2016 was something of a banner year for male beauty. James Charles was announced as the first male brand ambassador for CoverGirl, propelled (along with a few of his fellow MUAs-in-training) by a million-plus Instagram following and social media's newfound fervor for makeup tutorials. But there's more where that came from. We've rounded up eight awesome male beauty Instagrammers who are poised to have a breakout year in 2017.
"I feel like no look is complete without false lashes," says Seattle-based beauty enthusiast Ryan Potter. It's a makeup mantra that comes through loud and clear in Ryan's candid YouTube tutorials and addictive Instagram feed. P.S. You heard it here first, boys — chokers are back in a big way.
Things Malik Alain does not need: highlighter, brow gel, lip gloss. The seemingly permanently contoured (permatoured?) model and Instagram influencer deserves a shout out for having what must be one hell of a skin care routine — and knowing how to always catch his light.
From lemon-lime eyeshadow to bold blue lips, 14-year-old (!) makeup aficionado Arieh Jacob has a way with avant-garde styles (and an eye for color coordination) you don't want to sleep on.
YouTuber (and pop star on-the-rise) Ben J. Pierce's winsome tutorials and candid Instagram account tackle everything from conformity to contouring — a masterful mix, indeed.
Jack Emory is a self-taught makeup "face doodler" and YouTuber whose work is inspiring on all fronts; his impactful #BlendTheHateAway video was viewed over 100,000 times on his Instagram page alone.
"You look like a young Jessica Alba!" exclaims one fan on makeup and visual artist Marcelo Gutierrez's addictive Instagram account. It's a look that hasn't gone unnoticed — Marcelo has worked with top industry talent and even appeared in campaigns for Marc Jacobs.


Sometimes you have to just jump right in and do it. When I think of planning a birthday party I usually think of finding a restaurant and having myself a nice meal with family and friends, opening a few humorous birthday cards or a gag gift or two. If I were to set some birthday goals, I would probably think of taking the day off and do something for myself. I know when I turned 50 years old there was little more than a reminder given to me that my father's birthday was coming up in two days. Oh, and the 4th of July falls in between the two of ours. Who could forget that?
Somewhere within social media I stumbled upon Dave Berman and his life-long friends Adrian and Andy, who are planning a celebratory birthday trip to the United States from their homes in the United Kingdom to ride highway 50 in the U.S. for their 50th birthdays. An epic journey in another country riding Indian motorcycles picked from the fleet at Eaglerider Motorcycle and Tours in Washington D.C. sounds pretty good to me. Hell, even the plane ride to get here and back would be a pretty special birthday present, but they are taking it a step further. Air travel is fine, but the real meat and potatoes is hopping on motorcycles and immersing themselves into this landscape we call America. What better way to see this country than from the seat of an iconic brand and mingling with the locals every chance you get? I can't think of any better way. And mingling is one of my favorite things to do.
Now I've taken a week-long ride on my motorcycle before and I know the importance of packing light. Along with the daily necessities and toiletries you must also carry a wide range of gear to counter inclement weather should you run into it. I also prefer to save a small portion of storage for anything else you find along the way that you just can't live without. We bikers are Master Packers.
We are just a few weeks away from the beginning of the 3 Amigo's trip. I'm to meet up with this band of birthday brothers around the 8th of May in Kansas City to ride along to Council Grove Kansas where they hope to spend the night. After all, I'm somewhat of a local. The next day, with their permission, I will tag along for a few miles and re-acquaint myself with western Kansas. I know this trip will be a memorable one for you guys and I appreciate you letting me be a small part of it . Who am I kidding? Hold on tight, it's going to be quite a ride.


Do you know the difference between mozzarella and burrata?
Did you know that Borges nuts are gluten free?
If you replace the croutons with a handful of boiled rice (brown rice if possible), you'll have a gluten-free version.


Aubrey Plaza ("Legion") and Brian Tyree Henry ("Atlanta") are reportedly both in negotiations to star in the upcoming contemporary remake of horror classic "Child's Play" at MGM.
The original 1988 movie followed a serial killer named Charles Lee Ray who casts a spell that traps his soul inside the body of a Good Guy doll named Chucky, which is then given to a young boy. The doll comes to life and starts killing people.
The new take is reportedly expected to follow a group of kids dealing with a technologically-advanced doll that has been re-programmed into a murderous machine by a disgruntled doll manufacturing employee.
Lars Klevberg ("Polaroid") helms from a script by Tyler Burton Smith ("Kung Fury 2") while David Katzenberg and Seth Grahame-Smith will produce. Filming begins shortly in Vancouver.

