World 2011: Waking up and smell the Jasmine
Albert K. Fung
And with clockwork like precision, the 11 Egypt's are succum
-bing to that sweet, subtle aroma of the Jasmine flower. The
revolution that bore its name started in Tunisia and is top-
pling dictatorships and ruthless regimes, in domino fashion.
One by one, they folded like houses of cards. Latest reports
confirmed that it even reached the faraway Kingdom of China,
last member on the list of eleven.
Where, a despotic junta has been ruling for half a century.
"Jasmine Revolution", is now a political unmentionable and a
heavily censored term on the Internet of that despotic King-
dom in the far east. A meek call to celebrate the remarkable
flower, triggered a massive mobilization of the Kingdom's in
-ternal security forces. A sure sign that the junta is keen-
ly aware of its own lack of legitimacy to rule.
High on the list is the thousand year old monarchy of North-
ern Africa - Morocco. Last night, tens of thousands gathered
in the capital of the small country, demanding democracy and
equal opportunity. The Moroccan monarchy is badly rattled by
the sweet smell of the Jasmine flower.
Ushered in by the Facebook generation .... :)

Are now taking steps to shutdown their production facilities
and evacuate employees from the country. EU's denouncing the
violence and evacuate nationals as well. Many, in the Libyan
government agencies are resigning en masse. And, the Colonel
has not been seen.
He is rumored to be in Venezuela .... :)

In a poor country like Lybia, only fools would give up a well-paying

Jasmine fragrance soap opera?

Albert K. Fung
Issued a formal call on Monday - urging its mainland counter
-part to heed the people's legitimates demand for democracy,
and respect their rights to freedom of speech, to peacefully
assemble and to petition the government.
It condemned police arrests on calls for Jasmine Revolution.
The Mainland Affairs Council said, "In recent years, China's
national power has strengthened, and people's lives have im-
proved. We hope China while developing its economy, can also
implement social justice, judicial justice, human rights pro
-tection and reform of the political system."
Meanwhile, the Jasmine Revolution is having dramatic effects
on Libya's military. Two fighter jets defected to Malta ask-
ing for asylum. The two pilots, both Libyan colonels, refus-
ed to follow orders to massacre their own people.
The Egyptian government, issued formal worldwide requests to
freeze the assets of its deposed former president. The Swiss
central bank pledge cooperation, and to make the gentleman's
ill gotten gains available to the new government.
In light of these two events, the American Empire should ex-
ercise its considerable hard as well as soft powers - to gua
-rantee safe passage, asylums, and even moneys for the likes
China's President Hu, Premier Wen as well as PLA top brasses
to make it easier for them to defect and to relinquish their
powers - in the name of peaceful transisition.

To be slaves in a foreign land? A person gotta be a fool to do that
when he has a life of God at home.
A Cuban fighter pilot can tell you all about his life in America after
he flew his MIG-21, the latest fighter at the time, to Florida. The
U.S. gave him a huge reward for his deed. After all money is gone, he
was living on the streets in New York City. Finally, he hi-jacked a
commercial plane back to Cuba where Fidel Castro promptly threw him in
jail.

Do you have any evidence for that?

This may be news to you, but the 228 Incident happened in 1947.
Anti-DabianchenVirus
Yes, it did, but it *did* happen, and it showed that the then KMT
government was prepared to kill any native Formosan who even whispered
the word "independence", and now, that very same government is
clamoring for that very same state. By the way, did you know about the
228 Incident before today?
Look at the synopsis of the film "Formosa Betrayed":
"Inspired by two actual events, one surrounding the death of Professor
Chen Wen-Chen (陳文成) of Carnegie Mellon University in 1981, and the
other the 1984 assassination of journalist Henry Liu in California,
Formosa Betrayed is the story of FBI Agent Jake Kelly's (James Van Der
Beek) investigation of the murder of Henry Wen (Joseph Foronda), a
Taiwanese professor in Chicago. With the help of his partner Tom
Braxton (John Heard) and a sharp Chicago police detective (Leslie
Hope), Agent Kelly discovers that the murderers have fled to Taipei,
capital of Republic of China (Taiwan)."

Yes. Lot's of things happened in the past. How about trying to deal with
the way things are today. Would you say that China has no economic freedom

Vowed Colonel Kadafi - through his heir-apparent son, on TV.
Defying his warning, a sea of humanity turned out to protest
his autocratic regime. The uprising, is spreading like wild-
fire across a dry prairie.
Having smelled the Jasmine, they are not afraid of bullets.
They laid down their fallen, hid their wounded, then kept on
marching, demanding the ouster of the brutal dictator - with
tanks rumbling on the ground, and helicopter gunships circl-
ing over their heads.
Libya's military personnel, governmental employees and inter
-national diplomats are resigning en masse in protest of the
bloodbath and the brutality of the regime. The international
community, from the UN to the EU, are condemning the uncall-
ed for violence. Their Egyptian neighbors, having been newly
freed, are rushing medical and sundry other aids to help the
determined protesters. The cold hard steel of guns and tanks
is never a match for Jasmine's soft aromatic suppleness.
It is intoxicating, seductive and alluring ....

The past or the present or the future? Mainland China and Taiwan are
still fighting for the same thing as in 1947!!!! Taiwan was ruled by

Taiwan and Mainland China are nothing like they were in 1947. They've
signed all sorts of agreements and are working on more. One million
mainland tourists came to Taiwan last year.

no need for Taiwan to acquire 6 and a half billion dollars of advanced

Well, Hurray for Taiwan!!! They are coming to their senses. Except

Things can change overnight, as in Lybia, in Egypt, even in Mainland
China. Protest started peacefully enough in 6/4/1989. They didn't
what follows could happen in China, but it did.

