jyi # 716y US & Law : Is anyone buying ethics ?
Below is a relevant story -by one of my favorite people- on this issue. But first are a few newsbits that tend to support what I note here and in my blog, jewsyonkersislamiii-tc.blogspot.com .
12-17-09 :
INTERNATIONAL
New York Times(NYT), p.A8 Who dares define who -or what- is a Jew ? The British high court just did. As I see it, if we use DNA...analysis, I'm pretty sure we'd find "Jewish" genes
in most people - along with everybody else's genes, as well.
NYT, p.A18 A Saudi diplomat is sorry that "Arab leaders have failed to produce a Palestinian (loads of "Jewish" genes there) state". But the real reason for such has more to do with overpopulation and under-resourced room for that state.
NYT, p.A26 NATO is seeking Russian military aid in Afghanistan - and that is an excellent idea. There should be far more actual and effective cooperation and collaboration between NATO, the USA, Russia, China, Pakistan, Brazil...
POLITICS
Journal News(JN), p.3A Westchester County Board of Legislators chairman Bill Ryan wants to trim government. My friend Bill is right, but such trimming should not be just in Westchester but nationwide. And include all the feminist Democratic Party excess garbage that is strangling our country ; the Republicans, being brain-dead, dont get it though.
Daily News(DN), 12-16-09, p.29 We are in a debt hole which constantly gets deeper as Obama and the US Congress dig us deeper and deeper. In truth, we ALL have to take responsibility for our (immorality of a) lack of adequate common goals. Entitlement spending of ALL kinds (welfare, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, pensions...) is grossly high and unsustainable TODAY - and it cripples us ever more every day. Its very near -indeed, present- consequence is dropping standards of living for everyone, not just for future generations.
MOTIVATION
DN, 12-16-09, p.26 "OCD" is about "rituals" and "religion" - to excess. As I see it, "meds" are counter-productive in many cases. And, our world today is too focused on "intelectual" pursuits and too little on "physical / whole-body" pursuits.
NYT, p.A43 "Upper East Side of NYC (among America's wealthiest zip codes) is choking on polluted air" - coal, oil, gas pollution, with all the associated cancers, heart and lung disease... therefrom. Such just goes to prove that we are all in this (on this polluted and dying planet earth) together. And even the greatest wealth wont save anyone.
JN, p.21A "Juvenile Justice system in crisis" ? As I see it, America itself is "in crisis" from the feminist nonsense that men and women are "equal", that which has polluted our nation's (and the wider world's) psyche'. Indeed, the law is an ass - especially when asses (lawyers) make it.
Catholic New York(CNY), p.11 "A moral problem" is "the deterioration of the planet (Earth)...(which) threatens peace and human life itself".
Westchester Guardian(WG), p.3 "Slippery Slope of Soft Corruption" by the editor, Richard Blassberg (a hell of a nice guy - a former Yonkers Probation Officer). The piece is about Ken Jenkins supposedly living a few blocks outside of the District he represents. At a Westchester County Board of Legislators meeting a week or so ago (from which Mr. Blasssberg drove me home), Richard and I had a slight disagreement. He was of the opinion that the law must be followed by dotting every i and crossing every t. As I see it, competence can be far more important - especially when "the law is an ass", as I've spent my life proving (read my blog AND jewsyonkersislam-legal/actions.blogspot.com). Ken is far more competent than anyone else in "his" district and likely to do far more and far better than any other. Indeed, I mentioned that Richard's picture of Ken on the first page of his paper made it seem like he wanted Ken to run for US Senate - which he told Ken when I called Ken over as he entered for that night's meeting. In addition, numerous top jurists and legal scholars have written about how the law must change to accurately reflect the conditions of the day. Yet we have a long way to go before we can even approach that state and condition.
JN, p.15A Parents fight for son's long hair against a school-wide ban. To me it seems like more excess feminist civil rights garbage and selfish nonsense.
NYT, p. A37 "Water word found". Many more such "water worlds" must be found so we, the human race, can expand and grow on them. So that we dont kill ourselves all off in the next few years.
What are / is ethics - aside from justice or balance or a branch of political science, of course ? And can ethics also include gross, stupid and selfish ignorance ? In truth, I dont see why it cant include all of the above and more.
Lack of Ethical Standards Define Bruno Conviction By Hezi Aris
Bruno_Joe Albany, NY -- Former Senate Majority Leader Joseph L. Bruno was found guilty on two of eight felony counts in his criminal trial today. Bruno was found guilty on a count involving 11 mailings of checks in 2004 in connection with his firm Capital Business Consultants. Bruno was further found guilty on a count involving a racehorse partnership with Loudonville businessman Jared Abbruzzese. Bruno's conviction is testimony to his lack of comprehending that he did wrong (or his fear of far more that he could be found out to have done more - and be convicted of having done).
The jury found Bruno not guilty on five other counts. On the final count, the jury was deadlocked, and no verdict was reached.
The 80-year-old Republican from Brunswick sat quietly as the jury of seven women and five men rendered its verdict at approximately 4:15 p.m.: Guilty on two counts of mail and wire fraud.
The jury found Bruno did not perform legitimate (in politics, is and "work" really "legitimate" ?) work for the Abbruzzese companies — and that the payments were, in effect, gifts.
He was also convicted of failing to disclose his participation in a partnership with Abbruzzese that involved thoroughbred race horses.
Bruno, standing outside the courthouse, said: "It goes without saying I'm very, very disappointed with the verdict I just heard. The legal process is going to continue, and in my mind and in my heart, it's not over until it's over—and it's far from over."

