tiny animals undoubtedly have a "mortal frequency", this rate does not need to be known or used when a square wave of electricity, totally positive, is used." ,,,, "A positive electrical force that pulses up and down not only appears to kill tiny invaders, it also seems to energize white blood cells to go on an all-out attack on your enemies: your parasites, your toxins everything in spite of their four blockers. In spite of benzene PCBs, metals and asbestos! For a time your white blood cells turn into Super-WBCs. That is why I recommend eight hours of zapping daily until you are well."

Some of Hulda Clark's detractors dismiss her advice, but in doing so they also dismiss the wisdom and medical knowledge of many cultures throughout the ages. Hulda Clark has stated that she has found that larger parasites can also be carriers of viruses. So that by elimination the these parasites and their larvae, it should be that the chance of spreading viruses throughout the body would be lessened. The theory does make sense and Dr. Hulda Clark Phd (micro-biologist) has stated many times that her tests have shown that larger parasites can be carriers of viruses. So it does make sense to destroy the parasites. The Clark zapper is also beneficial. I should state that the Clark zapper is usually at 30,300 hertz, which is frequency that will not be felt by the body. Some Hulda Clark zappers use 30,300 hertz, 15,000 hertz and 2500 hertz, all at 100% positive offset and square wave, 50% duty cycle. I personally think the Bob Beck zapper is a better design. Bob Beck has stated not to take herbs while doing zapping, but from my own personal experience I have always taken herbs and used the Beck zapper.
According to Hulda Clark:
"Parasites can be killed with a very small voltage. But only IF the voltage is 100% Positive Offset, and only IF the voltage is varied up and down repeatedly".
"If the varying voltage become NEGATIVE, even momentarily, it supports and maintains their lives!" ,,,, "If the voltage is applied in pulses, to produce a "Square wave, it will affect many parasites at once so that the rate raising and lowering it, called frequency, is not critical. Even though these tiny animals undoubtedly have a "mortal frequency", this rate does not need to be known or used when a square wave of electricity, totally positive, is used." ,,,, "A positive electrical force that pulses up and down not only appears to kill tiny invaders, it also seems to energize white blood cells to go on an all-out attack on your enemies: your parasites, your toxins everything in spite of their four blockers. In spite of benzene PCBs, metals and asbestos! For a time your white blood cells turn into Super-WBCs. That is why I recommend eight hours of zapping daily until you are well."

Born 1941 in New York City, Trepp spent her
formative summers in Provincetown where she
attended Seong Moy’s art classes and began the
practice of her drawing methodology. A graduate
of Bard College, Trepp was one of the initial
residents of Westbeth, the first federally sponsored
housing for artists. In 1970 she moved to
Switzerland. From 1975-84 several months each
year were spent in Campiglia Ma, Tuscany. Since
1990 Trepp has returned to Provincetown and
works in her summer studio there. She says,
“Additional impulses for my artwork come from
travels in the tribal areas of India, recurrent visits to
various parts of Japan, and forays to Burma, Syria,
and Morocco, as well as the closer European cities.
The resulting personal understanding of trans-
nationalism, and the interest in the commun-ality
as well as the diversity of nations and cultures are
an important part of my life and, hence, my work.”
Throughout, the clear leit-motiv in Trepp’s work is
the concern with the emotional division of space
and, as she has stated, “absolute motion, active
stillness.”

