This is one of the most interesting and for me unexpected frontiers of modern science. It took me a while to track down Dr Pollack's credentials, and as many are sceptical of his work I thought to post them here too.
"Gerald Pollack maintains an active laboratory at the University of Washington in Seattle. He is the Founding Editor-in-Chief of WATER: A Multidisciplinary Research Journal; Executive Director of the Institute for Venture Science; co-founder of 4th-Phase Inc.; and founder of the Annual Conference on the Physics, Chemistry, and Biology of Water. He has received numerous honors including: the Prigogine Medal for Thermodynamics; the University of Washington Annual Faculty Lecturer; the NIH Director's Transformative Research Award; and the 1st Emoto Peace Prize. He is recognized internationally as an accomplished speaker and author." ... See MoreSee Less

I would like to know how many of you already know that the Great Pyramid sitting at 29.584 degrees north is almost spot on the 30 degree vertex of a vector equilibrium having vertices at the North and South poles ? (similar to Nassim's observation of the tetrahedrons vertexes being at 19.5).
It is easy to see that the ve has a vertex at 30 degrees above the equator when it has points at the poles as it is composed of hexagons.
These days the most popular Earth Grid is made from an icosa/dodeca grid, but apparently in 1946 Bucky Fuller patented an Earth map projected onto a cuboctahedron. Bruce Cathie apparently used a cuboctahedron in his Earth Grid. However the icosa/dodeca version has become so accepted I cannot find an image of the cuboctahedron version on the web. ...

I have quite a few friends who insist on as much as possible tuning their instruments to 432 cycles per second frequency, (very slightly below the 440 that we these days call 'concert pitch'). Here is a very well presented and sensible look at the argument for it, and I fully agree with his conclusion ... that it is your playing not your tuning that makes a difference and that all tunings per second are arbitrary and also not very accurate anyway.

As I understand it, the Holographic Universe Theory which is getting a lot of mainstream support in the last decade or two says that. like a hologram, the universe is the appearance of a 3d reality cast by the information stored on the 2d boundary of the universe. Personally, I think that it is higher dimensional reality being stepped down to 3d not the other way around, but that's the way the theory goes.
Considering how important holograms are to understanding what Nassim Haramein's 'Fraco-Holographic Unified Field Theory', I thought I should get a better grip on how holograms work.

In our recent book and presentations about the Javanese pyramid we focus quite a bit of attention on the bankruptcy of the Old Story and the crystallization of the New Story that has been happening over the last decades. I am pleased to discover that the wonderful visionaries of Findhorn have also discovered that this is a major realization that needs to be brought through for the evolution of humanity. Here is a 90 min movie they recently released.
Our slant on it is that the old story of hierarchy and exploitation in the western world is based on a history that goes back through the empires of Britain, Rome, Greece, Egypt, and Sumeria. Beyond this point the academic world calls it pre-history because there are no written records. However, in the last decades independent researchers have shown that there is an enormous amount of evidence for a previous cycle of civilization having been destroyed by coastal flooding at the end of the last 'ice age' around 12,000 years ago.

I would suggest that the existence of geometric alignments is to be expected, and that through wormhole subatomic connections as required in Nassim Haramein's Fracto Holographic Theory, there is no reason that the black holes should not influence each other over universal scales of distance. ...

Robert Schoch is the geologist who created quite a stir a few years back when he questioned how the enclosure of the sphinx could be so eroded by water in the middle of a desert. His theory is that the sphinx is AT LEAST 10,000 years old, many times older than is acceptable to the academic establishment, but very much in line with what other alternative researchers believe about there being a previous global culture before the sea level rise at the end of the last ice age.

Here is what I believe is a good assessment of the (strangely popular among conspiracy theorists) 'Flat Earth Theory', and it suggests that the whole thing is a psy-op by the bad guys. I note that wikipedia traces the movements origins to born again Christians around a century ago.
I have great trouble believing in conspiracies that require tens of thousands, if not millions, of people to be 'in on it'. If the Earth is flat then we might as well be living in 'The Truman Show' with Jim Carey where the whole world is a TV studio - but the question that remains unanswered is 'what lies beyond the studio?', 'what lies beyond the Matrix?', 'what is reality really?'
Personally I try not to believe ANYTHING. Ultimately I know that all my knowledge is conditioned by my senses and by my culture and karma, and therefore to defend my opinions through emotional attachment to them is to confuse myself. 'Occam's Razor' is a philosophical principle that - all other things being equal - the simplest explanation is likely to be true. I find it far simpler to think that the Earth is a sphere floating in infinite space than I do to think that the Earth is a flat disc floating in God only knows what - and that countless people have conspired using bizarre laws of physics to convince us of the 'Sphere Theory'. nexusilluminati.blogspot.com.au/2016/04/flat-earth-psy-op-is-real-conspiracy.html ...