jewsyonkersislam # 716x US & Law : cant afford senior citizens
jyi # 716x US & Law : cant afford senior citizens
Below is a relevant story on this matter. In all truth, we can barely afford anything the way we are going in America today (thanks primarily to the feminist nonsense that men and women are equal, that which the Democratic Party is drowning in and which makes the Republicans... brain-dead). We are nearly flat-out bankrupt, printing ever-worthless paper money.
But first I note a few newsbits that tend to substantiate what I note here and in my blog, jewsyonkersislamiii-tc.blogspot.com .
HEALTH CARE
Journal News(JN),.10A, 12-13-09 Democrats' Health Bill will raise costs and it isn't proving to be very effective.
New York Times(NYT), p.B1, 12-9-09 Trying to cut health care costs (there is an enormous amount of money wasted) always leads to "politically potent scare stories" and politicians run scared. "(H)ome health care....overpayments (and fraud)" are one of the greatest sources of waste. And special interests (AARP, cosmetic surgeons...) make everything worse.
SEX
Daily News(DN), p.3, 12-10-09 Boss (Bruce Springsteen) sings out -quite wrongly(see my blog)- for gays in New Jersey.
DN, p.3, 12-10-09 Liza Minelli settles a legal action brought by her bodyguard claiming she would beat him when she was drunk and force him to have sex with her when she wasn't.
MOTIVATION
NYT Mag., p.62, 12-13-09 Free speech and communication erodes despots' authority. But without adequate common goals, such can become excessive overanalysis leading to paralysis and an absence of the needed hard work - which is our situation in America, the West...today. Real problems are not being solved because this feminist nonsensicality impedes critical thinking.
NYT Mag., p.67, 12-13-09 "Treating PTSD with Tetris" What this does is to allow healthy, wholesome (non-conscious awareness) 'eternal' present reminicences / connections to occur and operate on their own. It is "abreactional".
NYT Mag, p.22, 12-13-09 Politics, philosophy, boundary-setting (context and meaning), language-creation, survival... Here we have the limited human consciousness (human language) pitted against the infinite and unlimited 'eternal' present. As to same-sex marraige and homosexuality in general, such is non-survival prone (see my blog) and must not be -even though it(homosexuality...) does occur. The Episcopal church is homosexuality-central, decaying ever more with feminist nonsense - even though its music may be great. "Christian otherworldliness" is an extreme, and Jewish concreteness is refreshing. But what is "justice" ? Balance ? If so -as I believe it is- and as "justice (must be done) in this world", many things must change. For we are so far out of balance -because of the feminist nonsense that men and women are "equal" (they aren't) and which allows homosexuality to flourish- that unless we start changing immediately, the human race may become extinct in the next few years.
NYT, 12-12-09, p.A19 What is "the Paranormal" ? "Spirituality" ? "Religion or mystical experience (which is defined as) a moment of sudden religious insight or awakening" ?
Should we "bend dogmas to fit (our)selves (or) bend (our)selves to fit the dogmas" ?
Are all dogmas right, wrong, maybe...and who decides ?
12-16-09 :
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES
SEX
DN, p.6 "(V)ideo pervert (ah, these women, reporters or peep-ees)... peeping Tom (hey, that's my name - and what I've done at least since I was 7 years old)".
The perp videotaped a naked ESPN TV reporter and posted it on the web. Is that wrong ? He didn't try to hide anything - and she is a looker. Did it "rip apart" her career ? No way : it enhanced it immeasurably - she should by paying him, not singing out in court against him. She -as all women- has been sadly misinformed by the feminist nonsense that men and women are equal. They aren't and double standards are essential.
Journal News(JN), p.12A "Washington,DC legalizes gay marriage" - wrong. But such could be expected from the most liberal and Democratic-party dominated region in the USA. And that is why I'll destroy liberalism and the Democratic Party - and the Republicans... if they continue to remain brain-dead.
NYT, p.A36 "Transgender" people. Why are there such - as well as gays, lesbians and other pervesions of reality ? Individual cases are each different, but overall, such is the fault of the aforementioned nonsense that men and women are equal.
POLITICS
NYT, p.A42 NYS "Legislature in denial". These part-time legislators make at least $80,000.00 a year to do nothing at all. They are most skilled at blaming everyone and anyone other than themselves for any and all problems in government.
JN, p. 9 "Ethics debate" Our legislators are neither ethical, nor brave nor overly bright.
JN, p.1A Social welfare payments to be cut - its about time. But so also must entitlements...
NYT, p.A28 Things to come : Education of children pitted against pensions for us old and seemingly worthless, do nothing foggies.
NYT, p.A31 Carbon dioxide from factories, car travel...is horrendous... But it causes only 1/3 of global warming. The rest is from and because, as the earth warms from ever-more carbon dioxide..., the carbon dioxide caused warming doubles overall global warming.
MOTIVATION
NYT, p.A43 "Certitude" ? There is no such thing - and the "Law of Unintended Consequences" reigns supreme. Defense Secretary Gates is a wise man (I noted that when he addressed a small group meeting of CIA...personnel [to which I was brought] in NYC in the mid-1990s when he was chief of the CIA). He said that US "foriegn policy...is often an exercise in misread history", but, as I see it, the history is miswritten, ignoring ethnicities and peoples who are members of ALL religions, peoples, ethnicities... "Imposing alien cultures" on people is self-defeating. Reminding them of commonalities, such as adequate common goals and genes, is far more effective. In Washington,DC, the "warping effect of ego" is devastating and, also, self-defeating. For it leads to imposed mandates and timetables "for certitude where such is not possible... (For) trying to change history in dramatic short strokes" is an impossibility.
NYT, p.A42 "Psychiatric drugs for children" ? Having spent nearly 20 years as a Criminal and Family Court defense attorney in the south Bronx... -and having also spent much of that time in close proximity with psychiatrists...in the Bronx Mental Health clinic at the Family...Court- I find that I am unalterably opposed to such nonsensical "meds". Just one reason why is what happens to these medicated kids when they "grow up" : they are zombies, legal addicts who bring in millions of dollars to Pharmaceutical companies...
NYT, p.A33 "Religion" and "Politics" What is the difference ?
NYT, p.A43 "jihad" We need more Arab and Muslim allies to kill the extremist's ideas. There is a war of ideas in Islam and moral courage is necessary to ensure the survival of the 'umma', the community (and the human race). But such will not happen the way things are going in the world today. We need more of what I noted in my comments about U.S. Sect. of Def. Gates (above). The "corrosive mindset" of the extremists will only ensure that they will lose - and that the rest of the human race will lose as well.
NYT, p.A24 India and China comprise 37% of the world's population - and India will soon overtake China as the world's most populous nation (China's one-child-per-family policy has ensured that there are not enough young people to care for their aging parents). After subtracting deaths, there are 75 million new people added to the world's population every year. More boys are born than girls, but, by their late-40s, there are more females than males. Women ought to wise up and get on the bandwagon : the feminist nonsense that men and women are equal has done major harm to the human race. And unless we destroy such nonsense, the human race will itself shortly be destroyed.
Baby Boomers, Here's What's Coming Next
Welcome, Baby Boomers. In another year or two you're going to start retiring and joining us old folks. You better get ready. After all these decades of being the toast of the town, the biggest-ever generation to whom attention must be paid, you're about to become passé.
Or not.
For generations, elders in America have been treated the way you used to treat that kid in your class who was just a little smaller or weaker, a little different. We've been dissed as unattractive, unproductive, unequal, and decidedly uncool.
aarp
AARP
The Jan/Feb 2010 cover of AARP Magazine featured Clint Eastwood, 79.
You may do somewhat better, partly because of your sheer size. There will be almost twice as many people 65 and over strolling the sidewalks and filling up the supermarket aisles a couple of decades from now. You'll also be healthier than we are, with more political and economic clout (while the country goes bankrupt paying for our retirement).
On the other hand, you might actually encounter an increase in age bias – when the rest of the country realizes what it's costing them to provide all of you with pensions and health care (TOUCHE').
I like to think our generation has made some progress toward overcoming ageism (feminist politically correct bullshit), at least with the image-makers (fairy-tales, faggot fairys ignoring realities) : More and more older heroes storm through today's detective novels, while growing numbers of older actors play romantic and/or action roles, people like Harrison Ford (67), Diane Keaton (63), and Clint Eastwood (79). Those gray-haired lovebirds in the Cialis ads bear little resemblance to Ma and Pa Kettle.
Still, studies of the media have found that the more television people watch over the course of their lives, the more negative their feelings about aging.
Scientific research as to the current state of ageism overall is limited, but experts like Robert N. Butler, the pioneering gerontologist, and Erdman Palmore, a Duke University authority on the topic, suspect there has been some small improvement. At the same time, they warn that age discrimination remains an all-pervasive, destructive presence in the American culture(because reality and survival are necessarily paramount for the young as well as the old).

Christie Brinkley, 55.
Most of you Boomers are too young to have experienced age bias, but you will. It keeps you from getting jobs, or keeping one. It leads doctors to withhold or modify treatment according to your age instead of your particular condition. Salespeople look past you. You're ushered to inferior seats in restaurants. Simply because your appearance identifies you as someone who has lived a significant number of years, you're penalized, patronized, and ignored.
Age discrimination takes many forms. I have an older friend who bridles when a bus driver or a merchant addresses her as "young lady." They think they're offering a pleasantry, she says, "but what they're really doing is putting down the way I am." In general, ageism affects women fare far worse than men.
A few months ago, I heard a couple of guys on National Public Radio having a lot of fun with General Motors because its first new, long-gestating model after emerging from bankruptcy turned out to be a Buick. Why in the world would the company lead off with a brand for old people, the NPR pair wondered, and did it come with a built-in dialysis machine?
What a hoot! Obviously, any car identified with old people was fair game for a joke, just like old people themselves. I'd been driving Buicks much of my life, and until then I never realized there was anything funny about them – or about me at the wheel – or about dialysis, for that matter.
Ageism is serious business for every generation, you Boomers included. The culture plants feelings of fear and disgust about getting old in our children's psyches. They grow up to waste untold hours in front of mirrors looking for gray hairs or slack skin and billions of dollars a year on anti-aging cosmetics(wasteful excess) and cosmetic surgery (more wasteful excess, costing more than $ 16 billion a year - the same as for porn with which it might fairly be compared).
Inevitably, ageism influences the way they treat old people; eventually, they direct that bias against themselves (we ALL must be useful and contribute something to life, no matter how old we may be ; in addition, we must keep in shape, not be couch potatoes and lose our excess weight). As older men and women, they're embarrassed by their infirmities, their forgetfulness, their diminished libido. They're ashamed of who they are (whose fault is that ? we each bear our own weight of guilt and shame...even though we may not admit it).
And then ageism exacts a final toll. According to a study by Becca Levy, a Yale University professor, people with a negative view of aging when young live an average of 7.5 fewer years than those with a more positive view.
In historic terms, ageism is a latecomer. Our Puritan founders believed long life was a gift from God. The elderly were to be revered and their advice sought. And nobody put down old people when we were an agricultural society and they owned the land. All that began to change when secular individualism (selfish feminine excess and civil rights excess ; men and women are NOT equal, never have been and never will be) replaced religious belief ("religious " is central to our identities, whether individual, societal, cultural... and civil rights wrongs have destroyed it all) and the industrial revolution replaced the farm.
Some of those early good feelings toward the elderly still linger, of course. We're parents and grandparents, after all. There's love involved. In your everyday dealings, you don't set out to insult or injure us old folks. Yet we end up being patronized, rejected, and blatantly discriminated against.
Will you Boomers be able to lessen age bias and uproot the ugly image of old people embedded in our culture. Erdman Palmore thinks it's possible. "It's a generation that's used to standing up for its rights and standing up for minority groups ("rights" and "minority grouo" nonsense is so excessive that it is massively wrong today)," he says.
Christie Brinkley thinks so, too. "Thank heavens for Baby Boomers," the 55-year-old super model told ET earlier this year. "Ageism is going by the wayside now." I sure hope she's right.

