In Canada, there has recently been a lot of noise about the new anti-spam law, CASL, or an "Act to promote the efficiency and adaptability of the Canadian economy by regulating certain activities that discourage reliance on electronic means of carrying our commercial activities." The CASL was passed in December 2010, is awaiting proclamation and should come into force shortly.
What many Quebec businesses don't realize is that email marketing is already regulated in Quebec under the "Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector," which has been in force since 1993.
Organizations conducting business in Quebec or collecting, using or disclosing personal information from Quebec residents must comply with this Quebec data protection law, which is substantially similar to the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), and therefore, applies to intra-provincial matters.
The legal framework regulating email marketing in Quebec is different than the CASL on certain issues:
Content of email marketing messages
Under both the CASL and the Quebec data protection law, businesses have to comply with rules governing commercial email messages that they send to their customers.
Under both laws, email marketers must identify themselves and inform individuals contacted of their rights to have their personal information deleted from their marketing lists. Under the CASL, businesses are also prohibited from sending emails containing false or misleading subject lines.
Under both laws, businesses must provide an email address where recipients can, at any time, opt out of the marketing messages and request that their personal information be deleted from the marketing database.
Under the CASL, the readily usable unsubscribe mechanism (a link or email address to reply to) must remain operative for 60 days. (This requirement is absent from the Quebec data protection law.)
Under the Quebec data protection law, businesses must comply with opt-out or deletion requests "with diligence," while the CASL is more specific on this issue, and provides that these opt-out requests must be complied with within 10 business days.
Consent requirements for businesses email marketing their existing clients
In Quebec, businesses may use a nominative list of their clients, members or employees without their prior consent for marketing purposes for "purposes of commercial or philanthropic prospection." Nominative lists contain personal information, such as people's names, telephone numbers, geographical addresses and electronic addresses.
Under the CASL, there is a similar requirement in the sense that businesses also do not have to obtain opt-in consent from their existing customers when contacting them. The CASL provides that an implied consent may be used in certain situations, for instance if the business already has an existing relationship – business or non-business – with a customer, which may be achieved through some type of transaction that has taken place in the two-year period prior to sending the message (such as a product sold to the recipient, a contract entered into between the business and the recipient, an inquiry made by the intended recipient within the previous six months, etc.).
Consent requirements for businesses email marketing potential clients
The Quebec data protection law doesn't define the term clients, so it is not clear whether the right to contact clients by email for marketing purposes includes the right to contact potential clients as well.
If we take the position that this term should be defined in a similar fashion as it is under the CASL (which defines what an existing client would be under this law), then the Quebec law would also not authorize cold-call marketing emailing, since the use of personal information (the email address) to communicate with a potential client would be subject to the general consent rule, i.e. the business would have the obtain the manifest consent of the potential client prior to using his or her personal information.
Under this scenario, the Quebec law would provide for a similar framework to that of the CASL, which promotes an express opt-in consent requirement in such cases.
According to the provisions of the CASL, unless the exceptions provided for by this law apply, or the relationship between the business and the recipient qualifies as an existing business or non-business relationship, Canadian businesses will be prohibited from sending commercial electronic messages unless the recipient has consented – by an express opt-in type consent – to receiving the message.
Sale of email marketing lists
The Quebec data protection law authorizes the transfer or the sale by a business of nominative or marketing lists to third parties, if certain requirements are complied with.
This means that businesses wishing to build a list of email addresses, to promote their new products or services, could at least benefit from the Quebec legal provision under which a business may, without the consent of the individuals concerned, communicate a nominative list of their clients (or any information used to establish such a list) to a third party.
This transfer or sale of lists of email addresses is subject to three requirements:
1) There must be a contract in place that prohibits a third party (receiving the list of email addresses) from using or communicating the marketing list for any purposes other than commercial or philanthropic prospection.
2) Prior to the communication, the individuals concerned shall be given a valid opportunity to refuse such a transfer (in cases where the list transferred is a nominative list of the organization's clients, members or employees).
3) The transfer of the marketing list shall not infringe upon the privacy of the individuals concerned. This requirement translates into businesses being able to contact potential customers (with whom they have had no prior business or non-business relationship) if the organization that provides them with the marketing list confirms having provided a valid opportunity for these individuals to object to the transfer, and if the marketing list does not include information that may infringe upon their privacy.
While it is not always clear in which situations the transfer of a list would infringe upon the individuals' privacy rights, there is case law that provides some guidance on the issue.
In one case involving a pharmacist, the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec took the position that the transfer by the pharmacist of a nominative list of his diabetic clients was a transfer in breach of the Quebec law.
Businesses that intend to promote their products and services by email across Canada will have to familiarize themselves with the various applicable laws and their different penalties for non-compliance.
For Quebec, the relevant legal framework includes the Quebec data protection law for the private sector. In addition, this law provides for more flexibility on certain issues than the CASL will.

