IACenter.org The Revolution of Everyday Life (Raoul Vaneigem Dedication To Ella, Maldoror and those who helped this adventure upon its way. “I LIVE ON THE EDGE OF THE UNIVERSE AND I DON’T NEED TO FEEL SECURE.” “Man walketh in a vain shew, he shews to be a man, and that’s all.” We seem to live in the State of variety, wherein we are not truly living but only in appearance: in Unity is our life: in one we are, from one divided, we are no longer. From: “Heights in Depths and Depths in Heights (or TRVTH no less secretly than sweetly sparkling out its Glory from under a cloud of Obloquie)” by the Ranter Jo. Introduction I have no intention of revealing what there is of my life in this book to readers who are not prepared to relive it. The world must be remade; all the specialists in reconditioning will not be able to stop it. As for the others, I ask for their goodwill with a humility they will not fail to perceive. I have never pretended to reveal anything new or to launch novelties onto the culture market. Part I. Chapter 1. Chapter 2.
The Society of the Spectacle (Guy Debord) The first version of this translation of The Society of the Spectacle was completed and posted online at my “Bureau of Public Secrets” website in 2002. The first print version was published by Rebel Press (London) in 2004 and several other editions were subsequently published in various print and digital formats. Meanwhile I continued to fine-tune the version on my website. There have been several previous English translations of Debord’s book. Regardless of such differences, I am pleased to note that my friends Lorraine Perlman (Fredy’s widow) and Donald Nicholson-Smith have graciously expressed enthusiastic support for the idea of providing annotations. Many people have told me that they became discouraged by the opening pages of the book and gave up. The book is not, however, as difficult or abstract as it is reputed to be. As I noted in The Joy of Revolution: In short, you can really understand this book only by using it. I hope this new edition helps you break out of that mold.
Why Obama Will Not Veto NDAA Military Detention of Americans: He Requested It. Sen. Carl Levin (D-MI) on Senate floor explaining it was Obama who requested the provision for indefinite military detention of American citizens without charge or trial. Senator Diane Feinstein recently confirmed that she was unable to excise Section 1031 in an email: Senator Feinstein Confirms President and Military Can Detain US Citizens Without a Trial Like you, I oppose these provisions. Section 1031 is problematic because it authorizes the indefinite detention of American citizens without due process. Senator Levin: Anonymous' Message to the American People Transcript: Dear brothers and sisters. In a stunning move that has civil libertarians stuttering with disbelief, the U.S. The National Defense Authorization Act is being called the most traitorous act ever witnessed in the Senate, and the language of the bill is cleverly designed to make you think it doesn't apply to Americans, but toward the end of the bill, it essentially says it can apply to Americans "if we want it to..."
Murray Bookchin - (1/8) - 'Urbanization Against Cities' - 1993 Movies and Children The Payne Fund studies were developed by the Motion Picture Research Council, which was working on the development of a national policy concerning motion pictures, especially concerning children. Motion Pictures and Youth is the first in a series of thirteen writings that share the findings of the research done concerning the influence of movies on children. This particular study was set up to discover the effect in five areas: information, attitudes, emotions, health, and conduct. Information This part of the study tested how much children will retain of what they see in movies. They found that 8 year olds will catch three out of every five things that the parents see. (Charters, 8) This means, for example, that if there are 20 murder scenes, then the child will remember 12 of them. Developing attitudes This part of the study attempted to relate movie watching to attitude formation. Influencing Conduct The last section of the study was on overall conduct of the children.

Captura de ecrã 2015 06 30, às 03 27 25 Free the Slaves - Slave-Free Business There’s slavery in every shopping mall in America. From cocoa, coffee and clothing, to cars, computers and cell phones—many products sold in the U.S. are tainted by slavery. Sometimes it’s sweatshop slavery where goods are manufactured. Other times, it’s brutal child slavery at plantations and mines where commodities and raw materials come from. Consumers, investors and regulators want to remove slavery from U.S. store shelves. In just eight minutes, business leaders will understand why government regulators are requiring companies to investigate, disclose, and eventually remove slavery from their product supply chains.This powerful documentary reveals the impact of supply-chain slavery on people in the U.S. and around the world. It is a valuable learning and motivational tool to accompany a corporation's written directives and training materials for compliance with state and federal requirements. Dr.
