gop.com: Fire Pelosi (Photo credit: Kyle Rush)
GOP Hill (Photo credit: goldberg)New adventures in GOP hostage taking
Over at John Boehner's House of Dysfunction the Republicans have a problem.
They want to use the next debt ceiling reauthorization to extract policy
concessions from the Democratic party. The old strategy of issuing an all
or nothing demand was a loser. It was a PR disaster.They couldn't find a
way to blame the outcome, (or lack thereof), on the White House. Any sort
of compromise is impossible. Boehner's crackpot caucus not only won't
entertain discussion on the subject, they threaten to take Boehner's gavel
for even bringing it up.
So the genius tacticians of the GOP have come up... more »
Sunday Question for Liberals
We're doing the flip side of last week: what politician(s) are you most
embarrassed that you supported?
As I explained in the conservative question, I'm not talking about, say,
support for Reagan or Bush before you became a liberal. I'm looking for
either politicians you supported who turned out to be other than what you
thought at the time, or politicians you had to hold your nose to support
(yeah, I know, some of you went to this in last week's flip side, but I was
already planning to do it as this week's question...).
Sunday Question for Conservatives
The flip side of last week's question: what politician are you most
embarrassed at having supported?
As with last week, I'm not looking for big changes you've made (in other
words, not looking for those who supported McGovern or Clinton or Obama
when they were young and liberal) -- I'm interested in either politicians
who disappointed you by being something other than what you thought at the
time, or (equally interesting to me) politicians you didn't like at the
time but thought were the best choice for strategic reasons.

New Factors in Personal Financial Planning
[image: Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...]
David Redick
Personal Financial Planning is one of the most important things you should
do, but it is often overlooked. Today's world has financial risks that have
never existed before, so much of the "traditional" planning logic is wrong
or has voids. For example, most (over 95%) of investors assume it is
appropriate to have their assets denominated in US Dollars (USD) if they
are a US citizen. After all, the USD is the world's primary reserve
currency (banks hold it as reserves - good as gold -, and any Seller will

Sunday Classics: Brooding and striving, grand and intimate, it's Bruch's "Scottish Fantasy"

Max Bruch's *Scottish Fantasy* for Violin and Orchestra.
With this installment we have concluded our survey of the three works of

would think about its composer's roots") and the great First Violin

Sunspot AR1785 ‘grows’ 25,000 Miles In Size Over 24-Hour Period
Chris Carrington
Sunspot AR1785 has grown just under 25,000 miles in 24 hours. It has
widened and lengthened, which could lead to instability in the magnetic
field of the sunspot. When the magnetic field loops and swirls it can
collapse back in on itself; it's this that produces strong flares.
The shape of this region is changing all the time to a much greater extent
than is seen in most sunspots. AR1785 is now 11 times the size of the Earth
and is still growing as it moves across the Sun.
Within the next day or two it will be at the center of the Sun disc and any

Italy can't pay bills for technical reasons ( in the new normal , being broke is a technical reason for not paying bills ) .... Portugal's political situation remains unclear despite the happy talk of solutions being found that would secure the stability of the government - and does any solution reconcile austerity demands of the Troika versus the need to take the foot off the neck of the portuguese people ?

15 Signs That The Quality Of Jobs In America Is Going Downhill Really Fast
Michael Snyder
Trying to find a job in America today can be an incredibly frustrating
experience. Most of the jobs that are available seem to pay very little,
and there is intense competition for just about any job that is open. But
it wasn't always like this. When I was in high school, I was immediately
hired when I applied for a job at McDonald's because they were so desperate
for workers that they would hire just about anyone that could flip a
burger. But in this economic environment, a single nationwide hiring event
conducted by McDonald's resulted in a million job applicat... more »
Remember the Cataclysmic Economic Failure of 2008?
It seems like only yesterday to me that the Wall Street fraud campaign
almost brought down the entire world economy. Were it not for the trillions
and trillions of dollars from US taxpayers that was taken to bail-out the
banksters, the world economy would have melted down.
Now where are we? The banks are as predatory as ever. The
political-capitalist class is doubling down on the immiseration of the
majority policies that have hollowed out the world economy to the point
where financial sector alchemy and parasitism is the biggest game in town.