Sandra Day O'Connor (born March 26, 1930) is a retired associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, serving from her appointment in 1981 by Ronald Reagan until her retirement in 2006. She was the first woman to be appointed to the Court.
Prior to O'Connor's appointment to the Court, she was an elected official and judge in Arizona serving as the first female Majority Leader in the United States as the Republican leader in the Arizona Senate. On July 1, 2005, she announced her intention to retire effective upon the confirmation of a successor. Samuel Alito was nominated to take her seat in October 2005, and joined the Court on January 31, 2006.
Considered a federalist and a moderate conservative, O'Connor tended to approach each case narrowly without arguing for sweeping precedents. She most frequently sided with the court's conservative bloc, although in the latter years of her tenure, she was regarded as having the swing opinion in many cases. Her unanimous confirmation by the Senate in 1981 was supported by most conservatives, led by Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater, and liberals, including Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy and women's rights groups like the National Organization for Women.
O'Connor was Chancellor of The College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, and served on the board of trustees of the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Several publications have named O'Connor among the most powerful women in the world.[4][5] On August 12, 2009, she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor of the United States, by President Barack Obama.
She was born in El Paso, Texas, to Harry Alfred Day, a rancher, and Ada Mae (Wilkey).[6] She grew up on a cattle ranch near Duncan, Arizona. She later wrote a book with her brother, H. Alan Day, Lazy B : Growing up on a Cattle Ranch in the American West (2002), about her childhood experiences on the ranch. For most of her early schooling, O'Connor lived in El Paso with her maternal grandmother, and attended public schools and the Radford School for Girls, a private school. She graduated sixth in her class at Austin High School in El Paso in 1946.[7] She attended Stanford University, where she received her B.A. in economics in 1950. She continued at the Stanford Law School for her LL.B.. There, she served on the Stanford Law Review with its presiding editor in chief, future Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist, who was the class valedictorian,[8] and whom she briefly dated during law school.[9] She has stated that she graduated third in her law school class,[10] although Stanford's official position is that the law school did not rank students in 1952.[11]
On December 20, 1952, six months after graduating from law school, she married John Jay O'Connor III. They had three sons: Scott, Brian, and Jay. Her husband suffered from Alzheimer's disease for nearly twenty years until his death in 2009,[12] and she has become involved in raising awareness of the disease.
After graduation from law school, at least 40 law firms refused to interview her for a position as an attorney because she was a woman.[13] She eventually found employment as a deputy county attorney in San Mateo, California, after she offered to work for no salary and without an office, sharing space with a secretary.[13]
O'Connor served as Assistant Attorney General of Arizona 1965–69 until she was appointed to fill a vacancy in the Arizona State Senate. She was re-elected to the State Senate in 1973 and became the first woman to serve as its Majority Leader. In 1975 she was elected to the Maricopa County Superior Court and in 1979 was elevated to the Arizona State Court of Appeals. She served on the Court of Appeals until 1981 when she was appointed to the Supreme Court.

Hawkins Award, 2004 Peter Shaw Memorial Award given by National Association of Scholars, and the 2007 Fordham Foundation Prize and 2997 Bradley Foundation prizes for Outstanding Intellectual Achievement .
Thernstrom is a neoconservative thinker. He was raised in a strong liberal tradition, as was his wife, Abigail. They argue that the left, not they, changed. They reject the policies of race preferences and argue that such policies mainly lead to higher dropout rates among African Americans in colleges.
Thernstrom married Abigail in 1958. They have two children, one of whom is Melanie Thernstrom.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephan_Thernstrom
Abigail Thernstrom,[1] a conservative political scientist, is a former Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute in New York, a member of the Massachusetts Board of Education, and vice chair of the United States Commission on Civil Rights. She received her Ph.D. from the Department of Government, Harvard University, in 1975. She is a Republican.
Thernstrom and her husband, Harvard historian Stephan Thernstrom, are the co-authors of America in Black and White: One Nation, Indivisible (Simon & Schuster), which the New York Times Book Review, in its annual end-of-the-year issue, named as one of the notable books of 1997.

She has spoken out against redistricting to create more minority dominated districts to support their interests, citing that racial barriers have fallen significantly to the point that it is not necessary and may be detrimental. Although she is considered by some to be opposed to affirmative action, she has stated that with the election of Obama to presidency, that it does signify the disappearance of racial barriers.[3]
Her daughter is author Melanie Thernstrom.

