Farmers Market Wayville "IndyWatch Feed Allworld"

Adelaide families now have the opportunity buy fresh food directly from producers from all over SA at the Adelaide Showground Farmers Market. The 20,000 strong crowd that turned up for the farmers market which formed the centrepiece of the 'Go Organic Festival' in September in 2005 encouraged the Royal Agricultural and Horticultural Society (RAHS) to back the foundation of a permanent farmers market by a not-for-profit community organisation. The market opened on October 1st 2006 with a massive crowd of 10,000 shoppers and runs each Sunday (apart from the weeks of the Royal Show) from 9am-1pm.

In the tradition of farmers markets, it is a food market at which both food producers and consumers can get a fair price for food produced in SA and support regional and sustainable land use. The market guarantees that you buy direct from the producer and is known for its strict adherence to the ethics of farmers markets which now number in their thousands worldwide as families seek to avoid overstored food from major retailers who pass on meagre prices to farmers. In Australia, the farmers market movement is represented by the Australian Farmers Market Association and SA's peak body, the SA Farmers Market Association, will soon be launched.

The Adelaide Showground location is superb, with a major bike trail, the Glenelg tram line, a major rail line, numerous bus routes all converging to make it one of the most accessible sites in Adelaide. Parking is also easy and cheap.

120 producers offer their extraordinarily diverse products (everything from oysters to almonds and bread to boysenberries!). It is accessed from the car parks at the Leader Street (southern) end of the Showgrounds.  

Becoming a member brings with it 10% discount on all purchases as well as a right to vote in the management of the market. Details and memberships are available at www.adelaidefarmersmarket.com.au.

The Food Forest is a foundation stallholder at the market and presents a wide range of foods, always including its signature specialty - organically certified pistachio nuts. We are there on alternate weeks (we run short courses on the other weekends).

Die Grnen haben gerade eine gar mchtige Nebelkerze ... "IndyWatch Feed Allworld"

Die Grnen haben gerade eine gar mchtige Nebelkerze gezndet mit diesem Bullshit ber Namen nach der Hochzeit. Endlich ein Thema, wo jeder Vollidiot eine Meinung zu hat, es gibt keine inhaltlichen Argumente, und alle Schafen laufen direkt los und erzhlen sich gegenseitig, wie sie dazu stehen.

Die anderen von euch rufen jetzt bitte mal schn einen Burying-Alarm aus und achten sorgfltig darauf, was fr einen Klrschlamm sie im Parlament verklappen, whrend die Deppen abgelenkt sind.

Hmm, kalt heute. Oh, das liegt an der zugefrorenen ... "IndyWatch Feed Allworld"

Hmm, kalt heute. Oh, das liegt an der zugefrorenen Hlle. Das Verwaltungsgericht Hamburg hat einem Mann vorlufigen Rechtsschutz gewhrt, der einen neuen Personalausweis brauchte aber keine Fingerabdrcke abgeben wollte. Weil zu der Frage ein Verfahren vor dem EuGH anhngig ist, hat das Gericht ihm zugestimmt.

Old and busted: Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO). ... "IndyWatch Feed Allworld"

Old and busted: Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO). Der Klrschlamm der letzten Finanzkrise.

New hotness: Additional Tier 1 bank bonds. Der Klrschlamm der aktuellen Finanzkrise.

Der Guardian erklrt das mal.

AT1 bonds sometimes known as contingent convertible bonds, or CoCos are a type of debt issued by a bank that can be converted into equity if its capital levels fall below requirements. This helps to reduce debts, while handing the bank a capitalisation boost.
Mit anderen Worten: Das sind Schulden, die man nicht zurckzahlen muss, wenn es einem finanziell nicht so gut geht als Schuldner. Im Gegenzug kriegt man hhere Zinsen, solange der Schuldner noch solvent ist, und man kriegt am Ende Anteile des berschuldeten Schuldners, wenn er zahlungsunfhig ist.

Wofr die dann gut sein sollen ist mir gerade nicht klar.

Wie blich bei solchen Abzockinstrumenten haben sie darauf geachtet, dass den Glubigern nicht klar war, auf was sie sich einlieen.

Typically when a company goes bust, bondholders rank before shareholders in the creditor pecking order for any recoveries that can be paid. Although expecting to rank behind conventional bondholders in order of priority, owners of the AT1 bonds still thought they would place before equity investors.
Tja. Lektion fr die Zukunft: Sowas vor der Insolvenz des Schuldner klren!

Kennt ihr den schon? Belastende, bereinstimmende Zeugenaussagen der Polizei vor Gericht mit Filmaufnahmen der Polizei widerlegt? Mit Filmaufnahmen, deren Existenz die besagten Polizisten erstmal geleugnet hatten?

Was mich daran am meisten mitnimmt, ist dass hier der Fuballverein eine Rechtshilfeabteilung fr zu Unrecht verfolgte Fans zu betreiben scheint. What the fuck? Soweit ist das schon entgleist?!?

Money Quote:

Dann musste er sich das Video ansehen und siehe da, er ruderte recht schnell zurck und gab zu, sich geirrt zu haben.

So schnell, dass ich ihn gar nicht mehr nach seinem Eintracht-Frankfurt-Schlsselanhnger befragen konnte, der aus seiner Tasche lugte

If you only watch 36 seconds of Boris Johnsons evidence to the Commons Partygate inquiry 36 seconds too much, you might think then make it this.

Its the moment when people thought the real Boris Johnson slipped out for a moment, and while we hesitate to pinpoint exactly what the real Johnson might look like, its a very interesting watch.

Some people had no doubt what they were watching.

And it took us back to this moment, an interview with Skys Beth Rigby from back in the day, when something similar happened. ...

The look on the face of Boris Johnsons lawyer as he gave evidence is quite the watch "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

All eyes were on Boris Johnson on Wednesday as he gave his long-awaited evidence to the Commons Partygate inquiry.

Well, not all eyes. Some of them were trained on the former PMs lawyer, (Lord) David Pannick QC, one of the countrys most in-demand lawyers (read all about him here).

Anyway, we mention him because the look on his face was quite the watch, as captured by the eagled-eyed wife of @thehistoryguy himself, Dan Snow.

Heres how the Guardians sketch writer John Crace described Pannick back in 2019.

Pannick exudes a sense of calm and has the uncanny ability to make you think you understand legal double-speak even when you dont.

A Pannick attack is a thing of zen-like beauty. In his hands, a legal submission is more a cosy bedside story than adversarial confrontation.

Maybe he just remembered hed left the oven on.

Do you ever wake up all bundled up in bed on a chilly morning and think to yourself, Ahh, I'm just like a burrito? Well, now you can take that thought one step further with an actual blanket that looks like a giant tortilla. This Burrito Tortilla Blanket will make you feel like your favorite snack while watching TV, laying in bed, or whenever you please.

Visually, the blanket perfectly resembles the texture of a tortilla, from the yellowish-white flour to the varying brown shades of burned spots. However, don't let the look of this creative blanket fool youit's super soft to the touch and will keep you cozy while adding a fun touch to your nights in. To make it even more realistic, the blanket is printed on both sides.

