XL President of the United States: 1981 - 1989
Remarks Announcing the Establishment of the Blue Ribbon Commission on Defense Management
June 17, 1985
Ladies and gentlemen, during the past 4 years we have made great progress in rebuilding our national defense and in confronting the challenge of effective defense management. Credit rightly goes to our civilian defense leadership, particularly Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger. It also goes to our men and women in uniform and to the American people for their support in our efforts.
We've accomplished a great deal, and we have much to be proud of, but there's still a great deal left to do. When our administration began its activities, the problem of defense management we knew would be demanding and difficult, almost as difficult as I had getting that sentence out. [Laughter] There were various barriers to efficient management, including legislative barriers, that stubbornly defied our efforts to remove them. And that's why I appointed an individual with unmatched management credentials when I appointed Cap Weinberger. And while overseeing our much-needed buildup of our defensive strength, Cap has done a tremendous job at ferreting out waste and fraud. That's one of the reasons why you hear about it in the news.
But a public misconception has developed from all of this, a misconception born, at least in part, of a drumbeat of propaganda and demagoguery that denies the real accomplishment of these last 4 years. The situation reminds me of the old saying, "Don't clean the skeletons out of the closet. They'll accuse you of murder."

Crash Landing in Sioux City
Aired Tuesday 9:00 PM Sep 13, 2005 on National Geographic
On July 19, 1989, United Airlines flight 232 experienced a catastrophic failure on its number two tail mounted engine during the flight. The tail engine's fan disc split, severing all the hydraulic lines. The plane was uncontrollable and plunged towards the runway at speeds of almost three times the normal rate. It cartwheeled and broke into three parts, before erupting into a massive fireball. Of the 285 passengers onboard, 112 were killed.

Art of the Third Reich
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The art of the Third Reich, the officially approved art produced in Nazi Germany
Popular art
Mass culture was less stringently regulated than high culture, possibly because the authorities feared the consequences of too heavy-handed interference in popular entertainment. Thus, until the outbreak of the war, most Hollywood films could be screened, including It Happened One Night, San Francisco, and Gone with the Wind. While performance of atonal music was banned, the prohibition of jazz was less strictly enforced. Benny Goodman and Django Reinhardt were popular, and leading English and American jazz bands continued to perform in major cities until the war; thereafter, dance bands officially played "swing" rather than the banned jazz.
A film premiered in Berlin on November 28, 1940, which was clearly a tool used to promote Nazi Ideology. The release of the film Der ewige Jude (The Eternal Jew) was only two months prior to the announcement made by German officials of the establishment of the ghetto in Lodz, Poland. The film was portrayed in the Nazi press as a documentary to emphasize the cinema as truth, when in reality it was nothing more than propaganda to raise hatred against the Jewish community to its viewers.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_Un-American_Activities_Committee
House Un-American Activities Committee
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The House Committee on Un-American Activities (HUAC) was an investigative committee of the United States House of Representatives. It was created in 1938 to investigate alleged disloyalty and subversive activities on the part of private citizens, public employees, and those organizations suspected of having Communist ties. In 1969, the House changed the committee's name to "House Committee on Internal Security". When the House abolished the committee in 1975, its functions were transferred to the House Judiciary Committee.
Whittaker Chambers and Alger Hiss
In late July 1948, the committee heard testimony from Elizabeth Bentley, an American who had been working as a Soviet agent in New York. Among those whom she named as communists were Harry Dexter White and Whittaker Chambers. The committee subpoenaed Chambers for early August 1948. Chambers, too, was a former Soviet spy, by then foreign desk editor of Time magazine. Chambers cited the names of more than a half dozen government officials including White as well as Alger Hiss (and Hiss's brother Donald). The majority of these former officials refused to answer committee questions, citing the Fifth Amendment. White denied the allegations and died of a heart attack a few days later. Alger Hiss also denied all charges. However, during his testimony, Hiss made a number of false statements for which he was later convicted of perjury and imprisoned. The present-day House of Representatives website on HUAC states that "In the 1990s, Soviet archives conclusively revealed that Hiss had been a spy on the Kremlin's payroll."

In real life: On Tuesday, Bolten gave up his job as budget director to become President Bush's new chief of staff. He replaces Andrew Card, who resigned after five years on the job. With Bush's approval ratings at all-time lows, Bolten will have to be careful not to run afoul of a "burst of anger" from voters.

We will, of course, discuss areas of interest, like economic matters. We will discuss North Korea and Iran. I look forward to a discussion about making sure we work together to deal with a potential pandemic in avian flu.

CHAPTER 23
OVERWATCH
To many people a revolutionary is a romantic character, ii person who believes in a vision of the future and is willing to risk his life for it. From that comes his social status. Those who know such people often respect them. Therefore, to lose that status injures the former revolutionary. He must now work for a living, drive a truck or whatever he is capable of-"
"Like what happened to you when the KGB RIF'd you, in other words," Henriksen offered. Popov had to nod at that. "In a way, yes. As a field officer of State Security, I had status and importance enjoyed by few others in the Soviet Union, and losing that was more significant to me than the loss of my modest salary. It will be the same for these Irish Marxists. And so they have two reasons for wanting the disorders to continue: their political ideological beliefs, and their need for personal recognition as something more than ordinary worker-citizens."
"Do you know such people?" Henriksen asked pointedly.
"Yes, I can probably identify some. I met many in the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon, where they trained with other 'progressive elements.' And I have traveled to Ireland on occasion to deliver messages and money to support their activities. Those operations tied up large segments of the British Army, you see, and were, therefore, worthy of Soviet support as a distraction to a large NATO enemy."