An ASP.NET HTTP handler is the process (frequently referred to as the "endpoint") that runs in response to a request made to an ASP.NET Web application. The most common handler is an ASP.NET page handler that processes .aspx files. When users request an .aspx file, the request is processed by the page through the page handler. You can create your own HTTP handlers that render custom output to the browser.
An HTTP module is an assembly that is called on every request that is made to your application. HTTP modules are called as part of the ASP.NET request pipeline and have access to life-cycle events throughout the request. HTTP modules let you examine incoming and outgoing requests and take action based on the request.
RSS feeds To create an RSS feed for a Web site, you can create a handler that emits RSS-formatted XML. You can then bind a file name extension such as .rss to the custom handler. When users send a request to your site that ends in .rss, ASP.NET calls your handler to process the request.
Image server If you want a Web application to serve images in a variety of sizes, you can write a custom handler to resize images and then send them to the user as the handler's response.
Security Because you can examine incoming requests, an HTTP module can perform custom authentication or other security checks before the requested page, XML Web service, or handler is called. In Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0 running in Integrated mode, you can extend forms authentication to all content types in an application.
Statistics and logging Because HTTP modules are called on every request, you can gather request statistics and log information in a centralized module, instead of in individual pages.
Custom headers or footers Because you can modify the outgoing response, you can insert content such as custom header information into every page or XML Web service response.
The IHttpHandler and IHttpModule interfaces are the starting point for developing handlers and modules.
The IHttpAsyncHandler interface is the starting point for developing asynchronous handlers.
Custom handler and module source code can be put in the App_Code folder of an application, or it can be compiled and put in the Bin folder of an application.
Handlers and modules developed for use in IIS 6.0 can be used in IIS 7.0 with little or no change. For more information, see Moving an ASP.NET Application from IIS 6.0 to IIS 7.0.
Modules can subscribe to a variety of request-pipeline notifications. Modules can receive notification of events of the HttpApplication object.
In IIS 7.0, the request pipeline is integrated with the Web server request pipeline. HTTP modules can be used for any request to the Web server, not just ASP.NET requests.
An ASP.NET HTTP handler is the process that runs in response to a request that is made to an ASP.NET Web application. The most common handler is an ASP.NET page handler that processes .aspx files. When users request an .aspx file, the request is processed by the page handler.
The ASP.NET page handler is only one type of handler. ASP.NET includes several other built-in handlers such as the Web service handler for .asmx files.
ASP.NET maps HTTP requests to HTTP handlers based on a file name extension. Each HTTP handler can process individual HTTP URLs or groups of URL extensions in an application. ASP.NET includes several built-in HTTP handlers, as listed in the following table.
The default HTTP handler for all ASP.NET pages.
The default HTTP handler for Web service pages created as .asmx files in ASP.NET.
The default HTTP handler for all Web handlers that do not have a UI and that include the @ WebHandler directive.
A handler that displays current page trace information. For details, see How to: View ASP.NET Trace Information with the Trace Viewer.
To create a custom HTTP handler, you create a class that implements the IHttpHandler interface to create a synchronous handler. Alternatively, you can implement IHttpAsyncHandler to create an asynchronous handler. Both handler interfaces require that you implement the IsReusable property and the ProcessRequest method. The IsReusable property specifies whether the IHttpHandlerFactory object (the object that actually calls the appropriate handler) can put the handler in a pool and reuse it to increase performance. If the handler cannot be pooled, the factory must create a new instance of the handler every time that the handler is needed.
The ProcessRequest method is responsible for processing individual HTTP requests. In this method, you write the code that produces the output for the handler.
HTTP handlers have access to the application context. This includes the requesting user's identity (if known), application state, and session information. When an HTTP handler is requested, ASP.NET calls the ProcessRequest method of the appropriate handler. The code that you write in the handler's ProcessRequest method creates a response, which is sent back to the requesting browser.
When you create a class file as your HTTP handler, the handler can respond to any file name extension that is not already mapped in IIS and in ASP.NET. For example, if you are creating an HTTP handler for generating an RSS feed, you can map your handler to the .rss file name extension. In order for ASP.NET to know which handler to use for your custom file name extension, in IIS you must map the extension to ASP.NET. Then in the application, you must map the extension to the custom handler.
By default, ASP.NET maps the file name extension .ashx to an HTTP handler. If you add the @ WebHandler directive to a class file, ASP.NET automatically maps the .ashx file name extension to the default HTTP handler. This is similar to the way ASP.NET maps the .aspx file name extension to the ASP.NET page handler when the @ Page directive is used. Therefore, if you create an HTTP handler class that has the file name extension .ashx, the handler is automatically registered with IIS and ASP.NET.
If you want to create a custom file name extension for a handler, you must explicitly register the extension with IIS and ASP.NET. The advantage of not using the .ashx file name extension is that the handler is then reusable for different extension mappings. For example, in one application the custom handler might respond to requests that end in .rss. In another application, it might respond to requests that end in .feed. As another example, the handler might be mapped to both file name extensions in the same application, but might create different responses based on the extension.
The process for registering a handler's custom file name extension is different in IIS 7.0 and in earlier versions of IIS. For more information, see How to: Register HTTP Handlers and How to: Configure an HTTP Handler Extension in IIS.
An HTTP handler can be either synchronous or asynchronous. A synchronous handler does not return until it finishes processing the HTTP request for which it is called. An asynchronous handler runs a process independently of sending a response to the user. Asynchronous handlers are useful when you must start an application process that might be lengthy and the user does not have to wait until it finishes before receiving a response from the server.
Asynchronous HTTP handlers enable you to start an external process, such as a method call to a remote server. The handler can then continue processing without waiting for the external process to finish. While an asynchronous HTTP handler is processing, ASP.NET puts the thread that would ordinarily be used for the external process back into the thread pool until the handler receives a callback from the external process. This can prevent thread blocking and can improve performance because only a limited number of threads can execute at the same time. If many users request synchronous HTTP handlers that rely on external processes, the operating system can run out of threads, because many threads are blocked and are waiting for an external process.
When you create an asynchronous handler, you must implement the IHttpAsyncHandler interface. You must also implement the BeginProcessRequest method in order to initiate an asynchronous call that processes individual HTTP requests. In addition, you must implement the EndProcessRequest method to run cleanup code when the process ends.
The IHttpHandlerFactory class receives requests and is responsible for forwarding a request to the appropriate HTTP handler. You can create a custom HTTP handler factory by creating a class that implements the IHttpHandlerFactory interface. A custom handler factory can give you finer control over how HTTP requests are processed by creating different handlers based on run-time conditions. For example, with a custom HTTP handler factory, you can instantiate one HTTP handler for a file type if the HTTP request method is PUT, and another if the method is GET.
To register a custom extension for a handler factory, follow the steps for registering a custom extension for a handler. For an example of creating and registering a handler factory, see Walkthrough: Creating and Registering HTTP Handler Factories.
An HTTP module is an assembly that is called on every request that is made to your application. HTTP modules are called as part of the request pipeline and have access to life-cycle events throughout the request. HTTP modules therefore let you examine incoming requests and take action based on the request. They also let you examine the outgoing response and modify it.
In IIS 6.0, the ASP.NET request pipeline is separate from the Web server request pipeline. In IIS 7.0, the ASP.NET request pipeline and the Web server request pipeline can be integrated into a common request pipeline. In IIS 7.0, this is referred to as Integrated mode. The unified pipeline has several benefits for ASP.NET developers. For example, it lets managed-code modules receive pipeline notifications for all requests, even if the requests are not for ASP.NET resources. However, if you want, you can run IIS 7.0 in Classic mode, which emulates ASP.NET running in IIS 6.0. For more information, see ASP.NET Application Life Cycle Overview for IIS 7.0.
ASP.NET HTTP modules are like ISAPI filters because they are invoked for all requests. However, they are written in managed code and are fully integrated with the life cycle of an ASP.NET application. You can put custom module source code in the App_Code folder of your application, or you can put compiled custom modules as assemblies in the Bin folder of an application.
ASP.NET uses modules to implement various application features, which includes forms authentication, caching, session state, and client script services. In each case, when those services are enabled, the module is called as part of a request and performs tasks that are outside the scope of any single page request. Modules can consume application events and can raise events that can be handled in the Global.asax file. For more information about application events, see ASP.NET Application Life Cycle Overview for IIS 5.0 and 6.0 and ASP.NET Application Life Cycle Overview for IIS 7.0.
HTTP modules differ from HTTP handlers. An HTTP handler returns a response to a request that is identified by a file name extension or family of file name extensions. In contrast, an HTTP module is invoked for all requests and responses. It subscribes to event notifications in the request pipeline and lets you run code in registered event handlers. The tasks that a module is used for are general to an application and to all requests for resources in the application.
Modules must be registered to receive notifications from the request pipeline. The most common way to register an HTTP module is in the application's Web.config file. In IIS 7.0, the unified request pipeline also enables you to register a module in other ways, which includes through IIS Manager and through the Appcmd.exe command-line tool. For more information, see Configuring Handler Mappings in IIS 7.0 and Start Appcmd.exe.
When ASP.NET creates an instance of the HttpApplication class that represents your application, instances of any modules that have been registered are created. When a module is created, its Init method is called and the module initializes itself. For more information, see ASP.NET Application Life Cycle Overview for IIS 5.0 and 6.0 and ASP.NET ASP.NET Application Life Cycle Overview for IIS 7.0.
In a module's Init method, you can subscribe to various application events such as BeginRequest or EndRequest by binding the events to methods in the module.
For modules that operate in the IIS 7.0 integrated pipeline, you should register event handlers in the Init method.
When application events are raised, the appropriate method in your module is called. The method can perform whatever logic is required, such as checking authentication or logging request information. During event handling, the module has access to the Context property of the current request. This enables you to redirect the request to an alternative page, modify the request, or perform any other request manipulation. For example, if the module checks authentication, the module might redirect to a login or error page if the credentials are not correct. Otherwise, when the module's event handler has finished running, ASP.NET calls the next process in the pipeline. This might be another module or might be the appropriate HTTP handler (such as an .aspx file) for the request.
You can implement much of the functionality of a module in the application's Global.asax file, which enables you to respond to application events. However, modules have an advantage over the Global.asax file because they are encapsulated and can be created one time and used in many different applications. By adding them to the global assembly cache and registering them in the Machine.config file, you can reuse them across applications. For more information, see Global Assembly Cache.
In IIS 7.0, the integrated pipeline enables managed modules to subscribe to pipeline notifications for all requests, not just requests for ASP.NET resources. Event handlers in the Global.asax file are invoked only for notifications during requests for resources in the application. Custom modules in Integrated mode can be explicitly scoped to receive event notifications only for requests to the application. Otherwise, custom modules receive event notification for all requests to the application. If the precondition attribute of the add element of the modules section is set to "managedHandler", the module is scoped to the application.
The advantage of using the Global.asax file is that you can handle other registered events such as Session_Start and Session_End. In addition, the Global.asax file enables you to instantiate global objects that are available throughout the application.
You want to re-use the module in other applications.
You want to avoid putting complex code in the Global.asax file.
The module applies to all requests in the pipeline (IIS 7.0 Integrated mode only).
You should add code in the Global.asax file whenever you must create code that depends on application events and you do not have to reuse it across applications. You can also use the Global.asax file when you have to subscribe to events that are not available to modules, such as Session_Start.
Create a class that implements the IHttpModule interface.
Write a handler for the Init method. The initialization method should initialize your module and subscribe to any application events you need. For example, if you want to append something to responses, you might subscribe to the EndRequest event. If you want to perform custom authentication logic, you might subscribe to the AuthenticateRequest event. For more information about application events, see ASP.NET Application Life Cycle Overview for IIS 5.0 and 6.0.
Write code for the events that you have subscribed to.
Optionally implement the Dispose method if the module requires cleanup.
For information about how to move a module from an application that is running in IIS 6.0 or earlier versions to an application that runs on in IIS 7.0, see Moving an ASP.NET Application from IIS 6.0 to IIS 7.0.
The following table lists the key server classes for the HTTP modules and HTTP handlers.
Used to create a custom HTTP module by implementing the interface and then registering the module in the Web.config file.
Used to create a custom synchronous HTTP handler by creating a class that implements the interface.
Used to create a custom, asynchronous HTTP handler by creating a class that implements the interface.

