Know Your Commies

If socialism or communism are the only alternatives to FascismCount Me In!

Who we are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proletarian_revolution

What kinda' "socialist" R I ?

I have never known there were so many kinds of socialism, oh wait a minute maybe I did....but I didnt realize that they all had their own names. I think its something that there can be so many different idealism's and philosophies all lumped together under the umbrella of one word...oh wait a minute, yes there is religion, say Christian and how many different divisions and sects do you get? See what I mean? Our differences go on and on as we our own selves do, but meanwhile, however futile or impossible it may seem,.. we must continue in the struggle for a better world and working towards the good and betterment of mankind and the earth and the animals in it. 

Libertarian socialism (sometimes called social anarchism, and sometimes left libertarianism) is a group of political philosophies which promote a non-hierarchical, non-bureaucratic, stateless society without private property in the means of production. Libertarian socialism is opposed to all coercive forms of social organization, and promotes free association in place of government and opposes the alleged coercive social relations of capitalism, such as wage labor. The term libertarian socialism is used by some socialists to differentiate their philosophy from state socialism or as a synonym for socialist anarchism.

Adherents of libertarian socialism assert that a society based on freedom and equality can be achieved through abolishing authoritarian institutions which control certain means of production and subordinate the majority to an owning class or political and economic elite. Libertarian socialism also constitutes a tendency of thought that informs the identification, criticism and practical dismantling of illegitimate authority in all aspects of life.

Accordingly, libertarian socialists believe that "the exercise of power in any institutionalized form—whether economic, political, religious, or sexual—brutalizes both the wielder of power and the one over whom it is exercised." Libertarian socialists generally place their hopes in decentralized means of direct democracy such as libertarian municipalism, citizens' assemblies, trade unions and workers' councils.

Political philosophies commonly described as libertarian socialist include most varieties of anarchism (especially anarchist communism, anarchist collectivism, anarcho-syndicalism, mutualism and social ecology) as well as autonomism, and some versions of individualist anarchism. Some libertarian socialists, such as Noam Chomsky, are willing to use the powers of the state until it can be overthrown; he says: "There is no conflict. You should use whatever methods are available to you. There is no conflict between trying to overthrow the state and using the means that are provided in a partially democratic society, the means that have been developed through popular struggles over centuries."[15]

Israels Sacred Terrorism

The book Israel tried to supress; http://chss.montclair.edu/english/furr/essays/rokach.html

The Zionist Roots of the "War on Terror"

& Israel's Policy of "Covert Aggression"

by Henry Makow, Ph.D.

Nov. 17, 2002

Until recently I accepted Israel's self-image as a beleaguered, peace-loving nation in a sea of blood thirsty Arabs. The idea that this tiny state had imperialist designs seemed ludicrous.

But what if, unknown to most people, including Israelis, the world's power elite were using Israel to advance their New World Order?

What if Israel's role were to colonize the Middle East, and to become the seat of the World Religion?

Israel's Sacred Terrorism" (1980) by Livia Rokach, a 63-page on line monograph suggests that this bizarre scenario may not be so preposterous. http://abbc.com/historia/zionism/rokach.html

Rokach's monograph is based on revelations from the personal diary of Moshe Sharett, who was Israeli's first Foreign Minister from 1948-1956, and Prime Minister from 1954-1956.

According to this diary, which Israel tried to suppress, Israel's image of vulnerability was a ruse. Israel has always planned to become the dominant power in the region, and "invented dangers" in order to dupe its citizens and provoke wars.

In his diary, Sharett quotes a conversation with Army Chief of Staff Moshe Dayan in May 1955:

"We face no danger at all of an Arab advantage of force for the next 8-10 years...Reprisal actions which we couldn't carry out if we were tied to a security pact are our vital lymph...they make it possible for us to maintain a high level of tension in our population and in the army. Without these actions we would have ceased to be a combative people... "

Sharett concludes: "The state.... must see the sword as the main if not the only, instrument with which to keep its morale high and to retain its moral tension. Toward this end it may, no it MUST invent dangers, and to do this it must adopt the method of provocation and revenge.... And above all, let us hope for a new war with the Arab countries so that we may finally get rid of our troubles and acquire our space." (41, emphasis mine)

"COVERT AGGRESSION"

This policy of "reprisals" or "provocation and revenge" was also called "covert aggression." The U.S. "war on terror" is a continuation of it. Essentially it involves disguising a policy of aggression as retaliation for sham provocations.