CHAPTER 22
COUNTERMEASURES
"So, you mean people could be listening in on every phone call I make?"
Popov nodded. "Of course. Why do you suppose all of our substantive conversations have been made face-to-face?" Now he was really shaken, Dmitriy Arkadeyevich saw. The genius was a babe-in-the-woods. "Now, perhaps, is the time for you to tell me why I have undertaken these missions for you?"
"Yes, Minister… excellent… thank you," Bob Aukland said into his cellular phone. He thumbed the END button and put the phone back in his pocket, then turned to Bill Henriksen. "Good news. We'll have that Rainbow group down to consult on our security as well."
"Oh?" Bill observed. "Well, I guess it can't hurt all that much."
"Nose a little out of joint?" the cop asked.
"Not really," Henriksen lied. "I probably know a few of them, and they know me."
"And your fee will remain the same, Bill," the Aussie said. They headed off to his car, and from there they'd drive to a pub for a few pints before he drove the American off to the airport.
Oh, shit, the American thought. Once more the Law of Unintended Consequences had risen up to bite him in the ass. His mind went briefly into overdrive, but then persuaded itself that it didn't really matter all that much as long as he did his job right. It might even help, he told himself, almost believing it.
He couldn't tell Popov, Brightling knew. He trusted him in many ways - hell, what Popov knew could put him in federal prison, even on death row - but to tell him what this was really all about? No, he couldn't risk that. He didn't know Popov's views on the Environment and Nature. So he couldn't predict the Russian's reaction to the project. Popov was dangerous to him in many ways, like a falcon trained to the fist, but still a free agent, willing to kill a quail or a rabbit, perhaps, but never entirely his, always able to fly off and reclaim his previous free life… and if he was free to do that, he was also free to give information to others. Not for the first time, Brightling thought about having Bill Henriksen take care of this potential problem. He'd know how. Surely, the former FBI agent knew how to investigate a murder, and thus how to befuddle the investigators as well, and this little problem would go away.
Assets, Brightling thought next. What other things could he do to make his position and his Project more secure? If this Rainbow was a problem, would it be possible to strike at it directly? To destroy it at best, or at worst, distract it, force it to focus in another direction?

Stung!
A swarm of new media stories on young George W. Bush's dereliction of duty pops his heroic-leadership bubble.
BY ERIC BOEHLERT
TOPICS: GEORGE W. BUSH, TEXAS, NEWS
On Feb. 13, as controversy swirled around President Bush’s service in the Texas Air National Guard during the Vietnam War, the White House released more than 400 pages of documents on the press corps, proving, it claimed, that Bush had served honorably and fulfilled his commitment. The sudden rush of records
Somewhere in my journal I wrote about something I did at Microsoft back in the year 2002. Back in the year 2002 I made copies of my performance evaluations from the United States Navy between 1984 and 1990 and posted images of those documents, as well as the letter of commendation from Chandler, on a shared folder I created on the Microsoft corporate internal network and I told my co-workers about it. I know people read the documents because Sharon asked me about it. Blair Shaw told me he spoke about it with a friend of his from the USS Abraham Lincoln over there across the bay from Seattle or where ever it was. That was about the time I went out and purchashed that flashy brand-new titanium Litespeed road racing bicycle from REI in Redmond.

CONTROL ROOM. Doctor Rodney McKay has been waiting for Elizabeth in her office but hurries out as she comes up the stairs, gesturing to the computer tablet he is holding.
McKAY: Can I please have someone else do these?
WEIR: Performance evaluations?
(She leads him back into her office.)
McKAY: Yes.
WEIR: No. Year-end employee reviews are important. They’re how people get promotions, and raises.
McKAY: OK, look. Asking me to do performance evaluations is ridiculous. I am the first person to admit ... (he gestures out to the rest of the city) ...I don’t know who these people are, nor do I care to. Look, if you’d like, I could take you down the hall to the labs and just point at the people who annoy me more than the rest, but that’s about as useful as I get.
(The doors to the hallway open and Lieutenant Colonel John Sheppard walks in. He walks over to Elizabeth’s desk and drops a computer tablet onto it.)
SHEPPARD: All done.
McKAY: Oh, of course(!)
WEIR (picking up John’s tablet while looking pointedly at Rodney): That was quick!
(John smiles at Rodney smugly. Elizabeth frowns down at the tablet.)
WEIR: Hey, John, wait a minute. You’ve just given everyone excellent and above averages.
McKAY: Ooh! Can I do that?
(He reaches down to type on his tablet.)
WEIR: No! I know this is not the most glamorous part of your job, but you are in leadership positions and, unfortunately, that comes with administrative responsibilities.
SHEPPARD: Well, everybody who works for me is excellent and above average. You want me to lie? ‘Cause I don’t think leaders should lie, Elizabeth.

