Wapo: Venezuelan government launches far reaching crackdown--
evidently Trump's show off move has already failed.
Though Maduro was ousted, his repressive system was untouched.

Oil, US companies and Venezuela--AI--
AI Overview
Yes, major oil companies are looking at Venezuela, particularly after recent political shifts, with
Chevron already operating there and best-positioned to expand, while other giants like ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips left years ago but might return, though they'll be cautious due to high political and infrastructure risks despite the world's largest reserves. The U.S. government is encouraging investment, but companies await clear terms, stability, and better deals before committing massive capital to rebuild Venezuela's dilapidated oil sector.
Current Situation
Chevron: The only major U.S. player currently active in Venezuela under a special license, it's well-positioned to scale up operations if conditions improve.
ExxonMobil & ConocoPhillips: Both exited in 2007 after nationalization under Hugo Chavez and are unlikely to rush back, needing assurances and stable contracts.
What's Driving Interest?
Vast Reserves: Venezuela holds the world's largest proven oil reserves.
Political Transition: Recent political changes (the overthrow of Maduro) have opened possibilities for U.S. firms.
U.S. Government Push: The Trump administration is actively encouraging U.S. companies to invest in rebuilding Venezuela's infrastructure.
Challenges & Hesitations High Risk: The country's political and operating environment remains unstable, making it a high-risk investment area. Infrastructure Needs: Rebuilding Venezuela's oil sector requires billions in investment and years of work. Contractual Terms: Companies are waiting for favorable financial and contractual terms from the new government.
In Summary: While there's significant interest and a potential green light from the U.S., major oil companies aren't immediately flooding back; it's a cautious, long-term prospect focused on risk assessment and new agreements.

Former Trump loyalists like Steve Bannon and MTG are criticizing Trump's actions.
The Gift already Given (To the Congressman)--4th July 2025.
Needlepoint--by Kaung + anonymous who did the fine stitching on the L corner and the edge, and then did not complete it--whereupon I received the canvas base and lots of yarn, about 3 large bags-full--so I didn't need to buy many more colors. The canvas stretched on its own, so rather than blocking it (a technical term) I decided to let it be the shape it wanted to be.
Typically, it's not easy to meet other writers or artists--and this group survives bc the group leader
runs things so very well and is such a giving sort of person.
I've only met NC a couple of times over about 26 years--
and she has edited one of my short stories--but she gave me a book coupon when I was recovering from cancer (treatment) and she has sort of nurtured me for decades
so--Thank you.
In this country and this age--it's important to constantly reach out.
I don't know how I did it, but I was able to go up to a US Congressman and hand him a gift that I had spent months making (without knowing whom I would give it to), as well as a letter. (The Congressman also had cancer, and a grown son committed suicide, which was so tragic,but he's still working. )
I'm not normally good at networking, but I can write and I do live in a beautifull country and state and village--and it would all be so great if someone better, more humane, were at the helm.
That said, don't use FB or X--use Blue Sky,Substack and LnkedIn--
Read everything except Fox News.
And I hope the New Year 2026 is better for all of us--but it certainly is not starting well.
I miss my university days--which spanned--1960s-80s at Rangoon U
and then 13 years in Phila, and 10 years w Exile Gov.
Thank you Everyone.