Targeting Foreign Leaders: Longstanding US Policy
Stephen Lendman
No one's safe from America's long arm. From inception, CIA operatives
developed skills to kill.
Fidel Castro survived hundreds of assassination attempts. He knows best how
Washington operates.
Other leaders weren't as lucky. In April 1994, CIA surface-to-air missiles
killed Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana and Burundi President Cyprien
Ntaryamira.
Downing their plane put Paul Kagame in power. He became Washington's man in
Rwanda. Ethnic slaughter continued what began earlier. It's longstanding US

ElBaradei Heads Egypt's Interim Government
Stephen Lendman
It's official. He's Washington's man in Cairo. More on that below.
Ousting Morsi unleashed widespread violence. Pitched battles erupted. Both

On July 6, Russia Today reported Friday's toll caused 36 deaths. One or
more others followed. Over 1,100 were injured. Unknown numbers were
arrested.
Neither side's yielding so far. Egypt's Supreme Council of the Armed Forces
(SCAF) is notoriously brutal. Mercy isn't in its vocabulary. It conspired
with Washington against Morsi.
Popular outrage made him damaged goods. He's gone. He's under hou... more »

Courts Rule Vaccines Containing MMR and Thimerosal Caused Autism and Brain Damage
Dees Illustration Joe Martino
All information containing new and unprecedented conclusions begins by
being violently opposed by those who create the prior information and those
who subscribe heavily to it. This is very much the case with the link
between Autism Spectrum Disorder and vaccines; mainly the MMR vaccine and
other thimerosal-containing vaccines.
It is clear that the stance from mainstream science is that there is no
link between vaccines and autism. You can find more about that here. But
for many people this does not dispel all concern. Dr. Hooker, PhD, PE says

Lead Gardasil Vaccine Creator Confesses to Clear Conscience

Media, medical and science claims love to push that untreated HPV (Human

it can't be confirmed if getting Gardasil and Cervavix actually take
cervical cancer cases down. What's really shaky is the safety of a
seriously under-evaluated vaccine pushed on both young girls and boys who
may or may not become sexually active soon and may never contract HPV.
According to the manufacturers, the vaccine only addresses 4 out of 40 HPV
strains.

11 Signs That Italy Is Descending Into A Full-Blown Economic Depression
Michael Snyder
When you get into too much debt, really bad things start to happen. Sadly,
that is exactly what is happening to Italy right now. Harsh austerity
measures are causing the Italian economy to slow down even more than it was
previously. And yet even with all of the austerity measures, the Italian
government just continues to rack up even more debt. This is the exact
same path that we watched Greece go down. Austerity causes government
revenues to drop which causes deficit reduction targets to be missed which
causes even more austerity measures to become necessary.

Insanity in the genes.
During the few years I contributed to the Biased-BBC blog the area that
particularly interested me was the BBC’s one-sided attitude towards all
Israel-related matters, and latterly the BBC’s naïve, misguided and flawed
interpretation of Arab Spring; from ecstatic live reporting from Tahrir
Square, to the ongoing Pollyannaish euphoria over the dawning of democracy
throughout the Arab World.

into cyber-oblivion, but they still seem relevant, despite everything that

TV Watch: If "Food Network Star" has often felt a bit wheezy in Season 9, it's still had its moments
*Easily the dopiest challenge of Season 9 of Next Food Network Star was
Episode 4's "Dinner and a Movie," in which three-person teams not only had
to create a dinner suitable for a genre of movie -- romance, Western, and
musical -- but do a trailer for it. Team Musical (Rodney the pie man,

Hospitals-- A Place People Go To Get Even Sicker?
I'm sure many people think of hospitals as places to go to be cured of
sickness. I always think of hospitals as places to go to die. And not just
to die because medicine doesn't cure much of anything but die because
hospitals all filled with disease so that patients who go to them are at
risk of catching something unrelated to whatever brought them there in the
first place-- and dying. Does that sound crazy?