I thought after waking up about a dream I awoke startled from but I forget now some of the details. The part I remember now is that I seemed to be on the mess decks of the USS Wainwright CG 28 and there were some other details before that but that is the part I cannot now remember. I was on the mess decks of the Wainwright and I seemed to be wearing the dungaree uniform of a U.S. Navy enlisted sailor and an officer, who I think was the actor Danny Glover, sort of reprising his role in the 1991 film "Flight of the Intruder" sat down across the table from me and was delivering a form to me that was my performance review. I thought he indicated that my score was all 5.0 which is the highest rating, although I don't think that is consistent with the U.S. Navy and is something from somewhere else, but as another person seated next to me pointed out, my ratings were actually all marked in the column for 7.0, which was well off the chart, so to speak. I also noticed a '10' for some undefined item that was at the top of the list in that column of 7.0 ratings but I do not know what it was, other than it would indicate and impressive rating. There was another number just below it but I cannot visualize what it was but it might have been a '7' and that was also unheard of. Danny Glover might have said some things to me but I cannot now remember what it was. It seems that just after that, a group of sailors were being called away from the mess decks to another location and that group was all the Chief Petty Officer selectee's, which included me after I received that performance review. I noticed what seemed to be some sailors from foreign navies in that group as well. Some sailors were in khakis while I saw at least one or two other sailors in dungarees as I was wearing. We were going into some kind of compartment where Danny Glover, who was with us, was, I guess, going to talk to us. To enter the compartment was a narrow entranceway in the bulkhead that you had to get down on the deck and crawl through. I awoke with a start and a heavy sense of claustrophobia because I was stuck in that entrance. I saw a few other sailors enter into it with no problem. But when I went through, my shoulders got stuck. I managed to continue through but then my abdomen got stuck and that was when I awoke with a start and that really bad feeling.

Work of the devil
Here is an article to support my theory about Microsoft's Manchurian Candidate. I think it was supposed to be me. I have the video game experience they need, I have some world experience that would at least get me noticed. They need someone with more experience than just playing video games. They need someone that has that video game mentality but that also has some real world experience. Microsoft obviously can't buy a friend in the U.S. government so it is my strong belief they wanted to place someone in there as their representative, their own Manchurian Candidate. I believe it was supposed to be me. Heck, I might have even gone along with it if not for their "Communistsoft" approach to this with a bunch of out-of-touch dictator-types trying to control my mind with a plan that would make Stalin proud. That reminds of something else I was thinking of last year when I felt like I was connected to everything going on. If I was forced into becoming some kind of political candidate, I could imagine there would be "Perrys for Kerry" and then there would have to be "Perrys Against Kerry" or something like "Fast Frigate Veterans For Kerry", etc. Pretty funny stuff.

But as I have learned from this infuriating chapter of my life, there are problems that produce mental health issues and there are mental health issues that produce problems.
If they treated 100 people for the problems I am describing, it is probable that 99 of them would be delusional. But my argument has been that I am that one person that is not delusional. Sure, I am feeling paranoid, but it is a healthy paranoia. It is a normal reaction to a threat in my environment. How many more years am I going to have to live thinking no one understands?
This excerpt also describes something else I picked up on. I could just imagine all these people out there reading my private emails and scrutinizing every word I wrote. I could write enough to fill a book about my thoughts on that. And then there is the part about the photographs. I know someone has been taking photos of me for a long time. This one guy with a telephoto lens even made it obvious a couple times in Coeur d'Alene. He stopped in the middle of the road there next to the CDA beach and was standing there with his camera and telephoto lens. He even drove a black Jeep like mine. I thought that was a good sign, that he was revealing himself. It meant they were wrapping things up and would soon be in contact with me with explanations. That was over a year ago.

Epic poetry agrees with Tragedy in so far as it is an imitation in verse of characters of a higher type. They differ, in that Epic poetry admits but one kind of metre, and is narrative in form. They differ, again, in their length: for Tragedy endeavours, as far as possible, to confine itself to a single revolution of the sun, or but slightly to exceed this limit; whereas the Epic action has no limits of time.

House Un-American Activities Committee
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The House Committee on Un-American Activities (HUAC) was an investigative committee of the United States House of Representatives. It was created in 1938 to investigate alleged disloyalty and subversive activities on the part of private citizens, public employees, and those organizations suspected of having Communist ties. In 1969, the House changed the committee's name to "House Committee on Internal Security". When the House abolished the committee in 1975, its functions were transferred to the House Judiciary Committee.

When the House abolished the committee in 1975, its functions were transferred to the House Judiciary Committee.
Standing committee (1945–1975)
The House Committee on Un-American Activities became a standing (permanent) committee in 1945. Representative Edward J. Hart of New Jersey became the committee's first chairman. Under the mandate of Public Law 601, passed by the 79th Congress, the committee of nine representatives investigated suspected threats of subversion or propaganda that attacked "the form of government guaranteed by our Constitution."[citation needed]
Under this mandate, the committee focused its investigations on real and suspected communists in positions of actual or supposed influence in the United States society. A significant step for HUAC was its investigation of the charges of espionage brought against Alger Hiss in 1948. This investigation ultimately resulted in Hiss's trial and conviction for perjury, and convinced many of the usefulness of congressional committees for uncovering communist subversion.

Hollywood blacklist
In 1947, the committee held nine days of hearings into alleged communist propaganda and influence in the Hollywood motion picture industry. After conviction on contempt of Congress charges for refusal to answer some questions posed by committee members, the "Hollywood Ten" were blacklisted by the industry. Eventually, more than 300 artists—including directors, radio commentators, actors and particularly screenwriters—were boycotted by the studios. Some, like Charlie Chaplin, Orson Welles, Paul Robeson and Yip Harburg, left the U.S or went underground to find work. Others wrote under pseudonyms or the names of colleagues. Only about ten percent succeeded in rebuilding careers within the entertainment industry.[citation needed]
In 1947, studio executives told the committee that wartime films—such as Mission to Moscow, The North Star, and Song of Russia—could be considered pro-Soviet propaganda, but claimed that the films were valuable in the context of the Allied war effort, and that they were made (in the case of Mission to Moscow) at the request of White House officials.

