Two days after the election that returned President Barack Obama to the White House for a second term, one of America’s best-known former diplomats offered his take on the world — and the audience found his observations just as relevant as they were three decades ago.
Zbigniew Brzezinski, national security advisor under President Jimmy Carter from 1977 to 1981, didn’t mince words when it came to Obama. “He has to undo the excessive reliance on speeches as he acts on the world scene — that is to say, the apparent assumption that a powerful speech on this or that subject is the same as effecting change,” Brzezinski said. “The speeches all promised a great deal, but a great deal did not transpire. There was some marginal progress here and there, but by and large, his speeches remain speeches.”
The Polish-American diplomat, 84, gave his own speech Nov. 8 at the Aspen Institute’s Ambassadors’ Security Roundtable luncheon at the Four Seasons hotel; moderating the discussion was CNN’s Washington-based foreign affairs correspondent Jill Dougherty. In attendance were some 75 guests, including ambassadors representing a range of countries from Afghanistan to Zambia, as well as lobbyists, consultants and various State Department officials.
The event was part of the recent launch of the Ambassadors’ Security Roundtable, a quarterly convening of ambassadors from around the world to promote greater international cooperation in the critical realm of security. The luncheon followed an off-the-record gathering of European envoys at the Aspen Institute’s Wye River campus on Maryland’s Eastern Shore in October.
Brzezinski, whom Dougherty introduced as a “living legend,” said that in 2008, “at a lunch of this sort,” he spoke of how impressed he was with the president-elect’s “knowledge and understanding of the basic dynamics of this era.”
Four years later, Brzezinski argued that Obama must reassert his credibility on the world stage through serious commitment and decisive action that will shape both his legacy and the country’s trajectory.
“The management of our foreign policy and the protection of our national security are interwoven, and the president has no peer,” Brzezinski said. “Congress is not a partner in the shaping of foreign policy. That is the special domain of the president, and he has to regain that territory.”
It’s territory Brzezinski has traversed for decades. During his time as Carter’s national security advisor, Brzezinski oversaw the normalization of U.S. relations with China, the overthrow of the Shah in Iran, the rise of mujahideen fighters in Afghanistan, the growth of dissent in Soviet-influenced Eastern Europe, the signing of a treaty to relinquish U.S. control over the Panama Canal, and the brokering of the Camp David peace accords between Egypt and Israel.
The chairman of countless commissions, task forces and councils, Brzezinski has been in the foreign policy trenches since the 1960s. The elder statesman remains active today, teaching at universities such as Harvard, Columbia and Johns Hopkins and writing numerous widely regarded books, including his most recent: “Strategic Vision: America and the Crisis of Global Power.”
In the 2012 book, Brzezinski argues that U.S. policymakers need to rethink the country’s place in an interdependent world where America is no longer the sole superpower — adapting to shifting geopolitics while reasserting American influence in order to preserve global stability.
“Indeed, the ongoing changes in the distribution of global power and mounting global strife make it all the more imperative that America not retreat into an ignorant garrison-state mentality or wallow in self-righteous cultural hedonism. Such an America could cause the geopolitical prospects of an evolving world — in which the center of gravity is shifting from West to East — to become increasingly grave,” he writes. “The world needs an America that is economically vital, socially appealing, responsibly powerful, strategically deliberate, internationally respected, and historically enlightened in its global engagement with the new East.”
These were all themes Brzezinski expanded on at the Aspen Institute luncheon, where, among other things, he advised Obama “to make a special effort to put the American-Chinese relationship on an even keel. Election rhetoric contributed to rising tensions with China. We have to be very careful how we define our role in the Far East — and it isn’t sufficient to define it in military terms. He also has to reaffirm support for Europe at a time when it’s in crisis. We need a new Atlantic Charter, which in the darkest days of World War II was a vision of the future for Europe and America. We need something like this again.”
Brzezinski, who was born in Warsaw in 1928, witnessed the rise of Nazism as a child during the four years his father, a diplomat, served in Germany. Tadeusz Brzezinski was then posted to the Soviet Union for two years during Joseph Stalin’s Great Purge. In 1938 — the year before Hitler invaded Poland — the elder Brzezinski was transferred to Canada, and after the 1945 Yalta Conference allotted Poland to the postwar Soviet sphere of influence, the family decided not to return. The Cold War deeply affected the young man, who grew up determined to help Eastern Europe counter Soviet domination and eventually came to support détente and peaceful engagement with Moscow.
“If we have a strong relationship with Europe, we can also improve our relationship with the Russians,” Brzezinski said. “If we don’t, our relationship with Russia will become more difficult, and Russia may become more assertive in places like Georgia and Azerbaijan.”
Yet the world is a very different place today than it was four years ago when Obama first moved into the White House. The biggest difference is not so much Russia or Europe but the Arab Spring, which has seen the fall of dictatorships in Egypt, Yemen, Tunisia, Libya and now quite possibly Syria.
However, according to Brzezinski, what’s happening in the Arab world cannot exactly be compared to the overthrow of communism in Eastern Europe and, later, the collapse of the Soviet Union itself — despite what he called the “oversimplification” of recent events by the mass media.
“Populism can lead to democracy, but is not in itself a democratic phenomenon. It takes time for populism to become permeated by democratic principles and the ability of compromise. Central Europe had that in the 1990s because there was a history, so over time it acquired democratic attributes,” he explained.
“In the Middle East, it’s a much more emotional reaction against deprivation, corruption visible at the top, unfair wealth and the impact of mass communications. It’s a phenomenon of political outrage, which can go in religious, extremist directions, or it’s a gradual process. It’s really much more complicated than just a democratic uprising.”
In fact, it’s the Middle East that now presents Obama’s biggest foreign policy headache, as once-reliable U.S. allies like Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak are replaced by democratically elected governments whose leaders don’t look as kindly on the United States — especially in light of Washington’s unwavering support for Israel.
One way to regain America’s waning influence in the region, Brzezinski suggested, is to stand up to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, both on the issue of Jewish settlements in the West Bank and on Iran’s nuclear program.
“If you look at public opinion polls in Israel and the U.S., and to some extent among Palestinians, the predominant position is still to seek a peaceful solution — but a Palestinian state has to be based on compromise,” he said.
“Netanyahu is pursuing the expansion of settlements in the West Bank and Jerusalem. We are mouthing repeatedly our phrase that this is not consistent with Israel’s legal obligations. If we’re serious, we have to make it very clear that either both [sides] desist, or they both go ahead. We can’t be more interested in peace than they are.”
Brzezinski’s talk came just before the latest explosion of violence in the Gaza Strip and Israel. It also preceded the vote at the U.N. General Assembly to upgrade Palestine to a nonmember observer state by an overwhelming majority — and Israel’s retribution for the diplomatic maneuver: the announcement of plans to construct 3,000 housing units in East Jerusalem and the West Bank. Those plans include a highly sensitive area known as E1; critics say building on the strategic plot of land would destroy chances of a viable Palestinian state. The Israeli move infuriated European governments in Britain, France and Spain, which summoned Israeli ambassadors to lodge formal protests, although the United States only issued a token rebuke.
Despite helping to broker the 1979 peace treaty between Egypt and Israel, Brzezinski has never been known to be particularly sympathetic toward the latter.
In recent years, he’s praised Carter’s description of Israeli occupation of the West Bank as state-sanctioned apartheid and has stated publicly that Washington’s relationship with its closest Middle East ally was the result of Jewish pressure.
Once slated to become an official advisor to Obama, Brzezinski was passed over for the job after lawmakers of both parties warned that his anti-Israel sentiments would damage Obama at the polls.
Brzezinski still remains adamantly opposed to a military strike against Iran, whether from Israel or the United States — even if the Islamic Republic is on the verge of obtaining a nuclear weapon.
“This can be solved either by agreement or by intimidation, but not by war,” he contends. “War with Iran would be explosive and destructive for the entire region. I think the president [must] gradually move away from the notion that force is the last resort. It’s not a resort at all. Sanctions will continue and will eventually cause a change in Iran, but the U.S. should make it explicitly clear that if Iran makes a threat against any Middle Eastern state, we will react exactly the same way as if the Soviet Union had done this toward Western Europe, or if Japan is threatened by North Korea.” Brzezinski scoffed at the “red lines” demanded by Netanyahu in the Israeli leader’s speech in September — complete with cartoon-like nuclear bomb — before the United Nations General Assembly.
“The less ambiguity on the subject, the better. Don’t forget that sanctions are having an enormous impact already. It’s evident from the way the Iranians are reacting,” Brzezinski said. “But if you think the threat of nuclear war recedes if we attack Iran, just think of the consequences of such a war. Pakistan is much more likely to become a radical Islamic state. Are we supposed to also disarm Pakistan as the next phase?”
Brzezinski said the Obama administration should foster the emergence of moderate Israeli leaders willing to make compromises with the Palestinians to achieve a two-state solution. (As of press time, Netanyahu looked headed for an easy victory in Israel’s upcoming Jan. 22 election.)
“The Israelis are moving into a period of choosing between more right-wing and semi-fascist leaders. There’s a very militant extreme, and also a left of center which still desires peace — [Ehud] Olmert, [Tzipi] Livni, maybe [Ehud] Barak. These are options we ought to be encouraging,” Brzezinski said. “The Israelis are very aware that their long-term survival depends on America, and we haven’t made any progress in that direction. The Israelis have to realize that they must have a prime minister who can work closely with the president.”
He added, ominously: “I’m really doubtful about Israel’s survival once the United States is pushed out of the region.”
After his speech, Brzezinski fielded questions from several prominent people, including Paul Wolfowitz — former president of the World Bank and one of the architects of the Iraq War — who wondered how the Obama administration could be persuaded to “take the lead” in training and arming Syrian rebels.
Jane Harman, director of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars (profiled in the July 2012 People of World Influence column), asked what Israel could do to build a coalition among Palestinians that would require Hamas to renounce violence against the Jewish state. And Alia Hatoug-Bouran, Jordan’s ambassador to the United States, asked how to stop the building of Jewish settlements in territory the Palestinians one day hope to incorporate into their new state.
“Netanyahu can’t succeed in colonizing the West Bank,” Brzezinski responded. “What’s at stake is the future of the region, and our position because of our association with Israel. To perpetuate and deepen the existing hostility is, in the end, a prescription for historical drama that’s likely to end in tragedy. We have to have guts. We cannot do it simply by acquiescing to Netanyahu.”

