US foreign policy : meddling, propaganda and (much) worse
Daniel Dumbrill in conversation with Max Blumenthal ... Hmm : planning for the well-being of all is 'totalitarian', while a billionaire elite rule is 'democracy' - hmmmmm. In China, the people are family. In the West, the people are merely livestock. Either truth is reality, or it is merely a cult-think. Bonus film - Eric Li on the keys to China's success ... Cuba ...

Hiking through the beautiful Tiger Leaping Gorge 虎跳峡
Tiger Leaping Gorge in YunNan province lies 60 kilometers north of LiJiang. It is part of the UNESCO 'Three Parallel Rivers of Yunnan' World Heritage Site. The road in (up) - an excerpt, with Shiraz Dole and friends ... Hiking with Tim and Glo ... The gorge in gorgeous 4K by Milosh Kitchovitch ... The site of the leaping rock close up, by Valpard ... The gorge is one of the world's deepest canyons and is populated by a few villages of the NaXi minority. Around 15 km in length, the gorge is located where the river passes between 5,600 meter high Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and the 5,400 meter high HaBa Snow Mountain in a series of rapids below steep 2000 meter cliffs. Legend says that in order to escape from a hunter, a tiger jumped across the river at its narrowest point (still 25 meters wide, though with a rock in the middle). There are a fair number of basic guesthouses for hikers, so your visit does not need to be rushed. These can also provide meals or snacks to passers by. The Hiking Trails. Hiking the entire length of the gorge is possible. There are two paths. The 'the high road' is well-maintained by the locals and marked, although sometimes narrow, and is used by the Naxi as part of everyday life. This trail is longer than the lower road, approximately 22 kilometers (14 miles), but more varied. It features a variety of micro-ecosystems and waterfalls, and is probably the best choice if you only take one of the paths. The 'low road' is a stretch of pavement (until recently a simple mule track) crossed by several waterfalls. This path more closely follows the Yangtze, so there are more views of the river and a stronger sense of being in a gorge. Where the high road descends to meet the lower road, one can climb down to the river near the Tiger Leaping Stone, the point at which the tiger is said to have leaped across in two bounds. Preparation That the gorge is outstandingly beautiful is coupled with the need for care. The environment is natural and so the almost absence of safety clutter puts the responsibility on the those visiting. Rockfalls are not unknown. Prepare for wet weather, which can arrive suddenly, and use suitable shoes. Take extra care when crossing wet rocks and in general don't take risks; think first. Don't go alone in case of accident. Take a mobile phone. Swimming and kayaking are extremely dangerous and must be avoided. Don't go off track; take a map (essential). Head back to your lodgings well before dusk as, being within a gorge, light fades quickly.

Xi’An 西安 Bites – Street Food 小吃 and Hot Pot 火锅
ShaanXi province. Street food, Xiǎo Chī (small eats), 火锅 in the Muslim Quarter ... From film-maker Kevin Cook : For Xi'an, the old Silk Road trade route opened the doors to the culinary influence of other cultures, particularly Muslim culture, which is especially evident in the Muslim Quarter in the center of the city. This massive outdoor marketplace of roads and alleyways contains some of the most tasty, unique and interesting street foods in all of China. Shaanxi Sandwich 牛肉夹馍 (Niúròu jiā mó) - 8 RMB The first street food that I eat in this video is Nui Rou Jia Mo (beef sandwhich). Due to its origins in the Shaanxi Province, it’s often called the “Shaanxi Sandwich.” Mutton soup with bread 泡馍 (Pào mó) - 38 RMB This one isn't so much a street food as it is a full meal in a bowl. Pao mua is mutton soup with bread, and it requires a little bit of work to prepare. It's one of the hardiest dishes you can eat in Xi’an, and it’s absolutely amazing. For 38 Yuan, it’s more expensive than most dishes you’ll find around here, but it’s worth it. Street Yoghurt 酸奶 (Suānnǎi) - 8 RMB Sua nai, which literally means “sour milk,” is a sweet yoghurt drink sold in little white cups, and it’s especially satisfying on a hot day like today. Beef jerky 牛肉干 (Niúròu gān) Price varies per kilo Niu roy gan, or dried beef, is another delicious street snack available in all parts of the Muslim market place. Unlike