The Rise of Negationism
"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness" (Romans 1:18 NAS).
Negationism first appeared in the 1987 book by French historian Henry Rousso, The Vichy Syndrome. Rousso differentiated between legitimate historical revisionism in Holocaust studies and politically-motivated denial of the Holocaust, which he termed négationnisme (negationism). It has since come to represent the denial of historic crimes.
Elements of negationism include Deception, falsifying information or obscuring the truth. Denial, claiming facts are untrue or shifting the blame. Relativization, comparing to other crimes. Trivialization, using a substitute word (holocaust) rather than genocide to describe an action.
Various countries now require education about Nazi Germany's effort to eliminate Jews from Europe from 1933-1945. In the U.S., eleven states require such education. Oregon stipulates that instruction must "prepare students to confront the immorality of the Holocaust, genocide, and other acts of mass violence and to reflect on the causes of related historical events." Recently a Florida high school principal was let go after emailing a parent, who wondered why his school was not providing such instruction, that he could not "say the Holocaust is a factual, historical event."
One normally draws on objective historical facts to explain our present-day worldview. When political agendas lead educators, news media, and political pundits to engage in historical negationism, efforts to formulate a proper world view are stymied. Although negationism is primarily associated with the actions of Nazi Germany, atrocities since World War II have also become distorted. Among these are the genocide of Armenians by the Ottomans (1915); the Nanking Massacre by Imperial Japan (1937); genocide of the Tutsi by the Hutus in Rwanda (1994); genocide at the World Trade Center by radical Islamists (2001).
British historian Ian Kershaw, who wrote a definitive biography of Adolph Hitler, was asked in 1999 to define the lesson from Hitler's Germany. He responded, "It shows us how thin civilization is." When Hitler rose, Germany was advanced in the arts, sciences, education and industry. But Hitler built a military so quickly that in six weeks Germany annihilated the powerful French army. The culture that gave the world Einstein, Beethoven, and Bach justified the murder of six million Jews. If it could happen where people were so advanced in so many phases of human progress, it can happen anywhere, at any time, perhaps more so when history is distorted and denied.
Only God's Word is Reliable
"By two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us: (Hebrews 6:18 RVIC).
Today we see throughout the world the good and bad of media, both public and private. While it is difficult to keep things hidden (Luke 8:17), it is easy to omit facts or to alter images to present a biased viewpoint. Reporting is often distorted to support a particular viewpoint. Each imagines their own cause to be so important that there is little tolerance, if not outright animosity expressed publicly, for those who do not support it. Sadly, this can sometimes result in tragedy. If ever there was a time in the history of the world which called for calm and unbiased reasoning on the part of all, it is now. But mere reasoning, no matter how intelligent, can never bring hope to anyone unless there can be found some dependable foundation upon which reason may be based.
Through biblical truth alone do we find comfort? In God's Word, we find dependable truth, reason, and a far more comforting message. How much need there is today that our faith is based upon a firm foundation of reason and truth, for we are confronted with many confusing paradoxes. The history of scripture and the promises of Jehovah are true and undistorted (Hebrews 6:18). Heavenly truth never changes. We cannot stop the rush of a selfish world toward the precipice of destruction, but we can tell as many as will listen that God is soon to establish a new world where truth and righteousness will reign. Thus we are ambassadors of the new kingdom and say unto Zion, "Thy God reigneth!" (Isaiah 52:7).

The Association Between Play Fighting and Information Gathering during Subsequent Contests
Jennifer E. Weller*, Simon P. Turner, Marianne Farish, Irene Camerlink, Gareth Arnott
Many hypotheses regarding the evolution of social play have been suggested, including the development of later-life assessment skills. However, the link between play fighting experience and information gathering during contests has yet to be examined. This paper explores the association between play fighting and contest assessment strategy in the domestic pig (Sus scrofa). Using an established framework, we provide evidence suggesting play fighting frequency may affect the extent to which individuals incorporate information regarding their own and their competitors' resource holding potential (RHP) in escalation decisions. Pigs were allocated as 'high play' or 'low play' based upon their relative play fighting frequency. To maximise variation in play, 12 litters underwent a socialisation treatment while the remaining 12 litters were kept isolated within their home pen (i.e. control treatment). At eight weeks of age contests were staged between pairs of unfamiliar pigs, using 19 'high play' dyads and 19 'low play' dyads. While 'high play' dyads were observed to rely on a pure self-assessment strategy, 'low play dyads' did not meet the predictions of either self- or mutual assessment, suggesting their contest behaviour may have been motivated by alternative factors. We suggest that early life play fighting may therefore allow individuals to develop an accurate estimate of their RHP.

Middlesbrough's George Friend: Set to miss next game.
Tony Pulis told his Middlesbrough players it is down to them to revive their fading play-off hopes after suffering a sixth successive Championship defeat.
The last time Boro lost six games in a row was November, 2000 when they were a Premier League team and Saturday's 3-1 loss at Swansea left them four points outside the top six.
Boro did at least end almost six-and-a-half hours without scoring with a consolation effort from George Saville after Swans goals from Matt Grimes (penalty), Wayne Routledge and Connor Roberts.
"I was really disappointed with the first half," said Pulis. "I just thought the way we played it wasn't until five minutes into the second half that we got hold of the game.
"Even then, Swansea caused us problems on the break. Out of all the games we had left this season this was the one I was more worried about than all the others.
"Don't forget they were a Premier League side last season. The players didn't perform to the level they are capable of and have just got to pick themselves up. We've had a good chat about it and it's not about me believing we can make the play-offs, it's up to the players.
To add to Pulis's worries, George Friend picked up a hip injury that could see him miss tomorrow night's trip to Bolton.
Swansea City: Nordfeldt, Roberts, van der Hoorn (Rodon 79), Carter-Vickers, Naughton, Byers, Grimes, Dyer, Celina, James (Narsingh 69), Routledge (Asoro 68). Unused substitutes: McBurnie, Benda, McKay, Fulton.
Middlesbrough: Randolph, Fry, Ayala, Flint, Friend (Shotton 32), Saville, Downing, Clayton (Fletcher 55), Mikel, Howson, Hugill (Assombalonga 55). Unused substitutes: Konstantopoulos, McNair, Tavernier, Besic.