If a torus is enclosed in a finite hyperspherical space then as it expands it will turn inside out and the hole will become the whole whilst the whole becomes the hole - watch carefully and you can see it happening. Therefore inside and outside, like left and right and clockwise and anticlockwise, depend on your frame of reference. From a higher perspective there is no inside or outside, no left or right, no clockwise or anticlockwise - all movement is relative. For some reason for me its easier to see the hole becoming the whole than the whole becoming the whole - do you agree ? If you dont get it try imagining this - two concentric small circles drawn on the surface of a sphere - expand them till they reach the size of the sphere and keep 'expanding' them till they contract on the other side of the sphere - the 'inner circle' will have become the 'outer circle' and visa versa. ...

The Greene Field Station is an open-air classroom of woodlands, streams, springs and marshes, where students and faculty study rare ecosystems, their flora and fauna, and the impact of invasive species.
Donated to Carroll by the family of Howard and Else Greene in 1969, the property includes more than 60 acres of wild wetlands in the glaciated landscape of the southern Kettle Moraine. The land is a gift, in many senses. And for generations, Carroll students and faculty have been stewards of its vital mission to research, protect, promote and educate, mining it for wisdom and seeking ways to safeguard it for future generations.
The research strengths of Carroll faculty continually drive new initiatives and experiential learning here. Carroll students participate in field investigations in ecology, botany, hydrology, animal behavior, climatology, and other disciplines. In addition to opportunities for outdoor laboratory and research activities, the Greene Field Station offers work experience for students interested in hands-on management of private resource conservancy sites. This site is jointly managed by Carroll's Environmental Science and Biology programs.

Epic Chairman L.A. Reid told the family it was regretful that a remix of the song "Karate Chop" by rapper Future, in which Lil Wayne likens the beating of African-American Till to sex, had been leaked on the Internet.
"He (Reid) apologised to me and our family and stated the song is being pulled," said a post on the Facebook page of the Mamie Till Mobley Memorial Foundation on Wednesday. Mobley, who died in 2003, was Till's mother.
The song reportedly first appeared online over the weekend.
"Mr Reid stated the song was leaked out and he had not heard the lyric," the statement added. "He is a man of integrity that values our family's legacy and wouldn't allow such a heinous usage of Emmett Till's name or dishonour his memory."
The foundation, which was founded by Till's cousin Airickca Gordon-Taylor, said that it had yet to hear from Lil Wayne.
Reid, an African American, is one of the music industry's highest-profile executives and was a judge on the Fox singing competition "The X Factor" for two seasons.
Till, from Chicago, was beaten and murdered in 1955 at the age of 14 for allegedly whistling at a white woman in the village of Money, Mississippi, where he was visiting family.
An all-white jury acquitted two white men of Till's murder, sparking national outrage. The trial is credited with mobilizing the civil rights movement and drawing attention to racial injustice and violence in the American South.
Epic Records called the song an "unauthorized remix" and promised to delete the reference from the official version.
"Out of respect for the legacy of Emmett Till and his family and the support of the Reverend Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. founder and president of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, we are going through great efforts to take down the unauthorized version," the record company said in a statement.
Epic Records is owned by Sony Music Entertainment.

