Behind the New World Order The Dark World of the Deep State

The New World Order should more accurately be called the Deep State.

For decades, extreme ideologies on both the left and the right have clashed over the conspiratorial

concept of a shadowy secret government often called the New World Order pulling the strings

on the world�s heads of state and captains of industry.

The phrase New World Order is largely derided as a sophomoric conspiracy theory entertained

by minds that lack the sophistication necessary to understand the nuances of geopolitics.

But it turns out the core idea � one of deep and overarching collusion between Wall

Street and government with a globalist agenda � is operational in what a number of insiders

call the �Deep State.�

In the past couple of years, the term has gained traction across a wide swath of ideologies.

Former Republican congressional aide Mike Lofgren says it is the nexus of Wall Street

and the national security state � a relationship where elected and unelected figures join forces

to consolidate power and serve vested interests.

Calling it �the big story of our time,� Lofgren says the deep state represents the

failure of our visible constitutional government and the cross-fertilization of corporatism

with the globalist war on terror.

�It is a hybrid of national security and law enforcement agencies: the Department of

Defense, the Department of State, the Department of Homeland Security, the Central Intelligence

Agency and the Justice Department.

�I also include the Department of the Treasury because of its jurisdiction over financial

flows, its enforcement of international sanctions and its organic symbiosis with Wall Street,�

he explained.

Even parts of the judiciary, namely the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, belong to

the deep state.

How does the Deep State operate?

A complex web of revolving doors between the military-industrial-complex, Wall Street,

and Silicon Valley consolidates the interests of defense contractors, banksters, military

campaigns, and both foreign and domestic surveillance intelligence.

According to Mike Lofgren and many other insiders, this is not a conspiracy theory.

The deep state hides in plain sight and goes far beyond the military-industrial complex

President Dwight D. Eisenhower warned about in his farewell speech over fifty years ago.

While most citizens are at least passively aware of the surveillance state and collusion

between the government and the corporate heads of Wall Street, few people are aware of how

much the intelligence functions of the government have been outsourced to privatized groups

that are not subject to oversight or accountability.

According to Lofgren, 70% of our intelligence budget goes to contractors.

Moreover, while Wall Street and the federal government suck money out of the economy,

relegating tens of millions of people to food stamps and incarcerating more people than

China � a totalitarian state with four times more people than us � the deep state has,

since 9/11, built the equivalent of three Pentagons, a bloated state apparatus that

keeps defense contractors, intelligence contractors, and privatized non-accountable citizens marching

in stride.

After years of serving in Congress, Lofgren�s moment of truth regarding this matter came

in 2001.

He observed the government appropriating an enormous amount of money that was ostensibly

meant to go to Afghanistan but instead went to the Persian Gulf region.

This, he says, �disenchanted� him from the groupthink, which he says keeps all of

Washington�s minions in lockstep.

Groupthink � an unconscious assimilation of the views of your superiors and peers � also

works to keep Silicon Valley funneling technology and information into the federal surveillance

state.

Lofgren believes the NSA and CIA could not do what they do without Silicon Valley.

It has developed a de facto partnership with NSA surveillance activities, as facilitated

by a FISA court order.

Now, Lofgren notes, these CEOs want to complain about foreign market share and the damage

this collusion has wrought on both the domestic and international reputation of their brands.

Under the pretense of pseudo-libertarianism, they helmed a commercial tech sector that

is every bit as intrusive as the .

Meanwhile, rigging of the DMCA intellectual property laws � so that the government can

imprison and fine citizens who jailbreak devices � behooves Wall Street.

It�s no surprise that the government has upheld the draconian legislation for 15 years.

It is also unsurprising that the growth of the corporatocracy aids the deep state.

The revolving door between government and Wall Street money allows top firms to offer

premium jobs to senior government officials and military yes-men.

This, says Philip Giraldi, a former counter-terrorism specialist and military intelligence officer

for the CIA, explains how the Clintons left the White House nearly broke but soon amassed

$100 million.

It also explains how former general and CIA Director David Petraeus, who has no experience

in finance, became a partner at the KKR private equity firm, and how former Acting CIA Director

Michael Morell became Senior Counselor at Beacon Global Strategies.