What can Taiwan do to prepare for the wakening dragon? Besides, all
Taiwan manufacturing capabilities are now located in Mainland China.
Like the U.S., Taiwan has become a service economy.

The best thing for Taiwan to do is to come in and join the party.

Albert K. Fung
Has now reached the desert kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Its Face
-book generation is abuzz with twitter messages, calling for
show of force in the capital city, Riyadh, to demand reform.
The kingdom is one of 11 Egypt's that are ripe for uprising.
Nervous market participants pushed oil price to within a few
cents from USD 100 a barrel. If riots break out and oil prod
-uction in Saudia Arabia is affected, energy experts are ad-
vising their clients to be prepared for oil price to hit USD
150 per barrel.
Not taking any chance the Saudi King hastily returned to the
country and asked for a vigorous internal security review on
one hand, and promised speedy reforms on the other. With his
ginormous oil receipts, he ordered inflation stipend for all
his subjects, housing allowances and generous financial aids
for the country's youth to study abroad.
It remains to be seen whether women are allowed to vote, and
to drive. One key demand of the Facebook generation, is that
they not be ruled by the nearly-dead's. They are calling for
a younger average age of 40.
In any event, Saudi Arabia will never be the same afterward.
The younger generation woke up, and smelled the intoxicating
aroma of the sweet Jasmine. They will not let up until their
demands are met. The Saudi King, to his credit, said that he
is willing to listen - powerful testimonial to the stronger-
than-steel strength of a remarkable plant.
That supple, aromatic Jasmine .... :)

society an unimaginable amount of money. Let us look at the USA
statistic, it is said that "Among all Americans, 36.2 million people
paid for mental health services totaling $57.5 billion in 2006
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.2&filename=mentalcost2006usa.html>.
" For Canada it is said that "On any given day, 500,000 Canadians are
absent from work due to a form of mental illness – half a million
people
– at a total cost to the Canadian economy of more than $50 billion a
year in lost productivity
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.3&filename=mentalcostcanada.html>."
Based on USA and Canada, mental illness costs $107.5 billion a YEAR
but
we know that there are other countries who also suffer from similar
financial burden due to the mental illness scam . Based on the fact
that
there are 195 countries
<http://geography.about.com/cs/countries/a/numbercountries.htm> in
the
world,, I will put in is range of trillions annually just to provide
a
figure to the interested audience.
It doesn't take much to realize that mental illness costs
people unnecessary suffering. I have offered to challenge the psych
industry
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.4&filename=index2.html>
and given proof
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.5&filename=selfprot.html>why
mental illness is a scam. As I have stated before, mental illness is
a
created illness. I find it unacceptable to allow people to be
financially burden and having to deal with unnecessary suffering.
Therefore, I will resort to using the public to help me end mental
illness. Why on earth would I take the trouble to do such a thing? I
am
tired of the people in charge of society who would sit and do nothing
while people are made mentally ill. This is why I do it. There are
ways
in which the public can help me amass the resource I need to end
mental
illness. In comparison to what mental illness costs society, the
amount
I ask is insignificant. Given what mental illness costs annually
worldwide, the amount I ask for is meaningless to end the whole
mental
illness scam. Your contribution to the cause of helping me end mental
illness will be documented so that the world will know that you care
about people. As I have stated above, the cost annually worldwide is
trillions but I will just assume a cost of $1 trillion worldwide
annually. Is it too much to ask for 1% of $1 trillion to end mental
illness worldwide which equals $10 billion? Also take into account
that
the mental illness scam has existed for so long that the money that
was
wasted would total to an astronomical amount. There are expense that
has
to be taken in to consideration and people that will be used in the
process in ending the mental illness scam. The mental illness scam is
a
global problem and people all over the world can contribute to the
cause
of ending it.
There are many ways in which the mental illness scam can end but
so
far it has not. If what I do can lead to the mental illness scam
ending
directly or indirectly, then what I do is a service to the world. But
I
don't need $10 billion to end the mental illness scam, $1 billion
will
be sufficient to cover the expense which is a bargain in any
perspective. If I had $1 billion I would have spent it to end the
mental illness scam but I do not so I am counting on the public. This
is
just a step in achieving my goal so any contribution would help
towards
that outcome. There are so many charitable causes in the world that
continue to operate without any resolution but this one is different
because the mental illness scam will end and people will benefit
financially and mentally. Some of you may wonder how come I cannot be
stopped from what I am doing since I do not a medical degree? The
method
which I have outline to rid oneself of mental illness works as long
as
someone does not tamper with what you are doing. The method works
because mental illness is a scam. The government watchdog, drug
companies, researchers in the field of mental health have not end the
mental illness scam so this is the solution which I propose;
financially
support me in my quest to end the mental illness scam.
The contribution that you are making is a step in ending the
mental
illness scam. It can trigger people 's awareness of mental illness
being
a scam. Those agencies which monitored the area of mental health, law
enforcement, etc, who have decided not to take action may take
action.
It can also give you the peace of mind that the end result of your
contribution will result in the ending of the mental illness scam as
it
will be used for that purpose. The mental illness scam continues to
operate because there is nobody like myself who existed that would
take
it this far to challenge the psych industry
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.4&filename=index2.html>.
We want to live life free from being made mentally ill. Your
contribution is to help me help society.

The dictator that ruled Libya for 40+ years, with iron fist,
is now confined to merely the capital city of Tripoli. While
the protesters are firmly controlling the rest of the count-
ry. Which, is lowly returning back to normal, bit by bit.
The Colonel vowed to become a martyr, then to leave Tripoli.
Around him his power base is crumbling fast. Defections left
the gentleman with neither a military, nor a government. Two
fighter jets were ordered to bomb a protester stronghold but
the pilots ejected in midair and crashed the planes harmless
-ly into Libya's western desert.
Under the leadership of the American Empire, the internation
=al community powwowed, but failed to agree on the measures.
A no fly zone and humanitarian corridor to be imposed by the
US Fifth Fleet and NATO forces were discussed.
China vehemently opposed any intervening. Her ruling elites,
without doubt, are fearful that those measures would be used
against them when the time came. China, is on the list of 11
Egypt's ripe for popular uprising. It's no longer the quest-
ion of whether the sweet Jasmine fragrance will reach China.
But when ....