Jolie stated that she first became personally aware of worldwide humanitarian crises while filming Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) in Cambodia. She contacted the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) for information on international trouble spots.[66] To learn more about the conditions in these areas, Jolie began visiting refugee camps around the world. In February 2001, she went on her first field visit, an 18-day mission to Sierra Leone and Tanzania; she later expressed her shock at what she had witnessed. In the following months, she returned to Cambodia for two weeks and met with Afghan refugees in Pakistan. She covered all costs related to her missions and shared the same rudimentary working and living conditions as UNHCR field staff on all of her visits.[66] Jolie was named a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador at UNHCR headquarters in Geneva on August 27, 2001.[70]
Since then, Jolie has been on field missions around the world and met with refugees and internally displaced persons in more than 30 countries.[71] Asked what she hoped to accomplish, she stated, "Awareness of the plight of these people. I think they should be commended for what they have survived, not looked down upon."[68] Jolie aims to visit what she terms "forgotten emergencies," crises that media attention has shifted away from.[72] She is noted for not shying away from traveling to areas that are at war:[73] She visited the Darfur region of Sudan during the Darfur conflict in 2004;[74] Pakistan with Brad Pitt to see the impact of the 2005 Kashmir earthquake in 2005;[75] Chad during its civil war in 2007;[76] Iraq during the Second Gulf War in 2007 and 2009;[77][78] Afghanistan during the ongoing war in 2008 and 2011;[79] and Libya during the Libyan revolution in 2011.[80]
After more than a decade of service as Goodwill Ambassador, Jolie was promoted to the rank of Special Envoy of High Commissioner António Guterres on April 17, 2012. As Special Envoy, she represents the UNHCR and High Commissioner António Guterres at the diplomatic level and works to facilitate long-term solutions for people displaced by large-scale crises, such as Afghanistan and Somalia. "This is an exceptional position reflecting an exceptional role she has played for us," said a UNHCR spokesman.[81]
In addition to her work with the UNHCR, Jolie uses her public profile to promote humanitarian causes through the mass media. Her early field visits were chronicled in her book Notes from My Travels, which was published in conjunction with the release of her film Beyond Borders (2003). She filmed a 2005 MTV special, The Diary of Angelina Jolie & Dr. Jeffrey Sachs in Africa, portraying her and noted economist Dr. Jeffrey Sachs on a trip to a remote group of villages in Western Kenya. Jolie has also regularly released public service announcements promoting World Refugee Day and other causes.
Over time, Jolie became more involved in promoting humanitarian causes on a political level. She has regularly attended World Refugee Day in Washington, D.C., and she was an invited speaker at the World Economic Forum in Davos in 2005 and 2006. She also began lobbying humanitarian interests in the U.S. capital, where she met with members of Congress at least 20 times between 2003 and 2006, during which she pushed for several bills to aid refugees and vulnerable children in the Third World and the United States.[70] She explained in 2006, "As much as I would love to never have to visit Washington, that's the way to move the ball."[70] In 2007, she became a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.[82]
Jolie has established several charitable organizations. In 2003, she founded the Maddox Jolie-Pitt Foundation—named the Maddox Jolie Project until 2007—which is dedicated to community development and environmental conservation in Cambodia's northwestern province Battambang.[83] In 2006, she partnered with the Global Health Committee to establish the Maddox Chivan Children's Center, a daycare facility for children afflicted and affected by HIV in the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh.[84] That same year, she and her partner Brad Pitt founded the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, to aid humanitarian causes worldwide.[85] In 2007, Jolie and noted economist Dr. Gene Sperling founded the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict, which funds education programs for children affected by man-made or natural disasters.[86] In 2008, she collaborated with the Microsoft Corporation to establish Kids in Need of Defense, a pro bono movement of law firms, corporate law departments, NGOs and volunteers committed to providing legal counsel to unaccompanied immigrant children in the U.S.[87] In 2010, she established the Jolie Legal Fellows Programme, which recruits lawyers to support governmental child protection efforts in Haiti.
wn.com/Angelina Jolie Speech On Refugee And Immigrant Children (2005)
Jolie stated that she first became personally aware of worldwide humanitarian crises while filming Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) in Cambodia. She contacted the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) for information on international trouble spots.[66] To learn more about the conditions in these areas, Jolie began visiting refugee camps around the world. In February 2001, she went on her first field visit, an 18-day mission to Sierra Leone and Tanzania; she later expressed her shock at what she had witnessed. In the following months, she returned to Cambodia for two weeks and met with Afghan refugees in Pakistan. She covered all costs related to her missions and shared the same rudimentary working and living conditions as UNHCR field staff on all of her visits.[66] Jolie was named a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador at UNHCR headquarters in Geneva on August 27, 2001.[70]
Since then, Jolie has been on field missions around the world and met with refugees and internally displaced persons in more than 30 countries.[71] Asked what she hoped to accomplish, she stated, "Awareness of the plight of these people. I think they should be commended for what they have survived, not looked down upon."[68] Jolie aims to visit what she terms "forgotten emergencies," crises that media attention has shifted away from.[72] She is noted for not shying away from traveling to areas that are at war:[73] She visited the Darfur region of Sudan during the Darfur conflict in 2004;[74] Pakistan with Brad Pitt to see the impact of the 2005 Kashmir earthquake in 2005;[75] Chad during its civil war in 2007;[76] Iraq during the Second Gulf War in 2007 and 2009;[77][78] Afghanistan during the ongoing war in 2008 and 2011;[79] and Libya during the Libyan revolution in 2011.[80]
After more than a decade of service as Goodwill Ambassador, Jolie was promoted to the rank of Special Envoy of High Commissioner António Guterres on April 17, 2012. As Special Envoy, she represents the UNHCR and High Commissioner António Guterres at the diplomatic level and works to facilitate long-term solutions for people displaced by large-scale crises, such as Afghanistan and Somalia. "This is an exceptional position reflecting an exceptional role she has played for us," said a UNHCR spokesman.[81]
In addition to her work with the UNHCR, Jolie uses her public profile to promote humanitarian causes through the mass media. Her early field visits were chronicled in her book Notes from My Travels, which was published in conjunction with the release of her film Beyond Borders (2003). She filmed a 2005 MTV special, The Diary of Angelina Jolie & Dr. Jeffrey Sachs in Africa, portraying her and noted economist Dr. Jeffrey Sachs on a trip to a remote group of villages in Western Kenya. Jolie has also regularly released public service announcements promoting World Refugee Day and other causes.
Over time, Jolie became more involved in promoting humanitarian causes on a political level. She has regularly attended World Refugee Day in Washington, D.C., and she was an invited speaker at the World Economic Forum in Davos in 2005 and 2006. She also began lobbying humanitarian interests in the U.S. capital, where she met with members of Congress at least 20 times between 2003 and 2006, during which she pushed for several bills to aid refugees and vulnerable children in the Third World and the United States.[70] She explained in 2006, "As much as I would love to never have to visit Washington, that's the way to move the ball."[70] In 2007, she became a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.[82]