They grow up to waste untold hours in front of mirrors looking for gray hairs or slack skin and billions of dollars a year on anti-aging cosmetics(wasteful excess) and cosmetic surgery (more wasteful excess, costing more than $ 16 billion a year - the same as for porn with which it might fairly be compared).
Inevitably, ageism influences the way they treat old people; eventually, they direct that bias against themselves (we ALL must be useful and contribute something to life, no matter how old we may be ; in addition, we must keep in shape, not be couch potatoes and lose our excess weight). As older men and women, they're embarrassed by their infirmities, their forgetfulness, their diminished libido. They're ashamed of who they are (whose fault is that ? we each bear our own weight of guilt and shame...even though we may not admit it).
And then ageism exacts a final toll. According to a study by Becca Levy, a Yale University professor, people with a negative view of aging when young live an average of 7.5 fewer years than those with a more positive view.
In historic terms, ageism is a latecomer. Our Puritan founders believed long life was a gift from God. The elderly were to be revered and their advice sought. And nobody put down old people when we were an agricultural society and they owned the land. All that began to change when secular individualism (selfish feminine excess and civil rights excess ; men and women are NOT equal, never have been and never will be) replaced religious belief ("religious " is central to our identities, whether individual, societal, cultural... and civil rights wrongs have destroyed it all) and the industrial revolution replaced the farm.
Some of those early good feelings toward the elderly still linger, of course. We're parents and grandparents, after all. There's love involved. In your everyday dealings, you don't set out to insult or injure us old folks. Yet we end up being patronized, rejected, and blatantly discriminated against.
Will you Boomers be able to lessen age bias and uproot the ugly image of old people embedded in our culture. Erdman Palmore thinks it's possible. "It's a generation that's used to standing up for its rights and standing up for minority groups ("rights" and "minority grouo" nonsense is so excessive that it is massively wrong today)," he says.
Christie Brinkley thinks so, too. "Thank heavens for Baby Boomers," the 55-year-old super model told ET earlier this year. "Ageism is going by the wayside now." I sure hope she's right.

New York Times(NYT), p.1 Poorer children on Medicare are more likely to be put on anti-psychotics (thus making them life-long "legal" drug addicts and big money makers for pharmaceutical companies - all paid by the government ; we, the taxpayers) - even when such is not necessary at all. Who -what- are these children when they "grow up" ? Where is "religion" when we need it ? Feminist rot has destroyed it, leaving nothing but emptiness in its place.
12-15-09 :
BIG BUSINESS - so "BIG" as to be lethargic, short-sighted... "Security" means no growth and no growth ("big business") means death - stuck in the past

MOTIVATION If you stand for everything (unlimited "tolerance", excessive civil rights that become wrongs), you stand for nothing.
NYT, p.A41 "How we respond to troubled young people...(Our) broken juvenile justice system...(B)oys (are worst off)...(coming from) chaotic home situations, (having) addictions and mental health problems...". All thanks to feminist nonsense.
NYT, p.A35 A 30-year old child welfare worker (with two girls of her own) was just killed. And my first reaction was "what else is new ?". But she is Jamaican, and that makes all the difference.

NYT, p.A35 Dennis deLeon, a gay-activist who had HIV, just died. He is a nice-looking guy -and he must have been extremely personable... But he was wrong -a committed faggot- wrongly led and guided by the feminist nonsense and garbage that men and women are equal, that which also supports homosexual nonsense. Homosexuality is wrong for it destroys what is male (y) in men(xy). Such doesn't happen in women(xx).
Journal News(JN0, p.23A "Erlich slaying" - "stalker" killer who was her next-door neighbor. The problem here is the same feminist nonsense that says that men and women are equal (they aren't), says that women can live alone... Indeed, there "is something wrong with all that". The woman killed was also a beautiful Jewess - and that is also a problem. There is no group of people that I admire...as much as the Jews - they are often the standard-setters on what is righteous. Their concreteness is pure gold - but it can also lead to excess, feminist nonsense and excess. It is not for me to tell anyone how they should live, least of all my cousins the Jews. But such feminist nonsense is leading the human race to disaster and near-term extinction. For it leads to endless questioning which results in paralysis and puts off the hard work that we need to do today to survive.
One should always work for justice (balance), yet compassion should always weigh in most heavily. But, regardless, justice, compassion...mean nothing if we're all dead.

NYT, p.41 Doing away with oil, coal, gas...will lead to great advances for the USA and the world. Especially as "the trend in climate (and human health) is towards planetary disaster" if we dont stop using fossil fuels. The unintended -disastrous- consequences of "sulfer dust in the stratosphere..." could be horrendous.
NYT, p.41 "Christian realism" posits evils in the outside world as well as within the individual human being. And that we must not succumb to our inner evils as a result of fighting external evils. The moral frameworks we use to fight external evil are fairly simple, but the evils we all hold inside are infinitely complex - and our external frameworks are far too simple to deal with them. And, if we dont constantly adapt them, we are imminanently corruptible. Love is infinitely unitive - and is the reality (broadly understood) in the world of the 'eternal' present. But we live in the limited and temporal human world where change ("corruption") is the rule. The human mind is limited to the imagined/"remembered" past, the hoped-for future and the temporal present - and has little to do with the 'eternal' present.
When I was a criminal and defense defense attorney (nearly 20 years in the Bronx, Westchester...), I had a lot of drug cases and I learned a lot about the effects of drugs on the mind and brain. So I know far more than many psychiatrists.... And I also worked with many psychiatrists... in the Bronx... Family Court. In my very educated-and-experienced opinion, all psychiatrists are -and have to be- somewhat "mentally ill" (its the only way to stay slightly sane) so a lot of time they have no idea what they are doing or any really competent idea of what they are talking about. In addition, I firmly believe that most (all ?) psychiatrists...prescribimg drugs, "anti-psychotics... - "meds" - are being paid by pharmaceutical companies to push their products.
Moreover, I am firmly convinced that we are an over-medicated society in America (and the West as a whole) and that such is helping to push America... over the edge - to total destruction.
Antidepressants change personality, study suggests
By Anne Harding, Health.com
Expert: "It looks like a lot of what gives people relief is that they're feeling whatever the opposite of neuroticism is."
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
* People taking Paxil, an SSRI, had personality shift: less neuroticism, more extraversion
* The two changes were independent of the drug's effect on depressive symptoms
* The more drastic the personality shift, the less likely depressed patients were to relapse
(Health.com) -- People who take antidepressants such as Paxil often say they feel less stressed and more outgoing, lively, and confident. Now a new study suggests it's not just because they're less depressed.
In fact, such drugs may alter two key personality traits linked to depression -- neuroticism and extraversion -- independently of their effect on depression symptoms.
"Medication can definitely change people's personalities, and change them quite substantially (including quite negatively - and inhumanly)," says the lead author of the study, Tony Z. Tang, Ph.D., a professor of psychology at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. The findings show that "those changes are very important," he says.
In the study, people who took Paxil (paroxetine), a selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), had a drop in neuroticism, which is a tendency toward emotional instability and negative mood. They also had an increase in extraversion, which is a tendency toward outgoingness, compared to similarly depressed people taking placebo.
And the more drastic the personality shift, the less likely depressed patients were to relapse, according to the study, published this week in the Archives of General Psychiatry.

