I just read the best COLIN WILSON non-fiction book, PSYCHIC DETECTIVES! As you read stories of ARCHAEOLOGISTS who are able to have psychic takes on pot shards, on ancient man, or MEDIUMS who find criminals, bodies, you get this deep feeling of rising amazement: WOW THIS E.S.P stuff, these detectives solving crimes, these little English psychics, paranormal researchers, investigators are the real deal.
Well, that combo of fascination, faith and excitement somehow TRIGGERED a psychic state in this reader. I'm not kidding. It inspired me to be psychic, to have a psychic experience after reading it. I put the book down and as I started to doze, I instantly was inundated by voices saying things, confessing things. Fragments of audible sentences!
THIS NEVER happened to me ever! Well once. I heard a voice once, (I was mindlessly washing dishes,) it was saying "there will be a BIG earthquake". I put the collectible CHINA on the floor, warned my kids and a few astrology clients and voila, the BIG L.A QUAKE!
But this is the first time a book ever triggered psychic abilities. The writer is a famous guy in OCCULT circles. I remember, back in the mid50's when Colin Wilson was first discovered, called a genius, I read his first book. At age 25, he wrote a book called "The Outsider" England went nuts over him. Most unique was the man was self educated, he had researched the theme ( great artists who are bizarre or going the opposite way of society, ) in the reading rooms of the London museum and library. Though interesting, THE OUTSIDER is not his best book. THE NEXT FIFTY BOOKS WERE! It's just that the sober, serious subject made his fame. (famous authors who were outsiders, I guess like the odd looking Mr Wilson.!
After OUTSIDER, he began a lifetime of psychic investigation. He wrote science fiction briefly, MIND PARASITES was one of my faves, SPACE VAMPIRES very good, was made into a scary TOBE HOOPER movie. One SCI FI novel was it Mind parasites? was about ways to trigger SUPER INTELLECT. So he was writing about himself. Probably written before GINGKO brain FORMULAS got popular!
I remember being in LONDON once and just going into every used book store looking for old COLIN WILSON BOOKS. What else besides used bookstoress that is good there, Fish and Chips and INDIAN IMPORTS!
ANYWAY, the book I read that triggered E.S.P was PSYCHIC DETECTIVES, about the great English and European psychics, some MEDIUMS (like the TV SHOW the MEDIUM with Ms Arquette) some researchers. In it, he recounts all the DIFFERENT ways that the great psychics do their stuff. FOR INSTANCE, there are psychics who walk among archaeological digs, touch pot shards and can tell by psychometry how Ancient Man lived, made love, thousands of years ago, how they dressed, ate, cooked and who neanderthals were, (YIN BRAINED, he claims,) while CRO MAGNONS were YANG BRAINED!....
This book recounts the feats of psychics who touch the murdered person's bed linens, like in a room where they once lived.....and then, they can tell exactly where the body is located!
Well, I put book down, lay down in bed, fell into some kind of demi-stupor and instantly had two psychic experiences! Each more bizarre than the other, involving voices, words, confessions given to me!
Now, this must be my week for such stuff. An ODD SYNCHRONICITY: Not a week ago I had gone to bed, it was about dawn, or 7 am, I was not quite asleep. When a PSYCHIC PROMPTING HIT ME, --the feeling that I MUST get up and take some CO ENZYME Q 10. I never had such a strong feeling hit me and I have two dozen vitamins in the house, why that one? STILL I was in bed so I didn't and I couldn't imagine what made me have such a thought! Next day my most sensitive and psychic child, out of four, called and he said "this morning, I was thinking about your health, you need CO ENZYME Q TEN!...this pill, this vitamin" I had gone to bed at dawn as usual. SO our thought beams HAD VECTORED! I mean, SOME FORCE of NATURE made me want to get out of bed and go get some WEIRD SUBSTANCE off the shelf! I MEAN it was like being in the grip of your MOTHER IN LAW, that forceful. PS now I take it twice a day. Good as gold.