Were not at all a match for the chants and fists of the peo-
ple. Using nothing more than their bare hands, determination
and will power, the Libyan protesters are seizing city after
city and oil field after oil field. Remarkably they have the
presence of the minds to put them under the control of local
committees before moving on.
It is sublimely exciting tour de force of the Jasmine power.
Now, they are closing in on the dictator, and, his loyalists
holed up in parts of the capital city of Tripoli. Their com-
plete lack of fear is especially inspiring when one realizes
that for over four decades, they've been ruthlessly ruled by
guns, bullets and deliberately instilled fear.
Now, having been awoken by that sweet, intoxicating aroma of
Jasmine flower, the Libyans are not willing to go back, even
if it means death. It is a powerful testimonial to the admon
-ition of China's Laozi the wise to dictators and potentates
of the world that when people are not afraid to die guns and
bullets are of no use.
Remarkably, Libya's second largest city, Benghazi, is slowly
returning to normal. It is run by a ragtag committee, of jud
-ges, lawyers, professionals and respected citizens. They're
sending young men out to the streets to direct traffics, and
to keep order. Libyan protesters are determined to prove the
Colonel and his heir-apparent son wrong when they emphatical
-ly insisted on TV, that the country would be in total chaos
and descend into civil war.
Without them ....
PS: The commander-in-chief of the American Empire had spoken
and warned of serious consequences for those who instig-
ated violence against the people. The gentleman from Ill
-inois directed his chief manager of world countries, to
mount a unified, coordinated effort to assist the people
of Libya.

The Libyan protesters are tightening their noose. The dictat
-or is loosing grounds, literally and figuratively :), fast.
As a testimony to his desperation, he is offering USD 400 to
every Libyan family. Undoubtedly, a cue taken from the Saudi
King, who offered his subjects wages and benefits increases,
to help them cope with the ravaging food inflation.
Inflation, injustice, etc. are elements share by 11 Egypt's.
Seven defected former colonels in the Libya army are now put
in charge of planning and executing the steady march towards
Tripoli, the capital city - to deliver the coup de grace for
Libya's dictator of 40+ years.
In domino fashion, all the cities and towns along their way,
are defecting gleefully. Their young men are volunteering in
droves. As a result, the rank of protesters are swelling gi-
normously. They assist in the search for guns and weapons in
police stations and local army depots. Then, deliver them to
the protesters' headquarters in Benghazi for safe keeping.
The fear of the commander put in charge sent thousands of in
-filtrators into Tripoli to pave the way, ahead of the ginor
-mous army of protesters. His fear is that the youths in the
capital city may beat him to the punch. If that happens, the
dictator will be found in no less than fifty pieces. What he
wanted the most, is for the despot to face trial - holding a
bouquet.
Of the aromatic, intoxicating, supple jasmine flowers ... :)

Prices of corn, wheat and sundry other food grans resume the
unrelenting march skywards. They are poised to reach histor-
ic high, exceeding even those infamous 2008 levels that caus
-ed food riots all over the world.
The trigger is Saudi Arabia's announced food stipends boost.
Smart moneys are betting that fearful for their survival, re
-pressive regimes all over the world will follow suite soon.
None more so than that big elephant in the room - China. The
barrage of floods followed by droughts is wrecking ginormous
havoc in her bread and rice baskets.
Food inflation, is eating ordinary Chinese alive and there's
not any light at the end of the food tunnel. If anything, it
will get much worse. If China were to follow that example of
Libya's Kadafi of USD 400 per family, that would amount to a
ginormous pot of gold.
Worth USD 100-200 billion .... :)

Said the head of the newly formed provisional government for
all of Libya, in Benghazi, "one government, with one voice."
That, is a magnificent tour de force of the utter failure of
the divide-and-conquer policy of Colonel Kaddafi - by taking
advantage of complex tribal politics of the desert country.
And with that, a new Libya emerges - unified and democratic.
After seizing power, the citizens of Libya nominated the de-
fected justice minister to form a caretaker government - for
coordinating disparate efforts to overthrow the despot, con-
stituting and controlling the new military, providing human-
itarian and essential services, and receiving the tidal wave
of formal recognitions from the international community.
The former justice minister has been meeting tribal leaders,
and defected military commanders, to organize the dictator's
coup de grace in Tripoli. He is also busy organizing interim
elections to be held within three months, all over Libya, in
cities and towns.
A powerful testimony and moving tribute to the grassroot nat
-ure, and political sophistication of the uprising, is amply
demonstrated when he speaks on behalf of the interim govern-
ment, “Our only goal, is to liberate Libya from this regime,
and to allow the people to choose the government they want.”
“We want one country - there is no Islamic emirate." He off-
ered his afterthoughts, quite unconsciously, as if trying to
pave the way for his new country - to breakaway from the Em-
pire of Faith and to join the Empire of Liberty:
"Nor Al Qaeda, anywhere.” .... :)

Open your eyes and look around Libya. The country is 97% Muslim.
Democracy and Islamic principles are mutually exclusive. Look at the
Muslims living in the U.S. and Western Europe. They continue to live
the way all Muslims live in Muslims countries.
Right now, Libya is divided and Colonel Gadhafi has tanks and
weapons. Will the U.S. get involve in another shooting war in Libya?
No, we have more than we can handle. England also has more than they
can handle. Without help from the outside, there is no way the other
half of Libya can survive.