Mail and wire fraud
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the United States, mail and wire fraud is any fraudulent scheme to intentionally deprive another of property or honest services via mail or wire communication. It has been a federal crime in the United States since 1872.
History
In the 1960s and '70s, inspectors under regional chief postal inspectors such as Martin McGee, known as "Mr. Mail Fraud," exposed and prosecuted numerous swindles involving land sales, phony advertising practices, insurance ripoffs, and fraudulent charitable organizations using mail fraud charges.
Text
18 U.S.C. § 1341 provides:
Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, or to sell, dispose of, loan, exchange, alter, give away, distribute, supply, or furnish or procure for unlawful use any counterfeit or spurious coin, obligation, security, or other article, or anything represented to be or intimated or held out to be such counterfeit or spurious article, for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice or attempting so to do, places in any post office or authorized depository for mail matter, any matter or thing whatever to be sent or delivered by the Postal Service, or deposits or causes to be deposited any matter or thing whatever to be sent or delivered by any private or commercial interstate carrier, or takes or receives therefrom, any such matter or thing, or knowingly causes to be delivered by mail or such carrier according to the direction thereon, or at the place at which it is directed to be delivered by the person to whom it is addressed, any such matter or thing, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.

felony murder doctrine
a rule of criminal statutes that any death which occurs during the commission of a felony is first degree murder, and all participants in that felony or attempted felony can be charged with and found guilty of murder. A typical example is a robbery involving more than one criminal, in which one of them shoots, beats to death or runs over a store clerk, killing the clerk. Even if the death were accidental, all of the participants can be found guilty of felony murder, including those who did no harm, had no gun, and/or did not intend to hurt anyone.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felony_murder_rule
Felony murder rule
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The rule of felony murder is a legal doctrine in some common law jurisdictions that broadens the crime of murder in two ways. First, when an offender kills accidentally or without specific intent to kill in the commission of a felony, the offender can be charged with murder. Second, it makes any participant in such a felony criminally liable for any deaths that occur during or in furtherance of that felony.
While there is debate about the original scope of the rule, modern interpretations typically require that the felony be an inherently dangerous one, or one committed in an obviously dangerous manner. For this reason, the felony murder rule is often justified by its supporters as a means of deterring dangerous felonies.
According to some commentators, the common law rule dates to the twelfth century and took its modern form in the eighteenth century. Critics of the rule argue that the rule is unjust because it requires no intent to kill. In favor of the rule, it can be argued that the rule affirms for principle of the sanctity of human life by imposing harsher penalties for crimes that destroy human life.

Though the man seems curiously uncomfortable with his priestly duties, his tough tactics prove very successful in the Seven Villages, as around them China disintegrates in civil war and revolution. But he has a secret, and his friendship with mission nurse Anne (an attractive war widow) seems to be taking on an unpriestly tone...

CHAPTER 28
BROAD DAYLIGHT
Popov was watching the whole area with his binoculars. A third military truck came into view. He looked at it and saw more men sitting in the back, probably reinforcements for the people already outside the hospital. He returned his attention to the area that already had soldiers. Closer examination showed… was that John Clark? he wondered. Standing away from the others. Well, if his wife were a hostage now, that made sense to let another-he had to have a second-in-command for his organization-command the operation. So, he'd just be standing there now, looking tense in his suit.
"Excuse me." Popov turned to see a reporter and a cameraman, and closed his eyes in a silent curse.
"Yes?"
"Could you give us your impressions of what is happening here? First of all, your name, and what causes you to be here."
"Well, I-my name-my name is Jack Smith," Popov said, in his best London accent. "And I was out here in the country-birding, you see. I was out here to enjoy nature, it's a nice day, you see, and-"
"Mr. Smith, have you any idea what is happening down there?"
"No, no, not really." He didn't take his eyes away from the binoculars, not wanting to give them a look at his face. Nichevo! There was Sean Grady, standing with Roddy Sands. Had he believed in God, he would have invoked His name at that moment, seeing what they were doing, and knowing exactly what they were thinking in this flashpoint in time.
Grady bent down and opened his parcel, removing the AKMS assault-rifle from it. Then he slapped in the magazine, extended the folding stock, and in one smooth motion stood to straight and brought it to his shoulder. A second later he took aim and fired into the group of black clad soldiers. A second after that, the men in the trucks did the same.
There was no warning at all. Bullets hit the side of the truck behind which they'd been sheltering, but before Team- I had the time to react, the bullets came in on their bodies. Four men dropped in the first two seconds. By that time, the rest had jumped away and down, their eyes looking around for the source of the fire.
Noonan saw them crumple, and it took a second or so of shock for him to realize what was happening. Then he spoke into his tactical radio: "Warning, warning, Team-1 is under fire from the rear!" At the same time his eyes were searching for the source-it had to be right there, in that big truck. The FBI agent floored his accelerator and dashed that way, his right hand reaching for his pistol.
Master Chief Mike Chin was down with a bullet in each sipper leg. The suddenness only made the pain worse. He'd been totally unprepared for this, and the pain paralyzed him for several seconds, until training reasserted itself, and he tried to crawl to cover. "Chin is hit, Chin is hit," lie gasped over the radio, then turned to see another Team1 member down, blood gushing from the side of his head.
Sergeant Houston's head snapped off his scope, and turned right with the sudden and unexpected noise of automatic-weapons fire. What the hell? He saw what appeared to be the muzzle of a rifle sticking out the side of one of the trucks, and he swung his rifle up and off the ground to the right to try to acquire a target. Roddy Sands saw the movement. The sniper was where he remembered, but covered as he was in his camouflage blanket, it was hard to track in on him. The movement Fixed that, and the shot was only about a hundred fifty meters. Holding low and left, he pulled the trigger and held it down, walking his rounds through the shape on the side of the hill, firing long, then pulling back down to hit at it again.
Houston got one round off, but it went wild as a bullet penetrated his right shoulder, blasting right through his body armor, which was sufficient to stop a pistol round but not a bullet from a rifle. Neither courage nor muscle strength could make broken bones work. The impact made his body collapse, and a second later, Houston knew that his right arm would not work at all. On instinct he rolled to his left, while his left hand tried to reach across his body for his service pistol