STATE COLLEGE >> It was a “two runs and Ryan Marler” kind of week for La Salle.
For the second time in five days, the La Salle right-handed pitcher threw a complete game gem in the state tournament and for the second time in five days, the Explorers made sure two runs was enough. This time, it got La Salle its first state baseball championship in seven years.
Marler was superb Friday, leading the Explorers to a 2-1 win over North Allegheny in a PIAA Class 6A title game that lived up to its billing at Penn State’s Medlar Field at Lubrano Park.
“It’s a once in a lifetime feeling,” Marler, who was mobbed under the team dogpile on the mound, said. “It’s also a little painful when there’s 1200 pounds of guys on you, but with that kind of success, I didn’t feel any of the pain.”
Senior outfielder Justin Machita, who caught the final out of the game, noted the similarities to Monday’s semifinal win over North Penn. In that game, Marler went the distance, was efficient and La Salle scratched out two runs to get the job done. The Explorers were also outhit 6-5 in that game and the same was true Friday with the Tigers out-pacing the PCL champions 5-3 in hits.
It wasn’t enough to faze an Explorers team that’s played in every type of game imaginable this spring and had plenty of close-game experience to fall back on.
“We really talked about slowing the game down, not counting outs and going one pitch at a time,” Machita said. “Ryan did a great job. When the nine hitter got that hit I said to myself ‘this is going to come down to Cole Young in a big spot,’ and it did but I trusted Ryan to throw strikes and he got (Young) out.”
Marler was so efficient on Monday, throwing just 74 pitches against North Penn, he had an idea he might get to throw again Friday. He wasn’t expecting the start however but when coach Kyle Werman gave him the news after the team’s last practice before heading to State College, the righty was ready.
The outing capped a remarkable postseason for Marler, who threw in all four of La Salle’s state games, getting three wins as a starter. He got the ball to open states against Hatboro-Horsham, pitched in relief against Emmaus then started and went the distance in both games this week to end the season.
If he was fatigued, he didn’t show it.
“I thought I’d get in for one, maybe two innings today but I definitely didn’t think this,” Marler said. “I think it was to my benefit that I kept my pitch count down in the last game. I was sore a few days after but today, I felt amazing coming out, my arm felt amazing. The mental side of the game, I had hours to prepare for this, on the bus ride, the hotel, just getting locked in to win.”
Marler’s best inning might have been the one where he allowed a run. North Allegheny’s stellar junior shortstop Cole Young led off the sixth with a walk and after stealing second and advancing another base, scored on Danny Gallon’s RBI single to cut the lead to 2-1.
Gallon wouldn’t advance another foot as Marler came back strong to retire the next three hitters in order to quiet the Tigers’ crowd and keep his team in front. The senior said it was a steady diet of changeups that got him through the frame and kept NA’s batters out of whack.
Werman said there was no doubt Marler was getting the start Friday and thought that sixth inning represented the reason why.
“You want a guy you know is going to be in the zone with two or three pitches, is going to compete, will manage your running game and he’s not going to do anything to shoot himself in the foot,” Werman said. “There’s also moments in a game and in a high school game you really see it, where that anxiety can kick in and it’s a time where you can give something up. It’s easy to beat yourself in those moments but he did a great job, got a few outs and you’re still in the lead.”
Senior right fielder Joe Cattie wasn’t worried. He’s seen Marler come through before and knew his teammate would do it again.
“I was hoping we’d go back to him, he’s such a stone-cold killer out there,” Cattie said. “He does an amazing job pounding the strike zone and he’s not afraid to put the ball down the middle where it needs to be and he hits his spots. We all trusted him to do that today.
“Nobody would have expected him to go two complete games, but he’s just a dog.”
La Salle got all the offense it needed in the second inning. Machita and senior center fielder Danny Wagner worked back-to-back walks to open the top of the frame, with Machita coming in on Brian Baquero’s following RBI single. Jephson Hadson-Taylor’s infield single was enough to get Wagner in and the senior would hold up as the eventual winning run.
Before every inning, the fielders meet outside their dugout for a quick chat and Wagner said that was key to keeping their nerves in check for the bottom of the seventh.
“Ryan pitching two complete games in the semifinals and championship, we were more than confident in him,” Wagner said. “I think we’re all just so happy to be out here. We expected this. North Allegheny is a great team but with our guys, I’m confident going out against any team in the state and we showed that today.”
La Salle won its third state championship, joining the 2012 and 2014 teams. North Allegheny had four teams play for state titles this year, with wins in girls basketball and boys volleyball and falling short in girls soccer and baseball.
Marler will be attending West Chester next year and is considering trying to walk on to the university’s baseball team. He built himself a pretty good resume this week.
“This has been four years in the making,” Marler said. “We’ve been grinding for this, practicing for this and I’m really excited the outcome was what it was today. We were ready to come in a go to war.”
LA SALLE 2, NORTH ALLEGHENY 1
LA SALLE 020 000 0 – 2 3 2
NORTH ALLEGHENY 000 001 0 – 1 5 1