Wall Street is the ultimate foundation for the deep state because the incredible amount

of money it generates can provide these cushy jobs to those in the government after they

retire.

Nepotism reigns supreme as the revolving door between Wall Street and government facilitates

a great deal of our domestic strife:

�Bank bailouts, tax breaks, and resistance to legislation that would regulate Wall Street,

political donors, and lobbyists.

The senior government officials, ex-generals, and high level intelligence operatives who

participate find themselves with multi-million dollar homes in which to spend their retirement

years, cushioned by a tidy pile of investments,� said Giraldi.

How did the Deep State come to be?

Some say it is the evolutionary hybrid offspring of the military-industrial complex while others

say it came into being with the Federal Reserve Act, even before the First World War.

At this time, Woodrow Wilson remarked,

�We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and

dominated governments in the civilized world, no longer a government by conviction and the

vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of

dominant men.�

This quasi-secret cabal pulling the strings in Washington and much of America�s foreign

policy is maintained by a corporatist ideology that thrives on deregulation, outsourcing,

deindustrialization, and financialization.

American exceptionalism, or the great �Washington Consensus,� yields perpetual war and economic

imperialism abroad while consolidating the interests of the oligarchy here at home.

Mike Lofgren says this government within a government operates off tax dollars but is

not constrained by the constitution, nor are its machinations derailed by political shifts

in the White House.

In this world � where the deep state functions with impunity � it doesn�t matter who

is president so long as he or she perpetuates the war on terror, which serves this interconnected

web of corporate special interests and disingenuous geopolitical objectives.

�As long as appropriations bills get passed on time, promotion lists get confirmed, black

(i.e., secret) budgets get rubber stamped, special tax subsidies for certain corporations

are approved without controversy, as long as too many awkward questions are not asked,

the gears of the hybrid state will mesh noiselessly,� according to Mike Lofgren in an interview

with Bill Moyers.

Interestingly, according to Philip Giraldi, the ever-militaristic Turkey has its own deep

state, which uses overt criminality to keep the money flowing.

By comparison, the U.S. deep state relies on a symbiotic relationship between banksters,

lobbyists, and defense contractors, a mutant hybrid that also owns the Fourth Estate and

Washington think tanks.

Is there hope for the future?

Perhaps.

At present, discord and unrest continues to build.

Various groups, establishments, organizations, and portions of the populace from all corners

of the political spectrum, including Silicon Valley, Occupy, the Tea Party, Anonymous,

WikiLeaks, anarchists and libertarians from both the left and right, the Electronic Frontier

Foundation, and whistleblowers like Edward Snowden and others are beginning to vigorously

question and reject the labyrinth of power wielded by the deep state.

Can these groups � can we, the people � overcome the divide and conquer tactics used to quell

dissent?

The future of freedom may depend on it.

Microsoft OneNote: Integrate with Office Suite - Duration: 13:41.

Hello, everyone.

Welcome to part four of our productivity demo,

Microsoft OneNote: Basics and beyond.

This is a six part demo, so please come back and

check out our other videos on this topic, or find other events and

videos at microsoft.com/itshowcase.

And now, on to part four.

>> One of the really neat features of

OneNote is the ability to integrate with the Microsoft suite.

So not only do we have the ability to just use it as a word processor,

to type in and tag items to do.

But it also integrates really well with PowerPoint, Excel, so

it's really neat features that are available for us.

So let's go into that and

take a look at what that's available for us.

So in this case, let's talk about that shopping list again.

A very common scenario with shopping is budget.

So we need to make a quick budget.

How can we do that?

Within OneNote we have the ability.

So I'm gonna go down to this page right here, this untitled page, and

type in Budget.

Now, what I'm gonna do, within Budget,

is I'm just gonna add a table, initially.

I'm going to go into the Insert tab and insert a brand new table.

So I'm going to go in and add in a pretty decent size table,

maybe a five by three.

So within this page, within my OneNote notebook, I've got Budget.

In this case I wanna talk about cake.

So what is the budget for the cake?

Well, we want to spend maybe $50 for a cake.

I don't know how much cakes cost.

