Neoconservative Party?

Why is it that I keep seeing the Conservative party referred to as neo-con (neoconservative)? When I studied political science, the one thing that stuck was ...a neoconservative is a "liberal mugged by reality," one who became more conservative after seeing the results of liberal policies. ... three distinctive aspects of neoconservatism from previous forms of conservatism: a forward-looking approach drawn from their liberal heritage, rather than the reactionary and dour approach of previous conservatives; a meliorative outlook, proposing alternate reforms rather than simply attacking social liberal reforms; taking philosophical or ideological ideas very seriously... Kristol, Irving. "American conservatism 1945-1995". Public Interest, Fall 1995.
Crediting the Conservatives as being neoconservative is just plain wrong. If we concede the fact that they are moving further right, the next stop would be fascism. There is nothing "new" about these conservatives so stop putting "neo" on their political idealism, please.

New Office

This is the view from my new office. There are ducks in that pond, and geese too.

This is my new office. The dog is for security, she is actually a German Shepard in disguise.

The only problem is the people who keep walking through my office.

The Prayer For the Dead

What was life has crumbled
What was form now falls away
Mortal chains unbind...
And the sole is lifted free
May you find your way to the ancestors
May you find your path to the Gods
May your bravery and courage be remembered in song and story
May your parents be proud...
And may your children carry your birthright
Sleep and wander no more.

Longing For One More Day

"When we lose someone we love it seems that time stands still. What moves through us is a silence... a quiet sadness... A longing for one more day... one more word... one more touch... We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. We will see you again some day, in a heavenly place where there is no parting. A place where there are no words that mean good-bye."

These are not my words, at least I am not the one who composed them in this manor. They are however my feelings on the subject. She was so right for you and nothing I can say will ease the pain... time will, as you know... but time will never lessen the loss of the love that was Twilah.

Now this is my office

Inspirational sites

Inspirational site that I found today:

The Joy T-Shirt which I was informed of while listening to my favorite pod cast, Vinyl Cafe.

Get Juice

Want to listen to internet audio programs (podcasts), music and shows but can't when they are scheduled? Juice is for you.

Juice lets users select and download shows and music and play whenever they want on their iPods, portable digital media players, or computers automatically.

Juice is implemented in Python. It supports most RSS protocols and scans for enclosures. If the enclosure is in the form of a BitTorrent file, it will download the torrent file in the background. If the media player on the system supports it, the downloaded content is automatically added to playlists. The content is kept on the local hard drive in nested folders, titled with the show's name.


This is what I use. I only listen to the CBC Vinyl Cafe.

Just click the button below to download.



Cross-Platform
The system works on Windows & Mac, for specifications check the download page.