For example, Israeli patrols would cross the border to attack Jordanians or Egyptians, and then claim the actions took place in Israel. Once attacked, the army pursued the "aggressors" into enemy territory and wreaked havoc. Ariel Sharon was the leader of a squad ("Unit 101") that specialized in these murderous forays. His 1953 raid on the Jordanian village of Kibiyah killed dozens of civilians. (30)

In March 1954, an Israeli bus travelling between Eilat and Beersheba was attacked and 10 passengers were killed. The UN armistice Commissioner, a Col. Henderson said, "from the testimonies of the survivors, it is not proved that all the murderers were Arabs." He attributed the attack to "terrorists intent on increasing the tensions in the area." (28) Thereupon the Israelis left the Armistice Commission in protest.

In June-July 1954 an Israeli terrorist squad blew up many British and American institutions in Cairo in an attempt to sour relations between the Arabs and the West. Dubbed the "Levon Affair," possibly this was a precursor to the attack on the World Trade Centre.

In June-July 1954 an Israeli terrorist squad blew up many British and American institutions in Cairo in an attempt to sour relations between the Arabs and the West. Dubbed the "Levon Affair," possibly this was a precursor to the attack on the World Trade Centre.

From the point of view of "covert aggression", if terrorism didn't exist, Israel would have to create it. Possibly, Israel's security establishment inspired some recent attacks on Israelis. In some instances, the terrorists are described as "white." Remember the sniper who killed 10 Israeli reservists at a checkpoint? If he were Arab, wouldn't he have struck again?

Most Arab terrorism is no doubt authentic. But I wouldn't be surprised if at critical junctures, Israel's "security establishment was behind it.

Israeli commentators lament that Israel is not a democracy. They say its security establishment has hijacked the country. One pundit remarked, "Israel is not a state with an army, but an army with an affiliated state." They also lament that a culture of corruption, brutality and immorality pervades the army. See Ran Ha-Cohen, "Israeli Elections. So What"

I believe the Illuminati controls Israel's security establishment.

WHO IS THE ILLUMINATI?

The world's wealthiest families have more in common with each other than they do with humanity. From their perspective, we are "useless eaters." In the guise of "globalism," they plan to increase and consolidate their wealth and power, and reduce everyone else's.

The heart of the Illuminati's power is the banking and oil cartels, (Rothschild, Rockefeller) but it includes many interlocking cartels like media, pharmaceuticals, defence, illegal drugs and prostitution. It operates through the world's intelligence agencies, and groups like the Council on Foreign relations, which grooms all US leaders.

Esoterically, the Illuminati is a secret society within another secret society, the Freemasons who are dedicated to sacrificing mankind to Lucifer.

All of this sounds fantastic because it is kept out of the media and education systems, which are mental caretakers in an invisible asylum.
Recently, Americans have been recruited to do the grunt work of subjugating Islam. This is not the first time the Illuminati has used the U.S. in this fashion. America was embroiled in World War One to free a million British soldiers to conquer Palestine for the Zionists. In the Second World War, the U.S. saved Communist Russia's bacon. Both Communism and Zionism are creations and instruments of the central bankers.

THE USES OF ANTI SEMITISM

The Illuminati has always used anti Semitism to trick Jews into advancing its nefarious goals.
In the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" the speaker confesses the illuminati has "wiped out every kind of rule except our own." Nevertheless it allows attacks on its plan for world domination in order to create anti Semitism. "Anti Semitism is indispensable to us for the management of our lesser brethren." (9-2)

From childhood Jews are taught that they are disliked for no rational reason and Israel is insurance against another holocaust. This attitude dehumanizes their opponents and obviates the need for genuine self-criticism. Often the question is not, is something true or false? Right or wrong? But, "Is it good for the Jews?"

Traumatizing people and convincing them that irrational fiends threaten their survival is an effective form of mind control. Such people will throw morality and reason to the wind and, if necessary, become savage, mindless killers themselves. They are easily exploited by forces that may not be Jewish at all, that may be anti Semitic, and plot their destruction.

Now the Illuminati is using the same tactic on Americans. The Mossad's fingerprints are all over 9-11. *Apparently, Israel's Zim Container Lines moved their 200-man office out of the WTC the week before and no Israelis died in the attack. Seven of the supposed Arab "hijackers" seem to be alive.

If Osama bin Laden didn't exist, the United States and Britain would have created him. Osama may be genuine but there is evidence that he has received money from the British MI-6 as recently as 1996. According to the French daily Le Figaro, Ben Laden met with the CIA station chief in Dubai in July 2001. He serves the purpose of those inciting a bogus "clash of civilizations."

