Shortly after my visit at (the herewith recommended) Postman Patel where I "stumbled upon" the link to my latest post I "stumbled upon" this.
Oh, well, reading carefully what I portioned into this evening's three posts you will surely find ...

Rather a Dandy than a pig
Well, Brummel, d'Orsay, Baudelaire, Barbey d'Aurevilly, Wilde and des Esseintes (the protagonist in Huysman's À Rebours) kept me busy for a while.
A work about Dandysm in the English and the French literature of the late 19th century.
Work? Rather a pleasure; except for those moments, minutes, hours a chosen word, a phrase, a metapher would not fit, or a smooth transition to the next aspect not be found. At times, no doubt, the master in the devil's kitchen would have demonically smiled about this polite blogger knowing so many wonderful swearwords. :)
By the way, although Dandysm is pronounced dead, when reading this or that detail I'd immediately think of this and that contemporary.
And now - with thanks to the Monty Pythons - for something completely different: Pigs.

A Fortune for Talking Blairney
What might, f.e. an engine-driver grossing about 2.100 Euro think when reading this?
500.000 pound plus an offer to give Tony Blair a 2,4 million-villa for "talking Blairney"?!
As one who would not envy a Ronaldinho or any other "star", because being offered such sums I should not deny, I do just ask:
Why would people pay such astronomic sums for ... almost nothing?
Why would - to give just another example - the German power company ENBW while announcing the necessity of rising energy prices, offer Al Gore 180.000 Dollars to appear in front of a handpicked audience?
Why would Al Gore demand: No photos during the event, no quotes, no articles?
Did he tell something different to his handpicked audience?
If not: why did ENBW-chairman Utz Claassen not charter a cinema for his "friends" / clientele? Would have been a tiny bit cheaper, wouldn't it?
Thus: Cui bono?
Who does get what advantage / profit when paying a fortune for ... almost nothing?
Apropos Al Gore: A well deserved laudation on (of? - ah these prepositions!) the "Peace"-Nobel Prize Winner and on the Nobel Prize Committee you will find here.
As for the rest:
Well, it's said the devil would always relieve himself on the biggest heap.

There is still hope
Ladies, gentlemen,
friends,
readers and leaders beyond authority,
what a marvellous week we had, Tetrapilotomos and I,
he brightened the earth, I polished the "Why" [sic: not the "sky"]
In other words: I did some research.
And the few hours Tetrapilotomos and I shared we spent watching an old spider
weaving its net and then waiting for its prey.
End of the beforegoing.
Such tiny questions, and what reactions. :)
Common-purpose-net,
gateway-303.energis.gsi.gov.uk,
gateway-202.energis.gsi.gov.uk;
to cut it short: Quite a few leaders beyond authority vistited my blog since October 29th.
As I know, my frequent readers and my friends will let dispense lenity;
therefore, some lines exclusively for leaders beyond authority:
It's not easy to make a living. You may have a family. Therefore I am happy you have found a job that fits your abilities. Last not least, undoubtedly you are just fulfilling your order
[which, by the way, most war-criminals would say when being accused of atrocities].
Indeed, my heart rose like a falcon up to the sky when noticing that one member of your team of leaders beyond authority would even check the label "Omnium". A real connoisseur. Chapeau!
I hope you enjoyed widening your horizon at the expense of British tax-payers, although I am sure with a little more organising ability at least one of you could have checked the books and within minutes sent me the answers, at least the one for question b.
Ah well, nobody is perfect.
Now you read my advice which is, of course, free of charge - as I wish to disburden your tax-payers - I am waiting with burning patience, though.
Yours sincerely . . .
And now - not to leave you lost - some facts for you, dear regular readers:
a) The leader beyond authority visiting via Common-purpose-net just stayed 1 min 56 secs.
b) afterwards I got visitors via the mentioned GSIs and some other enthusiasts; one (?) would even stay for more than nine hours [although I hope there was a shift changeover; it's not good for one's eyes to be online such long].
Why?
Now wouldn't I hide my light under a bushel, but this was amazing.
Such innocent tiny questions - which by the way occured while researching into something completely different - and such a traffic on my site?!
I mean, I did just ask [, didn't I?].
There is no reason to mistrust a charity - I repeat: a charity - with such a charming name, isn't there?
I have no doubt at all that a charity calling itself "Common Purpose" would intend nothing else but the best for humankind. In other words: I felt sure by doing a little research I should easily find reliable independent sources giving evidence of that all these leaders beyond authority are kind humans.
Unfortunately, up til now I could not find any reliable independant source telling something positive about Common Purpose.
Still, there is some hope.
The altruistic leaders beyond any authority are weaving their net in quite a few countries. And as when a boy I was lazy in learning vocabularies I do not speak as many languages as I should like being able to speak [today].
Therefore I asked some colleagues in various countries to find as much evidence as possible that Common Purpose is as charitable, humanitarian and philantropic as they are telling on their websites.
As soon as there is a positive feedback I shall let you know.
Meanwhile I can unfortunately recommend just websites where you would find nasty bloggers writing nasty things about Common Purpose.
To me it sounds like a conspiracy theory. But who am I to judge what is right, and what is wrong?
The best will be you take your time, read carefully and form your own opinion.