The Fifth Fleet of the American Empire, dispatched a special

government, militarily. Thanks to their coordination, the em

now locked onto Tripoli and vicinity, collecting a ginormous
amount information to help the Libyan ground commanders plan
their operations to seize the capital city militarily.
US depleted uranium anit-tank missiles are sent to Benghazi.
During the Gulf wars, Iraq's tanks and armored vehicles were
instantly vaporized by the deadly missiles upon contact. The
Colonel's tanks will not survive beyond the initial contact.
A sure sign of the rebel's commanding control and confidence
is that the Libyan oil is now, once again, flowing and ship-
ments overseas resumed. That will certainly drive down crude
oil prices when world markets open on Monday.
Country after country are now piling on to freeze the assets
of the dictator and his bank accounts. With no access to his
money, he will not be able to pay his loyalists. The gentle-
man from Illinois is tightening the proverbial screw further
by using the considerable soft power of the American Empire,
to sever all the money trails of the Colonel and his family.
That tactic brought Al Quaeda to their knees and had to hide
in caves.
The Colonel has not any place to hide .... :)

Errh, Mr. Fung, are you really so excited about a new Tripoli where
the winds blow DU and the water is too carcinogenic for drinking,
which will last a millennium?
Errh, Mr. Fung, do you think that Tripoli's air is just for Qaddafi to
breathe and nobody else will suffer once the dictator is "instantly

"Look Ma, no coup .... "
Said a Libyan youth, to his mother, who joined the the rank-
and-file of that country's remarkable popular uprising - the
historical jasmine revolution that is now awakening the peo-
ple across Arabia and toppling kings, potentates and dictat-
ors. The salient features of the Jasmine revolution, are its
orderliness amidst chaos, and, peacefulness amidst violence.
Shortly after it fell into the hands of the protesters, Beng
-hazi's motley citizens, from all walks of lives, pulled to-
gether and elected a caretaker city council to provide basic
city services and to maintain order.
"We surprise even ourselves." said the head of the council.
She added, "It is remarkable to see that in this traditional
-ly tribal society, people are stepping forward voluntarily,
to help provide services, and, to maintain peace and order -
banks are open, shops aren't closed." Umm Ahmed, the head of
the management committee for the provisional city council of
Benghazi wants to tell Washington: "Don’t worry. We ordinary
citizens are now running the show. The Islamists are nowhere
to be found."
All across liberated Libya a spirit of volunteerism and pull
-ing-together permeates the land. At “Voice of Free Libya,”
the country’s first uncensored radio station, are broadcast-
ing remarkable tales of strangers showing up with baskets of
food. In the courthouse, an old man scrubs toilets – his way
of doing something for his new country, he said.
All indications confirm that it is a bona fide revolution re
-miniscent of the one that mid-wifed the USA. Not a Hateful,
revengeful rebellion of the masses that pushed France into a
deep, dark abyss. Loudly and in unison, the Libyans are say-
ing to the world:
"We the people .... " :)

春運
窗外的火車聲又讓我失眠
望著破舊的小屋又住完一年
離春節的日子已經沒有多遠
可是我心裡的苦悶有誰能聽見
每當在這個時候習慣點支煙
想起家鄉的老母仿佛又在眼前
好想回家過年 又怕回家過年
為了夢想在外闖蕩實在太艱難
不敢回家過年
不是因為路途太遙遠
隻因為我的兜裡也確實沒有多少錢
不過回家過年
不是不想和家人團圓
多少年的寒窗，找工作咋就這麼難
電話裡的問候聲又讓我不安
聽著爸媽鼓舞的心裡發酸
離成功的日子呀 還有多遠
可是我心裡的壓力 有誰能分擔
每當在這個時候孤寂悲嘆
想起個人的問題已是剩男剩女
好想回家過年 又怕回家過年
有多少人能聽我把這歌兒唱完
不敢回家過年
不是因為不想念家園
隻因為我是城市的螞蟻收入太可憐
不敢回家過年
不是不想和家人團圓
沒錢沒房沒事業流浪
怎敢回家面對親人祖先。

No. It is not. The whole ballad has a strong Daoist favor.
Everything has its time. One's youthfulness frequently
leads him to wish something he has not experienced.
However, after he has thoroughly experienced what he
had wished, he finds the experience not something to
be savored.

I read this recently. Another kind of 近乡情更怯.
Frustration, sadness, fear of losing face. Yes. But not rage.
The emotion is directed inward, not outward.

In the lyrics ....
The singer is complaining about difficulty of finding a job,
poor pay and inhuman living and working conditions. The song
is very popular among China's ant tribe.
It resonates with them, tells their plights and sufferings.
The perpetrator of "愁" as "rage" wasn't this humble netter.
It was someone else, who posted the following to this thread
with the subject changed to "少年不識愁滋味 .... ":
"I only see "少年不识 rage 滋味，为赋新词强说 Jasmine."

assemblies to petition the government for grievances are met
with police brutalities, violence and terrors.
Then rage will ensure ....

Of course, it resonates with many Chinese inside as well as outside
of China. A good song is supposed to do that. A similar song written
by an American on his unemployment or underemployment experience
is likely to resonate with many Americans too. Anyway, there is no
rage in the song.

No, I did not say "愁" was "rage".

The stanza was used as a frame. A better rendition would be I only
see
"少年不识 X 滋味，为赋新词强说 Y. X = rage; Y = Jasmine."
Of course, at any one time, some people will know sadness and/or
rage. But these people are not the same group asking for Jasmine.

