Kittens there are few things in life that are more perfect than sitting down to with the mighty Crudely Interupted lap top with a strong black coffee and The Manic Street Preachers blistering through my headphones.

It’s during these peaceful moments that as the good lady Missus quite astutely pointed out this past weekend while we were talking about the usual criticism this blog receives for tea bagging the establishments that not only does it have a symbiotic relationship with the media and it’s detractors of Crudely Interupted, but mostly that I am Sam the Sheepdog.

(Notice the strong physical resemblance)

You see Kittens, Sam the Sheepdog and I have a lot on common. We both wake up, have a cup of coffee and then go to work protecting the grazing oblivious sheep from the sneaky plotting treacherous wolf. You know…Whitey.

(Boink)

Sam and I punch the clock every day and calmly do our our gig. We don’t miss anything through our messy tussled mops and are always ready to smack the wolf around when he miss behaves, which he always does because he is a wolf. Again, this is the symbiotic relationship.

Sam the Sheepdog and Ralph the Wolf both have jobs to do while the sheep are just happy being sheep. Mindlessly wandering around content not to bump into too many things while acting and looking just like each other.

This is also pretty much how it works with Crudely Interupted.

Since the mainstream media have become gutless punks who can’t be bothered to ask any questions anymore when they report a story and are now content just to report on whatever Jon and Kate are up to as front page news while burying real news stories deep in the back pages about how badly you are getting fucked but not telling you why or how, yet still have the balls to actually charge for their ass wipe rags and cable news channels people turn to blog like Crudely Interupted for opinions. You remember those don’t you Kittens? Places where a news story turns up, research is done on both sides of a story and just like in newspapers and on television an opinion is put forth after the facts are laid out.

The media have become the sheepole that they used to inform and then wonder why in the age of information fewer people are turning to them for the information that they no longer provide anyways. Just like Sam and Ralph, there is always going to be a wolf or two looking to feast on a nice plump hapless sheep and there will always need to be a sheepdog to keep an eye on him and stop the fucker. Thankfully one of the few vestiges of mankind is that we are at least partially self regulating in the form of the fifth estate, the angry mob.

Celebrities and gossip magazines have an oddly symbiotic withstanding relationship that has all but disappeared from mainstream media.

Celebrities wouldn’t be celebrities without the gossip media. They would just be what they are. Some people who enjoy dressing up in somebody elses clothes who are rather good at remembering words written on bits of paper. Without somebody to talk about her, Jennifer Aniston would just go away. This by the way Kittens is partially a point and partially a plea. Somebody please make her go away.

Gossip columnists also wouldn’t have a job without some people to gossip about. They wouldn’t have jobs without celebrities to pester, judge and point their fingers at when celebrities go bat shit and make sex tapes of themselves so they would have to resume their lives as cackling vacant post teenage bimbos and screaming queens. The two being mostly hard to differentiate.

At least the gossip columnists do serve one purpose which the mainstream media doesn’t bother with anymore. They actually ask questions and when a celebrity does something painfully horrifying like kidnap a new shiny African kid, they are the first one to say “what the fuck you gnarled old lady?”

Thankfully the critics of this blog have some time on their hands…..to hate it. Good for them. Bring it on. It is part of the never ending cycle of who is watching the watcher watching the watchmen. Opinions are a bit like physics. For every opinion there is usually an opposite opinion. Normally this is a good thing unless you are talking about genocide.

Thankfully as fearless leader of a small army chronically masturbating of self entitled zygote minion sycophantic kleptomaniac arsonists I can leave the heavy lifting and lost causes to them. At the very least it gives them character and them a few well deserved pistol whippings.

It’s only a day gig where the Sheepdog and the Wolf co-exist.

When you write a daily column like they used to in the newspapers frequently you are asked “what about writers block?” “What happens if there is nothing happening in the world?”

Bullshit…you pussies.

There is always something to writ about because there is always some pie wagon prick doing something horrible. The Wolf never took a day off and it was his job to fuck somebody else over. That’s what they do. Sam the Sheepdog punched his clock every day and his job was to punch the shit out of Ralph, with comedic effect.

Day in and day out at the Acme Factory which is the Crudey Interupted blog it is the same thing. Over and over, the daily battle for a cup of black coffee, the clock is punched and the swinging begins. Then, at the end of the day the clock is punched again it is time to go home to the family.

The Missus was right. She frequently is.

ESPN announced today that it has suspended Bob Griese for one week due to the backlash from his ”Taco Eater” quip this past Saturday, while making an off-hand joke about the whereabouts of Juan Pablo Montoya during the telecast of a college football game he was announcing.