Well, and even the Devil in his kitchen has obviously "been aware of Common Purpose for some time and may well write about it at some stage". In the meantime, he offers to watch a video about "this rather sinister organisation".
Apropos "sinister": He did not use one of his favourite words which sounds like the name of a great German philosopher, and therefore I hope there is still hope.
Dum spiro spero.

Three questions just for common purpose
Isn't it strange what questions occur, when one is interested in everything, which is Omnium?
And do I need (to?) say that I should not ask following questions, if I were not convinced they are being asked for common purpose?
a) What has the Council of European Jaamat
in common with
the Criminal Records Bureau?
b) What common purpose let the the Criminal Records Bureau decide to award 32.000 pounds of its "challenge fund" to an organisation calling itself Common Purpose, and what was the quid pro pro?
c) What is the criminal record of Common Purpose?

Dark matter happens
:)
Seems I decided in favour of the title heading my latest post, because my (sub-) conscience felt/knew that I should not waste a title as to be found above now, in order to just satisfy my sometimes strange sense of humour.
Indeed, and seriously, dear readers:
Dark matter happens
As to be seen above: Turkish readers visiting my blog are obviously not supposed to see my "visible" support for freedom of speech in their country.
Would you call this democracy, Mr. Gül?
Or would you call censorship an act of "libertarian paternalism", ordered

Targets for common purpose
In certain situations it is wise not to react spontaneously but rather go to bed and listen to one’s pillow.
I am glad I did so yesterday night. I should have regretted my words.
And this is what my pillow told me.
[A new young dynamic female member of one of those wonderful think tanks abandoned to vice, sitting vis-à-vis Mr Cheney.]
Do you love bloodsport? [sneer]
I love it, sir.
The chase, the sport of kings,
Images of war without guilt. [Clintonian laughter]
[sneer] Any suggestions?
We need a solution for the growing army of homeless people, right?
Rather today than tomorrow.
Well what about following project? Let’s collect all the organic waste and transport it …
. . . invite our homeless fellow countrymen; on behalf of the political correctness (little sneer]
Yes, of course, Vice-president.
- and women … [sneer] ….
- and women … [Clintonian laughter] … er … where did we stop? Ah, best will be I do repeat: Let’s invite our homeless fellow countrymen and –women to settle in a reservation.
Okay. Where?
Montana?
No.
A reservation along the Mexican border?
Excellent. And then? Ah, didn’t we recently speak about that our boys and the Blackwater folks et al. do need exercise conditions in step with actual practise in order to get optimal prepared when going abroad to make this world a better place?
Sir?
Moving targets, and so. [sneer].
Gorgeous. [Clintonian laughter] I fear, though, … er … some do-gooders …
No problem, I let George Doublejooh deliver one of his touching speeches, spiced up with the usual stuff. Only this morning Laura and I had a chat with God about compassion, democracy, patriotism and love, and so on and so on. [sneer]
[Clintonian laughter] And God said: Sometimes you should not ask what the people could do for the state, but what the state could do for the people. In this moment Laura and I decided to initiate a patriot act for our wonderful homeless fellow countrymen. We ordered our National Guard to help those humble people to find a new homeland in …
Okay, okay. How many quick targets do we have?
One million lost their home only last year. And thanks to the housing crisis there might be another two millions this year.
Sounds good. And, anyway, there will always be fresh supply crossing the border to our National Security Homeland. [sneer] Any logistic problems?
No, Sir. It will, of course, be a no-go area. Those who survive a day will get some waste from hotels and super-markets. And fresh targets will be delivered on demand.
Okeydokey, and make sure that at minimum twelve weekends get reserved for special guests and members of the club. Especially the latter will be delighted about such new kind of safari. [sneer[. Err, better you do not mention the safaris. Just write 'for common purpose'.
Good job. See you tomorrow.
Good bye then, sir.
…
Ah, where to start?
9.000 will do?
[nodding]
Then I do suggest Orlando.
And up I woke. Glad that it had been just a dream. But what a horrible dream. And why? Orlando? Then I remembered what I had read a couple of minutes before I had gone to bed, and decided neither to listen to nor to watch any news nor to read any newspapers ... at least for one day.

A diamond of altruism
Third time not always is a charm.
I hardly can believe following headline, especially as I found it by exploring crime news: Arsenal tycoon Alisher Usmanov in diamond 'fraud' row.
Very puzzled by reading all these confusing news I asked my clostest friend for his opinion.
And thus spake Tetrapilotomos: Soon you will learn that the altruistic Mr Usmanov whose parents allegedly could not bring up a gangster and racketeer did all he did . . . just for common purpose.