The blanket comes in a wide range of sizes, from 47 to 80 inches, in case you want to share your place in a burrito with someone else. If wrapping yourself in a tortilla is not your thing, there are also cookie, waffle, and pizza blankets available. Although those options are great for paying tribute to amazing dishes, nothing beats the humor behind literally being a human burrito.

It's softer than I thought it would be and oddly enough, the circular shape makes it super versatile for wrapping over shoulders or using as a lap blanketextra length on rounded edges means your toes don't stick out, writes one reviewer. Another satisfied customer writes, It is a great investment for anyone who wants to add...

11 Things You Need to Know About Sleep and Your Health "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

From Ronald Hoffman, MD

Earlier this month, I covered some of the strong links between sleep and healthparticularly the effects of getting too little sleep. This week, Im providing some more sleep facts and solutions in support of Sleep Awareness Month.

1) Prescription meds dont cut it for long-term management of sleep problems. An estimated nine million adults in the U.S. alone say they take prescription meds to try and get a good nights sleep. But a new study showed that there was no difference in sleep quality or duration between women who took prescription drugs for 1-2 years versus those who didnt.

Sleep medications can induce sleep, but fail to replicate natural sleep architecture which is necessary to confer brain and body benefits.

Moreover, a 2022 study that followed older adults who used sleep medications for about six years found they had a 48% greater risk of dementia, compared to those who didnt use them.

As for over-the-counter sleep aids, they, too, were found to accelerate cognitive decline with chronic use. Many of these remedies employ anticholinergic antihistamines like Benadryl (diphenhydramine) to make you drowsy; they may gradually deplete acetylcholine which is an essential brain neurotransmitter.

2) Ever wonder why youre so likely to nod off while driving? You may be sleep deprived. But even when I think Ive gotten adequate sleep, sometimes I need to fight off drowsiness while driving by chewing gum, pinching my cheeks, or doing alternate nostril breathing.

Now theres an explanation: The natural vibrations in cars appear to make people sleepier. New parents invoke this principle when they strap babies into the car seat and drive them repeatedly around the neighborhood to lull them into slumber.

Research using simulators shows that vibrations of a certain frequency induce drowsiness in experimental subjects within...

What is a Multisignature (MultiSig) Wallet? "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

A multisig wallet is a special type of wallet for securely storing your Bitcoin. 3-5 signatures are typically required to access the stored Bitcoin.

What is a MultiSig wallet?

A multisig wallet is a wallet that provides users with extra security because it requires multiple unique signatures (hence multi-signature) to authorize and execute a transaction. A traditional or single-sig Bitcoin wallet contains a Bitcoin address, each with one associated private key that grants the keyholder complete control over the funds.

With bitcoin multisignature addresses, you can have a Bitcoin address with three or more associated private keys, such that you need any two of them to spend the funds. A wallets private key grants access to a users funds. It proves ownership of your bitcoin and is necessary to execute transactions in combination with a public key. If a private key is lost, all funds are lost, and there is no way to recover them. Spreading access to a wallet across multiple keys is a safer measure.

Multisig is not native to Bitcoin. The concept has been used in the banking sector for years and previous to that it had been used for thousands of years to protect the security of crypts holding the precious relics of saints. The superior of a monastery would give monks only partial keys for gaining access to the precious relics. Thus, no single monk could gain access to and possibly steal the relics.

Single-key vs Multisig

Most Bitcoin wallets use a single signature setup. This type of setup only requires one signature to sign a transaction. Single-key addresses are easier to manage as access to funds is faster. Still, they also represent a single point of failure increasing risks for your security since hackers and malicious actors could more easily access them.

Single-key wallets are good options for small and faster transactions like face-to-face payments but are not recommended for individuals and businesses who need to store considerable amounts of bitcoin. Like with cash, if you lose access to your single-key wallet, your funds are gone and theres nothing you can do to recover them.

A multisig wallet, on the other hand, is configured in a way that requires a combination of keys from different sources to be operational for example, 2-of-3, meaning that transactions can only be executed if at least 2 keys out of 3 are used.

Different variations exist, with a combination of signatures required to access funds and execute transactions. Some solutions demand that all the private keys are used to create the signature and authorize a transaction for maximum security.

Multisig solutions are not new to bitco...

Technocracy and Agenda 21, Part 1 "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Authored by PFC member and volunteer Elaine Buxton: Since 2020, the globalists have accelerated the implementation of the UNs Agenda 21, later updated to Agenda 2030.  Patrick M. Wood reviews the history and who is responsible for it in his new book, The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism.  Its his third book about the radical transformation of the worlds economic structure and bioweapons used to alter the biology and functioning of humans within the technocracy ideology.  It is vital that we understand how we are being attacked, not so covertly anymore, in order to resist and overcome the very real threats to our survival.  This article summaries the content in his book, Chapters 1 to 4. This is all important, but heavy information to process and understand. Therefore, I am publishing it in two parts for easier absorption and digestion.  Part 1, lays the historical groundwork for Technocracy.  Part 2 describes what is happening now down to pursue the Agenda 21 goals. Technocracy is designed as an economic and political replacement for free market capitalism and democracy.  It proposes the elimination of all private property by transferring it into a common trust held and controlled by unelected, elite technocrats bankers, scientists, engineers and administrative minions.  The statement You will own nothing but be happy is an accurate description of technocracys intent. Synonyms and codes for technocracy are New World Order, The Great Reset, sustainable development, stakeholder capitalism, green economy and smart growth. Agenda 21 is the technocracy plan for the 21st century. Well known technocrats include Dr Anthony Fauci of NIH, Elon Musk of Tesla Motors, Space X and Starlink, Peter Thiel of PayPal, Sergey Brin and Larry Page of Google,  Ray Kurzweil, a transhumanist and computer scientist, and Klaus Schwab of WEF. Technocracy incorporates transhumanism, or the enhancement of biological beings with technology, including genetic engineering, AI and the convergence of four science disciplines ...

Under A Bitcoin Standard, Legacy Institutions Will Adapt And Improve "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

When bitcoin becomes the global reserve currency, central banks wont go extinct, but they will have to evolve.

This is an opinion editorial by Jonathan Garner, a Bitcoin, finance and economics blogger at The Capital.

Legacy reserve currencies. Source.

If bitcoin were to really become a global reserve currency, that would mean that the U.S. dollars days would be done. What would our daily lives look like under a bitcoin standard? And what would that mean for bitcoin?

It would seemingly mean that things would be priced in bitcoin at the store. In other words, bitcoin would function as a unit of account. So, instead of things being priced in U.S. dollars all over the world, things would be priced in bitcoin. I admit that its still early and that this is probably a long time away but still, it is possible even though bitcoin is still pretty volatile, at least compared to the current global reserve currency of the U.S. dollar.