* Depression
Paxil is rarely prescribed now, because of concerns about side effects and withdrawal, says Tang, but other SSRIs (such as Prozac and Zoloft) are likely to have the same effect on personality.
Expert Q & A: Your mental health questions answered
The notion that antidepressant drugs -- and SSRIs in particular -- can cause personality changes is not new. But many researchers have attributed these changes to a patient's improved mood, and have been skeptical that SSRIs had independent effects on personality.
Health.com: "Antidepressants helped my fibromyalgia"
The current research is a "confirmation of what I observed a number of years ago," says psychiatrist Peter D. Kramer, M.D., the author of the landmark 1993 book "Listening to Prozac," which described how patients treated with antidepressants often became more at ease socially and less sensitive to rejection )it sells drugs for pharmacy companies while destroying the patient's humanity).
"It looks like a lot of what gives people relief is that they're feeling whatever the opposite of neuroticism is," says Kramer, a clinical professor of psychology and human behavior at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. "Getting better(???) very solidly seems to predict a longer period before the next episode. That argues against the notion that these medications are just band-aids [that] get people through."
Health.com: Depression in bipolar disorder
Psychiatrists have come to expect personality changes in patients being treated with SSRIs, says Kramer. Thirty years ago, he says, a person who was "no longer in acute pain, remained pessimistic and socially shy and socially anxious and feeling inferior" was considered cured of depression. Today, he says, "Clinical people now want to see these personality changes."
In Listening to Prozac, Kramer expressed concern that SSRIs might usher in an era of "cosmetic psychopharmacology," with non-depressed people popping pills to make themselves more attractive, energetic, and confident. But this hasn't come to pass, he says. "I've never had anyone come into my office or ever had an extended phone conversation with someone who was on these medications for trivial reasons."
Health.com: How the right drugs can treat bipolar disorder
Although the new study sheds some light on the relationship between SSRIs and personality, there is much that remains unknown about these drugs.
"The theory of how these medications work is actually still a mystery," says Tang.
In the study, the researchers randomly assigned 240 people with moderate to severe depression to Paxil, placebo, or cognitive therapy (a form of talk therapy). In order to separate out the effect of Paxil and depressive symptoms on personality, the researchers matched participants in the Paxil and placebo groups according to how much their symptoms improved.

After eight weeks, the group of patients who took Paxil reported a reduction in neuroticism nearly seven times greater than that reported by the patients taking placebo whose depression symptoms had improved a comparable amount. The increase in extraversion reported by the Paxil group was 3.5 times greater than that among the matched placebo patients. (The changes in personality were measured using a standard questionnaire.)
The study was funded by the National Institute of Mental Health. GlaxoSmithKline, the maker of Paxil(!!!!!), provided the medication and placebo pills.

jewsyonkersislam # 716v US & Law : Sex addiction and/or women lost ?
jyi # 716v US & Law : Sex addiction and/or women lost ?
Below is a relevant discussion about an article. But between them are some newsbits that tend to substantiate what I note here and in my blog, jewsyonkersislamiii-tc.blogspot.com .
We hear a lot about sex addiction today -by both men and women. And we hear of women "getting ahead" by lying on their backs, that it is the only way to do so (see story below). But both problems -and so much more- are related to the feminist nonsense that men and women are "equal", that which is translated as women must BE men to live a "normal" life. All my life I have been absolutely revolted by such garbage. Men(xy) are oppositional, limited and limiting -which isn't saying much, although such is also the essence of leadership. Women are cyclical, confused and confusing, stable, the past and the future, narrative... -but they are not meant to lead. Unfortunately, today, too many women are leading -or trying to do so. Yet they are doing very poorly, so poorly that the human race faces near-term extinction unless men stop being ever-lazier, irresponsible, effeminate and emasculated AND use their male(y in xy) sides to properly lead.
Below is a discussion of an article by the lovely S.E. Cupp (I wonder what her cup size is ?) about Tiger Woods and his dalliances with women other than his wife (Daily News, p.31, 12-3-09) . She discusses immorality...so I add that immorality is both individual sin and / as well as (collectively and individually) a lack of adequate common goals.
Indeed, I like what she writes - her mind is open and flexible (confused and confusing...), just as a real and good woman's is (unlike Tigers' "floozies"). She deplores psychiatrists... and their bent to explain away everything as an "illness" -thereby tending to justify it (including, as I have seen it done, incest, child sexual abuse...). She also bemoans "our culture - and our collective psyche" and the "immorality of our actions...(and) behaviors", saying that we need "soul searching" (and)...confession...(not) therapy and rehabilitation". And she is right, although she did not note that we can have no morale, personal or societal, without reasonable standards of morality. Is there a difference between "things we do in our private lives (and)...who we really are" ? In truth, we mistake it when we think there isn't. One thing to keep in mind is that an "individual's strengths and weaknesses" are multivariable. If you can blame an individuals troubles on his "addictive" behavior, you can also blame his successes on a personal "disorder". But the operative word here is "his" - male, not female.
In addition, ALL great leaders have been, by definition, "mentally ill".
12-6-09 :
New York Times(NYT) Mag., p,8 A "Good Marraige" is what ? Monogamy in a polygamous relational arrangement ? For men and women are different and women need "connection", whereas men do not - at least not in the same way. For men do not experience different stages of life as women do (men are boys, life-long). However, a "good marraige" is and always will be and remain undefined and undefinable - because it is just like life and living. "(E)xpectations" are what marriages are all about. But expectations change daily, just like we do as we grow, age and learn. There are always tensions between "intimacy" and "autonomy" - but that is also a part of maturation. ALL marrital therapies are useless and usually lead to "therapist-induced marital suicide". Monagamy is best when the context is right. But today's context makes polygamy more effective. We all have expectations that lead to a sense of entitlement - but "entitlements" are killing us today. The real goal of marraige should be mental health and balance - contentment.
What can we do to begin to remedy all our societal -and world- problems ?

ECONOMICS
NYT, p.A19 "Create jobs ? Reduce deficit ?" Such is impossible with our current feminist-nonsense-drenched society. We have no adequate common goals.
NYT, p.B3 "Bond traders put pressure on debt-laden governments...to cut budget deficits, intimidating everybody" from the US to Europe to Japan...
NYS, p.A1 Obama chastizes banks and "fat-cat bankers" for not lending more money to help create more jobs... As I see it, any jobs created by Obama and the Democrats would be non-productive social welfare and service-type jobs, jobs that will only make everything worse. So banks are right to beware of Obama and the Democrats (not that the Republicans are much better, brain-dead as they are).
MOTIVATION
NYT, p.8, WK, 12-13-09 Pollution from gas, oil, coal..., plastics... causes "endocrine disruptors" (in plastic...)...to induce early puberty, behavioral problems like ADD and autism, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, prostrate and breast cancer...as well as genetic damage that may not appear for decades - or in offspring.
NYT, p.C1 "Exploring" vs. "killing" the family. The movie producer here discussed appears to be a faggot and to belive that it is responsible for his problems. He says that "the family is a problem, but you need it. Its an evil you have to support".People who enjoy his movies tend to be "very old or very gay (faggots)...(or) very young (like young girls)". He has always had problems, for he is not interested in male characters and action, but in feelings, preferring female characters. As a child, he liked to play with dolls.