Is that a lot?

That might be.

But that was our budget for the cake and

maybe we ended up only spending $35.

So let's talk about maybe organizing this in some sort of table.

So now we have our cake budget.

Maybe we have our food budget as well.

Maybe that's $100 and we ended up spending $125.

And maybe for activities we budgeted $200.

This is gonna be a fun party.

I don't know what activities cost $200, but maybe they do.

And we ended up spending $250,

because we just went all out with activities.

So we have a budget, we've created a table.

Well, the integration with the Office Suite,

with OneNote, is pretty amazing in that I've created a table

just like we do normally within Word or PowerPoint.

But what's really neat, is now that we have this table created

right up here at the top under Table Tools.

So Table Tools appears once you create a brand new table.

You have the ability to convert this table to an Excel spreadsheet.

So we've typed in all these details,

maybe I wanna run some diagnostics on my budget for my party.

I can easily convert this to an Excel spreadsheet just by clicking

on Convert to Excel Spreadsheet.

So in just a second that will convert to an Excel spreadsheet.

So it's converting right now.

And we can see, back on the OneNote page,

that it has taken all those details that I inserted into the table and

put it into an Excel spreadsheet.

What's really neat as well,

is that we can go in and edit this Excel spreadsheet as well.

So if I just click on Edit it will actually open up

a brand new Excel spreadsheet with all those details in there.

Now, I wanna show you something that's really neat as well,

is the fact that, let's create a pivot chart based on these details.

We can do that simply by highlighting all those details and

clicking on Insert.

And then clicking on Recommended Charts.

I'm just gonna create a very simple pivot chart just to show

examples on what we budgeted for each of these items and

then what was actually spent.

So that first one is just fine for me in this case.

And I'm gonna click OK.

You'll see you'll add a chart right next to our table, and then

if I click Save, it will save that item back to our OneNote Notebook.

Now, the real power comes from,

as soon as this updates and includes the chart right next to it,

the real power comes from your ability to select, sorry about that.

Your ability to select what is actually shown.

So, in this case it's throwing up some errors, but

it'll actually show.

So there it is, it finally came in.

So we have our Budget here, on the left hand side, so

we can see actual numbers, but we also have a chart to the right.

Well the real benefit from this is we can actually select what is shown

within our OneNote Notebook.

So in this case, we want to see just that chart.

We don't wanna see the details behind it.

We just wanna see the really colorful chart that's

available for us.

In that case, what you can do is, you can right click on that Excel

spreadsheet, and then click on Select What to Display.

So if I click on Select What To Display,

right now the default is Display Everything.

I'm gonna deselect that and then select only the Chart 1, so

that item within that Excel spreadsheet.

Click on Chart 1 and then click OK.

The view will update and

then all you will see down here will be that chart.

So now, you don't see all the details behind there,

all you see is the really nice chart.

So as we're going along later on,

maybe next year when we're planning the next birthday party,

we can look back at what we budgeted and what we spent actually.

And so then we can make adjustments needed for our family.

So, that's just one of the great integrations of the Office Suite

with OneNote.

But the other great one is PowerPoint.

So, when you insert a PowerPoint into OneNote,

you have the great ability to annotate directly onto slides.

So, in this example, I'm going to go down and

let's talk about inserting any PowerPoint that you would show.

Maybe we're gonna show a slideshow from the years growing up.

So we're gonna have pictures of the person whose birthday it is.

And they're gonna be shown throughout the party,

we're gonna have a slide show going at all times.

In that case, we want to create a brand new PowerPoint and

have it living within this OneNote,

because this is our single location for all of our storage.

In that case, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna click on Insert and

then I'm gonna click on File Attachment.

So again, one of the main great things about OneNote is the fact

that I'm just gonna insert a OneNote basics PowerPoint that we've created

just to show you as an example, on the amazing functionality

that's available to you with PowerPoint within OneNote.

So I'm just gonna select that PowerPoint and click on Insert.

And initially, I am just going to attach the file and show you how you

can actually display, just like we did with Excel, as well.

So, I'm gonna click on Attach file.

It's gonna include that PowerPoint.

So, you can see it right there, it's available.