ESPN is owned by The Walt Disney Co.

Juan Pablo Montoya , when asked about his feelings on the joke, stated Sunday that …”he did not care about it one way or the other”.., and further stated…”he’d never heard of Griese”…

 Some of my Colombian friends have told me that they do not take it as an insult, just ignorance, because they do not even eat Tacos in Colombia.

I am very impressed by this, and I have to go with what they think is appropriate, but, I know that what is behind that is somewhat insulting.

I grew up in a border town in Southern California, and I remember the first time I met a Puerto Rican kid that had moved out from New York city.

We immediately nicknamed him ”New York”, and he was wicked on the basketball court, because he had crazy drives, passing, and crossover skills, and we had never seen someone play like that.

At that time, most of the kids I grew up with were heavily Mexican American, so we thought ”New York Puerto Ricans” were Mexican just because they were Latino. The parents of ”New York” after hearing us refer to him as Mexican, quickly corrected us, and did a lot to educate all of us about Puerto Rico, as well as several other Central and South American culture.

It is embarrassing to have been that ignorant, but at least we were children then, we were not even teenagers yet.

Now we all know, and can pass on the correct information. That was the 70’s,which was a long time ago, so I can only take a joke like that, from someone older than me, who should know better, as nothing but stupidity, or he may have some deep seeded racist tendencies.

I feel that any joke about someone’s race, religion, creed, and color, is not funny, unless you feel insults are funny, in which case you should be prepared to deal with the consequences.

There are always consequences, and it is not about what you feel or do not feel about the joke, it’s always about how it would be perceived in common, polite society, which still exist, no matter how much the neocon Republican terrorist would like it to disappear.

For the record, in Colombia one of the popular foods is an Arepa, a sort of cornmeal pancake.

ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz says Griese  “understands the comment was inappropriate.”

Does anyone know the meaning of  life??? We ask ourselves why all the time… Why do we have to be put through the pain, confusion, weakness and troubles?? They say god only gives us as much as we can handle, but why, if god was such a powerful man would he test us on how long we could live with the pain? Why does he want to see how long a person can be miserable for?? I will never understand the point to life. We are all passing by in what we call life. We think that we can never overcome the worst thing that has happened but we are going to and we will get stronger once we get past all of the first stages of grieving, may be next month, may be in a few years, how will we know if it ever stops… I know the memories will forever be there and the void of my DAD will never be filled and for every good thing in my life I know I will feel a bit bitter knowing my DAD is not there experiencing what I am when I had that planned for my life.. We all see things from a different point of view. Sometimes you have your whole life planned out, you expect it to go just the way you’ve always wanted then all of a sudden it all blows up in your face… My DAD had his life planned and it blew up in his face and that’s when it all blew up in mine… Now im trying to figure out what happens from here… I guess that’s why you have to live each day as if it were the last don’t plan your whole life out everything changes!

Seems like Disney’s claim that their popular Baby Einstein videos, are truly just entertainment, and not educational, as has been the companies claim for years vi the marketing campaign for the series.

The problem with that is that there is no credible evidence that DVDs can educate infants, and that the claim was simply a lie.

Some parents who are committed to exposing Disney’s fraud, with the assistance of the CCFC (Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood) , chose to bring a class-action lawsuit for “unfair and deceptive practices against the Mouse house and filed a complaint with the FTC about Baby Einstein’s marketing claims to expose their deception.

 Disney buckled, so in order to avoid a lawsuit , they are offering refunds on Baby Einstein DVDs purchased between June 5, 2004 and September 4, 2009.

Customers can receive a refund on the purchase price (up to $15.99) for up to four Baby Einstein DVDs per household.

Buyers can also exchange DVDs for a “Baby Einstein” book or music compact disc, or receive 25 percent off a “Little Einstein” product. The offer expires March 4.

If you were taken in by this  Disney Marketing campaign, and want to get your money back,visit BabyEinstein.com.

Sliced pork tenderloin on a bed of quick-cooking couscous

One tenderloin prepared as directed will yield 3 servings, while the couscous and salad will serve 4 to 5. It is easy to make two tenderloins, just double the rub amounts and continue as directed.

