“In a review in the “New York Times” Book Review, Daniel Handler writes:
“And strange? Well, let's get this straight: All great books are strange.
Every lasting work of literature since the very weird "Beowulf" has been
strange, not only because it grapples with the strangeness around us, but
also because the effect of originality is startling, making even the oldest
books feel like brand new stories.”
Strange: Out-of-the-ordinary, unusual, curious. "The strangeness around
us," says Handler. There is a paradox here. What could be less strange than

Bananas, Natural Radiation, and other Nuke Cabal Ploys
In April 2011, the state of Arizona's radiological protection agent told
me
that radiation fallout from Fukushima is akin to the radiation in
*a*banana. He also drank some milk while he was talking to me. He
reminded me
of the Atomic Energy scientists who referred to all radiation in terms

Why in the world would Connecticut's top prosecutor , the Governor's office and select legislative leaders seek to secretly draft a new law to block the release of records related to the police investigation into the December 14 , 2012 incident at Newtown Elementary School only ? There allegedly are no additional perps , right ? So why the rush to " secretly draft a law " , why keep this from the public until Tuesday when the plan initially was apparently to sneak this to the Governor's desk right before the Holiday weekend ? Why the rush to cover up photos , death certificates , tapes of 911 calls and how is it that families decide what evidence is worthy of being subjects of public interest consistence with right to know law / FOI laws ? And of course the true tell , why just Sandy Hook and not ALL crimes generally ?

madrid, day two
Today was the second half of our Madrid art tour.
We were out early again, went back to the same local joint for breakfast
(the counterman remembered what we wanted, which we enjoy), and were once
again at the museum before it opened. This was Reina Sofia, the national
art centre and museum specializing in 19th and 20th century art, and home
to Picasso's "Guernica".
Finally seeing Guernica in person was, for me, a highlight of this trip and
one of the most moving art experiences I've had. I was quite overcome - in

HAS THE WEST’S WAR AGAINST ISLAM RADICALISED WESTERN MUSLIMS?
The so-called ‘war on terror’ is now seen for what it really is; a
euphemism for a war against Islam. It began as a war fuelled by Western
greed and power as European colonialists divided and conquered Islamic
lands in order to plunder their riches. The war about religion and beliefs
had long run its earlier course during the Crusades. By the nineteenth and
twentieth century it was no longer about religion; it was about oil. Today
it has come full circle; it’s still about oil, as well as regional control
and hegemony, but for those that resent the West’s intrusion into their

Defending the "indefensible": Anwar al-Awlaki
Today the U.S. government acknowledged killing Anwar al-Awlaki with a drone
strike. Was this killing "just," as Eric Holder says?
The U.S. says it was because not only was Awlaki *saying* bad things, but *
doing* them - actively participating in and planning a variety of terror
plots. If that were true, *and* proven, you would probably concede the
killing was justified, at least "morally" if not legally.

The "Malibu Effect" and Why Greed is Not Good for You

Inflation is crudely defined as too many dollars chasing too few products.
A good example of inflation: in 1960 $30,000 would buy you a mansion.
30,000 today will buy you an outhouse. That's most probably inflation.
Not inflation, however, is the effect that income disparities have on
markets. When a smaller percentage of the population takes in a greater
percentage of the nation's wealth, people who may seem to be earning the
same amount of money are actually LOSING ground because of what I call the

it are usually pretty limited and partisan. In 2012, the last time the

20 May 2013
(Quartz) – A report released today by the US Geological Survey (USGS) today
shows that Americans are sucking dry the aquifers that irrigate their crops
and supply their drinking water. Between 1900 and 2008, the US lost 1,000
cubic kilometers (240 cubic miles) of groundwater. That’s twice the volume
of the water in Lake Erie.
It gets worse. The rate of groundwater depletion is accelerating,

In-between
One of the things we do when it's too wet to play in the garden, and in
between other projects, is get in wood. This used to involve sharpening the
gasoline powered chain saw, fire up the pickup, go get a permit, head forty
miles into the mountains, compete with other homesteaders for the
picked-over trashwood on the landing, load up, and drive the groaning truck
back down the sharp mountain curves, trying not to run over other, often
not dirt-road-wise, permittees scrabbling their way up the washboard gravel.
We're a little too old for that. But still cooking on wood. Our own plac... more »

