The most important book I've read this year
Larry Ball carefully looks at one aspect of the financial crisis--the collapse of Lehman Brothers--and documents that the conventional narrative, as told by many of the leading policymakers who were there, is false. According to Ball, the Fed failed to act as lender of last resort when it could have, making the financial crisis worse than necessary. In other words, at a crucial moment, Bernanke and company did not summon the courage to act. For serious students of macroeconomic history, a must read.

Intermittent Fasting Fad May Increase Diabetes Risk
Intermittent fasting - fasting every other day - is guaranteed to lose weight in the short term, because it's a crash diet. But like lots of other fad diets, the people selling books about it are basing their speculation on animal models and an unrealistic amount of optimism. In biological reality, intermittent fasting impairs the action of sugar-regulating hormone, insulin, which may increase diabetes risk. Findings presented in the spring at at the European Society of Endocrinology annual meeting, suggest that fasting-based diets may be associated with long-term health risks an... more »

"The Traitor..."
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secret... more »

Greg Hunter, "Clinton Involved in Biggest Treason in History"
*"Clinton Involved in Biggest Treason in History"* By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com "Former CIA Officer and whistleblower Kevin Shipp says what Hillary Clinton did with her charity and Uranium One while she was Secretary of State was a crime for the history books. Shipp explains, “Hillary Clinton used this to launder money in foreign banks so it wasn’t subject to U.S. laws, congressional subpoenas or FOIA demands for the evidence. This was done to launder this money globally into the Clinton Foundation so the U.S. government could not examine it at all.” Special Prosecutor Robert ... more »
We need the 'Natural Guard'
If we are going to survive the ravages of climate change then all the world's militaries must be converted to do things like this. It is our primary hope for survival of the future generations. The military carbon bootprint is the biggest contributor to global warming. Years ago at the time of the signing of the Kyoto Protocols in 1997 (Bill Clinton's time as president) the US refused to sign the accords unless the Pentagon's contribution to climate change was excluded and kept as a state secret. In 2005 (during the reign of George W. Bush) the protocols became active. Since th... more »