1 (approx. 1 pound) whole Pork Tenderloin
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large garlic clove
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon tumeric
Kosher salt
3 cups small cauliflower florets (1/2 to 1-inch pieces)
1 cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 large shallot, peeled and cut into 1/8-inch slices
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup couscous
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar

1 pint grape tomatoes
1 small white onion
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Kosher salt

Preheat the oven to 400′ F. Sprinkle the salt onto the garlic clove and mince together until the garlic and salt forms a paste. Mix in the 1/4-teaspoon cumin and 1/8-teaspoon ceyanne.

Trim the tenderloin removing most of the tough silverskin. Cut a couple of inches off the thin, pointy end so that you have a more uniform shape – it will cook more evenly. Save the small piece for another use. Rub the garlic mixture all over the pork and leave at room temperature about 30 minutes.

Prepare the Salad: cut each grape tomato crosswise into 2 or 3 pieces. Thinly slice and then chop the onion into 1/2-inch lengths. Mix together the tomato, onion, cilantro, vinegar and salt (about 1/4 teaspoon). Taste for seasoning and adjust with additional vinegar or salt as needed. Keep at room temperature until ready to serve.

Prepare the Couscous: Mix together the 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon tumeric and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Put the cauliflower florets on a baking sheet and sprinkle with the spice mixture. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and toss gently. Place into the hot oven. After 15 minutes, add the shallot slices and chickpeas to the pan and roast an additional for 10 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender. Right after placing the chickpeas in the oven, heat the chicken broth on high in a small saucepan. As soon as it reaches a boil, stir in 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and the couscous. Immediately remove from the heat and cover with a lid. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork and stir in the roasted cauliflower and chickpeas. Drizzle the teaspoon of vinegar over the couscous and toss. Keep warm until ready to serve.

Finish the Pork Tenderloin: Heat an oven-proof frying pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Sear the pork tenderloin, 2-3 minutes per side or until nicely browned. Put the pan into the 400′ oven for 15-17 minutes (you can do this while the cauliflower is still cooking) . When done, remove from oven and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing into 1/2-thick medalions.

Serve the salad, couscous and sliced pork together on warmed dinner plates.

I bought this book along with Baby Blender Food,and I really like this one the best.It has practical informationRE: safe food handling, the meaning behind nutritional and organic terms on product packaging, suggestions for stocking your pantry, and ideas about how to incorporate meals for the family fromthe recipes for the baby.It’s not rocket science,but sometimes I get caught up in the baby food process and don’t think about how to modify some of the ingredients for my own meal.She also has a helpful key that lists vegetarian,vegan, gluten-free recipe options.The recipes are pretty simple,and I’ve found that it’s easy and funto make food for my son.It also feels really good to know exactly what’s going into his food.I like the layout of the book,and I appreciate the information in it. Another review mentioned that she doesn’t outline food hazards like nitrates in the body of the recipes, but if you read the book fromthe beginning,she has pretty comprehensive explanations of what is safe to prepare and when it’s safe to prepare it.

Lieber Josef Bucher,

nachdem ich heute Ihr Sommergespräch mit Ingrid Thurnher und Michael Köhlmeier verfolgt habe, in dem Sie mir grundsätzlich sympathisch erschienen, möchte ich einen wesentlichen Gedanken Ihres Politikverständnisses hinterfragen. Zum Thema der gerade verhandelten Grundsicherung meinten Sie, dies wäre der falsche Weg. Und Sie begründeten Ihre Ablehnung einer Grundsicherung damit, dass wir dadurch gegenüber konkurrierenden Volkswirtschaften wie Indien oder China unseren Wettbewerbsvorteil verlören und stattdessen Menschen zur Leistung motivieren sollten, anstatt sie für das Tun von Nichts zu bezahlen.

Da ich selbst ein überzeugter Anhänger nicht nur der Grundsicherung, sondern noch viel mehr eines bedingungslosen Grundeinkommens bin, möchte ich Ihren Standpunkt hinterfragen. Sie sprechen wie die meisten Menschen wie selbstverständlich vom Begriff „Leistung“. Was aber ist Leistung?

Leistung wird definiert als „Arbeit pro Zeiteinheit“. Einfach gesagt heißt das: Wer schneller arbeitet, leistet mehr. Wenn wir Menschen, so wie Sie es wünschen, zur Leistung erziehen wollen, dann müssen wir sie zu schnellerer Arbeit anspornen. Was aber ist Arbeit?

Arbeit wird definiert als „Kraft mal Weg“. Einfach gesagt heißt das: Wer viel Kraft aufwendet und dies ein gutes Stück durchhält, der arbeitet viel. Was aber ist das Ziel dieser Kraftanstrengung? Wofür arbeiten wir?