Salman Khan and Shahid Kapoor shared bad vibes during the Rockstar tour three years ago. So Shahid was hardly a contender on the list of possible stars for Salman's show 10 Ka Dum. But the impossible happened and Kapoor ended up on one episode of Khan's show, along with Rani Mukherjee for their upcoming film Dil Bole Hadippa.
According to an eye-witness on the show, the two actors shared cold vibes during filming, "Rani arrived first and went to Salman's dressing room to greet Salman. Later Shahid dropped in to meet the host and break the ice. Salman was cordial but not as warm as he was to Rani."
The meeting formality done, Shahid went on to the sets to rehearse and he was bright and cheerful but once Salman came on stage, the whole atmosphere changed. The source adds, "Salman was very friendly and warm with Rani and kept hugging her. With Shahid, he appeared formal and aloof. His 'Hi' to Shahid was dry, even though normally, he is very warm with his guests. Also each time he addressed the younger actor, he seemed indifferent.
During the knockout round, Rani had more correct answers and her co-star's face fell but Salman did nothing to cheer him up. For most of his questions, he asked Rani to share her thoughts and experiences; he was cool and indifferent with the Kaminey star."
The finale was the time when it became obvious that Salman did have a problem with Shaks. "While Salman gave Rani a long, warm hug, all Shahid got was a half-hearted hug — just an arm around the shoulders. Salman never made any attempt to make Shahid feel at ease, like he does with his other contestants. It was obvious that the normally chatty Salman was not at ease with Shahid."
The producer of the show Anita Basu admits that Salman was warmer with Rani and reserved with Shahid but adds, "That's because Salman has known Rani for a long time and they are almost like chaddi buddies so naturally there is a different kind of warmth and relationship they both share. Salman didn't make it obvious but played the host perfectly and was cordial. I guess, to him, Shahid is still a newcomer and he was much warmer with Rani as they are really thick friends." Both Shahid Kapoor and Salman Khan remained unavailable for comment. The Shahid-Rani episode will be aired on Sony TV on September 12.

In Chinese medicine, there is the idea that when the bodies defensive qi (immune system) is strong, that a person will not get sick, even when exposed to illness (which is constantly around us). It is like a wall fortifying the exterior of the body that when strong, nothing can pass through. When we get run down, that wall becomes weaker and no longer as capable of protecting the temple within. The above mix, helps to keep the wall strong and the pathogens out.
When the cold or flu ‘bug’ starts to attack the wall, trying to get into the body, we start to feel a little unwell. You might find yourself saying something like, “I feel like I am coming down with something,” “my throat feels a little sore,” “my nose is a little stuffy,” or “I feel a bit achy”. This is the time to take immediate action to push the bug out of the body before it really takes hold or gets in deeper. Chinese medicine does this by sweating the pathogen out through the pores. If you act when you are just beginning to feel a little sick, you can prevent it from getting worse.
This is an adaption of a classic Chinese recipe that has been used for over 1000 years for the purpose of relieving the beginning stages of a cold.