London's 'Belle de Jour' Is a Scientist Who Had Sex for Tuition Money
*
The jig is up. Belle de Jour, the former prostitute behind the popular column "Diary of a London Call Girl" and TV series "Secret Diary of a Call Girl" is really British research scientist Dr. Brooke Magnanti, 34. Dr. Magnanti gave the oldest reason for turning to the oldest profession -- to pay for her PhD.
She came forward now allegedly out of fear that an ex-boyfriend (her ex-boyfriend ? her pimp ? I wouldn't touch her with a 10-foot pole ; think of the diseases, her emotional super-vagueness...) might out her. Not even her literary agent knew who she really was.
"It was time. I've felt so much guardedness and paranoia about remaining anonymous recently," Dr. Magnanti told The Sunday Times. "... I don't want this massive secret over me anymore."
But let's step back a moment -- Dr. Magnanti's story isn't anything we haven't heard before. Melissa Beech (not her real name), a college senior from a swanky suburb outside Philadelphia, has written about how a sugar daddy is paying for her schooling in The Daily Beast. Until last fall, a student alleging to be a call girl detailed her experiences at the blog Confessions of a College Callgirl. In the summer, a Knoxville, Tenn., media outlet interviewed a 19-year-old using escorting to pay for massage therapy school. (Stifle that laugh.)
The number of students having sex for tuition money has exploded in Europe, and experts believe it will continue to rise due to the rising costs of education. British researchers found this unusual trend in sex work has grown by 50 percent over the past seven years. In early 2008, France's education minister vowed to increase financial support after a freshman's diary and a book of interviews with undergrads exposed their experiences with prostitution.
It makes sense. There are few jobs you can work while going to school full-time that can truly help you pay for an education. (Read the claim by "Freakonomics" authors Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner that prostitution can get you the most buck for your bang.)
So since we've heard stories like Dr. Magnanti's before, maybe there's still an outcry because society still can't accept a woman using both her sexuality and her smarts. Why can't a smart cookie give up the cookie as a means to an end (because women are confused and confusing - especially when men are stupid as we are today)? Or maybe it's the fact that Dr. Magnanti went really far in her education that irks us. Commenters are hissing that she's somehow less (she most certainly is), her degree somehow not as credible(could well be - did she fuck her professors to pass ?), because she paid for it with carnal currency.
The most shocking part of Dr. Magnanti's story may be that she didn't get exposed before now. With her revelation, maybe stereotypes of exactly what kind of woman engages in the sex industry will start to fall away(so all women are whores ?).
And maybe the next time a highly educated woman admits she did the deed to get a degree, we won't judge her so harshly(au contraire, my dear).
jyi # 716v US & Law : Sex addiction and/or women lost ?
Below is a relevant discussion about an article. But between them are some newsbits that tend to substantiate what I note here and in my blog, jewsyonkersislamiii-tc.blogspot.com .
We hear a lot about sex addiction today -by both men and women. And we hear of women "getting ahead" by lying on their backs, that it is the only way to do so (see story below). But both problems -and so much more- are related to the feminist nonsense that men and women are "equal", that which is translated as women must BE men to live a "normal" life. All my life I have been absolutely revolted by such garbage. Men(xy) are oppositional, limited and limiting -which isn't saying much, although such is also the essence of leadership. Women are cyclical, confused and confusing, stable, the past and the future, narrative... -but they are not meant to lead. Unfortunately, today, too many women are leading -or trying to do so. Yet they are doing very poorly, so poorly that the human race faces near-term extinction unless men stop being ever-lazier, irresponsible, effeminate and emasculated AND use their male(y in xy) sides to properly lead.
Below is a discussion of an article by the lovely S.E. Cupp (I wonder what her cup size is ?) about Tiger Woods and his dalliances with women other than his wife (Daily News, p.31, 12-3-09) . She discusses immorality...so I add that immorality is both individual sin and / as well as (collectively and individually) a lack of adequate common goals.
Indeed, I like what she writes - her mind is open and flexible (confused and confusing...), just as a real and good woman's is (unlike Tigers' "floozies"). She deplores psychiatrists... and their bent to explain away everything as an "illness" -thereby tending to justify it (including, as I have seen it done, incest, child sexual abuse...). She also bemoans "our culture - and our collective psyche" and the "immorality of our actions...(and) behaviors", saying that we need "soul searching" (and)...confession...(not) therapy and rehabilitation". And she is right, although she did not note that we can have no morale, personal or societal, without reasonable standards of morality. Is there a difference between "things we do in our private lives (and)...who we really are" ? In truth, we mistake it when we think there isn't. One thing to keep in mind is that an "individual's strengths and weaknesses" are multivariable. If you can blame an individuals troubles on his "addictive" behavior, you can also blame his successes on a personal "disorder". But the operative word here is "his" - male, not female.
In addition, ALL great leaders have been, by definition, "mentally ill".

New York Times(NYT) Mag., p,8 A "Good Marraige" is what ? Monogamy in a polygamous relational arrangement ? For men and women are different and women need "connection", whereas men do not - at least not in the same way. For men do not experience different stages of life as women do (men are boys, life-long). However, a "good marraige" is and always will be and remain undefined and undefinable - because it is just like life and living. "(E)xpectations" are what marriages are all about. But expectations change daily, just like we do as we grow, age and learn. There are always tensions between "intimacy" and "autonomy" - but that is also a part of maturation. ALL marrital therapies are useless and usually lead to "therapist-induced marital suicide". Monagamy is best when the context is right. But today's context makes polygamy more effective. We all have expectations that lead to a sense of entitlement - but "entitlements" are killing us today. The real goal of marraige should be mental health and balance - contentment.
What can we do to begin to remedy all our societal -and world- problems ?

ECONOMICS
NYT, p.A19 "Create jobs ? Reduce deficit ?" Such is impossible with our current feminist-nonsense-drenched society. We have no adequate common goals.
NYT, p.B3 "Bond traders put pressure on debt-laden governments...to cut budget deficits, intimidating everybody" from the US to Europe to Japan...
NYS, p.A1 Obama chastizes banks and "fat-cat bankers" for not lending more money to help create more jobs... As I see it, any jobs created by Obama and the Democrats would be non-productive social welfare and service-type jobs, jobs that will only make everything worse. So banks are right to beware of Obama and the Democrats (not that the Republicans are much better, brain-dead as they are).
MOTIVATION
NYT, p.8, WK, 12-13-09 Pollution from gas, oil, coal..., plastics... causes "endocrine disruptors" (in plastic...)...to induce early puberty, behavioral problems like ADD and autism, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, prostrate and breast cancer...as well as genetic damage that may not appear for decades - or in offspring.
NYT, p.C1 "Exploring" vs. "killing" the family. The movie producer here discussed appears to be a faggot and to belive that it is responsible for his problems. He says that "the family is a problem, but you need it. Its an evil you have to support".People who enjoy his movies tend to be "very old or very gay (faggots)...(or) very young (like young girls)". He has always had problems, for he is not interested in male characters and action, but in feelings, preferring female characters. As a child, he liked to play with dolls.

London's 'Belle de Jour' Is a Scientist Who Had Sex for Tuition Money
*
The jig is up. Belle de Jour, the former prostitute behind the popular column "Diary of a London Call Girl" and TV series "Secret Diary of a Call Girl" is really British research scientist Dr. Brooke Magnanti, 34. Dr. Magnanti gave the oldest reason for turning to the oldest profession -- to pay for her PhD.
She came forward now allegedly out of fear that an ex-boyfriend (her ex-boyfriend ? her pimp ? I wouldn't touch her with a 10-foot pole ; think of the diseases, her emotional super-vagueness...) might out her. Not even her literary agent knew who she really was.
"It was time. I've felt so much guardedness and paranoia about remaining anonymous recently," Dr. Magnanti told The Sunday Times. "... I don't want this massive secret over me anymore."
But let's step back a moment -- Dr. Magnanti's story isn't anything we haven't heard before. Melissa Beech (not her real name), a college senior from a swanky suburb outside Philadelphia, has written about how a sugar daddy is paying for her schooling in The Daily Beast. Until last fall, a student alleging to be a call girl detailed her experiences at the blog Confessions of a College Callgirl. In the summer, a Knoxville, Tenn., media outlet interviewed a 19-year-old using escorting to pay for massage therapy school. (Stifle that laugh.)
The number of students having sex for tuition money has exploded in Europe, and experts believe it will continue to rise due to the rising costs of education. British researchers found this unusual trend in sex work has grown by 50 percent over the past seven years. In early 2008, France's education minister vowed to increase financial support after a freshman's diary and a book of interviews with undergrads exposed their experiences with prostitution.
It makes sense. There are few jobs you can work while going to school full-time that can truly help you pay for an education. (Read the claim by "Freakonomics" authors Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner that prostitution can get you the most buck for your bang.)
So since we've heard stories like Dr. Magnanti's before, maybe there's still an outcry because society still can't accept a woman using both her sexuality and her smarts. Why can't a smart cookie give up the cookie as a means to an end (because women are confused and confusing - especially when men are stupid as we are today)? Or maybe it's the fact that Dr. Magnanti went really far in her education that irks us. Commenters are hissing that she's somehow less (she most certainly is), her degree somehow not as credible(could well be - did she fuck her professors to pass ?), because she paid for it with carnal currency.
The most shocking part of Dr. Magnanti's story may be that she didn't get exposed before now. With her revelation, maybe stereotypes of exactly what kind of woman engages in the sex industry will start to fall away(so all women are whores ?).
And maybe the next time a highly educated woman admits she did the deed to get a degree, we won't judge her so harshly(au contraire, my dear).