"With 42% of students dropping out of our local high school, we can't stand idle. We must act now to engage, educate and empower our teens."
Club donors awarded more than $45,000 in college scholarships this past year to Club and staff members.
The Wise Family Scholarship Foundation was established in 2008 by former Boys & Girls Club of Venice Board President, Michael Wise. Mr. Wise is currently a partner at JH Snyder Company in Los Angeles. The foundation awards four annual $2,000 merit based scholarships each June.
The David C. Mandell "In His Footsteps" Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in 2009 through the Boys & Girls Club of Venice in commemoration of the Club's 40th anniversary and honoring David C. Mandell as the Founder and First Executive Director of Boys & Girls Club of Venice. Faye Mandell, the widow of David Mandell, their daughter, Arielle Mandell, along with friends established this scholarship fund. The "In His Footsteps" Memorial scholarship will be awarded to local high school seniors who demonstrate effort, determination, and a commitment to working and partnering with other cultures toward positive goals.

If you usually have long days of hard work, then you understand just how important eating well is to staying revitalized. Food has a significant impact on how productive you are at work. The same concept applies to service animals. Considering the difficulty of the activities that service dogs help us with, it's only fair that we give them high-quality dog food.
These animals have been incredibly supportive and loyal as far back as the 1600s. Some of the tasks that service dogs are trained for include: law enforcement, herding, hunting, sledding, agility competitions and shows. So, what is the best diet for dogs that are service animals?
Although there are certain commercial feeds tailored for working dogs, these animals are not all the same, which means they will have different nutritional needs. Ideally, you should customize your dog's diet to the load of work he performs.
Water is without a doubt, one of the most crucial nutrients for a service dog's diet. Failing to give your pet sufficient amounts of water can lead to dehydration. Unlike humans, dogs do not sweat so as to regulate their body temperatures. These creatures lose water through two main parts: their tongues when they pant and the pads on their feet through evaporation.
Whenever they engage in high-intensity activities, your pooch generates a considerable amount of heat, which in turn, increases respiratory water loss by 10 to 20 times. If you plan to engage your pooch in a vigorous activity such as hunting, ensure that he has ready access to water. This way, he won't get dehydrated in the middle of the task and leave you high and dry.
Providing sufficient amounts of water to your working dog has other benefits such as ensuring stable blood flow and boosting his working capacity.
The energy requirements for service dogs vary widely among different breeds. This will depend on several factors such as level of training, type of activity and weather. However, every service dog needs a diet rich in calories and other nutrients. There's a stronger correlation between the energy needs of dogs and the distance they travel than there is between the dog's energy requirements and the speed at which he moves. For example; a sled dog that travels very long distances will use up more energy than one that races for 500 meters.
Apart from the type of activity, the weather is another factor that determines just how many calories your service dog needs. When the temperatures are too high or too cold, your pooch will have more craving for calorie-containing foods.
Ideally, these working dogs need 1.5 to 2 times more energy than their non-working colleagues. Beyond providing energy, fat boosts the absorption of certain nutrients in your dog.
Another reason that makes fat a crucial nutrient for service dogs in burning more fatty acids as well as boosting their capacity to perform at high levels.
Service dogs also need higher amounts of carbohydrates than non-working ones. Racing dogs such as Vizslas may not require high-calorie dog foods. They, however, require energy in form of short bursts. Unfortunately, fat cannot provide these short busts which is where carbohydrate-rich dog foods come in handy.
Carbohydrates give your pooch a quick source of energy like the one obtained from the glycogen stores in their bodies. Glycogen is a form of energy stored in the body. Unfortunately, the amount of glycogen is limited; hence, the need to substitute it with carbohydrate-rich dog food sources.
For sprinting dogs like greyhounds, at least 25% of their diets should be made up of carbohydrates. Non-sprinting dog breeds can do with 10% of a carbohydrate-based diet.
Another nutrient that service dogs require is high-quality protein. These creatures use essential amino acids like valine, tryptophan, and methionine to repair their muscles and tissues as well as in synthesizing hormones. A highly-active service dog should be fed between 30 and 35% of crude protein.
Proteins present in grains are not recommended for service dogs. The reason for this is that such pet food is harder to digest. Grain-based proteins also tend to provide gastrointestinal (GI) fill, which causes your dog to be less productive.
However, you should be careful when choosing protein sources for your service dogs. Steer clear of meat by-products and meals as they have the lowest protein content. They are also difficult to digest and have very low value. Instead, you should go for foods such as eggs, fish and real meat.
For one, you must make sure not to overfeed your service animal with treats and table foods. Seeing your furry friend work so hard during tasks can tempt you into giving him treats and rewards. But this is not advisable since they tend to have very high amounts of calories. Dog treats can have up to 20% more than their daily calorie requirements.
Secondly, it's not wise to feed your service right before or after a strenuous activity. If you feed your dog during these times, you put him at a risk of multiple digestive problems ranging from diarrhea to stomach discomforts. Experts recommend feeding athletic dogs just two times in a day. The best time to feed your service animal is an hour or so after major activities.
Finally, you should never make drastic changes to your dog's diet. If you plan to introduce a new food or decrease his intake of a particular nutrient, do this gradually. This way, his digestive system has ample time to adjust to the new intake.
Service dogs have unique nutritional needs. The best diet for dogs that are service animals is one rich in carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. If your dog's level of activity decreases, high chances are that you're not feeding him right. Whether you decide to feed him a plant-based or meat-based diet, ensure that he gets sufficient amounts of the recommended nutrients.

Te Radar (born Andrew J. Lumsden) is a New Zealand comedian and television personality.
Lumsden studied law at the University of Otago, but abandoned his original course of study to take up drama. He adapted his original nickname of "Radar", adding the Maori Te ("The") to the front for added distinction.
Te Radar's comedy often focuses on his interests in travel and history, and as a result his work has led to him presenting radio travel documentaries for Radio New Zealand. His 2004 radio show Dispatches from the Holy Lands, chronicling his travels through the Arab-Israeli conflict resulted in the Television New Zealand documentary War Tourist – Christmas in Bethlehem. In 2006 Te Radar fronted a three-part documentary Hidden in the Numbers, which examined the changing face of New Zealand culture. This was followed by two further television series, Off the Radar and Homegrown. Off the Radar saw Te Radar's attempt at sustainable living, spending ten months working on a small allotment. The show rated highly, and led to the publication on an accompanying book. The series was followed by a sequel, Radar's Patch, which won the 2010 award for Best Information/Lifestyle programme.

