*Fox News has been forced to take action surrounding threatening and racist comments on two separate web posts, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
One incident involved Fox News’ Fox Nation website, which on Friday was forced to close comments on a post about President Obama that referred to his 50th birthday as a “Hip-Hop BBQ.” The post spurred a slew of comments that the network deemed racist.
“We found many of the comments to be offensive and inappropriate, and they have been removed,” Fox News executive vp programming Bill Shine said.
Under the headline “Obama’s Hip-Hop BBQ Didn’t Create Jobs” were photos of the president and, separately, three black celebrities who attended the party, Charles Barkley, Chris Rock and Jay-Z.
Not pictured were any attendees of other racial backgrounds, like the actor Tom Hanks or Mayor Rahm Emanuel of Chicago.
The article, published Friday morning, generated more than 2,000 comments and substantial objections from people who found it to be inaccurate at best and racist at worst. Media Matters for America, a progressive group that campaigns against Fox, asserted that the article was part of a pattern of “race-baiting headlines and content” on the Web site.
No reporter or editor’s name was attached to the “hip-hop BBQ” article.
Also, Fox News was forced to pull a post from Facebook after a guest received multiple death threats from readers, Yahoo’s The Cutline blog reported.
The post centered on Blair Scott, communications director for American Atheists, who appeared on the network’s “America Live” to talk about his group’s lawsuit aiming to stop the use of a crucifix at the World Trade Center Memorial.
But the post received more than 200 comments that the network identified as threatening; they included multiple death threats aimed at Scott. As a result, Fox News later decided to delete the post.
“We make every attempt to keep our Facebook page as safe as possible,” Peter Drace, Fox News vp and creative director of promotion, told The Cutline. “And we take immediate steps to remove all hateful and dangerous language.”
Before the post was deleted, atheist blog One Man’s Blog posted several of the comments, which included:
— “These people are f’ing scum of the earth. can we start killing them now? few groups are filled with more hatred than atheists.”
— “I love Jesus, and the cross and if you dont, I hope someone rapes you”
— “Someone show me where they live&and they will live no mere [sic]!”
— “They’re atheists so it won’t matter if you kill them.”
— “KILL THEM.”

For the second series of JCK Original “KAGAYAKI” knives, we have closely worked with the master craftsman Mr. Gotou again. We wanted to create an original design, but maintain the excellent quality control and craftsmanship in order to satisfy professional chefs and discerning users.
Elegant and contemporary, the new KAGAYAKI VG-10 knives are very beautiful and have a graceful balance. They feature an attractive semi-mirror-polished solid VG-10 blade (HRc. 60- 61), a comfortable rounded handle that is made from dark purple-colored Staminawood, and a matching curved nickel silver bolster and rivets. Staminawood is a very durable and water-resistant composite material, which is produced by laminating multiple layers of wood with special resin ingredients and compressing them together.
VG-10 is high performance stainless cutlery steel that is famous for its combination of very good edge sharpness, edge retention, and high corrosion resistance.
The long, narrow, graceful blade of the Sujihiki is particularly useful for trimming away sinew and fat from meat, finely slicing meat or boneless fish, or for filleting and skinning fish. The long blade allows the meat or fish to be cut in one single drawing motion, from heel to tip.
Characteristics and Difference of Regular Version and ES Version
Both Regular Version and ES version are hand sharpened by skillful and experienced Master Craftsman.
Hereby we introduce the characteristics and difference of Regular Version and ES Version.
Regular Version has good enough sharpness and you can start using it without sharpening process and enjoy good cutting performance. One of the benefits for choosing the Regular Version is you can re-sharpen and make your own final sharp edge by yourself for your own cutting needs and preference. Advanced, Experienced and serious users can understand how important it is and this benefit.
ES version has much steeper and thinner edge which makes outstanding and maximized cutting performance. We have received many requests from our customers for the fully sharpened edge knives when they start using the knives. This is our recommendation for your needs.
Knife Model: JCK Original Kagayaki VG-10 Series Sujihiki
Blade Material: VG-10 Stainless Steel
Rockwell Hardness (HRc): 60 to 61
Blade Grind and Edge Shape: Double Bevel Edge 70/30
Handle Material: Dark purple-colored Staminawood Handle with Nickel Silver Bolster
Saya Included: No.
Sujihiki 240mm (9.4")
Cutting edge length: 240mm
Total Length: 365mm
Blade Thickness: 2.4mm
Blade Width: 37mm
Handle Length: 118mm
Total Weight: 191g
Sujihiki 270mm (10.6")
Cutting edge length: 270mm
Total Length: 395mm
Blade Thickness: 2.4mm
Blade Width: 37mm
Handle Length: 121mm
Total Weight: 205g
Master Craftsman modifies edge shape and bevel for left hand use by hand sharpening process at the following additional cost:
Petty + US$6
Santoku, Gyuto + $10
Honesuki, Sujihiki 20% extra of the regular price, because we need to change the grinding geometry from the beginning step for 100% left handed version.
Left handed versions are normally in stock for immediate shipping. However, when it became out of stock, please allow 3 to 6 days for shipping.
For your information, many of the Japanese Kitchen knives come originally with double bevel edge sharpened 70/30 (face side/back side) for Western style knives. This geometry came from Japanese Traditional knives with single bevel edge and Shinogi blade construction. This is one of the special features and reasons why Japanese knives have an excellent cutting performance.
However, this 70/30 edge geometry is designed for right hand use, so we have a service to modify it to 30/70 for left handed users with re-sharpening process by skilled craftsman.
We believe the quality and cutting performance of Japanese knives are the best in the world, and hope you enjoy fine craftsmanship and sharp edge with your new knife. With proper cares, every Japanese knife should be your special cooking partner for long times.
This is the Stainless steel blade kitchen knife that has a good rust resistance for easy maintenance. However, it may get rust, if kept in wet condition.
- Please do not put the knife in the dishwasher machine for cleaning.
- Please do not leave the knife in water or wet condition for long time.
- After using, please hand wash the blade, bolster and handle thoroughly, and wipe it clean and dry with soft clothes, and keep it in dry place.
- This is an extremely sharp knife. Please use special cares in using and storing it.
- Unlike German made knives, Japanese knife blades are ground to thin cutting edge for sharper cutting and easier re-sharpening. Please protect the edge from hitting hard materials to avoid chipping or cracking.
- Please do not use it to cut bone or frozen foods, any hard shell foods such as lobster and crab.
- We recommend using Japanese whetstones to re-sharpen the knife, when it gets dull.