I have other stories that prove to me that psychic things exist. But take a look at "THE PSYCHIC DETECTIVES by Colin Wilson, "SOLVING crimes by ESP, Astonishing true cases of psychic phenomena" it says on its cover. Do a search on ABE BOOKSyou'll find many COLIN WILSON BOOKS, including many of this one, for a dollar. They have JEFFREY GOODMAN's PSYCHIC ARCHEOLOGY.THE BACK OF WILSON's book has a LIST of titles you can get used. I always order 2 different books at same time so the S&H is cheaper. Then I send the book vendor garden seeds so they cut me deals thereafter!They remember me via my hollyhocks and rainbow warty gourds!
Check up on this guy, make him part of your daily reading! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Wilson
ONLY ONE other author has sent me into these astral dimensions. I had another incidence of wild astral events back in 1967 after reading one of TUESDAY LOBSANG RAMPA's best book. "CHAPTERS OF LIFE" He also wrote DOCTOR FROM LLASHA, THE THIRD EYE and a dozen others...After reading Rampa's lesson on astral travelling, OFF I WENT. INTO THE WILD BLUE YONDER! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobsang_Rampa
SO, take a moment, try a little LIFESTYLE CHANGE, a little RX TO TONE UP your PSYCHIC POWERS, besides reading these inspiring books which will enable you to DEVELOP your ASTRAL MIND.
A.) Give up all YANG BRAIN STIMULANTS. More liver clogging LATTEs OR E.S.P? You CHOOSE!
B.) Zone out from time to time during the day. Zoning is good. It's when the INTERESTING stuff happens. Your YIN brain flips thru unexpected thoughts, impressions, finds an enlarged SEEING potential (compared to YANG brain.)
C.) Do YOGA basics so you can learn how to throw body energy up to third eye, lift it out of lower chakras.
d.) Lift your mind out of lower chakras all the time. You can't live in JERSEY and SWITZERLAND at the same time! DESIRE has to go.
e.) Practice. Send messages to friends. ODDBALL THINGS like 'lay's potato chips' to a pal on a diet. or 'you want to call me,' to the sweetie who won't talk to you. Or 'vision of SEAN CONNERY naked" to that PTA prude. YEAH that'll work ! When they're good and tormented, you call them and say, have you been craving Sean Connery in a bed of Lay's chips?
f.) Talk to animals. PRACTICE sending by sending pictures or thoughts that are NOT VERBAL....like animal sized messages. Practice sending from third eye region, -- reassuring pictures, you holding them, always taking care of them, or food pictures. You feeding them. And little pink hearts. Or send them BIRDS impressions of BIRDS flying by their head. See if they look around! And when you get real good, LISTEN to animals.
g.) read these URLS that I found by googling "Evidence that psychic phenomena exists" You can google up any combination of words. "PSYCHIC PHENOMENA" + the word 'exist.' http://www.21cmagazine.com/issue2/serpenttemple.html

Woodlands will target a Heavy Woollen double with their first and second teams to contest both finals at the end of August.
Woodlands Seconds edged a thrilling semi-final against Huddersfield League side Scholes to reach the Crowther Cup final, where they will face either New Farnley or Kirkburton on Bank Holiday Monday, August 28.
Last Sunday's semi-final was reduced to 25 overs per side due to a threat of rain but Woodlands were struggling on 129-6 after 21 overs.
Kieran Collins boosted the Woodlands innings as he smashed 50 not out off just 13 balls as they reached 182-6 at the close.
Scholes reached 99-3 but Woodlands fought back with two wickets in an over and, in a thrilling finale, Scholes required 19 to win off the last 10 balls.
Woodlands held their nerve and restricted the home side to 16 as they won by three runs.
Woodlands first team meet Hoylandswaine in the Heavy Woollen Cup final at Hanging Heaton on Sunday August 20.
Pudsey St Lawrence and Wakefield Thornes must replay their Black Sheep Yorkshire Champions Trophy semi-final after rain intervened last Sunday.