Tami Canal started a Facebook social media campaign on February 28, 2013.
She stated: "For too long, Monsanto has been the benefactor of corporate subsidies and political favoritism ... Organic and small farmers suffer losses while Monsanto continues to forge its monopoly over the world's food supply, including exclusive patenting rights over seeds and genetic makeup."
She argued that Monsanto benefited from corporate subsidies and political favoritism and that its patent rights over the genetic makeup of seeds resulted in losses to small and organic farmers.
By May 21, the Facebook page had attracted 85,000 members with approximately 110,000 "likes" and about 40,000 daily visitors.

Protests Against Monsanto in 55 Countries (May 2013)
http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/66141-protests-against-monsanto-in-55-countries/
GLOBAL MARCH AGAINST MONSANTO
Saturday, May 23rd, 2015
EARTH – Saturday, May 23, a broad coalition of individuals and groups will gather in cities and towns all over the world, as part of a global March Against Monsanto. The intention of this march is to raise public awareness and bring increasing political pressure to bear regarding Monsanto’s corporate farming and business practices and to fight for labeling of foods that contain genetically engineered and/or modified materials.
It has been estimated that 38 countries spanning 6 continents and 428 cities will be participating in the Global March Against Monsanto for a peaceful, non-violent, informational protest.
Monsanto’s and other companies (e.g., Dow, Syngenta) genetically engineered food pose scientifically established health risks. These include, but are not limited to: organ damage, sterility and infant mortality, birth defects, immune reactions, allergies and increased cancer risks, http://healthyfoodnaturally.com/2012/02/07/gmo-health-risks/
“Monsanto is bankrupting famers, causing soil infertility, mono-cropping, loss of biodiversity, and bee hive collapse. Furthermore, their practices pose a very real threat to organic farming and loss of native plants. It is causing dependency on a centralized food system. In aggregate, this is a recipe for global famine,” warns long-time activist and member of the Gateway Greens, Daniel Romano.
An “Open Letter from World Scientists to All Governments Concerning Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)” (www.i-sis.org.uk/list.php), signed by 828 scientists from 84 countries, detailed concern regarding GMOs coupled with a call for immediate 5 year suspension of GMO crops in order to conduct “a comprehensive public enquiry of agriculture and food security for all.”
GMOs have been removed and banned by Austria, Bulgaria, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Japan, Luxembourg, Madeira, New Zealand, Peru, South America, Russia, France, and Switzerland.
“Monsanto does not want consumers to know what they are eating and is continuing to aggressively fight labeling of GMOs in food. This effort is now reaching even further than blocking attempts by states like California, Oregon and Hawaii from passing labeling laws. Currently a Monsanto former lobbyist is one of the corporate representatives drafting the newest and largest international trade agreement, the TPP (Trans Pacific Partnership). Non-Labeling of GMO foods is being written into the TPP.” – Barbara Chicherio, Gateway Green Alliance
The legislation pushed by the opposition is known much maligned (and misleading) “Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act,” which has been dubbed by activists as the DARK (Deny Americans the Right to Know) Act.
The DARK Act was actually introduced by a powerful pro-GMO food lobby (learn more about it here).