This is Loki, relaxing as only a cat can:
Loki befriended Mrs Doombreed the other day and we took him in. He's housebroken and friendly, but he's almost depressingly thin so it seems obvious that someone has kicked him out.
Here he is awake, but still more relaxed than I could manage:
Here he is using Mrs Doombreed as an impromptu cat bed:

Benjamin Summit NP2 Air Rifle Features
- Nitro Piston 2 (gas piston)
- 15% faster than standard gas pistons
- Less cocking force and reduced vibration with patent pending technology
- Dual stage- clean break trigger
- Quiet (shrouded barrel with baffles)
- Sling Mounts included (rear post/front loop)
- Picatinny mounting rail
- Includes Center Point scope
Benefits of the Nitro Piston 2 over a metal mainspring
- Smoother cocking
- Smoother shooting
- No spring torque
- No spring fatigue- even if left cocked for hours
- Functions perfectly in cold weather
- Lasts longer than a metal spring
could hit a plastic lime bottle. Got out to fifty yards and could hit it four out of five times.
Then couldn't hit anything. Double checked my scope mounts and they had gotten loose. I
don't know what the torque value for the screws is but they should probably be checked after
every fifty shots. The next twenty shots I could just begin to feel some kind of obstruction in
the cocking mechanism. Something like a screw was coming loose and interfering with the
cocking stroke. It got progressively worse until I thought I might break something and quit. I
did not try to take anything apart and fix it. I just boxed it up, called customer service, got a
RMA number and sent it back.
Gun is very accurate once you get used to using the artillery hold. After 300 plus rounds of Crosman Premier Domed 10.5 grain pellets I have not had any scope issue. Nickel sized groups at 40 feet are my norm from a bench rest.
After shooting this rifle with a "standard" stock and the Trail NP2 with the "pistol grip" stock, I prefer the pistol grip for my hands. Nothing wrong with this stock.

Forget the stereotypes about samba, soccer, and the rainforest. Brazil is much more than that. The fifth-largest country in the world, with the fifth-largest population, this is the home to a people with as much ethnic diversity as love for their families, their communities, and the place where they live. Instituto Monte Castelo was born in 2017 to provide accurate, clear policy proposals and commentary. As an independent organization, we have never received, and never will, any financial support from any government or political party.
Our organization was named after the most important battle Brazilian troops took part in during Second World War. The heroic conquest of Monte Castelo, a strategic mountain in Italy that had been under Nazi control, reminds us the Brazilian people is capable of achieving great things in the fight for freedom.
We are convinced that the political and economic challenges faced by the Brazilian people cannot be properly solved without liberty. The high concentration of power at the federal level – that imposes a minimum wage, controls most major universities, manages a centralized healthcare system and is responsible for all penal laws – makes it urgent to bring autonomy back to the citizens, then to local and state level governments.
But the idea of personal responsibility is just as crucial. Political liberty requires informed political participation. A healthy democracy cannot survive without virtuous citizens. Often, in Brazil, this notion has been neglected, and transferring power to the federal government was seen as the first option to solve any major problem. This needs to change.
Most importantly: in a country where 80,000 people die every year because of crime and car accidents, and where there is growing pressure from foreign organizations to legalize abortion against the will of the people, protecting life should be a priority. There can be no liberty and responsibility without life. Brazil needs common-sense laws and policies that protect the life of its citizens.
That is why we have a clear mission: to fight relentlessly to revitalize liberty, protect life, and promote individual responsibility.
In its work, Monte Castelo explores a variety of issues – such as education, national defense, law enforcement, democratic culture, economic policy – and reaches out to lawmakers and policymakers in order to advance an agenda that promotes the values that make Brazil a freer, safer, and more prosperous country.
The Brazilian people deserves nothing less than that.

Hi everyone, am new to this but have been reading this site for a little while and thought I could do with some advice. My story started 5 years ago with an episode of numbness down the whole of the right side of my body, went to GP who sent me for a MRI of brain which showed a cavernoma which wasn’t causing any other problems so Neurolgist said leave alone. This was not the cause of the numbness and was a coincidental finding. Most of the numbness went after about 4 weeks but was left with numbness. tingling and sometimes pain in my arm and hand. In November 2008 had an MRI on my neck, the results were sent to me by post - ‘there is a area of increased signal intensity in the dorsal part of the cervical cord at the level of C3, this is consistent with a demyelinating plaque’. I wasn’t referred to anyone then and it wasn’t until I saw a hand specialist in 2010 who mentioned that I had a lesion in my neck. Have been having other strange things happening like burning on the bottom of my foot, pain in my big toe, burning pain in my back and leg stiffness and pain which has got worse in the last 6 months and I now have problems with walking very far. Anyway am living/working in Spain at the moment and my doctor referred me to the Neuro here who I saw on Friday she is going to do some tests (not sure what!) but she said - and this is why I am writing - that the lesion was only causing the problems with my hand and nothing else. Is this normal? Thanks for listening to me! Kim x
Please don’t feel like a fraud! You are very welcome
Well, how peculiar that they didn’t follow up the spinal lesion at the time! Still, at least you’re having things investigated now.
The location of spinal lesions can be used to pin down what symptoms they are likely to be causing. C3 is associated with the diaphram, so I don’t really understand the hands comment. Perhaps it was a translation issue?? Even if it wasn’t, new tests will hopefully provide more information, and some answers for you.
I’ll let someone know who’s in Spain that you’ve posted - perhaps she can help you with some local knowledge?!
Best of luck with it all. I hope you don’t have too long to wait.
Karen thank you for replying to my post, even though I have not been diagnosed with any neuro problem it made me feel better just being able to share my story.
Think there was some translation issues (took a friend with me who speaks Spanish) but she did say that the problem with my legs was definately not anything to do with the lesion so will have to talk to GP about that problem.
Would very much like to talk to someone else who is in Spain if you could let them know.
Perhaps she meant that it was probably a different lesion that was affecting your legs? That would make sense.
I have let my friend in Spain know - she said she’d get in touch.