Thornes were going well at 54-1 off 13 overs in reply to St Lawrence's 154 all out when the heavens opened, seven overs short of the point where a result could be achieved under Duckworth Lewis.
Thornes left-arm spinners Steve Morgan (4-30) and Aqila Isanka (2-39) did the damage and helped reduce St Lawrence to a mediocre total.
There was a 53 minute delay before Thornes could start their innings and the visitors looked to score briskly to try and achieve a result with further bad weather forecast.
Richie Lamb dismissed James Wolfenden early on but David Toft — scorer of a magnificent 138 when the sides last played in Abu Dhabi in October — struck an unbeaten 37 before the rain returned to end play.
Former Woodlands batsman Duncan Snell hit a magnificent 160 as York defeated Harrogate by 114 runs on DLS in the second semi-final.

I started using this CLP after shot show this year and it is absolutely the best I have ever used. The lab tests speak for themselves but I was wary. I shoot a full auto M-16 in 5.45x39 and shoot a lot of corrosive ammo through it. This stuff is the only lube that will beat the corrosive salts.

The RP book is the first offering from the team at Renaissance Periodization. They are unique where they have a staff solely made up of people who have their PhD's in exercise or nutrition related fields. They have been taking the nutrition world by storm with their client results and their dedication to the science of nutrition.
If you haven't hired these guys to do a diet plan for you, or you cannot afford it (and let's face it, nutrition coaching isn't cheap because it is highly customized. I have seen their plans and they are very good), you are in luck because this book will help you in all aspects of setting up your own eating plan, why to do it, how and when to eat.
This book is written by Mike Israetel, Jen Case and Pat Hoffman. All three are college professors which should tell you the depth of the knowledge inside of this book.
The book's chapters are:
Foreword: A Guide and Starting Point
Chapter 1: The Dieting Principles and What They Mean
Chapter 2: Calorie Balance
Chapter 3: Macronutrients
Chapter 4: Nutrient Timing
Chapter 5: Food Composition
Chapter 6: Supplements
Chapter 7: Micronutrients and Water
Chapter 8: Nutritional Periodization
Chapter 9: Designing Your Diet
Chapter 10: Common Diet Myths and Fads
Closing: Using the Diet Principles to your Advantage
Chapter 11: BONUS "Trinity" Powerlifting Templates
In each of these chapters the authors go into great detail to explain the science behind this plan, how to implement it and how to set it up for your needs.
The only complaint I have with the setup is the fact they don't tell you how to find your own BMEE, they offer a chart which may or may not be exact, but I will be real here and say if that is the only complaint I have about this book, that is pretty damn good.
Stuff you will learn about their plan is as follows:
- How carbs, fats and proteins work in your body
- What carbs to eat when and why
- A primer on the GI index of carbs
- Why fiber is critical
- Setting up your meal plan to account for hard workouts, moderate ones and rest days
- The optimal amount of protein you should be consuming
- The types of fats in a diet and how much of each you want to eat
- Supplement suggestions which are backed with reasons why and not shit they sell
- When nutrient timing is important
- How to periodize your nutrition plan for long term success
- Lifestyle considerations for your eating plan
- Dietary myths and fads explained
- A sample lifting template
- ALL the important nutrition shit is referenced and hyperlinked with studies for the people that need it
This book is about as complete of a nutrition book you will need without adding recipes. I have read it three times so far and I am still learning something each time from it. Setting up your initial plan takes some work but it is well worth the time and effort for something that is critical for optimizing your performance and physique.
I would recommend getting your bodyfat accurately measured and perhaps doing a Bodpod to more accurately find your BMEE instead of just relying on a chart or a formula. After all it is your body, not someone else's.
If you can't do that, or won't, go by the chart in the book and tweak as needed.
I don't care if you like these guys, hate them, like Juggernaut or hate them, I receive no money for my reviews and I don't expect favors for doing one. As a coach/trainer I like to keep people informed of quality products on the market and this is definitely one of them.