Supercars Breaking news
Lockdown relief for Supercars opener
Andrew van Leeuwen
Feb 17, 2021, 12:16 AM
The Supercars season-opener is poised to go ahead as planned as Victoria emerges from its snap lockdown.
Victoria was plunged back into lockdown late last week to help contain a COVID-19 outbreak linked to hotel quarantine.
With six teams based in Melbourne, the five-day shutdown forced the Winton test to be postponed to this Friday, and cast doubt over whether the season-opening Mount Panorama 500 would go ahead later this month as planned.
But, after a nervous few days, the outbreak looks to have been contained and Victoria is set to open up at midnight tonight.
That means Friday's Winton test can go ahead, and, barring a change in circumstances, the Melbourne teams will then be able to cross the New South Wales border for the Mount Panorama 500 at the end of the month.
The green light in Victoria is also welcome news for the second round of the 2021 Supercars season, currently scheduled to take place at Sandown in Melbourne on March 20-21.
It will also open the door for the second round of the TCR/S5000 seasons at Phillip Island to go ahead on its new March 12-14 date.
That event was meant originally scheduled for this weekend but was pushed back due to the lockdown.

Why Courtney and Tickford are a dream match

Drivers react to "handful" Gen3 Supercars
Supercars wants to race outside Australia again
By Andrew van Leeuwen
James Courtney has been around the block in his motorsport career it's fair to say. After a single-seater career cut short, he's won everything there is to win in Supercars. Following a rocky ride recently in the Australian category, he's found a happy hunting ground with Tickford Racing.
How taming his temper shaped Supercars' slow-burn star
His decision to leave Brad Jones Racing was the biggest shock of the Australian Supercars silly season so far. But for Nick Percat, it comes as the culmination of a personal journey that has made him into one of the most rounded drivers in the series, now in search of a seat that can make him a champion
Why replacing Supercars' GOAT with a teenager is worth the risk for T8
On the face of it, picking an 18-year-old rookie to replace arguably the greatest Supercars driver of all time is a risky move. But as Jamie Whincup takes up a team principal role and hands his car to Broc Feeney, it's one that he is confident will be rewarded in the fullness of time - time which wasn't afforded to Whincup in his early days
How Randle went from fighting cancer to battling for Supercars contention
After his fledgling career was paused by a battle with testicular cancer, Thomas Randle then had to wrestle with finding a drive in Supercars after he got the all-clear. It's been a long road for the Melbourne native but, after two lengthy battles, he's finally got a full-time drive to look forward to
How crisis talks over Supercars' Gen3 future could leave it without a paddle
With Supercars' Gen3 era on the horizon, a shift is set to take place – in more ways than one – but, as has become clear in recent weeks, the plan to bin the stick and use paddles with electronic assisted shift has been met with fierce opposition
Can DJR still be a Supercars powerhouse after Penske?
Roger Penske's whirlwind Australian Supercars sojourn is over. After six seasons, three drivers' titles, three teams' championships and a Bathurst 1000 crown, The Captain has sold his controlling stake in Dick Johnson Racing back to the squad and walked away from the category.
Can Whincup be Triple Eight's ruthless leader?
Supercars' most successful team of the past 15 years is set for a radical shakeup next year when Jamie Whincup retires from driving and takes over the reins at Triple Eight. But does he have what it takes to be the new Roland Dane?
How a lifetime Supercars deal broke down in one year
David Reynolds inked what was effectively a lifetime deal with Erebus in 2019 – only to walk out a year later. What went wrong?


Sounds like a bargain to me 14 day cruise including flights drinks transfers and gratuities for £1000?
Grats on p&O would be around £98 so that is half your drinks upgrade?
As a man in his 40s I love a good drink on my cruise. However even I probably never spend over £30 in a day and that includes few beers and glass of wine and cocktail. I couldn't justify paying over that and would feel I'd be forced to drink more to get my money's worth. I'm very glad P&O are one of the few not to have the all inclusive packages and should stick to their guns. I've seen some terrible behaviour on other cruise lines usually involving the British of course who are trying to squeeze every last penny out their package. Yes you can go with other cruise companies but you'll pay a lot more up front for their cruises. P&O keep prices lower due to not having these packages included. I honestly cannot see many people taking them up on it knowing P&O crowd and be interested to see the feedback. I applaud them for trialling it however and if they did introduce it they could always keep it just to one or two ships only.
The only people who would come out on top with these packages are the company. Very few people can deprive them of a profit rather like cinemas who do as many films as you can see passes. Friends who have those haven't been in months but sounded good at the time.
I would much rather pay as I went along and P&O.prices are most reasonable unlike other companies.
I looked back on our last cruise on Britannia and we drank plenty, creeped over £40 on a couple of sea days, but was way under on others. Happy to pay as we go.
Our sentiments and experience too.
We have been on numerous P&O cruises, and on 3 (Recent) RCCL.
The prices RCCL charge for their drinks are quite ridiculous, and without a drinks package would cost more than the cruise itself.
On the last cruise we had an offer of a package included in the price so it was not a problem, also with RCCL there is not the option to take on board 2 litres of spirit for cabin consumption, unless you want to risk smuggling it on.
On P&O we have found the drinks prices to be comparable to what we would pay in local pubs in the UK, and even a bottle of champagne served chilled in your own bucket in Charlies on Aurora is £39.95!! quite astounding value really.
Add to this the fact that when booking early (As we like to pick our cabin location on the ship) we have always had £400-£500 on board credit included in the price, which is fair few G and t's per day.
And as for the typical crowd on RCCL, we found that on the last 2 cruises on Oasis, there have been loads of completely legless guests "Enjoying " their drinks packages to the utmost.
So I personally am glad that P&O have avoided following all the others, and steered clear of the All inclusive package.
Hi. Thanks. I am not sure I understand. I thought P&O only allowed two bottles on initial boarding?
What annoys me about this gesture is the amount per person per week of cruise.
The allowance is one litre of spirit for a one week cruise and the exact same amount for a 6 week cruise.
Wow bearing in mind how reasonable the bar prices are £39.95 pppd Is steep and they are taking RCCL idea that all adults in the cabin must take it.
That is an awesome number of drinks between you to even break even.
I wonder if they will have a £ limit per drink too like RC.
I read its limited to 15 drinks.
15 alcoholic drinks. The package contains non-alcoholic drinks too. Even so I still won't be anywhere near £40 a day.
Wow bearing in mind how reasonable the bar prices are £39.95 pppd Is steep .
That thinking is using current P&O Bar prices?
Any alien visiting planet earth and trying to understand human culture will think, reading this thread, that alcohol is vital to our existence!
The package also includes non alcoholic beverages as well, though you wouldn't think so reading this.
I dont see how your post relates to mine - please delete the quote.
Although I hardly drink at home?
It does relate because you referred to bar prices. Anyway it's too late edit button has gone.
They will do what they can to make more profit and hopefully they will not make it all inclusive.
If the drinks package is included in the price the cruise price will increase for everyone and in RC case when they offer free drinks promotions it is usually paid for by an increase of around £500 per couple per week.
Lots of exceptions on there!!
Wonder what they mean by premium canned and bottled soft drinks? and 15 drinks a day max!!
Still not sure we could drink £80 a day every day, whilst steering through the minefield of exclusions!!
Will stick to PAYG esp when we normally get between £350-450 OBC as well.
I am not opposed to the introduction of drinks packages. It is quite easy to add up roughly how much you spend on extras and calculate whether it is viable to take the package.
Our main expenditure is on bottles of wine so the package is not for us. The package gives a 20% reduction on bottled wines so we would need to get through about 10 bottles a day to break even!
The point that has been alluded to which is a concern is whether P & O will raise bar prices as an enticement to take the package. Only time will tell.
Thanks for this - no mention of draught mixers - has that restriction been lifted now ? Bet you can't have Fever Tree tonic with your gin.
We have not received any information that states that these will not be available on your cruise, however, as this is only a trial. it may be removed at any time.
Is it just me but I now can't see any thing on P and O website about the drinks package.
Maybe they have decided against it after the trial.
I think £40 ppp day is a bit steep.
That's about 9 pints of Old Speckled Hen a day.