Michael Cohen starts three days of congressional appearances in which he is expected to testify about Trump's Russia contacts, hush payments and other sensitive matters.
American defense operatives are telling the Russians that they have been identified and that their work is being tracked, The New York Times reported on Tuesday, citing individuals briefed on the matter.
The government and Big Tech need come together to thwart election meddling, the Senate Intelligence Committee chairman says ahead of social media hearings.
Powering the workshop is a simple mission, which its instructors preach like gospel: Bipartisan oversight is possible, effective and necessary.
The May meeting was the first significant discussion between a group of tech companies and intelligence officials ahead of the 2018 midterm elections.
The comment followed Nielsen's insistence that Trump has been "very clear that he agrees with the intel community" on Russian meddling.
"There is no doubt that Russia undertook an unprecedented effort to interfere with our 2016 elections," the committee's GOP chairman, Sen. Richard Burr, said in the statement Wednesday.
Leaders of the Senate intelligence committee are launching an effort to protect U.S. elections from a repeat episode of foreign interference.
Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., says the Committee will now work to complete and issue the final report.
Wray and Rosenstein were seen leaving Hart Senate Office Building from what appeared to be the Senate Intel Committee.
The Virginia Democrat sat down with CNBC's John Harwood to discuss Trump, Russia, the GOP tax bill and more.
President Donald Trump's eldest son asked a House committee to investigate possible leaks of information about his Dec. 6 interview with lawmakers.
Trump repeatedly urged senior Republicans over the summer to end a probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 election, the NYT reports.
Three congressional committees are scuffling over a former British spy's reports that are central to investigations into U.S. allegations that Russia tried to help Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.

Former FBI Director James Comey will tell Congress that President Donald Trump pressed him repeatedly to halt a probe into his ex-national security adviser's ties with Russia and to declare publicly that Trump himself was not under investigation.
The committee said it plans to schedule the hearing for after Memorial Day.
Senate Democrats pounced after a report that President Trump asked FBI Director Comey to halt his probe of Mike Flynn, NBC News reports.

Author reading: Lyn Coffin - The First Honeymoon
STOCKHOLM | Saturday 8th Oct at 10:00
Lyn Coffin is the award winning author of 30 books. Lyn will be reading stories from her short story collection “The First Honeymoon” which is being reissued by Iron Twine Press. The event is free and starts nice and early at 10:00 on Saturday 8th October.
”The edginess of Joyce Carol Oates; the ability, like John Updike, to extract human drama from the mundane, the suburban, the often-overlooked common experience; the twisting of form to the service of story, a la Alice Munro; the poeticism of Virginia Woolf; the quirk and off-beat humor of Richard Brautigan—all these elements come together in Lyn Coffin’s distinctive style.”
Lyn Coffin is an award-winning fiction writer, poet, playwright, and translator. More than 20 books of her writing have been published, and her plays have been presented internationally. Her short stories have appeared in magazines, journals and anthologies, including the Best American Short Stories. Her translation of the Georgian national epic The Knight in the Panther Skin (the first English translation to preserve the meter, the metaphor and poetic sensibilities of the 12th century original) is available from Poezia Press in Tbilisi. Lyn has taught classes in fiction writing, poetry and translation at leading institutions and universities all over the world. Lyn holds an honorary PhD from the World Academy of Arts and Culture (UNICEF) ”for poetic excellence and her efforts on behalf of world peace”.

And one very special historical photo I found was a 1937 photo of Victorias town's former mayor, Don Felix Montinola, taken during his birthday celebration at the Montinola's ancestral home in Victorias City, the house everyone calls 'balay-dako' (big house). He was surrounded by his wife Doña Dorothea Magalona Montinola, former Negros Occidental governor, Valeriano Gatuslao, and Don Jose Gaston, among other guests.
Aside from those black-and-whites, other mementos I stumbled upon were postcards, one of which became a blog that drove one reader to tears; she knew both the mother and the daughter. 😂
And recently, I came across one more black-and-white, which is from another era, a generation after Don Felix Montinola's. This one comes from the 'ba-ul' of Don Benito Montinola, Sr. (a son of Don Felix)'s family.
The photograph was taken at 'balay-dako' at the home of Don Benito Montinola (in floral shirt), the municipal mayor of Victorias from 1952 to 1959. The photo shows him and his wife, the late Doña Luisa Campos Montinola, attending to a very special lunch guest, Diosdado Macapagal.
This was during the campaign period in 1961 when he was still the vice president. Months after this, he won the election and on December 30, 1961, Diosdado Macapagal became the Ninth President of the Republic of the Philippines.
(From left, Doña Luisa, Don Benito, Diosdado Macapagal and Don Jose Gaston)
As in any special occasion, I see a lot of dishes on the table and I'm counting seven plates with dishes that look like crab relleno and meatballs; the others I couldn't figure out. If the photographer were a food blogger, he would have zeroed in on the dishes first, then to the guests. 😀 Although it would have been fun naming the dishes, I am more interested in the dessert. 😋
The late Don Benito Magalona Montinola, Sr. became the undersecretary of the Department of Natural Resources in the cabinet of President Macapagal and a delegate to the 1971 Philippine Constitutional Convention (one of six delegates representing the 1st District of Negros Occidental).
Lolo Nitong was also a good friend of another president, the late President Ramon Magsaysay, who died in a plane crash on March 17, 1957. That's why Lolo Nitong named one of his sons after the late president who was born a day after the crash.
Lola Luisa, on the other hand, was an educated lady who spoke many languages, including Spanish and Japanese. During the Japanese Occupation, when Japanese soldiers roamed around the Montinola family's haciendas in the Manapla area looking for guerillas and other able-bodied men, Lola Luisa was the one tasked to 'meet and greet' them, offering them water and 'botong-botong', the sweet candy made from sugar, as refreshments for the tired Japanese. This 'friendly' engagement was meant to prevent the Japanese officers and soldiers from being belligerent to the locals and, of course, to take their mind off from hunting down guerillas hiding in the sugarcane fields.
Aside from the late President Macapagal, the late Ferdinand Marcos and his wife, Imelda, were also welcomed in May 1978 by then Victorias mayor, the late Jesus Fermin, who was a grandson of Don Felix Montinola and a nephew of Don Benito Montinola.

