[ItsAllAboutMeMan] Re: New York Times stunner

 

Dear Anna,

It would be nice to kiss Obama's radical right agenda goodbye, wouldn't it?  But what the Republicans want is Obamaism without Obama, just like they wanted Saddamism without Saddam.

They got it then, will they get it now?  Who cares? I don't care if the neoliberals or the neocons destroy this country. Why do you pretend to care?  How much do they pay you to pretend there's a dime's worth of difference?

In conclusion, get lost, and I mean that in the nicest possible way.

Pitch in to help defend the right to vote and stop Republicans from stealing the 2014 election. 

Chip in $5

Dear MoveOn member,

This is stunning: The New York Times' data wizard Nate Silver—who predicted the 2012 election results state-by-state with uncanny accuracy—is now projecting that, "Republicans [are] close to even-money to win control of the [Senate] after next year's elections."1

It's the worst-case scenario: Republicans win a majority in the Senate, and we can kiss the rest of President Obama's agenda goodbye.

To make things worse, they have a plan to steal the 2014 election starting right now by making it harder for seniors, students, poor people, and African-Americans to vote.

Back in May, the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act. Since then, Republicans in key states have been racing to purge voter rolls, eliminate early voting, and require new photo IDs to vote—anything they can do to make it harder to vote. 

And in an election as close as this one will be, even 1-2 percentage points could turn the tide.

You think the fights over the budget, Obamacare, and immigration are bad now? Imagine Mitch McConnell in control of the U.S. Senate. Try getting any pro-choice judge confirmed for the Supreme Court against a GOP majority. Or stopping cuts to Social Security. Forget it.

The 2014 election is hugely important—and we can't let Republicans steal it now. So if you think you'll want to get involved sometime next year, I ask you: Please get engaged right now.  

We're raising $250,000 this week to launch a 'Let Us Vote' Campaign to fight back right now—while it can make the greatest difference. Will you help?


How blatant are the GOP's efforts? North Carolina just passed what's widely being called the most extreme voter suppression law in the country. It requires Voter ID, reduces early voting, and ends same-day registration.2 

Why there? Sen. Kay Hagan of North Carolina is just one of four Democrats up for re-election next year in a state won by Mitt Romney. If Republicans can reduce turnout in North Carolina and defeat her, it'll drastically improve their odds of taking the Senate. 

To reverse the effects of this effort, we have a 3-pronged plan of attack: 

1. We'll launch state-by-state campaigns to roll back discriminatory voter suppression laws, rules and regulations when state legislatures are back in session.

2. We'll prepare a traditional and online media blitz, highlighting both the actions of extreme politicians like North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory and the stories of heroic individual voters whose rights are being trampled.

3. We'll organize an aggressive counter-intimidation campaign to mobilize the very same voters who are being disenfranchised. This tactic was proven to work last election, when showing voters what Republicans are really up to actually motivated unlikely voters to overcome barriers to get to the polls.4

We helped beat back the GOP voter suppression machine in 2012—and we can do it again—but all of us need to help. And we can't afford to wait until next year. Are you in to support our "Let Us Vote" campaign?

Thanks for all you do.

Anna, Alex, Jessica, Nick, and the rest of the team

[ItsAllAboutMeMan] Re: Saying final goodbye, from tonia

 

Hi Tonia

Well, it is certainly wonderful news to hear that you have found true
love with Juan - it's a rare and beautiful thing. I want you to know
that I am very happy for you, and I have always loved you and wanted
the best for you, and though I was unable to help you, it wasn't for
lack of trying, I just wasn't able to make the necessary connections
here in Australia. I'll be home on the 25th.

In late September, I'm going to Brazil for a couple of weeks to record
an album. Perhaps I can stop over in Paraguay; do you know any places
there I can play some shows?

Thank you again Tonia, all the best to you.

Matt

[ItsAllAboutMeMan] Re: MoveOn under attack

 

Hey Anna


Oh, come on, who would do such a thing to MoveOn, so torpid and timid and middle of the road?  It might be some real progressives that are fed up with your support of Obama and his elitist rich bosses - in which case, i say good on em, they couldn't have picked a better target.  

have a nice day,

Matt

Unknown attackers just launched the biggest assault on MoveOn's site in our 15-year history, crippling our work for several hours. Chip in to help us fight back and keep MoveOn strong. 

MoveOn's site just weathered a massive online attack—the biggest in our 15 year history. We urgently need to beef up our defenses so we can keep elevating MoveOn members' campaigns that speak truth to power and be ready for the next one. Will you chip in $5 today to help make sure MoveOn is strong in the days and months ahead?

Chip in $5

Dear MoveOn member,

Anonymous attackers just tried to shut down MoveOn's site. 

