To all the Tea Baggers!

Shut the fuck up. Just for five fucking minutes.

We know you want to end taxation. We know you don’t care that every reputable economist on the fucking planet has tried to explain to you inbred sisterfuckers that austerity budgets and tax breaks for billionaires and transnational corporations makes joblessness worse, not better. It makes the recession worse, not better. It makes the deficit worse, not better.

But you don’t care what experts have to say, do you, knuckle-draggers, because all you care about is what makes you feel better. And what makes you feel better, apparently, is waddling up and down the street with powdered wigs and little flags and misspelled signs with pictures of the president wearing a turban, and you think that makes your opinion equal to those of educated experts who do research for a living. Don’t you get how utterly fucking stupid that makes you look?

We know you want to drill for oil in Yellowstone and downtown Detroit and fucking Disneyland and two miles down through the fucking Antarctic ice cap and on Mars and every dam place you can think of, until the entire solar system is a polluted piece of steaming shit just like fucking Texas.

We know you email each other ape jokes and watermelon jokes and other racist Ku Klux Klan fucking bullshit–just what, three years?– after screaming TREASON! at anyone who dared disagree with George W. Bush, and three years after deciding to tell everyone you’re not actually Republican because that would mean you voted for the moron who destroyed our economy.

Guess what? The 80 percent of us who think you’re a bunch of fucking retarded clowns are sick and tired of hearing about you. The 80 percent of us who think education is actually a good thing are tired of hearing you pontificate about shit you don’t know because you can barely spell your own names.

Like how you think the Internet is a bunch of fucking tubes.

How you think evolution isn’t real because the other monkeys haven’t evolved into people yet.

How you think we’ll still have roads and courtrooms and jails and people checking for e.coli in your WalMart burger meat without paying any taxes.

How you think it’s okay for you to accuse the president of being Muslim without any evidence—and then act like it’s a bad thing if he WAS a Muslim because you loathsome asswipes judge people by what group they belong to—not by their credentials as individuals.

How you hate Affirmative Action until it’s used to give preferential treatment to white students over students from Asia, or preferential treatment to the underachieving white children of the wealthiest donors. What a fucking bunch of racist hypocrites.

How you think lesbians have taken over the public university system—despite the fact that all the trustees and presidents and football coaches and most of the professors and most of the students and every evil fucker in any position of power happens to be in possession of a snow white penis.

How you think unions are the bullies with all the power and all the money while corporations are the victims with none of the power and none of the money, with no incentive to screw you because for some reason you’d rather pay them double, triple, quadruple for the same fucking services your taxes used to provide before they were used to pay for tax cuts to people who own yachts and jets. You dumb fucking idiots.

How you think some stupid bitch from Alaska actually knows any fucking thing about Russia just because Alaska is closer to Russia, than say, the Russian embassy in Washington Fucking D.C., you geopolitically-challenged shit-for-brained nine-year-olds! Meanwhile not a single one of you can say a single specific thing about any specific policy this stupid bitch has ever advocated. But you will of course scream at the top of your lungs that calling her bitch is sooooo wrong because Lord knows you’ve never called Hillary the c-word after wiping the beer foam off the ends of your snouts. What a bunch of misogynistic hypocrites.

Fuck you and your own personal fucking “news” channel, where you’re invited to spew your fucktarded bullshit with Bill "O" and Sean Hannity and the rest of the animal house twenty four hours every fucking merciless day. If they told you the only way to love America was to take a dump on on a downtown street corner, you’d be pushing each other out of the way to be first. Did you know they laugh at you behind your backs every two weeks when their seven-figure paychecks arrive, you stupid tools?

Liberal media, huh? One million Latinos march for immigration reform in Los Angeles, but on every donkeypissing television station across America all we see is a tribe of twenty assholes in plaid picketing on a street corner in Arizona because they flunked economics AND history in high school and don’t know the first thing about the Founding Fathers, the Constitution, the history of our court system, OR the history of the last eight goddamned years in this country we love more than you do. Yes, more than you do—because we care enough about it to protect everyone’s freedoms—not just our own. Everyone’s property, not just our own. Everyone’s tax money, not just our own.

What a smarmy drooling circus you fuckers are.

Shut the fuck up for five fucking minutes, just for once. A town hall meeting is not for screamers. No one wants to smell your Cheetos breath from across the room. No one wants to smell the sweat stains under your armpits as you flail, spraying spittle. A town hall meeting is for people to discuss things, not scream. Stop fucking playing the victim when the SEIU dares to use YOUR OWN dam town hall tactics against you. Just because most of the rest of us fear all you scary, hooded, screaming, violent bastards doesn’t mean we all have to just sit there and take it. Fuck you. We want you to go away, back to your basements, back to your generators and your canned peas and your mistranslated bibles and your pregnant daughters, waiting for the rapture while you leave the rest of us the fuck alone.

You lost the fucking presidential election, you bastards.