So, do you know of any other Philippine president who came to Victorias for dinner?😄

Proposed changes to the open-source Chromium browser could break content-blocking extensions, breaking various ad blockers.
This all comes from Manifest v3, which is the specification for browser extension manifest files. These lay out exactly what resources and capabilities are made available for use by browser extensions in Chromium. Chromium is currently the core of the popular Google Chrome browser, and will soon be the basis for the reworked Microsoft Edge browser.
Google’s reasoning for the changes is improved security, privacy and performance. There’s no mention of Google’s primary business as a purveyor of advertisements, something hindered by third party ad blocking extensions.
The big part of the change is that Google intend to change the webRequest API with declarativeNetRequest. WebRequest allows ad blocking extensions to intercept network requests, letting them be blocked, modified or redirected. As the browser has to wait for the extension to finish before it can load up the page.
As a result, webRequest will only be able to read the network requests, and not modify them. Bad news for content blocking extensions as it will be the Chromium browser that decides how to deal with network requests rather than extensions.
You can track the proposed changes on the Chromium tracker here, but it’s worth noting the response from Raymond Hill, better known by his online alias Gorhill, the man behind uBlock, Origin and uMatrix, a trio of popular blockers.
“If this (quite limited) declarativeNetRequest API ends up being the only way content blockers can accomplish their duty, this essentially means that two content blockers I have maintained for years, uBlock Origin (“uBO”) and uMatrix, can no longer exist.”
There will still be basic ad filtering technology such as that attached to Chrome and third-party extension AdBlock Plus, but even though will be less useful then before due to a cap on the amount of network filters available, locking it down to 30,000.
However, AdBlock Plus has reached out to Trusted Reviews with its own statement, claiming they will also be impacted by the changes. “Adblock Plus is of course affected by this proposed change, because it would replace the main API that we (and almost all other content blockers) use to block requests with something a bit more watered down,” said a spokesperson for AdBlock Plus. “Even though we don’t know the exact plans for this proposed change, should it get implemented we’ll make sure ABP is available for Chrome users.”
This is still a proposed change and the backlash has been severe, so we may say a change in the way this is actually implemented, however the suggestion of a change has already got many gripping their pitchforks and ready to swear allegiance to a new browsers.
We’ve reached out to Google for comment.
Would you switch browsers if adblocking was, well, blocked? Let us know on Twitter at @TrustedReviews