The idea is to learn how to eat and if you want to do it yourself and you can hold yourself accountable to it, this IS the book for you.
Buy it here – http://www.store.jtsstrength.com/resources//the-renaissance-diet – it is only 37 bucks so don't bitch about it being too expensive. Suck it up and pay for it if you think it will help you.
Good luck and enjoy a quality book by extremely intelligent coaches.

Is Meijer Paying new hires more than current employees?
My nephew works at the Telegraph Road Meijer's in Southfield, Michigan. He tells me that the store manager is hiring new employees for more than current employees are making.

Gallery: Moxy Hotel — a hip, youthful, European brand — slated for Chattanooga's Southside
Moxie means energy and pep. It's a word that stems from the soft drink "Moxie" that reportedly outsold Coca-Cola in its 1920s' heyday and still has a loyal following in its home base, New England.
Energy is what Chattanooga hotel developer Hiren Desai hopes his new, four-story 102-room Moxy Hotel adds to Chattanooga's already booming Southside neighborhood.
Desai plans to break ground in March at King and Market streets for the boutique hotel brand that's part of Mariott International. Moxy launched in 2014 in Milan, Italy, and the brand is now in a handful of German cities, in Aberdeen, Scotland, and in two U.S. cities: Tempe, Ariz., and New Orleans, La.
"It's a big deal," said Desai, the CEO of 3H Group Hotels. "Moxy is new to the U.S."
Moxy Hotel is geared toward the millennial generation, he said. The emphasis is on a large, fun, communal first-floor space and smaller rooms upstairs with in-room storage for such items as bicycles.
"It's kind of edgy," Desai said. "The check-in is actually a bar. Before you get your key, you get a drink."
Instead of typical drip coffee, Moxy Hotel offers espresso and lattes at the bar for breakfast.
"It doesn't have too many luxuries; it has the necessities," he said. "It'll be a good fit for the Southside."
Desai will build the hotel on a former city-owned parking lot across from St. John's Restaurant. The hotel will have an outdoor patio that fronts Market Street. The hotel already has approval from city of Chattanooga staff through the city's new form-based code, said Alex Grace, principal of Grace Construction Consultants.
The Moxy Hotel brand plans to expand, including to European capitals such as London, Vienna and Oslo as well as in New York City, San Francisco and two other Tennessee cities: Memphis and Nashville.
Chattanooga had to prove its worth to Moxy Hotel officials, who visited the city three times before approving the brand coming here, Desai said.
Bob Doak, chief executive of the Chattanooga Convention and Visitor Bureau, is excited about Moxy Hotel coming to Chattanooga.
"I think it's one of the cooler brands I've seen in a long time," said Doak, who served as general manager of the nearby Chattanooga Choo Choo hotel complex before joining the tourism bureau in 2002. "I think it will fit here."
"It continues to show that this city stays on the cutting edge, whether it's technology, whether it's hotels, whether it's restaurants," he said. "We're seeing growth. Not every city can claim that."
The Chattanooga Moxy Hotel will take about a year to build, Desai said, so it should open in the spring of 2018.
It won't be Chattanooga's only new boutique hotel.
Just down Market Street, developer Marta Alter wants to renovate and reopen the former St. George Hotel as a 55-room boutique hotel by 2018.
Chattanooga hotel developer Mitch Patel is building the Edwin Hotel, an upscale, 90-room hotel on Walnut Street near the pedestrian bridge, that's due to open in the spring of this year.
Another investment group is proposing to remake the historic, 10-story Chattanooga Bank Building downtown into an Aloft Hotel — a trendy, boutique brand that will offer about 150 rooms and valet parking.
And the Read House, a landmark downtown hotel, has a new owner who plans a $20 million makeover that will embrace the Read House's history, including putting 1926-style furnishings to its alleged haunted room 311.