In the domestic sphere, the persecution of Jews has become a cultural paradigm. Lately, women and gays are the Jews, taught they're oppressed by heterosexuality, and homosexuality is normal. . Millions of lives are being ruined. The Illuminati's hidden agenda is to destroy society's immune system (its ability to resist totalitarianism) by attacking its red blood cell, the nuclear family.

In conclusion, "covert aggression" is the primary means by which the Illuminati enacts its long-term plan. Americans have been incited to become oppressors by a phoney Muslim threat. Unaware of what's done in their name. Americans are now like Jews asking, "Why do they hate us?"

A Call for Conversion to Judaism in the Name of Peace

What if all the non-Jewish peace-loving people of the world Converted to Judaism?  They could have a permanent  home in Zionist Israel. I urge all peace loving people of the world to CONVERT to Judaism so they can "go home" to Israel and show the Zionist how to make peace.



The idea is for US to outnumber the haters & killers there, you know, the ones that make up the army and the govet. Say we decided to be consciencious objectors when it came time for our subscription. They would have to build so many more new jails! Mabye they would hire the Arabs to build them like they did in the early days. That worked out well for awhile, until the flood of immigrant Jews started objecting that all the jobs were going to the "foreigners" (mostly Arab migrant workers) which started the Labor wars.   According to Labor Zionist views, most Jews had been denied the opportunity (or NOT used too) engaging in productive / manual labor, and therefore their socioeconomic structure was fatally distorted. Although there were Jewish artisans, merchants, and farmers throughout the diaspora, Labor Zionism assumed there were too few to create an agricultural and craft base for a new Jewish society, therefore, Arabs were employed to work the fields.

I think we should all convert to Judiasm and migrate on over to our homeland to start  a NPO to encourage and assist these poor neighbor-state  immigants to Judiasm also. That way, there is no way Israel could turn them away. Is there a such a thing as a Judiac Missionary? If not, we will start one! If Zionist Israel wants jews we will convert them and send them to the Zionist State of Israel by the thousands, ....of course, like the rest of the ZioJews already living there,..they wont be REAL! I hesitate to call them Jews because they are not Jews, they are Zionists. They gave up Judiasm when they decided they wanted a state all their own.

Theodor Hertzel: Father of Zionism

The term "Zionism" was first introduced in 1893 by Nathan Birmbaum, but Theodor Hertzel, an Austrian Jew born to a prosperous, emancipated Budapest family, is recognized as the founder of the Zionist idealogy when he published his book in 1896, "The Jewish State", where he declared that the cure for anti-semitism was the establishment of a Jewish state. As he saw it, the best place to establish this state was in Palestine.




While Hertzel claimed that the establishment of a "Jewish" state would cure anti-Semitism, he also promoted anti-Semitism to further his cause.

The Balfor Declaration

The Balfour Declaration of 1917 (dated 2 November 1917) was a formal statement of policy by the British government stating that

"His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country."[1]

The declaration was made in a letter from Foreign Secretary Arthur James Balfour to Baron Rothschild (Walter Rothschild, 2nd Baron Rothschild), a leader of the British Jewish community, for transmission to the Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland, a Zionist organization. The letter reflected the position of the British Cabinet, as agreed upon in a meeting on 31 October 1917. It further stated that the declaration is a sign of "sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations."

The statement was issued through the efforts of Chaim Weizmann and Nahum Sokolow, the principal Zionist leaders based in London; as they had asked for the reconstitution of Palestine as “the” Jewish national home, the declaration fell short of Zionist expectations.[2]
The "Balfour Declaration" was later incorporated into the Sèvres peace treaty with Turkey and the Mandate for Palestine. The original document is kept at the British Library.

The anniversary of the declaration, 2 November, is widely commemorated in Israel and among Jews in the Jewish diaspora as Balfour Day. This day is also observed as a day of mourning in Arab countries still today.

Whilst the Balfour Declaration of 1917, following the expelling of the Ottoman (Turks) from the region, set up the principle for a national Homeland for the Jewish people, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balfour_Declaration_of_1917
nobody at that time could have foreseen the levels of persecution to occur in Post-Revolutionary Russia and National Socialist Germany during the 1930s. Palestine by international agreement would become a British Mandate in 1920 but by the 1930s the flow of Jewish immigrants was already giving cause for concern. An Arab revolt against the new arrivals required the commitment of Two British Divisions (One of which incidentally was commanded by a certain Bernard Law Montgomery) to maintain order, and in 1939 Great Britain was forced to place a limitation of the numbers of new Jewish immigrants and their land purchases.




