The Community In Morocco: Traveling Living DOing
Community Morocco: Update!
Things are coming together very very quickly now and moving forward so fast
it is becoming difficult to keep track of it all.
Brian and Justin have written an excellent update that covers most of the
updates of the Community in Morocco and how we are moving forward.
As for my family's update, we picked up our passports yesterday! YAY!!!
and it only took 2 attempts, 3 sets of couriered documents, a few hundred
dollars, and just about 7 weeks ...... But that's behind us now, and NOW
we move forward!!!

REPOST: Where's my free will?
I don’t know about you, but when I tune in to the infantile ‘debate’ about
obesity – about who to blame when folk get fat and how ‘someone must do
something” (for “someone” read “government,” and for “something” read
coercion) – I find it disturbing that fatties and pollies alike find common
cause in removing personal responsibility from their respective equations.
If you're a fat bastard and you don't want to be, how about you stop
blaming vending machines, your school, your parents, your genes and just
try the 'don't-eat-so-frigging-much' diet. (Do you see many fat starving ... more »
Why are Welfare Cuts a Moral Crusade?
Can't find employment and dread the fortnightly grilling down the job
centre? Can't afford the bedroom tax so have to rely on food banks to get
you and yours through the week? At the end of your tether because you're
waiting an age for the appeal against your Work Capability Assessment
decision, which found you fit for work when your doctor and consultant both
have prescribed nothing but rest? Well, chin up. These humiliations all
come from a compassionate place. You see, Dave's on a mission. A moral
mission.

"I Desire" by John Hinkley Jr.
*John Hinckley Letter to Radio StationNov. 1982*
Copy of letter written by John Hinckley to the "Morning Zoo" radio DJs at
KZEW in Dallas, TX.
Dated Nov. 1982, John mentions his love of new wave music, especially DEVO.
He says "I co-wrote a song on their new album. The song is *My Desire* and
I want you to play it 58 times each day."
DEVO used portions of a letter that John Hinckley wrote to Jodie Foster as
lyrics to the song "I Desire" from the "Oh, No! It's DEVO" album. Warner
Bros was not happy when they found out they'd have to pay Hinckley for his
lyrics.

How far did we get with Hawking’s first book?
*THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 2014*
*Even after all these years, we didn’t get very far:* This morning, at the

Brain scans: mathematical beauty acts just like artistic beauty
The concept of beauty in physics or mathematics has been discussed dozens of
times on this blog. You may also find things like a two-hour debate about
beauty in mathematics – this one features Barry Mazur, Brian Greene, Elaine
Scarry, Mario Livio, and Eva Brann.
If it is supposed to be helpful at all, the concept of "beauty" is a
problematic one because one must have the "right sense of beauty" which is
usually inseparable from some talent as well as education in mathematics
and physics in order to really "feel" the beauty of the beautiful laws and
mathematical structures and to pre... more »

QUOTE OF THE DAY: On “Giving Back”

becoming billionaires. Yet they’re told they have to 'give back.'
Give back? What did they take? If I take your car, I should give it
back. In fact, I shouldn’t steal in the first place. Stealing is wrong,
and it should be illegal. But creating and producing are not theft.
That’s why people become billionaires: Because they create... more »

BBC secret exposed: Greenpeace, activists, BP decide what "science" brits see -- Hello TwentyEightGate << JoNova

into its charter). In the meantime, the BBC did everything it could to hide

January 2014 was an especially bloody month in Iraq. Not only was there

that saw a decided increase in attacks since the uprising in Anbar started.
There were also scattered attacks throughout the south, and low-level

what security could be like the rest of the year.

Rachel Maddow keeps selling the product!

Someday, we may find out.
Last weekend, our old pal Bill Maher came around to one part of our

the way MSNBC had been immersing itself in the topic, pushing all else to

Can we talk? The Channel has been selling Fort Lee as a TV mystery drama—as

INSPIRATION FROM INDIA
- For the third time during recent weeks J. Narayana Rao (3rd from left

India where he lives. Rao is a retired railroad worker and a long-time
peace activist. He's recently created a powerpoint presentation and
appears to have first used it at his Feb 18 talk at the National Institute
of Social Work. His brief report about the presentation is worth reading:

Harper government asks for help rewriting Canada's prostitution laws
The Harper government wants to hear from the Canadian public about how to
rewrite the nation's prostitution laws that were struck down by the Supreme
Court late last year - why? Because they don't know how to write a new law
to replace the old laws which were struck down, a new law which would not
violate the Canadian Charter of Rights and not be struck down immediately
for violating the charter.
In a December 20th 2013 ruling, the high court unanimously struck down laws
against street soliciting, living on the avails of prostitution and keeping
a brothel.
Since then the Harper go... more »