The competition doesn't phase Desai, who in the past year sold nine hotels, including four recent hotels for $47 million, and is investing some of that in Chattanooga.
"I think everybody has their own niche," said Desai, a 47-year-old married father to two boys. Desai was born in the African nation of Zambia and educated at boarding school in England before he moved to Chattanooga in 1987 to study economics and industrial management at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
Desai is bullish on the Southside.
He's a co-owner of the Edney Building at the corner of 11th and Market streets, an office building that's the so-called "hub" of Chattanooga's new Innovation District downtown. And Desai recently spent $2.1 million to a buy a three-story, brick building at 27 W. Main St. that held Chuck's II, a gay bar that was a pioneering business when it opened on the once-blighted Southside.
"I believe in the Southside," Desai said.
Desai hasn't yet decided what he'll do, long-term, with the building at 27 W. Main St. But in the short term, Desai may set up a model of a Moxy Hotel room inside one of the vacant storefronts, so passersby can see what Chattanooga's Moxy Hotel will look like.

Julius Malema disrupts Parliament and embarrasses the Nation
EFF's, Julius Malema embarrassed the nation this week, when he disrupted a session of Parliament by chanting "pay back the money" in the wake of President Zuma's failure to respond to a question. A scuffle then broke out, and the EFF people were ultimately removed from Parliament by the police.
Malema, dressed in his red overalls, was not happy with Zuma's reply to a question about when he was going to "pay back" part of the money spent on the R246 million security upgrades to his private Nkandla homestead in KwaZulu-Natal.
"I will throw you out of the house if you don't listen," Mbete shouted at EFF members, who responded by chanting "pay back the money".
Mbete eventually had to adjourn the House and call in security to help remove the EFF members.
While Zuma and MPs from other political parties left the chamber, EFF members remained, still chanting "pay back the money", and insisting they would not move.
EFF chief Whip Floyd Shivambu shouted at Mbete: "You won't remove us."


text: As an exercise, I'm working on putting together a simple physics and collision detection library for a video game and I'm looking for some advice on good Erlang architecture. Right now I have the concept of a cell which uses gen_event and acts as a sort of hub for physics processes to communicate. A physics process is spawned with a cell PID to talk to and uses timer:send_interval to send itself update messages at a certain resolution (ie: every 33ms for a 30 frames per second simulation). When it gets an update message, it applies physics calculations to get its new position and then sends a {moved, self(), NewPosition} message to the cell which uses gen_event to notify all the other interested physics processes. When a physics process gets a "moved" message, it can compare the EntityPosition with its own position to see if a collision has occurred and act accordingly. How is something like this usually handled in Erlang? Given that a simulation might have thousands of physics processes, is it bad that I'm using a timer for each one? Would it be better to have a single process with a single timer and a list of physics records to partition and update? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Our world is undergoing unprecedented change in terms of human history due to climate change. Although there's a lot of potential for mitigating climate change by reducing GHG emissions, deforestation, etc., it's also important to adapt to the changes that are already arriving.
Adaptation can take many forms (technical, social, etc.), but it will always require goals and plans to achieve them. This project will contribute to setting goals and making plans by helping people see how their lives -- and the lives of people around the world -- might be affected by climate change.
This project will contribute to that process by rewarding writers whose short stories (or "visions") will help us understand life in a climate-changed world. Those visions will appear in Life Plus 2 Meters (volume 2).
You can visit the Life Plus 2 Meters project here to download a free copy of the first book, Life Plus 2 Meters (volume 1), which has contributions from 27 authors. That book shows that there are talented writers with interesting ways of thinking about how climate change will affect our futures.
The funds raised from this Kickstarter will be combined with €300 of seed funding from my university (Leiden University College) to support prizes for authors submitting new visions to the Life Plus 2 Meters project. These visions will be published as Life Plus 2 Meters (volume 2).
