With a Stroke of a Pen, President Trump can Solve the Civil Servant Arrogance Problem

What a great photograph!
I came across this photograph on Gab. It shows a stream of molten lava landing on a black sand beach, presumably in Hawaii, where volcanic eruptions continue. Click the image for a larger view.

It's what we eat......
Art Milholland (Maryland) gave me this film to watch some time ago. I watched it and was blown away. It's a brilliant film and a courageous one at that. Come to find out animal agriculture is the biggest polluter on our Mother Earth. Even more than fossil fuel use. The filmmaker goes around and tries to get major environmental groups to acknowledge this point but they consistently refuse. Why? In the end how we eat has more to do with 'saving the Earth' than anything else. We all have the power to change. Thanks Art for the education and your persistence. Bruce

Ignoring His Colours
The Ontario Court of Appeal has decided that what Doug Ford did in the middle of Toronto's municipal election was unfair but not unconstitutional. Ford could have waited for the ruling. Instead, he chose to exercise the nuclear option. In the final analysis, the appellate court has underscored the first court's conclusion. The premier's judgment can't be trusted. Martin Regg Cohn writes: If the verdict was a vindication on constitutionality, there was precious little validation of the premier’s own judgment: His unilateral move to redraw Toronto’s electoral boundaries “disrupted t... more »
Stendhal’s Passages on Battle of Waterloo
The passages on the battle of Waterloo, narrated from the perspective of the young Italian aristocrat Fabrizio Del Dongo who is in search of his life’s purpose, are the most interesting elements in Stendhal’s *The Charterhouse of Parma*. Fabrizio is an idealist, he is inspired by Napoleon, but he is untrained in the arts of war. He tries to be brave in the front, but instead of displaying valor he ends up getting drunk and sleeping through much of the battle. Here’s an excerpt from Stendhal’s battle of Waterloo scene: *But the din at that moment became so terrific that Fabrizio co... more »

Today's award goes to Cathay Pacific, a Hong Kong-based airline. It seems they sent one of their Boeing 777's to get a new paint job. Unfortunately, someone (several someones, including the supervisor[s], I guess) couldn't spell. Cathay tweeted: Needless to say, people went overboard with their comments on the pictures. My favorite response was this one: You can read the others below Cathay's original tweet. I'll say this for the airline: it doesn't seem to mind poking fun at itself, and allows its fans to express their humor as well. Good for them. Peter