Europeans come down with just such an infection in a hospital *every year*!

An Arab winter?
The coup in Egypt
If Morsi couldn't create a new center, the reason might not have been
because he was paranoid or heavy-handed but because there is for now no
viable center as Egypt emerges from decades of dictatorship.

Largest Sunspot In Cycle 24 Emerges: Chance Of X-Class Flare Increases Dramatically

Sunspot AR1787 is one of the biggest if not the biggest of the whole of

size of the Earth and it has the energy to produce X-Class flares, though
that magnetic field is still building and is nowhere near its full

What Might Have Been
Commenting on my last post, PLG wrote thusly:
Well, I don't have much to say about your "unpopular essays" so I haven't.
I don't disagree, but I'm damned if I see a plausible way of fixing it.
A new party? There are new parties. They get nowhere. And if they got
somewhere, they'd just split the vote anyway.
A new Waffle? Maybe. But to get anywhere, and present a real alternative,
it would need to be connected to a strong grassroots progressive movement
of some sort.
. . . Um, yeah. Grassroots progressive movements in Canada (well, outside
Quebec) are about as marginal as in the State... more »

State Demands $700,000 from Michigan Farm Family and the Destruction of 70 Farm Animals
David Michael
[*Editor's note:* Over $10,000 has been raised to help the Baker family
fight the motion for all farmers nationwide, with $14,000 left to go. It is
encouraged by the author to consider donating $17.76 to make a statement.
More ways to help below.]
On this Independence Day we should be celebrating freedom and thankful for
those who died, were injured and served in the military over the decades to
keep the freedom we have. This is the thanks this 20-year military veteran
has received from the Michigan state government and this is an example of
those freedoms being... more »
New Study Confirms Wheat-Autism Link
Sayer Ji
*As the autism epidemic continues to accelerate, one of the least well
known contributing factors goes mostly unnoticed: wheat consumption. *
A new study published in the open access journal *PLoS* is reinvigorating
the debate over what are the primary causes of the accelerating autism
epidemic. Whereas too many within the conventional medical establishment,
failing to identify a singular cause, apathetically label the condition
"idiopathic," i.e. cause unknown, or worse, "caused by unknown defective
genes," there is a growing awareness that a multitude of environmental

Britain and Sweden block critical talks on espionage and intelligence between EU and US

EU Parliament/Flickr Madison Ruppert
Britain and Sweden vetoed plans to launch two working groups to deal with
issues of espionage and intelligence with the United States, thus
restricting upcoming talks in Washington to issues of data privacy and the
National Security Agency’s PRISM program.
Instead of allowing two working groups to deal with the complex issues that have
been raised in the wake of stories publicizing the United States’
surveillance of Europeans, especially Germans, there will be just one
working group focusing on the PRISM program.

Economic Bizarro World: Persistently High Unemployment And Skyrocketing Bond Yields Are Good?
Michael Snyder
The mainstream media is heralding today's "fantastic" employment numbers as
evidence that the U.S. economy is steadily recovering. But is that really
true? The number of jobs created in June was just a little bit more than
what is required to keep up with population growth, and the official
unemployment rate remained at 7.6 percent. And if you look deeper in the
numbers, they don't look very good at all. The percentage of low paying
part-time jobs in the economy continues to rise, the number of full-time
jobs actually *decreased* and the U-6 unemployment number ... more »

Going beyond Various People Against Bad Things
According to this, Ed Miliband apparently wants to investigate the
possibility of maybe, perhaps, perchance breaking the formal link between
the Labour Party and the unions. There is a world of difference between the
unions breaking from Labour (i.e. a self-confident working class asserting
itself) and the Labour Party breaking from the unions (the working class
being isolated from mainstream politics). The most sensible reckoning is
Miliband will look at a way of keeping Unite's money, just shrugging off
all those nasty trade unionists who want a pro quo for their quid.

