HUGE win for pro-choice in PEI
Well, that didn't take much. Just three-plus decades. A horrifying story of a woman needing medical care turned away from a Prince Edward Island hospital. A clever guerrilla poster campaign featuring a likeness (maybe) of the Island's most famous fictional character. Bunch of rallies and demonstrations. A scathing video on abortion access in the Maritimes. Oh, yeah, and a constitutional challenge. Today, the government of PEI threw in the towel on abortion. The Prince Edward Island government announced today that it will not oppose a constitutional challenge to provincial polic... more »
We Must Not Destroy the Constitution to Save It
[image: FILE - In this Dec. 2, 2015, file photo, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump speaks during a campaign rally at the Prince William County fair grounds in Manassas, Va. A U.S. judge is urging the Obama administration to protect from public disclosure federal court records involving the once-secret criminal history of a former Trump business partner.

Patrick Murphy Had A Bad 33rd Birthday
Yesterday was Wall Street errand boy Patrick Murphy (New Dem-FL) celebrated his 33rd birthday on daddy's yacht. The sometimes business-partner of Donald Trump had something to celebrate too: he just surpassed the one million dollar mark in direct-- not county his sleazy SuperPACs-- cash from the Finnace Sector. He is the *only* non-incumbent from wither party running for the Senate, who the banksters have already gone over $1,000,000 for. Florida voters who are unaware of Murphy's shameful record in Congress should ask themselves why he is Wall Street's #1 priority this cycle. Bel... more »
'Newsnight' "run by kids"
Well, I've seen it all now. First *Newsnight *had Emily Maitlis interviewing the Cookie Monster. Then it had Kirsty Wark made up as a zombie and dancing to Michael Jackson's *Thriller *for Halloween. Then it had George Monbiot cooking a dead squirrel for James O'Brien to eat live on air. And now, on last night's show, we were 'treated' to the spectacle of Evan Davis interviewing the farmer from CBeebies' *Shaun the Sheep *over the issue of 'what Brexit might mean for British farmers'. Unbelievable! When Jeremy Paxman said that *Newsnight *had been taken over by "kids" under Ia... more »

Ancient Pyramids Were High Frequency Power Stations
We pick up a few bits here. I find it unlikely that Napoleon had much to steal after three thousand years of looting. More problematic however, a static energy supply and the apparent battery distribution system simply would never have been allowed to shut down. Further, there is no evidence any such thing existed during the Bronze Age when this pyramid was built. That pushes us back to Pre Pleistocene Nonconformity times or before 12900 BP. What it does do is establish a plausible reason for building the original Pyramid itself. Then why did it not work or did it work but remai... more »
Police in the United States Escape Prosecution on Civil Rights 96 Percent of the Time.
Police must operate to a higher standard. Failure been ignored creates a permissive mindset and this leads to our present situation where it appears that police are now running amok. That should never be seen to be true. Permissiveness regarding one standard leads to creeping permissiveness regarding other standards as well and discipline ultimately slips. It is the inevitable slippery slope that ultimately needs to be corrected by draconian methods including retraining. *Police in the United States managed to escape prosecution when facing allegations they violated civil r... more »
'Winning' is Trump's Electoral Strategy
When Trump announced his candidacy, I understood immediately that he had one massive advantage. He already had decades of brand building behind him. While every other candidate had to spend hundreds of millions just to be remembered on election day, he already had that recognition. That meant that his real risk was in establishing credentials as a potential president. If he could do that then he had to win as no one has enough money or time to overcome the name recognition advantage. Then he went to work and he deployed what even in hindsight looks to be an absurd strategy. H... more »
As Muslim Population Grows, what can happen to a Society?
For the paranoid, this is what it all looks like if nothing is done to counter all this. On the other hand once society does get the will to correct the worst tendencies all this stops been an issue. I really do not think that we need be rough about it with those in our society as they all become acculturated. What needs to be addressed is the abuse of hate laws under the guise of religion. That protects even their own adherents Otherwise this is the Islamic dream of hate run amok. The rest of the world is learning about all this and discovering that there remains no compr... more »

Bombshell: Government Medical Chief Says MMR Vaccine Causes Autism
A former UK Government medical officer has accused authorities of orchestrating one of the greatest scandals in medical history in deliberately covering up the fact that the MMR vaccine causes autism. Dr Peter Fletcher, former Chief Scientific Officer at the Department of Health, says the UK government have behaved with “utterly inexplicable complacency” in ignoring thousands of documents that prove the dangers of the MMR vaccine on children. “The refusal by governments to evaluate the risks properly will make this one of the greatest scandals in medical history,” Fletcher says.