Toni Morrison (born Chloe Ardelia Wofford; February 18, 1931) is an American novelist, editor, and professor. Her novels are known for their epic themes, vivid dialogue, and richly detailed characters. Among her best known novels are The Bluest Eye, Sula, Song of Solomon and Beloved. She also was commissioned to write the libretto for a new opera, Margaret Garner, first performed in 2005. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1988 for Beloved and the Nobel Prize in 1993. On 29 May 2012, she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Morrison began writing fiction as part of an informal group of poets and writers at Howard who met to discuss their work. She went to one meeting with a short story about a black girl who longed to have blue eyes. She later developed the story as her first novel, The Bluest Eye (1970). She wrote it while raising two children and teaching at Howard.[5]
In 1975 her novel Sula (1973) was nominated for the National Book Award. Her third novel, Song of Solomon (1977), brought her national attention. The book was a main selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club, the first novel by a black writer to be so chosen since Richard Wright's Native Son in 1940. It won the National Book Critics Circle Award.
In 1987 Morrison's novel Beloved became a critical success. When the novel failed to win the National Book Award as well as the National Book Critics Circle Award, 48 black critics and writers[8] protested the omission.[5][9] Shortly afterward, it won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction and the American Book Award. That same year, Morrison took a visiting professorship at Bard College.
Beloved was adapted into the 1998 film of the same name starring Oprah Winfrey and Danny Glover. Morrison later used Margaret Garner's life story again in the libretto for a new opera, Margaret Garner, with music by Richard Danielpour. In May 2006, The New York Times Book Review named Beloved the best American novel published in the previous twenty-five years.
In 1993 Morrison was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. Her citation reads: Toni Morrison, "who in novels characterized by visionary force and poetic import, gives life to an essential aspect of American reality." She is currently the last American to have been awarded the honor. Shortly afterward, a fire destroyed her Rockland County, New York home.[2][10]
In 1996 the National Endowment for the Humanities selected Morrison for the Jefferson Lecture, the U.S. federal government's highest honor for achievement in the humanities.[11] Morrison's lecture, entitled "The Future of Time: Literature and Diminished Expectations,"[12] began with the aphorism, "Time, it seems, has no future." She cautioned against the misuse of history to diminish expectations of the future.[13]
Morrison was honored with the 1996 National Book Foundation's Medal of Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, which is awarded to a writer "who has enriched our literary heritage over a life of service, or a corpus of work."[14]
In 2000, The Bluest Eye was chosen as a selection for Oprah's Book Club.[15]
In 2002, Morrison was invited to serve as the first Mentor in Literature in the inaugural cycle of the Rolex Mentor and Protégé Arts Initiative, an international philanthropic programme that pairs masters in their disciplines with emerging talents for a year of one-to-one creative exchange. Out of a very gifted field of candidates, Morrison chose young Australian novelist Julia Leigh as her protégée.
Although her novels typically concentrate on black women, Morrison does not identify her works as feminist.[16] She has stated that she thinks "it's off-putting to some readers, who may feel that I'm involved in writing some kind of feminist tract. I don't subscribe to patriarchy, and I don't think it should be substituted with matriarchy. I think it's a question of equitable access, and opening doors to all sorts of things."[16] Critics, however, have referred to her body of work as exemplifying characteristics of "postmodern feminism" by "altering Euro-American dichotomies by rewriting a history written by mainstream historians" and by her usage of shifting narration in Beloved and Paradise.[17]
In addition to her novels, Morrison has also co-written books for children with her younger son, Slade Morrison, who worked as a painter and musician. Slade died on December 22, 2010, aged 45.