The End of Westphalia? The Ancient Greek Leagues and a new format for international politics
Debate over the future direction of the EU often seems to be framed as falling into two binary camps, either calls for integration leading to the ultimate creation of a federal state loosely modelled along the lines of the American Republic, or predictions of the doom of nations and hubris which will lead to the EU’s collapse. The recent proposals of President Macron and the treaty of Aachen between the German and French Governments are the latest in a long line of policies which have been framed in this way.
These two ways of thinking are not only unhelpful in considering the future direction of our politics but are based on a premise which is proving to be increasingly false. Our way of thinking about politics on a domestic, national, regional and international level are couched within the terms of what can loosely be called the Westphalian model and the idea of the nation state. However, in a world of increasing interconnectivity where the function of supranational bodies and multilateral initiatives is increasingly important, the assumptions, norms and implications of this framework seem no longer relevant and, in many cases, even detrimental to the effective function of new ways of tackling political problems. With this in mind, it is worth exploring the current framework and considering what other options are available to us.
In 1648 a series of Treaties were signed in the Westphalian cities of Osnabrück and Mϋnster. What would later be known as the Peace of Westphalia ended thirty years of war which had engulfed Europe, leading to the death of approximately 8 million people and ravaging the continent. The Thirty Years War began as a religious conflict within the Holy Roman Empire but had spiralled into a broader geopolitical war, drawing in almost all the great European powers of the day. The conclusion of the war, and the post war settlement, set the stage for the development of European politics for the next 300 years.
The Peace is important not in so much as it ended the Thirty Years War, but in the precedents it established. Firstly, the practice of holding a Congress or Conference in which all participants in a conflict met to negotiate and settle that conflict through talks. Secondly, and most importantly for our purposes, the Peace established a new political order in Europe, based on the peaceful coexistence of Sovereign States, with aggression amongst one another held in check by a balance of power and a commitment to not interfere in the internal affairs of other Sovereign states.
These principles laid the groundwork for what would come to be known as the Westphalian system and were a significant development along the road to the concept of the nation state and the political assumptions in domestic and international affairs which were to become the norm. The spread of European influence around the globe would see this system become the basis for the international law and politics which underpin the global system that has emerged in the centuries since.
However, as the shape of the geopolitical and domestic spheres have changed and evolved since the end of the Second World War, these assumptions are beginning to be challenged. Many of the international political crises and the rise of populist parties, especially in the West, can be attributed in someway to the assumptions and norms of this system being challenged by the new realities that changes, such as new technology, have brought to our politics. As such it is sensible to explore the development of this system and search for possible alternative models which may prove more effective.
The Europe which the Peace of Westphalia emerged from looked very different from our own, international politics of the day was dominated by large, multinational Kingdoms ruled over by absolute monarchs and multi-ethnic Empires headed by divinely blessed Emperors, all loomed over by the remains of the religious institutions of the medieval church. Other smaller states, more like our own republics and constitutional monarchies, did exist, but as political players on the international stage they were virtual nonentities.
The period between the treaties signed in 1648 and the end of the Second World War would see a remarkable shift in the way Europeans practiced and thought about domestic, national and international politics.
While the peace was being established in Europe, the civil wars in the British and Irish Kingdoms of the 1640's and the Glorious Revolution which followed in 1688, would see the rise of a constitutional monarchy. The new ways of thinking and newly established norms which would manifest themselves in the Peace of Westphalia made this an easier task, although not without its fair share of trouble. The rise of the Dutch Republic in the years immediately before and after the Peace was also a symptom of these new ideas beginning to coalesce.
Despite a revival of the idea of absolute universal monarchy personified by Louis XIV and his immediate successors, the general trend of thinking in the 18th century was toward these more constitutional, representative states, increasingly based on small ethnic and linguistic groups as opposed to the vast multi-ethnic kingdoms of before. Although this would be done with much strife and suffering of the smaller groups unable to break free of larger, controlling neighbours.
The many wars of the 18th century in Europe saw a further embedding of the ideas established at Westphalia in the European political psyche. Towards the end of the century, the American revolution was an important step in this development as it saw these ideas, and their implementation, shift beyond the realm of Europe. It also demonstrated that it was difficult, with the technology of the time, to implement a more representative nation state system spread over seas and vast distances, necessitating small, more compact and homogeneous states.
The French Revolution is arguably the high point of this first phase of development since the Peace of Westphalia. The revolutionaries would overthrow the heart of absolute universal monarchy, trampling down the chief rival to the ideas first put to paper in the Peace of Westphalia, a point of no return.
France would no longer seek to expand and absorb European states into its growing Empire, presided over by a divinely blessed monarch. Instead it would export the ideals of the revolution, overrunning the ancient regimes of Europe’s Kings, Emperors and Popes and setting up nation state style republics based on its own model. The ideas of the Sovereign Nation State which first found voice in Westphalia were firmly embedded in the European psyche by the bayonets of the French revolutionary armies.
Even when Napoleon picked the French Crown out of the gutter in 1804, the ideas did not die and he continued to spread these ideals, even if they now adopted the trappings of Kings and Emperors. The end of this first phase is perhaps most aptly marked by the Emperor Francis II’s decision to dissolve the Holy Roman Empire in 1806.
After the destruction of his armies and his capitulation to Napoleon after the battle of Austerlitz in 1805 and the reformation of many of the German territories into the Confederation of the Rhine, Francis, the Holy Roman Emperor, was forced to accept the realty of the situation and the evidence that the ideas first born in Westphalia had come of age. The thousand-year-old institution, forged by Charlemagne taking a rib out of the Roman corpse to create a new backbone for Europe, was gone. A new order would take its place.
Despite Napoleon’s eventual defeat, his enemies had long accepted the ideas the French Republic and Empire had breathed life into. Napoleon’s Empire was divided up by the victorious allies at the Congress of Vienna, a diplomatic meeting like that of Westphalia.
A second phase of development now started. The principles of Westphalia were well established and underpinning the new political order in Europe. The British, American and French Revolutions embedding in the consciousness the idea of representative government based on the more or less homogeneous nation state. Europeans set about creating homogeneous groups under which they could coalesce into nation states.
Over the next century, several rounds of revolution, war and diplomacy would see a Europe which was still dominated by large Kingdoms and Empires, although much changed, at the Congress of Vienna in 1815, slowly come to be a continent of nation states of various sizes and forms.
By the dawn of the 20th century this process was beginning its final advance. A few large powers still dominated the continent, but they were almost unrecognisable to those from a century before and in their midst were smaller powers able to demand to be treated fairly under the terms of the Westphalian system. Indeed, it is telling that the reason the British advanced for their entry into the First World War was the violation of Belgian neutrality, in other words interference in Belgium’s internal affairs. Although the decision was more about geopolitical fears of a German dominated continent, it is telling that the British felt the need to dress the decision in these terms.
The third and final phase of this process overlaps with the second. Agitation of groups still held under the rule of the old Empires and Monarchies, particularly in the East of the continent, grew stronger every day as the principles of the system of nation states became ever more firmly embedded in the European psyche. A series of wars in the Balkans at the start of the century spurred by the idea of the nation state, would eventually see the Austro-Hungarian Empire dragged in, coming under increasing pressure to allow the people it ruled entry into the system, a pressure which would result in the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and bring with it the First World War.
It would be another great Congress that would end this war. Various treaties would see the break up of the central European Empires and the formation of yet more nation states at the heart of the continent.
However, the period leading up to the conflict and the conflict itself had exposed the limits of the Westphalian system. What happens when the balance of power breaks down as nation states scramble for more resources? The temptation or demand to violate the other core tenants of the system had proved too much.
A first solution to this was attempted with the creation of the League of Nations, but this organisation proved not to have the teeth to deal with the demands of the most powerful nation states, leading once again to a bloody and drawn out war. Although the peace that ended the Second World War saw the creation of the United Nations as a beefed-up version of the League of Nations, these organisations were both imagined and designed with the principles of Westphalia at their core and as such were unable to affect any real decision making. What really underpinned the relative peace of the new age was the power of the two superpowers which emerged from the ashes.