I avoided playing the demo when it became available. Partly, because I knew I was going to pre-order the game and I didn't want to spoil any of the magic that the trailer had started casting on me. Also, because the fan reactions to the demo weren't very positive. A lot of static concerned alterations to the control scheme, which turned out to be default settings that could be changed. But a certain amount of (perhaps fanboy) vehemence was aimed at the forced use of the new dog fighting 'feature' of the game which allows you to engage in a (sometimes cinematic) on-rails type chase sequence that relies less on your piloting skill and more on your ability to keep your reticle on the bogey in front of you. Fans seemed to be afraid that the Ace Combat series had crossed the line and become too, in a word, 'arcadey'. Last night, I rolled the game off the tarmac to see for myself.
I've not played any of the Call of Duty games, but my understanding is that this iteration in the Ace Combat series is definitely playing to that (substantial) fan base. I imagine that most of the changes in player interactivity can be found in the CoD games. First, the game is not the story of an unseen ace pilot. This time, the story seems to split between at least three pilots, one for each of the major aircraft types in the game. The first mission, the tutorial Miami Beach stage from the demo, is actually a dream sequence. Consequently, it borrows the rpg trope of starting the player with all the cool powers and equipment (F-22 in this case) and then taking it away when the real game gets started. As it is the tutorial mission, there are specific tasks the player must do to advance the mission (rudder left – check; rudder right – check; etc.) which is a touch annoying when replaying the mission. It also introduces the new dog fighting mode (DFM) which has to be used on the many enemy lead planes in the mission. The DFM is used to great cinematic effect, pulling your plane low through the Miami beachfront properties, the enemies spamming flares and otherwise unkillable until passing the scripted checkpoints. Partially on rails it may be, but I thought it was a lot of fun. The sense of speed and the tentatively bridled chaos of the ride is part of what I've enjoyed in the more recent Ace Combat games. Now, maybe this DFM thing will grow old by the end of the game, but there seems to be enough skill involved staying on your prey's tail that it might actually improve the standard bank and chase tactic that was so prevalent in the older games.
The DFM also has a layer or two of complexity to it. It's available against all planes, if you wish to engage at close distance, and seems to be required against enemy aces. And while it seems to make taking down your target easier, it's not a sure thing. Once you are on an enemy's six, it makes you more vulnerable should his wingman come to his aid, forcing you to break off your pursuit to evade missiles. The enemy is also able to perform an evasive maneuver if you close too tight, allowing them to reverse your roles. Of course, if you time it correctly, you can follow the maneuver, effectively countering it and painting massive damage on the enemy fuselage with your machine gun. Conversely, enemy aircraft can engage you in DFM, forcing you to shake them off or slow down enough to perform your own Crazy Ivan. Perhaps the game is stepping towards turning combat into a glorified quick time event, but so far, it just feels fun.
After the completion of the first mission, the game segues into the opening credits and has you ride gunner on a blackhawk, picking off rebels as the names of the design team appear around your periphery. Pretty cool, and again with the CoD vibe.
Between missions (so far) the game jumps right back to the story. While mostly in third person, the camera occasionally swings into the first person perspective of your pilot, often allowing you to look around your environment while walking through the barracks. Then, you are picking your craft for the next mission and trying to read the load screen tips. Perhaps it is just my tv, but this is one of those games that uses a font that is almost illegible on a standard definition television. I plan to fiddle some more with the contrast settings, because the text is crisp as it is fading away. But when in full display, it is really hard to read. The beloved pre-mission sitreps are gone. There's just a list of the aircraft available for the next mission. A button press will take you to your hanger so you can gaze at the aircraft model, but so far no store. Granted, I think I'm still in the introduction levels (tutorial, title, jet, helicopter, gunship) so perhaps after I complete the gunship mission things will open up a bit.
Not sure about the helicopter stage yet. Mostly, because it's new and I don't have a good handle on the chopper controls. Not that they are difficult, but I need to invert my vertical axis on my gun sight, and maybe bump the sensitivity, if it will go higher. I do like the low altitude mission, and actually being able to use rocket canisters to great effect, but it did get a little repetitive, and it is definitely tricky trying to find human targets in the landscape. I expect that the level design will get more complex later in the game, and once I've attained a level of copter piloting skill on par with that of flying jets I'm hoping that the helicopter stages will be as fun.
I peaked at the multiplayer setup, and the game has an experience system that unlocks various skills that can be set to your aircraft for various missions (coop) and battles. I noticed that the third paint schemes for a given aircraft are unlocked by earning a certain number of points while flying it in multiplayer. Not sure how much I like that, since my gold membership expires at the end of this month. What I am hoping for, however, is that the tweaks they've made to the online system are founded on the lessons learned from other games to provide a robust and engaging experience that attracts and maintains a solid player base. That way when I do get to pop on during free live weekends there are still plenty of furrballs to dive into.
In short, so far, while it is different, it is still Ace Combat, and it is still fun. I'm looking forward to my next sortie.

> Small Brown Bird, With Paler Breast, Very Few Slightly Darker Markings In Its Back
20-Oct-2015 09:55
On behalf of Polly who sent in an email .....
I have a small brown bird, with paler breast, very few slightly darker markings in its back. Head is similar to a robin, black beak which is straight and thin and pointed. About the size of a sparrow but not with any markings like it. This is on our balcony in Somerset
Any ideas what it can be?

In 1536, the north rose up in the largest revolt between the Wars of the Roses and the English Civil War. Robert Aske, one of the leaders of that revolt, declared later under interrogation that one of his concerns was the succession: he said, under interrogation, that
he and al wise men of those partes then grodged at [28 Henry VIII c. 7] and that for diverss causes. On was that befor that estatut, sith the Conquiror, never King declared his Will of the crowne of this realme, nor never was ther known in this realme no such lawAske was reflecting on one of the most controversial legal changes of Henry VIII's reign. In 1534, 1536 and 1544 Henry passed three succession acts. Three acts which attempted to will the crown to a particular descendent.
Eric Ives in an article in the journal Historical Research describes the acts. The 1534 act was not particularly radical as all it did was recognise that Henry had married a new wife and that his old marriage was illegitimate: it merely entrenched the reformation (the merely is partly ironical). However in 1536 and 1544 Henry went further. He not merely declared that his marriage to Aragon (and Boleyn) were invalid: he also said that after the demise of his first legitimate heir- Edward- he was able to set the succession. In 1536 he left it at that: and we are left to surmise who he meant. Ives guesses that he wished to place Richmond his son by Bessie Blount and then Elizabeth and Mary on the throne. Ives argues that the act was a nudge aimed at James V of Scotland, Henry's nephew. In 1544, after Richmond's death, the second act made the succession more explicit and this time we can see how it was aimed. Henry reasserted that he could establish the succession. Contrary to common law, he opted that after Edward the succession would not go to the first legitimate heir- James V- but would go to his basterd daughters- Elizabeth and Mary and after them would go to the heirs of his youngest sister Mary- the Grays.
This had vast consequences running through the centuries. Most immediately it set a pattern of confused successions which ran up until 1603. When Edward died in 1553, he left no heir. Edward nominated Jane Grey to succeed him- arguing that his father had made Mary illegitimate and that he might therefore will the crown to Jane. Jane and Mary for nine days battled it out and Mary eventually won becoming queen. In 1553 when she made her own birth legitimate- repealing the act declaring that Catherine of Aragon and Henry were not married, Mary was unable to repeal the act declaring Elizabeth her heir. The Lords and Commons, Sir William Paget told her, would not accept such a repeal. So Mary died too without issue and left the throne to Elizabeth. Elizabeth too disliked the act. Both her and Mary claimed they inherited the crown naturally and not by the 1544 act: and Elizabeth too sought to shut out the next in line- the Grey family. Elizabeth waited on the matter without deciding what to do and in the end James rather than the Greys succeeded. In 1553, 1558 and 1603 the absense of a straightforward succession and the availability of two methods of succession (common law and Henry's acts) caused confusion.
More especially though it led to something else. Henry's acts proceeded from the crown to Parliament and the Commons and Lords recognised what Henry had done. In 1553, if Ives is right, they prevented Mary changing the succession acts to stop Elizabeth. Just as importantly during Elizabeth's reign on two occasions Parliament decided that it faced a situation where Elizabeth might die: if she died the establishment decided that a Parliament would have to be calleed to invalidate the succession of her heir presumptive- the Catholic Mary Queen of Scots. As a constitutional precedent therefore Henry's act was important to the Bond of Association of 1585, and was discussed even as late as the exclusion crisis in 1679-81. Henry's acts though were invalidated by the Stuart succession of 1603- James became King, whereas Henry would have intended Edward Seymour to succeed Elizabeth. Furthermore lawyers echoed the judgement of Robert Aske. Sir Matthew Hale concluded that the experiment of Henry's acts had never worked and so were not noteworthy in England's constitutional history.
Ives shows that Hale was wrong. The experiments are noteworthy. Without Henry's act, neither Mary (1553-8) nor Elizabeth (1558-1603) might have become Queen. Elizabeth in particular is a key monarch in British history: it is afterall her Church of England that survives and she was the first supreme governor of that Church (Henry was the supreme Head). Furthermore Henry's act, just as the Reformation acts, established that Parliament was the arena in which such matters might be discussed. Ives's article reasserts their importance in the constitutional revolutions of the 16th Century and thus is to be welcomed.