Contrary to what some people seem to think, my contention is that bitcoin already is a currency. Bitcoin is a medium of exchange, which is why bitcoin is, in fact, called a cryptocurrency instead of a crypto-store-of-value or crypto-gold (although, bitcoin certainly is those things as well). This isn't just science fiction either. Bitcoin is already being used as a currency in certain places, like El Salvador. When bitcoin is the global reserve currency, everyone will be using bitcoin as a currency this way. In short, Bitcoin is money. Its a medium of exchange, store of value and unit of account.

The Legacy System On A Bitcoin Standard

The bitcoin standard would mean that central banks would and should hold bitcoin on their balance sheets. Perhaps this would mean that central banks would not be needed anymore, but like any government agency or quasi-government agency, that doesnt necessarily mean they will go away. Central banks will hold bitcoin because it will give their countries an advantage over other countries where the central banks dont. The more free that a country is, the stronger it is against other countries. Bitcoin is freedom. Bitcoin is freedom from financial oppression.

Thinking Thursday: Mini-Biography 3 "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Prompt #134 Mini-Biography 3 is an excerpt from Task Cards Book #3, available as a digital printable activity guide at my bookstore. Read more about my playful math books here.

Do you want your children to develop the ability to reason creatively and figure out things on their own?

Help kids practice slowing down and taking the time to fully comprehend a math topic or problem-solving situation with these classic tools of learning: See. Wonder. Create.

See: Look carefully at the details of the numbers, shapes, or patterns you see. What are their attributes? How do they relate to each other? Also notice the details of your own mathematical thinking. How do you respond to a tough problem? Which responses are most helpful? Where did you get confused, or what makes you feel discouraged?

Wonder: Ask the journalists questions: who, what, where, when, why, and how? Who might need to know about this topic? Where might we see it in the real world? When would things happen this way? What other way might they happen? Why? What if we changed the situation? How might we change it? What would happen then? How might we figure it out?

Is Severe Autism Measured Adequately? "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

What the heckIs Severe Autism Measured Adequately? New Commentary Believes theres a Better Way to Measure How the Condition Impacts Life - see the article below from the Safeminds site.

Maybe ask AND BELIEVE the parents who have been shouting for 2 decades, instead of telling us to ACCEPT! ACCEPT! ACCEPT! And stop gaslighting our children's PLIGHT away into a supper dee duper Swiss Army knife set of self-selected differences.  We acknowledge and support families and individuals any and everywhere on the spectrum. But let there be no doubt, the most affected, and certainly those who regressed following vaccine injury, have been marginalized and all but vaporized by the "approved" narrative. The puzzle piece has been cast aside for a rainbow infinity symbol - a visual slap in the face. Remember that in 2012, the DSM V removed Asperger's as a diagnosis. Many of our kids were diagnosed PDD-NOS as tots, Pervasive Developmental Disorder - Not Other Specified. Wasn't the code 299.0 - and rarely did insurance cover anything?  The changes to terminology have confused everyone. We're happy to see strides to better measure - but honestly, if experts listened to the experienced voices of parents of kids across the spectrum, we might be in a much better place.  Thanks to Safeminds for featuring this info.

New Commentary Believes theres a Better Way to Measure How the Condition Impacts Life

A new commentary featured in the journal, Autism Research, calls for a more effective way of measuring severe autism that details specifically how an individuals autism severity level impacts their life. Autism severity is currently defined and measured based exclusively on the levels of two core symptom domains: social-communication and restrictive or repetitive patterns of behaviors and interests. However, the commentarys authors point out that people with autism are often diagnosed with other medical, developmental, and psychological co-occurring conditions. These additional challenges may include intellectual disability, limited expressive and/or receptive language, and anxiety disorders. All of which can have a significant impact on day-to-day life. The authors also indicate that core symptoms and co-occurring conditions interact across development, influencing the others trajector...

Is This Woman Wrong For Wanting To Contact The Daughter She Gave Up? "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

There are all kinds of adoptions nowadays you can agree to never contact their new family, you can have an open adoption, or you can work out your own agreements and mix the two based on time, comfort level, and age.

That said, I would think that changing those agreements down the line could get tricky a fact this woman is finding out several years into the future.

She got pregnant as the result of a one night stand and was set to have an abortion. He was against it, so they came to an agreement that she would carry the pregnancy and then give the child to its father.

She would not have any parental rights or responsibilities.

Long story short: in my (40f) twenties I had a one night stand with this guy Nathan (now 41m) and got pregnant.

I first thought of having an abortion, but Nathan had come from a conservative religious background (not Christian) and wanted the baby so we made a deal: I would give birth to the child and sign away my parental rights (my name is not even in her birth certificate, its a possibility in my country) and he would pay all the medical expenses plus some extra for my troubles.

Thats what we did and didnt keep contact after his daughter was born.

Things have gone fine, but recently she saw a picture of the girl she gave birth to and reached out to her ex, wondering if she might be able to get to know her child, answer any questions she has, etc.

A few weeks ago, a friend of mine who has the same religion as Nathan sent me a post from her temples youth group (they were asking for donations for the homeless) and one of the girls from the picture looked a lot like me. I searched for her profile and found out that she had Nathans surname and had the right age to be the baby I gave away.

Shes 17 now...

Ai Weiwei Recreates Monets Water Lilies Triptych Using 650,000 Lego Bricks "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Nearly a century after Claude Monet painted them, the Nymphas, or Water Lilies, still impress as a vision of a seemingly minor subject realized at a grand scale. The paintings installed in a dedicated room at the Muse de lOrangerie in Paris make an especially strong impact on their viewers an impact surely not lost on Ai Weiwei, who has lately re-created another set of Water Lilies (a triptych whose original resides at the Museum of Modern Art) entirely out of Lego bricks. Titled Water Lilies #1, this 50-foot-long plastic homage will go on display at Londons Design Museum as part of Ai Weiwei: Making Sense, which opens on April 7th and runs until July 30th.

Ai used 650,000 Lego bricks in 22 colors in his version of the famous Impressionist triptych, writes ARTnews Karen K. Ho. Apart from simply replicating, brick by pixel-like brick, the brushstrokes with which Monet replicated the lily pond at his Giverny home, Weiwei also included a dark area on the right-hand side. The Design Museum said it represents the underground dugout in Xinjiang province where Ai and his father, Ai Qing, lived in forced exile in the 1960s. On one level, this is an unexpected addition; on another, its just the touch one might expect from the most famous dissident Chinese artist alive.

Order and Chaos Converge in Yool Kims Emotionally Charged Works "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

A blue mixed-media work with numerous faces rendered in lines, circles, and other geometric forms

All images Yool Kim, shared with permission

Yool Kim seizes the disarray of our inner emotional landscapes by trapping energetically impassioned characters in her color-blocked works. Contorted bodies, floating heads, and abstractly shaped cut-outs reveal a range of moods and feelings all compacted into the rectangular canvas. Centered on linework and simple shapes the Seoul-based artist scratches into the composition, the mixed-media works feature stylized figures who emphasize play, sadness, and malaise.