Marche Funèbre
On Wednesday, an elderly couple (ages 70 and 69) won the lottery,
restricted to 20 applicants daily, to hike to the famous rock formation in
Arizona called The Wave. In order to protect the remote site, there is
only a 10% chance of gaining access - out of 48,000 people last year, there
were 7,300 allowed to make the treck.
The pair were found dead the next day, the wife huddled under one of the
few juniper trees. Naturally, the news article blames the heat, which
reached 106 degrees - but, typical for deaths attributed to heat, doesn't
mention the level of air pollution. This i... more »

Brotherhood, Army risk Civil War: 30 Dead, Hundreds Wounded
Posted on 07/06/2013 by Juan Cole
Egypt veered sharply toward the looming specter of civil war on Friday, as
the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood continued to call for resistance
to the overthrow of Muhammad Morsi, who had been the elected head of state
before the army deposed him on Wednesday.
On Thursday, the military had arrested the Supreme Guide of the Muslim
Brotherhood, Muhammad Badie, at Marsa Matrouh and brought him by ... more »
My Message to the Badass Association of Teachers
Reblogged from Diane Ravitch's blog: I was uneasy with the name , but I got
over it. The reality is that the Badass Association of Teachers fills a
need. Teachers have been beaten up in the media, and have seen state after
state strip away their academic freedom, their rights, their status in the
community. […]
Seven More Songs for the Summer
We've been here before. That seldom-seen golden globe is beating down from
a clear sky and baking Britain to a crisp. It is the time of Pimms,
sunburn, knotted hankies and utterly superb music. In this summer is unique
among the seasons for demanding a soundtrack. And never one to be backwards
about coming forward with my cultivated and stylish taste in all things
electronic, here are seven more songs for the summer. Be advised: best
heard loud.
Sadly, no one does memes and tagging any more on blogs. *Sigh*, another
casualty of social media. But to try and jumpstart thi... more »
Vaccination Causes Autism – Here’s What They Know…
Autism is a form of vaccine injury
image source Christina England
For many years, parents have believed that multiple vaccinations have
caused their children to become autistic. Governments from around the
world, however, have categorically denied this possibility.They continue to
bury their heads in the sand and ignore what is happening. They refuse to
carry out relevant studies and will not answer any questions that may
uncover the truth about vaccines.
Their actions are clearly demonstrated in a video titled *AutismOne &
Generation Rescue 2013 Conference Congressional Panel*, f... more »
New Wave of Mini Robots Has Arrived
No name yet for this bot;

image source Nicholas West
Beyond the economic debate of whether humans will officially be outsourced
to robots -- or not (maybe by 2045) -- there is no question that the
military-industrial complex loves the idea of creating robots that can
serve the battlefield and beyond. Here are some of their current favorites.
- PETMAN humanoid robot
- Sand Flea jumping robot
- Robobee - pollinator/surveillance
- Cryo - robot jellyfish to patrol the oceans
- Cheetah - designed to chase human prey (and now has ... more »
Cult of irrationality
Dear "serious" news channel: This is not helping:
On Friday, CNBC anchor Joe Kernen described climate science as a “bona fide
cult” of “enviro socialists” in an interview with the former CEO of Shell
Oil.
The two of them yukked it up over this "foolishness." The CEO laments we're
"not dealing with the real problems." I assume by that he means, his profit
margin is simply not obscenely high enough yet. He'll never get that
gargantuan bonus without it.
It's not surprising CNBC would be in the pocket of BigBusiness but ye gods,
they're working against their own self-interest when th... more »
A Progressive Continuum: Paying it Forward
by Cecil Bothwell
Thanks to support from readers of this blog, and Glen Greenwald's
endorsement, I was able to wage a credible primary campaign against our
former Blue Dog Rep. Heath Shuler.
Heath dropped out, we think in part because polls suggested we might win.
But big money won the primary for Heath's deputy, who then went on to lose
the General.
That loss was due in at least some measure to NC redistricting that tilted
this district to the right.
Far beyond what that gerrymander did to Tar Heel representation in
Washington, it bent the election for our General Assembly. Tea... more »