It was easier for Fred Franklin. Too far away for easy fire from one of the terrorists' weapons, he was also well concealed under his blanket. It took him a few seconds to realize what was going on, but the screams and groans over his radio earpiece told him that some team members had been badly hurt. He swept his scope sight over the area, and saw one gun muzzle sticking out the side of a truck. Franklin flipped off his safety, took aim, and loosed his first.50-caliber round of the fight. The muzzle blast of his own weapon shattered the local silence. The big MacMillan sniper rifle fired the same cartridge as the.50-caliber heavy machine gun, sending a two-ounce bullet off at?,700 feet per second, covering the distance in less than a third of a second and drilling a half-inch hole into the soft side of the truck, but there was no telling if it hit a target or not. He swept the rifle left, looking for another target. He passed over another big truck, and saw the holes in the cover, but nothing inside of them. More to the left-there, there was a guy holding a rifle and firing-off to where Sam was. Sergeant First Class Fred Franklin worked his bolt, loaded a second round, and took careful aim.
Roddy Sands was sure he'd hit his target, and was now trying to kill it. To his left, Sean was already back in his car, starting it for the getaway that had to begin in less than two minutes.

Art of the Third Reich
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The art of the Third Reich, the officially approved art produced in Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1945, was characterized by a style of Romantic realism based on classical models. While banning modern styles as degenerate, the Nazis promoted paintings and sculptures that were narrowly traditional in manner and that exalted the "blood and soil" values of racial purity, militarism, and obedience. Other popular themes for Nazi art were the Volk at work in the fields, a return to the simple virtues of Heimat (love of homeland), the manly virtues of the National Socialist struggle, and the lauding of the female activities of child bearing and raising symbolized by the phrase Kinder, Küche, Kirche ("children, kitchen, church").
Similarly, music was expected to be tonal and free of jazz influence; films and plays were censored.
Nazi art bears a close similarity to the Soviet propaganda art style of Socialist Realism, and the term heroic realism has sometimes been used to describe both artistic styles.
Historical background
The early twentieth century was characterized by startling changes in artistic styles. In the visual arts, such innovations as cubism, Dada and surrealism, following hot on the heels of Symbolism, post-Impressionism and Fauvism, were not universally appreciated. The majority of people in Germany, as elsewhere, did not care for the new art which many resented as elitist, morally suspect and too often incomprehensible.
During recent years, Germany had become a major center of avant-garde art. It was the birthplace of Expressionism in painting and sculpture, the atonal musical compositions of Arnold Schoenberg, and the jazz-influenced work of Paul Hindemith and Kurt Weill. Robert Wiene's The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Fritz Lang's Metropolis brought expressionism to cinema.
The Nazis viewed the culture of the Weimar period with disgust. Their response stemmed partly from conservative aesthetics and partly from their determination to use culture as propaganda. Upon becoming dictator in 1933, Adolf Hitler gave his personal artistic preference the force of law to a degree rarely known before. Only in Joseph Stalin's Soviet Union, where Socialist Realism had become the mandatory style, had a state shown such concern with regulation of the arts. In the case of Germany, the model was to be classical Greek and Roman art, seen by Hitler as an art whose exterior form embodied an inner racial ideal. It was, furthermore, to be comprehensible to the average man. This art was to be both heroic and romantic.

Creation of the Reichskulturkammer
In September 1933 the Reichskulturkammer (Reich Culture Chamber) was established, with Joseph Goebbels, Hitler's Reichminister für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda (Reich Minister for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda) in charge. Subchambers within the Culture Chamber, representing the individual arts (music, film, literature, architecture, and the visual arts) were created; these were membership groups consisting of "racially pure" artists supportive of the Party, or willing to be compliant. Goebbels made it clear: "In future only those who are members of a chamber are allowed to be productive in our cultural life. Membership is open only to those who fulfill the entrance condition. In this way all unwanted and damaging elements have been excluded."