NYT--Trump's Venezuelan action threatens MAGA Rift.Even SteveBannon said--
Mr. Trump and members of his administration have offered differing explanations of what would happen in Venezuela now that the United States has captured its leader, Nicolás Maduro, and brought him back to New York to face criminal charges. After Mr. Trump said that Americans would “run” the country, Secretary of State Marco Rubio tiptoed back from that position on the Sunday morning news shows, and noted that American troops were no longer on the ground there.
“The lack of framing of the message on a potential occupation has the base bewildered, if not angry,” Stephen K. Bannon, the pro-Trump podcaster, said in an interview. “While President Trump makes the case for hemispheric defense, Rubio confuses with talk of removing Hamas and Hezbollah.”
On his podcast, “War Room,” Mr. Bannon and some of his guests praised the way the military operation had been executed. But he also asked pointed questions, including whether it was “harkening back to our fiasco in Iraq under Bush.”
From AP--Hegseth censures Mark Kelly--
One issue, according to Huntley, is whether Kelly’s comments fall under the constitutional protections of the speech or debate clause.
https://www.aol.com/articles/hegseth-censures-sen-kelly-warning-150257307.html
The clause is intended to protect members of Congress from questioning about official legislative acts, and a 1968 Supreme Court decision wrote that the provision’s intent was “to prevent legislative intimidation by and accountability to the other branches of government.”
Huntley also said that while the type of process Hegseth is using here, known as a retirement grade determination, is fairly routine, “as far as I know, they’ve always been based on conduct during the individual’s active duty service, even if it only came to light after retirement.”
“So, I don’t know if conduct totally after retirement would fit the requirement for such a determination,” he added.
According to Hegseth, Kelly now has 30 days to submit a response to the proceedings that will decide if he is demoted. The decision will be made within 45 days, Hegseth’s post added.

Aging well if not gracefully--How to renovate a kitchen or bathroom in stages--hire a contractor early--is what I would do. Don't change
placement of existing appliances--or outlets. My state required new electric boxes. My handyman/box installer said one condo owner had to tear out a USD $ 100,000 major kitchen renovation bc of the box placement.Since I never renovated I only had to pay for new box and have the old box closed up.
Start with bathroom for aging in place.
My neighbor has since died and her husband has moved out,but 20 years ago they renovated bathroon and kitchen while still living in it--there is some inconvenience, dust, have to go to bathroom "upstairs" i e at swimming pool--which would be only in daytime--
One friend used a contractor and renovated her entire condo and stayed with a friend in the same building.
I would go stay in a nearby hotel--but it all depends on budget and your needs--(resale or for aging in place.)
My friend even included a Murphy bed for a full time attendant or attendants to sleep in--
BUT with socialized medicine like Canada, Australia or UK--maybe service is poor but free--Otherwise LongTerm Care in USA is very expensive--
So get a good job first--

AI--what's the difference between a resume and a CV.
AI Overview
Difference Between CV and Resume
A Resume is a short, tailored summary (1-2 pages) for general jobs, highlighting relevant skills and achievements, while a CV (Curriculum Vitae) is a lengthy, detailed academic document listing your entire educational and research history (publications, presentations, etc.) for academic, research, or medical roles, with the main differences being length, purpose, and content scope. Resumes are for industry/corporate jobs; CVs are for academia/research/fellowships.
Resume
Purpose: General industry, corporate, and non-academic jobs.
Length: Concise, typically 1-2 pages.
Content: A brief, targeted summary of relevant work experience, skills, and education, customized for each application.
Focus: Marketing your most pertinent qualifications for a specific role.
CV (Curriculum Vitae)
Purpose: Academic, scientific, medical fields, grants, fellowships, and graduate school.
Length: Detailed and extensive, can be many pages long.
Content: A comprehensive history including education, publications, presentations, research, affiliations, teaching, and more.
Focus: A complete record of your academic and professional life.
Key Takeaway
Use a resume for most jobs outside of academia; use a CV for university positions, research grants, or medical roles where a full academic history is required.

Bier on Immigration--
This weekend, Immigration and Customs Enforcement accused me — a policy scholar at the libertarian Cato Institute — of causing assaults on its agents. I’m just the latest in a long line of people — mayors, governors, members of Congress and more — whom ICE has blamed for a rise in violent confrontations with their deportation agents.
In fact, ICE is endangering its own agents. According to the Trump administration, ICE agents suffered about 90% fewer assaults under President Joe Biden than under President Donald Trump. Biden’s ICE better protected agents by adopting interior enforcement policies that reduced chaotic interactions with the public.
Trump’s Department of Homeland Security is doing the opposite, demanding agents conduct operations in ways they’ve rarely done before. According to my analysis of ICE records, ICE is arresting 1,100% more people on the streets — that is, outside of jails, prisons or police custody — than it did even in 2017 during the first Trump administration. Most of these people have no criminal records.

