"Peace Comes to Korea: Let’s Understand Why"

noreply@blogger.com (Coyote Prime) at Running 'Cause I Can't Fly - 12 hours ago
*"Peace Comes to Korea: Let’s Understand Why"* by David Swanson "When peace shows its face, and weapons companies’ stocks plummet, we have to do more than just cheer. We have to avoid misunderstanding where peace comes from. We have to recognize the forces that want to destroy it. We have to work to make it last and expand. There’s something very twisted about the belief that the primary cause of tension between the United States and North Korea is what has reduced tension there. On a personal scale I think we could grasp this. If you yell insults and threats across the street at s... more »

greencrow at Greencrow As The Crow Flies - 12 hours ago
*Cannabis* I have spoken up many times on this blog about my opposition to the Trudeau Jr's government upcoming legalization of marijuana in Canada. It appears I am a small, actually microscopic, minority that maintains that the negatives far outweigh any positives that will come out of this legislation. As a former social worker, I saw up close and personal the ravages of marijuana addiction on young parents...all doped up....while the babies/children sat in front of the TV for hours being fed junk food.

Blood Is A Terrible Food Source - Yet Vampire Bats Thrive On It. Here's Why.

News Staff at Science 2.0 blogs - 12 hours ago
It sounds gross to humans - unless you read those "Twilight" books in which case maybe it's sexy - but a lot of animals consume blood. That's right, even your cat familiar. The question is why? Blood is actually a poor source of energy. It consists of 78 percent liquid and what is left is 93 percent proteins and only one percent carbohydrates (1). Blood provides very little in the way of vitamins. Not only that, a blood-based diet exposes animals to blood-borne pathogens. And yet some bat species (order *Chiroptera*) feed exclusively on blood and have managed to survive evolution... more »

Setting a Perjury Trap for Trump

Gaius Publius at DownWithTyranny! - 13 hours ago
*by Gaius Publius* A "perjury trap" is a prosecutorial maneuver and a form of entrapment in which "a prosecutor calls a witness to testify with the intent to base a perjury charge on their statements, not to indict them for a previous crime." If a prosecutor calls a witness for only that purpose, rather than to get information to further an investigation, the law is clear — it's forbidden. Perjury traps are most easily executed when the prosecutor has prior knowledge of the matter about which the witness is questioned but doesn't reveal having that knowledge. In practice perjury... more »

Forget North Korea: South Korea Could Someday Have Submarines Armed with Nuclear Weapons

Kyle Mizokami at The National Interest - 13 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * What would Pyongyang think? *South Korea’s rapid submarine buildup has developed a capable undersea force with nearly as many hulls as Japan. Construction of the latest generation submarines will provide the country with a fleet of powerful, flexible submarines capable of performing traditional attack submarine duties—and perhaps the job of nuclear deterrence.* One of the most underreported aspects of the Republic of Korea (ROK) armed forces is its submarine force. A relatively recent development, the ROK’s submarine arm is taking on increased impor... more »

Yamato and Iowa wouldn’t have stood turret-to-turret in an arena like a pair of heavyweight boxers. They would have been surrounded by cruisers, destroyers and subs.

Illinois: Talk about a hidden debt bomb!

Peter at Bayou Renaissance Man - 13 hours ago
In the past, I've written about the debt incurred by State governments, with particular reference to Illinois. Now comes news that the "visible" debt in that State may be matched by a similar amount held by school boards - but *not listed with other State debts*. Illinoisans hear plenty about the state’s ballooning pension debt, its billions in unpaid bills and rising bond debts. In fact, many even know about the local pension crises playing out in cities like Harvey and North Chicago. But most don’t know that the state’s 860 school districts have put Illinoisans on the hook for ...more »

"Nine Meals from Anarchy"

*"Nine Meals from Anarchy"* by Jeff Thomas "In 1906, Alfred Henry Lewis stated, “There are only nine meals between mankind and anarchy.” Since then, his observation has been echoed by people as disparate as Robert Heinlein and Leon Trotsky. The key here is that, unlike all other commodities, food is the one essential that cannot be postponed. If there were a shortage of, say, shoes, we could make do for months or even years. A shortage of gasoline would be worse, but we could survive it, through mass transport, or even walking, if necessary. But food is different. If there were an ... more »

When it first emerged, Ford defended the comments, and his position was initially defended by Progressive Conservative supporters under the impression it must be a carefully considered policy position.