Carol Brightling stood in her office. She'd just printed up a letter to the chief of staff saying that she'd be taking a leave of absence to work on a special scientific project. She'd discussed this matter with Arnie van Damm earlier in the day and gotten no serious objection to her departure. She would not be missed, his body language had told her quite clearly. Well, she thought with a cold look at the computer screen, neither would he, when it came to that.
Dr. Brightling tucked the letter in an envelope, sealed it, and left it on her assistant's desk for transfer into the White House proper the next day. She'd done her job for the Project and for the planet, and it was now time for her to leave. It had been so long, so very long, since she'd felt
John's arms around her. The divorce had been well publicized. It had had to be: She would never have gotten the White House job if she'd been married to one of the country'srichest men. And so, she'd forsworn him, and he'd publicly forsworn the movement, the beliefs they'd both held ten years before when they'd formulated the idea for the Project, but he'd never stopped believing, any more than she had. And so she'd gotten all the way inside the government, and gotten a security clearance that gave her access to literally everything, even operational intelligence, which she then forwarded to John when he needed it. Most especially, she'd gotten access to biological-warfare information, so that they knew what USAMRIID and others had done to protect America, and so knew how to engineer Shiva in such a way as to defeat any proposed vaccine except those which Horizon Corporation had formulated.
But it had had its own price. John had been seen in public with all manner of young women, and had doubtless dallied with many of them, for he'd always been a passionate man. It was something they hadn't discussed before their public divorce, and for that reason it had come to her as an unpleasant surprise to see him at those occasional social functions they both had to attend, always with a pretty young thing on his arm-always a different one, since he'd never formed a realrelationship with anyone but her. Carol Brightling told herself that this was good, since it meant that she was the only woman really a part of John's life, and thus those annoying young women were merely a way for him to dissipate his male hormones… But it hadn't been easy to see, and harder still to think about, alone in her home, with only Jiggs for company, and often as not weeping in her loneliness.
But set against that small personal consideration was the Project. The White House job had merely fortified her beliefs. She'd seen it all here, Carol Brightling reminded herself, from the specifications for new nuclear weapons to bio-war reports. The Iranian attempt at a national plague, which had predated her government job, had both frightened and encouraged her. Frightened, because it had been a real threat to the country, and one that could have begun a massive effort to counter a future attack.

Blood and Soil
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blood and Soil (German: Blut und Boden) refers to an ideology that focuses on ethnicity based on two factors, descent blood (of a folk) and homeland/Heimat (Soil). It celebrates the relationship of a people to the land they occupy and cultivate, and it places a high value on the virtues of rural living.
Nazi ideology
The doctrine not only called for a "back to the land" approach and re-adoption of rural values; it held that German land was bound, perhaps mystically, to German blood. Peasants were the Nazi cultural heroes, who held charge of German racial stock and German history—as when a memorial of a medieval peasant uprising was the occasion for a speech by Darré praising them as force and purifier of German history. This would also lead them to understand the natural order better, and in the end, only the man who worked the land really possessed it. Urban culture was decried as a weakness, "asphalt culture", that only the Führer's will could eliminate—sometimes as a code for Jewish influence.
It contributed to the Nazi ideal of a woman: a sturdy peasant, who worked the land and bore strong children, contributing to praise for athletic women tanned by outdoor work. That country women gave birth to more children than city ones also was a factor in the support.
Carl Schmitt argued that a people would develop laws appropriate to its "blood and soil" because authenticity required loyalty to the Volk over abstract universals.
Neues Volk displayed demographic charts to deplore the destruction of the generous Aryan families' farmland and how the Jews were eradicating traditional German peasantry. Posters for schools depicted and deplored the flight of people from the countryside to the city. The German National Catechism, a pamphlet widely used in schools, also recounted how farmers lost ancestral lands and had to move to the city, with all its demoralizing effects.

It celebrates the relationship of a people to the land they occupy and cultivate, and it places a high value on the virtues of rural living.
How blood and soil influenced art
Fiction
Prior to the Nazi take-over, two popular genres were the Heimat-Roman, or regional novel, and Schollen-Roman, or novel of the soil, which was also known as Blut-und-Boden. This literature was vastly increased, the term being contracted into a slogan "Blu-Bo", and developed a mysticism of unity. It also combined war literature with the figure of the soldier-peasant, uncontaminated by the city. These books were generally set in the nominal past, but their invocation of the passing of the seasons often gave them an air of timelessness. "Blood and soil" novels and theater celebrated the farmer's life and human fertility, often mystically linking them.
One of the anti-Semitic fabrications in the children's book Der Giftpilz was the claim that the Talmud described farming as the most lowly of occupations. It also included an account of a Jewish financier forcing a German to sell his farm as seen by a neighbor boy; deeply distressed, the boy resolved never to let a Jew into his house, for which his father praised him, on the grounds that peasants must remember that Jews will always take their land.
Fine art
During the Nazi period in Germany, one of the charges put forward against certain works of art was that "Art must not be isolated from blood and soil." Failure to meet this standard resulted in the attachment of the label, "degenerate art", to offending pieces. In the art of the Third Reich, both landscape paintings and figures reflected blood-and-soil ideology. Indeed, some Nazi art exhibits were explicitly titled "Blood and Soil". Artists frequently gave otherwise apolitical paintings such titles as "German Land" or "German Oak". Rural themes were heavily favored in painting. Landscape paintings were featured most heavily in the Greater German Art Exhibitions. While drawing on German romantic traditions, painted landscapes were expected to be firmly based on real landscapes, the German people's Lebensraum, without religious overtones. Peasants were also popular images, promoting a simple life in harmony with nature. This art showed no sign of the mechanization of farm work. The farmer labored by hand, with effort and struggle.