Today I am posting a link to my final paper presentation for the course Communicating Mindfully. In it, I use the theory of distance in interpersonal relationship as a tool for relational success in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. The paper focuses on the conflict between Elizabeth Bennet and Lady Catherine de Bourgh. Lady Catherine can't see the glorious and beautiful mountain that is Elizabeth Bennet for focusing too much on Elizabeth's personal life, her social status, and the misbehavior of her family – the trees. Had she employed proper, healthy distance from the beginning of her relationship with Elizabeth, things might have turned out differently. Maybe there's still time. If Elizabeth marries Mr. Darcy, she will be equal to Lady Catherine if not greater. There is a chance for them to begin again as aunt and niece. I hope you enjoy!
Carrie, as you know I like Pride and Prejudice, there are so many life issues in this movie and book. I like your tone of voice when depicting your paper and how you have little words on your slides, so it forces the listener to focus on the presenter rather than read what is on the slide. With that I would maybe put just a little more on the slides with page numbers, so you would not have to say the title of the book, author and page number. I especially liked your questions back to the listener and the application of the situation even in a different time can be applicable to our current era.

tv Lou Dobbs Tonight FOX Business December 8, 2017 11:00pm-12:00am EST
with 40-year-old allegations that he denies, then you have got dog jones who openly admittedly embraces the worst i kinds of child abuys, the murder of children. that's why people are going to vote for roy moore, i predict. gregg: we have a lot more straight ahead with special coverage of president trump's:make america great again rally in pensacola. good evening. i'm gregg jarrett in for lou dobbs. we are moments away from the make america great again-style rally. no mention of candidate roy moore in the president. prepared remarks. fox business corresponds yernts hillary vaughn is at the pensacola base center.
good evening, hillary. reporter: we did get a sneak peek of what's to come in president trump's remarks in just a few moments. he's going to have fun with the speech and not necessarily going to stay on script. he's going to double down on his agenda and talk to the working-class voters and tell them the issues he wants to get through. his endorsement of republican senate candidate roy moore, saying that they need that republican seat to get that agenda through, and that's what today is about. you can see the crowd getting riled up. a lot of people here getting excited to hear from the president. but really, a lot of this is going to be the greatest pitch
we have heard from president trump on the campaign trail. a lot of people here went to his rallies when he was running for president. now they are here to hear about those issues again. gregg: joining me to talk about it, matt schlapp, chairman of the american conservative union. this is going to be a long speech. matt: there are some home runs. i don't think anybody knows exactly what he will do. i heard a white house spokesman saying he won't be touching on the alabama senate race. i don't know if you can be so sure. gregg: there is nothing the president hates more than being predictable and having people tell him what he's going to do or not going to do. the media saying it's not in the speech and he won't talk about moore.
if i know the president by habit, he will do just the opposite. matt: that's probably exactly right. it's the spontaneity of donald trump and the idea he isn't overly scripted is one of the most of likely features of him as a politician. it gets him into trouble sometimes before it engages the american people because they think the president is speaking from the heart to them. gregg: how much does he love these venues, speaking before a cheering crowd? matt: donald trump loves people. he's a high-energy guy, he moves at a fast pace. he talks at a fast pace, and i think he gets a lost energy from reconnecting with people. a lot of presidents get stuck in the bubble, they get stuck in the rose garden. and they don't get to talk to
real americans. this president is trying to punch out and talk to people as much as he can it's almost like a tonic on his soul. gregg: members of the never trump conservative crowd have been vocal against roy moore. does that just -- will that sort of ager roy moore's base and cause them to get out in greater force tuesday? matt: i think the never trump self-described conservatives eventually, they can't continue to be never trump when trump continues to do the right thing over and over again. there are conservatives who that have concerns with judge moore. voting is a personal thing. they will decide what to do between now and election day. there are a lot of conservatives who say i will vote for judge
moore because the supreme court is at stake, and we can have an opening come january or february. just because i put lever for judge moore, it doesn't mean i think he's a great representative our values. they will be having another election alabama in a few short years. votedders are struggling but they don't want to hear from d.c. politicians about what they should do. gregg: all of this comes right after the resignation of senator al franken of minnesota. there were a myriad of accuser. the photograph him appearing to sexually abuse a woman, yet he takes to the floor of the senate in which some describe as a d
disingenuous speech. this isn't the sign of a remorseful man, is it? matt: i thought the part that was the most of telling, mr. franken's soul and character. this is a moment of extreme hugh nil yaition, yet with pride and arrogance he went on a blistering attack against the president. thee believe people like al franken believe the crew of said to tear down a legitimately elected president in donald trump justifies almost anything they say or have done. and the fact that he doesn't feel the shame and remorse for having humiliated people he should have respected tells you the people of minnesota could do a heck of a lot better. gregg: i wrote a column for fox
news.com titled "robert mueller and his biased team of prosecutors must go." matt: i lead your piece. the piece i finds really interesting is this idea you can like or not like mueller. i have plenty of friends who say bob mueller will do the honorable thing. the jury is out. but there is no dispute he pulled together some of the most of hateful never trump type lawyers who have a political ax to grind against the president. and there is a veal question. should the attorney general do something, even if he doesn't should count investigation, shouldn't there be a group of non-partisan lawyers -- before it way, there are a lot of lawyers in the country -- they could come together and give the
american people a fair read on what happened with russia conclusion. nobody is going to respect the prosecutorial judgment of lawyers who are never trumpers. gregg: on the right-hand side of your screen, ron desantis is speaking. he has been very critical of the special counsel's investigation. and the players involved in it. he -- does there need to be an investigation of the investigators here? because of their blatant agenda? i think andrew wiseman, the lead prosecutor in the case, he has a track record and history that is notorious. he has been accused of threatening witnesses and hiding evidence. there he is at hillary clinton's election night party.
this is a guy who may decide whether or not charges are brought against president trump and he's at trump's opponent's rally. think about this. matt: the attorney general with a fair reading of the guidance at doj recuses himself base's involved with the campaign. yet mueller hires people who are going adjudicate this issue who were involved in the presidential campaign for hillary clinton and it's okay for them to be involved in the investigation? i think the guidance was trying to say d.o.j. is somehow a non-partisan independent entity that has to have the full faith and credit of the american people. if you are going to put these hacks in there, in this case hillary clinton supporters with an ax to grind against donald
trump, and they are making the decisions on the investigation, what i want to see happen is them to come up with what they see as the wrongdoing conclusion alone. if they can't find it, do the honorable thing. shut the book and let the country move forward. >> is there only one fbi agent at the fbi named peter strzok? he turns out to be the guy who signs the papers that launches the investigation into donald trump. then he joins mueller's team as the lead investigator. is there only one guy at the fbi? should the email investigation of hillary clinton be reopened and reexamined because there is a pretty good argument it was corrupted by peter strzok who was writing these anti-trump
virulently so texts to his girlfriend who is an fbi lawyer, also on the mueller case and the hillary clinton case, and supported hillary clinton. matt: i think that's exactly right. doj is looking at this barbarous bro see diewrs planned parenthood was involved in when they were selling baby parts. i actually think the country can't move forward to believe that there has been fair justice given. when they realize -- when mike flynn has a charge of being dishonest to the fbi, and hillary clinton was dishonest to every agency in the government including 6 or 7 investigations to congress. and about the reason for benghazi, it never ends with them. it doesn't seem fair when she
can get away with lying and have nothing happen. glenn: she doesn't remember anything, don't you know. she was interviewed by fbi agents days before she was cleared with comey. and she said "i don't call" 39 times. she did recall her name and date of birth and that was about it. matt: this is a problem going back to jim comey which i don't think a lot of people understand. jim comey always described as a republican non-partisan is just not accurate. i have a feeling someone is about to enter the stage. gregg: here is the president of the united states. it looks like a packed indoor stadium venue. the pensacola bay center.
the president is expected to speak for 30 minutes and talk about what has been achieved during his first year in office. he's expected to deliver a half-hour speech. but trust me it will be longer than that because the president's speech may time out to be a half-hour. but he has the tendency to throw in a lot of tories and anecdotes. he ad-libs quite a bit. here he is with a crowd people who are supportive of him. and florida helped elect donald trump to the presidency. so the president, the big question a lot of people are wondering since pensacola is at the border 9 miles from alabama, and tuesday there is a special election to fill the vacancy once held by jeff sessions, now the attorney general, whether the president will give a
