Time after time
I forget some strict ideas;
lagoons and hills I visit
Begin to feel this sadness
of the bird without a nest,

Then, I ascend to the clouds
To take on other ways,
And walk on other paths,
Search for other beaches,
to drive me away from the known seas,
visiting other anxieties.
Other Islands, deserted from desire.

You do not imagine I invoke you
as the sole shelter, I have left in this shadow,
As if you were the only hope in the void
the last resort to my yearnings.

You do not even know who you are
nor you know your many faces.
At least, those that I invent;

It’s better this way
You will never know on which side
my moon will shine,
Or whether I am on the wane
You'll never know if I'm in summer
Or is autumn setting in my woods
You will not know who inspires my poems,
Because they have no name.

And I sense an almost childlike contentment
from this secret I keep,
In front the eyes of all,
of doubts I sow in my chest;
So as not to miss the steps,
and when you do read my verses

You will feel lost

These are things I know are happening, actually, these are things we all should know happen everyday, we see them on the news, discussed in congress, we hear from them directly from our military friends and relatives but in the end life continues, it is still better than most of the world's lives and it includes enough of that mix of stress and relax to push our thoughts away from almost everything, so, we forget.
When I read The Sultan Knish article of today -Incidentism- it was like listening to myself (if I could ever write and put together a quality article of course) and I think nothing was left out on this matter of Rules Of Engagement. No sincere person could in my opinion, disregard or deny this is the reality our troops and even our law enforcement agencies continuously face.

Once upon a time it was the objective of the military to win wars. Now the objective of the military is to avoid incidents. An incident happens when civilians are killed, prisoners mistreated or some other event that is photographed, videotaped and then flashed around the world. This results in an Incident, capital I, that triggers much artificial soul-searching by the media which spends the next two years beating...

In the end, all becomes class warfare, it is the same old idea that started taking form in the 1800's and defined itself in 1917. You can go "forward" with your revenge, it will give you exactly what it gave millions before you, some days of euphoria, at least half a century of dependency and struggle to survive while enjoying the freedom to be silent, the company of all the new poor and the promise of that better future you will never see.

Voting Isn't Revenge, It's Resistance

At the same time new election polls by REUTERS shows Obama getting ahead of Romney once again for likely voters, with the subsequent euphoria that such news arise for Obama camp, the agency reports the most damaging information for the incumbent. Emails obtained from government sources who declined to be identified erase all shadows of doubt. There is now no possibility the White House did not know about the nature of the Benghazi attack; even worse, they knew within two hours.

There are no arguments to erase evidence, there is instead, starting in the afternoon of 9/11/2012 a trail of incompetence, lies and deceit.

-The records obtained by Reuters consist of three emails dispatched by the State Department's Operations Center to multiple government offices, including addresses at the White House, Pentagon, intelligence community and FBI, on the afternoon of September 11. The first email, timed at 4:05 p.m. Washington time - or 10:05 p.m. Benghazi time, 20-30 minutes after the attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission allegedly began - carried the subject line "U.S. Diplomatic Mission in Benghazi Under Attack" and the notation "SBU", meaning "Sensitive But Unclassified."-

Obama's Greatest Foreign Policy Error - Comment-

2012-10-23T13:31:00.001-04:00

An insightful and very informative article looking deep into the root of the Islam problem the western nations face. Politicians tend to ignore or dismiss history time and again in favor of their own and so often naive views of the world, sometimes worsened by an egocentric consideration of their role in the big scheme of things; but history has a way of redeeming itself and in the process, big egos are eaten. This article is a must read.

There Was Nothing...

... and it was boring
Then nothing exploded.
And here we are.

The Universe is still expanding as those two mysterious forces (Dark Energy and Dark Matter) apply in opposition to each other, one holding galaxies together while the other accelerates and pushes everything away from everything else. Neither one is visible, but that could soon change thank you to...

The Highest Resolution Camera Ever Built

The highest-resolution camera ever built has begun its quest to pin down the mysterious stuff that makes up nearly three-quarters of our Universe.

"The Dark Energy Survey's 570-million-pixel camera will scan some 300 million galaxies in the coming five years.

The goal is to discover the nature of dark energy, which is theorised to be responsible for the ever-faster expansion of the Universe.

