Lie, deceive, make believe

My heart misses a beat when you look at me

Man in denial so trivial and banal

Pure Bliss Vocals

I will never hold you back

Remember all the sleepless nights

Out of the blue

Out of the blue

Out of the blue

To catch a cloud

I’m losing line of thoughts

I feel kind of lost

It’s been too long I can’t control

It’s been too long I can’t control

Covered with the shame

It’s been too long I can’t control

Covered with the shame

I’m not God

I can see through you

But I can’t move mountains

I’m not God

But I’m not God

But I’m not God

I’m not God

But I’m not God

But I’m not God

23 more Republican Senators (edit: now 19!) to go!

Senator Rand Paul recently endorsed Mitt Romney on the Sean Hannity Show on FOX. Does this make him a sell out? Or did he compromise politically to advance liberty?

Originally posted at FreedomWorks.org.

The Senate is expected to vote on four competing budget plans introduced by Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI), Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA), Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT), and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) today. Passing an annual budget for the federal government is a fundamental responsibility of Congress. Yet under Harry Reid’s leadership, the Senate has not passed a budget in over three years and no Democrats in the Senate have even offered a budget proposal this year.

All of these proposed budgets would be an improvement from the status quo but Rand Paul’s Platform to Revitalize America shines above the rest. It would repeal ObamaCare, reform the tax code, block grant Medicaid to the states, reform Social Security, and balance the federal budget in just five years without raising taxes.

Most Republicans pay a lot of lip service to cutting spending but their actions rarely live up to their limited government rhetoric. But true fiscal conservatives like Rand Paul actually walk their talk. His budget plan is the only one that will abolish entire departments. The Departments of Education, Energy, Commerce, and Housing and Urban Development would be axed under his plan. Poof! These needless bureaucracies would be gone. That’s what I call a real budget plan. This is the strongest budget plan in a generation and all senators serious about reducing the size and scope of government should stand behind Rand Paul’s budget.

The Rand Paul budget would slow up the regulatory state. The American people are forced to comply with thousands and thousands of outrageous new rules and regulations issued by the executive branch annually. The term “major rule” refers to any rule or regulation that has an annual economic impact of $100 million or more. Regulatory agencies issued 100 major rules in 2010 without any input from our elected representatives in Congress. Anyone who remembers the classic School House Rock! video that shows how a bill becomes a law can testify that unelected bureaucrats in the executive branch aren’t supposed to make the laws.

The executive branch has completely disregarded article 1, section 7 of the Constitution, which outlines the process of creating a new law and clearly gives that power to the legislative branch. Rand Paul’s budget would implement the REINS Act which requires congressional approval for all “major rules” proposed by the executive branch. The REINS Act wouldn’t be necessary if the Constitution was strictly followed in Washington, DC. Congressional representatives are the most accountable to the people and must be allowed to stop harmful regulations that will erode individual liberty and crush job growth.

Under the Paul plan, Americans would no longer fear sexual harassment at the airport since the plan would privatize the TSA. Rand Paul knows a little something about how incompetent and abusive the TSA can be. He was detained at the Nashville airport for hours and ended up missing his speech at the March for Life back in January. The TSA picked the wrong guy to mess with. Now the senator is pursuing his mission to abolish the TSA with a vengeance.

As the budget report card complied by Dean Clancy and Daniel Anderson shows, Rand Paul’s plan earns an A+. The plans introduced by Sens. Mike Lee and Toomey earn an A- and B+, respectively. All three plans would balance the federal budget and save trillions of dollars within the next decade. But as FreedomWorks noted in our key vote notice, we do have serious concerns about the health care reform proposal in the Lee Budget and the Medicare provisions in the Toomey and Lee budgets—proposals that trace their roots to the Heritage Foundation plan that provided the template for RomneyCare and ObamaCare.

Why haven’t more Republicans rallied behind Rand Paul’s plan? Only seven senators had the courage to vote for Rand Paul’s almost identical budget plan last year. Do most Republicans senators want to rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic? Simply nibbling around the edges of the budget won’t cut it.

Will the real conservative senators please stand up? The time has come to make your actions match your rhetoric.

New video is up.

Watch Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) teach Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner a thing or two about basic economics in the video below. Rand Paul explaining what F.A. Hayek called “the Pretense of Knowledge” is music to my ears. Geithner should take some notes.