The University of Houston has accepted an invitation to play in the 2012 TicketCity Bowl, school and bowl officials announced on Sunday afternoon.
The Cougars (12-1, 8-0 C-USA) will play the Penn State University Nittany Lions(9-3, 6-2 Big Ten) at the Cotton Bowl Stadium at 11 a.m. on January 2 in Dallas. The game will be televised on ESPNU.
"I know our team is excited about this matchup and really appreciate having a chance to play in front of our fans one more time," Head Coach Kevin Sumlin said. "Our fans have been tremendous all season. We broke the attendance record at Robertson Stadium and to play against Penn State in a great venue such as the Cotton Bowl will bring back some special memories for our university."
Houston is no stranger to playing January games at the Cotton Bowl. The Cougars won the 1976 and 1979 Cotton Bowls and also played in the 1978 and 1984 events. It will also mark Houston's third all-time meeting with Penn State. The Nittany Lions are 2-0 vs. UH. Penn State won 24-7 at Rice Stadium on Nov. 14, 1964, and 31-14 in State College, Pa., on Sept. 17, 1977.
"I certainly want to thank Tom Starr and everyone at the TicketCity Bowl for this great opportunity," Director of Athletics Mack Rhoades said. "This will be a first-class event for our student-athletes our coaching staff and our fans. To have an opportunity to send this senior class off with one more game in thestate of Texas, at a historic venue like the Cotton Bowl, is a great way tothank our fans for all they have meant to us during this record-breaking season."
The Houston Athletics Ticket Office will begin taking orders for the 2012 TicketCity Bowl online later this evening. Fans are encouraged to order their tickets through UH Athletics as this directly benefits the Houston program. Houston has been allotted 10,000 tickets for this game at the $75 price level and the entire allotment will be located behind the Cougar bench. Due to the $75 pricing option, UH Athletics will once again have an option for fans to donate to allow Houston students to attend the game at a discounted price.
Orders will be taken immediately and seating allocation begins after Dec. 12. Seatlocations will be based on the Cougar Pride priority points system. Fans can also order in person at the Athletics Alumni Center and by phone at 713-GO-COOGSstarting at 8 a.m. CT on Monday.
Houston Athletics is also working on special student ticketing and travel options for the Jan. 2 contest. More information will be available later in the week.
Houston is making its 20th appearance in a bowl game and third under Kevin Sumlin. The Cougars faced Air Force in the 2008 and 2009 Armed Forces Bowl,winning 34-28 in 2008. Current Cougar Bryce Beall was the MVP of that 2008 victory.

One would assume by now that people would be more open to the idea of Atheism in 2010. However, it is not the common thread. Instead, the U.S. welcomed the idea of having a president of color. I say of color because many individuals would argue to label Obama as African-American is denouncing his European Ancestry. Second, it would be the same defense that Thomas Jefferson used when referring to Benjamin Banneker. He felt that it was Banneker's mixed heritage that made it possible for him to…Continue

CHICAGO - Concluding a three-month sting investigation, the FBI has arrested a 22-year-old Chicago man accused of placing a backpack that he thought contained a bomb near a busy street corner in the city.
The FBI says Sami Samir Hassoun, a permanent resident alien from Lebanon, was arrested early Sunday morning, immediately after he put the backpack into a curbside trash can. There was no bomb inside. Instead, it contained an inert, look-alike device provided to him by a man who turned out to be an FBI undercover agent.
"There was no indication that any foreign or domestic terror groups were in any way connected to this plot" or were an inspiration for Hassoun, the FBI says.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
According to investigators, Hassoun began saying in May that he wanted to commit a violent act, partly to get money from groups willing to pay someone who would set off a bomb and partly to bring down the current mayor. The person he talked to was an FBI informant who says Hassoun talked big — about staging a biological attack, or poisoning Lake Michigan, or bombing the Sears (or Willis) Tower, maybe even assassinating the mayor.
In July, the undercover agent began meeting with him, claiming to be from California and able to get explosives. Hassoun, the FBI says, eventually decided to put a bomb outside a nightclub in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood.
Justice Department officials say Hassoun was under continuing surveillance. He never had any actual explosives, though he appears not to have been short on swagger. Court documents say he proposed installing a new mayor who could be "bought off and managed."

No sign of 'freedom' for Kiwi taxpayers, yet!
so what will it be, the environment or a job and a home?
"By 2025 GDP will fall by almost $6 billion, household spending will be down by $3000 per household and hourly wage rates will be down by $2.30 in today's prices."
With New Zealand the only country in the world known to be including agriculture in an emissions trading scheme, the rural economy would be particularly hard hit, Layton added.
"Because it is so far-reaching, covering all sectors and all gases, the ETS-plus could also cause a range of unintended adverse environmental consequences unless response measures are put in place to address them," the institute says.
Liarbour trying to buy votes with our money, again!
Anothe Nail But Why Be Coy?
What is so frustrating is that nowhere can I find the actual figures from the poll. I'd like to know how ACT and the Maori Party are polling. Further, I'd like to see ALL the figures with last month's figures alongside.
We are told that 'undecideds' are polling at 6%. Where were they last month? Are they swinging to National or Labour? (By my calcs, if 65% of the undecideds go National in the polling booth, then National's margin over Labour would increase by 1.8 percentage points.)
It looks as though we may be heading for a decisive FFP result.
John Armstrong reckons this poll has just about killed off any chance Cullen has to get some releif from his upcoming budget.
".........Budget Day is the one day Labour will have voters' undivided attention. If the polls don't budge, then what? The load on Cullen's shoulders just got heavier."
Governments to blame for 'the coming economic meltdown.'
It seems quite a lot and much debate is now emerging over how the 'success' of government in restricting supply, is causing what others claim is 'market failure'.
Yes, both energy and food markets are seeing a huge increase in demand from India and China, both to fuel their growing economies and to better feed their richer palettes, as they seek a more 'Western' diet.
But if government regulations restrict supply, then what?
Obvious a commodity becomes scarce and its price will rocket.
This is true whether it is oil, rice, or as we have seen in other debates, land and housing.
Over at Not PC, Peter Cresswell notes how government restrictions on oil supplies, with large areas of the US 'off limits' to oil exploration' is preventing the market from meeting the demand for extra fuel.
Had the market being allowed to supply the extra demand from India and China, oil prices would not have risen to $100 or more a barrel.
It's not a failure of markets, it's an obvious success of government: success in stifling production of the very stuff of industrial life, and in burying the ability of producers to respond to price signals in the way they need to.
The same applies to global food markets, where in some countries governments are now banning the exports of foodstuffs, thus depriving farmers the chance to make the best return and deterring them from increasing production.
Creswell links to other surveys and reports saying as much.
Indeed, I have come across a worthy article from The Intellectual Conservative, which refers to government and energy's role in 'the coming economic meltdown.'.
Government policy over the last several decades in all fields of energy production has had the direct impact of restraining energy supply while demand has grown.
As these policies have impoverished the United States they have enriched Middle East, African and Venezuelan oil suppliers.
In addition, this policy has undermined the security of the United States by weakening the United States economically, destabilizing the LDCs (lesser develope countries) by food shortages, and through direct payment "leakage" to terrorist organizations.
Indeed, a full read of the article will also note the folly of following many so-called 'green' policies.
Not only are such policies fuelling recession and inflation, as their higher costs take money and spending power out of the pockets of workers/consumers, they typically have as many or more environmental drawbacks than traditional policies.
So when in New Zealand, Liarbour plans an emissions trading regime, look at how it will hit you and your employers' pocket.