Feel free to share your experience and its resultant rage which

To the shores of Tripoli .... (Battle Hymn of the US Marine)
The US Marine Expeditionary Force was established in 1806 by
President Thomas Jefferson. Then was a backwater country, he
refused to pay ransoms to the pirates who had been harassing
US merchant ships. The gentleman from Virginia sent the new-
ly established US Marines to the far away shores of Tripoli.
Now US Marines are ordered to the shores of Tripoli, again.
With that, history had come full circle. Now a global hege-
monic empire, the 36th US Marine Expeditionary Unit was or-
dered by their commander-in-chief to head for Libya - to en
-gage the despot of Tripoli.
Aircraft carrier USS Enterprise, leading a battle group, is
also heading for the Mediterranean. Leaded by USS Kearsarge
an amphibious task group was summoned to duty - off the Lib
-yan coasts. Once there, they will await orders from their
commander-in-chief to engage the new enemy of the empire.
The American Empire's high profile flexing of hard power is
to provide military options for the gentleman from Illinois
on the Libyan uprising. Who also ordered his chief manager
of world states to orchestrate and coordinate unified inter
-national actions to dispose the gentleman from Tripoli and
to discourage him from hanging onto his dwindling power, at
all cost. At her disposal, is the the empire's considerable
soft power. Some may say that the UN is a stooge of the Am-
erican Empire. But it is neither united, nor a nation.

doors, it is obvious that homosexuality is accepted by the mainstream
of the campus community.
Pride Alliance is a large organization that receives recognition by
George Mason University’s administration as a legit outfit.
Other student organizations see the agenda of Pride Alliance and the
overall gay rights movement to be quite valid, with Hillel co-
sponsoring a Pride Alliance event last semester called “Twice
Blessed,” the implication being that to be homosexual is just as much
a blessing as to be part of the Chosen People.
However, being homosexual is far from an equivalent to Judaism, as
evidenced by psychology. Although not widely acknowledged,
homosexuality does fit its former status as a paraphilia, or mental
disorder pertaining to sexual arousal.
Those who have kept track of homosexuality’s status in American
society know that homosexuality was taken out of the American
Psychiatric Association’s DSM list of mental disorders back in 1973.
This laconic defense ignores problems with the decision.
Even sympathizers with the APA’s decision admit that politics, rather
than science, was the chief reason for removal.
Gay gene proponent Simon LeVay concedes, “Gay activism was clearly the
force that propelled the APA to declassify homosexuality.”
Also, the final tally was not impressive. The vote was 5,584 to 3,810
out of about 30,000 APA members, meaning that only about 37 percent of
the APA took part in the decision.
In total, only approximately 20 percent of the organization actually
said yes to removal, meaning that as much as 80 percent of the APA in
1973 might have opposed removal.
Furthermore, the decision did not fully eradicate psychology’s
condemnation of this now acceptable act, as “ego-dystonic
homosexuality” remained on the books until the 1980s. Yet, as Dr.
David S. Holmes noted, “because of changes in social norms and strong
political pressures … homosexuality was not listed as a disorder.”
In other words, not science, but politics, was the chief factor.
Even APA elites condemn that portion of the political intrusion into
psychology, with the current APA President Gerald P. Koocher stating
at a town hall meeting, “APA has no conflict with psychologists who
help those distressed by unwanted homosexual attraction."
Many have said homosexuality is acceptable because the homosexual does
not feel distress over his or her sexual orientation. From the 1973
decision and to this very day, that argument has been used extensively
and advanced continually as seen with gay parades, movies and of
course organizations who name themselves “Pride” Alliance.
However, just because an individual does not directly feel distress
over a disorder does not make the disorder normal. There are a whole
host of mental disorders known as ego-syntonic disorders.
An ego-syntonic disorder is a mental disorder in which the sufferer
considers their disorder to be crucial to their sense of self.
Individuals who suffer from an ego-syntonic disorder seldom feel
distress directly. Homosexuality would not be the only ego-syntonic
paraphilia, as frotteurism and voyeurism have ego-syntonic
variations.
Others have argued that homosexuality is genetic and therefore cannot
be any more unnatural than being red-haired or black. Now, the
argument of a genetic origin for homosexuality is dubious unto itself,
but assuming the claim is true would make no difference. Several
disorders, including Down syndrome, depression and schizophrenia, have
genetic origins. None of these disorders are being taken out of the
current DSM-IV.
So, if these various reasons for keeping homosexuality out of the DSM
list of paraphilias are poor, are there good reasons for putting it
back? There are three characteristics found in every mental disorder:
extent of distress, impairment in life and abnormality of behavior.
Granted these earmarks for disorder are often socially constructed,
but still one can feasibly have homosexuality fit all three. Regarding
distress, there are plenty of homosexuals who do not desire their
sexual orientation.
On the ego-syntonic level, homosexuality has been shown to be co-
morbid with borderline personality disorder and gender identity
disorder. Impairment would involve social requirements being missed.
This can be applied to individuals who are able to perform the cross-
culturally required reproduction and continuation of the community but
do not because they feel mentally unable to.
Abnormality of behavior is obvious, given the strong correlates with
counterculture, various drug excesses, and Gender Identity Disorder,
or as I like to name it, the next disorder to be taken out of the DSM
because of politics.
Pride Alliance has a great acceptance here on campus, especially from
university administration and fellow student organizations. Its agenda
has a growing popularity and its Pride Week gets on the school
calendars each academic year without fail. Hopefully people will come
to understand that being widely accepted does not make it accurate.