Precious Metals for Prescient People
Howard Myers Report
John Duling Report
Previous 2010 Testing Program
Previous Sales
This site is owned and operated by the Cariboo Placers Mining & Exploration Company and is geared toward promoting the sale of placer ground.
THE FOLLOWING PROPERTY IS…WAS FOR SALE.
I hope to have more ground to sell at a later date. Thanks.
Three Contiguous placer cells along the North slope of Tregillus Creek valley. This 58.17 ha/144 acre property is located at 12 km along the 2400 Road also known as the Beaver Pass road. The 2400 Road branches off the Barkerville Hwy at the 50 km marker sign heading east from Quesnel, B.C. The road is a major logging road as well as a mining road and is normally open year round.
Travel north up the 2400 Road 16 km to where the "F" Road turns off to the left. Travel approximately 1 km and just after crossing Tregillus Creek one comes to anther branch road on the left. It's not marked with a name. Follow that road and proceed in a westerly direction back up the valley on the North side of the creek. The 3 cells are approximately 4 km from the turn off.
All the roads in the area are former logging roads and have hard gravel surfaces. (***PLEASE NOTE: During winter months the roads running up the north side of the valley from the "F" Road are NOT PLOWED and remain impassible until the late spring which, in this area, comes around the end of April/beginning of May).
The Google Earth map below in green shows the layout of the area.
The 3 properties have never been mined and only became accessible after the area was logged off approximately 15 years ago. The ground has been held by Cariboo Placers Mining & Exploration Co. for the past 10 years.
A very small testing program was carried out in the Fall of 2015 on Tenure # 1053901 for assessment purposes. It's important to understand that the 3 cells are contiguous which means that they are connected together by at least 1 side to each other. What that means is that any assessment work done on any of the 3 cells can be applied to ALL 3 cells in order to keep them up to date.
There is a good year round creek that flows down through Tenures 1053901 and 1053899 and empties into Tregillus Creek providing an ample water supply for up to 6″+ hoses. There are also areas of flat land for the setting up of camps and wash plants and storing equipment.
A large outcropping of bedrock where the road crosses the creek on Tenure 1053901 is shown in the photos below.
The Northern side of the valley beginning where Langford Lake ends and Tregillus Creek begins flowing eastward to eventually join the Willow River at 18 km is known for its fine gold which is some of the highest quality in the Cariboo Gold Region (averaging 92% purity). One of the major creeks running down from the northern slope and emptying into Tregillus Creek right below the dam where the lake ends is called Oro Fino Creek (meaning "fine gold") for this very reason.
The following photos show the area around where the road ends in Tenure # 1053901 and where the small test site took place in 2015.
All Photos Below Taken on Tenure #1053901

Test site next to creek. The gas can and bucket are where the hose goes down to the creek.
Test site looking to the west.
Test results from the 1 cubic metre of gravel indicate a good showing of gold.
Magnetics (which contain other valuable PMG minerals like Platinum, Rhodium, Palladium, etc.) are also present in the gravels along the North slopes. The photo above was taken during an earlier work program back in 2012 by Cariboo Placers & Mining Co. 1 km in on the road leading to the 3 cells. An abundance of black sands plus what is shown on the magnet were removed during final recovery after a day's operation.

The creek exiting on south side of road.

Another photo also showing Quartz veins.
More bedrock with Quartz.
Quartz boulders abound throughout the ground. Quartz is considered to be an indicator rock when it comes to gold mining and there is a lot of indication on these cells that the potential for gold recovery is very promising.
A photo taken to the west of the test site near the bush. Remains of the logging are present as well as rock protruding from the ground. There's little overburden before one hits the gravel and clay is rarely found in the area.
Another view looking to the East. The valley on the far side of the light green logged off area is where the Willow River comes down from Wells after leaving the Jack 'O Clubs Lake.
A view looking to the south. The timber line at the bottom fronts Tregillus Creek as it flows in an easterly direction to connect up with the Willow River at the 18 km mark on the 2400 Road.
A closer view of the lower sections of the two cells 1053901 and 1053899. While there is some relatively steep sections in places there are benches with plenty of level land as well for setting up camps and equipment. The lower half of Tenure 1053899 visible in the bottom next to the pine and spruce trees has ample ground that's suitable for parking or camping or setting up a wash plant.
Tregillus Creek flows out of Langford Lake and empties into the Willow River. As one can see there is an abundance of clean water suitable for washing any amount of pay gravel that can be processed.
Asking price for the 3 cells is $9000.00

Document:Nationalists, Jews and the Ukrainian Crisis: Some Historical Perspective
Historical analysis of the conflicting roles of Ukrainian nationalism and the Jewish population/interests in the country.