Politicians typically break campaign promises more often than not. When an elected official instead chooses to keep their word, he or she deserves recognition for their consistency. With the rise of the Tea Party movement, many lawmakers are talking about cutting government spending. Few politicians, however, are willing to truly walk their talk. Some of those exceptions include new senators such as Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) and Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT).

Last week, Sen. Paul along with Senators Lee and DeMint released a plan that would balance the federal budget within five years. It would do so by eliminating entire departments and not increasing taxes by one cent. By the year 2016, we would have a $19 billion surplus. The Cato Institute has posted helpful charts to show the difference between Rand Paul and President Obama’s budget.

The plan has gained traction among true limited government types. Campaign for Liberty has listed some of the main highlights of the balanced budget proposal:

“SPENDING:

· Brings spending near historical average in very first year

– Reduces spending by nearly $4 trillion relative to the President’s budget

– Achieves a $19 billion surplus in FY2016

– Brings all non-military discretionary spending back to FY2008 levels

– Requires the process of entitlement reform, including Social Security and Medicare, with final implementation by FY2016

– Does not change Social Security or Medicare benefits

– Block-grants Medicaid, SCHIP, foods stamps, and child nutrition

· Provides the President’s request for war funding

– Reduces military spending 6 percent in FY2012

· Eliminates four departments:

– Department of Commerce (transfers certain programs)

– Department of Education (preserves Pell grants)

– Department of Housing and Urban Development

– Department of Energy (transfers nuclear research and weapons to Department of Defense)

· Repeals Obamacare

DEFICITS/DEBT:

· Never exceeds $12 trillion in debt held by public

· Creates $2.6 trillion less in deficit spending relative to the President’s Budget

REVENUE:

· Extends all the 2001 and 2003 tax relief

· Permanently patches the alternative minimum tax

· Repeals Obamacare taxes”

It is refreshing to see that Rand Paul’s balanced budget proposal cuts spending in all areas of government including the defense budget. Taxpayers lose if certain parts of the budget are isolated from serious scrutiny. The military budget has nearly doubled over the last ten years. It isn’t reasonable to believe that the Department of Defense (DOD) has spent every dime in the most efficient manner. We agree with Defense Secretary Robert Gates that “it is imperative for this department to eliminate wasteful, excessive and unneeded spending.”

We applaud Rand Paul for staying true to his word. In addition, Sen. Lee has proposed a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution to limit spending to 18 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and require that any effort to raise taxes would need a two-thirds majority vote in both chambers. As it currently stands, government spending consumes approximately 25 percent of our GDP.

These are both modest proposals to rein in federal spending. With our current national deficit at $1.7 trillion, it is radical to continue spending at unprecedented levels. It’s time to determine who is truly serious about cutting government spending. Call your senator and tell him or her to restrain the federal government by supporting Rand Paul and Mike Lee’s balanced budget proposals today.

Most of us are likely to remember where we were when a national tragedy happened. As for me, I’ll always remember where I was when I heard that ObamaCare had passed the House of Representatives and was headed for President Obama’s desk. On March 21, 2010, I was sitting in the back of a crammed pickup truck from Kentucky en route to my home state of Maryland. A group of us decided to drive over nine hours to spend our entire college spring break campaigning for a long-shot senate candidate by the name of Rand Paul. During our days of walking door to door in Louisville, we met many people who expressed outrage over the proposed government takeover of our health care system.

As we sat in the back of a pickup truck listening to the final hours of the House ObamaCare debate on C-SPAN radio, it was clear that Washington didn’t get it. They were ramming through an unpopular health care reform law without consulting the American people. I thought of the elderly Kentucky man I met who shook my hand after telling me that ObamaCare made him fear for the future of his grandkids and his beloved country. It was a somber long drive home as we felt helpless to big government. When Nancy Pelosi successfully passed the 2,801 page ObamaCare bill around midnight, I was reminded of the Star Wars quote “so this is how liberty dies with thunderous applause.”

Two days later, ObamaCare was signed into law against the will of the majority of Americans. At the FreedomWorks office, my phone rang off the hook with people asking what they could do to get involved. Some of them told me that they had never been involved in politics before but they wanted to let their voices be heard. They gave me immense hope that the fight still wasn’t over. A Rasmussen poll released that week showed that 55 percent of Americans favored repeal of ObamaCare.