CHAPTER 39
HARMONY
Gearing pulled the bag from his head and oriented himself, spotted the lights for Project Alternate, a facility he knew about but had never visited, and headed there without looking back.
At the east end, the Night Hawk again came in to hover a foot or so off the ground. The Rainbow troops leaped out, and the helicopter immediately climbed up for the return trip to Manaus, which would be made into the rising sun. Malloy and Harrison put on their sunglasses and held course, keeping a close watch on their fuel state. The 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment maintained its helos pretty well, the Marine thought, flexing his gloved hands on the controls. Just like the Air Force pukes in England.
Noonan was the first to get set up. All the troops ran immediately into the thick cover a scant hundred yards from the thick concrete pavement of the runway and headed west, wondering if Gearing had noted their separate arrival here. It took fully half an hour for them to make their way over a distance that, had they run it, would have taken scarcely ten minutes. For all that, Clark thought it was good time-and now he remembered the creepy feeling that came from being in the jungle, where the very air seemed alive with things hoping to suck one's blood and give you whatever diseases would take your life as slowly and painfully as possible. How the hell had he endured the nineteen months he'd spent in Vietnam? Ten minutes here and he was ready to leave. Around him, massive hardwood trees reached two or three hundred feet to the sky to form the top canopy of this fetid place, with secondary trees reaching about a third that height, and yet another that stopped at fifty or so, with bushes and other plants at his feet. He could hear the sound of' movement-whether his own people or animals he couldn't be sure, though he knew that this environment supported all manner of life, most of it unfriendly to humans. His people spread out to the north, most of them plucking branches to tuck under the elastic bands that ran around their Kevlar helmets, the better to break up the outline of their unnatural shapes and improve their concealment.
The front door of the building was unlocked, Gearing found, amazed that this should be so. He walked into what appeared to be a residential building, entered an elevator, punched the topmost button and arrived on the fourth floor. Once there, it was just a matter of opening one of the double doors on the corridor and flipping on a light in what had to be the master suite. The bedroom doors were open, and he walked that way.
John Brightling's eyes reported the sudden blaze of light from the sitting room. He opened them and saw-
"What the hell are you doing here, Wil?"
"They brought me down, John."
"Who brought you down?"
"The people who captured me in Sydney," Gearing explained.
"What?" It was a little much for so early in the morning. Brightling stood and put on the robe next to the bed.
"John, what is it?" Carol asked from her side of the bed.
"Nothing, honey, just relax." John went to the sitting room, pulling the doors closed as he did so.
"What the fuck is going on, Wil?"
"They're here, John."
"Who's here?"
"The counterterror people, the ones who went to Australia, the ones who arrested me. They're here, John!" Gearing told him, looking around the room, thoroughly disoriented by all the traveling he'd done and not sure of much of anything at the moment.
"Here? Where? In the building?"
"No." Gearing shook his head. "They dropped me off by helicopter. Their boss is a guy named Clark. He said to tell you that you have to surrender-unconditional surrender, John."
"Or else what?" Brightling demanded.

"It's called Shiva," he began, and went on for several minutes.
For Popov it was a time to put his professional face back on. His emotions were neutralized while he listened. He even managed a smile which masked his inner horror.
"But how do you distribute it?"
"Well, you see, John has a company that also works for him. Global Security-the boss man's a guy named Henriksen."
"Ah, yes, I know him. He was in your FBI."
"Oh? I knew he was a cop, but not a fed. Anyway, they got the consulting contract withthe Aussies for the Olympics, and one of Bill's people will be spreading the Shiva. Something to do with the air-conditioning system at the stadium, they tell me. They're going to spread it on the last day, see, and the closing ceremonies. The next day everyone flies home, and then, like, thousands of people all take the bug home with them."
"But what protects us?"
"You got a shot when you came here, right?"
"Yes, Killgore said it was a booster for something."
"Oh, it was, Dmitriy. It's a booster, all right. It's the vaccine that protects you against Shiva. I got it, too. That's the `B' vaccine, pal. There's another one, they tell me, the `A' vaccine, but that one's not the one you want to get." Hunnicutt explained on.
"How do you know all this?" Popov asked.
"Well, you see, in case people figure this out, I'm one of the guys who helped set up the perimeter security System here. So, they told me why the Project needs perimeter security. It's pretty serious shit, man. If anyone were to find out about what was done, hell, they might even nuke us, y'know?" Foster pointed out with a grin.

July 27
Delegates attending an American Legion convention at The Bellevue Stratford Hotel in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, US, begin falling ill with a form of pneumonia: this will eventually be recognised as the first outbreak of Legionellosis.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legionellosis
Legionellosis
Legionellosis is a potentially fatal infectious disease caused by Gram negative, aerobic bacteria belonging to the genus Legionella. Over 90% of legionellosis cases are caused by Legionella pneumophila, a ubiquitous aquatic organism that thrives in temperatures between 25 and 45 °C (77 and 113 °F), with an optimum around 35 °C (95 °F).

After a quarter century, outbreak still holds mystery A definite conclusion has never been reached on how Legionnaires fell ill in '76.
June 13, 2002 By Robert Moran INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
The American Legion statewide convention at the Bellevue Stratford Hotel in 1976 appeared to go off without a hitch.
After four days - from July 21 to 24 - thousands of Legionnaires and their families went home.
And then some of them started getting sick.
It felt like the flu, with symptoms of fever, chills, coughing and aches.
On July 27, retired Air Force Capt. Raymond Brennan died. Within a month, 29 people linked to the convention were dead, out of about 200 who had been stricken with the illness.

Legionnaires' disease remains underreported after 25 years
Published: Monday, July 30, 2001 12:55 p.m. MDT
PHILADELPHIA — Twenty-five years after Legionnaires' disease was first identified, public health officials are still trying to get doctors and hospitals to pay closer attention to the disease.
As many as 90 percent of Legionnaires' cases go unreported, and only one in five U.S. hospitals routinely tests for the pneumonia-like illness, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"We think it's important for doctors to have a heightened suspicion of the possibility of Legionnaires' disease," especially in the elderly, smokers, transplant recipients and others with weakened immune systems, said Dr. Anne Schuchat, chief of the CDC's respiratory diseases branch.
The illness was discovered in 1976, when 34 people died and 221 became ill at an American Legion convention in Philadelphia. Retired Air Force Capt. Raymond Brennan was the first known victim, succumbing on July 27, 1976. The CDC identified the bacterium responsible for the outbreak in January 1977, calling it Legionella pneumophilia.
Legionnaires' disease is a respiratory infection that generally spreads through inhalation of mist from contaminated water. It can be found in air conditioning cooling towers, hot water tanks, whirlpool spas, humidifiers, faucets, shower heads and moist soil.