full-throat endorsement of roy moore. you can bet there are a great many people from alabama in this crowd crossing the bored and traveling a short distance to see the president of the united states. let's listen into the president. president trump: thank you, everybody, thank you. if you think this crowd is big. you should see right now what's outside. congratulations. hello pensacola. what a place! right here on the emerald coast, right? the emerald coast.
in the great state of florida where we had a tremendous victory, didn't we? [cheers and applause] we are joined by many, many people in the military and great american patriots. thank you very much. you remember the campaign, i said let me begin by wishing each and every one of you a very merry christmas. right? [cheers and applause] and i can think of no better christmas present for the american people than giving you a massive tax cut. that's what's happening. and your senate and house hopefully very shortly will have those approvals. and you will be paying a lot
less tax. so congratulations. i hope. they have to vote and i think they will. i can't wait to sign that tax cut great for so many, but great for the middle class. we'll put it into law. we'll cap off an incredible first year in office. there has been no first year like this or at least just about no. i think the answer is no. but i have to be very accurate because of the fake news back there. [cheers and applause] [crowd chants trump trump trump] >> if your campaign for the presidency we defied the
pundits, the politicians and special interests because ours was a movement of the people. and it really was it was a movement of you, it was a movement of the people to make america great again. it's happening. it's happening. by the way, how are your 401ks doing, not too bad, right? over the weekend i was in new york city. and i love to say hello to our folks in uniform, whether it the the military or law enforcement. we had people backstage. i always want to take my time. a man comes up. he was a police officer in new york city. first time anyone said this to me. he said, mr. president i wanted to thank you. my family thinks i'm a financial genius. my 401k is up 39% in 9 months.
i think it's going to be very hard for somebody to beat us in a few years. can you imagine we are only talking about a few years. all you have to say is with us it goes up, and with them it goes down. and that's the end of the election. right? everyone is doing well and it will be a lot better. we'll do better and better. we are going to make our country great again. and we are look at our country as america first. america first. [crowd chants usa] so tonight we are going the speak straight to
the american people and cut right through the fake news media. right through. we are going to speak the plain truth and really the truth that you just want to hear. you have to hear. they don't want to hear. before it way, did you see all the corrections the media has been making? they have been saying sorry. they never apologize. maybe that comes with being the president, i don't know. i don't know. they have been apologizing left and right. they took this fraudster from abc, they suspended him for a month. they should have fired him for what he wrote. he drove the stock market down 350 points in minutes. which by the way tells you they really like me, right? when you think of it. you know what he cost people?
i said get yourself a lawyer and sue abc news. true. and then cnn apologized just a little while ago. thank you cnn, thank you so much. you should have been apologizing for the last two years. true. true. [cheers and applause] what a group, what a group. but since the election, and they are not going to argue with this, we created 3.2 million new jobs. factories are coming back to our country. you know we have factories pouring back into our country. did you ever think you would hear that. i used to tell you that's going
to happen. now there are consequences when companies close up their factories and make it in another country and sell it back to our country. the consequences are getting very steep. and they are going up. there is no more of that stuff. in november alone you saw this today, we added 228,000 jobs. i watched these anchors this morning. they were devastated. what's going on. and honestly we have a long way to go. we are going to do much better than this. including another 33,000 new jobs in manufacturing. right? hispanic unemployment is the lowest ever record. any has panics here? any hispanics? you have guys are great.
remember, they weren't going to vote for me because i am going to build the wall. but they want the wall, too. they want security. [cheers and applause] we are going to have the wall, don't worry. [crowd chants build that wall] they want security. how about the cuban population in miami. we have cubans here tonight. good. the number 86% in favor of trump. a tremendous percentage. total unemployment is now at a 17-year low. think of it. not bad. not bad after 10 months. only going to get better.
listen to this one. this is one of the most of important because it's all psychological to a large extent and that's what creates greatness. consumer confidence is at a 17-year high. think of that. it was not like that in your last administration. economic growth last quarter surged to 3.3%. you know where it was, right? when we started you know where it was? 3.3% and it's going a lot higher. i used to hear you will never hit 3, you will never hit 2.5. if we didn't have the hurricanes last quarter we would have hit 4% and everybody back there would have said that's impossible. we had a couple of hurricanes. you heard about it.
the stock market is hitting an all-time high record for another -- think of this, 86 times since election day. 86 types. it hit a record. 86 times. and we are going to keep it going. and then you look at all of the money you folks are making. i wish i could take 10% or 5%. but you are not going to do that. your pensions are getting bigger and bigger. your pension funds, all of those things are happening. wait until you see what we are doing with healthcare. wait until you see. you will be happy. not the obamacare nightmare. not obamacare nightmare. it's not that nightmare where your premiums are a disaster.
right? they are a disaster. we have it going. you watch. we have good things happening with respect to healthcare. and the taxes are part of it. we'll see what happens. right after taxes you will see what happens. with taxes something great is going to get announced. we are getting rid of the individual mandate, that individual mandate. where you pay a lot of money for the privilege of not having to have insurance or healthcare. so you pay for the privilege of not getting. isn't that a wonderful thing? and we are going to repeal it. since the election we created more than $5 tria $ -- created 5
trillion in the market alone. and we are not including real estate. and we are finally rebuilding our country, defending our citizens, and fighting for our great american workers. we are putting america first by renegotiating trade deals. we are renegotiating nafta and renegotiating our horrendous deal with south korea. i kept you out of the tpp which would have been a total disaster for you and everybody else. and we are making individual deals with these countries. when you get tide into 12 countries or 22 countries or 18 countries, you are stuck. if you have 16 good ones and two bad ones, you can't get out. when you have a deal one-on-one, nice simple deal.
we have a deal with japan or south korea or however it may be. if they don't treat us right, we send them what is called a letter of termination. these people say, tpp. all these countries tied in, you can't terminate. you are tide into the good ones. so you can't do what you have to do. so you send out a letter of termination. you give them a 60-day notice or 30-day notice or 6-month notice. they then come back because we are the big piggy bank everybody likes rock. they come back and say can we negotiate and we make a better deal than we mad in the first place. but you can't do that when you have many countries tied in. i call it a spider's web.
there are bureaucrats and politicians who don't want to see things change because they made a fortune. areas around washington, d.c. is the richest area. we have five areas that are among the richest in the country. that's because everybody is making a fortune and people outside of that area are paying for the money they are making. they like things the way they used to be. they don't like it so much now, though i must tell you they are doing well also. their stocks are going up. i don't know if there is anything i can do to prevent it for those people. but they call themselves the resistance. do you see the signs, resist? resist? i love these guys.
blacks for trump. i love you. i love you. i love you. by the way, now that you bring it up, black homeownership just hit the highest level it's ever been in the history of our country. >> oh, these resisters resist. hillary resisted and do you know what happened? she lost the election in a landslide. >> [cheers and applause ] >> president trump: but do you know what they're really resisting? they're resisting the will of the american people. that's what they're resisting.
>> [crowd cheering ] >> look, its been proven we have a rigged system, it doesn't happen so easy but this system, going to be a lot of changes. this is a rigged system. this is a sick system from the inside and, you know, there's no country like our country, but we have a lot of sickness in some of our institutions and we're working very hard. we've got a lot of them straightened out, but we do have , we really do. we have a rigged system in this country and we have to change it it's terrible. terrible. they're resisting progress, they're resisting change, because the only thing they really care about is protecting
what they've been able to do which is really control the country and not to your benefit. by the way, wages starting to go up. first time in 20 years starting to go up. that's all going to happen. that's all going to happen. >> [cheers and applause ] >> that's all going to happen. that's just apart of what's going on but i'm going to do something better than that. we're going to have choice. we have choice in education. and i thought of it the other day. we're going to have choice in jobs so that you don't have one job and hang on even though you don't like it. you're going to have choice where you can take five jobs six jobs seven jobs pick the one you like at the most money that's what's starting to happen because the jobs are coming in. that's what's starting to happen >> cheers and applause ] >> thanks to general mattis and the military leaders and the allies. mad dog mattis. mad dog mattis.
>> [cheers and applause ] >> thanks to mad dog mattis that we have great military leaders.