Fiduciary duty
The Toronto Party v. Toronto (City), 2013 ONCA 327 discusses how fiduciary
duties arise:
[37] The concept of fiduciary obligation has a venerable lineage
rooted in the notion of breach of confidence, an original head of
jurisdiction in Chancery: *Gué**rin v. The Queen*, [1984] 2 S.C.R. 335, at
p. 383. Where by statute, agreement, or perhaps by unilateral undertaking,
one party has an obligation to act for the benefit of another and that
obligation carries with it a discretionary power, the party thus empowered
becomes a fiduciary. Equity intervenes to supervise the relationshi... more »

Study Finds Vitamin C Kills Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis
*Activist Post*
In a striking, unexpected discovery, researchers at Albert Einstein College

TB is caused by infection with the bacterium M. tuberculosis. In 2011, TB
sickened some 8.7 million people and took some 1.4 million lives, according... more »

Brain Prosthetic?
I do not think that this will allow you to activate photographic memory
but it also might well be able to do that. My point is that a prosthetic
device will be in demand for everyone in short order once it proves
possible.
This also strongly informs us of the ways and means to developing brain
training, which presently is also abandoned to those most in need. The
results of brain training needs to be universally applied.
This is well worth pondering.

Magnetic Graphene
This a core breakthrough that pretty well makes certain that graphene will
be able to do everything better and pretty quickly even. I have no doubt
that graphene will be the core of electronics from here on out.
It has actually been quite a ride and long running since the original
discovery several years ago.
As I have posted before this is the enabler for both the Holodec and the
Magnetic Field Exclusion Vessel and just about anything else we may
imagine. How about an intelligent super strong nano cable able to locally
modify its behavior?

Don’t look now, the govt’s just withdrawn all your money
[image: image]
You don’t have to live in Cyprus to find you bank account stripped by
government agents. Just ask Queensland pensioner Adrian Duffy, who emerged
from a quintuple heart bypass only to find his bank had emptied his
account, handing more than $22,000 to the Federal Government—the result of
a move last year to strip every bank account in the country the government
deems is being under-used. The money was only returned when a newspaper
took up their cause.
Governments all around the world are short of money, and they’ll do almost
anything to get it.

A Man of No Integrity and Limitless Hypocrisy
Stephen Harper's performance before the Conservative parliamentary caucus
this morning spoke volumes for the integrity and sense of raw power and
privilege of what passes for a prime minister in Canada today.
Harper played victim and complained about how he was very upset at the
conduct of certain Parliamentarians (i.e. Duffy, Wallin and Brazeau) and
how he'd been let down by his own Prime Minister's Office.
Having, like Pilate, washed his hands of the affair, Harper demanded the
Senate reform itself forthwith, clean up its act, put an end to these
transgressions.

Kill the filibuster before it kills us
I'm one of the last holdouts on this. I've argued for years that we should
keep the filibuster to protect the Senate minority. But that was before the
entire Republican party's brains melted before our eyes. Now convinced Paul
Waldman is right.
The crackpots have taken over the GOP. When they manage to take the
majority again, and they will, they will kill the filibuster. My only
quibble with Paul is I don't think they'll wait a hot minute. They'll kill
it preemptively on the first day of the session. So Harry Reid should just

Release of monies seized under civil remedy legislation so as to retain counsel
In AG v $104,877 US, 2013 ONSC 2955, just released, Justice Perell allowed
monies to be released from funds seized and preserved under the civil
remedies legislation to allow civil counsel to be retained. Civil counsel
(not myself) will now be retained to dispute the seizure.
Apparently this is the first time monies have been released in this way.
The decision is careful and sets out the necessary standard. I expect it
will be released on line soon but I have a copy now for anyone who needs it.
The soaring confidence of the bourgeoisie
Roger Carr (no relation to Jimmy I presume?) the Head of the CBI has

just how much things are going the ruling class. David Cameron has done
more for the British bourgeoisie than any recent Prime Minister,
drastically redistributing wealth upward and reducing all practical
opposition to austerity to nought… but that’s not enough for Roger Carr.
He wants the debate about corporations and taxation to be framed thus.

Harder living in Hamilton [updated]
The notion of the so-called “living wage” essentially is that employees are
to be paid not for what they do, but for how many mouths they have to feed.
It’s called a “living wage,” but to the extent the wage is paid above what
the wage-earner produces, the extra has to be paid for by someone—whose own
living is thereby made correspondingly harder. And to the extent the wage
is made irrelevant to what wage earners produce—their production being the
reason they were employed in the first place—their incentive to produce is
disconnected from their incentive to earn.

anonymous-looking case. It sounds impressive, and with upgraded SmartGlass