The sandbox gameplay model gives the player much freedom in exploration of Liberty City, a virtual metropolis, where you can move around using various vehicles (cars, motorbikes, and helicopters, among others). How the story unfolds depends on the player’s choices regarding order in which the missions are completed. Apart from single player gameplay, Grand Theft Auto IV offers online or LAN multiplayer for up to 32 people.
Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince
Arcade 08 October 2019
The fourth installment in the series of logic platform games, created by the team at Frozenbyte. As in the previous editions of the cycle, we play as three heroes connected by the eponymous artifact.
Far Cry 5
Action 27 March 2018
Far Cry 5 is the fifth installment of the first-person action game series from Ubisoft. Unlike the previous installments of the series that took place in various exotic locations, Far Cry 5 takes the players to Montana, one of the least populated states of the USA. We play as a police officer (we can choose our character's gender and customize his/her looks) whose job is to infiltrate and destroy a crime organization that works under the cover of a fanatical cult led by the charismatic Joseph Seed who believes in a ruthless and sadistic way of dealing with enemies. In terms of gameplay, Far Cry 5 offers the biggest open world in the history of the series. Thus, vehicles play an important role here. It is filled with various side and main quests and other additional activities. The game offers a wide range of weapons for us to use and a rather complex crafting system. We also will be able to tame wild animals to make them fight on our side.
Action 27 January 2015
An first-person perspective survival horror game, created by the Polish developer Techland, known for Dead Island and the Call of Juarez series, among others. The player assumes the role of a character who is trying to survive in a zombie-infested metropolis. The sandbox gameplay of Dying Light is divided into two phases. During the day, the game puts main focus on exploration and acquisition of raw materials and weapons, while at night players must face hordes of the living dead. The creators wanted to put the accent on two gameplay elements: thrilling combat with a variety of weapons (including crafted ones), and dynamic movement throughout the city, enabling the players to overcome terrain obstacles using parkour. In addition to a single-player campaign, Dying Light also offers a four-person cooperation mode via the Internet.
RPG 24 March 2015
An action RPG and a spiritual successor to the bestselling Dark Souls series and its predecessor, Demon's Souls. The game was developed by their creator – Hidetaka Miyazaki – and his studio From Software. The plot takes us into a dark fantasy universe presented in a style reminiscent of the nineteenth-century Victorian era. Residents of a bleak metropolis called Yharnam are afflicted by a mysterious plague which turns people into ferocious beasts. The goal of the game is to discover the city's secrets and to determine who or what is responsible for the deadly disease. Gameplay mechanics do not differ from the patterns known from Dark Souls, focusing mainly on the advanced combat system. Apart from parrying, dodging and quick counter-attacks they also include the option of using a firearm. The artwork is remarkable, and the game world is much larger and more open, which was made possible thanks to the potential of the eight generation consoles.
Tom Clancy's The Division 2
Action 15 March 2019
The second installment in the popular action game series (with RPG elements) that revolve around multiplayer experience. Tom Clancy's The Division 2 is a result of cooperation between Ubisoft Massive and other development teams owned by the French publisher. The game is based on the modified Snowdrop Engine, thus the visuals are of very high quality.
Shooter enriched with elements of simulation game and economic strategy, in which our task is to create a powerful factory complex on one of the distant planets. To do this, we travel the map in search of useful raw materials, construct buildings, construct various equipment and production lines, as well as face aggressive predators living in the wilderness.
Divinity: Fallen Heroes
Tactical spin-off of Divinity series, which is the result of cooperation between Larian Studios and Logic Artists team. The game allows you to lead a group of heroes on a journey to unknown corners of the world of Rivellon, where we will face a new threat.
Call of Duty: WWII
Action 03 November 2017
Call of Duty: WWII is another installment in the extremely popular first-person shooter series developed by Sledgehammer Games. The game comes back to its roots and takes the players to the World War II era. We play as "Red" Daniels (member of the famous 1st Infantry Division) and take part in a series of the most important battles of WWII, including Normandy, Ardennes, the Liberation of Paris, and the Battle of Berlin. We will use all kinds of weapons as we play. In many cases, cooperation with our unit is the only way to achieve victory. if we run out of ammo or need healing, we have to ask one of our team mates for bullets or medical kits. Along with the single player campaign, Call of Duty: WWII offers a competitive multiplayer mode. The biggest novelties found in the game are the narrative War mode and the Headquarters, game's social center so to speak. As usual, the game comes with a B-class movies styled Zombie mode where we will face undead Nazis.
Need for Speed: Payback
Racing 10 November 2017
Another installment of the popular racing game series, developed by Ghost Games in cooperation with Electronic Arts. In Need for Speed: Payback players get to follow the adventures of three characters - Tyler, Mac, and Jess – seeking revenge on their former partner who betrayed them. In order to do this, they have to face the Familia cartel – a criminal organization with influences nearly everywhere, even the police. This means that in this uneven fight, the three protagonists can count only on themselves. The action of the game is set in the city of Fortune Valley, and during the playthrough, the player participates in a series of races divided into several main categories, including police pursuit, time challenge, stunt competition, car battles and – for the first time in the series’ history – off-road races. Need for Speed: Payback offers a traditional vast selection of licensed vehicles, which can be modified as one sees fit. These cars represent five separate types: race, drift, off-road, drag, and runner. Additionally, each character has unique skills affecting the vehicle's handling characteristics.
Mass Effect: Andromeda
RPG 21 March 2017
The fourth part of the hugely popular action RPG game series in a space-opera setting. BioWare Montreal, the development studio that helped create the two previous installments took the reins of Mass Effect: Andromeda's development. The game's story is not associated with the trilogy about Commander Shepard's fight against the Reapers, offering instead a completely separate plot featuring new characters and locations. Using the proven pattern, the creators of Mass Effect: Andromeda put the focus on a spectacular TPP action experience and moral choices that have a direct impact on the course of events. The technical side of the game is based on the third-generation Frostbite engine, providing high-quality audiovisuals.

In a W magazine interview about which movies make him cry, actor Michael Keaton admitted he’s a “fairly big pussy”, so he cries easily.
The recent Golden Globe awardee went on to talk about the movies he has cried about while watching — “anything to do with, you know, family, breaks up….boy, this is too hard. I’d have to actually think about this and think about a particular movie because, you know, with me, I wept at The Other Guys“.
Keaton then goes on to talk about movies and actresses that have made him cry.
And, once you’ve watched this (you can do that below), you’ll realize why he said at Sunday’s Golden Globes that he wasn’t going to cry, before he did, and why he had so many problems holding back the tears when he talked about his ‘best friend’, his son.
And, can I just say, although I’ve always always always loved Michael Keaton (what an amazing actor), I’ll love him till the day I die after watching his speech at the Globes on Sunday. As what a nice, kind and lovely man he is. You can watch that speech below as well.