Where pattern signals an underlying sense of order, the characters facial expressions veer in the opposite direction. I draw myself. I want to express everything I feel in life, such as my thoughts that are not organized, my wishes, my relationships with people, the artist shares. I draw a series of thoughts that are mixed in my head that have not matured, (that have) not grown unlike my body, as if dividing categories.

Kim will have pieces on view in a solo show opening on March 24 at All About Art in Singapore and a group exhibition opening on March 25 at Brooklyns Court Tree Collection. Find an archive of her works on Instagram.

Hear the Oldest Song in the World: A Sumerian Hymn Written 3,400 Years Ago "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

In the early 1950s, archaeologists unearthed several clay tablets from the 14th century BCE. Found, WFMU tells us, in the ancient Syrian city of Ugarit, these tablets contained cuneiform signs in the hurrian language, which turned out to be the oldest known piece of music ever discovered, a 3,400 year-old cult hymn. Anne Draffkorn Kilmer, professor of Assyriology at the University of California, produced the interpretation below in 1972. (She describes how she arrived at the musical notationin some technical detailin this interview.) Since her initial publications in the 60s on the ancient Sumerian tablets and the musical theory found within, other scholars of the ancient world have published their own versions.

The piece, writes Richard Fink in a 1988 Archeologia Musicalis article, confirms a theory that the 7-note diatonic scale as well as harmony existed 3,400 years ago. This, Fink tells us, flies in the face of most musicologists views that ancient harmony was virtually non-existent (or even impossible) and the scale only about as old as the Ancient Greeks.

Heres How I Know Youll Survive This "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Author of Be Ready for Anything and Bloom Where Youre Planted online course

Theres a survival secret that not a lot of people talk about, and its how I know that more than likely, youre going to survive whatever is coming at us next.

Its easy to get swept away by the doom and gloom and the pending disaster of the moment. At times like this, it feels like we have annihilation bearing down on us from every angle: the economy is almost kaput, nuclear powers like Russia and China arent our biggest fans, and civil war could erupt at any moment. And that doesnt even take into account random natural disasters like wildfires and hurricanes, or horrific accidents like the train derailment in Ohio.

Its enough to make you wonder how on earth youre going to manage to live through whats coming.

Suddenly theres an avalanche of overwhelm, and its the kinds of questions that keep preppers up at night. Do you have enough supplies? Can you trust your group? Are you really ready? What if you forgot something vital? How can you get more money to get prepped? What ifwhat ifwhat if

Let me stop you right there.

Spoiler: Youre probably going to survive it.

I have a lot of evidence supporting that. Heres what you need to consider whenever you feel like youre not going to make it.

Your ancestors survived.

First of all, you need to remember that you yourself come from a long line of survivors. Its quite literally in your blood.

If your ancestors had not survived for dozens of generations, you wouldnt be here. Its not enough to simply have reproduced. Someone had to get the next generation to adulthood so that they, too, could procreate.

So while some probably died during horrible events in the past, plenty did not. Your ancestors have survived it all. Theyve survived big things like plagues, wars, the Great Depression, the threat of annihilation from various enemies, and natural disasters during times we couldnt predict them and warn people using the news.

Benjamin Fulford Report: First ever world revolution about to liberate humanity March 20, 2023 "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

What is happening now has never happened before in human history. We are witnessing the first-ever world revolution. The riots in France, the US military disobedience of fake President Joe Biden, the unification of the Muslim people, the collapse of Credit Suisse and many more events around the world are all interconnected signs of this. It is all part of the overthrow of a hidden ruling class that has presided over the planet for thousands if not tens of thousands of years. The final result will be both mind-boggling and liberating for humanity and earth life in general. Before we go look at all the events unfolding though, let us try to grasp the big picture. My former professor Saadullah Ghausy -who was Afghanistans Ambassador to Japan before the Russians invaded his country- said the best way to understand international relations is to think of countries as individual people. So, with that in mind, here is the big picture: An African, a Chinese, a European, an Indian and a Khazarian find themselves stranded on a deserted island. The Khazarian says to the African You go and collect food, firewood and other resources. To the Chinese he says You make tools and build shelter and furniture for us. To the Indian he says You cook and clean and take care of the various chores. To the European he says You beat up the African, the Chinese and the Indian if they disobey.

NEW YORK The introduction on a new track Medieval Candle from the seminal doom metal band Draconian Flesh turned out to be the entire track, annoyed sources confirmed.

At first there was just kinda these wandering droning guitars and the sound of wind blowing, and I was ok with it for the first minute or two but it just kept going. When it got around the six-minute mark I figured ok this is when it gets heavy but instead there was just the slight hint of some Mexican guitar and more wind sounds, Draconian Flesh fan Jill Murphy explained after skipping the track for the seventh time. I was convinced that at any second the drums would kick in and some nasty riff was going to melt my face but it just never happened.

Draconian Flesh guitarist Roman Rowe attempted to explain the addition of this incredibly boring track to their new album and Pain For The Grateful.

This being our sophomore album, we really wanted our sound to mature, so we decided to write a song that just goes on and on but never actually goes anywhere, Rowe said while attempting to record guitar feedback for a new song. We really wanted to create a soundscape that our fans will like but also make critics lose their damn minds. We want to reimagine what it means to be a metal band and take our fans on a journey through our music. We feel exploring the stock sound library at the recording studios is the best way to do just that.

Music Theory Professor Nettie Garrett, Ph.D. helped to explain why so many bands fall into this trap.

I blame hubris. The band gets a small taste of success and suddenly thinks they are Brian Eno, Garrett explained after suffering through Medieval Candle. Instead of trying to draft some hooky riffs or interesting fills, they end up putting a microphone in a rock tumbler or throwing an electric bass into a bathtub. They dont understand that their fans just want a damn song. I highly recommend that if at any point a band says the words reimagined or journey that they take a deep breath and rethink what they are doing.

As of press time, Draconian Flesh announced their next EP to be a single 13-minute track titled The Quantum Of Pain Opus, much to their fans dismay.

We Sit Down With Crust Punk Legend the Stinky Cheese Man "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Few people were as synonymous or odorous in the punk world as the Stinky Cheese Man. He and the Fairly Stupid Crew were staples of the New York hardcore scene of the late 80s and early 90s, their exploits famously adapted as a book 30 years ago. We sat down with him to talk about the height of trash culture and sleeping on bowling balls.

The Hard Times: Its an honor to sit down and speak to someone as integral to the scene as much as the music itself. How does a sentient cheese man end up in Manhattan?
The Stinky Cheese Man: I was obsessed with the youth crew movement. I grew up in the middle of nowhere in Wisconsin, it was straight up Reagan country. It also didnt help that everyone from cows to children were repulsed by my stench. So I just bolted one day and ran, ran, ran. No one tried to stop me, so I kept going until I hit the East Coast.

You havent reached out to your family since then?
No, Ive never been back home, my parents were straight up tweakers. They stuck me in an oven the day I was born. Would you go back to that? I never looked back. It wasnt until I met Loosey Goosey and Chicken Licken at an Earth Crisis show in 91 that I felt part of a family again.