State-run media talks recession
Musings from Murapara
Over the holiday weekend I had the pleasure of visiting Murapara, about 40 minutes drive south-east of Rotorua.
My friend wanted to catch up with whanau, so why not.
The road to town on wide straight roads built for forestry was fast and as you arrive into town, you see a fine sitting of forest clad hills, a river, and potential for tourism.
But the township? Oh what a shit hole! It makes Kaikohe look like Remeura.
As we drove past the roughest of wooden bungalows, with paint peeling from the outside, we saw a car racing around with a Maori sovereignty flag on it. Well, if Tuhoe want independence, let them have it, and WINZ can cut the money tap off too.
We approached 'uncles' house, one of the roughest on the street, with even more peeling paint. Uncle was there, and was having steak and eggs with his missus. The wallpaper was peeling off too. It was shabby to say the least the least. And they have about 4 kids too.
Outside, a grey kitten limped between the abandonned cars and in the garage, two 'cuzzies' were getting stoned. Well, they faced a long bus ride from Rotovegas to Wellington that afternoon, so maybe getting wasted would help them face the ride. Dad didn't mind they were doing this, he said they were, and his young teenage daughter was happily smoking cigarettes in front of him.
I looked back at the streetscape outside. Shabby houses , half with satellite tv. Now either aerial tv reception is poor or sky tv is very popular. People also sat on the decks outside their homes and unlike, sy Auckland or Orewa, kids actuallyplayed in the streets.
Soon after I asked Uncle about what work there was for him on Murapara. He replied he didn't work, his job was to look after the kids. I didn't ask if that was the wife's job, who incidentally had just bought a $900 from Vodafone and claimed billing problems with it.
Anyway, the two cuzzies needed a ride into town. While uncle had what probably was the flashest car in town, a late model Holden V8, we did the honours with my mate driving and the cuzzies smoking dope on the way. I kept the window open to avoid getting stoned as well.
Well, Murupara certainly feels another country to New Zealand, even to Rotorua. And uncle's place was quite a contrast to staying in the Heritage, where we went soon after the bus stop drop-off.
Heading back to Auckland, we stopped off at another cuzzies, who lived in Hamilton buy a busy junction. The shabby unit had a broken window and five kids played in the garden, sectioned off by a metal fence. The mother looked old for he 30 or so years, but her kid number 5 was on its way. The father looked quite stapping in his black singlet. There was no word of work for either, just my mate noting his cousin was just 'popping out babies.'
Later that day, I told my mate's brother about his uncle having such a flash car when the house was a wreck. "Must have been a good harvest'" he replied, obviously not referring to wine or grain. And among the books lying in his house was a well-worn copy of Maori Heroes by Alan Duff, which noted a former acting-PM of NZ was Maori. So hopefully some family members get a different message.
Yes Maori can achieve like the rest of us, but so many, Pakehas too, need a kick up the backside.
As I reported a few months back with a similar trip up north:
"People do not succeed or fail because they are Maori or whatever. They succeed or fail because of their own efforts or lack of them and how they apply themselves in life. And if there is any party or government that can spread this message, it can only be good for all New Zealanders."
And that applies to all those suffering poverty, brown or white. The answer and responsibility for their predicament lies within themselves and with government for allowing such fecklessness.
The answer to child poverty is not a $4 billion programme as touted by campaigners but rather a revolution in attitudes and policy.
John Boy gets it right, again!
Growing child poverty under Liarbour

In case hard times befall Cactus Kate
Look what the Ministers received today!
The Danish civil war and genocide of European muslims
Late last week, I posted about future scenarios of muslim domination of Europe and the USA, which are attracting the attention of novelists.
I was quite flattered to receive responses from one of those novelists, Tom Kratman, who has just published a book 'Caliphate' on the issue.
Of course, it will be interesting to see if Hollywood ever develops the balls to turn any of the books into movies, or will they be too scared to, or do such books offend their PC sensibilities?
Anyway, will the world turn out the way these novelists imagine and fear? Is there an alternative? There could well be, but this alternative is not a happy scenario either.
Over at the Gates of Vienna, we see a post outlining how indigenous Europeans might have to remove the muslims from Europe and in the article 'surrender, genocide or what', the future looks bloody
Little Green Footballs accuses Gates of Vienna of 'genocidal porn' for even considering the issue, also responding with a psychonalytical view. Gates of Vienna denies advocating genocide and it has led to further discord between the two blogs.
This latest post at Gates of Vienna follows an earlier post late last year in which the author El Ingles outlined a possible scenario for a future civil war in Denmark.
Both makes interesting reads, not that I'm advocating genocide either. But both posts outline the grim prospects ahead for Europe.
Of course, there is always surrender as Brude Bawer outlines is already happening from a combination of both political correctness and fear, in a post LGF posted today, so obviously no nasty talk of genocide here.
Our new best friends the Chinese
Hate to sound like Winston Peters.
But the violent reactions to opponents from some of the pro-China demonstrations, which may have been organised by its government, leaves me fealing a little uneasy.
To think we have several thousand ethnic Chinese with such strong ties to the motherland that they will protest and some will turn violent to those who support a free Tibet.
And there was similar violence from Pro-communist Chinese in Canberra too.
Crusader Rabbit recently noted how Chinese 'heavies' were allowed into Australia.
And yes, there was violence from the pro-China demonstrators, with involvement from the Communist regime strobngly suspected?
While the bulk of our Asian immigrants will be decent law abiding folk with much to offer New Zealand, how many might be a fifth column to ultimately cause our downfall? I'm sure I'm not alone in fearing what seems like organised Communist trouble in our corner of the world, amid our 'benign strategic environment.'
PS. In the meantime the Chinese are allowed to buy Vector for $785 million, which somehow aint strategic. But Cullen will break international law and deny $1.7 billion to shareholders of Auckland International Airport to stop those evil Canadians from owning a share.
UPDATE: And Bernard Hickey notes Dear Leader will have to choose between hypocracy in accepting the deal and stupidity in turning it down, with Bernard opting for hypocracy.
UPDATE2: The Briefing Room links to an Investigate story with revealing stuff about the new owner of Vector.