Last week, Donald Trump was hit with a second gag order, this one by Judge Chutkan in the January 6 case brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith.
On Friday, that order was temporarily lifted, shocking everyone.
Special Counsel Jack Smith previously submitted his motion, which was under consideration by Judge Chutkan.
Once Judge Engoron hit Trump with a gag order in the Georgia case, we had stated that the gag order on January 6 was more likely to be approved.
On October 16, Judge Chutkan approved the limited gag order, which forbade Trump from making any public statement about potential witnesses or disparaging comments about the prosecutors.
Judge Chutkan stated:
"Mr. Trump may still vigorously seek public support as a presidential candidate, debate policies and people related to that candidacy, criticize the current administration and assert his belief that this prosecution is politically motivated. But those critical first amendment freedoms do not allow him to launch a pre-trial smear campaign against participating government staff, their families and foreseeable witnesses.
"Mr. Trump can certainly claim he's being unfairly prosecuted, but I cannot imagine any other criminal case in which a defendant is permitted to call the prosecutor 'deranged' or 'a thug,' and I will not permit it here simply because the defendant is running a political campaign. His presidential candidacy does not give him carte blanche to vilify and implicitly encourage violence against public servants who are simply doing their job."
On October 17, Trump's attorneys appealed against the gag order, citing Trump's candidacy for president.
"No Court in American history has imposed a gag order on a criminal defendant who is campaigning for public office — least of all, on the leading candidate for President of the United States."
Judge Chutkan has now agreed to lift the temporary order while this appeals process plays out.
"Upon consideration of Defendant's opposed 110 Motion for Stay Pending Appeal, Request for Temporary Administrative Stay, and Memorandum in Support, it is hereby ORDERED that the court's 105 Opinion and Order is administratively STAYED to permit the parties' briefing and the court's consideration of Defendant's Motion."
This is a big opportunity for Trump to have this lifted permanently if he can dial down the rhetoric just a bit so it is not so "threatening" in nature.
Chutkan has already stated that Trump can criticize the Department of Justice, and he can still suggest that the case is politically motivated. It is just the personal attacks they are trying to stop.
It does not benefit Trump to continue those attacks if it means he gets slapped with a gag order.
These cases have been goldmines for Trump in terms of fundraising, so he will lose a significant and very successful tool in his campaign chest if the gag order is permitted to remain in place during the course of this trial.
If I were his attorneys, I would plead with him to have someone on the legal team review his posts before he makes them to ensure they are able to keep that gag order at bay while this trial takes place by avoiding over-inflammatory comments and personal attacks against court staffers.


Toronto’s Sean James Boyer has built his musical reputation as an in-demand television scorer. His musical imagination is wide enough to encompass a variety of programming such as Discovery’s Last Stop Garage, the T&E Network’s Haunted Case Files, and Alone on the History Channel, among many others. It’s a natural outgrowth of a passion for music first flaring to life as a child when he would dress himself up as Indiana Jones or Superman and zoom around his parents’ home singing melodies from those renowned scores. His brother shared his passion for music and aided the young Boyer to take his first fledgling steps as a guitarist. Boyer later studied jazz guitar and music theory during his college years.
His time interning for an ad agency is where his own musical ambitions first took flight. He put his love for music to good use crafting jingles and learning the ins and outs of producing television and radio commercials. He soon founded his own music production company and began scoring his first TV shows, films, and documentaries. His years of apprenticeship immediately paid off. His penchant for musical storytelling serves him well scoring the recent Netflix 3D animated series My Little Pony: Make Your Mark, the theme song for the TV sitcom Amelia Parker, and a standalone hybrid cinematic action piece entitled Dark Horse Dominion.
“Sunny Saves the Day” from My Little Pony: Make Your Mark packs a wallop despite being a little less than two minutes long. Boyer’s score makes excellent use of a full orchestra, sweeping synthesizer lines, and woodwinds. The synthesis of these different components into an unified whole suggests grand adventure while still maintaining a light touch at key points. Dynamics are key. There’s a rising and falling dimension to the score’s grandeur engrossing listeners from the first and holding their attention throughout.
Amelia Parker’s theme song opens each episode with a strong vocal and the arrangement’s near gospel feel. It gains an added dimension, however, from the obvious pop strands coloring the song. Boyer’s writing tailors it for its introductory slot opening the show, thus its short duration, but it is nonetheless thoroughly satisfying. Adding finger snaps as the sole source of percussion is a creative move that helps separate the piece from more run of the mill fare and the smattering of backing vocals diversifies the arrangement as well.
“Dark Horse Dominion” has appeared in TV spots and show placements. Boyer includes the song, as well, on a production music album Codename Assassin recorded for such a purpose. The piece allows Boyer an opportunity to indulge his love for guitar and he seamlessly integrates the instrument into an orchestral and synth dominated arrangement. The track’s orchestration is crucial. He develops the piece from a comparatively muted opening into dramatic and towering musical architecture.
Sean James Boyer is still ambitious despite his small screen success. His avowed yearning to begin scoring major motion pictures is the next logical step after hearing these aforementioned scores; his imaginative approach to arranging would bolster any movie. Let’s hope he gets that opportunity soon.

