The World Is Waiting For The Iranian Sanctions* To End
*Steve LeVine, Quartz:* *Iran is about to become the biggest free-for-all since the Soviet collapse* *Businesses around the world are preparing for the largest geopolitically triggered financial bonanza since the 1991 Soviet breakup: Iran’s reopening for business.* *Look for large new oil and other commercial deals, and lower global oil prices.* *The last stage of talks between Tehran and international negotiators, known as the P5+1, begins June 27 in Vienna. The two sides are working against a June 30 deadline, but most observers think the talks will go on for up to another wee... more »
* i.e. The world is waiting for the US to stop selectively defaulting on its debt....making it officially without value to listed parties. I wouldn't be holding my breath on this one. It is a reminder of how much things have changed since the Swiss impartially administered global independent and confidential international banking free from political sabotage ; compared to a blockade ( a measure of war ) without the difficulty of armed interdiction.

June 26, 2015: How Will Church Respond To This Day That Will Live In Infamy?
I remember almost fourteen years ago after the nation was attacked on September 11, 2001, churches around the country were fully alert to the significance of what had taken place. The mood was somber and people in this country were awakened at least for a brief time. From a spiritual standpoint, what has been perpetrated today by the United States Supreme Court against this nation is more catastrophic than what was inflicted by the terrorists on September 11. The propaganda is circulating throughout the media about how "wonderful" the Supreme Court supposedly "legalizing" homo-s... more »

Tonight's Movie Is "Twelve O'Clock High" (1949)
From *Wikipedia*: Twelve O'Clock High is a 1949 American war film about aircrews in the United States Army's Eighth Air Force who flew daylight bombing missions against Nazi Germany and occupied France during the early days of American involvement in World War II, including a thinly disguised version of the notorious Black Thursday strike against Schweinfurt.

Chet Raymo, “Daybreak”
*“Daybreak”* by Chet Raymo “I may have been in the last generation of youngsters who grew up with an awareness of the works of Maxfield Parrish. The children's' books he illustrated were still in circulation. Reproductions of his works appeared with some regularity in books and magazines meant for kids, and they were commonly framed for children's rooms. To me, they represented a fantasy world, a never-never land of make-believe. Those skies! The blues! The golds! The luminous mists! The billowing clouds like castles in the air! The unearthly light that sugarcoats trees and crags! ... more »

The Poet: Carl Sandburg, "What Shall He Tell That Son?"
"What Shall He Tell That Son?" "A father sees a son nearing manhood. What shall he tell that son? 'Life is hard; be steel; be a rock.' And this might stand him for the storms and serve him for humdrum and monotony and guide him amid sudden betrayals and tighten him for slack moments. 'Life is a soft loam; be gentle; go easy.' And this too might serve him. Brutes have been gentled where lashes failed. The growth of a frail flower in a path up has sometimes shattered and split a rock. A tough will counts. So does desire. So does a rich soft wanting. Without rich wanting nothing arrives. Tell... more »

How Corporate Takeovers in Newark and Montclair Spawned a New Solidarity Movement Against CorpEd
Terrific piece at Rethinking Schools by Stan Karp on how corporatization pushes in Newark and Montclair have brought poor and middle class parents and teachers together to save public education, children, and the profession. If you thought corporate takeovers of public schools was just for poor districts, this is a must read. A clip: . . . in the summer of 2012, as Cami Anderson was hollowing out Newark, Montclair hired a new superintendent. Penny MacCormack was new to the state, had never been a superintendent, and wasn’t known to many in Montclair. But those who track state educ... more »

Chris Hedges on Education Privatization
Here is a small clip: The demonizing of teachers is another public relations feint, a way for corporations to deflect attention from the theft of some $17 billion in wages, savings and earnings among American workers and a landscape where one in six workers is without employment. The speculators on Wall Street looted the U.S. Treasury. They stymied any kind of regulation. They have avoided criminal charges. They are stripping basic social services. And now they are demanding to run our schools and universities.

The Economy: "The Single Biggest Driver For Stocks Is Collapsing"

Investors sometimes forget this during periods of speculative manias such as the one we’re experiencing today.

Have I (Not) Got Baroness Trumpington For You
Sorry for not posting much in recent days, but - the blogger's curse - I've not been able to do so. I have, however, had time to read a book. Yes, a book. Complete with paper and a hard back cover. And not on Kindle either. The book in question was *Coming Up Trumps *by 92-year-old Conservative peer, Baroness Trumpington. I don't usually buy such books (I tend to stick to science, maths and history books these days), but the reviews were so enthusiastic and the Baroness herself is such a hoot (as she'd doubtless put it!) that I impulse-bought it.

June 26: "Realtors hope cottage country market will pick up"
That's on page A1. And that's not a story. It's like "Tourists hope to enjoy NB", or "Lobster fishermen hope to catch some lobsters". Now, if the story were "Realtors hope cottage country market will collapse" or "Tourists hope to be miserable in NB", that would be a story. Otherwise, this is just a waste of reporters by a news medium that doesn't have enough of them in the first place. It could be a story if it had a headline like "Cottage sales are slow". But the story never says they're slow. So what is this all about? I have no idea. This is just front page space filled up with... more »

Muslim world is unsafe for Western tourists
Three Islamist attacks took place today. Some injuries in a mosque Kuwait, a beheaded manager in a U.S. company in France; and 28 or more people shot at a beach in Tunisia. Beheading looks scary but I am obviously much more shocked by the Tunisian beach. I/we have been to Tunisia twice, in Summers of 1997 and 2008. I think we were in Sousse – the place of the attack – in 1997. And it was certainly Tabarka in 2008. The country has been one of the most standard paradises for European tourists. In fact, Tabarka hosts so many Czech tourists that Czech is the third most important l... more »
Average speed cameras to blight the life of many Londoners
One of my early pieces on this blog was about the new cameras appearing on the A406 that I thought could become average speed cameras. They didn't but anyone travelling along some of London's main roads will have noticed new gantries and cameras appearing. These are for a new average speed camera system that will soon infest four trial sites and then no doubt spread their revenue raising way across the capital. The first four road sections to be blighted are the A406 (North Circular Road) from the Hanger Lane Gyratory to Bounds Green Road; the A40 from the Polish War Memorial to t...more »