It is ironic then that as the Westphalian system entered its third and final phase and began what could be seen as a decline, the rest of the world was finally allowed entry to what had been almost exclusively a European club. Thus, the culmination of the second phase coincided with the begin of the third phase, a precipitous decline.
The European Empire’s had spread with them European ideas and as these Empires began to collapse, Europeans attempted to leave behind them what they saw as the perfect solution to maintain peace and security and the continued participation of former territories in the world system they had created, The nation state. The collapse of these European Empires also saw the final rise of the idea of the nation state in Europe itself. The Treaty of Rome in 1957, founding what would later become the EU, is often projected as the image of a family of nation states working together having turned their back on war, the reality is that the collapse of empire allowed the idea to finally take hold unopposed.
As the world has emerged from the shadow of the Cold War, it is becoming increasingly clear that the old assumptions of the Westphalian system and the idea of the nation state no longer hold. Multinational cooperation, participation and even integration have become the order of the day as states look to build economic blocks and political groupings to allow them to compete on the world stage. With the decline of the Bi-polar world of the Cold War and the slow dissolution of the Uni-polar world that followed, this trend looks set to continue.
Europe, the heart of the old Westphalian system, has been the first mover in creating a new system of world power. The Treaty of Rome in 1957 was the first step on this journey, and the subsequent Treaty of Maastricht in 1992, created a truly new way of conducting domestic, national and international affairs. It is no mistake that Maastricht was signed so soon after the end of the Cold war and the collapse of Soviet power. The idea of a Europe composed of sovereign nation states would look to collective action on a regional level to achieve what the League of Nations and the UN had failed to on a global scale. Although coached in the terms of the idea of the nation state, this represents a new way of conducting and thinking about politics, even if it is still in its infancy with many issues to iron out.
Accepting that a new world system is developing, a new set of domestic, national and international assumptions and norms will need to be developed in order to ensure the system operates in the way it is intended. Although the last 350 years have left us with the impression that the Westphalian model is how states have always behaved, this is not the case and history offers plenty of examples to see different models in operation.
The Kingdoms and Empires of the Medieval and Classical world do offer an alternative system in which to anchor our politics, but an example which seems most apt for our purposes are the Leagues and alliances founded by the Greek city-states before the rise of Rome.
Although we are more familiar with the independent city states of Classical Greece, the League system which developed after this period offers some interesting insights and parallels to our own day.
In the Classical period, these systems started out as alliance structures which would allow a hegemonic power to dominate the smaller states without the need to conquer and control them militarily, an Empire by other means. The best example of this is the Delian League, founded, dominated and controlled by Athens from 478 BC until its destruction in 404 BC at the culmination of the Peloponnesian war. Although the Spartan led Peloponnesian League was less overtly an imperial project on behalf of the Spartans, it was more or less a way of enhancing and projecting Spartan power and so followed the same pattern.
However, with the rise of the city of Thebes, which dominated the Greek cities from 371 BC until about 362 BC, the nature of these organisations began to change. Although Thebes was the largest and most dominant city of the region of Boeotia in central Greece, the Boeotian League developed a unique federal structure which allowed the other cities more of a voice than what was offered to Athens or Sparta’s allies.
The League comprised of eleven groups of sovereign cities, each of which elected a “Boeotarch”, essentially a Minister for war and foreign affairs, and sent sixty delegates to the federal council situated at Thebes. Each member then provided contingents of soldiers for the League army. Any decision taken by the federal council had to be ratified at a local level.
Although the League was dominated by Thebes, which at one point was providing four of the Boeotarchs, an important precedent was set. The Boeotian League would not be merely a tool for the projection of Theban power, but would also allow a say and chance to reject and change decisions to all members of the League. Essentially, the foreign policy of the League was controlled centrally, whilst the internal affairs of individual members were left untouched and, with the federal council, the chance to cooperate across the region in a peaceful and productive manner also existed. Member states also had the opportunity to block decisions through the ratification process.
Although short lived, the Theban supremacy of the 4th century BC would allow this system to spread to other regions of the Greek World, most notably to the Peloponnese. Following their invasion of Spartan territory in support of the Arcadians in 370 BC, Epaminondas and Pelopidas, the two most prominent Boeotarchs of the time and the architects of Thebes’s supremacy, founded a new city named Megalopolis. This new city was to be the capital of a new Arcadian League, based on the Boeotian model, established as a counter weight to the power of Sparta in the Peloponnese.
Although the success of the new League would be short lived, and the power of Thebes and the Boeotian League would not survive the rise of Macedon, the ideas of how to organise internal, regional and international affairs began to stick.
Perhaps the best example of this change in approach comes from the Aetolian League. Aetolia had been unimportant and seen as a backward, almost barbaric, region for most of the Classical period but, beginning with the Athenian invasion of the region during the Peloponnesian War, the Aetolians quickly began to organise on a regional political level.
It is unclear exactly when the Aetolian League was founded, some suggesting it was by Epaminondas himself in 367 BC, but it could have been much later, during the rise of Macedon. However, what is clear is that the League was founded along federal lines and appears to have taken some inspiration from the ideas which underpinned the Boeotian and Arcadian Leagues. Over the next century the League would grow to encompass a large part of Central Greece, taking ownership of Delphi, fighting off several invasions and participating in resistance to Macedonian hegemony over Greece.
The League was eventually undone when it initially sided with Rome to resist the Macedonians and then turned on their erstwhile allies to resist growing Roman power. The defeat of the League’s ally, Antiochus III, the Seleucid King, in 189 BC by Rome, concluding the Roman-Syrian war, saw the Aetolians forced to sign a treaty making them a vassal state of Rome and all but eliminating them as an independent political power.
Like its predecessors, the League had a federal administrative structure whose primary role was to conduct foreign policy on a common basis. The league also achieved a level of economic standardisation across the region, with a common currency and tax rates as well as standardisation of weights and measures.
The central authority of the League was held by an assembly, a council and a number of magistrates drawn from all League members, but its power was limited due to the members only meeting twice a year. Further to this, it appears that members of the League had a high degree of autonomy within the structure, in extreme examples the League even seems to have proved unwilling or unable to prevent members from engaging in military action with states that the League had a formal treaty with.
Although not completely analogous with our own time, these ancient Greek Leagues do allow us to glimpse a different way of thinking about, organising and conducting our politics. In a world in which the assumptions of the Westphalian system seem to increasingly hold little water and the nation state an increasingly elusive and unworkable concept, if it ever was one, it is worth thinking about these other systems.
This type of structure was clearly flexible and able to cope with the demands and strains of an age in which the concepts of sovereignty, freedom from external interference and a balance of power did not exist. Further to this, the long-term success of the League, not only staving off invasion and growing its territory, but in the economic standardisation and reform, allowed the region to grow and flourish, the archaeology shows that the settlements of Aetolia grew significantly in the period of the League’s dominance.
In a world where sovereignty and freedom from interference in internal affairs could not be guaranteed, but people still wished to be most closely associated with the political organisation they felt most connected to, namely the city state, the loose federalism offered by these Leagues allowed people and states to exist, co-operate and maintain their freedom and independence, whilst also offering a sound economic footing and the ability to engage with the world at an international level in a meaningful way.
The Westphalian system only works if all participants are honest brokers abiding by its rules, as soon as one power looks to exploit the system, its limits and inability to enforce itself is exposed. In a world increasingly populated by revisionist powers looking to exploit the international system for their own gain, a rethinking of the way in which we engage politically, on a local, national, regional and international basis becomes an imperative rather than an option. The most obvious and glaring examples of these violations come in the form of cyber-attacks and interference in election processes, but they are just the tip of a very large iceberg.
Europe has begun the process of reconsidering the assumptions of the way we conduct politics, but in recent years its challengers have gained a lot of momentum in their campaign to halt it in its tracks. This is a difficulty but also a measure of its success thus far. However, it is a clear warning for the future tests the new system still has to overcome and a rethinking of how we conceive of politics may provide a way to move forward.