other countries telling us how we should be running our immigration. thank you very much. >> [applause] >> we're also getting smart and tough on trade. i've been talking about this for a long time. it's one of the reasons i'm here one of the reasons i'm president we are renegotiating the disastrous trade agreements of nafta, of south korea, of so many others. we are making great deals and we're going to hopefully keep nafta but there's a chance we won't and that's okay. that's okay. how many factories have left for mexico? how many factories? so we right now have a trade deficit with mexico of $71 billion and that doesn't include all the drugs that pour in over the border because we don't have a wall et cetera,
okay? >> [applause] >> $71 billion. 71 billion so we have, think of it we have a trade deficit with mexico of 71 billion. we have a pretty good trade deficit with canada. they were saying we have a surplus with canada. i said no and i like the prime minister very much. nice guy, good guy, no, i like him but we had a meeting and he said no, no, you have a trade surplus and i said no we don't and he said no, no, you have a trade surplus and i said mr. prime minister, we do not. he said how do you know and i said because we don't have a surplus with anybody. he said i'm telling you that canada has a deficit with the united states. i told my people in front of a lot of people, i said go out and check and he was right, except he forgot two categories. lumber, timber, and energy. other than that, he was right. when you add them altogether, we
actually have a $17 billion deficit with canada, right? so he forgot a couple of categories that he didn't want to mention. i heard it with other countries too just got back from asia. i brought back $300 billion worth of deals. >> [applause] >> worth of deals. >> [applause] >> and that number will go a lot higher and these are numbers that produce a lot of jobs in our country and that's what we have to do. we are going to end the theft of american intellectual property, crack down on china's trade abuses, and confront countries that cheat of which many of them are in that category sadly. we will buyback our country, we will take back our country, we will make those great trade deals, and we will have unbelievable amounts of jobs
created and factories created. >> [applause] >> and we will do what other countries do. we will start buying american. we want to buy our product. and we will start hiring americans and we will stay american and be proud of it and that's what's happening more and more and that's why you see all those red hats and those white hats, love those hats. >> [applause] >> that is why one of my very first acts as president was to withdraw the united states from the job killing transpacific. we've also canceled the one job killing regulation that you see after another. one after another, beating the mark of any previous president. now, we have, there was a great
article in the wall street journal the other day, full page , that in the history of our country, nobody, nobody even close, and these are longer terms than 10 months, that in 10 months i've done more on knock ing out regulations than any other president in our history. you know who was right up there? honest abe lincoln, can you believe it? >> [applause] >> he was a regulation cutter. can you believe it? >> [applause] >> abe lincoln was a regulation cutter who would have known that i said you mean i beat abraham lincoln? that's pretty good for 10 months i don't know if regulation sounds so glamourous but i can tell you it's very important, but we have a lot of others. we have statutory requirements where you have to give a 90 day notice and another 90 day notice and you have a cooling off and then a 30 day notice, they're all in the works and you can see a lot more cutting of regulation
but we've done more than any other president and it's not even close and we haven't even started. >> [applause] >> and as promised, and i used to come out here i've been here three times, i love it. i just keep coming back. >> [applause] >> i just keep coming back. oh, boy oh, boy, i'll tell you when we were doing well during that beautiful election, when we were doing well all over florida , i said was the pensacola area included yet? and they said "no" i said guess what we just won that election. >> [applause] >> and as promised, remember? i announced that i would withdraw america, the united
states, from the horrible, for us, good for other countries, it's great for other countries, from the horrible paris climate accord. >> [applause] >> cost us a fortune so china doesn't start until around 2030 i think. russia doesn't have to go back to like a recent date. they go back to somewhere in the 1990s which was a high pollution time. other countries we end up giving money to. this would have been one of the great catastrophes and i could come back into the deal at a much better price. they would love me back in. i could come back into the paris accord and i like the people. i really like emmanuel. i like so many of the people involved, but i could come back.
it's like, i don't get it. i don't see it. i want clean air. i want crystal clear and clean water. >> [applause] >> and i want things that they won't have and i don't want to pay the kind of numbers that you're talking about. if we stayed with those numbers, we would have had to close factories and businesses in order to qualify by 2025. can you imagine? ladies and gentlemen we're violating the accord and in the meantime some of those countries are spewing stuff out that you wouldn't believe and we would be closing up, now we could maybe change the deal, but then we would get sued by all of the groups. you know in china they don't sue china. nobody sues. with us, they sue. i approved immediately after we took office the keystone xl and dakota access pipelines. >> [applause]
>> 48,000 jobs. we've lifted the restrictions on american energy including shale, oil, natural gas, and clean beautiful coal of which we have a thousand years of supply, and we're putting miners back to work. did you see west virginia, i love west virginia. west virginia, i love west virginia, so west virginia people were saying oh, trouble, coal will never come back. in the meantime they're buying it in vietnam from us. the president of vietnam said that is the fineest coal we've ever purchased they're buying it from us so west virginia the numbers just have a great governor of west virginia number s just commute so west virginia had the biggest percentage increase in gdp, of any state in our union except for texas, it was second. how is that? how is that?
and they said coal will never come back. now we're opening up mines and drilling and doing all sorts of things and windmills are wonderful but when the wind doesn't blow they really do cause problems. we have no energy this week. hopefully the wind will start blowing pretty soon. >> [laughter] >> we are pursuing american energy dominance and by the end of this year, we will be totally self sufficient. we will be major exporters of energy. we will take a massive amounts of money, we will start paying off our $20 trillion in debt. my administration was also leading the charge to rebuild our military. >> [applause] >> the military.
we're supporting our troops and their wonderful military families including those right here in the cradle of naval aviation. >> [applause] >> the home of the legendary blue angels people don't realize that. >> [applause] >> by the way, could those people fly or what? >> [applause] >> how about naval air station pensacola, good place? >> [applause] >> and it's really time. this isn't a republican thing or a democratic thing or anything. it's time for democrats in congress to drop the threats of
shutdowns of government and support a clean appropriations bill that fully supports and funds our military. we can't play games any more. we can't play games. and don't forget, we make the greatest missiles, the greatest military equipment anywhere in the world. nobody is close and what does it also mean? and to me it's secondary in this case, but what does it also mean jobs, jobs, but we are building our military stronger and by the time i decide to go off into the wild blue yonder, you'll have the strongest military this country has ever had by far. >> [applause] >> it's wrong and dangerous but congressional democrats to hold
troop funding hostage for amnesty letting people pour into our country, we don't know who they are. we don't know where they come from. you saw what happened with beautiful kate steinley. this guy, he said he didn't know it was a gun. oh, he didn't know. oh, he didn't know. he didn't know it was a gun. that's his new line. did you notice the federal government came in and brought another suit against him, right? >> [applause] >> we'll come in. that was a total miscarriage of justice. he didn't know it was a gun. the real changes that we're facing are the drugs and the gangs pouring into our country. the millions of people over staying their visas, chain migration that caused taxpayers billions and billions of dollars and sanctuary cities that set
free violent criminal aliens all over our country and protect them. >> [boo] >> people come in and they're not necessarily good, like the man that ran over, the animal that ran over many people in new york city the other day. you saw that. two months ago, he runs over people, goes on a beautiful, i know it so well, the west side highway. i know it so well, so beautiful. people running, jogging trying to get in shape. he killed many people, ran them over, chain migration. according to chain migration he may have as many as 22-24 people that came in with him. his grandfather, his grandmother , his mother, his father, his brother and sisters. we have to end chain migration. we have to end chain migration.
>> [applause] >> i mean, you go to kate who was such a beautiful young american woman, killed on a pier in san francisco in the prime of her life. she was killed by this guy, an illegal alien who had been deported five times and convicted seven times of felonies. i guess they weren't allowed to mention this in court. they weren't allowed to mention. don't worry, we're right in there, but he was roaming free to threaten innocent americans like kate because of our borders and because san francisco was a sanctuary city. in other words a city run by politicians. >> [crowd booing] >> who would rather protect criminal aliens than american citizens. let me give you another example. the city of chicago. what the hell is going on in
chicago? there are those that say that afghanistan is safer than chicago, okay? what is going on? you know what's wrong with chicago? weak, in effective politicians, democrats that don't want to force restrictions. >> [applause] >> and by the way, chicago for those of you that are going to say guns guns, chicago has the toughest gun laws in the united states, okay? just in case you were thinking about it. they immediately say oh, you have to takeaway. chicago has the toughest gun laws in the united states so we're asking democrats in congress to cease their obstruction and do the right thing and sanctuary cities.
stop the carnage, save the innocent lives, we've also begun the process of building the wall on the southern border. and we are empowering our immigration officers to do their job and they're doing a great job. ice and border patrol agents are working so hard and they endorsed us for the election. i say us because it's really not me. it's us altogether it's us. we're a group a big group. a big beautiful group. all you have to do is look around here. >> [applause] >> just look around. >> crowd cheering usa, usa, usa, usa ]
>> [applause] >> i just said just look around and the big thing i see is that big beautiful merry christmas sign, i mean, can you believe it remember, i told you two years ago, when we started, i said and it was summer but i said you know, we're going to say merry christmas but let me just tell you the department store is right they had the beautiful red wall with snowflakes all over the place and only one thing missing the words "merry christmas." they're using those words again, do you notice? >> [applause] >> but one by one we're finding the illegal alien drug members, the gang members, the thieves and criminals and killers, and we are throwing them the hell out of our country but we're putting them in prison.
>> [applause] >> and because our borders now are strong as they should be, and they're going to get much stronger, we will not let these people back in. >> [applause] >> it's time for congress to adopt a pro-american immigration agenda. every member of congress should be asked where they stand on these issues, blocking funds to sanctuary cities. i don't want to give sanctuary cities money. >> [applause] >> passing kate's law to put repeat offenders behind bars for a long period of time. >> [applause] >> increasing the number of ice officers who are fantastic and border patrol officers so we can
dismantle vile criminal gangs like as i said ms13 animals. >> ensuring that new immigrants to our country are financially self sufficient and will not be on welfare the day they come in. >> [applause] >> and as i said, ending chain migration. we want a system that is merit- based. they come in on merit. they don't come in a lottery system. how about the lottery system folks, do you see that? >> [crowd booing] >> that's the guy in new york city. the lottery system, where they put names in a bin. you know, you think these countries are legitimate when they do their lottery system, so what they do, i would say, but more than just say, they take their worst and they put them in the bin and then when they pick the lottery, they have the real
worst in their hands, oh, here they go, and we end up getting them. no more lottery system we're going to end that. we've already started the process. >> [applause] >> we want people coming into our country who love our people, support our economy, and embrace our values. >> [applause] >> it's time to get our priority ies straight. this guy's screaming we want roy moore. he's right. >> [applause] >> democrats in congress want open borders, higher taxes, and government-run healthcare that doesn't work, cost a fortune doesn't work. they're soft on crime and they want to suffocate our economy
with socialistic-style regulation, raise your taxes through the sky. they don't want to vote for our tax cuts because they want tax increases. that's why we need a republican in the house. we need a republican in the senate. we need more of this. >> [applause] and by the way just so i can satisfy this gentlemen out there, how many people here are from the great state of alabama? >> [applause] >> wow. so did you see what happened today, you know the year book? did you see that? there was a little mistake made, she started writing things in the yearbook.
what are we going to do? gloria alred, any time you see her you know somethings going wrong. we cannot afford this country, the future of this country cannot afford to lose a seat in the very very close united states and we can't afford it folks, we can't. we can't afford to have a liberal democrat who is completely controlled by nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. we can't do it. >> [crowd booing] >> his name is jones and he's their total puppet and everybody knows it. he will never ever vote for us. we need somebody in that senate seat who will vote for our make
america great again agenda. >> [applause] >> which involves, which involves tough on crime, strong on borders, strong on immigration. we want great people coming into our country, building the walls, strengthening our military, continuing our great fight for our veterans. i love our veterans. >> [applause] >> we love our veterans. we want conservative judges like judge gorsuch on the supreme court, doing a great job too. >> [applause] >> we want people that are going to protect your gun rights. great trade deals instead of the horrible deals. >> [applause] >> and we want jobs, jobs, jobs,
so get out and vote for roy moore. >> [applause] >> working with republicans in congress, we've already signed 88 pieces of legislation. we get no credit. they always say well, president trump really needs this tax bill because he hasn't passed any legislation. well, so far in ten months, we've passed more during this period of time than any other president in the history of our country and the second let's call runner up is harry stroman was second so we passed all of this, including, including the long-awaited veterans accountability act. >> [applause] do you know what that