Now, if I want to see that entire PowerPoint printed out,

each page, I can right click on that PowerPoint file and

then select Insert as Printout.

So if I were to click on Insert as Printout, I will click OK,

because I know this item is safe because I've added it previously.

And what it's going to do is it's going to insert each of those items

as a printout.

So, if I scroll up, there we go,

we now have that PowerPoint embedded within our OneNote Notebook.

Now, what's really nice and

really neat about OneNote is the search functionality.

So, we've got our PowerPoint presentation in here.

We can actually search each of those images within that PowerPoint.

So in this case, let's say we search for OneNote.

Up in the upper right hand corner, we have the ability to search.

Not only do we have the ability to search this notebook,

we can search all notebooks at one time.

So, in this case I've set my search default to be this notebook.

You can change that at any time by selecting on This Notebook.

You can change it and then you can select All Notebooks.

And if you wanted to set that as your default,

you can then go down and Set This Scope as your Default.

But right now, I just wanna search this notebook.

And what I'm gonna search for is OneNote.

You can see, as I start to type out OneNote, it highlights that image.

So every item that is included within my OneNote Notebook,

it will not only search text it will search within images as well.

So if I were to take a picture of a poster that had OneNote in it,

it would actually highlight that word, OneNote, within that image.

So again, the search functionality within OneNote is amazing and

definitely take full use of it as well.

Not only do we have the ability to search, though,

by including our PowerPoint, this is a great way to go through and

edit a PowerPoint as well.

So we're going from a personal aspect to maybe using this for

business purposes.

But we've included a PowerPoint into our OneNote.

We can over to the Draw tab within OneNote, we can select a pen,

so I'm gonna select the red pen because,

of course, red means bad and needs to be changed.

So I'm gonna select the red, and

we can draw with touch directly onto our OneNote Notebook.

So in this case, maybe OneNote Basics needs to be a larger size.

We need to move this WorkSmart@Microsoft item down to

the bottom right hand corner.

So we can go through and annotate directly onto this OneNote notebook

and identify items that need to be changed.

So this is a great collaborative tool, and in just a second we'll

talk about how we can share, how with others to collaborate.

But this is a great way for me to go through and

check out this PowerPoint, make my changes, and then submit this to

somebody else later on for them to go through and make those changes.

So again, really neat ability to be able to draw directly onto your

OneNote Notebook.

Now, just like having a notebook, think about when we were back in

school, having all those sections and stuff like that,

we had the ability again, to draw anywhere within our notebook.

Same thing goes with the ability to add text and

draw ourselves within this notebook, within OneNote.

Think of OneNote as a virtual notebook.

So the old notebooks that we had, the spiral bound notebooks we had,

this is the same thing except for it's in digital form.

In that case, we had the ability.

So if I were to just select Type, I can type anywhere on the page.

I can type here, over here, and down here.

So you can see, I can type anywhere on the screen.

Well that's because it creates brand new text boxes

everywhere I select and create brand new ones.

With those text boxes I can actually move those around as well.

So I can click each one of these text boxes,

I can pull them up and around.

Now, as you start adding content into your OneNote Notebook,

the real issue you'll run into is, lack of space.

So let's say at any one point, let's say I start drawing a little bit,

too, maybe I draw in Hello.

So we start drawing in some additional items.

Well, now if I wanted to add something in between,

I can type here and over here, maybe something right in between.

Well there's not a lot of real estate there for

me, and I could move each thing individually, but

then they would lose their aspect with each other.

And I don't want to do that,

maybe I've set this up to be exactly the way I want it to look.

In that case,

you always have the ability to insert some additional space.

So, on the Insert tab within OneNote,

make full use of Insert Space.

You can add space anywhere within your OneNote Notebook, and what it

will do is, it will maintain that aspect ratio with everything else.

So if I click on Insert Space, I can hover in between,

I can type here and over here, click and then drag down.

You can see, everything has maintained its distance with each

other down below, but I've added in some additional space up above.

So this is perfect for us to add items in later on.

You also saw how I was able to draw.

What's really neat about the ability to draw into our OneNote Notebook

is the ability to convert ink to text.