Die Antworten darauf lassen sich in zwei Gruppen unterteilen:

1. Wir arbeiten für uns selbst.
2. Wir arbeiten für Andere.

Genau hier, bei der Beantwortung der Frage nach dem Ziel von Arbeit, teilt sich die Menschheit in zwei Hälften. Die Einen meinen, wir arbeiten, um unser Geld zu verdienen, die Anderen meinen, wir arbeiten, um für Andere etwas zu leisten. Und jetzt kommt der Clou: Beide Antworten sprechen für ein bedingungsloses Grundeinkommen. Denn:

1. Wenn wir für uns selbst arbeiten, welchen Sinn hätte diese Arbeit dann für irgendjemand anderen?
2. Wenn wir für Andere arbeiten, warum sollten wir dann davon profitieren?

Wenn wir davon ausgehen, dass Arbeit als Kraftanstrengung einen Sinn machen soll – sei es in Österreich, Indien oder China – dann muss diese Arbeit selbstbestimmt und frei stattfinden. Selbstbestimmt und frei ist der Mensch jedoch nur dann, wenn er wählen kann, ohne sein Überleben (oder das seiner Familie) zu gefährden. Der Mensch muss seine Arbeit frei wählen können. Kann er das nicht, dann geschieht Ausbeutung.

Um diese Freiheit zu garantieren, haben wir das Überlebenseinkommen jedes Menschen von seiner Arbeitsleistung zu trennen. Denn nur so leistet der Mensch seine Arbeit aus freien Stücken. Nur so ist er in der Lage, seine Arbeit selbstbestimmt und frei in möglichst sinnvoller Weise zu verrichten. Und dabei ist es dann wieder völlig egal, ob er die Arbeit für sein eigenes Wohlbefinden oder für das Wohlbefinden Anderer leistet.

Wir haben das lebenswerte Überleben jedes Menschen bedingungslos zu ermöglichen, indem wir Arbeit vom Grundeinkommen entkoppeln. Erst dann wird Arbeitsleistung sinnvoll, weil sie selbstbestimmt und freiwillig geschieht. Alles Andere ist ein Rennen im Treibsand.

Wenn Sie jedoch weiterhin gegenteiliger Ansicht sind und fürchten, leistungsmäßig hinter Indien und China zurückzufallen, dann empfehle ich Ihnen, möglichst Kinder- und Sklavenarbeit wieder einzuführen. Dann liegen wir bestimmt wieder vorne. Die Frage ist nur: Wobei?

Ich bin daher garantiert für die „soziale Hängematte“; für alle Menschen; auf der ganzen Welt.

Mit lieben Grüßen

Peter Wurm

Sketches and more sketches.  Lif in her Tube.

Banyolarınızda rahatlıkla kullanabileceğiniz, çeyizinizde farklı ve renkli tasarımlarıyla görenlerin beğenebileceği el işi örgü lif modelleri….

Lifli besinler hakkında bilinmesi gerekenlerin başında, iki grup lifli besin olduğunun bilinmesi gelir: suda eriyen ve erimeyen lifler.

Suda erimeyen lif içeren besinler (kuru erik gibi), dışkının miktarını artırarak, bağırsak faaliyetlerinin düzenlenmesinde son derece fayda sağlarlar. Bu tür suda erimeyen lifler, bitkilerin vücudumuz tarafından sindirilemeyen kısımlarıdır ve kompleks karbonhidratlardan meydana gelirler. Sindirim sisteminin iyi bir şekilde işlemesi için bu tür lifli besinlerin yeterince alınması gerekir.

Suda eriyen lif içeren besinler (yulaf ezmesi ve çavdar unu gibi), hakkında bir çok çalışma bulunmaktadır. Çalışmalar daha çok suda eriyen liflerin kolesterol düşürücü ve kalp hastalıklarını önleyici etkisi üzerinedir. Etki mekanizması tam olarak açıklanabilmiş olmamakla birlikte, kolesterol düşürücü etkisi üzerinde görüş birliği vardır. Bazı çalışmalar, bu liflerin kolesterolün (geri) emilimini azaltarak etki ettiğini ortaya koymuştur. Bu şekilde bağırsaklara salınan safraya bağlanırlar ve kalın barsak kanseri oluşumunu engelleyebilirler. Finlandiya da çavdar ekmeği kullananlarda gerçekleştirilen bir çalışmada, çavdar ekmeğinin tansiyonu, kolesterolü ve trigliseridi düşürdüğü, şekerlerin kullanımını arttırdığı ve kalp krizi riskini azalttığı iddia edilmiştir. Kısacası etki mekanizmaları tam olarak bilinmemekle birlikte kesin olan konu; lifli besinler sağlıklı bir yaşam için gereklidir.