Well it was a hell of a family, you were practically the faces of the scene.
Ha, fuck yes we were. The original fairly stupid crew was originally spearheaded by Jack, he would do all the talking for us to get into shows and distract the cops while we lifted copper wire. Ugly Duckling was a crazy motherfucker, he lived life like he had nothing to lose. Mostly I guess because he just looked like an absolute abomination. We loved him anyway. 

But I think most people would agree you stood out the most at shows. What made you stand out from the rest of Fairly Stupid?
Well it was easy to open up the pit and be the center of attention when you smell like rotting food 24/7. But those shows were the only places I felt like I could be myself. I do think Red Running Shorts, and Little Red Hen deserves some credit too, they ignored that no pussy in the pit bullshit and fucked a lots of dudes up (laughs).

When do you think it all started coming apart? There was a lot of death in such a short time.
Im not saying it was entirely Rudy Gulianis fault, but once he became mayor he started cracking down on squatters and petty theft and really killed the vibe and things were tense. The Giant had a schizophrenic episode, crippled Jack and then killed Little Red Hen. But the nail in the coffin was Ducky Lucky, Chicken Licken, Goosey Loosey, Foxy Loxy, AND Cocky Locky getting crushed by the Table of Contents. After that everyone left except for me and Cinderumpelskilstin. Shes the only one who could work.

I guess youre the last of a dying breed. Has your outlook on life changed after all these years?...

Scientists Have Recreated the Real Face of Jesus if He Was Into the Insane Clown Posse "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Jesus of Nazareth was undeniably one of the most influential figures in human history. His message of love and compassion (later rebranded as xenophobia and hatred toward poor people) still permeates our culture, and yet so little is known about Christ the man. What did the historical Jesus look like? How did he really live? What sort of Juggalo would he be? These are the questions that have plagued scholars since the release of The Great Milenko.

Today, science is shedding some dope-ass light on the Hatchetman of hatchetmen.

Its common knowledge today that Jesus didnt have flowing straight blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. He likely had dark/olive skin, dark curly hair, and brown eyes. It is also common knowledge that the Insane Clown Posse is the most important cultural movement of our time.

If Jesus was alive today he undoubtedly would have been a Juggalo, a diehard fan of the Insane Clown Posse, or any group signed to Psychopathic Record. Dr. Joshuel Kurtz, the project leader responsible for remaining Christ as a Jugallo, shared some insights into the potential importance of his teams work.

If Jesus gave the sermon on the mound today, it would undoubtedly preach the doctrine of Jugga-love. Weve all heard the story of Christ turning water into wine, and its probably just a story, but what were speculating here is, what if it actually happened? And what if, instead of wine, it was Faygo? And what flavor would it be? Shit like that. We had a lot of grant money and unlimited time, so were exploring the Jesus-as-Juggalo premise from every conceivable angle

To anyone who dismisses this project as a crude, amateurish photoshop job, unworthy of the three years and six million dollars in grant money it took to complete, the Juggalo community has only one thing to say to you: Watch your ass.

Womans Parents Keep Asking When She and Boyfriend Going to Start Podcast Together "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

TOWSON, Md. Local woman Cassandra Fedge is feeling mounting pressure from her parents to get serious and start a podcast with her longtime boyfriend, according to sources within her Sunday brunch group.

My parents keep talking about how their friends daughters are all starting podcasts with their partners. Theyre really getting up my ass about it, said Fedge. The straw that broke the camels back was my cousin Sara. She and her boyfriend are in their late thirties and have been together forever. Nobody thought they were ever going to settle down and start a podcast together. But then Sara made a Facebook post saying the two of them are launching one recapping Supernatural from the beginning. My mom called me within minutes.

Fedges boyfriend Thad Susser said that while the two of them are in love, they feel theyre still pretty young to be making that kind of commitment.

Were only in our mid-twenties, said Susser. Weve got our whole lives ahead of us, and people are pushing us to make these big, content-based decisions. Her parents dont understand that not everyone has to follow the same path. If and when we do start a podcast together, maybe it wont be a traditional arrangement. Maybe itll be the two of us hosting, but sometimes well bring on a third. Its the 21st century for Christs sake.

Relationship advice podcaster Sheila Lovelock said she sees some red flags in Fedge and Sussers case.

When a coupleespecially a young white couple like this who share common interests in video games and movieshave been together for a few years and still express no desire to start a podcast, it could be a sign that the relationship is in trouble, said Lovelock. Really, they should be grateful for the way things are now. They should think of it from their parents point of view: when their generation was young, podcasts didnt even exist. Couples basically had to talk to each other one-on-one all the time, with no audience or Patreon subscribers at all.

At press time, the couple had agreed to join a Dungeons & Dragons group which streams weekly on Twitch as a compromise to appease Fedges parents.

Happy Birthday Birth Information Update! "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

It is now eight years since I sent out the first of our Birth Information Update newsletters.

As I love birthdays, I always like to pause and reflect on how far weve come. And invite you to sign up for my free monthly newsletter if you havent done so already.

Our Birth Information Update came about when I realised that we needed to (re)create independent, midwife-led sources of birth-related research and information. These needed to be midwife-led, thoughtful, positively focused and free of advertising for pharmaceutical drugs, baby milk, technologies, baby products and so on.

I was already looking at lots of research and the latest birth-related information as a part of my day job. I write books and, when I began, I was also doing a lot of speaking and consultancy for midwives, doctors, birth folk and others. So I knew that finding the content wouldnt be a problem.

I decided that I cared enough about this to donate some of my time to the project. I then looked into the running costs, which were a bit more of an issue. Not insurmountable, but we needed a few hundred pounds to set it all up.

A friend said, why dont you crowdfund?

What a great idea!

I sewed a load of little fabric hearts (some of which feature in the picture below) which we exchanged for donations towards the project at conferences and workshops.

"Erasing Islamic Faith": Muslim Cleric Flees Saudi Arabia for Safety "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

A Saudi cleric and religious scholar who went missing after criticizing the kingdoms rulers for implementing social reforms have reportedly fled the country, reports from the Middle East Monitor and Middle East Eye say.

Emad Al-Moubayed, a prominent religious scholar in Saudi Arabia and the former head of the King Abdulaziz Mosque in Dammam released a video on the first of March through his Twitter account, condemning the recent social changes in the country, including a lifting of the ban on music concerts.

The Twitter video he uploaded was addressed to King Salman, Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman, and Turki Al-Sheikh, the chief of the kingdoms Authority for Entertainment. Al-Moubayed advised "those in power," referring to the kingdoms rulers, to "fear God, saying that the social changes were "erasing the Islamic faith and replacing the identity of Islam with other identities.

But a day after he posted the video, another video was released showing Al-Moubayed reading a piece of paper in front of him, seemingly rescinding the past criticisms he made. Some speculated he was forced to read the paper while in custody. The video was posted with a Tweet saying it was a "clarification" of his previous comments.