Had, finally, reached China. Her ruling elites awoke in cold
sweat and vowed real changes. China's National People's Con-
gress is powwowing in BJ. In his keynote address to the gath
-ering, Premier Wen issued blunt warnings to his colleagues,
about the country's regime changing issues: rampant corrupt-
ions, income disparity, high inflation and social unrests.
He acknowledged there's "great resentment" among the masses.
The gentleman promised increased government spending on soc-
ial programs - job creation, health care, low-income housing
and pensions. China's runaway inflation, he warned, is lead-
ing to rapidly rising food, housing, energy and other costs.
He promised that fighting inflation will be the top priority
of his government.
Eerily, all of those promises sounds quite familiar .... :)

China places stability, strength above all
By Bill Schiller
Asia Bureau
Toronto Star
March 04, 2011
BEIJING Compared to the conflict and chaos spilling into the streets
of
north Africa and the Middle East, the scene that will unfold Saturday
at
Beijing s Great Hall of the People promises to be positively sublime.
The opening of the National People s Congress China s rubber-stamp
legislature is a festive, annual rite of spring in the Chinese
capital, providing a platform for the country s rulers to highlight
successes of the past year and to lay out plans for more.
It s as close as one gets to a binding political moment in China part
state of the union, part throne speech.
With the advisory People s Consultative Conference also meeting,
Beijing
will host 10 days of Communist Party hoopla and policy discussion.
But this year s conferences are likely to be more: a forum to reflect
on
the fruits of China s stability.
As riots rock successive countries abroad and economies go up in
smoke,
China remains comparatively calm and its leaders assert prosperity
has been the result.
In the Communist Party playbook stability trumps all; with it, China
s
leaders have been able to deliver the goods in the form of decades of
double-digit growth.
On Saturday Premier Wen Jiabao is likely to introduce a new five-year
plan that will aim to moderate growth and stimulate spending.
But the real significance of the gathering goes far beyond
spreadsheets
and spending plans: it s a stage from which to trumpet the success of
the Chinese Model, one that puts economics before any notion of
individual rights.
As much as anything else, this week s conferences will project the
power
and competence of the Communist Party of China.
As American power and international status wanes and other countries
find themselves embroiled in homegrown uprisings, China continues to
gather strength and so, of course, does its ruling party.
It wasn t supposed to be like this at least according to Western
thinking.
Academics and politicians have long predicted that China will
eventually
turn toward Western democracy. But that hasn t happened not yet.
Today, such predictions seem to be receding into the landscape and
might
be approaching the vanishing point.
In today s China, according to author Richard McGregor, whose recent
book The Party is the definitive work on China s rulers, the freedom
to
consume . . . is much more attractive than vague notions of
democracy.
China s rulers have been able to provide what McGregor and others
call
market Leninism, an innovative mix of market principles and Leninist
control.
People are given enough space to get ahead, he points out, provided
they
steer clear of any notion of democratic politics.
The idea that China would one day become a democracy was always a
Western notion, born of theories about how political systems evolve,
McGregor wrote recently in Foreign Policy. Yet all evidence so far
suggests these theories are wrong.
The international financial crisis of 2008 ultimately proved to be a
shot in the arm for the party, McGregor said in a telephone interview
Thursday.
The financial crisis was just a killer for the western brand in China
and a godsend for the party leadership because, essentially, all
their
propaganda about the West came through.
Since then, the party hasn t looked back.
Today it is stronger and more powerful than ever, McGregor says. But
they are also still deeply, deeply insecure.
Some of that insecurity was on display Sunday when the Chinese
government sent legions of police into the streets of central Beijing
to
quell what they thought could be serious anti-government rally,
triggered by an online call for the Chinese to emulate Tunisia s
Jasmine
Revolution.
The rally never really materialized, but numbers of foreign
journalists
were roughed up, knocked to the ground, detained and a couple
seriously
beaten.
It might have been a massive overreaction, McGregor observes, but I
guess that s part of their strength.
There are many other strengths underlining the party s intention not
just to survive, but thrive.
Over the years the party has built what appears to be an
insurmountable
bulwark against all comers, says McGregor.
As he sees it, they have emasculated all political rivals, eliminated
the independence of the courts and the media, reined in religion and
civil society, denigrated other versions of nationhood, consolidated
all
political power, expanded the security police and put dissidents
behind
bars.
One might call these the Seven Steps to Invincibility.
Will the Chinese Communist Party rule forever, McGregor is asked?
Certainly for the foreseeable future, he says.