Summer can be a great time for mushroom sales, grower-shippers say.
Gourmet Mushrooms Inc.At Avondale, Pa.-based To-Jo Mushrooms, marketing director Peter Wilder said the company sees “a nice lift” in the portabella category during the warm-weather months as consumers fire up their outdoor grills.
Wilder said he’s seen a slight increase in pricing for the mushroom for the past two quarters, as well.
“Demand is up for mushrooms,” he said.
“The Mushroom Council is doing a wonderful job of engaging with consumers about the benefits of mushrooms from a health perspective and a flavor perspective.”
Mushroom media mentions are at an all-time high, he added.
“The outreach is working.”
The specialties segment also has experienced increases as demand for healthful items increases, Wilder said.
“Summer is a great time for grilling mushrooms,” agreed Bill Litvin, senior vice president of sales and national account manager for Giorgio Fresh Co., Blandon, Pa.
“Our customers take advantage of the warm season by throwing a variety of mushrooms on the grill or adding them to their favorite kabobs,” he said.
Summer sales usually are “not too bad,” said Fletcher Street, director of marketing and sales for Ostrom Mushroom Farms, Olympia, Wash.
Business tends to picks up after a relatively slow period in April and May.
“In general, over the last year, mushroom business has been pretty strong,” she said.
She said sales were a bit slower than usual as summer kicked off — probably throughout the industry.
She agreed that good publicity about the nutrition, taste and versatility of mushrooms seems to fit the healthful lifestyles many consumers are adopting.
“People are discovering (mushrooms) as a culinary item more than ever,” she said. “We’re all reaping the benefit of that.”
The blendability concept where mushrooms are substituted for meat also is helping, she said.
Ostrom Mushroom Farms’ offerings include white crimini mushrooms and portabellas, and the company also buys organic shiitake and oyster mushrooms from family farms in Oregon.
For Watsonville, Calif.-based Monterey Mushrooms Inc., summer business is OK, but it tends to be down from some other times of the year because of competition from local fresh fruits and vegetables, said Joe Caldwell, vice president.
“You have a lot of (local products) available for options,” he said.
Even in the mushroom category itself, consumers seem to change their eating pattern in summer, picking up more portabellas for grilling, Caldwell said.

PARIS — France, still reeling from the attack on Thursday in the southern coastal city of Nice that killed 84 people, observed its second of three days of national mourning on Sunday, as the French police held three more people in connection with the assault, according to news reports.
The nation has been left wondering whether the attack, in which a Tunisian man plowed a 19-ton refrigerated truck through crowds gathered for fireworks on Bastille Day, could have been avoided — or whether it must adjust to a harsh new reality.
But no evidence has emerged so far that Mr. Lahouaiej Bouhlel, 31, a delivery truck driver living in Nice, was in contact with the Islamic State, or that he was exposed to its propaganda.
A man and a woman were arrested Sunday morning, French news media reported, and another man was detained later on Sunday, according to Agence France-Presse.
A Trail of Terror in Nice, Block by Block
Documenting devastation along a one-mile stretch of waterfront.
None were identified, although some reports said that the man and woman were an Albanian couple, and that the man was suspected of providing Mr. Lahouaiej Bouhlel with the automatic pistol he used on the night of the attack.
Four other people had been taken in for questioning on Friday and Saturday.
Mr. Lahouaiej Bouhlel’s estranged wife, who had also been taken in for questioning, was released without charges on Sunday.
Her lawyer, Jean-Yves Garino, told the BFM TV news channel that Mr. Lahouaiej Bouhlel was physically violent with her and other members of the family.
She eventually threw him out and was no longer in touch with him, Mr. Garino added.
Although they have not put forth specific evidence, French officials say Mr. Lahouaiej Bouhlel appeared to have taken the path to extremism very shortly before the attack.
In an interview published on Sunday in the Journal du Dimanche newspaper, the French prime minister, Manuel Valls, said the kind of terrorism seen in Nice was “hard to anticipate,” noting that the killer had “radicalized very quickly.”
“Daesh provides unbalanced individuals with an ideological kit that gives their acts meaning,” Mr. Valls said, using an Arabic acronym for the Islamic State. “The investigation will have to prove it, but that was probably the case for the attack in Nice.”
There were reports on Sunday that Mr. Lahouaiej Bouhlel had spent time researching his route on the waterfront promenade where the attack unfolded, as he was caught on surveillance cameras driving the truck in the area on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Agence France-Presse and other French news media, quoting anonymous police officials, also reported on Sunday that Mr. Lahouaiej Bouhlel had sent a text message shortly before the attack in which he appeared to ask for more weapons, but it was unclear whom the message had been for and what exactly it had said.
Mr. Lahouaiej Bouhlel used an automatic pistol to shoot at the police officers who tried to stop him on the promenade; several fake weapons were also found in his truck after he was fatally shot.
On Sunday, people continued to gather in Nice and in many other French cities to hold minutes of silence or to commemorate the victims.
In Paris, there was a Mass at the Cathedral of Notre-Dame on Sunday evening.
The Paris prosecutor’s office said in a statement on Sunday that 49 people hurt in the attack remained in critical condition, 18 of them fighting for their lives. The total number of injured was 256, down from a figure provided on Saturday by the Health Ministry.
The prosecutor’s office also said that the French authorities had sped up the process to identify the dead, but that only 35 had been formally identified so far.
At least 10 children were killed and 35 hurt. Families and tourists had gathered on the waterfront on Thursday evening to watch fireworks celebrating Bastille Day.

My move to Buenos Aires changed my entire life. I was excited, nervous, and didn’t know what to expect. I fell in love with the city as soon as I entered it.

I made Buenos Aires my home for many years, my children grew up here and I took every opportunity to travel visiting other areas of South America.