Her iki tür liflerin kaynağı sebzeler, meyveler ve rafine edilmemiş hububattır. Üzerindeki etiketlerde genelde farklı yazmakla birlikte, hazır ekmekler çok az lif içerirler. Düzenli beslenen birisi genelde günde 11-15 gram kadar lif almaktadır. Ancak kalın barsak ve diğer kanserlere yakalanma riskini azaltmak için besinlerle birlikte ortalama 25-30 gram doğal kaynaklı lif almak gerekir. Bir porsiyon sebze ve meyve ortalama 3 gram lif içermektedir. Dolayısı ile günlük 4-5 porsiyon sebze ve meyve ve yeterli miktarda hububat ürünleri yenmelidir.

Aşağıda lif bakımından zengin besinler ve lif miktarları belirtilmiştir.

WHO HAS THE CONTROL—WACKY WEDNESDAY…

WHO WEARS THE PANTS IN YOUR FAMILY????

There are three in a row so watch all.

The rest of the week has been quite uneventful.

There has been no further comment from Edom or, thankfully, Ardat. I wonder if Edom now truly realises what he has got himself into with this woman.  A friend wrote me and suggested that this may be what Edom wants, someone to push into his real life to force him to choose what he wants.  Perhaps this is so.

As you might have noticed from my tweet yesterday, I was a little annoyed with Sir.  I had updated him on a chat I had with a Dom I occasionally chat with.  I am not required to do so but this other dom is such a – how do I put it? – interesting case that I like hearing about what goes on in his life.  Sometimes I don’t know whether to believe what he says or not. It matters not.  When it is really -um- different, I like to tell Sir.

I got what I felt was a very snotty message from Sir, setting out his precise thoughts, suggesting that I had continued chatting with a person he disliked, and hadn’t told him so.  nd then he said he did not want to hear any more about that person unless he specifically asked me.

Fine.

We worked it out of course.  He hadn’t meant it to sound like I shouldn’t be chatting with the fellow just because he didn’t like the guy.  And he did reiterate that he had no wish to interfere with my on-line friendships. So we are ok again.

Sir has gone away for the weekend.  He has limited internet access.  It’s good for me t(us) to go through these short periods of separation right now.  This summer he is traveling to Europe for a few weeks and we will be mostly incommunicado.

My weekend is very quiet with little planned.

I like it!

Well I have asked the question to myself for years, but like many others I am also moving along with the flow of life and doing what needs to be done at every point of life.  I was gifted with ‘time’ and ’space’ after my layoff to think again. why am I in this world? what will give me more satisfaction than anything else?

I have been pushing off reading Steve Pavlina’s blog  ‘How to discover your life purpose in 20 minutes?’ , for apparently no reason. Then I got around to reading that yesterday. In this he describes a technique of putting down into words what one thinks their life purpose is, allowing it to be lame, meaningless and keep revising it step by step , until you are at a point where what you have just written , makes you cry(not because you are tired of writing) , because you made a connection with yourself.

Needless to say, I wanted to try it. I opened up my notepad and started with the question ‘What is the purpose of my life?’  and I did not write a single word after that. Partly because it was late at night and I was too tired to think, although I really wanted to . Secondly I had no ideas, soooo blank.

Today during my afternoon nap also I kept thinking about this, but still nothing. Then I turned on my fav TV show ‘ The Oprah Winfrey Show’ . I would have passed up this episode as I thought earlier the topic they were to discuss ‘Child bullying in schools’ really was of no interest to me. I watched anyway, as my daughter decided to take a longer nap today. And then I had my ‘Aha’ moment. ‘Child Psychologist’ Yes this is what I need to do. Earlier when I was talking my husband about what I wanted to do eventually in life, I knew I had to work with children, but was not able to put my finger on what it was. Now I do.

Well the world has given it a tag of ‘Child psychologist’ but in my books, I would like to define my life purpose as follows

‘To understand what goes on in those tiny little minds and help them find their passion and be their best selves”

Wow so that is my vision statement. My statement did not exactly make me cry, as I have not be as adept with my words as I can be. But the thought of even being able to make a difference in a single child’s life brings goose bumps to me.  I owe that to my daughter first more than anyone else. But I would like to carry that forward to any number of kids I can work with and help them be their best.

Feeling soooo good about this.