It’s been a grueling battle. Government health care officials told us that we would soon embrace the new health care law. A year later, support for ObamaCare repeal hasn’t died down. The newest Rasmussen poll shows that 53 percent of likely voters still support ObamaCare repeal with 43 percent strongly favoring it. One of the continuous messages at Tea Party rallies across the nation is to stop the government takeover of health care.

Even in its early stages of implementation, ObamaCare has already done damage to our economy and way of life. Due to a provision that insurance companies must charge the same rates for healthy and costly sick children, nearly every major insurance company has ceased offering child-only policies. Employer penalties in the law have led some major companies such as 3M to stop offering health benefits to retirees and low-income workers unless they are granted an exemption by HHS. Since December, two federal district judges, in Virginia and Florida, have declared Obamacare’s individual mandate requiring all U.S. residents to purchase health insurance to be unconstitutional.

We cannot afford this unconstitutional power grab. The health care law will cost $2.6 trillion during its first 10 years of full implementation. Ultimately, it will create 159 new bureaucracies to control our health care.  By 2016, CBO predicts the average price of privately purchased insurance will be 27 to 30 percent higher for all Americans. Struggling American families will have to pay an average of $2,100 more for coverage. Even Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz who was originally a huge supporter of ObamaCare recently stated that “I think as the bill is currently written and if it was going to land in 2014 under the current guidelines, the pressure on small businesses, because of the mandate, is too great.”

On November 2nd, the American people’s voice was heard at the ballot box. A total of 35 Democrats who supported ObamaCare were defeated. This has increased the opposition to ObamaCare in the House by nearly 16 percent. While the fight may be far from over, we can get this unconstitutional government takeover repealed through hard work and determination. We won’t stop until the repeal bill lands on President Obama’s desk. It may be a year later but our voices are louder than ever. Let’s make sure that ObamaCare doesn’t get a second anniversary.

This blog post is based closely on the review I wrote for DJ Mag Australia, which can be found on its website, here.

The worldwide celebration of trance, A State Of Trance 650, rolled into Malaysia on Friday 15 March as part of the Future Music Asia 3-day festival. And with no sign of Armin van Buuren planning to bring his annual party back to Australia, there was a sizeable contingent of Aussies flying in to join in the fun for the second year running in Kuala Lumpur.

Arriving at the Jalat Bilal stadium for A State Of Trance 650 party, we were greeted by the familiar sight of security lines and ID checks but it was a pretty smooth and well-organised entry and we were soon inside the venue. The stage was set up in the large car parking area outside the stadium itself but it was such a large area that there was capacity for tens of thousands. A strange arrangement where you were not allowed to take alcoholic drinks into the front part of the arena seemed hard to fathom, especially given how poorly it was enforced.

The stage production and sound was as good as anywhere in the world and noticeably better than in many countries I have attended festivals in. The light show on the screen behind the DJs was a fantastic 3D affair and even before dusk the lasers were playing across the smoky haze that enveloped Kuala Lumpur from recent nearby bush fires.

After a couple of local DJs got things started, it was time for the Australian, MaRLo, to open up the official ASOT650MY proceedings. After MaRLo’s set there was a fifteen minute interlude for prayers – not something that I’ve come across at a festival before!

A change to the original running order saw Andrew Rayel up next and he delivered a set true to his style, mixing popular tunes such as Zedd – Clarity and One Replublic and Alesso – If I Lose Myself Tonight together with his remixes of classics like Cosmic Gate – Exploration Of Space and Faithless – Insomnia. When he dropped his own tune – How Do I Know?, he was joined on stage by the singer, Jano, to take the crowd’s applause. He also treated us to various recent hits like Armin van Buuren feat. Trevor Guthrie – This Is What It Feels Like, Dash Berlin feat. Emma Hewitt – Waiting and Above & Beyond feat. Richard Bedford – Sun & Moon. He finished with a flourish, dropping Alex M.O.R.P.H. – For The Love Of An Angel and handed over to Omnia.

Omnia took up where Andrew Rayel left off and was soon giving us an extended and re-worked version of Omnia & Ira – The Fusion and he had everyone jumping around to his own track – Infina (but did he play it twice?) as well as a double hit of Gareth Emery, dropping Arrival, from the Northern Lights album and Emery’s new tune, feat. Bo Bruce – U.