The historical racial, national and religious/cultural loyalties of the Ukrainian population, together with its divided loyalties in both 20th century world wars make for a horrendously complex situation that, as ever is being reduced to simplistic soundbites and ruthlessly exploited by the US-UK-NATO powers. This article, though written from a perspective of sympathy with Ukrainian nationalist forces which so-called "Progressive" opinion in the West characterise as "neo-nazi", is nonetheless a useful summary of the complexities.
★ Start a Discussion about this document
Recent days have seen several comments touching on the allegedly fascist or anti-Semitic leanings of Ukrainian nationalists involved in the revolution. Most recently, Vladimir Putin has stated that the revolutionaries are a band of "fascists" and "reactionary anti-Semitic forces" that have gone "on a rampage." Commentators remain divided on whether Putin truly believes Ukraine to be on the cusp of a fascist takeover, or whether this is simply an excuse for Russian military intervention in Crimea. Nonetheless, despite the ambiguous nature of the nationalist coalition, Abraham Foxman, still lingering at ADL headquarters and still apoplectic at any sign of nationalism among Whites, recently took to the pages of the Huffington Post to assert that "the Ukrainian Jewish community is nervous," and urged the new government to "reassure" Ukrainian Jews.
Foxman and many news outlets have singled out the Svoboda party, and other groups and individuals within the loose alliance of nationalists, as being particularly concerning. Since many of these individuals and groups (as well as their attitudes towards Jews, multiculturalism, and the West) are likely to be unfamiliar to Western readers, what I hope to achieve in this article is to provide an historical overview and some analysis of the trends in Ukrainian nationalism. It is hoped that this might aid the development of a clearer understanding of events in Ukraine from a Western White Nationalist perspective.
Ukrainian nationalism has always had to struggle for free expression. Ukrainian lands have been the subject of incursions from Poles, Turks, Cossacks and Russians since at least the seventeenth-century, and in the eighteen-century these lands were divided between the Russian Empire and Austria. Even today, scholars Andres Umland and Anton Shekhovtsov have noted that "present day Western Ukraine belongs to the Central rather than to the East European context, and in some ways resembles the Baltic countries more closely than it does other former Soviet republics."[1] Advertisement
During the mid-1700s Ukrainian society, still overwhelmingly rural, witnessed several serious outbreaks of inter-ethnic violence, with most actions targeting Jews and Poles who were seen as exploitative, foreign elites. Ukrainian nationalism only began to find its voice, following modernization and industrialization, in the mid-nineteenth-century, beginning with the writings of intellectuals like the poet Taras Shevchenko (1814–1861) and the political theorist Mykhailo Drahomanov (1841–1895). Even at this early stage, the centre of the nationalist movement was in Western Ukraine, in Austrian Galicia.
Because of the division of Ukraine, Ukrainians entered World War I on both sides. Those in Austrian Galicia fought for the Austro-Hungarian Empire under the banner of the Central Powers, while those under Russian control fought for the Imperial Russian Army under the Triple Entente. As the war came to an end, several empires collapsed, among them both the Russian and Austrian Empires. Amidst the chaos of the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917, a Ukrainian national movement for self-determination emerged. The scene of almost unceasing violent conflict between 1917 and 1920, several distinct Ukrainian states were formed from varying portions of the Ukrainian lands, with equally varying levels of allegiance to Bolshevism, ending only in 1921 with the absorption of most of Ukraine by the Soviet Union, and the remainder by Poland and Romania.
From the very beginning of the Bolshevik incursion into Ukraine, an ethnic dimension in the struggle for control of Ukrainian lands was apparent. Writing in the Journal of Nationalism and Ethnicity, Marco Carynnk points out that by 1920 Ukraine had "perhaps the largest Jewish population in the world." [2] The influence of Jews in Ukrainian lands, hitherto restricted to the monopolization of numerous trades, was given an enormous boost by the invasion of the Red Army, which was directed in many instances by Russian-Jewish commissars. Scholar Sergei Pavliuchenkov has asserted that "any serious analysis of the history of communism and in particular of the Russian revolution unavoidably raises the so-called Jewish Question."[3] Pavliuchenkov points out that one of the earliest factors in the development of an explicitly ethnic dimension to Ukrainian nationalism was anti-Bolshevism and "the participation by representatives of the Jewish population in the establishment of Soviet power in the beginning of 1919 and its contradictions with the overwhelming majority of the region's indigenous inhabitants."[4]
In fact, communism in Ukraine was utterly dominated by Jews. Pavliuchenkov states that by the beginning of 1919, "the Soviet and Party organs created [in Western Ukraine] were wholly staffed by Jews."[5] A report written by an official from the Food Department of the Moscow Soviet, following a visit to Ukraine in early 1919, recounted that "since everyone feels certain that all power is in the hands of the Jews, anti-Semitism is becoming even stronger amongst the population. Throughout the whole population the only thing one hears is that they 'won't bow to yid power.'"[6]
According to the author of the report, Ukrainian and Russian Jews, working in tandem, were acting ruthlessly as "speculators in food supply," and had ensured that "virtually all surviving private trade is in their hands." The report concluding by remarking that Jews
"enjoy considerable protection from the authorities and this enables them to play a dominating role in food supply operations, in the purchase and dispatch of goods, in raising prices and generally in the food question. And since the food question in the Ukraine is becoming ever more acute by the day and prices are being inflated, it is understandable that all hatred for the crisis falls on those ill-fated Jews."[7]
A wave of violence against Jews broke out across Ukraine in May 1919. Similar to some of my remarks on the nineteenth-century "pogroms", Pavliuchenkov noted that historians have tended to focus on the violence itself rather than attempting to place it in some kind of context or subject it to deeper analysis — which would inevitably bring a Jewish role to light. Pavliuchenkov states that "as a rule…the literature about them simply notes the fact of these pogroms without going into the reasons why they occurred."[8]
Undeterred, and undistracted, by mainstream historical accounts of anti-Jewish violence being provoked by some kind of irrational cultural "disease," Pavliuchenkov consulted Soviet censorship archives and analyzed hundreds of contemporary letters from ordinary Ukrainians expressing their dissatisfaction with Soviet rule. The results were overwhelming in their consistency, with one letter explaining that "Soviet power is being criticized for the fact that its representatives are in most cases Jews," and another complaining that "everybody has been reduced to poverty except the Jews; they're better dressed than us, they eat a hundred times better than us." [9]
As the riots and insurgencies against Jewish Bolshevism gained pace and intensity, thousands of Jewish commissars fled to Moscow by any available means. Moscow responded to the crisis by drawing up proposals intended to improve Soviet standing in Ukraine by defusing the ethnic element to anti-Bolshevism in the country. This was to be done by removing Jews from influential commissar positions in Ukraine and replacing them with Russians, and also by conscripting Jewish communists into the Red Army as simple soldiers "because up to now there haven't been any Jewish communist rank-and-file soldiers in the Red Army." [10]
These proposals were seen as important because the Russian Soviets were preparing for a second invasion attempt at the end of 1919, having been defeated by Ukrainian nationalists under Symon Petliura in the spring of that year. Indicative of the extent of Jewish power in the Moscow Soviet, these decisions to reduce the Jewish presence were "not fully implemented," and Pavliuchenkov was able to discover that in the list of leading commissars and Soviet officials drawn up to accompany the second invasion (December, 1919–January, 1920), "30 out of 47 people were clearly of Jewish nationality." [11]
The problem remained sufficiently endemic for Lenin to be personally handed a note during the Communist Party conference in Warsaw in September 1920, complaining that "the filling of Party and Soviet organizations with workers of Jewish extraction" in Ukraine was causing "extreme dissatisfaction" among the Ukrainian peasantry.[12] By 1921, Ukrainian communism was itself fractured along ethnic lines as Ukrainian communists bristled against the realization that Bolshevism in the country was dominated by Jews. The result, argues Pavliuchenkov was "sharp warfare at all levels of the party-state apparatus" as Ukrainians fought to take back control from Jewish commissars.[13]
As Jews and communist Ukrainians wrestled for control, outside the Bolshevik halls of power Ukrainian nationalists were fragmented into half a dozen groupings and were relatively ineffectual. By the mid-1920s, they began to loosely affiliate with one another, and were able to form stronger bonds following the assassination of Symon Petliura (who had led the defeat of the first Soviet invasion) in Paris in 1926.
Petliura had been assassinated by Sholom Schwartzbard, a Russian Jew and habitual criminal. Schwartzbard, who now has several streets in Israel named after him, claimed that Petliura had led "pogroms" in Ukraine, during which several of his family members had been killed. Two emergent Ukrainian nationalist journals, Surma and Rozbudova natsii, helped unify the cause by defending Petliura and condemning the fact that "all of Israel" had leaped to defend Schwartzbard. One account in Surma stated that at Schwartzbard's trial
"there came to the surface not only the shared Jewish blood, which tells every Jew to defend his co-religionist … but also the Jewish ethic that orders Jews to use any means to obtain their ends."[14]
Another Surma article pointed out that
"Jewish behavior toward the Ukrainian population" had "engendered the hatred of the Ukrainian population for the Jews," and added that "instead of engaging in theatrical poses and shedding tears, the Jews and the defenders and supporters of Schwartzbard should have beaten themselves on the chest and accepted part of the responsibility for the pogroms." [15]