At the end of the Second World War the flow of new immigrants (often illegal) became a flood as hundreds of thousands of displaced Jews from across Europe attempted to enter Palestine. The British government attempted to continue the pre-war quota limits (even going to the point of turning away boats crowded with new immigrants), however this only served to fuel Jewish violence against the Authorities.



In 1947, Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevan, UNDER PRESSURE FROM THE UNITED STATES (who clearly didn’t want all these people to suddenly descend on their own shore with their “Commie” ideas) and faced with open conflict with the settlers, was forced to rescind the immigration controls which had been set in place by the British. The UNITED NATIONS recommended that Palestine be partitioned (a recommendation that was rejected by the Arabs) and in 1948 Great Britain surrendered her Mandate.

Two Prayers



O Lord our Father, our young patriots, idols of our hearts, go forth to battle -- be Thou near them! With them -- in spirit -- we also go forth from the sweet peace of our beloved firesides to smite the foe. O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it -- for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.

The Fish Prayer; 
Dedicated to this fish; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fGOjZjM0xQ

O Lord our Father, Our brave Fishermen of all the waters in all the lands of this Glorious Nation, idols of our hearts, implore you with this humble prayer- please now hear them;

O Lord our God, help us to bring forth every living creature of the sea up out of the waters gasping for air, twisting and writhing in agony. Make large our catch and swell with every living thing our nets so that we may make a living from their capture, and to delight in as we watch them twist and turn helpless and in agony, torn from their watery homes into unbreathable air, gasping and mouthing their silent screams that we cannot (or will not) hear,….and not a tear will we shed as we watch them suffer and struggle to be free. Help Us to TRAP them Mighitily O Lord, in GREAT numbers weighed by the tons and not in mere pounds, so that we can make BIG our profits off of their sales, to be consumed by the greasy-fingered blood-sport lovers and flesh-eaters of the world. We beseech You to Allow this for us, as in your Great Wisdom have provided to us, to be removed up from their ocean homes and picked apart, tossed and sorted, boiled alive and in some cases eaten alive, for the sole purpose of enriching ourselves and satisfying the worlds unquenchable gluttonus thirst for the flesh and blood of every creature and living thing of the sea. Make plenty the waters with Your Living Bounty so the oceans will be full of fish and every manner of every water-living thing,….For this we Pray you, to make more easily and readily our daily kill, as You in Your Infinite Wisdom so Wisely Ordained.

Bible Talk

I came across this comment today on a a CBS blog where the discussion was the BP oil spill and all other manner of natural and man made disasters occurring around the world today....and, judging by the comments, there seems to be a general consensus among the believers that all of these negative events are nothing more than biblical prophecies coming true. While I have a tendency to agree with them that the end days are, in fact near (there is science to prove makind is on an un-sustainable track, and show that we are doomed to suffer catastrophic disaster for our reckless and exploitive ways,...and said not to occur in some "way off" future time, but right in the here and now)

I have always been a fan of great literature, and respect the bible for all the good messages to be found. There is much we can learn from the lessons taught within. I profess no special knowlege of the bible, or of any religious "holy book." I dont know a psalm from a song, nor could I name you the prophets who wrote the various chapters, but I have always had a love for great literature, and think the bible to be just that: a compilation of poetry, prose, song and other creative writings written down and passed around over time, and stolen, borrowed, plagurized and then bastardized (re-written, edited, changed) by the ruling parties of the time to suit their own interests, percieved needs or objectives. Still, I think it is a very good and important book, particularly from an anthropoligical POV.

Below is the comment that compelled me to write this post;

"...The sun is blocked out by the volcanoes - that's part! The waters of the Gulf and more are turned to blood (oil=lots of blood and more, but blood!). The land will perform the vomit-you-out program. You see that in the exploding Coal Mine, the exploding Oil Rig, the exploding Power Plant in CT in February -The "touchdown" Jesus YAY! God is turning walking, talking human rebels into human projectiles, YAY - that is the vomit program! See Leviticus 18 for those details!

As for you personally, if you have an ear to hear, REPENT - GET OUT! Spewing time, she cometh! ..."

Beautiful writin, aint it? And so "right on," it truely is freighting, but not enough to make a believer out of me! (Nostrodamis predicted the same things...and more.)