David Finally sees the light on Hussein Obama
On one side, you have a bitch who is a lawyer, married to a lawyer, and a lawyer who is married to a bitch who is a lawyer.
Union boss attacks Liabour on lack of taxcuts
In one of those flying pig moments, we see a union leader attacking Liarbour over the lack of taxcuts.
EPMU boss Andrew Little has slammed Cullen for "dithering" over taxcuts.
One week the government was saying the cuts would take place this year, and then the next week it was suggesting they would be next year.
"People are looking for some sort of relief now. People need it, and the government should understand that very clearly."
The comments come as the EPMU also backing National over John Key's fibre-to-the-home plan.
Now, please remind me, which political party Andrew Little was meant to aspire to be its president.
Or is is just a 'red herring' and Little is now finding Key's National Party muc more amenal and discredited than Helen's tired old bunch of socialists. Perhaps he ha noted his own members fleeing from Liabour in droves.
Perhaps, if the EPMU is allowed to register as a third party under the EFA, it might be working against Liarbour rather than with it!
A most unfortunate government logo
The new logo for The UK Office of Government Commerce was unveiled yesterday to much delight... followed by much embarrassment when one thoughtful worker turned their head 90 degrees and noticed that it looks like... well - look for yourself.
How very appropriate for the Liarbour Party or perhaps a fictional Organisation of Government Campaigners.
Hat Tip: Barnsley Bill
Class Action Against Labour - Woopeee!
It turns out Treasury made it crystal clear to Cullen that his proposed action in blocking the sale was (a) unjustified on logical or economic grounds; and (b) was damaging to NZ's reputation and the future governance of the Airport company itself and (c) would result in a massive loss to shareholders. Here's what they said to this flea brained history teacher.
"If that's not enough, Treasury also noted Government intervention in this sale process would arbitrarily change the property rights of existing shareholders, which may cause both domestic and foreign investors to be sceptical about the certainty of New Zealand's regulatory environment and therefore be more wary about investing in Kiwi firms.
But the crucial factor as far as the NZX is concerned is that Treasury also noted the Auckland Airport share price was likely to drop immediately following an announcement and existing shareholders were likely to see the Government as responsible for the immediate loss in value of their shares and as such, "potentially liable for the full difference between the new share price and the full value of the CPPIB offer"."Adolf calculates that loss to be in the vicinity of $1.7 billion dollars.
That's the fiscal time bomb Shady Cullen is leaving for John Key to fund, when the government has to pay out the shareholders.
As corporate crooks and other thieves go, Shady Cullen makes Ron Bryers look like a saint.

Liarbour's "Rich Prick."
Politics would certainly be duller without Liarbour Party President Mike Williams.
The Weekend Herald's Michele Hewitson produces a fine profile on the confused and loose chappie.
As well as spotting some more 'confusion', David Farrar lists a few other roles Mike performs in addition to his Party role, giving the 'rich prick' an income of more than $180,000.
Of course, it all helps when you have 'mates' in government.
Hat Tip: Kiwiblog
Rocketing food prices
The Weekend Herald has performed a fine piece of journalism including much original research by looking at growing food prices.
It has discovered supermarket food prices for an "average" trolley have gone up 29% in the last year.
This, David Farrar notes, is more than the official food price index, which is weighted to what people actually buy, but both the official and the unofficial surveys show that food inflation is strong and growing.
Of course, much can be put down to the biofuels balls-up as government's try to be 'green', and rely less on imported oil.
But growing fuel prices also impact on growing food prices, not just because food often needs to be transported.
It certainly makes a mockery of planned government-led fuel price rises for emissions trading regimes, and allowing regional councils to impose petrol taxes.
Thus, Liarbour has a double whammy in store for us. Higher fuel prices which in turn will mean even dearer food.
Six of the best for Dear Leader
A deliciously delightful serving of six spankings for Dear Leader from the Saturday papers.
1- Fairfax Poll in the Dominion Post having National 18% in front.
2- The same poll reporting one in ten Kiwis eyeing up Aussie. So on top of the growing kiwi exodus which the Double Standard was playing down this week, we see Kiwis increasingly considering the ultimate act by voting with their feet against Dear Leader and her government.
3- A scathing and sarcastic editorial against Liarbour in today's Dom-Post.
Granny Herald also praises John Key.
4- Colin James noting how John Key is taking the lead and is a man of the future by promoting broadman while Liarbour is the party of the past, wanting instead to buy back rail.
5- Fran O'Sullivan says Key's safety first leadership is paying off, though he needs to show more leadership to defeat Clark and reverse the country's continuing decline.
6- And Liarbour wouldn't be Liarbour without a bit of corruption within a ministry- this time Immigration.
Happy ANZAC Weekend Helen!

The Iraq Mess Worsens - For The Democrats
We see the latest of those today with the major Sunni block moving back into the political mainstream. Note also a very small piece in the NYT. (Greater prominence was given to some apparent criticism of George Bush by John McCain.)
Of course these moves were the very things the defeatist Democrats were demanding as signs of success in Iraq, back when they never believed such moves could ever happen. Now that these 'benchmarks' have been met you can rely on the duplicitous, despicable Democrats and their international handmaidens to dream up a new batch of unreachable benchmarks.
It is beyond their feeble minds and moral dishonesty to admit the reality that all along George W Bush might have been right.
Had it been up to this bunch of modern day Democrats, the US would have shrugged its shoulders in December 1941 and offered to give the Japanese a free hand in the South Pacific. After all, that's in Japan's back yard, not America's, so why not just leave them to do their own thing?
For the fallen
Can't let an ANZAC Day go by without raining on the right's "They died for freedom" parade. These guys went through stuff we'll never even have to imagine, so let's do them the respect of not glorifying what it was about. Here's a prayer you won't hear this morning:
Here's to the soldiers. All of them. The ones who died and the ones who lived. The ones from NZ and from every other country, from the ANZACs to the Waffen SS, who got sent off to kill and be killed in misery and squalour because their bosses were greedy, stupid or overly loyal when it comes to sacrificing someone else's life for the local hegemon.
In NZ, we remember our brave men whose lives were thrown away because the British Empire was competing with some other empire in some part of the world we have no interest in – places like
Let us remember, and be smarter next time.