Reynolds center Drew Eubanks is drawing interest from OSU for basketball and baseball.
(Danny Moran/The Oregonian)
CORVALLIS -- Oregon State lost its resident Bo Jackson in April when Hunter Jarmon quit baseball to focus on football. Next year, though, the Beavers may boast a resident Danny Ainge.
Wayne Tinkle's staff is heavily recruiting 6-foot-10 center Drew Eubanks, a two-sport star at Troutdale's Reynolds High School. Eubanks told The Oregonian earlier this week that he is talking with the Beavers "once every couple of days." Last Friday, he visited campus for the second time in five weeks and landed a scholarship offer.
At this point, Eubanks is considering Portland, Gonzaga and OSU. He owns an offer from Washington State as well, but has dropped the Cougars from his list.
Eubanks has drawn more interest in recent weeks. A host of schools reached out after the incoming senior's strong showing at the Bigfoot Tournament in Las Vegas last month, though Eubanks recently told BeaverBlitz.com, "It's not like they haven't seen me before so I must not have been that important to them."
Eubanks was late to basketball. More interested in baseball growing up, he didn't pick up the second sport until his freshman year at Reynolds. These days, he is one of the state's top prospects in both. He was a second-team all-state baseball selection in June.
While in Corvallis last week, Eubanks visited Beavers baseball coach Pat Casey. If Eubanks signs with the basketball team, he will try to play both sports.
"I like their facilities," Eubanks said. "The campus is really nice, and being able to play baseball there is big."
A Eubanks signing would represent a key victory for Tinkle's staff. The new regime is eager to make in-state talent a priority, and landing Eubanks would only help OSU sign more top local recruits.
OK, on to the links:

The Plano Star Courier published a piece Wednesday on Beavers recruit Beau Hott.
USA Today wrote that linebacker is a strong point for OSU.

No none asked to seller yet


Last month, sources close to the popular online payment processor PayPal revealed that the money transfer behemoth has set its sights on the cryptocurrency industry.
According to a recent report by Coindesk, PayPal will soon allow its estimated 325 million users to buy and sell a variety of cryptocurrencies directly on the platform, and will source liquidity from a variety of exchange platforms to help keep slippage to a minimum.
If this plan comes to fruition, PayPal will become the largest traditional finance company to expand directly into the cryptocurrency space, marking a significant step towards bridging the gap between the traditional and digital economies. It will also shake up the cryptocurrency industry as we know it in several important ways.
Getting Cryptocurrency Will be Easier Than Ever
As it stands, anybody looking to get their hands on cryptocurrencies for the first time will usually need to purchase it from one of the myriad cryptocurrency brokerages out there.
These platforms typically allow customers to purchase digital assets with their debit or credit card, while adding a fee or markup onto the spot price as their main revenue model. Although simple, these platforms rarely accept alternative payment methods like PayPal, Google Pay, and Skrill. But if they do, they usually enforce stricter maximum purchase limits and often charge an additional fee.
With the addition to cryptocurrency purchases directly to PayPal, it will likely become even easier for retail investors and enthusiasts to get their hands on cryptocurrencies.
Millions will be Exposed to the Industry
Depending on how PayPal moves ahead with this implementation, it may also become one of the cheaper ways to purchase cryptocurrencies, since unlike most cryptocurrency brokers, PayPal doesn’t need to pay a third-party payment processor to accept credit card and debit card payments.
In turn, this could lead to savings for investors, since PayPal will likely pass on these savings to the consumer to allow it to undercut already established players in the cryptocurrency brokerage space.
This is particularly promising when you also consider that PayPal essentially offers an escrow service with its buyer and seller protection programme. By providing both payment processing and escrow services, it may not be long before PayPal launches a service that can compete with peer-to-peer cryptocurrency marketplaces like Local Bitcoins and Paxful — both of which are known to be particularly expensive and potentially risky for PayPal buyers and sellers.
This greatly reduced barrier to entry could see the demand for cryptocurrencies surge following the launch of PayPal’s cryptocurrency direct-sales feature. As with all things, any significant changes in the demand of cryptocurrencies can negatively affect the available supply, potentially driving up the value of digital assets as a side effect.
Entry-Level Platforms Will See a Surge in Interest
Like many major announcements in the cryptocurrency industry, there is a reasonable chance that PayPal’s foray into the cryptocurrency wallet and brokerage space will positively affect the price action of cryptocurrency supported by the platform — and potentially the cryptocurrency market as a whole.
As a result, popular entry-level platforms that already accept PayPal as a payment method will probably be the first to see a surge in interest.
Among these, NewsCrypto stands out as one of the likely candidates for increased interest, since it provides a beginner friendly platform filled with trading tips, tools, and educational resources.
The platform acts as the first port of call for the thousands of cryptocurrency investors that want to either learn how to profitably trade cryptocurrencies, or brush up on their trading knowledge. It also recently announced the addition of PayPal as a payment option for its NewsCrypto Coin (NWC) utility token, which is used to purchase premium membership on the platform.
Beyond this, the popular cryptocurrency on-ramp Coinbase will likely see another dramatic surge in usage once PayPal begins handling cryptocurrency transactions. Coinbase remains one of the few cryptocurrency brokers to accept PayPal as a payment method, and has a long history of being the first major platform to offer PayPal withdrawals in many jurisdictions.
It remains to be seen how PayPal’s largest competitors in the crypto space — including Cash App, Square and BitPay will respond to the advent of such heavy competition.

New Strategies for Improving Rural Family Life.
Coombs, Philip H.
Presented in capsule form for the convenience of busy policy makers, planners, and program managers, this booklet summarizes major findings of a three-year study on practical aspects of rural development, with particular emphasis on ways of alleviating extreme poverty among disadvantaged rural families. Using case studies from Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, South Korea, Sri Lanka, and Thailand as a basis, the report contains sections on the new international consensus, the genesis of the new consensus, getting to know the rural poor, toward better integration, toward greater community participation, the importance of front-line workers, educating villagers for change, new roles for voluntary organizations, some practical next steps, and an epilogue. Stressing that the first "must" for anyone desiring to help the rural poor is to get to know them before deciding on what specific program approach to adopt to meet their needs, the document further suggests that another important requirement is to focus on the whole family. Noting that the family improvement measures in the study (health, nutrition, family planning, etc.) do not in themselves comprise a total rural development strategy, the report emphasizes that these essentials must be part of a broader strategy that also includes strong measures for accelerating rural economic growth.

Hundreds of people packed into a job fair Friday hosted by Amazon and the city of Gary.
Russell Daniels, of Gary, said he lost his job recently at a Portage warehouse and hoped to get hired in the warehouse at Gary’s Amazon new delivery station at 15th Avenue and Texas Street, near Interstate 65. The site previously housed a TradeWinds Services plant.
Daniels signed in and waited about 30 minutes for his name to be called. He moved to a room at the city-owned ArtHouse where other job seekers underwent background and drug checks and gained information about the hiring process by watching a video.
Two Amazon recruiters mingled with job hopefuls answering their questions and explaining the process.
In the first 90 minutes of the job fair, about 200 people put in applications, said Diana Patterson Sandlin, workforce development consultant and Gary 4 Jobs director. She said by noon, Amazon had made 10 job offers.
Besides Amazon, the transportation and logistics fair included Schneider Trucking, Driveco CDL Learning Center and 160 Driving Academy.
Amazon has hired about 500 workers since its Gary delivery station opened late last year, officials said. Workers at the Gary site handle sorting and delivery of packages to customers from the Gary location.
Mayor Karen Freeman-Wilson said the partnership with Amazon is a good fit for the city as it positions itself to attract more warehouse, transportation sites and other logistics operations.
Jonathan Reedy, of Lansing, Ill., said he already has a job, but was interested in working for Amazon. “I’m pretty hopeful,” he said.
Eric Williams, of Gary, said he drives a truck in Chicago. “The Amazon location is closer to me,” he said.

State Auditor Announces Senate Run, Says Jon Tester has done ‘a Miserable Job’ for Veterans
Montana State Auditor Matt Rosendale announced today, July 31, that he will be running for Jon Tester’s U.S. Senate seat in 2018. When speaking about the U.S. Senate, Rosendale was quick to discuss Tester, saying that the current Senator has done a “miserable job” on the Veteran’s Affairs committee.
"We look at the veteran's Administration and the position that Jon was in to help us do something good about that, I think most of the people around our state find it unacceptable. We have facilities that are built and structures that are standing, but yet we don't direct the funds to make sure that we have physicians there to take care of our veterans."
Rosendale says his role as the state’s Insurance Commissioner has given him more insight into the costs of the current health insurance system. Rosendale says he wants to see a full repeal of the Affordable Care Act, and, once again, laid the system’s current problems at the feet of Jon Tester.
"He spent the last 60 days complaining about the inability of the Republican Party to do anything about healthcare, but yet he ignores the fact that he was the deciding vote to pass Obamacare and force it upon the people of our state," Rosendale said. "It's like the arsonist complaining that the fire department isn't doing an adequate job."
Rosendale says he should be an easy pick in the primary because of his history as a rancher, a businessman, a legislator, and state auditor. At least three others have announced they will run on the Republican ticket, but Rosendale has the highest office of any candidates running so far.