The character
Mrs. Malaprop was invented by Irish playwright Richard Brinsley Sheridan for his 1775 comedy, The Rivals, becoming famous for her comical misuse of words (a trait now known as a malapropism) and inspiring the term for such linguistic errors.
Key Details:
Playwright: Richard Brinsley Sheridan.
Play: The Rivals (1775).
Character Trait: She consistently uses words that sound similar to the correct ones but have different, often absurd, meanings (e.g., "as headstrong as an allegory on the banks of the Nile").
another e.g--the pineapple of success.
Origin of Name: Sheridan likely took her name from the French phrase mal à propos, meaning "inappropriate" or "poorly placed".
Legacy: Her linguistic blunders led to the word "malapropism" (or "malaprop") to describe this type of error, with the first recorded use by Lord Byron in 1814.

Jack Smith, the former justice department special counsel who led the aborted federal prosecution of Donald Trump, told a congressional committee that he never spoke to Joe Biden about his cases, according to the transcript of a deposition released on Wednesday.
In his behind-closed-doors testimony to the House judiciary committee earlier this month, Smith defended the charges he brought against Trump for allegedly possessing classified documents and attempting to overturn the 2020 election, while warning of the consequences of allowing election meddling to go unpunished.
“Theoretically, what happens if there is election interference and the people who are responsible for that are not held accountable?” Democratic congresswoman Pramila Jayapal asked.

“It becomes the new norm, and that becomes how we … conduct elections,” Smith replied, according to the transcript.
“And so the toll on our democracy, if you had to describe that, what would that be?” the congresswoman asked.
“Catastrophic,” Smith said.

Waking up at the Palace of Versailles: King Louis in the morning
At 8:15, the king's valet would awaken him, though we don't know how. Did he nudge him? Whisper in his ear? Shake the royal person by the shoulder?
What we do know is that the valet poured a drop of wine into the king's hands and a chamberlain entered with holy water, which the king used for a quick sign of the cross. He would then, propped up in bed, attend a mini-mass.
Once the Petit Lever (or Little Awakening) was over, the king would rise, put on his slippers and bathrobe, and prepare to be made presentable.
At 8:30, the royal physician and surgeon would give him a quick check-up. Important nobles, French royal family members and a few favourites would be allowed into his chamber while he was being readied — washed, combed and shaved.
And so would the Grand Lever, or principal awakening, begin.
The king would then sit on his "business chair" (yes, the toilet) and do his business while his barber combed his beard. The barber would also position the king's "casual" wig (he would change it later in the day to something heavier and more ceremonial — he did, after all, own about 1000 of them). By the way, attending the king during his "business" was a much-prized position for which nobles would vie. That said, I'm not quite sure what the "attending" part involved...
At this point, countless helpers of every stripe would be helping the king change from his nightshirt into his day clothes. Up to a hundred or so (male) spectators might be watching all this, including notables, guards, wardrobe officials and close royal servants.

From wiki--Poet Andrei Codrescu--
Codrescu published his first poems in Romanian under the pen name Andrei Steiu. In 1965 he and his mother, a photographer and printer, were able to leave Romania after Israel paid US$2,000 (or US$10,000, according to other sources[4]) to the Romanian communist regime for each of them.[5][6] After some time in Italy, they moved to the United States in 1966, and settled in Detroit, where he became a regular at John Sinclair's Artists and Writers' Workshop. A year later, he moved to New York, where he became part of the literary scene on the Lower East Side. There he met Allen Ginsberg, Ted Berrigan, and Anne Waldman, and published his first poems in English.
