Joel Kaplan was the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy for U.S. President George W. Bush. The other Deputy Chief was Blake Gottesman, Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations. He took over policy planning from Karl Rove on April 19, 2006, as part of a staff shake-up by Josh Bolten, the White House Chief of Staff.

Prior to his appointment as a White House Deputy Chief of Staff, Kaplan had served as Deputy Director of the Office of Management And Budget (OMB) from August 2003, serving under Josh Bolten in his capacity as Director of the OMB. He had previously been a Special Assistant to the Chief of Staff from the start of the Bush administration up to that point.

Before 2001, Kaplan had worked as a policy advisor on George W. Bush's 2000 Presidential campaign. He had also clerked for Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, and Judge J. Michael Luttig. Kaplan is a graduate of Harvard University and Harvard Law School, and has served for four years in the United States Marine Corps. He was an active conservative Democrat during the early 1990s.

He is currently executive vice president of public policy and external affairs for Energy Future Holdings. On May 26, 2011, it was reported that Kaplan would be joining Facebook's Washington, DC office as vice president of U.S. public policy, effective June, 13, 2011.

Nationalist terrorists Ian and Nicky Davison from Burnopfield, County Durham, have been jailed for making pipe-bombs and nerve poisons. The father and son team were active in an extreme race-hate group called the Aryan Strike Force. Ian Davison worked as a milk-man's assistant while his unemployed son dreamed of joining the army. Not surprisingly, police psychologists described father Ian Davison as a "super wimp" with a "fragile ego" rather than anything resembling the Aryan "superman" of Fascist myth. The Aryan Strike Force filmed test explosions of pipe-bombs and ran paramilitary training exercises in Cumbria, worshipped Adolf Hitler and made no secret of their plans to murder Asians, blacks, Muslims and Jews. Ian and Nicky Davison set-up and ran the Aryan Strike Force website, recruiting 350 members and maintaining links with Serbian Nazis. The ASF chat-room was administered by veteran NF thug and EDL activist "Wigan Mike" Heaton, who (at the time of writing) is awaiting trial for using the ASF website to incite the murder of Jewish people. Videos of Mike Heaton's involvement in the EDL and examples of his friendships with BNP activists can be found on Mike Heaton's You Tube channel... www.youtube.com Details of Mike Heaton's links to the EDL and BNP can be found here... lancasteruaf.blogspot.com www.telegraph.co.uk news.bbc.co.uk TAGS: EDL Newcastle Dudley BNP British National Front Party NF ASF Aryan Strike Force English Defence League Matthew Kaplan Joel Titus Anti <b>...</b>

The idea of a teaching picture was central to Rudi's meditation work. He use to sit in his own store with pictures of his teachers, and you could tell that he would look at them all the time and draw energy from them. So he made a conscious effort to have pictures of himself for his students to use in their meditation. Barry Kaplan, a young student of Rudi's, was invited to come and take these photographs. There is an energy that radiates from Rudi and from these pictures that were taken almost 40 years ago. Narrated by Bruce Joel Rubin. www.rudimovie.org

For the past three years I have hosted a funny song swap at The New England Folk Festival. It is always fun for me to sit with clever songwriters and performers and do what we like to do in front of an audience. We were in the auditorium this time. The Big Room. (Notice the live concert sound.) Thanks to Sol Weber, Paul Kaplan and Steve Suffet for participating this year. Let's do it again in 2012! joel landy