UNDIAGNOSED DISEASE, APPLE - USA: (MICHIGAN, NEW YORK)

******************************************************
A ProMED-mail post

ProMED-mail is a program of the
International Society for Infectious Diseases


Date: Sat 5 Jun 2010
Source: Chicago Tribune, Associated Press (AP)/Traverse City
Record-Eagle report [edited]



An unidentified blight is being blamed for the deaths of apple trees
in northern Michigan and researchers are working to determine what is
to blame. The disease has killed apple trees of 4 McIntosh varieties
grown from dwarf rootstock. Nikki Rothwell, Northwest Michigan
Horticultural Research Station, said the problem also is being
reported in western Michigan and in New York state. "We're seeing tons
of decline," she said.

"We have quite a few dying on us," said a grower in Williamsburg. The
disease has affected about 20 percent of his McIntosh crop, or about 3
percent of his total harvest. He worries that it might spread to other
trees. A grower in Northport said he has seen "scattered" attacks. He
said researchers took a chunk of one of his dead trees and are
investigating possible causes. "Some part of the orchard will have 7
or 8 trees in a row with it, and in other parts it's just one tree."
He said the disease is worrisome because McIntosh are popular regional
varieties.

Trees from dwarf rootstocks grow smaller, it's easier to harvest them
and the smaller size allows trees to be planted closer together.
Michigan and New York are among the top apple producing states.

[The problem above is reported to be associated with specific dwarfing
rootstocks used for specific apple varieties. This could imply one or
several graft transmissible disease agents such as viruses, viroids,
or phytoplasmas. More than 20 diseases of apple have been shown or are
suspected to be caused by a member of these groups of pathogens, but
molecular methods are needed for reliable diagnosis. Monitoring of
affected orchards would also be important since rate and patterns of
spread can provide clues as to the type of pathogen involved.

Price Put on Presidential Pooch Today




Presidential Financial Disclosures released today show the president as listing "Bo," the Portuguese Water Dog given to him by Ted Kennedy, valued at $1,600
While that might seem a bit high, the reality is that it is a modest price by "prized pedigree standards." "Well-Bred" champions and their off-spring command BIG BUCKs. $1,600 for a well-bred "pure-bred" dog ain't nothing. What bothers me, particularly about this "well-bred" pedigree dog is, that he really shouldnt be living there at all. Ya'll remember when talk first came out that the 1st family wanted to get a dog? Ya'll remember the vigorus campaign we all embarked on in bombarding ObombA and the White House with calls and emails and faxes asking him to please get a shelter dog? Ya'll remember when we told him that shelters all across this great country of ours are needlessly killing thousands of dogs everyday simply because there arent enough homes (and the breeders dont know when to quit.) We BEGGED him to adopt a shelter dog. Whad' happend? Thats what I wanna no.

Extending the String of Forgiveness Not for Naught

I came across this beautiful sentiment written by french equestrian / artist Jean Francois Pigion, and it reminded me of my own situation with feeling hurt or being hurt or feeling like I hurt someone else, so I decided to send it out to an estranged family member in hopes of some sort of reconciliation.

Though I havent recieved a reply yet, dont know if I ever will, but Jean-Francois is right. I feel better already for having taken the initiative upon myself to reach out and make the first gesture towards reconciliation,.... even if nothing ever does come of it....you cant say I didnt try, and I feel better already for having done it. The poision has left my vessel and my own healing can begin.

Class Project, 15 yrs Later, Results in Mystery Poem

Now here is a "mystery poem" and I shall tell you why. Many years ago, while attending some Creative Writing and Poetry classes at HVCC, our instructor, Mr. Joe Cardillo, gave us a writing project. He took a poem (I for the life of me can't recall which poem it was he used) but while standing in front of the class he tore the poem in many smallish pieces and put the pieces into a hat. He asked each of the students to draw 3 or 4 of the pieces of paper out of the hat which we all did. He then gave us an assigment which was to take the pieces of paper home with us and to make an original poem of our own, incorporating the words on the pieces of the ripped up poem that we drew from the hat.

Here is what I wrote with "my words" that night, and bought them into class the next day for review: I will embolden that portion of text that appeared on the pieces of paper I drew from the hat,;

The Poet of Death
Found me out..
and street sickness caused my demise
but do not mistake the matter
for even bronze seems alive
in the hands of
a Master Craftsman
Can you help me to find what poem the embolded words are from?
I thought it was a Whitman or a Blake but not sure and cant find anything that would indicate these words appear in any of their respective writings. That is why I call this my "mystery poem."