Topic: Hello to All !
My name is Rhonda and I am Bob's wife. Bob is a very sick fellow right now, he is beginning to be treated for metastatic chlangiocarcinoma. Our adventure started with a emergency room run on New Years eve of 2004. He had pain that moved around some but was mostly in the right shoulder. I of course thought of a heart attack, he has had two prior heart attacks and is only 47. Well he did not have a heart attack, but they gave him pain meds and advised him to follow up with his primary doc. We got him an appointment and the doc ordered a full blood panel, because we didn't have any recent results. Tests showed extreme elevated liver enzyme levels, about 3x normal so we were refered to a gastronologist. Gastro doc preformed ERCP and pretty much immediately diagnosed cancer even without biopsy results in yet. We did get the results which confirmed cancer shortly after. We were then refered to the University of Cincinnati Hospital which has a pretty extensive heptobilliary dept. The surgeon we met with told us all the potential pitfalls of surgery but felt we should try due to my husbands age and general condition. On March 17, 2005 Bob had a whipple procedure, they did not touch his pancreas or liver. They did remove his gall bladder (which we were told was hardened by scar tissue) and a large part if not all of his common bileduct, they rerouted using small intestine to replace duct to liver. Bob did pretty well for awhile and then started chemo and radiation. He was on continuious infusion of 5FU and received injections of interferon as well as regular infusions of mitomyison. All the chemo and radiation was really rough for him he was hospitalized a couple of times during treatments and had to do neupogen a couple of times. He got through all that pretty well and only had to miss two treatments due to illness. Bob was pretty good for about a year then all the sudden it seemed like his enzymes got high again and he started to jaudice and get fevers. Bob had billary drains put in early last year, first only two and eventually three. The drains helped for awhile and all we had to do is keep up with the change schedule which is about every 8 weeks. Well right before Christmas Bob was sheduled for a change and instead of a change the Doc flushed out the drains and sent him home. Bob got sick all through X-mas he felt awful and looked awful and finally started a fever, I took him in through emergency and he was admitted for about three days. Mostly all they did was antibiotics and change tubes, the thought was that he had a infection. I took him home expecting him to gradually get better. Wrong answer! He was back in the er the following weekend with fever, throwing up and diarhea still as yellow as ever! He went in on a friday and they ran a MRI and did a Ultrasound and lots of blood work. On Monday they again checked his tubes by cholangiogram. I was available when the doc finished, but he was acting a little strange and didn't seem to want to deal with me, so I went home. I had sat all day to hear what was up, so I wasn't happy when I left. I got home and had a call on my machine from Bob to call him. The Doc after I left read his MRI and told Bob that it looked like the cancer was back and was now in his liver and peritoneum. He needed to confirm this info by biopsy, but he said it did not look good. I was really unhappy to say the least that this Doc dropped this bomb on Bob while he was alone. We talked it out and Bob was due for meds thankfully and could just go to sleep for the night. Biopsy was done the next day and confirmed cancer, more than one spot in liver and a large mass in abdomenal wall. Surgery is not an option, my husband's surgeon refered us back to his oncologist for chemo. That's where we are on the journey now. Bob is taking Tarceva orally and receiving regular infusions of Gemzar. He is an emotional wreck. I worry constantly that he doesn't have enough strenght to fight this fight again, he just doesnt have the reserves he did when he started down this road. I would appreciate any ideas to help me feed him with out triggering nausea,he will throw up even water at times. He feels really bad and looks worse any suggestions will be appreciated. I was amazed to find this site, I found it by accident! I was on the rare cancer site, but it seems like this is a more actively posting group. Bless You All,
Bob's Wife

Seventh Joshua Tree Vipassana-Metta Retreat
Friday March 16 - Sunday March 25, 2012
Dhamma Dena Vipassana Center at Joshua Tree California
The Practice: Tranquil Wisdom Insight meditation combines the practice of mindfulness with concentration in a seamless flow. Deepening comes when the meditator can easily keep the meditation object in mind. Joy and tranquility grows as the mind becomes more collected and calm. With these mental skills the meditator can investigate how phenomena occur in the mind and apply this investigation towards the problem of suffering and its cessation.
The Teacher: Ven. Bhante Vimalaramsi, an American monk who was ordained in the Theravada Buddhist tradition, has founded the American Forest Tradition at the Dhamma Sukha Meditation Center in Missouri. He has spent over 35 years practicing, studying and teaching the Buddha's way to cessation of suffering. More information about him and a large collection of his talks are available at dhammasukha.org
The Retreat: Dhamma Dena Vipassana Center at Joshua Tree California is in the high desert in a sparsely populated neighborhood. Ven. Bhante Vimalaramsi will give a Dhamma talk from the Suttas every evening and interview each participant daily in order to most effectively guide each student to maximize his/her progress and understanding. The Eight Precepts are kept during the retreat. There is an emphasis on lightheartedness, smiling and fun while doing this important work.
Contact: Antra Priede Berger or Mark Berger at 619-225-0817. Email [email protected]
Cost: Food and lodging: $420 for 10 days.
Meals: Vegetarian breakfast and a main meal at lunch time with tea and juices in the evening.
Lodging: 1-2 persons per room, accommodations are dependent on the mix of men and women enrolling in the retreat, maximum 20 people.
Tuition: Dana, a separate donation to the teacher/sangha.
Location: Dhamma Dena Center is 8 miles from Joshua Tree in the high desert, 45 minutes north of Palm Springs, California. Shuttle from the Palm Springs Airport can be arranged with the meditation center.