*High Strangeness: Not So Imaginary Beings?*
*By Scott Corrales © 2014*
Some readers may look back with a certain fondness upon their youthful
pastimes, such as the role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons, which allowed
players to imagine an existence in a sword-and-sorcery setting under the
controlling eye of a “dungeon master”, fighting all manner of impossible
creatures in a hunt for treasure, weapons and spell books. Armed only with
pencil, paper, dice of assorted geometries and a lead figurine marking the
player’s position on the hexagonal chart paper of the dungeon, tens of

Common Core Voted Down Unanimously in Bradley County, TN
by Denise Wilburn and Jim Horn
Bradley County Schools was the first school district to formally stand
against linking teacher license renewal to Tennessee’s value-added
assessment system, an outlandish idea that passed on October 17, 2013.
Pressure across the state built, and late last month the State Board of
Education announced plans to shelve those plans.
Such leadership at the local level in Bradley County, Tennessee is very

children’s and teachers’ rights to learn and teach in ways that protect

Inequality seems to have made the wealthy very upset...for themselves.

“Is it us, or have America’s ultrawealthy been sounding increasingly

31 percent from 2009 to 2012 while the other 99 percent of America saw a

THE PRESS CORPS [HEART] ACCUSERS: An act of astounding misconduct!
*WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 2014*
*Part 3—What Chris Matthews did:* As a matter of theory, journalists aren’t
supposed to fall in love with accusers.
Sometimes, accusers’ claims are false, whether by design or by error. For
that reason, journalists should approach their claims with appropriate
caution.
When that isn’t done, the results can be quite bad. Case in point:
Back in the late 1990s, the mainstream press corps fell in love with a
string of high-profile accusers. Their accusations were assumed to be true,
even when they were false.
One such accuser was Kathleen Willey. In Marc... more »

Ukraine: Hellish War-Zone In A European Capital
Earlier last December we looked at a tragic mess unfolding in slow
motionin Ukraine. Back then there were already people demanding
revolution, not
reform. Simple look: the conservatives, backed by Russia, don't want
anything to do with the EU. The more forward-looking Ukrainians want to
break free of the Russian orbit and join the EU. The repressive and
authoritarian government of the uber-corrupt Viktor Yanukovych is making
the country so toxic in the minds of EU citizens that they forget about
admitting Ukraine altogether. Even though it is the biggest country in
Europe and even... more »

Italy claiming France, the whole mediterranean and parts of germany because
the Roman Empire held them at one moment in time or another.

Armed with his degree in Economics, Harper moved straight into politics as

White Specks of Radiation at Fukushima
Majia's Blog - 1 day ago
NHK has a very interesting documentary (hat tip Enenews) on the
contaminated water at the Daiichi site:
Fukushima Daiichi's Hidden Crisis: http://vimeo.com/8559542
[Majia's summary] A robot was sent into one of the reactor's outer
containment vessels and the water was found to be highly radioactive there,
indicating cracks in all levels of containment. What is particularly
relevant is NHK's description of the white flecks in the water as caused by
radiation:

China Demands Japanese Explanation About "That Other Plutonium" ( Ah , someone is finally questioning Japan about its secret nuclear program ) - - If a country claims that it sticks by the three non-nuclear principles but at same time hoards far more nuclear materials than it needs, including a massive amount of weapon-grade plutonium, the world has good reason to ask why ...... If the Japanese government truly wants to play a constructive role for regional stability, it should honestly explain its reluctance to the world and return the stored nuclear materials as soon as possible. After all, Abe and his cabinet have already caused too much trouble to regional peace and stability.

The CBO Whiffs on the Minimum Wage
The
Congressional Budget Office has just issued a report on the minimum
wagethat is a real head-scratcher. Analyzing proposals to raise the
minimum
wage to $9.00 or $10.10 per hour, it concludes in the latter case that
there would be 500,000 fewer jobs in the second half of 2016 than there
would be under current law (100,000 fewer for $9.00/hr.).
Predictably, conservatives have seized on this number as proof that the
minimum wage is a "job killer." Even liberal media, such as Talking

Memo in this paragraph's link, seem to think that number is a big
problem,

CMS reports a slight higgsino excess: no exclusions possible
The CMS collaboration at the LHC has released two new papers today (so
far). One of them reinterprets some results on long-lived charged particles
in pMSSM. The other one is arguably more interesting:
Search for electroweak production of higgsinos in channels with two Higgs
bosons decaying to \(b\) quarks in \(pp\)-collisions at \(8\TeV\)
It is based on \(19.3/{\rm fb}\) of the 2012 data. They wanted to exclude
the higgsinos with masses between \(270\) and \(350\GeV\). However, the
exclusions couldn't be derived due to a "slight excess" of the relevant