So you can see I've drawn in there, Hello.

If I were to, on the Draw tab, click on Ink to Text,

it will actually convert what I wrote into text.

So there you go, it's now into Hello and now its able to search.

But let me undo real quick and

let me again show you the amazing search functionality of OneNote.

I drew that in there, that does not look very good, right?

[LAUGH] But, if I search within my OneNote notebook for

hello, you can see it highlights my inking.

So everything that I write, if it recognizes it as a word,

it will highlight it for you and will make sure you search for it.

So I can search for hello even with my really horrible handwriting,

it will actually highlight that item for me.

So again, amazing search functionality with OneNote.

It can even read my horrible handwriting.

So great abilities available for you there.

Five things to watch for in the Trump budget - Duration: 6:55.

Five things to watch for in the Trump budget

BY NIV ELIS

All eyes will be on President Trump�s budget proposal on Tuesday when it is set for release.

Trump already made waves with the release of his budget outline in March, which called

for massive cuts in discretionary spending in favor of defense.

The full budget is in many ways a political document, and Congress may do away with much

of it as it works to fund the government.

Yet the document also lays out Trump�s agenda at a time when he is facing myriad controversies.

Here are five things to watch for.

How deep are the cuts and do they touch entitlements?

The March outline laid out $54 billion in cuts from nondefense discretionary spending,

slashing huge amounts from the State Department and EPA and eliminating funding for the National

Endowment for the Arts and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

The full budget will provide more of the specifics of these cuts and lay out Trump�s plans

for increasing spending on defense. It will also show whether Trump is sticking to his

plan or backtracking after criticism.

Nondefense discretionary spending only accounts for about 16 percent of the budget, while

cuts to Social Security and Medicare are much more effective ways to reduce deficits.

Trump promised during the campaign, however, that he would not touch those programs.

How will Trump pay for his tax cuts?

Trump is proposing tax reform that would slash corporate tax rates and business taxes.

The idea is to jump-start the economy, but the cuts will be projected to grow the deficit.

A big question, as a result, is how Trump will propose to pay for the cuts.

Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney has hinted that the budget will rely

on assumptions of healthy economic growth rates, which the administration thinks it

can achieve through tax cuts and deregulation.

More economic growth means more revenues and fewer expenditures on programs such as unemployment.

But economists are wary of a budget written with rose-colored glasses.

�Clearly, the economic projections are important, because they will be tempted to do a rosy

forecast,� said Alice Rivlin, an OMB director under former President Bill Clinton and a

scholar at the Brookings Institution. �Administrations� [forecasts] always are, but this one has said

that they�re very growth-oriented and assuming higher growth levels.�

Trump vowed the nation would achieve 4 percent growth in his presidency, but over the last

seven years the economy has only grown between 1.5 percent and 2.5 percent.

Even 3 percent annual growth could be a challenge with an aging population, and some economists

say growth of 1.5 percent to 2 percent is the new normal given today�s low unemployment

rate.

�To grow the economy by 3% annually, productivity growth, capital growth and prime-age labor

force participation would all need to return to the levels of the booming 1990s�an unlikely

scenario given recent trends,� the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB) said

in a recent paper.

Will there be tax reform details?

Trump�s proposed tax overhaul was big on promises but light on details.

The administration hasn�t said how much it thinks its tax cut plan would cost, though

the CRFB estimated the cost at $5.5 trillion over a decade.

It�s possible Trump will punt on some of the tough questions.

�There�s nothing that requires them to put a detailed tax reform proposal in,�

said Rivlin. �They may do the tax and spending side together, or they could just do the spending

side of the budget and do a global revenue estimate for the revenues.�

Still, even a simple placeholder indicating how much overall revenue the administration

expects to take in will offer some indication of the scope of its tax plans and lay out

a revenue goal for the first time.

How much does Trump want for the wall?

Democrats won a victory over Trump when they kept money for his wall along the Mexican

border out of a short-term funding bill in early May.

They argue the wall is a waste of money and that there are better, cheaper ways of securing

the border using technology.

It is estimated a wall along the border could cost between $21.6 billion and $70 billion,

a price that Republicans would have difficulty swallowing. Trump has put the cost at between

$4 billion and $10 billion.