Elizabeth Ann Warren (née Herring; born June 22, 1949) is an American academic and politician, who is the senior United States Senator from Massachusetts and a member of the Democratic Party. She was previously a Harvard Law School professor specializing in bankruptcy law. A prominent legal scholar, Warren is among the most cited in the field of commercial law. She is an active consumer protection advocate whose scholarship led to the conception and establishment of the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Warren has written a number of academic and popular works, and is a frequent subject of media interviews regarding the American economy and personal finance.
Following the 2008 financial crisis, Warren served as chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel created to oversee the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). She later served as Assistant to the President and Special Advisor to the Secretary of the Treasury for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau under President Barack Obama. During the late 2000s, she was recognized by publications such as the National Law Journal and the Time 100 as an increasingly influential public policy figure.
In September 2011, Warren announced her candidacy for the U.S. Senate, challenging Republican incumbent Scott Brown. She won the general election on November 6, 2012, becoming the first female Senator from Massachusetts. She was assigned to the Senate Special Committee on Aging; the Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee; and the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee.
Warren has been described as a leading figure in the Democratic Party and among American progressives and has frequently been mentioned by political pundits as a potential 2016 presidential candidate. However, Warren has repeatedly stated that she has no intention of running for President in 2016.
Warren started her academic career at Rutgers School of Law–Newark (1977–78). She moved to the University of Houston Law Center (1978–83), where she became Associate Dean for Academic Affairs in 1980, and obtained tenure in 1981. She taught at the University of Texas School of Law as visiting associate professor in 1981, and returned as a full professor two years later (1983–87). In addition, she was a visiting professor at the University of Michigan (1985) and research associate at the Population Research Center of the University of Texas at Austin (1983–87).[31] Early in her career, Warren became a proponent of on-the-ground research based on studying how people actually respond to laws in the real world. Her work analyzing court records and interviewing judges, lawyers, and debtors established her as a rising star in the field of bankruptcy law.[32]
Warren joined the University of Pennsylvania Law School as a full professor in 1987 and obtained an endowed chair in 1990 (becoming William A Schnader Professor of Commercial Law). She taught for a year at Harvard Law School in 1992 as Robert Braucher Visiting Professor of Commercial Law. In 1995, Warren left Pennsylvania to become Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law at Harvard Law School.[31] As of 2011, she was the only tenured law professor at Harvard who was trained at an American public university.[32] At Harvard, Warren became one of the most highly cited law professors in the United States. Although she had published in many fields, her expertise was in bankruptcy. In the field of bankruptcy and commercial law, only Douglas Baird of Chicago, Alan Schwartz of Yale, and Bob Scott of Columbia have citation rates comparable to that of Warren.[33] Warren's scholarship and public advocacy were the impetus behind the establishment of the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Who is Hillary Clinton? What do we think we know about her? Is ambition her main driver or is she working for all of us, as she has often stated? It is impossible to see into the heart and motives of another person, making this kind of pursuit a very imperfect 'science' when we try it with people we know and love. Trying to understand a career politician is even less accurate. So what do we do? Well, we are going to do some research and have some conversation about Hillary Clinton on our program... but we make no promises. We hope that this conversation may be useful.