He Told His Father What He Should Call His Baby. Is He Wrong? "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Are you ready for another story that involves family drama from the Am I the A**hole? page on Reddit?

Well, youre in the right place!

So what do you say we dive right in and see whats going on between this man and his father?

Start now!

AITA for telling my father what he can call his baby?

My (34M) father (56M) just had a baby with his girlfriend.

I get along really well with his girlfriend. Shes cool and laid-back and babysits my daughter (9) for me. So this has nothing to do with me not liking his girlfriend or my new baby sister. Of course I love my new sister. Heres the problem.

My dad insists on calling my new baby (emphasis on baby) sister my daughters aunt. And she doesnt like it. Shes at that age where shes starting to want to feel grown-up, and she h**es when my dad says stuff like say hi to aunty (sisters name). Ive asked my dad repeatedly not to do this in front of my daughter. I also asked his girlfriend and she didnt have a problem with it.

My dad insists that his daughter is my daughters aunt (technically true) so thats how he needs to refer to her to my daughter and how my daughter should refer to her even. Weve been fighting about it, and he eventually snapped at me and told me I cant tell him what to call his own baby.

I mean, yes, technically, but cmon. Am I the a**hole?

Iran's Double Standards Exposed as Russian Officer Spotted without Hijab "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

A female Russian military officer caused controversy in Iran by attending a public event while wearing a short-sleeved military uniform without a hijab, sparking further debate on the countrys mandatory hijab rules.

Tasnim News Agency, a media outlet connected to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), released photos of the Russian female officer on March 16th. In the pictures, the woman, who was not identified, was shown attending a press conference related to ongoing military exercises between the Iranian, Chinese, and Russian navies in the Gulf of Oman.

Recently, Iran, Russia, and China strengthened their economic and military ties amidst growing tensions over the ongoing Mahsa Amini protests, the continuing war on Ukraine, and long-standing disputes over the self-ruled island of Taiwan, respectively.

However, the Russian female military officer was seen wearing a dark-green military uniform with short sleeves. Although the woman wore long pants and a military hat, she was seen not wearing a hijab or any Islamic head covering.

The controversy comes after Iran recently implemented a stricter new law requiring female pharmacists to wear a black hijab while working. It also came two days after Bijan Nobaveh, a member of the Iranian parliaments Cultural Commission, passed a seven-point proposal on better enforcing the mandatory hijab rules in the country.

Following the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini under police custody in September last year, the Islamic Republic never backtracked on its laws requiring Iranian women to wear a headscarf or hijab and loose-fitting trousers under their coats while in public....

Iranian Men Wear Hijabs in Viral Protest "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Since the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini under the custody of the Iranian morality police for allegedly not wearing her hijab correctly, massive waves of demonstrations, primarily led by Iranian women, have challenged not just the countrys mandatory hijab law but also the regime that strictly enforces it.

But while the protests that have started since September 2022 brought the issue to the international stage, the Islamic Republic only intensified its crackdowns further against any dissident, man or woman. The Iranian government detained thousands of protesters, tortured several dissidents, and even sentenced them to death.

In its latest attempt to suppress dissent, the Iranian Food and Drug Administration released a new order that required female pharmacy workers to wear a black hijab while at work.

A few weeks ago, officials from the agency sent letters to trade unions urging them to strictly implement the new mandatory law in stores and businesses across Irans capital, Tehran.

The new directive also requires pharmacy managers to monitor how their female employees wear the hijab. Online news site Iran International also reported that anyone wishing to open a new pharmacy should submit a written commitment to authorities promising to follow this new rule.

However, Iranian male pharmacy workers showed their support and solidarity for their female co-workers and mocked the law by wearing black hijabs themselves while at work.

Lets see if this father is acting like an a**hole in regard to his ex and their custody agreement.

AITA for refusing to change a custody agreement because Im not being offered anything in return?

My ex and I share 50/50 of our 9yo son. Basically we have him every other week. She also has a 5yo from her second marriage. Theyre divorced and the custody arrangement is like ours except she the 5yo on the week that I have our 9yo.

Her second ex husband refused to work around our custody agreement so my ex asked me to change ours. This is a huge deal and the reality is that I cannot just sign off it. If I just say okay then shell start asking for more accomodations at my expense.

I told her to think about what shes going to offer me to go along with this plan. She got mad that I just wouldnt just do it. Honestly if she would had offered me something like an extra holiday then Id go along with it.

She even said that she wasnt going to pay my legal fees because a judge has to sign off any custody changes in our state.

Americas Faith In Technology is Leading the Financial Collapse of a Once Great Country "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

by Brian Shilhavy
Editor, Health Impact News

Todays meeting of the Federal Reserve and their announcement regarding interest rates was, by far, the most anticipated financial announcement so far in 2023.

Since the start of the banking collapse of the past couple of weeks, there has been widespread speculation about what the Fed was going to do today.

Would they announce rate cuts and the return of easy money, which would throw a life preserver out to Americas smaller banks, or would they continue with rate hikes in an attempt to lower inflation, but potentially doom hundreds of Americas smaller and mid-sized banks to collapse?

It was a no-win situation for the Fed, and most were anticipating at least a halt in rising interest rates, if not the announcement of rate cuts.

In the end, the Fed announced another rate increase, stating that rate cuts were not on the table for the rest of 2023.

Trying to calm the nerves of investors on Wall Street, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell announced that all depositor savings were safe, and that they were prepared to use all tools to keep the U.S. banking system safe and sound. (Source.)

However, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who was testifying before a Senate Appropriations subcommittee at the same time Powell was making his remarks, was asked if the FDIC was going to raise the limit on bank deposits that are insured above the current $250,000 limit, and she replied:

This is not something we have looked at, its not something that were considering, said Yellen. (Source.)

Whoops! The stock markets then began a steep decline in the final hour of trading, as soon as she said that.

Bank stocks tumbled once again, but they are not the only ones looking at disaster. The automobile industry and the housing market are also in big trouble now, as U.S. consumers ability to borrow money and make major purchases will now get even worse.

And just as a reminder, this current crisis of liquidity and downward spiral all began last year when FTX blew up, and the Big Tech sector began massive layoffs.

My current gloves are cheap, rugged, fairly comfortable, but not attachment point. This is maybe my fourth or fifth pair? I usually will use them to death then replace. Tried a pair that was partly leather, but did not like it as much. The fingertip dexterity wasn't that good on that pair.

Could This Vitamin Slow Brain Aging and Ward Off Alzheimers? "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

When you eat a varied diet based on whole foods, your body enjoys access to the myriad nutrients contained therein. The trace nutrient nicotinamide riboside (NR), a precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and a form of vitamin B3, is among them.

Found in milk as well as in supplement form, NR may help to boost levels of NAD+, which typically declines in the brain with age, leading to metabolic and cellular dysfunction.1 By raising NAD+ levels, NR may modify neurodegenerative disease in humans, helping to slow brain aging.

NR Restores NAD+ in the Brain

NAD+ modulates energy production and many enzymes and in so doing controls hundreds of processes in your body including the survival of cells and energy metabolism.