A Fateful Day
100 years ago today, America became a global military power.
A hundred years ago today, the United States declared war on the German Empire, entering the First World War on the side of Britain and France. It was an act that profoundly changed both the world and the country.
By 1917, the United States had been the world's foremost industrial power for more than a quarter of a century and its lead was growing steadily. With the outbreak of the war in 1914, New York swiftly succeeded London as the center of world finance. After almost a century and a half of being a debtor nation, the U.S. had become the world's greatest creditor nation, loaning the Allies billions of dollars and selling them war matériel in huge quantities.
But the country's foreign policy had long been one of isolation. With militarily weak countries to the north and south and the vast Atlantic and Pacific Oceans moating the east and west, the United States was immune to attack by a foreign power. Although the United States Navy–hardly more than a coast guard in 1880–had become by 1914 the third largest in the world, after only the Royal Navy and the German Kriegsmarine, the U.S. could afford to maintain only very small military forces.
In his Farewell Address of 1797, George Washington warned against the dangers of "entangling alliances." John Quincy Adams, perhaps the best Secretary of State in American history, said in a July 4th speech in 1821 that the United States "goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy." Yet, on April 6th, 1917, the United States did exactly that.
For the first time in American history, it intervened in a foreign conflict. The ostensible reason was Germany's return to a policy of unrestricted submarine warfare, sinking vessels of whatever flag that sought to supply Britain and France. Also the publication of the "Zimmerman telegram," which offered Mexico the return of its "lost provinces" if it were to attack the United States following the outbreak of war with Germany, had infuriated the American public.
Unquestionably, another reason was the fear that Britain and France might end up losing the war, making Germany the undisputed European hegemon and, of course, threatening their ability to repay American loans.
Germany knew that a return to unrestricted submarine warfare would likely bring about American entry into the war. But it was willing to gamble that by the time the United States could create, train, equip, and deploy an army large enough to be decisive, Britain and France would have been forced to negotiate for peace because of the disruption of their Atlantic lifelines.
Germany, of course, lost that gamble. But the United States, try as it might, could not return to its old isolation. The vindictive Versailles peace conference–badly mishandled by President Woodrow Wilson–and the withdrawal of the United States, the world's foremost economic and financial power, from world affairs ensured a renewal of the conflict in an even more terrible war twenty years later.
After the Second World War and the emergence of the threat of the Soviet Union, the United States, in its own self-interest, realized that it had no choice but to lead the world's democracies. It had to maintain very large military forces deployed around the world, as it has done at huge expense for the last 75 years.
Nor is there any sign that this burden can be lifted in the foreseeable future. The relative power of the United States has declined since the end of World War II, when it had about half the global GDP, as the other great powers recovered from the war and their economies expanded rapidly. But the United States is still in a class by itself as an economic and technological superpower and only it, like it or not, can play the role of the world's policeman.
We'll never know, of course, what would have happened had the United States stayed out of the First World War. But what we do know is that April 6, 1917, was a fateful day in both American and world history.
A Fateful Day
Must-Reads from Magazine
London Is Closed to Competition
Competition is a scary thing.
Soon after last summer's U.K. vote to leave the European Union, London Mayor Sadiq Khan launched a publicity campaign to reassure investors that his city would remain a dynamic, global hub after Brexit. "London Is Open" was the slogan, and it was supposed to "show the world that London remains entrepreneurial, international and full of creativity and possibility."
So much for that. Friday's decision by the city's transport regulator not to renew Uber's license suggests that Khan's London is closed to competition and in thrall to local special interests.
The regulator, Transport for London, said the decision was based on Uber's alleged lack of corporate responsibility in a variety of areas, particularly public safety. Yet there is no Uber-driven safety crisis in London. If Uber has made missteps, as any company might, putting 40,000 drivers out of work and inconveniencing 3.5 million London riders is a terrible way to respond.
Public safety is a pretext. The Uber ban comes after years of lobbying–and strikes and bullying–by the city's black-taxi cartel. Before Uber came along, the industry's high barriers to entry shielded black taxis from competition. It takes tens of thousands of pounds to buy a black cab and years to acquire "the knowledge"–drivers' vaunted ability to memorize and instantly recall the best way to any destination.
The advent of GPS and ride-sharing meant that having the knowledge wasn't all that special. Rather than try to outcompete Uber by offering better prices and service, the black taxis continued to charge outrageously overpriced fares. And they sought to defeat ride-sharing politically. Now they have succeeded. The losers are riders who used ride-sharing for fast, reliable, and accountable service.