This post is more around my observations during the trek.
I was reading Man and His Symbols during the trek, so the mountains combined with the concepts of archetypes and 'collective unconscious' created an aura which inspired a deep appreciation of nature and our humble role in grand scheme of things. Looking at the mountains just makes you wonder how long these mountains have been standing there, snow clad - without any concern for the million thoughts and desires which billions of people have every day.
While taking strolls in the early morning along side our camps, it became very apparent to me that the world is just a playground or a 'maya' and how much is it of value / real is difficult to ascertain. It is just a play which getting performed with different actors getting introduced, playing their parts and fading away. The mountains on the other hand just stand there being a testimony to everything - and may be they also take birth and die, but on a much larger time scale. Himalayas after all are just result of some tectonic plate shifts around 50mn years ago.
We were a group of around 60 folks, and there was an increased tendency to take photographs of everything. Part of this was because of advent of mobile and availability of Internet even in high mountains (which was really a surprise to me!) This inevitably made me think about the documentation vs enjoying beauty in the present question. For me at least, I preferred enjoying the beauty at the moment rather than trying to capture it for viewing at some later time. But why is taking photographs so popular? Is it to share with your friends about the great places you have been? Or to keep memories for your future? Beats me.
As Naval was telling in a podcast, being at the present rather than being in your monkey head is important. Present is what we really have. Past and futures are just illusions of our memories and construct of our brain.
Next time, I intend to go in a much smaller group - so that there is less noise and more tranquility to absorb the beauty and reflect. Lets see how that materializes.