Non-Fiction Review: One Minute To Midnight
I first read Michael Dobbs' *One Minute To Midnight* when it was first published, back in 2008. Both due to my general enjoyment of history and that I have an RPG campaign in the late 1950s (a few years before this) I recently listened to the unabridged audiobook version of this book. The impression I'm left with is amazement that humanity as a species survived the Cold War in general and the Cuban Missile Crisis specifically. Throughout the thirteen days of the crisis there were multiple points where war between the USA and USSR could have broken out - from the USA discovering... more »

"A Look to the Heavens"
“Why isn't this ant a big sphere? Planetary nebula Mz3 is being cast off by a star similar to our Sun that is, surely, round. Why then would the gas that is streaming away create an ant-shaped nebula that is distinctly not round? *Click image for larger size.* Clues might include the high 1000-kilometer per second speed of the expelled gas, the light-year long length of the structure, and the magnetism of the star visible above at the nebula's center.

"Why?"
"Is there an answer to the question of why bad things happen to good people? The response would be… to forgive the world for not being perfect, to forgive God for not making a better world, to reach out to the people around us, and to go on living despite it all, no longer asking why something happened, but asking how we will respond, what we intend to do now that it has happened." - Harold S.

Kim Jong-un Threatens China With Nuclear War, Declares Country ‘An Enemy’
Kim Jong-un has warned that North Korea is on the verge of sending China a “nuclear storm” for its “betrayal of socialism”, according to a leaked document from the Workers’ Party of North Korea. The document reads, “we must no longer go easy on the Chinese and instead deal with them equally in order to change their attitude of taking us lightly,” and repeatedly refers to China as an “enemy state.” North Korea now consider China to be on the same ranks as South Korea, the U.S., and Japan. The document, dated March 10, officially outlines a new doctrine on policies toward China and ex... more »

China to Deploy Nuclear Ballistic Missiles Capable of Striking America
Military experts have warned that China is about to deploy intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of delivering a nuclear warhead to mainland America. As Chinese President Xi Jinping meets with officials in Washington DC for the Nuclear Security Summit, military experts have raised serious concerns over China’s DF-41 nuclear missiles: “Given the number of real reported tests, it is reasonable to speculate the DF-41 will be deployed to PLA Strategic Rocket Force bases in 2016,” said Richard Fisher, senior fellow at the International Assessment and Strategy Center.

After Rothschild Speech, Jean-Claude van Damme Summoned To Israel

Japan plans to build a 1.5-km-long underground refrigeration system around the Fukushima nuclear power plant in the hope of containing groundwater contamination around the crippled facility.

Quote of the Day: On being ‘privileged’
*“It is common nowadays to refer to anyone with wealth or opportunities as ‘privileged.’ Loving parents don’t pass on opportunities to their children, they bestow privileges. A self-made businessman who rose from rags to riches isn’t a model of achievement— he’s privileged. Using ‘privilege’ in this way means that we don’t distinguish between children who work to make the most of the opportunities their parents give them and entitled brats who expect everything to be handed to them— and it means we don’t distinguish between those who achieve something through productive merit ... more »

March 31: The truth we have not learned.
The Fertile Crescent is a great arc of land that stretches from Yemen through the Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and Egypt. Twelve thousand years ago, it was the birthplace of all civilizations in this world. And the birthplace of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Not surprisingly, there are great similarities between these religions. Not surprisingly, the various religious groups prefer not to see their similarities but to poke away at their differences. This region is the one referred to in The Bible as the Garden of Eden. However, the expulsion may have been the result of ch... more »

Recall that Barry Goldwater had his main electoral success in the Deep South, where he won five states in an otherwise disastrous try for the presidency in ... more »