Such appeals to reason, of course, went unheeded, and an unrepentant Schwartzbard was acquitted and remains the object of Jewish hero-worship until this very day.
The incident proved to be a galvanizing force for Ukrainian nationalism. By the late 1920s it was clear that they were facing overwhelming odds and would have to join forces. In January 1929, the groups united as the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) under Colonel Ievhen Konovalets, and concentrated their activities in Western Ukraine. The OUN, which engaged in acts of terrorism and violence as well as disseminating nationalist ideology, described itself as
"an integral nationalist movement that set itself the goal of driving Polish landowners and officials out of eastern Galicia and Volhynia, joining hands with Ukrainians in other countries, and establishing an independent state."[16]
In preparation for the first OUN congress, Konovalets wrote that the new nationalist government would
"coordinate the cultural process with the spiritual nature of the Ukrainian people and its historical traditions, and eradicate the evil consequences of foreign enslavement in the fields of culture and the national psyche. … In addition to a number of external enemies Ukraine also has an internal enemy … Jewry and its negative consequences for our liberation cause can be liquidated only by an organized collective effort."[17]
Shortly after the first OUN conference, a leading OUN ideologist wrote that the harm wrought by Jews upon Ukraine was so extensive that "there was no need to list all the injuries that Jews caused Ukrainians." [18]
The pages of Rozbudova natsii played host to much comment on the role of Jews in Soviet Ukraine. One nationalist journalist, Makar Kushnir, wrote that "the dictatorship of the proletariat in Soviet Ukraine is putting power in the hands of a Russian and Jewish minority and preventing the Ukrainian majority from defending its economic and cultural interests." [19] At the OUN congress, Kushnir had argued that "Russians and Jews had taken over the economy and the masses considered the government to be alien." [20]
OUN member and editor of both Surma and Rozbudova natsii in the late 1920s and early 1930s, Volodymyr Martynets published a special article in 1938 on "The Jewish Problem in Ukraine," which was later circulated as a separate reprint by the OUN. In it, Martynets wrote that
"our Jews are from a political perspective a hostile element, from a socio-economic perspective parasitic, from a cultural and national perspective harmful, from a moral and ideological perspective corruptive … and from a racial perspective unsuitable for mixing and assimilation."[21]
Although never a member of the OUN, Dmytro Dontsov was considered by many Ukrainian nationalists as "their spiritual father." Initially a socialist, Dontsov came to believe that democracy, humanism, and socialism had all been compromised, and that the only answer "was a sharp turn to the right." [22] After Schwartzbard's assassination of Petliura, Dontsov wrote that "we have to and we will fight against the aspiration of Jewry to play the inappropriate role of lords in Ukraine." [23]
For a number of reasons, 1939 proved to be a significant year in the history of Ukrainian nationalism. That year the OUN held its Second Great Congress in Rome, and elected to replace Konovalets with Andrii Mel'nyk, upon whom was bestowed the title "Vozhd" or "Leader." That same year however, a young Ukrainian nationalist named Stepan Bandera (who is the subject of much discussion in current news coverage), was released from a Polish prison following the German occupation of Western Poland. Bandera refused to accept Mel'nyk as leader and formed him own nationalist organization under the same name but known commonly as OUN (B) or OUN-Bandera. The two factions subsequently fought each other bitterly and violently until in August 1940 Bandera wrote to Mel'nyk offering a truce and to accept his role as leader on one condition — that he take action on the fact that a number of leaders in the OUN had Jewish wives, if not suspected Jewish origins themselves.[24]
Bandera's approach was unsuccessful. In April 1941 OUN (B) held a congress in Krakow at which a resolution was passed stating that
"the Jews in the USSR constitute the most dedicated support for the ruling Bolshevik regime and the vanguard of Russian imperialism in Ukraine. … The Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists combats Jews as supporters of the Russian Bolshevik regime."[25]
Carried away with the prospect of German support following Germany's surprise attack on the Soviet Union, OUN (B) leaders issued proclamations of a new independent Ukrainian state on June 30th 1941. Unimpressed, given their wish to reduce Ukrainians to the status of serfs, German authorities began arresting OUN leaders and started cracking down on the OUN more generally.
Hunted and executed if caught by both Soviets and Germans, the Third Great Congress of OUN-Bandera was held in August 1943 on an isolated stretch of fields in the northern stretches of the Ternopil region. The meeting revolved around the defeat of German forces at Stalingrad. In a fit of warped logic, the 25 members present concluded that Britain and America would soon declare war on the Soviet Union, with or without Germany by their side. Believing, somewhat bizarrely, that Jews in Washington and London would be crucial in bringing about the alliance against the Soviet Union, these leaders of OUN-Bandera decided to appease their would-be comrades by changing its policy on national minorities and stressing the "equality of all citizens." [26]
Two months later OUN-Bandera leaders began drawing up lists and accounts absolving Ukrainians of having participated in any anti-Jewish/anti-commissar actions. In 1944, with the Red Army now firmly in control of Western Ukraine, regional OUN-Bandera leaders issued orders that "no actions against Jews are to be carried out." [27] Despite its new "Jew-friendly" policy, OUN-Bandera was emphatically proscribed by Soviet authorities. The majority of those in the OUN, or its later incarnation, the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, were forced to live abroad. In Soviet Ukraine itself, all attempts to revive right-wing thought, even on the smallest levels, were suppressed by the police and the KGB.[28]
Ukrainian nationalism was then essentially absent from the country until perestroika. In 1990, the first ultra-right groups in decades began appearing. In 1990 the Ukrainian National Assembly was established in Lviv, and began conducting torchlight processions through the city the following year. Despite attracting media attention for its clashes with left-wingers, pro-Russian forces, and the police, there was little electoral success. Another nationalist group to emerge in the 1990s was the Congress of Ukrainian Nationalists (CUN). More than any other nationalist grouping, CUN could claim to be the direct heir to OUN-Bandera, given that it was composed of several former OUN exiles. Unlike the Ukrainian National Assembly, CUN had some success in the 1997 pre-term elections, and CUN leader Ianoslava Stets'ko became a deputy in the Ukrainian parliament. The CUN later aligned itself with Viktor Yuschenko's 'Our Ukraine' bloc, in return for getting three deputies into parliament in 2002 and 2006, but afterwards fell into disarray and abandoned elections altogether.
The third significant nationalist party of the 1990s was the Social-National Party of Ukraine (SNPU). With no obvious links to OUN-Bandera at all, the SNPU had been formed by a significantly younger cadre than the CUN. It was established in 1991 by Iaraslav Adrushkiv, Andrii Parubi, and Oleh Tiahnybok, who until 1994 was also chairman of the Lviv Student Fraternity. Initially based on the public organization of veterans of the Soviet war in Afghanistan, the group soon adopted black uniforms and formed "people's detachments" which protested outside parliament. In 2004, the SNPU changed its name and image, now calling itself All-Ukrainian Union — Svoboda.
It is Svoboda which is currently the subject of the greatest amount of hysterical press attention. Although it failed to achieve an immediate union of right-wing conservative parties in 2005, by 2009 the part was demonstrating an "as yet insignificant but stable growth in popularity."[29] In keeping with the history of Ukrainian nationalism, Svoboda is a Western Ukrainian entity, and its successes are disproportionately located there. Scholars Andres Umland and Anton Shekhovtsov have pointed out that levels of ethnocentrism are higher in Western Ukraine, and that "xenophobic ideas are strongest amongst pro-Western Western Ukrainians and the younger generation of Ukrainians as a whole."[30] Writing in September 2013, Umland and Shekhovtsov pointed out that improvements in the Ukrainian economy have begun to attract non-traditional, non-White migrants from China, Vietnam, Pakistan and Afghanistan, adding that "it is easy to guess that the rapidly rising Svoboda will probably gain most from this situation."[31] Svoboda has a strong conception of Ukraine as a nation founded on ethnicity, and in the last elections took 10% of the vote. For this crime alone, last year the World Jewish Congress called on the EU to ban the party along with Greece's Golden Dawn.
Despite Foxman's cringe-worthy bleatings about Svoboda and the legacy of Stepan Bandera, the position of Jews in Ukraine is probably very secure, despite what could be considered reasonable grounds for anti-Jewish attitudes among the Ukrainian population. In addition to the rich historical context outlined in this article, Betsy Gidwitz, at the Jerusalem Centre for Public Affairs, points out the "disproportionately large role of Jewish oligarchs in Russian and Ukrainian economies," that "several Jews and half-Jews were prominent figures in the bank collapse and subsequent economic crises of the late 1990s," and that Ukraine's richest man is the Jew Viktor Pinchuk who
"was denounced by many of his compatriots as a robber baron who used his personal connections to snap up some of the most valuable assets in Ukraine for a song during the post-Soviet privatization wave while millions of his countrymen struggled to make ends meet."
At the time of writing, interesting developments are taking place in Ukraine. Andrii Parubi, one of the three founding members of Svoboda, has been made head of national security in the new government. Another Svoboda member now controls the ministry for agriculture. Most impressively, Svoboda member Oleksandr Sych has been made deputy Prime Minister. In total, there are now seven ministers in the Ukrainian government who can be deemed racially aware nationalists.
I think these developments warrant a deeper understanding and, obviously, our support.