Kickstarter funds (net of costs and KS fees) will fund four sets of prizes, each with first, second and third prizes:
- Storyteller vision, from any author
- Practitioner vision, from any author
- Best vision, for authors 25 years or younger.
- Best vision, for authors from economically developing countries (EDCs)
Rules: Authors can enter their vision for either storyteller OR Practitioner category. Under-26 and/or EDC authors can win in the main category OR in their own category (not both). These separate categories are to encourage entries from under-represented authors.
Prizes in each category will be allocated in first/second/third prize shares of 50/33/17 percent. Thus, $600 in total prize money would send $150 to each category, with $75 for first, $50 for second and $25 for third place.
All funds raised above the target (net of costs and fees) will go towards prizes.
Note: I will not make anything from this project. (I've spent about $300, but it's been worth it ;)
Winners will be determined by votes. Voters will come from backers that choose rewards that have votes and authors who contributed to Volume 1. (They cannot vote if they contribute to Volume 2.)
Bottom Line: You are supporting a project to reward the best authors of visions of (non) adaptation to life in a climate changed world. Thank you!
Risks and challenges
I have completed a successful kickstarter (see The WaterSmarts Calendar at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dzetland/the-2015-water-smarts-calender) and written one book that is available for free (see Living with Water Scarcity at http://livingwithwaterscarcity.com).
I have also bootstrapped Volume 1 of this project, as a demonstration of its potential.
I am confident that this project will deliver amazing stories to backers -- and the world.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

001. Hello and a big thank you to my first few followers! It's great to know there are some of you reading my rambles. Don't be shy to get in contact either here on twitter @behindthedoor51 as I'd love to speak to you.
002. This week has been spent visiting my mum near Chester. I don't get to see her very often so it's always nice the time we do spend together. I find my time here so relaxing , it's almost like my escape! I've spent the week relaxing by her pool, walking the doors and eating lots of naughty food.
003. We went shopping on Friday to Chester which I highly recommend a visit to if you every get the opportunity. The city itself is very unique with old Tudor style buildings which the shops are actually in. There's a great mix of shops and department stores so bound to be something that everyone likes. Zara is my shop of choice at the moment and being a sale and all it did not disappoint. I picked up a beautiful pair of structured navy shorts for my holiday for only £7.99 and a black floaty tank top with detailing on the back for £9.99, bargain! I could've spent a lot more but restrained myself!
004. I am loving how low maintenance my nails have been this week since having shellac put on. I originally had them done for my dads wedding last weekend but they seem to have lasted really well, I opted for a gorgeous glittery gold which complimented my nude dress perfectly. Usually my nails chip awfully and I'm having to repaint them every other day so this is a nice change. I'm thinking about having shellac done on my hands and toes before my holiday a vibrant coral always works well with a tan.
005. Being away has given me plenty of time to think and start putting plans into action. Over recent months I've been unsure where my future lies and what it is I want to be doing. I can't think of anything worse than being stuck in a mundane job I hate. Make up is my passion so I've decided to go for it and do a make up artistry course, I know the industry is competitive but its something I know I'll enjoy. I've been looking into a few courses around me and think I've chosen a course which suits my needs. I'm just working out funding as for a weeks course they can be very expensive along with kit etc, and hopefully will be starting within the next month. I am finally excited and looking forward to the future and the opportunities it shall bring!
Hope you have all had a lovely weekend :)

Lincoln Gordon, a diplomat, educator and political economist who was the American ambassador to Brazil in the Kennedy and Johnson administrations and the president of Johns Hopkins University in the late 1960s, died on Saturday at an assisted-living home near Washington. He was 96.
Dr. Gordon died at Collington Episcopal Life Care in Mitchellville, Md., where he had lived for the past two years, his son Robert said. He had been a Washington resident for many years and was still an active associate of the Brookings Institution there.
A scholarly, pipe-smoking economist who earned a doctorate at Oxford and was a Harvard professor for many years, Dr. Gordon was posted to Paris and London as an administrator of the Marshall Plan for European recovery after World War II. He served as the United States envoy to Brazil from 1961 to 1966 and was the president of Johns Hopkins from 1967 to 1971.