Daughter of a former state top police official hailing from North-East has alleged that she was racially attacked by two women while shopping in Bengaluru. Rachel Sangliana, daughter of former Bangalore Police Commissioner H T Sangliana, also former Member of Parliament, has alleged that a racial slur was passed against her by a woman and later attacked by her (woman) and another lady when she tried to defend herself. "I, Born & brought up in Bangalore. Racial slurs thrown at me...sure! - I've heard plenty!! Physically attacked by 1 woman & then later by the same woman along with another for defending myself due to racial slur - That's a 1st timer!!" Rachel posted on her Facebook page on December7.
She has also said that three girls from Nagaland, a lady staff and a man accompanied by his teenage daughter came to her rescue, while 50 odd people watched. "A HUGE Thank you to the 3 Naga girls for staying by my side till Nigel came to escort me home, and to the man, father & daughter...for offering to be witnesses. What has Bangalore come to?? I cannot believe what happened to me today!! Stay safe!! You will always have IGNORANT WILD people around you!!" she further stated. She has however not explained what sparked the incident but it reportedly happened when she objected to the two women jumping the queue at a supermarket on Sunday. However, DCP Bangalore South B S Lokesh Kumar said no case has been registered as no one has come forward to file a complaint.

Jews & Israel should not trust Obama's Iran deal
President Barrack Obama says that Israel and American Jews should trust the deal that is being negotiated with Iran. President Obama's rationale is that if there is no deal with Iran, then the USA would go to war with Iran and that would result in Iranian rockets raining down on Israel. No matter how you look at it, this is very poor logic. Are we to trust President Obama and his negotiations with Iran? President Obama has stated that he was raised as a Muslim, but to look even deeper, Obama's top adviser is a definite Iranian sympathizer. Obama's top adviser, Valerie Jarret, was born and raised in Iran and she has also stated she would like to see Sharia Law implemented in the USA.
On another interesting note, that daughter of John Kerry, Secretary of State, has married the son of a top Iranian official. The best man at the wedding was the son of Iran's negotiator of the Iranian nuclear deal with the US. Now add in that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's (girl)friend since 2007 is Huma Abedin who has connections to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Hitchens stated that "[an] unborn child seems to me to be a real concept. It's not a growth or an appendix, You can't say the rights question doesn't come up. I don't think a woman should be forced to choose, or even can be." Although holding a personal anti-abortion position, Hitchens opposed the overturning of Roe v. Wade, stating, "that will make abortion more like a contraceptive procedure than a surgical one. That's the Hitchens plank, and I think it's a defensible one." Hitchens believed that a fetus should be regarded as an "unborn child", supporting the development of medical abortion techniques, and fundamentally believing in access to contraceptives and reproductive rights in order to prevent surgical abortion altogether. He strongly criticized the encouragement of sexual abstinence within the pro-life movement of the Christian Right.

She has won two Academy Awards, eight Grammy Awards, five Emmy Awards including one Daytime Emmy, a Special Tony Award, an American Film Institute award, a Kennedy Center Honors award, a Peabody Award, and is one of the few entertainers who have won an Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award.

After beginning a successful recording career in the 1960s, by the end of the decade, Streisand ventured into film starring in the critically acclaimed Funny Girl (1968) and Hello, Dolly!