The first black taxi I ever took, in 2014, took me from Heathrow Airport to Euston, in central London. It cost nearly £100 (or $170 at the time). That taught me early on to rely on my Uber app, and since then I have taken hundreds of rides. Defenders of the ban point to pre-booked minicab services and the like that often cost less or about the same as Uber. Yet none of those services offer the speed, ease, and pickup accuracy that Uber does. Black taxis don't routinely serve many low-income neighborhoods, moreover, whereas Uber works wherever people have smartphones.
If you leave a personal item in a black cab and pay cash, there is no way to recover it. With Uber and similar apps, you can immediately track down your driver, and he will usually return the item to you within hours. As for safety and sexual assault: Rachel Cunliffe pointed out in the Spectator that Uber is the far safer option for female riders, who don't have to trawl the streets looking for taxis. Every ride and every driver is tracked.
The Uber ban is the triumph of protectionism over innovation and clientelism over consumer choice. London is not open.
The Case for Kurdistan
A boon to America, the region, and the world.
The Kurds have been a people without a state for centuries. Monday's independence referendum in northern Iraq's Kurdish zone is an important step toward rectifying this historic injustice, and I believe the U.S. is making a grave mistake by opposing the vote.
The Trump administration announced its displeasure in a September 15 statement, noting that the referendum "is distracting from the effort to defeat ISIS and stabilize the liberated areas." It added: "Holding the referendum in disputed areas is particularly provocative and destabilizing." The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), the White House said, should work out its differences with Baghdad through dialogue.
Not now, go away, in other words. The statement reflected the sort of rigid adherence to Washington dogma that too often prevents America from seizing the opportunities presented by the tectonic shifts in the Middle East. The Trump administration failed even to nod at Kurdish aspirations, or offer an alternative timeline if the current moment is too inconvenient. This was unnecessary slap when there are compelling moral and strategic reasons for creating a Kurdish state in northern Iraq sooner than later.
The Kurds got by far the worst treatment during the decades of Baathist rule in Iraq. Saddam Hussein ethnically cleansed tens of thousands of them in the 1970s. Then, in the closing days of the Iran-Iraq War, he set out to destroy the Kurdish community. The regime fired chemical weapons at Kurdish civilians, summarily executed men and boys, and sent entire villages to concentration camps.
President George H.W. Bush's decision to impose a no-fly zone in 1991 granted Iraqi Kurds protection against Saddam's depredations and a measure of autonomy. The Kurds used the opening, and the one provided by the 2003 invasion, to develop institutions of self-government. Iraqi Kurds constitute a coherent nation. They stand out in a region full of non-nation-states in various stages of disintegration. Kurds speak a common language, albeit with regional variations. Most are Sunni Muslims, though there are Christians and even a very few Jews among them, as well. They have deep historical ties to their territory. Their culture sets them apart, visibly, from their neighbors. They have distinct national institutions. And they already enjoy quasi-state recognition in the corridors of power in Europe, the Middle East, and beyond.
Iraqi Kurds, moreover, share what Douglas Feith has described as the key subjective factor in nationhood: a "type of fellow feeling" that is "an extension of the affection people tend to have for their family members." Whatever their tribal differences—and these are real—Kurds living in Erbil or Dohuk today look upon other Kurds, not Iraqis, as their true compatriots. The bonds of Kurdish sympathy are much stronger and more enduring than those of Iraqi nationalism, if the latter means much at all.
Taken together, these factors mean that Iraqi Kurds are ripe for statehood. The Arabs have 22 states, and the Turks, Iranians, and Jews each have one—so why shouldn't the Kurds enjoy statehood? There is no good answer to this question.
Then, too, Iraqi Kurdistan is vibrant and free. In Erbil today, within an hour's drive from what used to be the second capital of the ISIS "caliphate," you can enjoy a beer, surf a largely unrestricted Internet, and criticize the government without having to fear death squads. You won't hear chants of "Death to America" or "Death to Israel" on the streets. There is corruption in the Kurdistan Regional Government, to be sure, and a degree of political nepotism that would make Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump blush. But by regional standards, KRG governance is more than acceptable.
An independent Kurdistan, moreover, will bear strategic fruit for the U.S. It could serve as a counterweight, however small, to Iranian hegemony. KRG leaders have taken a moderate, pragmatic line with all of their neighbors. That is wise policy, given the region's size and strength relative to the likes of Iran and Turkey. Even so, the introduction of a new, fully sovereign Kurdish actor would interrupt Tehran's so-called Shiite crescent stretching from Sanaa to Beirut. Today Iraq is trapped in the crescent. An independent Kurdistan wouldn't be. It would irk the mullahs still more if this new state turned out to be a democratic success story. Conversely, by blocking Kurdish aspirations, the U.S. is putting itself in the same camp as Iran.
Most important, friendship should mean something. Iraqi Kurdish forces fought valiantly alongside the U.S.-led anti-ISIS coalition. When the jihadist army seemed invincible, it was Kurdish fighters who stopped its march across Iraq (and Syria). As Kurdish intelligence chief Masrour Barzani told me in 2015, "In this entire area the Kurds are probably the most pro-American people that you can find. Forever we will be thankful for the U.S. support since the day of toppling Saddam's regime."