He was the author of books on government, the economy, energy and national security, foreign policy in Europe and Latin America, and Brazil's emergence from military dictatorships to partnership with the nations of North and South America. He also wrote many articles on North Atlantic Treaty Organization strategies, the integration of Europe and the Alliance for Progress in Latin America.
In a career split between academic appointments and government service, Dr. Gordon, a Democrat, taught business and international affairs at Harvard, served on the War Production Board during World War II and was later a consultant to the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission, a White House economics adviser and the assistant secretary of state for inter-American affairs.Continue reading the main story
Abraham Lincoln Gordon, who never used his first name, was born on Sept. 10, 1913, in New York to Bernard and Dorothy Lerner Gordon. His father was a lawyer and his mother moderated youth forums broadcast by NBC and for The New York Times on WQXR. He attended Ethical Culture schools, graduated with high honors from Harvard in 1933 and earned his doctorate as a Rhodes scholar in 1936.
In 1937, he married the former Allison Wright. She died in 1987. Besides his son Robert, of New Haven, he is survived by two daughters, Sally Gordon of Los Angeles and Amy Gordon of Gill, Mass.; another son, Hugh, of Ardmore, Pa.; seven grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
After the election of President John F. Kennedy in 1960, Dr. Gordon served on a task force that developed the Alliance for Progress, the program that provided aid intended to dissuade Latin America from revolution and socialism. Dr. Gordon took up the ambassadorship in Brazil in 1961 at a time of high inflation and just as a left-wing president, João Goulart, took office.
President Goulart was deposed in a right-wing military coup in 1964. Accusations that Dr. Gordon, his staff and the Central Intelligence Agency had been involved in the coup were repeatedly denied.
But in 1976, nearly a decade after stepping down as ambassador, Dr. Gordon acknowledged that the Johnson administration had been prepared to intervene militarily to prevent a leftist takeover of the government.
After returning from Brazil in 1967, Dr. Gordon, in addition to his State Department role, coordinated aid to Latin America through the Alliance for Progress. When he stepped down a year later to accept the Johns Hopkins presidency, President Lyndon B. Johnson praised his service as "a rare combination of experience and scholarship, idealism and practical judgment."
Dr. Gordon's four years at Johns Hopkins were dogged by deteriorating finances, faculty complaints over pay and academic priorities, and students rebellious over the "relevance" of their educations. He resigned in 1971.
From 1972 to 1975, Dr. Gordon was a fellow of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars at the Smithsonian Institution.
Later in the 1970s, he was associated with Resources for the Future, a research and policy organization in Washington, and since 1984 had been an economist with Brookings, which studies domestic and foreign policy issues.
His books include "A New Deal for Latin America" (1963), "Growth Policies and the International Order" (1979), "Energy Strategies for Developing Nations" (1981), "Eroding Empire: Western Relations with Eastern Europe" (1987) and "Brazil's Second Chance" (2001).Continue reading the main story

More On The Constutitionality Of The Super-Commission
Two legal eagles have commented on the constitutionality of the "super-commission" created by the debt deal, and have voted in the affirmative.
First, at Just Enrichment, Amanda Rice tackles an accusation that was made here on an earlier thread:
2) Article I, Section 7: "All bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives." 3) Article I, Section 8: "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States . . . ."
Ron Paul Is Wrong On The "Super Committee"
Here we go again, with the always-entertaining Ron Paul opening his mouth and spewing nonsense:
The 76-year-old retired OB-GYN, who is seeking the GOP presidential nomination again, said he was appalled at the ad hoc 12-member bipartisan committee devised to find further federal spending cuts before Thanksgiving, what he calls "this super Congress."
Palin Declares A (Qualified) Victory
Sarah Palin seems to have the right idea on the debt limit deal (emphasis in original):
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said Monday's House vote to lift the debt ceiling was a victory for the tea party, proving that conservative activists had shifted the conversation in Washington.