The first recognized outbreak of Legionnaires' disease occurred on 27 July 1976 at the Bellevue Stratford Hotel in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (Edelstein 2008). Members of the American Legion, a US military veterans association, gathered there for the American Bicentennial celebration. Attendees began falling ill within 2 days of the event's start with as many as 221 people given medical treatment and 34 deaths. Research continued for months with various theories discussed in scientific and mass media. Hypothesized causes of the outbreak ranged from toxic chemicals to terrorism, be it domestic or foreign. The CDC mounted an unprecedented investigation and shifted the focus from outside causes, such as a disease carrier, to the hotel environment itself. The causative agent, a bacterium later named Legionella pneumophila, was identified and isolated in January 1977. The bacteria were found in biofilms in the cooling tower of the hotel's air conditioning system and from there spread throughout the building air droplets distributed via the air handing system

Dewey, in full Thomas Edmund Dewey (born March 24, 1902, Owosso, Mich., U.S.—died March 16, 1971, Bal Harbour, Fla.), vigorous American prosecuting attorney whose successful racket-busting career won him three terms as governor of New York (1943–55). A longtime Republican leader, he was his party’s presidential nominee in 1944 and 1948 but lost in both elections.
Dewey graduated from the University of Michigan in 1923 and received a law degree from Columbia University in 1925. Dewey was admitted to the New York bar in 1926 and launched his government career five years later as chief assistant to the U.S. attorney for the southern district of the state. Between 1935 and 1937 he garnered national attention as special prosecutor in an investigation of organized crime in New York; he obtained 72 convictions out of 73 prosecutions of long-established racketeers.
As Republican nominee for president in 1944, Dewey was neither expected nor able to overcome the enormous wartime prestige of the incumbent, Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt. The pollsters flatly predicted victory for his candidacy in 1948, however, though the political picture was confused by the entrance of two minority extremist factions—the Progressives and the States’ Rights (Dixiecrat) Party. Dewey waged a noncommittal campaign purposely designed to avoid offending any segment of the electorate but was unexpectedly defeated by Pres. Harry S. Truman

SECNAV INSTRUCTION 1650.1H
From: Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Manpower and Reserve Affairs)
Subj: NAVY AND MARINE CORPS AWARDS MANUAL
1. Purpose. To provide guidance and regulations concerning awards available for recognizing individuals and units in the Naval Service.
2. Navy Cross
a. Authorization. 10 U.S.C. S6242.
b. Eligibility Requirements
(1) Awarded to individuals who, while serving in any capacity with the Navy or Marine Corps, distinguish themselves by extraordinary heroism, not justifying the award of the Medal of Honor.
(a) While engaged in an action against an enemy of the United States;
(b) While engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing foreign force; or
(c) While serving with friendly foreign forces engaged in an armed conflict against an opposing armed force, in which the United States is not a belligerent party.
(2) To warrant this distinctive decoration, the act or execution of duty must be performed in the presence of great danger, or at great personal risk, and must be performed in such a manner as to set individuals apart from their shipmates or fellow Marines. An accumulation of minor acts of heroism normally does not justify the award. The high standards SECNAVINST 1650.1H demanded must be borne in mind when recommending the award.

TREBAL: The hyperdrive construct modifications are commencing, sir.
CAPTAIN: Make certain the equations are entered in the correct sequence. We don't want to overload the control conduit.
TREBAL: Yes, sir.
(The Captain turns around in his chair and sees John standing behind him, smiling at him.)
CAPTAIN (to the crewman): Is this him?
CREWMAN: Yes, sir.
CAPTAIN (to John): You wear the uniform of my crew but I don't know you.
SHEPPARD: My name's Lieutenant Colonel John Sheppard. We discovered your ship. We found you and your crew in the stasis pods; we decided to tap into the system in order to communicate with you.
(He smiles as if confident that this will explain everything. The Captain and Trebal, however, look at each other, bewildered.)
CAPTAIN (to John): “The system”?
SHEPPARD: This -- this, uh, virtual reality. (The Captain still looks confused.) You do know this is kind of simulated? (The Captain and Trebal again exchange glances. John looks round at the guards behind him. They too clearly aren't buying it.

KELLER: All your scans are clear. Blood tests are normal. As far as I can tell, you're in perfect health.
(John smiles smugly at Teyla.)
SHEPPARD: See? I told you. (To Jennifer) Thanks, Doc.

LATER. Jennifer and Sam Carter walk across the Gateroom and up into the Control Room en route to Sam's office.
KELLER: I probably shouldn't have bothered you with this. I know I don't really have any hard evidence.
CARTER: Believe me, I've seen a good hunch go a long way in some pretty crazy circumstances. I'd always rather you were on your toes, especially with anything that seems suspicious.
KELLER: I know a few bad dreams isn't that significant. It's only natural given what we face on a daily basis, but this was different. It really rattled me. Coupled with the sequential pattern: first Teyla, then me, then Ronon, all with Colonel Sheppard being a significant negative presence in our dreams.
CARTER: D'you have any idea what's behind it?
KELLER: I don't know. Thing is, it started right after Colonel Sheppard touched that crystal on M3X-387.
CARTER: I thought you cleared him medically.
KELLER: I did.