jewsyonkersislam # 716u US & Law : homosexuality doesn't make doesn't make sense
jewsyonkersislam # 716u US & Law : homosexuality doesn't make doesn't make sense
jyi # 716u US & Law : homosexuality... doesn' t make sense
Below is a relevant story. But as I see it, homosexuality...is a dead end, meant to be wasted and crushed. But first I note a few newsbits that tend to substantiate what I note here and in my blog, jewsyonkersislamiii-tc.blogspot.com.
12-11-09 :
ECONOMICS
New York Times(NYT), p.A43 Bernanke's "Mission" : create jobs. We need 300,000 per month for the next 5 years to bring the USA back to its former prosperity, yet we are losing more and more jobs every month and such is projected to continue so for years. And yet, even if we create new jobs, what kind of jobs will they be ? Non-productive social-welfare type jobs ? Such will only lead to ever-more young men becoming ever-more-frustrated -even having such "jobs". And these young men will seek male fulfilment and guidance - and find it in fundamentralist intolerance, of all kinds. All because of the feminist nonsense that is drowning America and the West. Men and women are not -and never have been- "equal". Boys and men(xy) are oppositional while girls and women(xx) are cyclical, confused and confusing, narrational and narrative. Moreover, Christians killed other Christians during the 30 years war with as much zeal as they killed Muslims and Jews before and after.
MOTIVATION
Journal News(JN), p.18A 5 young American Muslims tried to join the jihad against America in Afghanistan - and to die as martyrs.
NYT, p.A30 These 5 Muslims were "called intensely devout", "good guys" yet somewhat "intolerant" with the not-"good" (the ever-lazier, irresponsible, effeminate and emasculated so-called "men" we have today - or, even worse, the faggots.
NYT, p.A43 "Hannakuh Story" "(G)ood guys do horrible things, bad guys do good things and everuybody is flummoxed by insolulable conflicts that remain with us today...(an indication of) how politics is, how history is... how life is" - how human life is, in general, over all times...
NYT, p.A41 "Scholar of Jewish History". A "people's collective memory" is often quite different from what is actually known and factually verifiable. What resides in a people's collective memory / its collective consciousness are stories with inspirational power and "immediacy". Indeed, for all peoples (re: sociobiology / evolutionary psychology), there is "an almost genetic transmission of un(or non)-conscious memories". As I see it, these memories are reminisces of our time before birth and that they are closest to us during our childhood -nurturant- days, 'eternal' present reminisces. Even people who have hard childhoods remember those times with longing.
In the USA -and worldwide-today, we have assholes who work to worsen our already terrible social tendencies (which tend to suppress our best childhood reminices) and wosen everything, assholes such as attorney Jonathan Lovett in Hawthorne, N.Y.
12-12-09 :
SEX
NYT, p.A16 Sex -really good sex- is as much about intense personal pleasure, joy, elation, satisfaction and satiation as it is about a relationship between a MAN and a WOMAN.
Journal News(JN), p.7A "NO" voters on gay marrraige bill are "targeted" by gays and lesbians. That being the case, I think it is time that "straight" people started targeting the "targeters", the gay boys, faggots... Vigilantism against civil wrongs is not wrong.
JN, p.13A "God"s word forbids homosexual marraige ? Forget about "God". Reality forbids homosexuality in general - that it happens can never make it right. Therefor, homosexuality is not a "civil right" - it is a civil wrong, an immorality that destroys both personal and societal morale and social cohesion.
JN, p.14A Man sexually assaults a girlfriend in his home ? Really ? Or should I say "for real" ? Or is she just mad at him for something else he did -or didn't- do ?
NYT Bk. Rev., 12-13-09, p.21 "Founding Mother". In truth, as I see it, women should be rulers and leaders -of their men and not out in the world. And, throughout history, this has always been mostly the case - even today. But with the ever-worse feminist nonsense over, especially, the past two centuries or so (as pushed by the collective feminine), men have been getting ever-lazier, irresponsible, effeminate and emasculated. And women have been doing ever worse, personally and individually and societally as well.
CHILDREN
NYT, p.1 Islamic extremism among young men in the USA - the result of America and the West's feminist nonsense impacting on a boy-man's(xy) oppositionality(x vs. y).
Terrorists share alienation and a longing for self-importance - as do all young men. It is male(xy) oppositionality (x vs. y) seeking to assert itself over its feminine(x) half, acting in necessary revulsion. In America and the West, faggots and feminists have managed to mix everything up.
Denying personal responsibility (as we do in America and the West with our victim mentality of blaming everyone but yourself and our entitlement-drenched feminist-biased culture) produces nothing but clueless sheep.
NYT, p.1 Poorer children on Medicare are more likely to get anti-psychotic medications when such are not really necessary. What happens when these medicated children "grow up" ? Who -what- are they...life-long markets for pharmaceutical companies ? Where is "religion" when you need it ? Feminist rot has destroyed it and left nothing but emptiness in its place.
In truth, all leaders -especially great leaders- are, by definition, "mentally ill". And all progress is made by unreasonable ("mentally ill") MEN (not women).
NYT Mag., 12-13-09, p.30 Legal Professors -ultra-liberal bigots- chastise the US Supreme Court, using more debilitating "minority group" bullshit language which only makes everything worse.
NYT,p.C1 "Precious" , a movie about "an overweight, inarticulate black girl" who is pregnant with a child by her father - after already having one by her father ; and being made to lick her mother's private parts. When I was a Family Court defense attorney in the south Bronx(nearly 20 years), I'd have cases worse than this every day. And, as I see it, such disgust and rot is taking hold in the "better" classes of people because of the aforementioned feminist and gay rot which is corrupting our society.
12-13-09 :
INTERNATIONAL
NYT, WK, p.8 UN experts are being threatened by Somali businessmen -who profit from transporting food for the UN through the violence- who ALSO support terrorists so they continue to be needed by the UN.
NYT, WK, p.11 "The Game is not so Great" Our "puppets" in Afghanistan and Iraq expect the US purse to stay open for decades - even though the US is nearly bankrupt. Secretary of Defense Gates (Celtic ancestors, most likely) praises "humility". Back in the mid-1990s, when he was Chief of the CIA, I was taken to a very small meeting in NYC that he addressed on the condition of the world then.
NYT, WK, p.4 "To beat Al Quaeda, turn East", to Indonesia ? As I see it, we really should look at the ethnicities...comprising al Qaeda first (much Celtic, Mongol, Turkish...genes - including, amoung others, the Sea Dayak in Indonesia).
MOTIVATION
NYT, Sports, p.1 Tiger Woods' sponsors are backing away because of the bad publicity from his need for women other than his wife. One of the downfalls of "fame" is infamy.
NYT, WK, p.1 "15 minutes" of "fame" is gone. In truth, the "hero" is self-created by his own accomplishments (and Tiger has accomplished much) whereas the "celebrity" is created by the media. The fact that some women are drawn to famous men is a consequence of being a woman. And women who "take down" such men somehow have nothing better to do. For the man, such is "a hidden cost of fame". One must consider both the context and the meaning of all this as opposed to the realities of survial - as well as "our idea of success...shifting public appetites...(and) new categories (definitions / prejudices)". Many "heroes" -or just media-created "celebrities"- become "trapped in transactional relationships with their fans...commodities". It is necessary, but becomes ever-harder the more you achieve, to maintain one's "neutrality". Yet it is an intricate "balancing act", requiring "almost fanatical self-control". Only a woman can help a man retain his balance - but there are the inevitable costs and unintended consequences.
JN, p.19A "Some (female and ultra-liberal male/faggot) clergy support abortion care in the health reform bill" But women, while providing stability to the human race, are also confused and confusing, the past and the future, cyclical, narrational... ; and are usually stuck in a "present of the past" - at least until they are shown the long-term/future results upon us if we dont radically change our current ways. For instance, think of China's one-child-per-family plan, enacted 50 years ago. The result ? No one to take care of elderly parents today. The unintended consequeances of all the liberal feminist nonsense that has been foisted upon America, the West and the world may well cause the human race to become extinct in the next few years unless we IMMEDIATELY change our ways.
Daily News(DN), p.29 "2nd teen jailed in Columbine-like attack planned for Monday, 12/14, in central New Jersey. Why ? An unintended consequence of excess feminist nonsense, as above noted.
NYT, WK, p.2 "Belief systems" (languages) are crucial, but successful ones -like democracy in the West- eventually become self-centered and assume, wrongly, that their system is best for all time and lose all touch with reality. The truth is that "Western power is in retreat...everywhere", although the Western belief system is a viable and necessary "comfort blanket in (our ever more) unfamiliar world".
NYT, WE, p.12 "From Moscow, a Joyful Noise" "(C)horal traditions" worldwide are central ways human beings cope with our ever more "unfamiliar world". For such bring the 'eternal present' to our limited human consciousness and renew us - today.
The welfare state (today's matriarchal entitlement-besotted nations in America, the West...) is maternal and protective - but it is also degenerative, dissolute, stifles initiative...
Individual "civil" rights must be balanced with and by community rights, including the necessity to survive.
ALL therapists promote the culture of victimization (feminist nonsense) and feminist excess. And such discourages necessary and needed critical thinking.
Medicare and Medicaid are ruinously expensive entitlements.
We in America are drugging our Alpha boys while Muslims encourage extremist terror, toughness, aggressiveness, ruthlessness...
Democratic special interests -trial lawyers, teachers, unions, AARP...) must be slapped back - and brain-dead Republicans (and Democrats) must be throughly re-educated in the realities of the day.
We Irish are fools and pompous asses - especially when we are also faggots, like pretty-boy Tommy, stick-it-in-my rear, Duanne (and lesbians, like NYC Council Pres. Christine Quinn ; but her ass is not involved as she is a belly 'n thigh licker, not a hump-thumper)
The vote against Marriage Equality makes me very angry (said pretty-boy Tommy Duane). Promises made were not honored.
The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) community (a pack of collossal knuckleheads), and all fair minded ("fairness" means nothing when to be "fair" means the extinction of the human race) New Yorkers have been betrayed (buulshit). I am enraged, deeply disappointed and profoundly saddened by
the vote today.