Alternate realities offer strong ANZAC message
Like "Gulliver's Travels", "The Flying Inn" is both a serious social comment and a lot of fun. There's a reason it's still in print after all these years," said one reviewer.
The open society and its enemies
Edgar's complaint seems to be that when leftwingers criticise some aspect of the left, they then jump the centre and head straight for the right. Well, it's easy to name examples where that's true, but really what Edgar is arguing is that unless you sign up to his vision of the left, you have by definition joined the ranks of the right."
It's all very well calling yourself progressive, David, but whatever happened to progress?"
Others believe in the truth instead.
Therefore to the left, those people are 'right-wing'.
Therefore truth is actually a right-wing concept.
Therefore truth is evil.Therefore truth has to be relabelled lies while lies of course remain unchallengeable truth."
"It is no exaggeration to say that, since the vast majority of the media and intellectual class in Britain are on the left, this mindset has quite simply poisoned British public debate and brought us to our current state of suicidal irrationality in the face of an unprecedented global threat."
Indeed, as a follow up to a recent post when I referred to the facism of the left, I was attacked over it. On other occassions I have been branded a facist myself.
The reality of an Obama presidency
"Four significant public policy changes are certain: the size, scope and spending of the federal government will substantially expand; income taxes will go up; protectionism will replace free trade; and a commitment to global internationalism will saddle America with a broad Kyoto global warming agreement that, according to the U.N. Climate Treaty Secretariat, should exempt China and India.
Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have proposed increasing annual federal spending, respectively, by $226 billion and $303 billion – the Obama total being about a 10% increase. Neither of them as president would likely limit any spending – not entitlements, not earmarks, not farm subsidies."
Mr. Obama is near victory in the Democratic contest, but it is time for him to reset, freshen his message and say something new. His conduct in the last several weeks raises questions about whether, for all his talents, he is ready to be president", Rove conludes.
Blessed little cherub finds God, Maori culture and freedom
Slumping so fast- even the Reserve Bank notices!!
"There is a risk that wage settlements respond to these short term price shocks rather than adjusting to the changing economic conditions, thus perpetuating inflation pressures," Dr Bollard said.
Over time, the weaker economy would ease accumulated pressure on resources and reduce inflation pressures, but the labour market was still strong and New Zealand's key international commodity prices remained high. Government spending plans and the possibility of personal tax cuts could also be expected to limit the economic slowdown.
Consumption grew faster than incomes and faster than the economy's productive capacity, propelled by the wealth effect from an exceptionally strong housing boom.
But they point to factors that might make this cycle different and inflation more persistent, especially in sectors immune from competitive pressure. Among them are the impact of fuel surcharges, the emissions trading scheme and relentlessly rising local body rates.
Not even a Perky Nana republic!

Ice Age ahoy! as global warming runs into a (sun) spot of bother
Is 'Sir Humphrey' at Number 10?
Helen, the would-be kitty killer!!!
Don't we know? Mickey knows best!
Treasury has obviously had another one of its 'ideological burps' in supporting the Canadian bid to buy 40% of Auckland International Airport.
So what if Treasury reported the sale would 'breach international agreements, scare foreign investors and damage the economy.'
What do those experts in Treasury know that our history professor does not about the world economy? We cannot have grubby foreigners buying our 'strategic assets' unless they are Chinese wanting to buy our Vector power company and we Kiwis must still be able to buy foreign airports like Infratil owns in Prestwick, Scotland.
We must listen to Dear Michael, who has such a fine record of economic management, that has given kiwis burgeoning wealth and prosperity, and left government finances in such a sound, fiscally prudent state, with much better public services all round :)
Some champion! Some award!
The last set of greenhouse gas figures, before the election, was released this week, and NZ is 26% over its Kyoto target. By comparison Australia and the UK are on target to meet their target.
Now Labour in defence says that okay we may have an appalling actual record, but we do have some good policy. But what is the record:
*Biofuels legislation slammed by Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment
*Tradeable Emissions scheme legislation slammed as near useless by Greenpeace
*The deforestation disaster
*The Fart tax debacle (the issue wasn't that it was a tax so much as the hypocrisy of taxing for carbon debits and not letting farmers share in carbon credits)
One other such winner was, of course, proven liar Al Gore.
Of course, how seriously can we take the United Nations? Not much. Especially its Human Rights Council, which in recent weeks has called for an official study into the role of 'neocons' in causing 9-11, following the appointment of 9-11 'troofer' Richard Fall.
The HRC , backed by its Islamist members, recently called for a curtailment of freedom of expression, particularly where criticism of Islam was concerned.
And in case you're wondering, this Human Rights Council contains such members as Egypt, Angola, Qatar, China, Russia, Cubia and Saudi Arabia- all noted for their fine records on human rights, personal redom, etc, etc.
But there again, considering how she behaves in government, Dear Leader is getting recognition from ideological bedfellows, bedfellows she undoubtedly will feel at home working for, hopefully quite soon!
Update: I thought the news had a familiar ring to it. The announcement was actually in January and Dear Leaer should have accepted her prize in Singapore this week. But we can enjoy more such fun in New Zealand on June 5, when the UN's World Environment Day stages its main celebration in Wellingon..
Update 2: David Farrar notes New Zealand's record is worse than that of George Bush and John Howard. Even the Greens and other lefties aren't impressed.