All These People Support Boehner's Plan
See how many "real conservatives" you see in this list from the American Spectator (I've cleaned up the formatting a little and added the link to John Bolton myself):
Allen West Supports Boehner Plan
…at least that's what The Weekly Standard is reporting, based on a Jamie Dupree tweet.
As Fred Barnes writes, it's not clear that there are enough Republican votes for John Boehner's new debt ceiling plan. But the speaker got a big boost on his right flank today from Congressman Allen West (R, Fla.). Jamie Dupree reports that West, an outspoken conservative and Tea Party favorite, is supporting Boehner's plan.
Not A Completely Novel Idea But One Worth Returning To
I received the below via email today and, as yet, have not checked the veracity of the claims on amendment passage and such. I've also removed the "pass it on" part simply because this is a blog, not an email. If you find merit in the ideas then feel free to "pass it on" as you wish. I have a quibble with the name of the "Act" and the use of the constitutional amendment process. I believe the original author intended for the bullet points to be a Constitutional Amendment instead of an "Act of Congress". As such, I ask for the reader to supply appropriate names for it.

|from bayonetta
Stolen tabernacle, inscribed with inverted Enochian and adapted as an angel-prison. Requires heavy occultum shielding or else leaked hieric radiation slowly transforms all nearby objects and creatures into perfect golden spheres
|from final fantasy
A puissant unanswered question, locked away behind an impossible cipher; allows a mech to run on ultra-efficient epistemological potential energy, but if anyone cracks the code or answers the question, the mech immediately shuts off.
Epistemological Array
Allows the mech to teleport, but only to the precise spot your opponent least expects. Frequently lands inexperienced pilots in the center of the sun.
|from bayonetta
Skeleton of an antediluvian giant, bleached with holy water and wired together with adamant. It's almost indestructible, but not quite as dead as one would hope.
The Wicker Man
Pagan-built mech chassis. It's fireproof, and in fact eternally burning, but the only fuel it takes is humans.
|from bayonetta
Lobotomized greenman; staggering healing ability allows implanted weapons to be incorporated just as easily as with a constructed chassis, but requires a huge amount of opium to maintain cooperation.
Aegis Ray
Medusa head mounted inside an optical device with rotating lenses; one magnifies, increasing area of effect but reducing range and petrification speed; the other focuses, creating a needle-thin, long-range beam of ultra telluric energy.
|from bayonetta
A thrice-blessed and thrice-burned vessel of aromatic wood; can be activated once per day to temporarily disable all non-divine magic in a short radius around the mech.
Paracelsian Contract
Legal documents penned in human blood allowing a mech pilot to call on elementals for service. The number of times they can be used depends on the clarity and quality of the contract's writing, as well as how much the pilot is willing to pay.
- Sylph are immaterial and non-violent, but they can be used for reconnaissance purposes. They require decadent confectionary and elaborate meals as their price--baby giraffe pâté, 1,000 perfectly fried hummingbird tongues, the broiled brain of an albino jaguar.
- Salamanders are hot enough to burn anything, and will swarm over and through an enemy mech at the signatory's request. They require horrific acts of arson in return for their service.
- Undine allow the mech pilot to travel safely underwater. They require wealth to be dropped into the deepest parts of the ocean, though they occasionally demand mass drownings
- Gnomes refuse to partake in this insanity.

45 Years Ago Today: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Final Major Public Address
45 years ago today—February 23, 1968—Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was the keynote speaker at a benefit, marking the 100th birthday of W. E. B. DuBois held at Carnegie Hall. In his tribute that night, King remarked that "Dr. DuBois has left us, but he has not died. The spirit of freedom is not buried in the grave of the valiant."
These words soon assumed added poignancy: On April 4, 1968, scarcely six weeks later, Dr. King was assassinated in Memphis. His speech at Carnegie Hall was his last major public address.