jewsyonkersislam # 716t US & Law : Singing in White Plains to a broken political system
jyi # 716t US & Law : Singing in White Plains to a broken political system
At the bottom is a story very much in point. But just below is my speech before the Westchester County Board of Legislators in White Plains tonight, 12-10-09. In the delivery of this, I was more than ably assisted by the very beautiful and multi-talented Thais Hockaday. And just after that are a few newsbits that tend to support what I note here and in my blog, jewsyonkersislamiii-tc.blogspot.com .
ADDRESS BY THOMAS J. P. COURTNEY -ASSISTED BY THAIS HOCKADAY- TO THE WESTCHESTER COUNTY BOARD OF LEGISLATORS. :
" My cousin Mike Kaplowitz is right about necessary cuts and consolidations. But they must be far more extensive and not just in Westchester, but in New York State and nationwide - especially feminist and social welfare boolcheet. Just because legislatures, politics, brothels, law and theatre are the same is no excuse not to - see my blog, jewsyonkersislam.
While you digest that, we give you this - which I also dedicate to Karen ( and Thais and I sang) :
' Go tell it on the mountain, over the hill and everywhere, Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born // While shepherds kept their watching, o'er silent flocks at night, Behold throughout the heavens, There shone a holy light // Go tell it on the mountain, over the hill and everywhere, Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is Lord // The shepherds feared and trembled, When lo ! above the earth, rang out the angel chorus, that hailed our savior's birth // Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere, Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is Lord ' (and then) ' Silent Night, holy night, all is calm, all is bright, Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child, Holy Infant so tender and mild, sleep in Heavenly peace, sleep in heavenly peace (at which there was thunderous applause for Thais and her beautiful voice - and we stepped down from the lectern) '.

ECONOMY
Journal news(JN), p.20A NYS relies on Wall Street for 20% of its tax receipts so it does not bite the hand that feeds it. But non-productive financing -such as what is so wide-spread today- is counter-productive and must be changed.
New York Times(NYT), p.A1 Great Britain is imposing a 50% levy on year-end bonuses - nor is it wrong.
NYT, p.B2 Levies on bonuses (as above) are also known as "windfall taxes". And "the banks and bankers invited this" after billions in government money spent on bailouts.
NYT, p.B1 Obama and the Republicans fight about job proposals. As I see it, its all bullshit ("boolcheet", as above), for we have -and are suffering from the immorality of- no adequate common goals. Besides which -and as a result thereof- all these jobs will be non-productive, stuck in a dysfunctional past.
SEX
NYT, p.A35 New Jersey and same-sex marraige ; I am totally opposed. Civil rights have become civil wrongs : male homosexuality should once more be condemned. "Same-sex couples and their children" are NOT the same as "normal" people - and its not the children's fault.
NYT, P.A3(?) "Political Sex" A man with " compulsively wandering eyes (like mine - one of my many disabilities)...is a hound dog". Thank God that my wife of nearly 40 years has always taken care of me. And such also is a "commentary... on the viability of our social standards" - in truth, thanks to feminist nonsense, we have none any longer and men can do as they please. "(W)omen seem to be getting tougher" -more like men- and such is exposing us to constant "ridicule, dishonor, disgrace and shame". The collective feminine at work.
Daily News(DN), p.3, 12-9-09 Two beautiful NYC teachers were found naked and engaging in lesbian sex in an empty classroom in Brooklyn. As I've often noted, men today are ever-lazier, irresponsible, effeminate and emasculated. So where else can women go to get their jollies ?
MOTIVATION
NYT, p.A18 Afghanistan war will be "long and expensive" - and we can not afford it.
NYT, p.A32 "Advocates say city is running out beds for the homeless". But can we afford such -in its excess- today ?
NYT, p.A1 "For rural elderly, times are distinctly harder". All over.
Letter from my high school (Fordham prep) to me seeking money -of which I have none. Yet it is true that it is "more blessed to give than to receive". The letter also notes a "service" requirement for all the students (it is an all male school), for "bringing light, life and hopes", while it is "mushy" and "feminine", helps a boy(xy) to learn how to distinguish between his male (y) and female(x) side (females are all female - xx). Revulsion against and reaction to the female helps a boy and man learn how to deal with his natural oppositionality (as opposed to a female's cyclicity). In addition, "loss of self" (personal ego) is also an 'eternal present' entry.
JN, p.18A Nearly half of Americans (mostly females, I'd think) say they have had a religious / mystical experience - an 'eternal present' entry type experience.
Trend Alert®: Breaking Point 2010 By Gerald Celente
Celente_GeraldKingston, NY -- 8 December 2009 -- The first decade of the 21st century is going out the same way it came in … with a bust and a bang.
* The dot-com bubble burst in 2000, and the Bailout Bubble will bust in 2010.
* 9/11 terror ushered America into the decade, and terror will strike again before the decade ends.
* The decade long wars waged by US and NAT0 against Afghanistan and Iraq are leading the world to the first Great War of the 21st Century.
* The 20th century belonged to America, in 2010 Empire America will be breaking apart. The signs are there for all to see(so true, yet who/what will replace merica ?).
* World leaders and most economists see a very different future unfolding. They insist the financial crisis is over and recovery is on the way (boolcheet!!!).
On the military front, America’s new Commander in Chief, Congress and the generals promised their war strategy will bring victory abroad and keep the homeland terror free(boolcheet!!!).
Fed a steady diet of junk news du jour by the Cartoon News Networks, the general public remains largely oblivious or at best, grossly misinformed. As 2009 ends, the misadventures of Tiger Woods and the White House party crashers top the media menu.
Increased terror, escalating wars, economic calamity … these are just a few of the 2010 Top Trends featured and analyzed at length in our Winter Trends Journal ® that you will receive by early January.
In the meantime, to keep you alert, focused, and above all, prepared, within two weeks we will send you an overview of our 2010 Trend forecasts. It is important to have plans and strategies in place for the holidays, a time when so many are caught up in the spirit and paying little attention to the headlines.
Our high alert is not alarmism. Last year, just two days after Christmas, with most people in a holiday state of mind, Israel launched a major war against the Palestinians. There were a number of factors that could have led either to an instant economic meltdown or an escalation of the war beyond the Palestinian borders.
The worst was averted. Had it happened, only those who’d taken proactive measures at the first signs of major hostilities would have gone through the crisis unscathed. The trend lesson? War, terror and calamity are not set to time clocks. Anything can happen, anywhere, at anytime. Prepare for the unexpected. It is the close-combat state of mind.
In addition to the ominous forecasts, we also foresee a variety of social, health, environmental, entertainment, cultural, business and consumer trends that will be both profitable and transformational.