If Washington keeps neglecting and mistreating friends, America's credit rating in the region will suffer irreparable harm. Responsible, pro-American populations, like the Iraqi Kurds, deserve American support.
Joe Biden vs. the Post-Labor Left
The liberals strike back.
Given his reputation for favoring even wildly impractical progressive policy objectives, few might have guessed that the first prominent liberal to stand athwart the Democratic Party's reckless lurch to the left would be Joe Biden. With liberals fawning over progressive firebrands and amid the growing unanimity around the notion that there is no social and economic challenge that cannot be solved by throwing money at it, the former vice president has emerged as a vocal opponent of at least one idea popular among liberal reformers and libertarian technocrats alike: a universal basic income.
"The theory is that automation will result in so many lost jobs that the only plausible answer is some type of guaranteed government check with no strings attached," Biden wrote in a post for the University of Delaware's Biden Institute.
"While I appreciate concerns from Silicon Valley executives about what their innovations may do to American incomes, I believe they're selling American workers short," he continued. "Our children and grandchildren deserve the promise we've had: the skills to get ahead, the chance to earn a paycheck, and a steady job that rewards hard work."
Now, before we go congratulating Biden's attack on indolence and his tacit acknowledgment that material incentives to be productive have a better record than their alternatives, it's important to acknowledge that Biden may, in fact, be endorsing the traditional liberal position.
As far back as 2013, progressive activist and former MSNBC host Krystal Ball advocated the adoption of a "mincome" as a means of eliminating poverty. "The basic concept is simple," she continued. "Every non-incarcerated adult citizen gets a monthly check from the government," she said. But there's a catch: "Other safety net programs are jettisoned to pay, and poverty is eliminated." Just like that!
The problem with this proposition is the notion that progressive policy advocates would ever consent to the elimination of any anti-poverty program for any reason, particularly in order to pave the way for one that is "universal" (e.g., not directed toward uniquely threatened or preferred constituents).
"I'm not against a guaranteed income because I think that it would make the government too big," American University professor emerita and liberal economist Barbara Bergmann told PBS. "I think government ought to be much bigger." She noted, accurately, that the idea government could eliminate poverty and hardship by disbursing, say, $11,000 annually to every citizen is nonsense and doesn't take into account disparate needs. Given the political inclinations of the present Democratic Party, the notion that any candidate could successfully run on a platform that consists of paring back bloated entitlement programs is delusional.
As Oren Cass wrote for National Review, a "mincome" would soon take its rightful place in the pantheon of sprawling American welfare-state programs alongside Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act's provisions for individuals and corporations. Further, such a program would alter Americans' perceptions of their relationship to the state; for the first time in American history, the government would be transformed into every American's first and most essential source of well-being. And contrary to the protestations of UBI proponents, it would by necessity undermine the value of work and productivity. "Stripped of its essential role as the way to earn a living, work would instead be an activity one engaged in by choice, for enjoyment, or to afford nicer things," Cass noted.
For the social-justice left, there is one other attractive element to the UBI—one so subversive it is barely spoken above a whisper outside venues that care little for how they are perceived by the respectable sort. "In recent years, a UBI has been embraced in particular by the post-productivist left, which carries a strong feminist and ecological bent and rejects the traditional left's valorization of labor and the working class," wrote Jacobin Magazine's Shannon Ikebe.
She said there were actually two kinds of a UBI—the kind on which you can live comfortably and the kind on which you can't. She obviously prefers the latter. Her argument soon devolves into neo-Marxist prattle, blathering on about how an empowered working class free from the need to produce would create capital flight and divestment, increasing class divisions and, eventually, compelling us to reengage with "the age-old question of the ownership of the means of production." That's only relevant insofar as it provides a window into the thinking of the kind of politics that finds the UBI an attractive proposition.
It's a funny kind of Marxism that looks down its nose at labor and those who perform it. You can, however, see how that would appeal to Democrats who resent having to appeal to those backwater blue-collar voters who lost faith in the Democratic Party under Barack Obama or—to their eternal disgrace—voted for Trump. That's precisely the kind of mentality that Joe Biden (who is originally from Scranton, Pennsylvania, if you needed reminding) would dedicate himself to combatting.
The fight over a UBI is a fascinating glimpse at the sub rosa ideological battles being waged within the Democratic coalition. Biden's jab at the concept is, no doubt, self-interested, but it comes from a place of pride in the traditional American ethos of personal responsibility and industriousness. Unfortunately for him and those who would join him in this internecine fight, they are vastly outmanned.
Is Trump Turning It Around?
With Noah Rothman sadly out of commission for the day, Abe Greenwald and I discuss the president's speech at the UN (good!), the attacks on it (mostly bad!), why his polls have seen an uptick (less Trump!), who's crazier about health care (liberals!) and the evils of honey (yes, honey). Give a listen.