Friendly handover
Every year in June, the sleepy Swiss city of Basel radically transforms into an international art scene hub.
When it comes to Art Basel (June 12–18), no simile is too strong. What the UK's Daily Telegraph calls "the Olympics of the art world" is "a mecca" to art dealer Kenny Schachter, who thinks every collector and gallerist "physically and financially able to" should make the trip at least once in their life because buying art at Art Basel is tantamount to a religious act.
A proper ceremony requires patience. That's why Art Basel opens with a breakfast first thing Monday morning. For famous auctioneer Simon de Pury, collecting art is "an obsession, an incurable addiction." So just imagine the torment suffered by the 500 or so invited guests as they are led through the exhibition hall onto the patio, unable to glimpse a single work of art or break through the line of attractive young guards, before indulging in abundant Champagne, raspberries and the latest rumors about artists and gallery owners.
When Art Basel first opened in 1970, the only other art fair was Germany's Art Cologne. Today, there are dozens competing all over the world. But since Art Basel concentrated more on quality than quantity, its importance grew. "Ninety-nine percent of all gallerists who have ever exhibited at the fair want to come back," is Hamburg collector Harald Falckenberg's estimation. Still, the number of exhibitors has remained around 300 for the past 47 years. That's why even giant galleries such as Hauser & Wirth, Larry Gagosian and David Zwirner have to reapply for a spot every year. In contrast, the number of visitors has risen steadily; these days, some 100 000, unperturbed by the admission fee of 50 Swiss francs (47 euros), flock to Basel every year, briefly tripling its population of 200 000.
They pay for the privilege of purchasing art – and even then, admission is granted only on the last four days of the week-long fair. Monday through Wednesday, Art Basel is reserved for the VIPs, and selecting them is a year-round job. Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio, Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich and hedge fund billionaire Steve Cohen have all been to Art Basel. Venerable big-time collectors, such as Americans Mera and Don Rubell, Nicoletta Fiorucci from Italy and Friedrich Christian "Mick" Flick from Germany are regulars.
After the VIP breakfast, everyone proceeds to the opening of Liste, a fair for young and emerging artists held at Werkraum Warteck pp in a former brewery close by. The wait for a taxi or for Uber can be long during the fair, and even the limousine service hardly helps, so most people walk, and thanks to numerous high heels, in a rather sedate procession. The rest of the year, the yellow-brick Warteck building – a warren of corridors, stairways and niches – is home to local artists' studios. If you're lucky, you will find yourself at the bottom of the staircase to the Turmstübli tower bar, where, squeezed in with a hundred others, you can catch impressive views of the city: south, across the Rhine and east, to the Roche Tower, Switzerland's tallest (178-meter) skyscraper. Triangular and tapering on one side, it seems inspired by a lump of cheese. Like the new exhibition hall, the Museum of Cultures and the Laurenz Foundation's Schaulager art warehouse, it is the work of Swiss star architects Herzog & de Meuron.
Art Basel and Liste are held on the right bank of the Rhine, across the river from the quaint old town. That is also where the Parcours fringe program is held, featuring sculptures, videos and performances, all put together by Basel curator Samuel Leuenberger. He brings all his contacts into play so that visitors can enter the city's oldest grammar school and oldest private garden, where art almost becomes a sideline. To keep the visitors on their toes and allow the locals to catch an eyeful of their extravagant outfits, the pilgrims are shepherded back after the Liste opening to the exhibition site, where Art Unlimited opens on the Monday afternoon. It's a special space reserved for works of especially large format, such as a multi-part video installation or an original-size replica of a patio centered around a pool.
Art Basel proper begins on the Tuesday at 11 a.m., the opening eagerly awaited by long lines of VIPs through which, every year, the unsettling rumor circulates that some super-VIPs have already gained admittance to the hallowed halls one or even two hours earlier. Given the growing number of multimillionaires and billionaires, it would seem to be only a matter of time before a new category of super-super-VIPs is afforded even more exclusive access at six in the morning.
Oh no, will super-super VIPs start gaining access even earlier?
The fair owes some of its popularity with collectors to its peaceful location. At the U.S. offshoot, Art Basel Miami Beach, everything revolves around seeing and being seen, whereas in Switzerland, the upper crust can feel certain they will not be bothered by paparazzi or eccentrics. Art Basel does operate a bag scan these days, but old established restaurants still admit all comers. During the event, though, many hotels are hopelessly full. The venerable Hotel Krafft right on the Rhine is fully occupied by Art Basel regulars – despite charging over twice the usual room rates. Try booking ten years ahead and you will make it onto the waiting list. Before the fair, local art world acquaintances regularly receive requests for balcony space for an air mattress. Quite a few wealthy Baselers leave town for the duration and rent our their villa for thousands of francs a day – to collectors bringing an entourage of chef, yoga guru, hairdresser and art consultant and wishing to throw their own parties. Sedate parts of town decorated with old wagon wheels, like Bruderholz, are overrun by metrosexual hipsters from all over the world. Most Baselers take the Art Basel circus in their stride, if not with some pride. How practical, after all, to be a metropolis once a year and then return to the quiet life!
Many locals get in on the act themselves and let rip for one week in the year: Several art, photo and design fairs have docked onto Art Basel. The Swiss Art Awards have a large hall full of young Swiss art; I Never Read is a lovingly installed market for art books; and all around the fair, parked flatbed trucks show art outside. Parties take people to frivolous places, like the all-pink Club Velvet most people would never venture into the rest of the year. Here, collectors and gallerists meet for a drink at the end of the day with the rank and file of upcoming artists, freelance curators and assistants.
But where can you spend the rest of the night if you don't happen to be a millionaire? Following the award-winning renovation of the glass extension to the local St. Alban youth hostel by the architects at Buchner Bründler's in 2010, it immediately became an insider tip. Even Johann König, owner of the König Galerie in Berlin, stays here. Be warned, though: The double rooms are fully booked at least a year in advance. A place in a six-bed dorm for just under 50 francs per person can be had at shorter notice. The "White Cube Hotel," created last year by the Basel art collective Die Bande, is unbeatably cheap. Spending the night in a one-person tent – breakfast included – puts you back only 28 francs per night, and you're even part of the artwork! If the idea catches on, the entire fair could turn into a place where everyone watches everyone else sleep, eat and party. Most of what changes hands here is two-dimensional art that can be hung on the wall, so since the exhibition halls are pretty high, there's still plenty of room for more.