What the County's Talking About This Week
By New TImes Staff
Blakeslee to donate pay increase to charity
California rank-and-file legislators were awarded a 12 percent pay raise this week. Local Assemblyman Sam Blakeslee said he would donate his raise to the Prado Day Center and North County Women's shelter.
"You know, I was hired at this rate and I'm not comfortable accepting a raise in this term," he said. "At a time when we're trying to make cutbacks it's only appropriate [to donate the money]."
Blakeslee said he chose the two charities because he was familiar with them and had a lot of respect for the work they do. "They do a great job helping people in need," he said.
The Prado Day Center and North County Women's Shelter will each receive half of Blakeslee's $12,000 raise. Blakeslee said that these are difficult budget times and that "the legislators should be mindful of the cuts we're asking people to make."

Scuba diver dies at Nacimiento
Milton Ratzlaff, a lieutenant at California Men's Colony, died while scuba diving at Lake Nacimiento. The California Department of Forest and Fire Protection (CDF) received a call of a diver down at 11:38 a.m. May 23, said CDF spokesman Mike Cole.
Park Rangers from Monterey Parks were the first ones to arrive at Bee Rock Cove on the lake's North Shore. They attempted CPR on Ratzlaff. CDF, San Luis Ambulance, and a CALSTAR helicopter then arrived but the victim was pronounced dead at the scene, said Cole.
Third sewer suit fails
Los Osos inched closer to construction of its long-awaited, state-mandated sewer this week when a Superior Court judge ruled that the CSD's three-fifths majority was adequate to approve the project, which carries a price tag of $150 million, according to the most recent estimates.
The Concerned Citizens of Los Osos (CCLO), headed by Keith Swanson, cited a law that would have required a four-fifths vote to approve the use of state bond monies for public work projects. The court recently dismissed two other lawsuits filed by the CCLO, which has been committed to moving the wastewater treatment facility from its controversial downtown location.
Two special elections, expected to be held in September, could still stand in the way of the contentious project. A recall vote could ouster the three pro-sewer CSD board members, Stan Gustafson, Gordon Hensley, and Richard LeGros. The other vote could allow the citizens of Los Osos to decide for themselves on the sewer's location.
As of now, the sewer project is moving forward. And if all goes according to plan, construction will break ground in July.

If they build it, you will come
The new Damon-Garcia Sports Fields across from the Marigold Center at 3615 Broad St. will be hosting a grand-opening celebration this Friday, May 27, at 4 p.m.
Six years in the making, the 24-acre facility is big enough for up to four tournament-size soccer fields and can accommodate a combination of other turf sports as well. The sports field also has lights for night games, a 156-car parking lot, a recreational bike path, and permanent buildings for restrooms and concessionaires.
Field activities on Friday evening will run from 5-8 p.m., including a variety of sports demonstrations and a mini-carnival. Festivities will continue throughout the weekend, with a barbecue and sports festival from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday and continuing on Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Commemorate those lost at sea
Those that lost their lives at sea while either serving in the military or fishing industry will be honored in the fifth annual "Lost at Sea" ceremonies Monday, May 30 at 4 p.m. at the Cayucos Pier as part of Memorial Day weekend services.
Spokesman Doug Carroll says the event was created to give closure to family and friends of seafarers who never returned.

Trudeau government must rein in compensation for government workers
Appeared in National Newswatch, July 24, 2020
Despite a federal budget deficit estimated to eclipse $340 billion this year, the Trudeau government this week announced it will increase the wages of 10,000 government workers.
Specifically, the government plans to boost these wages by 6.6 per cent over a three-year period. Two weeks earlier, the government also raised wages (by the same percentage) for another 84,000 government workers, while various forms of paid leave were also increased. And these pay hikes may not capture the full cost of increasing government compensation, as they are likely to set a new precedent for future raises for other federal government workers.
Indeed, government workers in Canada already enjoy a substantial wage and benefit premium compared to comparable workers in the private sector.
According to a recent Fraser Institute study, government workers in Canada at all levels (federal, provincial and local) receive 9.4 per cent more, on average, in wages than Canadians employed in the private sector (in 2018, the latest year of comparable data). The analysis controls for factors such as age, gender, education, industry and type of work.
Now, as many private-sector workers take pay cuts to retain their jobs during the COVID pandemic, many government workers are receiving pay raises, further widening the gap between the two sectors.
The study also found that government workers not only enjoy higher wages than their private-sector counterparts, but they also enjoy greater job security, earlier retirement and more generous pensions. And while many private-sector workers worry about their employment future in light of COVID-19, government workers are six times less likely to lose their jobs and nine times more likely to have a guaranteed pension.
From a fiscal perspective, with these pay hikes for government workers, the Trudeau government is moving in the wrong direction. Since salaries and benefits of government workers represent a substantial portion of its expenditures, and those salaries and benefits are clearly out of line with the private sector, the government should be getting spending under control to begin moving towards balance budgets.
Indeed, the Trudeau government could save a significant amount of money by bringing the compensation of civil servants more in line with the private sector—without reducing the quality of services for Canadians. Not only does this option save money, but it's also the fairest solution for taxpayers who foot the bill.
In addition to the massive federal budget deficit, annual government program spending will reach $592.6 billion this year and the federal debt is expected to exceed $1.0 trillion. The federal debt-to-GDP ratio (a common measure of the government's ability to pay its debt) is also projected to climb from 31.1 per cent to 49.1 per cent in 2020, and will likely grow further in the future. This growing government debt could have a negative effect on economic growth, the interest payments will divert money away from important public priorities, and potentially lead to tax increases.
As the health of federal finances deteriorates, it's critically important that the federal government demonstrates strong fiscal prudence. By bringing government compensation more in line with the private sector, the Trudeau government can help control spending, ensure fairness between government and private-sector workers, and begin moving towards balanced budgets.