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt officially filed for pre-packaged bankruptcy Monday morning, citing debts and liabilities of over $1 billion. The filing is part of a restructuring of its finances that will cut its debt by $3.1 billion largely by having its lenders exchange debt for equity.
The first publicly available filings provide little financial details, other than listing its largest unsecured creditors that include Donnelley, owed $20.3 million, while Donnelley Asia Printing Solutions is owed $5,6 million. Williams Lea, a business processing outsourcing firm, is owed just under $21 million. Other large unsecured creditors include Marshall Cavendish ($6.7 million), Kue Digital Inc. ($4.5 million), and the Bulkley Dunton Publishing Group ($4.1 million. to pursue growth opportunities.
As it said when it first announced plans for the prepackaged filing, HMH issued a statement today that said it "will maintain normal day-to-day business operations throughout the restructuring process, and we expect no disruptions to our relationships with our customers, agents, authors, employees, business partners and suppliers. Additionally, our plan provides for our suppliers and vendors to be paid in full during and after this process and for our employees to continue receiving their usual pay and benefits.
HMH said it still expects to complete the restructuring by the end of June 2012.

Docs perform tricky surgeries as mental disorders increase
Surgeons say the average lifespan has increased but people are suffering from more lifestyle diseases posing a challenge to doctors while wielding a scalpel.TNN | April 14, 2016, 13:18 IST
Chennai: Surgical techniques may have made rapid progress in the last decade, but surgeons are increasingly dealing with more complicated surgeries, with at least 70% of the patients landing on the operation theatre with comorbid conditions (multiple ailments).
Surgeons say the average lifespan has increased but people are suffering from more lifestyle diseases posing a challenge to doctors while wielding a scalpel.
While 70% of them suffer from conditions like diabetes, hypertension, cardiac and thyroid problems, at least 40% of them suffer from more than one co-morbid condition. What surgeons find even more unsettling is that many of them are unaware of the conditions they suffer from.
"It hints at two things - poor awareness among patients about lifestyle diseases - and lack of coordination between physicians and surgeons," said surgical gastroenterologist Dr S M Chandramohan.
In an effort to overcome these challenges surgeons and physicians in the city will come together this weekend to discuss the challenges and trends in managing medical problems in surgical patients.
Diabetes and hypertension are among the biggest challenge that surgeons face. "Especially because they bring with them a host of other problems like renal failure and heart ailments," said Dr Chandramohan.
In Chennai alone, diabetes incidence shot up tenfold in the past 30 years.
A study done by city-based Madras Diabetic Research Foundation, covering 26,000 individuals above the age of 20 showed that 20% of the subjects were diabetic. The incidence of diabetes in the city was 2% in 1970.
Surgeons said the final outcome of surgeries depends on the management of these lifestyles ailments.
"We also need to look at the kind of medication patients have been prescribed. For example, if they are on blood-thinners we can't operate on them for a certain period of time," said gastroenterologist Dr V Jayanthi of Global Hospitals. Surgeons also said they face problems during emergencies and stressed on the need for better coordination between physicians and surgeons.