Aung San Suu Kyi Fooled Us All
Was it all an act?
When Myanmar's de facto leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, took to the lectern on Tuesday, she was speaking to us. Suu Kyi's silence as hundreds of thousands of Rohingya Muslims are driven from their homes amid a campaign of state-sponsored pogroms had been deafening. When Suu Kyi finally addressed the issue, she spoke in perfect English to the international community, but she was not being entirely honest.
Over the space of just weeks, at least 420,000 Rohingya civilians have fled their Rakhine State villages amid cycles of violence and counter-violence. Thousands more are trapped, besieged and surrounded by hostile Rakhine Buddhists and the government has denied their petitions for safe passage out of the area despite claims that supplies of food have dwindled to starvation levels. Hundreds have died either in transit or conflict, and the humanitarian conditions threaten to deteriorate further.
Suu Kyi insisted that it was not the intention of her government "to apportion blame or to abnegate responsibility." She observed that her regime has not yet been in power for a full 18 months and still has limited control over junta-led ministries like defense and border affairs. "After several months of seemingly quiet and peace, on 25 August, 30 police outposts . . . were attacked by armed groups," Suu Kyi added, apportioning blame. She bristled with indignation at international monitoring bodies that have focused only on the plight of local Muslims and not smaller minority groups that have also been made refugees and "of whose presence most of the world is totally unaware."
"Since 5 September, there have been no armed clashes, and there have been no clearance operations," she insisted, which is an outright lie, according to Suu Kyi's own information committee. She claimed the Rakhine Muslims have access to all essential and non-essential state services, but they do not. The Rohingya are denied citizenship and are clustered in camps when they are not fleeing to Bangladesh for their lives. "Myanmar does not fear international scrutiny," Suu Kyi insisted. While a handful of journalists have been allowed access, organizations like Doctors Without Borders say they have not had access to Rakhine State since August. Indeed, NGO staffers are afraid to travel to the region because Myanmar officials have accused humanitarian organizations of colluding with local militant groups.
Suu Kyi's prickliness amid allegations of brutality, prejudice, and ethnic cleansing is a bitter pill to swallow. Burma's democratization, culminating in Suu Kyi's release from house arrest and, eventually, her free election to serve as the head of a quasi-civilian government seemed like a genuine move toward liberalism.
That country's thaw appeared such a bright spot that Hillary Clinton cited her successful efforts to open Naypyidaw frequently in her quest for the Democratic nomination. "While the Arab Spring was losing its luster in the Middle East, Burma was giving the world new hope that it is indeed possible to transition peacefully from dictatorship to democracy," Clinton wrote in the chapter she dedicated to Myanmar's transition in her 2014 book, Hard Choices.
In 2011, Clinton traveled to Burma where she appeared beside Suu Kyi. "It was incredibly emotional and gratifying to see her free from the many years of house arrest," she said. For her part, Suu Kyi played the part of non-violent democratic resistance figure and pledged that "there will be no turning back from the road to democracy." Following a landslide victory for Suu Kyi and her democratic opposition in 2015, Clinton took her share of credit. "It was also an affirmation of the indispensable role the United States can and should play in the world as a champion of peace and progress," she said in a statement.
Clinton was in very good company in praising Suu Kyi as a leading light for the cause of freedom. "This is a fitting tribute to a courageous woman who speaks for freedom for all the people of Burma, and who speaks in such a way that she's a powerful voice in contrast to the junta that currently rules the country," President George W. Bush said signing a bipartisan bill awarding Suu Kyi the Congressional Gold Medal in 2008.
In 1991, she won the Nobel Peace Prize "for her non-violent struggle for democracy and human rights." Following her release from house arrest, she traveled the world lecturing as a Nobel laureate on the primacy of the rule of law and the necessity of democracy "for the guarantee of human rights." Today, she presides over what a Yale University Law School study claims amounts to genocide.
Maybe the pressures and political realities of running a democratizing state alongside a tenacious junta have been underappreciated, both by Suu Kyi and her detractors. Perhaps the facts on the ground tie her hands, and she must meekly defend the actions of her military as it commits atrocities against oppressed minorities. Either way, Aung San Suu Kyi is a crushing disappointment.