Does it try to crash ObamaCare ?

There are two big healthcare questions that could be answered in the budget.

The first: What does the administration expect will happen with the American Health Care

Act, the House legislation to repeal and replace ObamaCare?

The House bill was estimated to cut $150 billion in spending, which Republicans hope to use

to offset the cost of tax reform.

But amendments added to the bill in the House are expected to make it more expensive, and

more changes are coming in the Senate. The Congressional Budget Office has yet to score

the House bill.

The budget will have to lay out some assumptions about the House bill�s cost. Will it assume

the House bill is passed as is in the Senate, something no one thinks will happen? Will

it assume some sort of compromise? Will its numbers differ from those of the Congressional

Budget Office?

Democrats will be watching to see if the budget includes funding for cost-sharing reductions,

a type of subsidy in ObamaCare that helps low-income people. Republicans have used the

subsidies as a leverage point against Democrats and promised to keep them as part of the 2017

spending package approved earlier in the month.

�At a minimum the president�s budget reflects administration policy at this point, so a

budget that shows spending on CSR payments continuing for the rest of fiscal year 2017

through fiscal years 2018 and 2019 would indicate that the administration�s policy is that

it will continue making payments,� said Edward Lorenzen, a health expert at the CRFB.

But even that isn�t a guarantee, he added.

�There is nothing to prohibit [the Department of Health and Human Services] from deciding

to stop payments in the future even if the budget assumes spending will continue,�

he said.

The Real Reason We Don't Hear About The Hanson Brothers Anymore - Duration: 5:16.

"Mmmbop" came out in 1997, but if you grew up in the '90s, it's never really gone away.

The dangerously catchy tune by the Tulsa-based pop trio of brothers Isaac, Taylor, and Zac

Hanson let the band hit the ground running when it was released as the hit leadoff single

from their four-times platinum-certified album Middle of Nowhere.

But despite their continued work in the music industry, their fame leveled off on the low

end after their major-label debut.

How do you follow an opening act like that?

Here's what the Hanson brothers have been doing since their unforgettable earworm first

launched them into the pop stratosphere.

Brewing up something different

It might seem like an unusual move for a boy band to break into the beer business, but

that's one of the highlights of Hanson's post-pop icon careers.

The band opened their small brewery in conjunction with friends in the industry in Tulsa in 2014,

producing Mmmhops, the beer of the Hanson Brothers Beer Company.

An American pale ale designed to please just about everybody, it has a drinkable, middle-of-the-road

charm that's often in short supply on hot summer days in Oklahoma.

For the last few years, the Hanson brothers have also combined their two passions into

one boozed-up rock-and-roll extravaganza, put on as a free show with hundreds of beers

on tap.

The Tulsa Hop Jam, as it's called, boasts featured bands such as Edward Sharpe and the

Magnetic Zeros, the Polyphonic Spree, and of course Hanson, playing to thousands on

the streets of downtown Tulsa.

The trio use their fame and products to help boost tourism of their home state of Oklahoma.

Making music on the low-key

Tulsa is also home to Isaac Hanson's 3CG Records music studio - an independent record label,

which has hosted such luminaries as Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips, Miley Cyrus, and

more.

The "3CG" stands for three-car-garage, a reference to the studio's original use.

Since starting 3CG Records in 2003, the brothers have recorded and released their third, fourth,

fifth and sixth albums through the label, with possibilities open to expand and sign

other artists as well.

Paying it forward

If there's anything you need to know about Hanson, it's that they love to give back to

their community.

In addition to their endeavors in music and beer, Taylor Hanson is also the mastermind

behind Food on the Move, a charitable program he started in 2014 that seeks to combat the

effects of food deserts.

He and the brothers have also worked on initiatives to collect and donate shoes to impoverished

areas in Africa.

These aren't one-offs, and they aren't just for publicity, or some sort of situation where

all the hard work is outsourced.

For these programs, the brothers have their boots on the ground, leading their events

in-person.

Tinted Windows

Taylor Hanson hasn't exactly hung up his axe completely in favor of charity and craft beer.

Far from it.