Q: Probability that random variable B is greater than random variable A I would like to find the answer to the following question. A casino offers games with one of the following 21 p's  [0; 0.05; 0.10 .... 0.90; 0.95; 1] and one of the following 21 v's (values) [0; 5; 10 ... 90, 95, 100]. The person taking part in the game either wins the v or he gets nothing.
In sequence A, 98 games are offered. The total expected value (ev) of the 98 games is: 1785.75 euro. I assumed that the variance (var) could be computed by summing: ev * (v-ev). Thus, a game with a p of 0.5 and a v of 80 has an ev of 40 and a var of 1600. The total var is 31862.94.
In sequence  B, 98 other games with different p's and v's are offered. The total ev is 1276 euro and the total var is 48585.75.
I assume that both binomial probability distributions can be approximated with a normal distribution with means of 1785.75 and 1276 and sd's of 178.5019 and 220.4218 (square root of the variance).
I would like to know the probability based on the normal approximations that sequence B leads to more v than sequence A. The difference between the means is 509,75 euro which is between 2 and 3 sd's. I am not looking for very exact answers. I would just like to know how the probability that V(B) > V (A) can be approximated.

A: Estimating $\theta=P(A<B)$ where $A$ and $B$ are random variables is known as "stress-strength" models. In the normal case, $\theta$ is simply a function of the means and variances of $A$ and $B$:
$\theta=P(A<B) = \Phi\left(\dfrac{\mu_B-\mu_A}{\sqrt{\sigma_A^2+\sigma_B^2}}\right). (*)$
For a more detailed review check this book.
If you have samples from $A$ and $B$, then you can estimate $(\mu_A,\mu_B,\sigma_A,\sigma_B)$ using the sample mean and variances and then plug them into $(*)$. This will be the Maximimum Likelihood Estimator of $\theta$.
Best wishes.

Donna Huanca's 'Obsidian Ladder' is purposefully discomfiting, and almost too visceral and sensual to be absorbed fully in one go. Once you enter the cavernous main gallery of the Marciano Art Foundation, Huanca's multimedia installation of paintings, sculpture, performance, sound, and scent threaten to overwhelm your senses. The combination makes for an unnerving, unsettling experience that ostensibly explores femininity and gender, but whose impact only comes across as such when you know the whole context of the work and can appreciate the importance of its site.

IRON MARCH —
Members of violent white supremacist website exposed in massive data dump
Iron March went dark two years ago. Now a 1GB file exposes its dirty laundry.
Dan Goodin - Nov 8, 2019 1:25 am UTC
643 with 195 posters participating, including story author
Editor's note: this article discusses a hate group's uses of racist language that may be hard to read.
Private data for Iron March, a notorious website for violent white supremacists, has been published online in a stunning leak that exposes a trove of detailed information on as many as 1,000 or more members. The 1GB SQL database appears to contain the entirety of the site's information, including user names, private messages, public posts, registered email addresses, and IP addresses.
The leak was posted on the Internet Archive on Wednesday by an anonymous individual using the handle antifa-data. A list of domains used in email registrations shows two from US universities. Private messages show some members discussing life in the US Marines, Navy, Army, and military reserves.
"Be careful if you get deployed with those fucking sand [deleted] and jews," a user claiming to be in the Navy tells another member who says he's in the Marines and is about to be deployed. (The racist term he used has been deleted.) "They are all a bunch of slippery pieces of shit that wash their faces in rain puddles in dirt on the ground. We are too good to be interacting with those people, maybe trump will at least relax the ROE's [rules of engagement] so those pieces of shit can be blasted back to allah, jews and all."
To the right of the Alt-Right
According to the Southern Poverty Law Center and Rational Wiki, Iron March was launched in 2011 by Alexander "Slavros" Mukhitdinov, who is believed to be a Uzbekistani who emigrated to Russia. The fascist vision he espoused was critical even of the Alt-Right movement that gained visibility after the election of Donald Trump, the SPLC said, citing a review of more than 150,000 public Iron March posts it scraped from September 2011 to September 2017. The website went dark in 2017 for reasons that remain unknown.
Iron March was affiliated with or offered support to at least nine fascist groups in nine different countries over its six-year span. Several violent neo-Nazi paramilitary fascist groups were organized on the forums, including the Antipodean Resistance and the Atomwaffen Division. Members and associates of the groups and their offshoots have been connected to at least five murders documented by the SPLC and Rational Wiki.
Among the fatal attacks, both sources say, was the brutal 2017 murder of activist Heather Heyer in Charlottesville, Virginia, on August 12, 2017. During the incident, James Alex Fields rammed his car into her after she had protested a "Unite the Right" rally. Fields, the SPLC said, had marched at the rally as a member of a group called Vanguard America, which descended from another Iron March group.
While the SPLC had already obtained all or at least most of Iron March's public posts, the trove posted Wednesday is sure to offer a much more complete, and likely incriminating, picture of one of the Internet's most sordid forums. The ability for researchers, law enforcement investigators, and others to cross-reference IP addresses, email addresses, and private and public posts is likely to shine a bright light into a nether region that thrives on darkness.
The open source journalism collective Bellingcat has already established a forum for people to collaborate on research.