Over the weekend, someone unleashed millions of artificial requests at our servers, preventing legitimate traffic from getting through, and temporarily shutting down our website. It's what's called a Denial of Service Attack, and this was the largest one we've ever faced. Over 15 years, through wars and heated elections, we've never seen anything like this.

It was the equivalent of someone firing a shot-gun through our window—clearly aimed to intimidate us and interrupt our work. Tens of of thousands of MoveOn members and other visitors were unable to organize on our site—sign petitions, plan events, run campaigns—for hours as our ace tech team raced to fight the attack and get the site back up. 

We're back up and running with new defense measure in place, but while this was the biggest attack we've faced, it won't be the last. We must quickly beef up our defenses so MoveOn members can keep running campaigns that speak truth to power without fear. 

Will you chip in $5 today to help make sure MoveOn is on and strong enough to withstand the next attack when it comes? 

Yes, I'll chip in to defend against anonymous attackers trying to shut MoveOn down.

While we were under attack, MoveOn staff couldn't access some of our most essential tech tools. Over 45,000 MoveOn members were unable to reach their petition signers and campaign data. Over 300 groups met this weekend to kick off a massive anti-fracking campaign—and all those groups were briefly locked out of our systems. 

Paralyzing MoveOn for a few hours was a big blow. Taking us out for a day would be a disaster. Our 8 million members are everywhere, fighting bravely to change this country, working on timely campaigns—they can't wait for the tools and back-up we provide. We need to be ready for the next attack—and we will be. 

With your support, we will: 

  • Recover the costs of the extra tech time we already put in to recover from this most recent attack
  • Acquire new tools that'll help us recover more quickly next time this happens
  • Continue to invest in best-in-class technology to power our campaigns 

Will you help us protect ourselves from future malicious attacks and continue to invest in powerful tools that are changing the country? 

Yes, I can chip in $5 to defend against anonymous attackers and keep vital campaigns going in the face of intimidation and sabotage.

Thanks for all you do. 

–Anna, Patrick, Alejandro, Jess, and the rest of the team

[ItsAllAboutMeMan] Re: A question about a prize

 

I too might be a bit long in the tooth for dubstep, but fortunately I have an excellent teacher in the genre who is within the age range of people who listen to and produce dubstep, and applying his principles (laid out here in this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HXe7BQtlmo), I came up with a production that was pleasing to Talenthouse associates.  


I still have not heard from Don Goliath, but I personally am not in a rush. I'm currently in Australia, where I had an appearance on Street Stars (http://streetstars.com.au/).  Pretty soon after I get home, I'll be turning around and going to Sao Paulo, Brazil for some performing and recording (hope I don't get caught up in any police sweeps of the protests there!) so I have plenty to keep me busy.

But though Talenthousers may have been happy with my dubstep, I won't be happy with it until Don Goliath is happy with it.

Hi Matt 

A pleasure to e-meet you. You should absolutely received your prizing for your effort. I will send a reminder to Derek, I am sure he has this in hand but I will prompt him. 

I must confess I am probably out of the age range of those that listen to Dubstep!!! But I will also ensure that Derek investigates the next steps for you to see if there's a further stage of work that needs to be completed 

Have a great day

Hi Jo,

I saw that you had written me a while back from Talenthouse, so I thought I might give you a try to see if you can take a hand in setting something right for me, or at least investigating the situation.

I previously asked Derek, who has always been really helpful and prompt, to look into this for me, but this time, I wonder if he might have let me down, since I've had no reply.

I then asked Danielle, who wrote to me about another matter, but she seemed friendly, and I thought she might be able to help, but as yet I have no reply from her either.

So here, is my situation; as you might know, I was thrilled to be the people's choice winner for this contest:
http://www.talenthouse.com/remix-for-don-goliath

I was all about the honor, but then i noticed that there are supposed to be actual prizes associated with this achievement:

People's Choice

    Digital release on Dubstep Division Recordings
    £40 voucher for the Loopmasters online shop

I waited a while, but didn't hear from Mr. Goliath, so I attempted to contact him through his website and ask him when the prizes will be awarded. So far I've heard no response from him.

Now, I don't know if he ever drops by your offices, or maybe you go out to clubs where he's djing or playing or whatever those dubstep guys do, but if you happen to see him any time soon, please let him know that while I can really use those products from his online shop, I'm most excited about the release on the Dubstep Division Recordings. i am also aware that however popular my conception of Dubstep might be with the public at large, I recognize that my mix was very rough, and might not be up to his professional standards. If you see him, will you let him know that I am willing to rework this material as many times as necessary to bring it up to the standards of his company?

Thank you very much,

Matt Love
Mr. Worldwide People's Choice Award Winner!