NAD+ is influenced on a daily basis by what you eat, exercise levels and more, and also declines with age, leading to changes in metabolism and an increased risk of disease.2 Dr. Christopher Martens, director of the Delaware Center for Cognitive Aging Research, told Medical News Today:3

NAD+ is essential for cells to create energy and there is strong evidence from animal studies that aging and metabolic dysfunction results in a depletion of NAD+ within cells. Therefore, there is strong rationale that replenishing the NAD+ within the brain could have a positive effect on brain function.

In a study published in the journal Aging Cell, Martens and colleagues found that NR supplementation increases NAD+ levels and lowers biomarkers of neurodegeneration in plasma extracellular vesicles enriched for neuronal origin (NEVs).4

Among the 22 older adults who took NR at a dosage of 500 milligrams twice a day for six weeks, NAD+ levels in NEVs increased while kinases involved in insulin resistance and neuroinflammatory pathways decreased.5 The results suggest NR, by increasing NAD+, could help ward off Alzheimers disease. Martens explained in Medical News Today:6

We dont have definitive proof that the supplement itself crosses the blood-brain barrier, especially not from our data. What we do know is that taking the supplement results in an increase in NAD+ within tiny vesicles that likely originated in the brain and other neural tissue.

This is one of the big challenges in the field [d]etermining whether the compound can reach its intended target. [A]lthough we do not have direct e...

Fearmongering Goes Nuclear 'We're in Brand-New Pandemic' "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

From Dr. Joseph Mercola

Since COVID-19 first entered the scene, exchange of ideas has basically been outlawed. By sharing my views and those from various experts throughout the pandemic on COVID treatments and the experimental COVID jabs, I became a main target of the White House, the political establishment and the global cabal.

Propaganda and pervasive censorship have been deployed to seize control over every part of your life, including your health, finances and food supply. The major media are key players and have been instrumental in creating and fueling fear.

I am republishing this article in its original form so that you can see how the progression unfolded.

Originally published: April 14, 2021

In some areas of the world, including Florida, where I live, life has been fairly normal for almost a full year. Restaurants opened last April, and people have flocked here from out of state and even from other countries to enjoy the fresh air and open businesses. This clearly does not benefit the globalists agenda, so, right on cue, fearmongering is ramping up another notch. The latest fear du jour is a double-mutation of SARS-CoV-2, said to target younger people.

April 5, 2021, the New York Post1 reported the double mutant COVID-19 strain has been detected in California a state that has experienced some of the longest and most restrictive pandemic measures in the U.S. At the time of that report, one case of the variant had been confirmed by a Stanford laboratory. Seven suspected cases were still being screened.

Fear Du Jour: Vaccine-Evading Variants

The double-mutation virus allegedly has two mutations previously found in two separate variants, which help it latch onto cells, the New York Post writes.2 What they want you to fear now is that this new variant may be more resistant to vaccine antibodies. Younger people might also be more susceptible to it.3

According to the Observer,4 COVID-19 variants could beat vaccines within a year if pharma policy doesnt change. In other words, they claim that unless sufficiently high numbers of the global population are vaccinated within nine to 12 months, the virus might mutate to evade first-generation vaccines, rendering them useless.

Oklahoma has also confirmed the presence of variants one that initially emerged in the U.K., and another that emerged in Brazil. According to The Oklahoman,...

COVID Made McDonald's a Public Health Savior "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

McDonald's and "public health" don't even belong in the same sentence, but this didn't stop the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) from enlisting the fast food giant to promote its COVID-19 public health education campaign.

HHS, whose stated goal is to "enhance the health and well-being of all Americans,"1 partnered not with a health food company, fitness outlet or even a hospital or medical facility but, rather, McDonald's, which produces and promotes some of the unhealthiest ultraprocessed food on the planet food that likely played a role in making COVID-19 outcomes worse.

Nonetheless, it was positioned as a tool for public health and used as part of the widespread propaganda to get more people injected with COVID-19 shots.

McDonald's Provides 'Trusted' Information on COVID-19

In 2021, the Biden Administration called for COVID "misinformants," including yours truly, to be removed from all social media platforms, censoring the ability to provide useful and truthful COVID-19 information. The irony of the Biden Administration then partnering, that same year, with McDonald's to "provide trusted, independent information on COVID-19 vaccines"2 is palpable.

The joint initiative debuted May 2021 and included use of a McDonald's billboard in Times Square to promote COVID-19 shots. That July, McDonald's added promotional material leading customers to vaccines.gov to its hot McCaf cups and McDelivery seal stickers.

The packaging including imaging and text promoting HHS' We Can Do This initiative, which is intended to "increase confidence in COVID-19 vaccines and reinforce basic prevention measures."3

Included prominently on its We Can Do This webpage are recommendations on COVID-19 shots for young children and tools to address "vaccine misconceptions," including premade graphics to share on social media and a community toolkit to shutdown "misinformation."4 In a press release, McDonald's proudly promoted its new role as a public health educator:5

"The initiative will begin with the debut of COVID-19 vaccine information from trusted third parties on McDonald's billboard in Times Square. Starting in July, McDonald's hot McCaf cups and McDelivery seal stickers will lead customers to vaccines.gov, where they can learn more about how they can protect themselves and the people they love from COVID-19, as well as where to find vaccine appointments near...

Are Bank Failures a Sign of More Trouble Ahead? "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

This article was originally published by Ron Paul at The Mises Institute. 

The failure of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) on March 10 was the second-largest bank failure in US history. Just two days following SVBs collapse, Signature Bank joined the record books as the third-largest bank failure in US history. First Republic Bank also seemed on the edge of collapse until Bank of America, Citigroup, and other big banks agreed to jointly fund a bailout for it.

Major Swiss bank Credit Suisse was also teetering on the brink when it received a 54 billion dollar line of credit from the Swiss UBS Group last week. Now, UBS is in the process of buying Credit Suisse. Politicians, regulators, and financial experts all rushed to assure us these problems were all caused by factors unique to the individual banks and were not a sign of systemic weakness in the banking system.

The bank failures and near failures caused nervous banks to borrow a combined 164.8 billion dollars in one week from the Federal Reserves discount window and the Bank Term Funding Program, a new program created by the Fed to make loans to troubled banks. The Fed created this program even though supposedly there is no systemic problem in the banking industry.

While SVB didnt receive a bailout, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) guaranteed the full amount of all deposits even though Congress set a standard FDIC guarantee on deposits of up to 250,000 dollars. By covering all SVB deposits, the FDIC has created an expectation among depositors at major financial institutions (as well as the institutions themselves) that the government will cover 100 percent of deposits. This will cause both depositors and banks to make investment decisions they typically would not make, thus guaranteeing larger bank failures followed by more bailouts for wealthy depositors.

