Which Freshmen Will Wind Up With Ethics Violations? You Can Already Tell By Their Attitudes
New Jersey corruption: Norcross (D), Christie (R) New Jersey politicians have a reputation. There's a transpartisan/transactional culture of corruption that permeates Garden State politics, exemplified by the cozy relationship between the country's most corrupt Governor, Republican Chris Christie, and the most venal and slimy batch of Democratic Machine bosses anywhere in America, particularly Brian Stack, Joseph DiVincenzo and George Norcross. Norcross just installed his younger brother, Donald, in an open congressional seat. And the sclerotic, out of touch Democratic party leadersh... more »
Racial Tensions In America: Great Article From Whitewraithe - Jewish Oligarchs Responsible For Promoting Black Criminals In America - The Case Of Michael Brown
Right now, most of America is waiting for the results of the Grand Jury investigation into the Michael Brown shooting in Ferguson Missouri…. I suspect that much of the tension that we are witnessing is being created on purpose by the criminals running the US Federal Government as a means of cracking down on personal freedoms in America and to bring forth Martial Law across the United States…. Yes, in spite of living here in Canada, I have been following some of the reports coming out of Ferguson Missouri, and what I see is a no win situation for either side, black or white…..

"A Long, Melancholy Roar"
"A Long, Melancholy Roar" by Olivia Judson "On a recent evening at twilight, I was sitting on the grass in Regent’s Park — one of London’s most manicured public spaces — when I heard the fierce, melancholy sound of a lion’s roar. I wasn’t dreaming: it was coming from the zoo. Listening to it, I began to reflect on predators — and us. On returning home, I did some reading. I discovered that between 1990 and 2004, lions attacked 815 people in Tanzania, killing 563. Some of the victims were pulled out of bed during the night after lions forced their way inside huts. Between January 200... more »
"Why We Need to Dream"
"Why We Need to Dream" By Jonah Lehrer "When I can’t sleep, I think about what I’m missing. I glance over at my wife and watch her eyelids flutter. I listen to the steady rhythm of her breath. I wonder if she’s dreaming and, if so, what story she’s telling to herself to pass the time. (The mind is like a shark — it can’t ever stop swimming in thought.) And then my eyes return to the ceiling and I wonder what I would be dreaming about, if only I could fall asleep. Why do we dream? As a chronic insomniac, I like to pretend that our dreams are meaningless narratives, a series of bad B... more »
Taipei: Sean Lien follies continue
[image: random_32] *The government gives a comprehensive list of warnings for the Dajia River.* Sean Lien continues to spout nonsense, to the great amusement of all. Among many lowlights of his campaign include a proposal to solve the stray dog problem by dumping the city's stray dogs down in Chiayi -- a very revealing moment showing how the KMT ruling core views Taiwan outside of Taipei -- it is simply a place to dump their waste, the funeral home fiasco, and the claim that he had visited all 600 precincts of Taipei, when the city only has 400 or so.

"Time Passes..."
"Time passes in moments. Moments which, rushing past, define the path of a life, just as surely as they lead towards its end. How rarely do we stop to examine that path, to see the reasons why all things happen? To consider whether the path we take in life is our own making, or simply one into which we drift with eyes closed? But what if we could stop, pause to take stock of each precious moment before it passes? Might we then see the endless forks in the road that have shaped a life? And, seeing those choices, choose another path?" - Gillian Anderson as Dana Scully, "The X-Files"
"Recharging Your Batteries: Getting Run Down"
*"Recharging Your Batteries: Getting Run Down"* by Madisyn Taylor, The DailyOM "Getting worn out and run down robs you of receiving what you need from the universe. Our natural state of being is vibrant, happy to be alive. Yet, there can be times when we feel run down and worn out. This does not mean that we are lazy or unfit for the tasks in our lives; it means that we need to recharge our batteries and find a way of keeping them charged. Vitamins and extra rest can be very helpful in restoring our physical bodies. And if we are willing to delve deeper, we may discover that there i... more »