Now it was time for Markus Schulz to spin the tunes and give Kuala Lumpur a shot of his Coldharbour style. We were treated to tracks from his new Scream 2 album accompanied by favourites from Scream, like Nothing Without You (feat Ana Diaz), standards from his sets in the last year like Fisherman & Hawkins – Apache and back catalogue classics like Markus Schulz – The New World. He even dropped the old Fat Boy Slim hit, Praise You. This was not my favourite Schulz set of recent times, but he was undoubtedly playing well to the local crowd, who responded enthusiastically.

With the screens dazzling, the lasers playing across the night sky and the sound pulsating, there was an electric atmosphere as the evening drew towards its climax. At 10.45pm, Schulz handed over to the man himself, Armin van Buuren, who gave us a tour de force of trance from his newer tunes from the Intense album, like Forever Is Ours (feat. Emma Hewitt) and The Sound Of The Drums (feat. Laura Jansen) to the latest single, Ping Pong and updated classics like Tiësto – Adagio For Strings (James Dymond Rework), Binary Finary – 1998 (Jordan Suckley Remix) and his own Communication (Faruk Sabanci Remix).

As the clock moved to midnight, he took the microphone to get everyone to stop dancing for a moment and pray or pause in thought for the passengers and crew of the missing Malaysian Airlines flight MH370. It was a poignant moment before we got back to dancing.

He gave us flavour of Gareth Emery, mashing up Concrete Angel (feat. Christina Novelli) and U (feat. Bo Bruce – Bryan Kearney Remix) and then he ramped up the gears with the Shura Vlasov mashup of Simon Patterson – Brush Strokes and John O’Callaghan – Big Sky. He concluded the set with RAM feat. Susana – Ramelia and Armin van Buuren vs Photographer – Airport Shivers (Armin van Buuren mashup). There was just time for an encore and naturally he chose This Is What It Feels Like, mixing up two remixes – the John Ewbank Classical Remix and the W&W Remix. If you can’t beat them, join them, so I sang along …. ironically, of course!

After two magnificent hours from Armin, it was time for Paul van Dyk to take over and bring the night to a fitting conclusion. With a set full of his own productions, such as Time Of Our Lives, For An Angel and I Don’t Deserve You, PVD kept the tempo high and the crowd dancing to the very end.

This was a magnificent day’s music for trance fans local and international coming together on the day to celebrate as the Malaysian trance family. Undoubtedly Armin himself stole the show, but none of the other DJs let the side down and all played their part in making it a day to remember.

The news broke the following afternoon that six party goers had died as a result of overdosing on methamphetamine – the details are still somewhat sketchy as I write this – and as a consequence the following day’s Future Music Festival Day 3 was abruptly cancelled by the Kuala Lumpur police. Although everyone is undoubtedly shocked and saddened that this should have happened, I can only hope that it doesn’t overshadow a fantastic day enjoyed by so many thousands.

We arrived around 11.30 and the first thing that greeted us was a long line of people waiting to get in. As long as the queue moves quickly, this is a good sign as it means the club will be busy and sure enough, by the time we got in, it was heaving. But we knew where our friends would most likely be – in the spot we all seem to have chosen as the right place to be – and sure enough, despite the packed room, it wasn’t difficult tracking them down.

We heard Oceanlab – Satellite, Giuseppe Ottaviani with Betsie Larkin – Toys, Giuseppe Ottaviani – Angel, Aly & Fila with Giuseppe Ottaviani – Brilliant People, Motorcycle – As The Rush Comes, Giuseppe Ottaviani feat. Amba Shepherd – Lost For Words, Solarstone & Giuseppe Ottaviani – Falcons, Giuseppe Ottaviani & Ferry Corsten – Magenta. And as a real crowd-pleaser he dropped his remix of Armin van Buuren feat. Trevor Guthrie – This Is What It Feels Like. Those who know me will know that I’m not a huge fan of this tune – but this is undoubtedly the best remix of it. Following that was his remix (surely the definitive one) of Paul van Dyk feat. Plumb – I Don’t Deserve You and he just had time to close with Giuseppe Ottaviani – Love Will Bring It All Around.

It was another great night – there’s no doubt than when Voodoo pulls in the crowds, there’s a real buzz about Home nightclub. Let’s look forward to more nights like this in 2014.

Many thanks to Luke Davids Photography for the photos.

Hello everyone!!!

Here’s the latest Dj that I’ve discovered on Twitter in the last week, Peter Heir.

Also, don’t get discouraged if I don’t mention you. I’m trying to squeeze this into a busy schedule and I probably won’t be able to get to everyone.