Want to end your mental illness?
It doesn't take much to realize that mental illness itself costs
society an unimaginable amount of money. Let us look at the USA
statistic, it is said that "Among all Americans, 36.2 million people
paid for mental health services totaling $57.5 billion in 2006
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.2&filename=mentalcost2006usa.html>.
" For Canada it is said that "On any given day, 500,000 Canadians are
absent from work due to a form of mental illness – half a million
people
– at a total cost to the Canadian economy of more than $50 billion a
year in lost productivity
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.3&filename=mentalcostcanada.html>."
Based on USA and Canada, mental illness costs $107.5 billion a YEAR
but
we know that there are other countries who also suffer from similar
financial burden due to the mental illness scam . Based on the fact
that
there are 195 countries
<http://geography.about.com/cs/countries/a/numbercountries.htm> in
the
world,, I will put in is range of trillions annually just to provide
a
figure to the interested audience.
It doesn't take much to realize that mental illness costs
people unnecessary suffering. I have offered to challenge the psych
industry
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.4&filename=index2.html>
and given proof
<mailbox:///P%7C/ThunderbirdPortable/Data/profile/Mail/Local%20Folders/
Templates?number=30801708&part=1.5&filename=selfprot.html>why
mental illness is a scam. As I have stated before, mental illness is
a
created illness. I find it unacceptable to allow people to be
financially burden and having to deal with unnecessary suffering.
Therefore, I will resort to using the public to help me end mental
illness. Why on earth would I take the trouble to do such a thing? I
am
tired of the people in charge of society who would sit and do nothing
while people are made mentally ill. This is why I do it. There are
ways
in which the public can help me amass the resource I need to end
mental
illness. In comparison to what mental illness costs society, the
amount
I ask is insignificant. Given what mental illness costs annually
worldwide, the amount I ask for is meaningless to end the whole
mental
illness scam. Your contribution to the cause of helping me end mental
illness will be documented so that the world will know that you care
about people. As I have stated above, the cost annually worldwide is
trillions but I will just assume a cost of $1 trillion worldwide
annually. Is it too much to ask for 1% of $1 trillion to end mental
illness worldwide which equals $10 billion? Also take into account
that
the mental illness scam has existed for so long that the money that
was
wasted would total to an astronomical amount. There are expense that
has
to be taken in to consideration and people that will be used in the
process in ending the mental illness scam. The mental illness scam is
a
global problem and people all over the world can contribute to the
cause
of ending it.
There are many ways in which the mental illness scam can end but
so
far it has not. If what I do can lead to the mental illness scam
ending
directly or indirectly, then what I do is a service to the world. But
I
don't need $10 billion to end the mental illness scam, $1 billion
will
be sufficient to cover the expense which is a bargain in any
perspective. If I had $1 billion I would have spent it to end the
mental illness scam but I do not so I am counting on the public. This
is
just a step in achieving my goal so any contribution would help
towards
that outcome. There are so many charitable causes in the world that
continue to operate without any resolution but this one is different
because the mental illness scam will end and people will benefit
financially and mentally. Some of you may wonder how come I cannot be
stopped from what I am doing since I do not a medical degree? The
method
which I have outline to rid oneself of mental illness works as long
as
someone does not tamper with what you are doing. The method works
because mental illness is a scam. The government watchdog, drug
companies, researchers in the field of mental health have not end the
mental illness scam so this is the solution which I propose;
financially
support me in my quest to end the mental illness scam.
The contribution that you are making is a step in ending the
mental
illness scam. It can trigger people 's awareness of mental illness
being
a scam. Those agencies which monitored the area of mental health, law
enforcement, etc, who have decided not to take action may take
action.
It can also give you the peace of mind that the end result of your
contribution will result in the ending of the mental illness scam as
it
will be used for that purpose. The mental illness scam continues to
operate because there is nobody like myself who existed that would
take
it this far to challenge the psych industry

For understandable reasons, have shifted from the heart warm
-ing stories of the Jasmine Revolution in the Middle East to
the gut wrenching tales of the apocalypse in Japan. It isn't
at all a surprise, in that light, that an earth shaking (pun
intended) event, that is fundamentally game changing in geo-
politics received next to no notice from world media.
The Arab League expelled Libya and seek no-fly zone over it.
To say that this is a historical move by the 22-nation bloc,
is an understatement. It is extraordinary that the venerable
body expelled a fellow member on one hand, and invited west-
ern military to set foot on Arab soil. Their move, will also
put ginormous pressure on those two lone opponents to the no
-fly zone demand - China and Russia.
The American Empire had already done quite a bit to help the
Libyan popular uprising, with her considerable hard and soft
powers. And is continuing to tighten the proverbial "screws"
on the Colonel and his family. Those high level helpers were
warned of post-revolution trials on ground of crimes against
humanity.
The gentleman from Illinois clearly enunciated his war doct-
rine on behalf of the empire on two separate occasions - the
Nobel Peace prize and West Point speeches. Now, step by step
the American Empire's commander-in-chief is thoughtfully and
methodically putting meat to the bones of his doctrine guid-
ed policies. Henceforth, the USA will return to her historic
-al role.

Better smear some more of that jasmine oil on your husband's dick and

The government unleashed its security apparatus and employed
deadly force. Its harsh crackdown, and brutality, killed and
wounded many protesters.
UN Secretary General Mr. Ban Ki-moon issued a stern warning:
"The use of lethal force against peaceful demonstrators, and
their arbitrary arrests are unacceptable ... " the gentleman
said on Friday.
Syria, is one of 11 potential Egypt's ....