So go away!

Introduction: Brilliant Minds on the Next 50 Years - 16 November 2006 - New Scientist:

In coming decades will we: discover that we are not alone in the universe? Unravel the physiological basis for consciousness? Routinely have false memories implanted in our minds? Begin to evolve in new directions? And will physicists finally hit upon a universal theory of everything? In fact, if the revelations of the last 50 years are anything to go on - the internet and the human genome for example - we probably have not even thought up the exciting advances that lay ahead of us.

 COMMENT:

" ... This bill is bullshit from jump. (80+ / 0-)
Throughout our history, the government has given creators systems (Copyright Office, PTO) to register their claims to intellectual property. It is the responsibility of the creator to decide how to deal with people who abridge his or her claim. This is always done through the civil courts, almost always at the state level, with federal backup if needed.

Never has the federal government attempted direct, extra-legal enforcement of intellectual property claims, and for good reason: that's not its job.

I'm far from being a Tenther, but challenge to this bill, if enacted, falls squarely and sweetly under the Tenth Amendment, even more than the First.

This bill is pure crap, and I'll be the people introducing it know it, too.

If you knew Dr. W. E. Deming, raise Your Hand!

Quality Improvement Initiative at Canbide, by Patrick Darnell

Quality and Supply Chain Management Introduction

Many analysts claim the previous century’s Quality Gap between western and eastern producers is closed. Others claim the gap is re-opened and a sleeping giant, China, is going to leap-frog onto the scene. Developments could create a global attrition of manufacturing, food, and energy firms, with threats arising in unexpected areas. Many have already acknowledged the shift in industry models all over.
How did the eastern countries achieve High Quality in spite of ever-evolving global market demands? To answer quality strategy several implicit functions of industry and service remain profoundly important:

• Change is constant
• Quality is key
• Bottom-line is innermost

Task Objective

Explain the major philosophical principles that serve as the foundation for quality management.
Describe the primary strategies used for implementing quality approaches.
Use effective communication techniques.
Task Detail
“With the increasing prevalence of ISO 9000 programs, Canbide has initiated a corporate wide Excellence through Quality (EQ) program. Most of the plants and operational locations have already launched their EQ programs.” (CTUOnline; 2007, Task Detail

“As part of your research for the quality project for the Central Engineering and Research Department (CERG) at Canbide, you have identified W. Edwards Deming, Joseph M. Juran, and Philip Crosby as the three individuals who are most often associated with Quality Management philosophies. Using your Library resources, discuss which of the three you think has the best approach to quality management that would meet the needs of CERG.” (2007; ibid)

Future Questions about Quality to be asked:

• Do organizations need to have a value proposition, vision and mission statement?
• Should your product and/or service strive to obtain zero defects?
• How will Canbide define total quality management, TQM?
• Include a description of the impact of globalization on quality.
• Compare / contrast traditional management styles with quality focused management styles.
• Explain how TQM applies or should apply to Canbide organization.

Sources
“You will find ...selected books and articles which contribute to the new world view of systems thinking, continual improvement, and cooperation.” (CTU; 2007) The nucleus of the collection is material by Dr. Deming or Dr. Ackoff or about their ideas; retrieved from website like: management wisdom com.

In addition, this paper relies on other secondary sources from internet such as: web site for Department of Navy, Engineering web sites, and agency websites – Six Sigma, and others. For instance the General Accounting Office adopted a Total Quality Management approach for the organization after studying the successes of private industry. The IRS and DOD have embraced bottom-line versions of total quality management. DOL has much to say about TQM.

Discussion: W. Edward Deming, PhD 1900 – 1993 Statistician

My discussion starts and ends with Deming. Dr. W. E. Deming has made many clarifications over the years. Most of his statements have statistical support concerning Quality Gap: It is the “difference between the approved standards, criteria, or expectations in any process or activity and the real results in such process or activity in accordance with the adopted national and or international standards by any country.” (Maswady, Mazen A; Nov. 28, 2002)

Few people are ever given an opportunity to build their own idea into an empire. Dr. Deming was given that opportunity. When the war ended, it is doubtful Nippon could have built planes, trains or automobiles at all, good or bad. American bombs had reduced Japanese cities to ruins. Nippon port cities all were damaged. It ended badly for ports as 70 percent had been destroyed. Reconstruction forces found Industrial cities no less than 40 percent destroyed, most would be much worse. Not to mention the long term fall out and annihilation from atomic weapons.

Because Nippon had been built of mostly wood, Tokyo all but burned to the ground by American fire-starting air raids in March, 1945. Unparalleled in history, along with another well-known American quality guru-J.M. Juran, Deming went to Japan as part of the occupation forces of the allies after World War II. Deming taught a lot of Quality Improvement methods to the Japanese, including the usage of statistics and the PLAN, DO, STUDY, ACT cycle that represents the modified the SHEWART cycle.