similar looking beef jerky in the west, the variety that I bought in Xi'an has a much more distinct meaty flavor than any other beef jerky I’ve ever eaten. Bread 楠 (Nán) - 5 RMB Hailing originally from the XinJiang Province is a hardy flat bread that's sold all over Xi’an. The Uyghur people who bake this bread call it 'nan,' but Han Chinese call it 'nang.' Skewered mutton 羊肉串 (Yángròu chuàn) 10 RMB/2 skewers Thanks to vendors like the one in this video, the tempting aroma of juicy grilled meat permeates the entire marketplace. This snack is dripping with fat and seasoned to perfection, making this a rich, hardy Xi'an street snack. Peanut Candy 花生糖 (Huāshēng táng) - 20 RMB/box A few varieties of this sweet snack are available, and each requires an interesting method of preparation, such as pounding the candy with a mallet and stretching it out over a hook. The process of making this delicious street treat is even more fun to watch than it is to eat. The beautiful Xi'An Expo park and Hot Pot, huǒ guō, 火锅 ... Bonus film - hand-pulled noodles From the Food Ranger, Trevor James : Hand pulled noodles are found everywhere in China. These hand pulled noodles were so delicious, simply some of the best Chinese food you can have in all of China. They are featured in LanZhou LaMian restaurants everywhere. Lanzhou LaMian AKA LanZhou hand pulled noodles are everywhere, and each restaurant has a very similar menu. These restaurants are usually very good for foreigners in China because they often have a huge picture menu all over the walls, so you can just point at what you think looks good. In this video, me and my local friend try two very amazing dishes : the DaPanJi, also known as the XinJiang big plate of beef, and then my other favorite noodle dish, the lamb and cumin on top of hand pulled noodles. These two dishes combined made a massive meal for two people. So if you're a foreigner living in China or if you're just traveling in China for a short time, visiting a LanZhou hand pulled noodles restaurant is a MUST!
Don’t get fooled again !  (message / music)
Please, wake up - and spread the word, before it is too late. War - bombs, death, unspeakable atrocities - depends on your acquiescence. If, there's another war, it's all over, for everyone; there will be no winners this time. War is burning flesh, skulls ruptured, and children screaming in pain, all dying in the name of supremacy. Fear those that desire supremacy. We can all see it coming. YOU need to stop this madness. Yes, YOU. The mad men can't do it without fooling you first. Don't be fooled again. If not immediately vaporized, one will be burned alive and shredded by flying glass and other debris. If still gasping for air, there follows 'nuclear winter' - no sunlight and starvation; a planet poisoned for many thousands of years. This is madness. Stop the madness. Life should be everywhere, in our galaxy, and beyond, but there's just silence. Need life always end that way ? Are we really going to end it all over skin color or some nonsense 'politics' ?? Even you 'hate China', do you love this world ??? Everything 'you know' is BS - just think about it - don't get hypnotized by 'democracy' and 'human rights' by those who crush them, everywhere, and really seek ultimate rule - it's the new branding for colonialism - don't be fooled - don't be fooled by distractions and words - open your eyes for a different view - we have a common humanity, deeper than any elite's spin - don't be fooled ... Don't be fooled again - the young deserve a chance to create a better world - say no, to divide and rule ... The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again ('meet the new war; same as the old wars' - great song) - please, don't blow up this world, don't blow down this life; it's all that we have; let's not go forever silent - no wipe-out ... awesome drumming ... Bonus films - drums by a young Sina ... The Surfaris - Wipe Out (with a cool dad) ... Pink Floyd - Time (featuring Sticky Hickey) - just wow - what a band ... Metallica - Nothing Else Matters - featuring the very talented young singer Jadyn Rylee (a beautiful love song) ... So close, no matter where we are. Nothing else matters. I can only say - don't get fooled again - don't be out of time. No more, hypnotized by lies. Don't get on your knees and pray; speak out; trust not what you believe - trust in who you are - our common humanity - don't get fooled - that's all that really matters ...