"Tell Yourself..."

“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.” – Louise Erdrich

Iran Isn’t Violating the Nuclear Agreement — America Is

Darius Shahtahmasebi at - 14 hours ago
[image: undefined] On Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave his most grandiose anti-Iranian performance to date, revealing what he believed was direct proof that Iran “lied” about its nuclear program. This isn’t the first time Netanyahu has overhyped the threat of Iran’s non-existent nuclear weapons program. He has been crying wolf over Iran since as far back as 1992. The aim of this performance is to cast doubt on the efficacy of the Iranian nuclear accord signed in 2015, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which US President Donald ... more »

Nietzsche on What Preserves the Species

Anoop Verma at The Verma Report - 14 hours ago
Friedrich Nietzsche believed that *evil* is as vital for human flourishing as *good*. The fear of the evil prevents men from becoming complacent and lazy; it inspires them to develop better ideas and undertake powerful actions to subdue the forces of evil. When men are confronted by a great evil they have to fight with every means that is available to them—either they subdue the evil force or their society dies. The death of a weak society is a good thing because it frees up the space and resources for a better society to emerge. Here’s an interesting passage from Nietzsche’s *The ... more »

By law, on an annual basis and since 1983, the United States Department of State is required to submit a report to Congress which summarizes the voting patterns in the United Nations, an issue which is largely a concern given that nations receiving foreign aid from the U.S. vote against America's agenda in the United Nations. Let's look at the most recent iteration of the '*Voting Practices in the United Nations*" for 2017 which was released to the public in late April 2018 by the U.S. State Department.

U.S. Marine Corps Commander Neller: ‘We’re The Mujahideen’ In Afghanistan

War News Updates Editor at War News Updates - 15 hours ago
*Task & Purpose*: *Marine Corps Commandant: ‘We’re The Mujahideen’ In Afghanistan * Back in the 1980s, the United States considered the Mujahideen the “good guys” because they were waging a guerilla war against the Soviets Union in Afghanistan. Fast forward to the present and the Afghan Mujahideen are now widely viewed as the Islamic fundamentalists who eventually begat the Taliban, Al Qaeda, ISIS, and other folks who will hopefully meet their end at the business end of a MOAB.

How Big Pharma Controls Our Perception of Drug Safety and Effectiveness

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
Let us understand something completely beyond dispute. Rising disease rates of any kind must be by literal default be the result of artificial interventions. All natural interventions have either been eliminated or long since plateaued with the help of useful interventions. At most our problem with allergies is the result of too low exposure in the first place. We all know why folks succumb to obesity through overeating, although i also think that severe cases may well be the result of a nasty parasite interrupting the nutrient flow. A personal friend had runaway obesity. S... more »

Why All Diabetics Should Know About Turmeric

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
I will not waste my breathe asking you to change your diet as that is so obvious that only a sugar addition will keep you from taking action. The big news is that turmeric is powerful in postponing the effects. Thus a turmeric tea concoction is well worth entertaining and i do observe that a local coffee shop has launched just such a tea. I do use a blend of turmeric, ginger and black pepper but that is hardly more than a private concoction. Yet i do find so much of which i jump on soon shows up in the market so i am certainly not the only chap out there. . *Why All Diabeti... more »

[image: korea.PNG] Why this is important is similar to asking why the Canadian prairies were important to Canada in 1895. It takes a century, but building the transportation is the most important first step. As those who have read my posts know, it is possible to value add every square mile of the Earth's land surface. For example the boreal forest is a natural habitat for bull rush fodder production, pine nut production and related moose husbandry as well as multiple wild husbandries as well. This can include furs, but there are also plants and mushrooms as well little thought... more »

Poverty Forced Farmers in the "Good Old Days" To Sleep the Winter Away

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
*[image: peasant.PNG]* This aspect of a sustenance agricultural lifestyle is easily forgotten. Even with a cow the time demands in winter are low. It is only when you have a herd of milkers that the work load becomes onerous year long. That describes a thriving farmer producing a huge surplus in relation to personal needs. A dozen cows means you shovel manure and work with the cattle two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon at least. Most other agriculture has short periods of intense effort and long dormant periods. That is why most of these communities develope... more »

Blankenship was formerly referring to McConnell as "a swamp captain," so this is a decision to get more aggressive with the very disliked head of the DC establishment Republicans.