Sources have reported over the years the Post WWII Japanese learned how to turn out quality from “Sarasohn, Protzman, Polkinghorn, Shewhart, Deming, Juran, Fiegenbaum, and others.” Many “would add their own quality wrinkles in Japan over the years, just as Philip Crosby would in the US starting in 1979.” (Crawford-Mason, Clare; Tuesday, April 23, 2002)

However, after reading about other bodies of work, W. E. Deming stands out as the leader in education and understanding with the most powerful Value Proposition.

Quality as Leading Indicator
The preceding innovators have not proposed the same definition for quality – “no two of those men - indeed, no two people we've talked to anywhere - agree precisely on how quality is defined” (April 23, 2002).

Dr. Deming had a learn’ed notion that earned no-nonsense eminence in early years. It starts with the “vision, goals, strategies and mission that must be fully thought through, agreed and shared in the business. What follows determines whether or not these are achieved. The building blocks of the mission are critical to success” in pursuit of Quality Management after the Second World War and much further beyond. (gov.uk; May 28, 2007)

With impressive use of statistics to prove his theory, he led many back to realization that continuous improvement is a satisfactory reason for living, working and playing. He extended to management that they are responsible for their workers’ production, and more importantly the quality of their production. It made him unpopular with management, but “he did prove a link between inconsistency – poor quality – and impaired management performance” (McLaughlin, G, PhD; n.d; prarphrased)

Management is the Key that Unlocks
How it all becomes so is in the probability for welfare, goals, and achievement of each worker, compared to failure, sickness and sabotage. The implicit relationship between management and worker will have defined outcome. If the relationship is bad, then there are “unwanted variables in production,” and unwanted outcomes in product. If the relationship is supportive, outcome is not given to impairments.

Managerial tactics had historically been causing injury and harm to worker-management relations. Health of industry in areas of function and output had lacked natural growth. Technology had grown, but lag times of considerable lengths thwarted using the new technology. Exit barriers existed by averted workforce. So much change-averse behavior had existed that management would expend its resources trying to get around, or through barriers, and seldom with the workers.

“New century innovation is challenging all business governance. To strike a delicate balance while putting into service high-tech change, business units collaborate as never before with accounting metrics. As in changes that are dramatic enough to make a difference, but not so dramatic as to be disruptive or unrealistic ‘pie-in-the-sky’ solutions,” accounting management is called on to partner up with operations, functional departments, enterprise acquisition, long-range product development, and business-driven solutions to improve process. (US Department of Labor, 2006; paraphrased)

Excellence through Quality: EQ
The following might very well be the vision statement for EQ at Canbide.
“The never-ending improvement cycle ensures that an organization learns from its results, standardizes what it does well in a documented system and improves operations and outputs from what it learns. This must be done in a planned, systematic and conscientious way to create a climate and culture of quality and excellence that permeates the whole organization.” (Dti gov UK; n.d)

Dr. Deming is best known for making management uncomfortable: “Drive out fear so that all may work effectively for the organization.” Managers often will rely on fear to force their desire or inclinations on workers. Despite its usual processes of making decisions, will Canbide be able to follow the many points of departure that follow a true Deming system-think organizational change? (McLaughlin, G, PhD; n.d, paraphrased)

Dr. Deming’s ideas let us manage “what we do not and cannot control.” Canbide will have conformed to the externalities and internal forcers as they arrive. Then we review and find the next source of those forcers we cannot control, and adjust our functional processes. “Our aim is to create wider awareness of the benefits and sense of urgency for its practice.”

It is imperative that Canbide remember the benchmarks of “Dr. W. Edwards Deming’s principles [that have supported] the global success of Toyota, Proctor & Gamble, Ritz Carlton, Harley-Davidson, and many other leading organizations. His teachings are essential for the effective application of Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing, Loyalty/ Net Promoter and other quality improvement, customer retention and business growth methods.” (Management wisdom aimofma; 2007)

Conclusion: Canbide should...
Canbide will revisit the knowledge base of Deming. All other implements of re-tooling Canbide are dependent on a total understanding by management as we define our organization “in the 21st century needs to be seen and understood as complex social systems in a rapidly changing world.”

As Canbide turns more attention to external forcers, importance of “suppliers and customers and their needs become apparent.” It turns out; Deming’s ideas... merging with those who have followed his logic and either made competitive analogies, or improved the science of, encourage a correct mindset of needing a structured focus in order to learn and apply.

What more could an altruistic Quality Guru desire than to provide a stellar basic scheme, focusing on disciplined thinking and producing? After all, “Science is built up with facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house.”(Poincaré; n.d)

Therefore, Canbide will have focused primarily on quality, as described in the ratio of “results of work efforts divided by Costs.” In the new thinking: when the focus is on costs quality declines: when the converse, quality increases over time. I think Canbide will have best increase in Quality if we start with Deming’s Body of Knowledge, and work toward other Gurus’ specialties as the opportunity arises.
