► 6 December 2013 : You may feel like you're living in a science fiction film today -- things are moving quickly, and you may be excited to see new possibilities open up before your eyes. Enjoy the future! You might not believe that you have all the determination and ambition you need to make some major headway today, but you definitely do! Early in the morning, if you can devote some time to figuring out a few shortcuts, you will be able to free up valuable time in the afternoon to get more work done. Your brain will be sharper as the day goes on, so try to save complicated or detail-oriented work for the end of your day. In the morning, your mind will be creative but indecisive.
► 7 December 2013 : You have got to sit down and make plans today -- otherwise, you may find that things are too crazy to handle. Your energy is just right for at least one major distraction, but no more than that. You don't mind helping the other members of a group if they get stuck and need your assistance -- that's why you work well as part of a team. Your actions prove you are good at taking orders as well as carrying them out, plus you can also be a fantastic leader. But this is a good time to hang out in the background and learn from someone else's knowledge. It shouldn't take long to emerge as one of the team's strongest members, which could definitely lead to some excellent opportunities for you.

■ DAILY KOS 6 December 2013 : Ted Cruz posts Mandela tribute on Facebook. His fans go crazy.
Apartheid was a system of legal racial segregation applied in the Republic of South Africa from 1948 to 1993. Apartheid is derived from an African word that means "separate". But the seeds of apartheid has actually grown much before 1948 and continue to haunt South Africa before it was finally abolished. Under apartheid, discrimination against black people is not only acceptable, but also legalized by law. In such systems, the Whites have priority for housing, employment, education, and access to political power.
Although South Africa was heavily criticized, but apartheid just began to be abolished in 1991. This system really ended when Nelson Mandela was elected as the first black president of South Africa in 1994.
The first laws governing the system of apartheid was the Group Areas Act of 1950 which separated the space between the lives of citizens. White people living in urban and colored skin living in rural or suburban.
At that time, Whites and non-whites performed different jobs, live in different areas, and have different salaries, different access to education and health care.
When Blacks were forced out of urban areas, the area where they lived is called Bantustan or "African homeland." Because they were citizens of Bantustan, then the Blacks were not allowed to participate in government and forced to adhere to a curfew if they wanted to travel outside of their hometown.
Then came the one character named Nelson Mandela. He was a member of the African National Congress (African National Congress or ANC), a group that fought to abolish apartheid. Mandela joined the ANC just before World War II and pushed the organization into a national movement. ANC using non-violent resistance, strikes, and mass civil disobedience to fight for equal rights.
In 1952, Mandela was tried for participating in Defiance Campaign and was sentenced to probation.
Furthermore, Mandela spent his time in and out of prison throughout the 1950s and became a lawyer to help The Blacks.
In 1960, the ANC was officially banned. Mandela later became one of the founders of Umkhonto we Sizwe, an organization of civil rights violence, though his membership did not last long. In 1962, after touring overseas to talk about the situation in South Africa and received military training, Mandela was jailed for life and was not released until 1990.
When apartheid began to be eliminated, the ANC then reformed in 1991 to then choose Mandela as president of the organization. When the 1994 elections, Nelson Mandela was elected as president of South Africa and served until 1999. Previously, Mandela also won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993 in recognition of his efforts to end the apartheid in South Africa.

[CZ-summary of various sources]Additional note : I am thinking about how I have to say on this site manager about what I feel every time I am accessing it and then I move to another site with its white pages. It hurts my eyes. I wonder, why do they choose a very striking yellow for color pages which take a long time to read it until it's all understandable? Do they not like white color? As if they suggest that white is a painful color to be seen, whereas white is my favorite color.
► LIVESCIENCE
■ 5 December 2013 : Why Nelson Mandela Was So BelovedWith half-jokingly I asked this question on my partner. Then he became busy using his memory to explain everything related to Mandela. After listening to what he said, I just added, "Mandela does not have a devil's face!"
"Devil's face?"
"Yups. His smile looks good."
"What about my smile?" he asked with a grin. I looked at a few moments on his smiling face. Hmmm... not a devil's face, but it's not the face of Mandela as well. Mandela's face is the face of art, because he could always smiling even though he was in pain, pain due to the memory of past history, and also his physical pain. Meanwhile, my partner's face is just a simple man of a man. Red for Love (Everything related to the Red, among others, are: Sex. Hungry. Foods. Furious. Jealous. Competition. Smash. Shoot. Die. Tears. Goodbye.) & Blue for the Secret of Love. (One thing related to Blue is just: He, he,...hehehehe... and I.)
But then I myself correcting my theory about the face and its smile. Mandela is not a terrorist, his smile is nice. Someone can have a nice smile, but then someone could be classified as terrorist not because of the smile, but the action.
So, terrorists could also smile sweetly. The problem is, someone can have a demon face or not, but there is always a distinction between them.

A result of the corporate purchase of Congress is that many of the nation's "laws" have been re-configured to benefit WE THE CORPORATIONS, rather than WE THE PEOPLE. "Laws" like NAFTA and GATT resulted in the outsourcing of the U.S. manufacturing base and the destruction of the Middle Class. This is nothing less than the 1 Percenters abusing the 99 Percenters. Known as "monopoly capitalism," "crony capitalism," "mercantilism," "globalization," "the new world order," and/or "free trade" -- this is NOT your Grandfather's capitalism.

► EDUCATION : Inside the KGB: Terror of the Soviet Union | History Documentary. The Committee for State Security, more commonly known by its transliteration "KGB" (Russian: Комитет государственной безопасности (КГБ), Komitet gosudarstvennoy bezopasnosti (KGB)), was the main security agency for the Soviet Union from 1954 until its collapse in 1991. The committee was a direct successor of such preceding agencies as Cheka, NKGB, and MGB. It was the chief government agency of "union-republican jurisdiction", acting as internal security, intelligence, and secret police. Similar agencies were instated in each of the republics of the Soviet Union aside from the Russian SFSR and consisted of many ministries, state committees and state commissions.
The KGB also has been considered a military service and was governed by army laws and regulations, similar to the Soviet Army or MVD Internal Troops. While most of the KGB archives remain classified, two on-line documentary sources are available.[1][2] Its main functions were foreign intelligence, counterintelligence, operative-investigatory activities, guarding the State Border of the USSR, guarding the leadership of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the Soviet Government, organization and ensuring of government communications as well as fight against nationalism, dissent, and anti-Soviet activities.
After breaking away from the Republic of Georgia in the early 1990s with Russian help, the self-proclaimed Republic of South Ossetia established its own KGB (keeping this unreformed name)