THE GNOSTIC SOCIETY LIBRARY

The Nag Hammadi Library

Gnosis Archive Gnostic Society

About the Nag Hammadi Library Section

The Nag Hammadi Library, a collection of thirteen ancient codices containing over fifty texts, was discovered in upper Egypt in 1945. This immensely important discovery includes a large number of primary Gnostic scriptures -- texts once thought to have been entirely destroyed during the early Christian struggle to define "orthodoxy" -- scriptures such as the Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Philip, and the Gospel of Truth.

The discovery and translation of the Nag Hammadi library, completed in the 1970's, has provided impetus to a major re-evaluation of early Christian history and the nature of Gnosticism. Readers unfamiliar with this history may wish to review the brief Introduction to Gnosticism and the Nag Hammadi Library provided here, as well as an excerpt from Elaine Pagels' excellent popular introduction to the Nag Hammadi texts, The Gnostic Gospels. (Visit the Bookstore to purchase the The Nag Hammadi Library and The Gnostic Gospels or to find information on other important introductory works that will help explain this material -- or click now to buy The Nag Hammadi Library.)

Stimulus money helping homeless in Rensselaer County

Posted: Dec 18, 2009 06:31 PM EST

Stimulus money helping homeless in Rensselaer County (12/18/09)

By TARYN FITSIK

TROY, N.Y. -- It's a staggering statistic: in just the past year, there has been a 10 percent increase in homelessness across the country.

However, one and a half million dollars in federal stimulus money has helped fund a new program in Rensselaer county.

Just one month ago, Linda Hemingway and her three grandchildren were evicted from their apartment.

Having been unemployed for more than a year, Hemingway couldn't make ends meet.

After exhausting what she thought were all her options, Hemingway learned about Rensselaer County's Emergency Community House Opportunities, known as ECHO, offering her a chance to get back on her feet.

"I learned about ECHO and I got a smile on my face, because wonderful things happened," says Hemingway. "I came home and told my children everything is going to be okay, and we are going to have a wonderful Christmas in a warm environment. We're not going to be separated, and that made me feel real good."

In order to be eligible for the ECHO project, a person or family must be homeless, have received an eviction notice or court papers, a utilities shut-off warning a final notice discontinuing heat, electricity, or hot water, have no other housing options, have a current income at or below 50 percent of the median income in the area, and the potential to maintain housing and utility payments when the ECHO assistance ends.

According to the Unity House in Troy, one of the partners in this program, people from all types of economic backgrounds make use of ECHO.

"We're really seeing people who in the past have not been homeless, and had not been needing social service assistance, but as a result of job losses or other external economic conditions, are finding themselves in desperate straits," says Karla Digirolamo, Unity House CEO.

Hemingway says the program was a life saver for her, one that kept her family together.

"It's very hard, but ECHO will come in and help you. They are good people down there, they are loving people," says Hemingway.

Rensselaer County's ECHO project began in October, and so far 110 households have been served.

Also, Albany, Schenectady, and Saratoga counties have access to similar funding, to be used as another option for people facing homelessness.

Christine A Jubic
Am wondering how many jobs this will create. I am all for helping the homeless and down-trodden as I have been there myself and fear it may happen again in the future as we are in BK right now and stand a good chance of losing our own home,....but giving $$ to help the victims of the lousy economy seems to me like putting the cart before the horse, or rather, treating the effects but not the cause. Fix the problems first (J-O-B-S & REAL ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY ) and there wont be any victims need fixxin. Duh.

This error occurs when your application indirectly calls a pure virtual member function in a context where a call to the function is not valid. In most cases, the compiler detects this and reports the error when building the application. But depending on how your code is written, sometimes the problem is detected only at run-time.

The error occurs when you indirectly call a pure virtual function within the context of a call to the constructor or destructor of an abstract base class. This is illustrated in the sample code below, along with some more description.

RESOLUTION

Calling a pure virtual function is a programming error, so you need to find the call to the pure virtual function and rewrite the code so it is not called.

One way to find a call to a pure virtual function is to replace the pure virtual function with an implementation that calls the Windows API function DebugBreak. When using the debugger, DebugBreak will cause a hard-coded breakpoint. When the code stops running at this breakpoint, you can view the callstack to see where the function was called.

Another way to find a call to a pure virtual function is to set a breakpoint on the _purecall function that is found in PureVirt.c. Breaking on this function has the advantage of keeping the stack intact so that you can trace what is occurring.

// The declaration below invokes class B's constructor, which