In addition to his family band, the singer-guitarist is also a member of the rock supergroup Tinted

Windows, alongside James Iha, of A Perfect Circle and the Smashing Pumpkins, Adam Schlesinger

of Fountains of Wayne, and drummer Bun E. Carlos of Cheap Trick.

The band kicked off their first show in Tulsa at the historic Cain's Ballroom, which sold

out quickly and drew audiences from around the world.

Signed to the label S-Curve, the group has only released one album, its 2009 self-titled

debut.

Little has been heard from them since their 2010 tour, but the stars may align again.

Nostalgia rocks

The Hanson brothers may have spent the last few years working on their brand, but 2017

will see the trio once again take the world on as an internationally-touring band.

After spending more than 20 years in the cycle of record, tour, repeat, a few years off have

left the band feeling renewed and eager to hit the road again.

Taylor Hanson said, "At the end of the last record we decided to quiet the cycle a little

bit.".

But now that the band has reached such a notable milestone in their 25th anniversary together,

they figure there's no better way to celebrate than with a trip around the world.

He said, "We want to celebrate being this far in, and having been able to share music

for this long."

The eldest brother Isaac added that the tour will be "not only about the two decades of

music, [but] about celebrating the incredible community of fans who have been with us, singing

along year after year."

Kicking off June 2017 in Germany, the shows will take the lifelong musicians to Australia,

across Europe, and back home to the USA.

They're also coming back with a second holiday album in 2017 to see if they can repeat their

original Christmas album's success, 20 years later.

The album, Wintry Mix, has been teased on social media with snippets of the recording

process showing the now grown-up band puzzling out how they want to play the old staples.

It'd take a Christmas miracle to move as many copies as Snowed In did two decades ago, but

fortunately for fans of that catchy, beloved album, the new music sounds better than ever.

So in short, why do you never hear from Hanson anymore?

It's because they're nose-to-the-grindstone busy.

Pick up an album, relax with a beer.

These three brothers started young, and they've got a long, long way to go before they're

done

English Does Not Equal ASL - Duration: 3:44.

Hi guys, Laura here. Now last week I did a

video on how you can't learn ASL from me.

Because ASL is different from English

and the reason why I put "ASL" in my

titles is because I want to

differentiate the signs that I'm

teaching you which are signs from the

ASL language from say BSL which is like

British sign language. So I know that a

lot of people come to my channel from

the UK and they they're confused because

they've learned it one way and then they

see it done on my channel a different

way so I do want to clarify that that's

why I put ASL in my titles. And I also

talked about how you need to learn ASL

from a Deaf person because who better to

learn ASL from?! And the other reason is

because it is a very complex language

that is not as simple as just learning

signs on your hands. You have to have

body gestures and sign positioning and

facial expressions and it's very very

involved it's not as simple as just

putting signs together. Now some of you

probably know this but some of you may not

ASL does not equal English so what I

mean by that is you cannot take ASL

signs and put them into an English

sentence because that would be "Signed

Exact English", which is not ASL. ASL is a

language on its own it has its own

grammar and syntax and sentence

structure I find a lot of the sentence

structure is similar to French language

and way way back in the day that's sort

of where ASL had its roots. So, please

don't assume that when you're learning

different signs from me that you can put

those signs into an English sentence and

be signing ASL. But I also think that

it's great that you're learning signs

and if you come across a Deaf person and

you sign those signs in an English

sentence format I'm

sure that they will be happy to help you

and appreciate that you're trying to

even converse with them

and I found nothing but really lovely

lovely people when I was learning how to

sign I signed ASL in English

sentence structure which is hard to

switch your brain and a lot of my Deaf

teachers and instructors and friends

helped me sort of switch that way of

thinking. So I just want you to

understand that when you come here you

can learn specific signs so if you're

confused about something or you want to

learn what the sign is for something

fantastic! But if you want to learn how

to use that sign in an ASL sentence then

you can visit some of the channels that

I recommended last week in the video

I'll put the same links in this

description as well. And if anybody else

has put other resources and other Deaf

channels that they'd like to watch I

will also include those in in the

description. So I just want to be clear

that I didn't want you guys to think

that you could learn specific individual

signs and put them into an English

sentence structure and think that it's ASL

As always guys please feel free to

ask me whatever questions you have I'm

happy to answer them. And be sure to

subscribe to my channel to be notified

when I post new videos. Thanks guys, and

have a great day, bye for now!

