  • North, Iran-Contra, and the Doomsday Project the Original
    The following is reproduced with permission of the author from its source at: http://japanfocus.org/-Peter_Dale-Scott/3491 Additional links and annotations provided by David Ratcliffe. North, Iran-Contra, and the Doomsday Project: The Original Congressional Cover Up of Continuity- of-Government Planning by Peter Dale Scott The Asia-Pacific Journal Vol 9, Issue 8 No 1 21 February 2011 If ever the constitutional democracy of the United States is overthrown, we now have a better idea of how this is likely to be done. That may be the most important contribution of the recent Iran-contra congressional hearings. —Theodore Draper, “The Rise of the American Junta,” New York Review of Books, October 8, 1987. In 1989 I published the following article, “Northwards without North: Bush, Counterterrorism, and the Continuation of Secret Power.” It is of interest today because of its description of how the Congressional Iran-Contra Committees, in their investigation of Iran-Contra, assembled documentation on what we now know as Continuity of Government (COG) planning, only to suppress or misrepresent this important information in their Report. I was concerned about the committees’ decision to sidestep the larger issues of secret powers and secret wars, little knowing that these secret COG powers, or “Doomsday Project,” would in fact be secretly implemented on September 11, 2011. (One of the two Committee Chairs was Lee Hamilton, later co-chair of the similarly evasive 9/11 Commission Report). Recently I have written about the extraordinary power of the COG network Doomsday planners, or what CNN in 1991 described as a “shadow government…about which you know nothing.”[1] Returning to my 1989 essay, I see the essential but complex overlap between this Doomsday Committee and the Iran-Contra secret “junta” or cabal described by Theodore Draper and Senator Paul Sarbanes within the Reagan-Bush administration.

Winter has arrived. Please keep that in mind when sending your child to school each day. If the temperature is one degree or above, studentsetter DO go outside for recess. Also, there are times when students are outside – waiting for the bus, going to and from the car before and after school to name a few. Boots, hats, gloves, snow pants and a winter coat are all priorities this time of year! We have recently passed the mid-point of the school year and I hope that to this point it has been a successful one for you and your child(ren). Students and staff have been working hard. Our assessments are complete and you should have received your child’s report card. If you have any questions – please feel free to reach out to your child’s teacher. Technology has changed the way that we all live our lives. Social networking (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), cell phones, instant messaging, and texting have allowed each of us to conveniently and instantaneously communicate. Cyber bullying has seen a rapid rise in school-aged children throughout the country, and unfortunately, seldom does a day go by without hearing these stories in the media. Although we do not allow this sort of communication here at school with students, we have seen students come to school upset about something that was posted from home.

  • Race for the Prize: the Proto-Selfie As Endurance Performance
    Race for the Prize: The Proto-Selfie as Endurance Performance Art Marc A. Tasman Abstract: In the paper “Race for the Prize: The Proto-Selfie as Endurance Performance Art,” the author characterizes a small group of artists (including himself) working on time-lapse, self-portrait photographic projects as competitive— in a race with distinct formal, aesthetic, and technical categories. Set on the cusp of the millennial change from 20th to 21st century, these self-portrait works suggested practices and modes of new digital materiality that helped to birth the phenomenon called “the Selfie.” In the few decades before this Web 2.0 debut, the self-portrait was already evolving with electronic media. Neo-avant-garde performance artists and post-modern photographers were making identity-fluid works, self-portraits that were highly performative, prefiguring the coming practices of self-representation in digital networks. An important link, a reference to the passage of time, reinforce a familiar theme in art history—memento-mori, which is a reminder to the viewer that our time alive is fleeting. In this way, along with other threads, including first-hand accounts by the quartet of time-lapse self-portrait artists, we can derive the context and continuity that connects antecedents to descendant selfie practices, ubiquitous in contemporary culture. 1. Introduction I am writing here ten years after the conclusion of the Ten Year Polaroid Project (Figure1), also known as Ten Years and One Day, twenty years after the start of my photo series. This is a project in which I photographed myself using a Polaroid camera and instant film for 3654 consecutive days, from 24 July 1999 through 24 July 2009.
