All That Jazz-an interview with Chema Garcia Martinez

"My music is a fusion of many things. I love folk music and actually many different types of Jazz music. In fact I am not so sure that I like contemporary jazz that much.- Chema Garcia Martinez

(LONDON) - Last week ahead of my Ibiza Jazz Festival's concert  I had a short email  exchange with  Spanish writer Chema Garcia Martinez. We discussed topics to do with  Jazz, Culture,  USA, Palestine, Israel and  Jewish identity.

I guess that the followers of my writing and music may find it interesting.

Governor Schwarzenegger: Environmental Buzz Kill

California's Eco-Future: "Hasta la vista, baby!"

(LAGUNA BEACH, Calif.) - Our "no problemo" Governor’s most recent failure, lost in an avalanched multitudinous legion of many, is an admitted refusal to properly seat our Regional Water Quality Control Boards to their fullest compliment and potential.

It reveals how truly ecologically hypocritical and phony he was when sworn in and still is.

Rhetoric + Greed = Carnage inside DRC

The rhetoric heard by Washington does not match the actions, or lack of such to alleviate the suffering inside DRC.

(KINSHASA / PORTLAND) - The mass carnage committed in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is horrifying, in its longevity and atrociousness.

The lack of public United States (US) discourse and knowledge of the country is astonishing and disgraceful. We have the ability to connect with one another by computer hundreds of miles away, send men to the moon; yet we have not found the courage or tenacity to actively engage in protecting a country that is being ravaged daily by greed and bloodshed.

Marijuana Dispensary Critiques: This is Not a Dear John Letter

Despite all of the garbage, the Oregon Program is the best, most successful in the U.S.

(MOLALLA, Ore.) - I have known John for at least 10 years. He arranged many Medical Marijuana Clinics for me from Portland to Ashland, and our working relationship was excellent. However the running of the clinics was chaotic. All of them, his and others were the same.

The state regulations were so ambiguous that no one knew if any of us were doing what we should have been doing. The DHS (Department of Human Services) had no clue as to how to do it.

Death and Destruction: the Real Face of Western Value

Greedy Politicians, Profiteers, Cooperative greedy culture, world domination.

General Roméo Dallaire: Time to Set the Record Straight

What actually happened?

(SAN FRANCISCO) - General Roméo Dallaire was head of the U.N. peacekeeping force in Rwanda during the Rwanda Genocide where about 800,000 Rwandans were slaughtered, most of whom were members of the Tutsi ethnic group.

He set forth his experience in Shake Hands With the Devil, which largely supports Rwanda President Paul Kagame's distorted, self-serving version of the Genocide. Unfortunately, Dallaire became either an unknowing or willing shill for Kagame.

Mexico`s Arizona Moment

Despite the dangers, migrants say they will continue to travel to the U.S.

(LAS CRUCES, NM) - If Arizona’s SB 1070 law, underlined by the continuing deaths of migrants in the inhospitable, blazing desert of the Southwestern state, dramatizes the crisis of US immigration policy, then the mass murder of 72 Central and South American migrants last week showcases a similar and widening crisis in Mexico.

The 22 August San Fernando Massacre was widely condemned by human rights advocates as the horrific culmination of years of corruption and neglect on the part of Mexican immigration and law enforcement officials.