The most important thing to have in the midst of great darkness is a source of light. For one seeking to make their way through difficult terrain, the ability to understand what are the potential hazards and what can assist the journey is vital to moving towards the goal that one seeks. If a man finds himself without light in the midst of great darkness, we say rightfully that he is lost. He is not able to recognize what he has nor the path which he wishes to take.
We live in dark times and many are lost. It seems as though there are few lights and few sources of wisdom. We live in a time of great uncertainty and this uncertainty will most likely remain for the foreseeable future.
The past year has seen many foundations of our society challenged to the core. In such circumstances, we have seen great acts of virtue and heroism and sadly the corruption of human hearts as it manifests itself in our communities and our world. This year has revealed the best of us and the worse, and in a certain sense it has probably revealed to each one of us the best of ourselves and the worse.
Some might feel the temptation to lament times such as these, to immerse themselves in defeat and to fail to understand that even the midst of great darkness, the light of Christ always is victorious.
Some might wish me to be forthright and direct in supporting one political position or another. Some say that in this great conflict there is good and there is evil, and as a shepherd I should protect my flock from evil and direct them towards the good.
This is true. There is indeed a war between good and evil, but in fact there has always been a war between good and evil and that war is primarily fought within the human heart. Within you is great good and great evil. In times such as these, we can fail to understand that we possess within us great evil and that every human heart is in need of conversion.
One of the saddest spiritual ailments of our time is that many people have great fear and anxiety about many things in the world, but hardly a single person pauses to consider the damnation of their immortal soul. People are willing to commit great evil for their political cause without a single thought to the fact that they will stand before the judgment seat of God and be held accountable for their actions.
I do not wish to tell you how to engage in the civil life of our country, but I must teach you to understand the light which must guide your actions.
He who lies and cheats and steals, no matter what their political cause puts his immortal soul in danger of eternal damnation. He who kills the innocent, who promotes lies and deceptions, who slanders, who worships false gods.. such a man is called to repent and change his ways lest he spend his eternity among the damned.
There is indeed a war between good and evil, and good will triumph at the final judgment. And in the midst of so much darkness, there is a light.
At this very hour, God is true to his promises. He teaches in Romans 8:28 “that all things work to the good for those who believe.” God never loses. Even should all of us die painful deaths as martyrs, God will have designed this for his glory and for ours. Even if we should lose everything we cherish in this world and watch our families die in shame and poverty, such will have been ordained for a higher purpose that we will not discover in this world. God never loses.
As our Lord speaks to us in Job 1:21, “The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away;
blessed be the name of the LORD!”
In this dark hour, see the light and have no fear. Or rather “do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul and body in Gehenna…” as our Lord says in Matthew 10:28.
Likewise, hear our Lord speak to you this day, “But seek first the kingdom [of God] and his righteousness,* and all these things will be given you besides. Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its own evil (Matthew 6:33-34).”
Brothers and sisters, take confidence in the Lord. He has brought you to this moment, and he will give you his grace to aid in your salvation. Put your trust in the Lord and not in the world. Live by his law and seek his righteousness.
We live in great darkness and there is only one light that can lead you through it.
That light is Jesus Christ.

$48 Million Florida Mansion Demolished!
A home that sold earlier this year for $48.8 million is now a pile of rubble. One of Florida's most historic homes built on the site in 1937 for the chairman of Schlitz Brewing was torn down in 1981 and replaced by a new home that was remodeled in 2007 spending about $25 million. That home was purchased earlier this year and soon demolished. src: www.usatoday.com

The story of the 2010 Washington Redskins needs no retelling. If the images of McNabb sulking on the sidelines and Haynesworth rolling on the ground aren’t burned into your memory then you weren’t paying attention. It can be argued that the issues with McNabb were partly his being taken out of comfortable surroundings and then feuding with the Shanahans. What cannot be argued is that McNabb threw a career high in interceptions with 15 and his lowest number of touchdowns since 2003 with 14, and his 77.1 passer rating was his worst since his rookie season in 1999 when he had a passer rating of 60.1. At the age of 34 Donovan McNabb had the worst season of his career, and he found himself benched for Rex Grossman in the final three games.
The main issues with the Redskins in 2010 were the same as they have always been. They continued to try and be the off-season champs with the trade for McNabb and stuck with Albert Haynesworth in the 3-4 defense despite his objections that he was not that type of player. Haynesworth swore that by working out with his personal trainer he would be ready for the 2010 season, but he failed multiple fitness tests and missed time in training camp. This season the Redskins do not have a McNabb, Portis, or Haynesworth, but what they might have is a team. The 2010 Redskins were seen as a disappointment more because of the expectations than the results. The team finished with the record the talent dictated it should.
The Redskins have made it a habit to ignore problems at the bottom and middle of the roster and to try and go for the big splash. The Redskins never wanted to put a team on the field. They wanted a collection of stars they hoped would play well together and cover up shortcomings at non-glory positions like the offensive and defensive line. When the big name signings and trades failed the Redskins ended up left with nothing and struggled through season after season. This off-season the Redskins took a different approach. They traded 35 year old defensive lineman Vonnie Holliday to the Cardinals for 24 year old running back Tim Hightower. In 13 games started for the Cardinals in 2010 Hightower averaged 4.8 yards a carry and 46 yards a game with an average of only 9.6 carries a game. A league average running back average 4.2 yards a carry in 2010. With a normal workload of between 20-25 carries a game Hightower could provide a vast improvement to the Redskins running game.