Kim Walker-Smith (born in Albany, Oregon) is an American singer, songwriter, worship leader, and recording artist. She currently resides in Redding, CA with her husband Skyler. She produced her first solo album, titled Here Is My Song, which was released in February 2008 through the Jesus Culture record label. Walker-Smith is best known as the worship leader for the Jesus Culture Band and Jesus Culture events, and a worship pastor for Bethel Church in Redding.
Her rendition of the John Mark McMillan song, "How He Loves", has been viewed over 1.2 million times on YouTube. Her own song "Where You Go I Go" has over four million views on YouTube.
Early Life:
Kim Walker was "raised in a small farm town called Klamath Falls, Oregon."[1] Her parents divorced when she was four years old and her family moved frequently, causing her to be shy and withdrawn as a result of always being "the new kid". Walker stated that her family "for generations has been very musical and my mom put me on a stage when I was three. I grew up singing and was very involved in musical theater."
Career and Personal Life:
In her early adulthood, Walker moved to Redding, California to attend a Christian college, but was struggling with her grades and wasn't happy attending university. One night while driving around she cried out to the Lord, and came across a 24-hour prayer house that had been recently set up by Bethel Church. Venturing inside, Walker was captivated and attended their church service the following Sunday. After a year she left university to attend the [School of Supernatural Ministry] (BSSM). She graduated from the BSSM after completing their two-year program, and after two more years was hired by the church as a worship pastor. [1] Walker has stated that the "greatest desire of [her] heart is to see God's kingdom and power manifest for people to be set free, healed, and radically changed as they encounter God in worship."
In 2005, Walker's "powerful voice won her $25,000 cash in an "American Idol" type of competition called "So You Want to Be a Star," which aired on Chico television station KRVU. [She] is considered by many to be a forerunner in a new kind of worship referred to as prophetic worship." [7] Walker has cited Misty Edwards of the International House of Prayer and Suzy Yaraei of Morning Star Ministries, both prominent worship leaders in the evangelical community, as her greatest musical influences.
In 2009, Walker married Skyler Smith, another worship leader who also does graphic design and photography; they now live in San Francisco.[8] She now releases music under the name Kim Walker-Smith instead of her maiden name.[7] In addition to her career of solo albums, she is also a member of the band Jesus Culture, which began as a youth worship band at Bethel, but now hosts multiple worship conferences around the country and produces a live record each year, in addition to frequently leading worship at Bethel. [9] In 2010, Walker-Smith stated that she was "at Bethel once to twice a month right now. We travel about three to four times a month. About 40 percent of that is Jesus Culture."[1] She has also expressed a desire for her music to expand into the secular community, expressing a passion for social justice and "to see the arts and creativity restored and a new standard set"..."I've always looked at music as a vehicle to get me to people".

Kim Walker-Smith (born in Albany, Oregon) is an American singer, songwriter, worship leader, and recording artist. She currently resides in Redding, CA with her husband Skyler. She produced her first solo album, titled Here Is My Song, which was released in February 2008 through the Jesus Culture record label. Walker-Smith is best known as the worship leader for the Jesus Culture Band and Jesus Culture events, and a worship pastor for Bethel Church in Redding.
Her rendition of the John Mark McMillan song, "How He Loves", has been viewed over 1.2 million times on YouTube. Her own song "Where You Go I Go" has over four million views on YouTube.
Early Life:
Kim Walker was "raised in a small farm town called Klamath Falls, Oregon."[1] Her parents divorced when she was four years old and her family moved frequently, causing her to be shy and withdrawn as a result of always being "the new kid". Walker stated that her family "for generations has been very musical and my mom put me on a stage when I was three. I grew up singing and was very involved in musical theater."
Career and Personal Life:
In her early adulthood, Walker moved to Redding, California to attend a Christian college, but was struggling with her grades and wasn't happy attending university. One night while driving around she cried out to the Lord, and came across a 24-hour prayer house that had been recently set up by Bethel Church. Venturing inside, Walker was captivated and attended their church service the following Sunday. After a year she left university to attend the [School of Supernatural Ministry] (BSSM). She graduated from the BSSM after completing their two-year program, and after two more years was hired by the church as a worship pastor. [1] Walker has stated that the "greatest desire of [her] heart is to see God's kingdom and power manifest for people to be set free, healed, and radically changed as they encounter God in worship."
In 2005, Walker's "powerful voice won her $25,000 cash in an "American Idol" type of competition called "So You Want to Be a Star," which aired on Chico television station KRVU. [She] is considered by many to be a forerunner in a new kind of worship referred to as prophetic worship." [7] Walker has cited Misty Edwards of the International House of Prayer and Suzy Yaraei of Morning Star Ministries, both prominent worship leaders in the evangelical community, as her greatest musical influences.
In 2009, Walker married Skyler Smith, another worship leader who also does graphic design and photography; they now live in San Francisco.[8] She now releases music under the name Kim Walker-Smith instead of her maiden name.[7] In addition to her career of solo albums, she is also a member of the band Jesus Culture, which began as a youth worship band at Bethel, but now hosts multiple worship conferences around the country and produces a live record each year, in addition to frequently leading worship at Bethel. [9] In 2010, Walker-Smith stated that she was "at Bethel once to twice a month right now. We travel about three to four times a month. About 40 percent of that is Jesus Culture."[1] She has also expressed a desire for her music to expand into the secular community, expressing a passion for social justice and "to see the arts and creativity restored and a new standard set"..."I've always looked at music as a vehicle to get me to people".