Future Takes 'Mask Off' to Next Level with Kendrick Remix - Duration: 1:37.

With little warning, Future dropped one of his biggest surprises of the year early on

Tuesday.

"Mask Off" is already one of his most successful singles, which sparked a viral

#MaskOffChallenge, peaked at number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, and landed a moody video

starring Amber Rose.

It's a fan favorite for sure, and now we've got Kendrick Lamar on the remix.

Earlier today, Future tweeted out a warning that a TDE-assisted remix for "Mask Off"

would be coming, but things progressed much faster than expected.

DJ Envy and the Breakfast Club previewed the song this morning, and soon thereafter, the

full version dropped.

Take a quick listen to Kendrick's verse, which comes in the second half of the song:

"How you let a conscious n**** go commercial while only making conscious albums.

How y'all let the braids on TV, how y'all let the hood at the table, now y'all don't

even know how to rate him."

the "Mask Off" remix is an interesting mashup between two artists who occupy opposite

ends of the hip-hop spectrum, but they managed to meet in the middle.

As Kendrick rapped for us, his style of conscious rap, on full display on his latest album 'DAMN',

has made him a mainstream star.

Future, on the other hand, continues his reign as Atlanta's syrup-soaked trap king with

his back-to-back number one albums in FUTURE and HNDRXX.

Neither artist necessarily crafts songs with a commercial bent in mind, but they're each

so rooted in their lanes that the hits organically sprout.

And although the "Mask Off" video didn't carry the song to number one on the Billboard

Hot 100, Kendrick Lamar's remix could potentially the trick -- do you guys agree?

Let us know in the comments below, and for more on Future and Kendrick's latest moves,

Sivayanama Astral Body Meditation by Dr. Pillai - Duration: 7:30.

There are many mantras; and I'm going to give you one.

The mantra is the reversal of the mantra "Namah Sivaya."

And where do you say that?

Not within the body.

You put your attention here, 12 inches above the Head, and then go around, circular: Sivayanama,

Sivayanama, Sivayanama.

Close your eyes and do: Sivayanama. And circulate your hand, your palm, in a clockwise direction.

[chants:] Sivayanama, Sivayanama, Sivayanama.

While you are doing that, visualize your Astral Body as an Aura around your physical body.

An Aura is a field of light around your physical body above the skin — the total body.

you visualize it.

And while you are moving the hand in a clockwise direction while saying the mantra, Sivayanama.

You say, Sivayanama.

And then hold on and then say: Sivayanama Visualize, Then you say: Sivayanama.

Go on doing like that.

Keep your eyes closed.

Just put your right palm on Top of the Head without touching the Head, roughly about 12

inches above the Head.

And then rotate your palm over the Head. [chants:] Sivayanama, Sivayanama, Sivayanama.

Visualize – visualize the Subtle Body.

The Subtle Body is the Aura around you, it's slightly bigger than you.

And now as you are doing this, this body goes into your physical body and merges with it,

with the physical body.

[chants:] Sivayanama, Sivayanama, Sivayanama Sivayanama, Sivayanama.

Now your physical body glows like your Astral Body.

And it picks up the intelligence of the Astral Body.

It doesn't, the physical body doesn't anymore limit your understanding, your knowledge.

The Astral Body being intelligence, it will not allow diseases to stay, ignorance to stay,

or anything that is not pleasant and enriching your life.

[chants:] Sivayanama, Sivayanama, Sivayanama, Sivayanama, SI VA YA NA MA.

Sivayanama will allow you to see beyond the visible, beyond the known.

So it's a mantra for not only activating your Astral Body, but also you can do a bunch

of other things.

So I was very keen that I should give it to you as a gift.

So keep doing it.

And just to remind you, it will also get you beyond your logical thinking.

It will also help you to remove the stumbling blocks, the mind blocks, for a mind to conceive

the inconceivable.

God Bless.