Hello. (First time to this forum.)
I don't know if this topic has been raised here before but if, please forgive my ignorance.
What is it with people painting over route grades leaving only the names at the base of routes.
To me, writing the name and grade at some SPORT crags seem pretty reasonable and helpful. I've been told that it is done to force people into buying published guides like at Boven. But Bronkies? Could it ever be big enough to justify a published guide?
I think that it looks ugly and is perhaps a bit petty
All respect and gratitude to crag finders. And I would have bought a Boven guide even if all the route grades were still on the rock. It is a splendid guide and Gus has done lots for the sport.

State gun laws fill enormous gaps that exist in our nation's federal laws, and help to reduce gun violence and keep citizens safe. In part because these laws help to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people and aid law enforcement in solving gun crimes, many of the states with the strongest gun laws also have the lowest gun death rates.
Because state laws differ widely, the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence and the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence have teamed up to evaluate and compare the laws of all fifty states. Together, we have ranked all fifty states based on thirty policy approaches to regulating guns and ammunition, such as: background checks on gun sales; reporting lost or stolen firearms; and prohibiting dangerous people from purchasing weapons.

My Take: It's Hard To Find The Words
EP Editorial Staff | July 19, 2013
By Jane Alexander, Deputy Editor
The last few months have taken a tragic toll on too many "teams," whether deployed in far-off, war-torn lands or working in operations closer to home. Just how many team members have we lost? How many families have suffered? How many dreams have been quashed? It's hard to count, isn't it?
Struck down by bullets, storms, explosions or other horrific events, those who gave their last full measure while striving to do their jobs—whatever they were—are true heroes. As a magazine that spends plenty of ink on the value of effective teamwork, MT salutes each and every one of them. Sadly, that includes noting the indescribable loss of 19 brave members of the Granite Mountain Hotshots team who died battling Arizona's Yarnell Hill wildfire on Sunday night, June 30, 2013. May their precious souls rest in peace.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families, friends and associates of all who have died in work-related capacities. This month, we ask that you join us in reflecting on and honoring in a meaningful way the memories and contributions of the many heroes who have been taken from our teams way too soon. MT

President Barack Obama has vowed the US would not be intimidated by the beheading of a second American reporter, but acknowledged the fight against the jihadists would take time.
Obama pledged that justice would be done to the Islamic State (IS) killers of 31-year-old reporter Steven Sotloff, wherever they hid and however long it took.
But he warned that eliminating the threat posed to the region by the group from its bases in Iraq and Syria would take time.
IS posted video footage on the internet of Sotloff's beheading, confirmed as authentic by Washington, which sparked outrage around the world.
It said the journalist's killing, which comes on the heels of the beheading last month of another US reporter, James Foley, was in retaliation for expanded US air strikes against its fighters in Iraq over the past week.
It warned a British hostage would be next unless London backs off from its support for Washington's air campaign.
Obama said the whole world had been repulsed by the barbarism of Sotloff's murder, but "we will not be intimidated".
"Those who make the mistake of harming Americans will learn that we will not forget and that our reach is long and that justice will be served," he said on Wednesday.
Obama said Washington was determined to halt the IS threat, but warned it would depend on close co-operation with partners in the region.
He has previously admitted that his administration has yet to develop a comprehensive strategy for tackling IS on both sides of the Iraq-Syria border.
Washington has ruled out any air strikes for now against IS fighters on the Syrian side, where they hold a large swathe of the east.
Obama has also ruled out any co-operation with the Damascus regime against IS, for fear that it would drive other Sunni rebel groups in Syria into alliance with the jihadists.
British Prime Minister David Cameron said the video depicted an "absolutely disgusting, despicable act" and convened a meeting of security chiefs to discuss how to tackle the IS threat.
The masked executioner in the video spoke with a London accent and claimed to be the same man, confirmed by UK security services as a Briton, who beheaded Foley.
"I'm back, Obama, and I'm back because of your arrogant foreign policy towards the Islamic State," the black-clad jihadist says, wielding a combat knife.
"So just as your missiles continue to strike the necks of our people, our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people," he declares, before reaching round to cut his captive's throat.
The militant condemns US air strikes against IS fighters around both Mosul Dam in the north and the Shi'ite Turkmen town of Amerli further south, which dates the video to the past week.
At the end of the five-minute video recording, the militant threatens another captive, identified as Briton David Cawthorne Haines.
"We take this opportunity to warn those governments that enter this evil alliance of America against the Islamic State to back off and leave our people alone," he says.
Britain has maintained a media silence about the kidnapping of aid worker Cawthorne Haines and there were few immediate details about when or how he was abducted.
In a statement, the Sotloff family, who live in Miami, said: "The family knows of this horrific tragedy and is grieving privately. There will be no public comment from the family during this difficult time."
After Foley's death, Sotloff's mother Shirley had addressed a video message to IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi pleading for her son's life, and insisting he had no influence on US policy.
Sotloff's former employers at Time and Foreign Policy paid tribute to a man widely respected for his intrepid reporting in Syria and the wider region, including a previous stint in Libya.
Hours after the posting of the video, the White House announced that Obama had authorised about 350 more US troops to beef up security at US diplomatic facilities and protect personnel in Baghdad.