Nov. 22: Sorry I'm late.
It is really too bad that we have not seen EastEnergy ads since Thursday. They are really quite wonderful examples of how to lie to people, and manipulate them. Hitler's Dr. Goebbels would have loved them. Notice the simplicity of them, and the use of solid blocks of colour - especially blue. Without us being conscious of it, that makes us think of clean skies. Notice, too, that the ads tell us only that TransCanada Pipelines, really, really cares about the environment. But they never say exactly what it is they care about. There's a reason for that. If the ad tells us what the con... more »

Why Ursula Le Guin's National Book Award Is A Thing
I've never read any of Ursula K.

Emperor Obama Golfs While America Crawls Towards the Abyss of History
More than anything else, the failure of nearly all of America’s institutions – rotted through with moral corruption - signals the coming downfall of a once great country gone to seed.

In 1932, Colmer won a primary against Robert Hall, and that turned out to be a very good year for Democrats. Congressional Republicans lost 101 seats in the House that year.

Chet Raymo, “Finding It Where You Are”; Mary Oliver, “Going To Walden”
*“Finding It Where You Are”* by Chet Raymo “Yes, I've been to Walden. Been there several times, in fact. With students. We sat on the earth at the site of the cabin and read from the book. And the wind stirred the pines, and the hickories, and the oaks, and rippled the pond that shone like silver in the early morning sun. And then, to honor the spirit of the man we came to visit, we sat silently, as if on the stoop of his cabin with friends, knowing that any words, even his own, intruded on the haunting beauty of the place itself. Walden Pond Mary Oliver has a poem called "Going To ... more »

"To Survive You Must..."
“To survive you must surrender without giving in, that is to say, fully accept the reality in all its horror and never give up the will to survive. That allows you to quickly adapt to the situation and dedicate yourself to the present moment rather than wallow in denial. As you run out of options and energy you must become resigned to your plight. Like it or not you must make a new mental map of where you are, not where you wish you were. To survive you must find yourself, then it won't matter where you are. - Laurence Gonzales, “Deep Survival”

The Sandy Hook Shooting FRAUD: Great New Interview With Wolfgang Halbig - Where The Investigation Into That HOAX Stands Today!
I came under fire last weekend where in my Sunday rant I again emphasized that everything now points clearly to the fact that the Sandy Hook shooting of December 14th, 2012 was indeed a massive operation and a total fraud…. It is so shocking that I received the usual comments from trolls and misfits that are still trying to claim that Sandy Hook was somehow "real"… To them, I state again that they need to either get a life, or to decide if they want to continue to be agents of lies and deceit….. I, like everyone else, has been wondering what happened to Wolfgang Halbig and where the...more »

Commentaries, Analysis, And Editorials -- November 21, 2014
*The Islamic State's Terrifying Strategy -- David Ignatius, Washington Post* WASHINGTON -- A centerpiece of President Obama's strategy for defeating the Islamic State is mobilizing tribal fighters to join the Iraqi military in retaking Anbar and other Sunni-dominated provinces. But new research shows the jihadists have been working since 2009 to gut the very Sunni tribal leadership on which Obama's rollback depends -- making the U.S. campaign much more difficult. U.S. strategists want to create a "national guard" version of the tribal militia known as the "Awakening," which in 200... more »

Conservative Revolutionaries and Revolutionary Tories
As someone who spent most of her career on the wrong side of the education history that she wrote about through the rose-colored glasses of a pampered conservative, Diane Ravitch has found real solace, I think, in acknowledging the truth laid bare by the facts that she could no longer deny. The acknowleged truth, however, will set you free or give you real solace only when it is acted upon. The American colonists found solace, for sure, in knowing that King George was a bully and a tyrant, but it was only when they began dumping tea into Boston Harbor that their knowledge and trut... more »