Its first image, taken 12 September, focussed on the Fornax galaxy cluster.

In time, along with its massive haul of individual galaxies, it will study 100,000 galaxy clusters - the largest stable structures we know of - and 4,000 supernovae, the bright dying throes of stars.

This enormous survey is a collaboration between US, UK, Brazilian, Spanish and German astronomers.

The phone box-sized Dark Energy Camera or DECam is mounted on the 4m Victor M Blanco telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile's Atacama desert.

DECam is particularly sensitive to red and infrared light, to better study cosmic objects as distant as eight billion light-years away".

POLITICAL GAIN

2011-01-11T16:06:00.000-05:00

                                                            Priority: POLITICAL GAIN

I lack the patience and I am also convinced there is no worse blind person than he, who does not want to see. So I'll take the shortcut. For those who are following the real "hate speech" going on in the media, using the Tucson tragedy as a crisis that shouldn't go to waste, here is a wake up call. Don't let yourself be brainwashed, used, transformed into what I am sure they consider the ideal population: Useful idiots.
A commenter at Big Journalism put it in writing while I was thinking it. (stole my thoughts) so I am borrowing the comment. All in the name of sanity.

" Every time there is a shooting, a mail bomb, a hostage incident, the usual Leftist suspects will chortle happily and think to themselves, "This time, it's GOTTA be a right-wing nutjob! I know it is! Oh, finally, (conservative celebrity) has gone too far!" And everytime, it's either a Leftist loon or a plain old crazy person perpetrating the violence.

There's something very, very wrong with the kind of person that gleefully receives news of tragedy in the expectation that his political enemy can be associated with it, especially when he has been repeatedly disappointed.
But, as we are well aware, for many reasons, Progressivism IS a mental disorder."

Traveling Amtrak

2010-12-14T02:05:00.001-05:00

AMTRAK
Train Traveling Is Nice

Lately too busy for even visit my usual reads while preparing the dreaded moving one more time, I will not wait more to write this post since I might forget or be called by a different subject. I recently used AMTRAK to travel back to Columbia, SC. from Miami, FL. Despite the cold temperature outside it was surely a nice trip, spoiled only by the fact the floor's heat was turned on. It drove everybody crazy to the point of loudly protesting and requesting the presence of the Engineer several times. Finally we won.

But this is not at all what motivates this post. It's the people. For some reason people traveling in the train communicates, becomes more human, interact with each other in a way I haven't noticed for a long time and certainly not in the big cities. Reserved by nature and not prom to start a conversation with my seat's neighbor, I engage immediately when they do. As of this trip I shared some rich cultural moments with a Haitian lady heading to Tampa to visit his son who currently attends college there. To my delight she was a current source of fresh information about the situation in her country - where she resides -. She speaks Four languages, Latin being one of them and it is a thoroughly educated person.

My next companion was a black man in route to visit her daughter in Orlando, being both girl's fathers we stroke a conversation around family and the never-ending worries we live day by day in that very particular role of upbringing daddy's girl. A group of people around caught my attention, one young white man, two middle-aged white men, two middle-aged black women and a 30 plus black man. All of them sharing, laughing, talking. Having met in this same train cart, they moved to and from the lounge cart, where they also shared drinks and food. All this time there was a huge absence, palpable, evident. Politics. Nobody mentioned race, nobody felt offended.

Was Amtrak a catalytic for this? Or is it simply that when politicians and specials interests are not meddling in our regular behavior, human nature takes the "natural" course and erase those barriers others keep bringing back? These are the questions I pondered during my 16 hours trip. I do not know the answers, but it seems to me Amtrak is up to some good here.

Taenia Saginata

The United Nations was created with the higher possible purpose, to become the means, the mediator, the deterrent for all human causes throughout the world. It was never the intention to make it a World's Government.
For many years now the UN has been dancing to the tunes the globalists play. It is always in favor of all those causes that try to make us all the same. Uniformed. While at the same time failing "historically" in doing the job of preserving the life of those which are the reason for its existence.
Bloody dictators have massacred their own people in the face of the UN assembly waiting for the death toll number to reach the genocide level to pronounce condemnation and perhaps a sanction.