What we eat effects our functionality. Here is a brief instruction on what to eat for optimal functionality.
Principle #1: Food is sacred.
Recall the traditional blessing before eating: "Take this and eat it. This is my body…." The body is nourished by what we eat, drink, and even breathe. Nourishment is the foundation of functionality. (By the way, not only is food sacred. Everything else is sacred, too. )
Principle #2: The longer that humans have consumed a particular food, the better the food is for humans.
So, the core of the ancient or paleolithic diet is food that is wild and raw. Note that anything that we have to cook, like beans, was not a primary component of the diet of ancient humans.
In addition to things like wild berries, the primary distinction between the diet of ancient humans and other primates is the eating of wild animals. The high levels of two substances in the diet of certain ancient primates has been identified as the cause of the expanded size of the human brain over that of other primates, as well as the capacity for language and other "higher functions" of humans.
Those two valuable substances are Omega 3 Fatty Acids called EFA and DHA. We need both. The most concentrated natural sources of these substances are wild animals (though some supplements also can provide excellent sources of these and other valuable substances).
In modern life, we can get healthy wild animals either through hunting or out of the water. Also, we can
get food from grass-fed domesticated animals, such as cows or free-range chickens (including eggs). Grass-fed and free-range animals have an abundance of Omega 3 Fatty Acids, unlike grain-fed, "conventionally-raised" commercial livestock. Note that among the only creatures designed to consume grains raw are molds and birds, which have evolved specialized organs for digesting raw grains called gizzards.
The Omega 3 called ALA which is found in plants like hemp and flax does provide a fraction of the nutrition of EFA and DHA, but is much more nutritious than most of the fats in vegetable sources. Notably good vegetable sources of fat are coconuts and olives. The less these are processed the better, including heating them (cooking).
Principle #3 Organs are the most nutritionally-sensitive and nutrient-dense tissues.
So eat them. While fat is of great importance, as is protein, the highest concentrations of a wide range of essential nutrients are in the various organs. Again, the organs of wild or grass-fed creatures are the most nutrient-dense foods naturally available to humans, especially when consumed fresh (raw) or fermented.
Principle #4 Mammals are designed to consume raw milk, especially in infancy.
Note that humans may have only consumed the dairy products of other animals for around 10,000 years. Around that same time, humans began cultivating wild grains and sprouting the seeds to eat the much more nutritious sprouts and greens.
Around 100 years ago, the quality of dairy products was falling from modern conventional practices of raising livestock. Pasteurization of dairy products (and fruit juices and alcohol) became popular, as well as fortification with added vitamins and other "remedial steps" to aid in the sale of such substances.
Note that the pasteurizing or cooking or sterilizing of milk has similar effects to the same processes when used for other foods. The first cooking of meats by humans was to dry them out and preserve them as jerky, but primitive humans ate meat raw or only moderately heated ("rare"), starting with the organs and the fat, and then preserved the less desirable excess portions for later consumption or trade.
As for parasites, they can be killed using the modern techniqueof freezing "questionable" meat
(such as meat raised in unhealthy conditions like "factory farms").
Generally, a small portion of fresh high quality meat (no more than moderately heated) is far more nutritious than a bunch of sterilized meat from sickly creatures that require anti-biotics and supplements to survive to adulthood. Similarly, those humans who have unusually low physiological functionalities (and insufficiencies or deficiencies of nutrients) that lead them to value anti-biotics and supplements are the ones who can benefit most from small amounts of the most concentrated nutrients from natural, ancient sources.
Principle #5: Beware of modern things like modern foods and modern medicine.
Avoid carbohydrates and gluten-rich, refined carbohydrates in particular. Avoid low-grade vegetable oils, especially when cooked. Focus on ancient fats from healthy animal sources as well as primitive or traditional sources of vegetable fat like coconut, olives, palm kernels, and avocados.
While the next commentary on modern medicine is not an instruction of what to eat, it is relevant to the subject of promoting health. Modern medicine is well-known for labeling various sets of symptoms as incurable, such as scurvy. Scurvy is just a label for a set of symptoms of the predictable consequences of a lack of VitaminC and the deterioriating of various organs and functions that arise in the absence of Vitamin C (as in the discontinuing of functionalities that depend of the presence of certain amounts of Vitamin C).
Note that the language of modern medicine in diagnosing various physiological states as incurable may be entirely a reflection of the relative comprehension or ignorance of physiology on the part of the one using that language. If someone calls some development incurable, that may simply mean that the person using that language does not understand the physiology and nutrition relevant to that development.
To a fully-trained and licensed practitioner of western medicine, scurvy was functionally "incurable" (relative to the extent of their knowledge and competence). However, to someone moderately competent in the realm of basic nutrition, the panicked diagnostic terminology of "incurable scurvy" or "incurable disease" may be deemed something of a "mental illness" or at least a lack of maturity and competence. While modern doctors may desperately panic about scurvy and other so-called incurable diseases, even not having any idea what is going on and why and just reactively labeling something incurable, western scientists at least as far back as the 1930s have been documenting the deterioration of the health and functionality of modern populations subsequent to the popularizing of modern diets and modern food production.
Modern medications have been popularized for their capacity to interrupt the functioning of the immune system (like cough suppressants). While that result of suppressing coughs and other eliminative functions may be valuable in terms of getting an expendable soldier back on the battlefield or an expendable slave back to work, interrupting the functioning of the immune system does long-term harm (including the poisoning of the symbiotic bacteria in the human guts).
Modern medicine includes some very short-sighted interventions to suppress secondary eliminative functions of the immune system. It would not improve someone's health or nutrition to give them poisons that prevent them from having a bowel movements or urinating either. The idea of suppressing the immune system derives from military settings in which the immediate risk to survival is so high that long-term functionality is not a priority. Similarly, in an emergency room of a hospital, people may try interventions that are quite extreme which would be considered negligent if used with more healthy, stable people.
Medical suppression of the human immune system has it's relevance, but it should not be misunderstood as a replacement for proper nourishment and optimal functionality. Further, when consuming dense sources of nutrients, be aware that suppressed immune functions may be activated. That activating of the immune system does not mean that ancient foods that humans have eaten for thousands or millions of years are poisonous.
An active immune system means that poisons are being eliminated. Those poisons may have been stored in the tissues for years or decades. Simply use moderation in terms of the amount of nutrient-dense foods consumed in any particular period of time. Note that much smaller portions of nutrient-dense foods will be filling than when eating nutrient-deficient substances.
Principle #6 Get very high quality food and consume it conservatively, transitioning gradually toward ancient methods
For instance, if you have never eaten raw wild-caught fish, begin with a small, experimental amount of it. Transition conservatively by raising the quality of your foods and transitioning toward traditional preparation techniques, like marinading flesh in lemon juice or raw apple cider vinegar then cooking it, but later marinading and just heating it, and finally eating it at normal temperatures (body temperature or room temperature is more digestible than refrigerator temperatures).
Before transitioning to all wild or all raw, unless you have a dire health emergency, you might first transition through a diet that includes some raw dairy and raw, sprouted grains (or even cooked). Also, if you have weak bones, make bones in to broth and eat that. If you have an issue with a certain organ, eating a healthy organ of the same sort is a great place to start when seeking all of the components of a healthy organ of that type.
Also, if you have been eating much refined sugar, a sudden and total discontinuing of sugar consumption may result in symptoms of withdrawal from the addiction, which may include detoxification headaches. When quitting a substance as addictive as sugar, transition conservatively and consume a lot of high quality water (adding minerals is often very beneficial, even when not addicted to sugar).
Eating a lot of sugar can make someone sick to their stomach. Stopping eating sugar allows for the body to stop dumping sugar in to the fat tissues throughout the body and to begin to eliminate it. The body may respond to a sudden decrease in sugar consumption by dumping internal glucose stored in fat tissues and so a moderate sickness to the stomach may result. When quitting sugar, it is best to be drinking high quality water and you can experiment with consuming at least small amounts of very high quality rich fat, which is one of the most satisfying substances to the human palate.
By transitioning from a carb-based diet and metabolism to a fat-based diet and metabolism, energy levels may rise dramatically. This is due to the higher efficiency of ketosis relative to the aerobic metabolism of sugar (three times more efficient), which is itself about 8 times more efficient than the anaerobic metabolism of sugar.
Fat is the primary fuel for human physiology. Supplying adequate amounts of proper fuel will provide long-term energy. Energy drinks and other less-than-primary sources of fuel will have only a fraction of the long-term benefit (if any long-term net benefit at all) of even small amounts of providing high quality fat for cellular metabolism.