Some have blamed the current bank failures, along with other signs that the economy is on the verge of a major downturn, on the Federal Reserves interest rate increases. It is true the Fed bears responsibility. However, the rate increases are not the problem. The problem is the easy money and low or zero interest rate policies the Fed pushed since the 2008 market meltdown, which was caused by the bursting of the Fed-created housing bubble. Federal Reserve manipulation of the money supply distorts interest rates, which are the price of money. This distorts the signals sent to market actors regarding the true value of investing in particular industries. The result is malinvestments in those industries creating a bubble. The bubble will inevitably burst.

The economic downturn that follows the bursting of a bubble is necessary to cleanse the economy of malinvestments. The correction will not last long and the economy will emerge stronger if Congress, the Treasury Depar...

Did You Know These Museums Were Free for New Yorkers? "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Was anyone else clued into the fact that New Yorkers have the right to free admission for 17 arts and culture institutions situated on New York City parklands?

Now, one New York native is on the quest to advocate for NYC residents free admission rights, a perk of living (and paying taxes) in the Big Apple that institutions dont always make clear.

Pat Nicholsons Free Admission campaign references the mid-1800s law allotting free rent on park land to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in exchange for free admission to New York residents as part of a Park Education Campus that was later amended throughout the following century to incorporate 16 additional publicly supported institutions. These include the Brooklyn Museum, the five locations within the New York Zoological Society (AKA Wildlife Conservation Society), th...

Intuitive Astrology Forecast April 2023 "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

April 2023 brings the start of Eclipse Season with a New Moon Total Solar Eclipse in Aries on the 19th.

Eclipses are always a highly transformative time, so you can expect April to bring some changes and shifts in your life. A new opportunity may present itself, or someone new may come into your life. Due to the energies surrounding this months Eclipse, its very likely that a new chapter will begin for us in some way.

April 2023 also brings the first retrograde planet since January, with Mercury stationing retrograde on the 21st.

Mercury can bring a slow down to the cosmic energies, guiding us to reflect. Since this is the first retrograde we have had in a few months, we may notice the shift more clearly. Things from the past may come back up to the surface, or we may find ourselves feeling the need to pause, especially when it comes to making decisions.

As we reach the months end, we are still deep in the transformative Eclipse energies as we head towards the Scorpio Lunar Eclipse on May 5th.

Here are the key dates to note throughout the month-

April 2023 Astrology Forecast

April 3- Mercury enters Taurus

Mercury enters Taurus where it will retrograde later in the month. Mercury moving from Aries into Taurus will help to slow things down a little. Our minds may become quieter and we may find it easier to move into a place of stillness. Clarity is more likely to dawn from stillness rather than action.

April 5- Sun Conjunct Chiron

A beautiful day of healing and appreciation for the wounds that have made us who we are today. Chiron is an asteroid known as the wounded healer. It is activated by the Sun on this day, guiding us to shine a light on how our wounds, although painful, have guided us to this point in our lives. Chiron teaches us that while some wounds may never leave us, they can still be the birthplace of something beautiful. You can read more on this here.

April 6- Libra Full Moon

There is strong healing energy connected to this Full Moon thanks to yesterdays meeting of the Sun and Chiron. It is likely that this Full Moon will bring healing breakthroughs, allowing us to find the strength, compassion, and awareness that our wounds can bring us. The Full Moon in Libra may also shine a spotlight on our partnerships and how we show up in our relationships. We may find ourselves needing to let go or release attitudes, behaviors, or patterns that are no longer serving us in our relationships. It is hard to be aware of our unhelpful or even harmful behaviors, but this Full Moon can illuminate things for us, allowing us to step deeper into the work. We just have to be open and willing.

Cock And Balls Given Own Box On Ballot Sheet "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

ballot box

The Australian Electoral Commission has confirmed that busy voters wishing to draw a picture of a cock and balls on their ballot paper will be given an option of ticking a box next to a pre drawn cock and balls.

We know that plenty of people want to draw a C & B but we also understand that Saturdays are busy days what with having to get the kids to soccer and ballet, said AEC spokesperson Gary Sizzle. Therefore this years ballot papers will contain a ready made cock and balls especially commissioned from cartoonist Johannes Leak so that people without enough time to draw their own can still register a traditional protest vote that suggests that all the candidates are essentially genitalia.

You simply need to tick the cock and balls above the line in the upper house plus a further five options and put a number 1 next to the cock and balls in the lower house ballot, said cock and balls campaign manager Uma Plums, who intends to spend July the 2nd handing out how to vote cock and balls cards at a local polling booth.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz Introduces Anti-CBDC Bill "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

Ted Cruz has joined a myriad of politicians in demonstrating their contempt for CBDCs in America but what about pro-Bitcoin legislation?

Texas Governor Ted Cruz has joined a growing group of politicians who have come out in support of anti-CBDC bills, reintroducing legislation to the Senate that would prohibit a direct to consumer Federal Reserve-issued CBDC.

Recent weeks have seen several U.S. state politicians at the center of these actions. The trend was seemingly kicked off by the introduction of Congressman Tom Emmers CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act, a bill that would prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC directly to anyone.

This was followed by South Dakota Governor Kristi Noems decision to veto House Bill 1193, which would have amended the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code in the state. The bill adopts a definition of money to specifically exclude cryptocurrencies. But these revisions do include Central Bank Digital Currencies as money. These developments concern me for several reasons, Governor Noem explained.

Subsequent to this, Florida Governor Ron Desantis held a press conference in which he stood at a podium labeled Big Brothers Digital Dollar, proclaiming that Florida shall be a CBDC-free state.

But, in a recent article written for the Bitcoin Policy Institute titled In Attempt to Stop CBDCs, States Are Rejecting Ostensibly Pro-Bitcoin Legislation, Yal Ossowski described how the House Bill 1193 blocked by Gov. Noem would actually have been a benefit for bitcoin, not a net negative. In his opinion, the response to House Bill 1193 did not consider the full respects of the changes to the Uniform Commercial Code, and he cautions politicians that they should be careful to not block bills that could potentially benefit bitcoin.

The bill in question based on an update to the Uniform Commercial Code not only expands definitions and protections for Bitcoin, but actually creates a legal mechanism for recognizing self-custody and for the protocols inclusion in traditi...

What Do Shtreimels and Cowboy Hats Have in Common? "IndyWatch Feed Allcommunity"

One December morning, among the sparse riders waiting for the G train in Brooklyn, New York, I saw a tall Black man with a colorful jacket and a cowboy hat. I took some photos as I introduced myself to Richard Faison. I am also an artist and I actually made this hat, he told me. 

A few weeks later, a friend who was visiting from Florence casually mentioned she wanted to buy a hat while here, and I arranged to see Faison in his lab, which turned out to also be his apartment. The one-bedroom apartment was filled with dozens of hats at various stages of existence and along with my friend Michles green hat, two more were being blocked and were drying by the window. On the wall was hanging a shtreimel, the first one that Faison made: these hats, traditionally worn by Orthodox Jewish men, were in fact his specialty.

Sitting down with Faison on his sofa on that day, and once again more recently, I asked him some questions. Our conversations have been edited and condensed for clarity.
