The Chinese Communist Party’s annual plenum, like everything else about the party’s leadership, is tightly sealed; all that’s revealed to outsiders is the announcements afterward, not the squabbles and intrigues during the ... more »

It's the witch hazel, that most untypical tree, bursting riotously into bloom when everything else is closing down, thumbing its nose at impending winter. None of my botanical handbooks explain why the witch hazel blooms in October and November, even as its leaves are falling to the ground. Where are the insects that will pollinate the blossoms?

Tens Of Millions Of Dollars Are Gushing Into A Few Dozen Congressional Districts

Huge amounts of money is being spent between today and next Tuesday in hot congressional races, much of it on negative TV ads, negative TV ads that tend to cancel themselves out and have a net impact of zero. (It's a massive waste of money that serves only one purpose: making insider operatives incredibly wealthy.)

There's just this for consolation: an hour here or there when our lives seem, against all odds and expectations, to burst open and give us everything we've ever imagined, though everyone but children (and perhaps even they) knows these hours will inevitably be followed by others, far darker a... more »

Cunliffe: Neither good nor effective

The theme building around David Cunliffe’s departure is that he was a disaster as a leader, unpopular with caucus and colleagues, a fake and a phony – all true – but despite that, say the eulogists, he was still a brilliant man who did wonders for telecommunications*. Bullshit. His knowledge of history, economics and much else was bunk. (See here, here, here, and here for instances.)

Google’s Power To Control Elections Is A Threat To Democracy

Edmondo Burr at Your News Wire - 5 hours ago
An American psychologist says that Google‘s search algorithm has the power to influence elections and is therefore a “threat to democracy.” Professor Robert Epstein says people’s trust in “unbiased” internet search giant Google is so much that they allow it to influence their decision. Up to 10 million undecided voters could end up favouring Hillary Clinton for president after using the search engine.

Former Ontario Amish Farmers Find Paradise on PEI

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 19 hours ago
What the Amish operate is a form of natural community. Modernizing the natural community is central to my protocol for ending poverty globally. Some of what they do is unnecessary and some of what they need to do would be highly welcome. Ending poverty and converting global agriculture to organic sustainable systems are all part of a combined solution that ends all environmental abuse in the long term. The Amish are a long way down that road and most importantly they show us what it can actually look like. I am not entirely a fan of horse culture per se but they also preserve it... more »