Last season the Redskins had Clinton Portis who had been good for them, but in 2010 he was only able to play in five games and averaged 4.2 yards a carry. With no one having signed Portis to a contract for the 2011 season his career very likely has reached its end. The 2011 offensive line is much the same as the 2010 offensive line. The Redskins did cut center Casey Rabach and move Will Montgomery to center, but most of the other members on the line will be the same. It was a unit that at times looked good, but at others could be porous. The improved running game provided by Tim Hightower should take pressure off the offensive line when other teams have to game plan against the running game as well as the passing game. In 2010 Redskins’ opponents could rush the passer at will, knowing that the running game was not much of a threat.
In 2010 the Redskins defense struggled in its first year as a 3-4 defense finishing ranked 31st in yards allowed and 31st and 26th in passing yards and rushing yards allowed. In order to address both these issues the Redskins signed OJ Atogwe, Barry Cofield, Josh Wilson, and drafted Ryan Kerrigan. For the Rams in 2010 Atogwe had three interceptions and two sacks in 15 games started. Atogwe’s nine passes defended would have been the most of any safety. Barry Cofield in 2010 had 40 tackles and four sacks at the age of 26 for the New York Giants, and Josh Wilson had three interceptions, 14 passes defended, and one fumble recovered in 14 games for the Baltimore Ravens. Atogwe’s and Wilson’s three interceptions would have ranked second on the Redskins to only DeAngelo Hall’s six. Neither Wilson, Cofield, or Atogwe are stars, but they weren’t signed to be. They are all solid defensive players that will show up and do their jobs and let players like Kerrigan, Orakpo, and Landry shine.
The 2011 Redskins should be a better team than the 2010 Redskins. The distraction of aging and underperforming players is gone, and what remains is a team that is stronger in nearly every aspect. With Rex Grossman named to be the starter on September 11th against the Giants the QB issues are far from solved, but Grossman doesn’t have to be great. All the Shanahans want out of a QB is someone that will manage the game, not turn the ball over, and will let the running game and defense win it. Grossman’s career 54.2 completion percentage, 70.9 passer rating, and 1/1 touchdown to interception ratio is not pretty, but the Redskins don’t want a gun slinging QB. They want a QB that can fit a system and hand the ball off while completing short passes to keep the defense off balance just enough to score more points than the Redskins’ defense allows.
How all of this translates to a final record has yet to be seen. The Redskins ended up going 3-1 in the pre-season but still struggled to score touchdowns when in the red zone and allowed 833 passing yards on 72 completions out of 139 attempts for an average of 6.8 yards. The Redskins defense, while poor against the pass, was able to hold opponents to only 4.1 yards a rushing attempt, but pre-season stats only mean so much. The Redskins look to be a better team, but that doesn’t guarantee a better record.
The Redskins should be able to beat the Dolphins and Bills, could beat the Cowboys, Cardinals, Panthers, Rams, 49ers, Seahawks, and Vikings, and should struggle with the Eagles, Patriots, Giants, and Jets. When it is all said and done the Redskins could win anywhere from 2 to 10 games. The NFL is unpredictable and teams sometimes lose the games they should win and win the games they should lose. The Redskins will likely finish with a win total somewhere in the middle of that range, and if that happens to be a 6-10 record once again, it will be from a team that is finally on the correct path to rebuilding.
The Washington Redskins season begins on Sunday against the New York Giants. It will be a good test for the Redskins and win or lose it should give hints into how the rest of the season will go for the Redskins. The Giants will be missing most of their defensive line which might help the Redskins running game. The Redskins defense will also be tested as the Giants passing has always given them trouble and it won’t be long until Redskins fans find out if new editions Atogwe, Wilson, Cofield, and Kerrigan can help to slow down Eli Manning, Mario Manningham, and the rest of the Giants passing attack. The Giants have also had success running on the Redskins as they have struggled in the past to slow down both Brandon Jacobs and Ahmad Bradshaw.
The offense will also be tested even with most of the Giants defensive line out they are still a solid unit and depth has always been a strength. The Redskins haven’t beaten the Giants since 2007 and in 2011 the Giants look once again the be a tough test. Win or lose this game will reveal more about the Redskins roster than any pre-season game. The Giants defense will try and spend as much time in the Redskins backfield as possible and the offensive line will be tested even with so many of the Giants defensive stars injured. Grossman will have to be ready to stand in against a blitz that will put pressure on him every time he drops back. The Redskins are going to have a tough time winning this one, but a lot more will be known about the type of team the Redskins have after this game is over.

Kendrick Lamar has unveiled the cover art for his new album, giving a rare glimpse into what his family life looks like. The rapper reveals the duality of his role as a protector and nurturer in the symbolic cover.
Kendrick’s Cover Reveals Glimpse At Family
Rapper Kendrick Lamar has released the cover art for his album, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, which drops this Friday.
The artwork features the “Humble” rapper wearing a white t-shirt and crown of thorns, his back to the camera with a gun tucked into his back. The rapper is holding a toddler, likely his daughter while a woman resembling his fiance Whitney Alford is sitting on the bed holding an infant.
The album cover offers a rare glimpse into Kendrick as a family man. In the photo, the crown evokes the role of a savior and nurturer while the gun tucked quietly into the small of his back reveals him as a fierce protector and defender of his family.
Kendrick The Heart Part 5 Video
Last Sunday, The Grammy award winner gave the fans a new song titled “The Heart Part 5” with a powerful video in which his face morphs into symbols of scandal and condemnation, namely Kobe Bryant, OJ Simpson, Kanye West, Nipsey Hussle, Wll Smith, and Jussie Smollett. The video is being called a “masterpiece.”
The track reflects on gang violence, religion, mental health, and the murder of Nipsey Hussle. Hussle was shot to death in 2019 outside his clothing store in Los Angeles. He is one of many influencers of the “DAMN” artist.

Required For DIY Gun Repairs
Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2013
II don't consider my self a gun smith but I have worked on a host of different firearms and this manual has been a great help when a buddy brings me a gun that has been disassembled all ready or is a good reference with pictures that helps one understand the guns functions and design characteristics. For example, I worked on an old Stevens Model 54A that came to me with a missing extractor, spring and plunger. This book helped me to locate a similar part and modify it to original function so that the extractor was once again operational on this old firearm!

The development, implementation, and process evaluation of the REACH Detroit Partnership's Diabetes Lifestyle Intervention.
The purpose of this article was to describe the development, implementation, and process evaluation findings of a culturally tailored diabetes lifestyle intervention for African Americans and Latinos.
African American and Latino adults with type 2 diabetes from 3 health care systems in Detroit, Michigan, participated in diabetes lifestyle intervention of the Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community Health Detroit Partnership. The intervention curricula were culturally and linguistically tailored for each population. Trained community residents delivered the curricula in 5 group meetings aimed at improving dietary, physical activity, and diabetes self-care behaviors of study participants. The aims of the process evaluation were to assess participant satisfaction with the intervention, utility, and applicability of information and cultural relevance of intervention materials. Content analysis was used to analyze qualitative data. Matrices were developed along thematic lines, and common themes were determined by grouping responses by question.
Ninety-eight percent of participants attended 1 or more intervention classes; 41% attended all 5 meetings. Attendance rates ranged from 59% to 88% for individual meetings. Participants reported that program information and activities were useful, culturally relevant, and applicable to diabetes self-management. Participants also appreciated the convenient community location for meetings and the social support received from other participants.
A community-based, culturally tailored diabetes lifestyle intervention delivered by trained community residents was associated with high participant satisfaction and retention.

There is nothing like getting sweet, fried chicken revenge.
That’s what Frederico Hill from Indonesia got to experience after he posted a story on Facebook about the revenge he enacted on a woman who insulted him.
Frederico was minding his own business while waiting in line at a fried chicken restaurant last week when he overheard the woman behind him talking to her kids. He heard her say to the kids that they should only eat one piece, or they’d wind up, quote, “fat” like the guy in front of them.
So Frederico decided to teach everyone a lesson by buying every single piece of the fried chicken the store had ready. It only cost him around $17.
So he walked out with 15 pieces of chicken as he heard the clerk telling the woman she would have to wait 30 minutes for them to cook up more.