I have a different take: It was right to steal this data, but it should've been turned over to law enforcement, not published. These people actually killed a woman, on American soil. I'm sure the FBI or another law enforcement agency would have been interested in this data, and they probably could wield it much more effectively against the Nazis if it was not public knowledge.
(I have zero sympathy for the privacy argument. This is a domestic terror group. The FBI hacks those sorts of people all the damn time. At worst, this is a case of vigilantism, which may have undermined law enforcement's work as I described above, but not a privacy violation.)

Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses
While I agree that normally law enforcement would be the correct choice, unfortunately law enforcement has been known to be infiltrated by these very same organizations since at least 2006.
Now, why do I say that? Well, you're 100% right that this is the sort of thing the FBI tracks as a legitimate, and useful, duty.
Basically - and especially forpoor folks, people of color, people of differing sexual orientation, and very often people of leftward politics - the police are likely to aid and protect the fascists doing bad things. This is seen periodically in Seattle, though to be fair, the Seattle PD has long been known to have a cozy relationship with far right/fascist groups, but is also apparent more or less around the U.S.
In short: I'd love to be able to give law enforcement agencies full trust. That'd be really nice. Unfortunately, civilian intelligence operations like this appear to be necessary. Law enforcement is heavily infiltrated by at best, or is a natural ally of at worst, domestic right-wing terrorists.
There is a serious trust problem that needs to be addressed at every level of government regarding law enforcement. If any of us are suffering injustice - especially the most vulnerable and marginalized amongst us - we are all in jeopardy. Any of us are just one freak accident away from being vulnerable.
In any event, from an ethical perspective, if even one of us is a ready target for those who claim to be guardians to fail to be that, that means that our society is inherently unjust at a systemic level.
EDIT: Forgot the poor. I can't believe I did; here in Austin, the poor are commonly a target of law enforcement operations, especially our homeless neighbors. I mean, it's not enough that we've systemically failed them; let's also throw them in irons. That'll help! /s.

To anyone who feels that doxxing these people is bad or feel conflicted about it, I'd suggest reading the Paradox of Tolerance, which in brief is:
The paradox of tolerance states that if a society is tolerant without limit, its ability to be tolerant is eventually seized or destroyed by the intolerant. Karl Popper described it as the seemingly paradoxical idea that, "In order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance."
I doubt if most of these people would mind getting doxxed. Perhaps they'd even feel proud to have their 15 seconds of fame (and a longer period of ignominy).
And Canadian, etc. It's an international forum.

So the method by which this information became available is probably illegal. Does this mean that the evidence would all be inadmissible in court? I mean, it would be one thing if the data was all just out there for anyone to gather (like leaving evidence in your garbage outside), but it sounds like this involved some sort of hack (someone breaking into your locked house).

While you're right from a legal perspective, the legal perspective isn't the only one that matters.
These sorts of vigilante actions are usually accompanied by an effort to disseminate that information to vulnerable communities - for instance, here in Austin over the summer, a Proud Boy organizer was discovered working at the AT&T Conference Center downtown; shortly after, not only were warning posters wheatpasted in high-visibility locations, the UT Autonomous Student Union even held a brief protest in the lobby of the center to attempt to raise awareness and have the person fired, on the grounds that as a terrorist organizer, he is directly making the community less safe by his very presence.
To my recollection, AT&T Conference Center did not fire the Proud Boy. If your organization is booking any conferences in Austin, it would be wise to bear that in mind, especially if you have people of non-European ethnicities attending.
In short: Even if this evidence is rendered legally invalid, it's very far from being useless. Communities can, and will, spread this sort of tactical information so that, through careful action and communication, they can defend themselves against terrorists like the aforementioned Proud Boy.
This does not necessarily lead to violence; indeed, the overwhelming amount of the time it does not. Violence, after all, is a failure of all other options. There is more than just circumstantial evidence, however, that info leaks like these have made communities that are historical targets of these terrorists safer, and have done much to damage these groups' effectiveness.

Almost certainly, as others have mentioned. There's several Australian law enforcement officers who were probably on there, such as the Victorian cop who was cleared of giving the "White Power" coded signal, despite being found as active on a White Supremacist forum. (Hell, it might have been this one, I haven't checked.)
Which is one of the problems. There's no guarantee, even if you go to law enforcement, that anything will actually be done. I'm hopeful that, given this information, law enforcement will actually act on it. Part of that is that we have to keep the pressure on them to act on these crimes.

Pol Pot has a similarity to a lot of these guys in that a lot of the people he had murdered were intellectuals and academics.

When your defense of someone is, "they haven't done anything explicitly illegal (yet)!", I think you may should step back a moment and consider what it is you're actually defending.
Generally speaking that "defense" lacks the strength that I think you think it has.

Passing of Prof. Vickie Frohne
April 27, 2015 • Categories: News
It is with great sadness that Holy Cross College announces the passing of faculty member, Dr. Vickie Frohne, following a brief illness.
Dr. Frohne, an associate professor of physics, joined the Holy Cross family from Benedictine University (IL) in August 2005. At the time of her death, she also served as an adjunct professor of physics at the University of Notre Dame, and as a scientist at Fermilab, near Chicago, IL.
Dr. Frohne was a respected teacher, mentor, colleague, and friend, and she will be missed.