It lives basically in our territory, it feeds mostly from us and it is plotting to destroy the freedoms that we enjoy. It is siding with all our enemies. It is a parasite.
I am a furious advocate of getting the UN out of the United States and the United States out of the UN. The sooner the better.
The 2nd Amendment of the constitution is constantly under siege. This is the ultimate and most vicious of all the attacks. The same old foxes are behind it, pushing with their money and unfortunately ours too. If they are ever successful, I will be an outlaw.

The "Euro Model"

Europe flirtation with socialism has been going on for a long time before the demise of the communist bloc, which might have slowed it down a bit. It didn't kill it. The forces that push that ancient cart are still present and healthy, and they are aiming for the extreme goal despite the setbacks. Global domination.

Some of us - each for a particular reason - are able to see it coming, in our eyes the customs don't work. It is evident. We need more people like Nigel Farage, In fact, I would like to trade him now for several of our congressmen and senators. I will gladly give a Pelosi a Frank and a Reid to bring Nigel Farage here a let him loose in Capitol Hill. - Watch the video and don't miss the faces at the end -.

Rules Of Engagement

Despite the many times it has been brought up by military commands and the heavy evidence provided in the most terrible way by the death of our soldiers; rules of engagement continue to be decided politically. It is decided in air conditioned offices by many that have never seen a battlefield. It is designed to please the eyes and silence the fast tongue of the always abundant critics of the United States. It has to stop.

Are We in Venezuela?

15 Missouri counties have more than 100% Voter registration.... fake absentee ballots are already showing up, (while I requested mine two weeks ago and it shows only mailed on the 27th and have not arrived yet). Soldiers in New York and Chicago will not be able to vote either. This is hardly the democratic process we believe in.

SEIU The Union for State Employees, (Government Employees) - In my humble opinion not even justified to exist since Unions were born to defend workers from their employer's abuses and others maladies while fighting for increasing "credible" benefits, and given the fact that the Government provide better salaries and benefits we in the private sector will never dare to compare. What is the purpose of the Union?- But I digress, this is a matter of a different discussion. SEIU, for their own purposes and interests (like all unions) is partial to the Democrat Party, partial in this case means it will provide funds for their candidates and a myriad of other activities related to "recruitment and convincing". It will parade and protest, so there is no doubt who they are rutting for. In the light of these known facts, wouldn't be a conflict of interest for them to be working with the voting machines? aren't they too close to the flame? Who pushed the idea of giving them the contract? It must have come from someone in the Republican Party. If fraud is ever blamed on the machines, by extension it will reach the Democrats.

I really have an itching curiosity about how this could have happened. A glitch? Software corrupted? Sabotage? but in any case, the technology is what I like to know about. Be it a failure or an intentional act, how did it happen? Are these the same machines used by Venezuela's Chavez a couple of elections ago?

....And for those who are still innocent about the methods and intentions, here is a little (not the only one) token.
As I said before, the ballots for the American Military registered to vote in Illinois were not important enough, but, as it turns out, if you are living ILLEGALLY in this country and want to go and vote, you can do so in Arizona, nobody can Legally ask you if you are a United States Citizen, much less require proof of it. Still doubt that those in power today feel entitled to remain there forever? No, I'm not saying they will perpetuate the current puppet there, they will do it with Vaseline, but as fast as they can. Wait and see.

A couple of days ago my dear friend Patricia posted about a very particular dream on her blog, and we talked about the weird fact that I never dream, to my knowledge I mean, because if I do, I never remember. But today it seems I am dreaming, more of a nightmare I will say. Today the Justice Dept granted a free pass to Illinois to violate Federal Law. If it were to provide assistance to someone in need, to cut red tape in an area where bureaucracy stands in front of development, or anything alike, this decision would be justified. But no. The free pass is to exonerate election's officials from their responsibility on violating military voting rights when mailing the ballots out of time. 29 Counties in Illinois are off the hook. Soldiers registered to vote in those counties probably will not be ever counted. Historically, soldiers vote mostly Conservative, and I repeat myself; I don't believe in coincidences. This is an awful nightmare, one where my other dream, the dream I dreamed awake is being destroyed. It hardly seems the place I dreamed to reach.