Cancer The Deadly Legacy of the Invasion of Iraq
by Jalal Ghazi
Forget about oil, occupation, terrorism or even Al Qaeda. The real
hazard for Iraqis these days is cancer. Cancer is spreading like
wildfire in Iraq. Thousands of infants are being born with deformities.
Doctors say they are struggling to cope with the rise of cancer and
birth defects, especially in cities subjected to heavy American and
British bombardment.
Here are a few examples. In Falluja, which was heavily bombarded by the
US in 2004, as many as 25% of new- born infants have serious
abnormalities, including congenital anomalies, brain tumors, and neural
tube defects in the spinal cord.
The cancer rate in the province of Babil, south of Baghdad has risen
from 500 diagnosed cases in 2004 to 9,082 in 2009 according to Al
Jazeera English.
In Basra there were 1885 diagnosed cases of cancer in 2005. According to
Dr. Jawad al Ali, director of the Oncology Center, the number increased
to 2,302 in 2006 and 3,071 in 2007. Dr. Ali told Al Jazeera English that
about 1,250-1,500 patients visit the Oncology Center every month now.
Not everyone is ready to draw a direct correlation between allied
bombing of these areas and tumors, and the Pentagon has been skeptical
of any attempts to link the two. But Iraqi doctors and some Western
scholars say the massive quantities of depleted uranium used in U.S. and
British bombs, and the sharp increase in cancer rates are not
unconnected.
Dr Ahmad Hardan, who served as a special scientific adviser to the World
Health Organization, the United Nations and the Iraqi Ministry of
Health, says that there is scientific evidence linking depleted uranium
to cancer and birth defects. He told Al Jazeera English, "Children with
congenital anomalies are subjected to karyotyping and chromosomal
studies with complete genetic back-grounding and clinical assessment.
Family and obstetrical histories are taken too. These international
studies have produced ample evidence to show that depleted uranium has
disastrous consequences."
Iraqi doctors say cancer cases increased after both the 1991 war and the
2003 invasion. Abdulhaq Al-Ani, author of "Uranium in Iraq" told Al
Jazeera English that the incubation period for depleted uranium is five
to six years, which is consistent with the spike in cancer rates in
1996-1997 and 2008-2009.
There are also similar patterns of birth defects among Iraqi and Afghan
infants who were also born in areas that were subjected to depleted
uranium bombardment.
Dr. Daud Miraki, director of the Afghan Depleted Uranium and Recovery
Fund, told Al Jazeera English he found evidence of the effect of
depleted uranium in infants in eastern and south- eastern Afghanistan.
"Many children are born with no eyes, no limbs, or tumors protruding
from their mouths and eyes," said Dr. Miraki.
It's not just Iraqis and Afghans. Babies born to American soldiers
deployed in Iraq during the 1991 war are also showing similar defects.
In 2000, Iraqi biologist Huda saleh Mahadi pointed out that the hands of
deformed American infants were directly linked to their shoulders, a
deformity seen in Iraqi infants.
Many US soldiers are now referring to Gulf War Syndrome #2 and alleging
they have developed cancer because of exposure to depleted uranium in
Iraq.
But soldiers can end their exposure to depleted uranium when their
service in Iraq ends. Iraqi civilians have nowhere else to go. The
water, soil and air in large areas of Iraq, including Baghdad, are
contaminated with depleted uranium that has a radioactive half-life of
4.5 billion years.
Dr. Doug Rokke, former director of the U.S. Army's Depleted Uranium
Project during the first Gulf War, was in charge of a project of
decontaminating American tanks. He told Al Jazeera English that "it took
the U.S. Department of Defense in a multi-million dollar facility with
trained physicists and engineers, three years to decontaminate the 24
tanks that I sent back to the U.S." And he added, "What can the average
Iraqi do with thousands and thousands of trash and destroyed vehicles
spread across the desert and other areas?"
According to Al Jazeera, the Pentagon used more than 300 tons of
depleted uranium in 1991. In 2003, the United States used more than
1,000 tons.

The types of cancer are similar to that in the Hiroshima and Nagasaki
survivors who were exposed to nuclear fallout. (GETTY)
A report has been published indicating cancers and other diseases in the
Iraqi city of Fallujah are significantly higher than those of the
survivors of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombs of 1945.
The survey found that in the five years following the 2004 attacks by
USA-led forces there has been a four-fold increase in all cancer.
The types of cancer are similar to that in the Hiroshima and Nagasaki
survivors who were exposed to nuclear fallout.
Researchers found a 12 fold increase in child hood cancers since 2004.
"Far fewer boys were born than girls and this is a well known expression
of genetic which was found after Hiroshima." Said report writer Dr Chris
Busby.
Fallujah is less than 65km from Baghdad.

Doubling of Childhood Leukemia Rates Confirmed in Southern Iraq
ScienceDaily (Feb. 20, 2010) ‹ Childhood leukemia rates have more than
doubled over the last 15 years in the southern Iraq province of Basrah,
according to the study, "Trends in Childhood Leukaemia in Basrah, Iraq
(1993-2007), published in the American Journal of Public Health.
The authors, three of whom are from the University of Washington, say
they hope their calculations can now pave the way for an investigation
into reasons why the rates have climbed so high, and why they are higher
than found in nearby Kuwait, or in the European Union or the United
States.
The study documents 698 cases of leukemia for children aged 0-14 during
the 15-year period, with a peak of 211 cases in 2006. Younger children
had higher rates than older ones.
"By using a hospital cancer registry, we were able to measure a jump in
leukemia rates from 3 per 100,000 youngsters in the first part of our
study period, to a rate of almost 8 and a half in the final three
years," said UW Department of Global Health faculty member Amy Hagopian,
the paper's lead author.
By comparison, Hagopian said, the European Union and the United States
report rates of 4 and 5 per 100,000, respectively. She also noted Kuwait
reports a rate of approximately 2 per 100,000 and Oman reports rates
between 2 and 3, depending on the gender of the child (boys typically
have higher rates, as do children from higher socio-economic classes).
"Studying childhood diseases in war situations is difficult," Hagopian
noted. "Aside from the normal difficulties of controlling for referral
patterns changes caused by war-time conditions, the political situation
is also challenging. We were constantly worried about the political
risks our medical colleagues were taking by collecting and reporting
these data."
Another author of the paper, UW Department of Epidemiology Chairman
Scott Davis, noted, "Another challenge was securing population data for
purposes of calculating rates." He said census data were not collected
after the U.S. invasion of Iraq and population patterns were thought to
be disrupted by migration patterns, as well. Study authors say they used
the most conservative assumptions available, so as not to overstate
their findings.
The study was conceived by faculty at University of Washington and two
Iraqi universities -- Mustansiriya University in Baghdad and Basrah
University -- and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle.
The authors formed an ongoing partnership to support public health in
Iraq after the 2003 U.S. invasion.
During the period studied, Basrah and its highly populated surrounding
area, which includes farmland and oil fields, became a modern
battlefield, pummeled by three consecutive wars, including the Iran-Iraq
war in the 1980s, the first U.S. invasion in 1991and the second U.S.
invasion in 2003.
The researchers now seek to understand the cause of Iraq's increased
rate of child leukemia by conducting a case-control study to compare
children who got leukemia with those who did not. That sort of study
allows researchers to see if there were differences in exposures between
the cases and the controls. Some increased exposures related to child
leukemia could include the byproducts of regional petroleum fires and
benzene, which comes from gasoline sold by children at the side of the
road as a result of disrupted fuel supplies, war-related nerve agents
and pesticides, and the widespread use of depleted uranium munitions.