jewsyonkersislam # 716s US & Law : All politicians are local and laughable
jyi # 716s US & Law : All politicians are local and laughable
Below is an article about Yonkers and its politicians, But first are some newsbits that tend to substantiate what I say here and in my blog, jewsyonkersislamiii-tc.blogspot.com .
12-9-09 :
ECONOMICS
Journal News(JN), p.14A "Obama...(and) new stimulus" - which wont help in the least. What kind of jobs ? More non-productive social-welfare-type nonsense, that which the foolish liberal Democrats are notorious for ?
New York Times(NYT), p.B13 "Weakness of recovery unsettles investors", worldwide. Economists -and men, limited and limiting- think that the markets are "rational" when they are not. Indeed, the markets are more like women, confused and confusing, cyclical, narrative. As I see it, it is the collective feminine (women[xx] and the [x] in men[xy]) that regulates markets and truely shapes collective human behavior. When limited and limiting (the essence of leadership) men are not leading properly -as they are not today- the collective feminine (being cyclical...women are not meant to lead, as men) moves into the breach, forcing women to lead -disastrously, as today- to try and force men to properly lead. And not be -as they are today- ever lazier, irresponsible, effeminate and emasculated.
Jn, p.13A 6 Democrats on the Westchester County Board of Legislators -led by my cousin Mike Kaplowitz- propose cuts and mergers. But they are too little, too late, nevertheless.
CLIMATE
NYT, p.A1 Without "profound shifts...dislocations...sweeping changes (soon)...(we are looking at) the extinction of the human race (very shortly)".
And "ALL countries" must be part of this endeavor.
JN, p.16A 2000-2009 may well be Earth's warmest decade.
MOTIVATION
NYT, p.A30 Former FBI (and CIA) chief Judge William Sessions is heading an investigation of the FBI's handling of Major Hassan. Back when he was head of the FBI -in the mid 1990s- I was brought to a small-group meeting in NYC that he addressed on the problems facing US security.
NYT, p.A22 Prison populations are up. But many inmates have it better inside (food, shelter, clothing, medical... care...) than outside - and dont want to leave.
NYT, p.A18 the ACLU was taken down a bit. As I see it, it should be smashed for its unwise support of feminism and homosexuality.
The Hezitorial: Moving Yonkers from Laggard to Leader By Hezi Aris
(dont make me laugh too hard, Hezi)
EHezi Yonkers has remained the butt of jokes dating back as far ago as the middle of the last century(1950 ? That was the time when my cousin, Denis McNulty -known then by the name Denis Day- was a top Hollywood actor and had his own TV show). Yonkers envisioned a future for itself that has escaped her grasp. City Hall’s propensity for turning criticism and inquiry into personal affront remains the 14-years old recipe that has robbed this administration from accumulating any accolades over which they may be proud.
Political reform, that espousing transparency and discourse, is too frequently trashed or overlooked by whim or construct. A recent critical and eloquent soliloquy by Yonkers City Councilman John Murtagh was denied viewers it being seen and heard because City Hall shut it down. City Hall simply stopped televising the meeting. When Councilman Murtagh told of the occurrence perpetrated by City Hall, City Hall’s conduct was exposed. Such conduct has been permitted to continue without notice being made. So much for transparency.
The City Hall website continues to stall uploading documents in a timely manner. So much so, that documents pertinent to public comment periods are too often not made available before those meetings are called.
City Hall’s conduct is a vindicative game meant to silence opposition among the legislative body. Yonkers City Hall is too often effective in demeaning and denigrating those who would challenge the “strong mayor form of government” only to become the focus for personal attack. Yonkers City Councilwoman Joan Gronowski has earned the attention of Yonkers City Hall for future ridicule. She has been chosen to be whipped into submission by an administration that is adept at being in denial their elected responsibility, that is to serve the public good. They are not authorized by any mandate to chastise any elected official.
Mayor Amicone’s minions have become adept at whipping the boys(but Loan is a pretty woman, confused and confusing/cyclical yet indispensible to advance) into submission. They have greater difficulty with the women. Women know full well how weak the men are(so true ; Hezi has been reading my blog). Councilwoman Gronowski will not be party to their scheme; she will not relent in serving the public good. She maintains a fiscally prudent demeanor in being watchful over how taxpayer’s money is spent.
Focusing their wrath upon Councilwoman Gronowski in their attempt to marginalize her, cannot be acceptable behavior because it is anathema to America’s democratic principals and because it does not conform to America’s concepts of fair play (women are special and should be so treated). The first to comply with City Hall scheme is none other than newly re-elected Yonkers City Councilman Chuck Lesnick. On the On the Level with Hezi Aris radio show heard on WVOX-1460 AM, Mr Lesnick chastised Councilmember Gronowski for being “strident”. The dictionary defines strident to be “grating” or “discordant”. When this reporter challenged Mr Lesnick if the meaning of the term “strident” was reference to Ms Gronowski’s hardline ethical (ah ! ethical-cum-righteous) standards, Mr Lesnick told of a time Ms Gronowki voted against raising the tax burden on the citizenry by $3 million. When he was advised, “Its not your money,” Mr Lesnick was incapable of grasping the concept of fiscal prudence (re: "tea-parties all around the USA, including Westchester). Mr Lesnick is unchastened by the results of the November 2009 election.
The cat fights that prevail about Yonkers political landscape have obscured the dire financial circumstances for which Mayor Amicone has ill-equipped the city’s ability to survive without outrageous increases in the tax burden, further exacerbated by New York State’s fiscal concerns. Mayor Amicone has no plan (no plan, no adequate common goal - just foolish nonsense). Even if he had a plan, he does not possess the intestinal fortitude (he lost his balls when he was a youngster) to stand up to opposing special interest groups about the city, and is further ineffective in “selling” the rationale for additional sacrifice to Yonkersites who have been promised the world yet suffered dismissive concern by City Hall(Hey, Hezi, you write dam fine stuff).
Yonkers has engineered itself to be bogged down in political scandal, a bloated government, a frail economy, a lousy business environment, and far too much violence and poverty among its residents.
Yonkersites wax nostalgic for the days when they can bask in the successes ascribed to other communities within Westchester County.
Yonkers is being held back by its cartels. The cartels that have held Yonkers back are the political groups whose non-aggression pacts disenfranchise the potential voter their right to have credible options come before them. The Yonkers City Council President race is one such scam.
Union contracts(!!!!!) that were undersigned by spineless administrations who have permitted excess to levels no longer financially acceptable to the taxpayer yet continue unabated.
City Hall’s ability to print and televise the “news” has successfully defiled the credibility of the media. City Hall has systematically pushed media outside Yonkers borders yet all the while blaming “them” for departing Yonkers due to their lack of interest. Yonkers no longer has a press corps. Those that exist are “told” the news at the knees of one of Mayor Amicone’s operatives. That is not news; it is spin(and, like a wheel, its the same old thing - and it tends to fall off the axle because it is not "true"). It has hurt Yonkers by denying it the “truth” (all "truth" may be narrative and all "facts" may be infinitely malleable, but some narratives are just plain false - like here).
Professional associations(unions...) that limit competition are operating throughout Yonkers. The Yonkers Chamber of Commerce has done little to promote Yonkers other than to stand with cup in hand in search of a hand-out from City Hall (so true).
Economic development projects are distilled and promoted among friends, promoted among specific law firms, constructed through specific firms, and audited by specific accounting firms. This conduct flies against all reasonableness of professional conduct (more likely, unethical conduct) in what is soon to be designated the third largest city in New York State. This is the corruption that has atrophied or stymied Yonkers at every turn she makes.
Yonkers is full of cartels with privileges and veto power that inhibit the city’s ability to make the changes the city needs to move forward.
This need not be the case. Yonkers can gain the will to break the cartels’ chokehold.
When will Yonkersites turn the page on those who have held them back? Yonkersites know the score. Yonkersites can no longer sit idly by as their future continues to be squandered by those who have failed us as they have failed themselves.
Councilman Murtagh is bringing a sensible approach to the out of control Yonkers Board of Education in their unwillingness to produce financial books asked for audit at the Yonkers City Council request of Inspector General Zisman. Councilwoman Gronowski is standing firm on ethical grounds lock step with public concerns. President Lesnick has yet to find his way. When will he get it? He is unlikely to lead Yonkers forward. Mayor Amicone has likewise proven himself incapable.
Now what? ( Councilman Murtagh for Mayor)

It has hurt Yonkers by denying it the “truth” (all "truth" may be narrative and all "facts" may be infinitely malleable, but some narratives are just plain false - like here).
Professional associations(unions...) that limit competition are operating throughout Yonkers. The Yonkers Chamber of Commerce has done little to promote Yonkers other than to stand with cup in hand in search of a hand-out from City Hall (so true).
Economic development projects are distilled and promoted among friends, promoted among specific law firms, constructed through specific firms, and audited by specific accounting firms. This conduct flies against all reasonableness of professional conduct (more likely, unethical conduct) in what is soon to be designated the third largest city in New York State. This is the corruption that has atrophied or stymied Yonkers at every turn she makes.
Yonkers is full of cartels with privileges and veto power that inhibit the city’s ability to make the changes the city needs to move forward.
This need not be the case. Yonkers can gain the will to break the cartels’ chokehold.
When will Yonkersites turn the page on those who have held them back? Yonkersites know the score. Yonkersites can no longer sit idly by as their future continues to be squandered by those who have failed us as they have failed themselves.
Councilman Murtagh is bringing a sensible approach to the out of control Yonkers Board of Education in their unwillingness to produce financial books asked for audit at the Yonkers City Council request of Inspector General Zisman. Councilwoman Gronowski is standing firm on ethical grounds lock step with public concerns. President Lesnick has yet to find his way. When will he get it? He is unlikely to lead Yonkers forward. Mayor Amicone has likewise proven himself incapable.
Now what? ( Councilman Murtagh for Mayor)
