Vote Yes On Proposition 1A
2008-09-25 10:08:00 Proposition 1A is on the ballot here in California. Turns out hardly any Californians have even heard of it 78% have never heard of it. It will cost some money, but we either build this or we build highways, so which would it be? Turns out that we can build this instead of new highways, at ½ the cost.Whites in Europe have always funded public transit, and as a result, Europe has some of the best public transit on Earth. Whites in the US have not. There are many reasons for that, but race is one of them. Back East, there are fears, not unreasonable ones, that extending transit from Black ghettos to White neighborhoods will result in Underclass Black young males invading previously nice shopping malls and destroying them.This has actually happened in many areas back East such as St. Louis and Atlanta. The Underclass Blacks take over, crime, hooliganism, harassment, vandalism, assaults and God knows what else go up, civilized humans start avoiding the mall, stores start failing due to ...

Economists Against the $700 Billion Bailout Theft
2008-09-25 10:04:00 Updated September 24:This is a list of economists who have come out against Bush's insane $700 billion bailout of casino Wall Street banksters who brought this whole mess upon us.Looking over it, at first I thought they were a bunch of leftwingers, but seeing the preponderance of names from that coven known as the Chicago School of Economics, plus the particular wording of the protest letter, plus the website its hosted on the Ordo Templi Orientis website of John Cochrane, a High Economic Priest in the heart of Neoliberal Baal at the Chicago School, shows me that this is coming from the rightwing of the ultra-hardcore neoliberals themselves.I don't recognize any of those names, but if they're Chicago School like almost all US economists these days, they're all named Mephistopheles. I almost feel dirty just looking at those names.But of course it's a total contradiction of Neoliberal Economic Theology for the state to bail out anyone, large or small, much less to (Socialist horr...

Cannabis, Teens and Schizophrenia
2008-09-25 07:32:00 I received a mail today from someone who attended an interesting conference in the Midwest.At a Mental Illness and Criminal Justice Conference today in Omaha, Nebraska, Dr. Frederick Frese, who is the Coordinator of the Summit County Recovery Project and Assistant Prof of Psychology in Clinical Psychology at NEOUCOM and Case Western Reserve U, and on the Board of Trustees for the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill, gave a session on teenage cannabis use and schizophrenia.He has been a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic for 40 years.Frese stated that use of cannabis between the ages of 15 and 18 in persons who have a variant allele of the COMT gene will lead to an almost certain psychotic break by the age of 25. He said it's because of the formative time that the brain is in during those years, in combination with that certain allele, together with cannabis use.He said that if you have do not have the variant allele, no problem.

The Children of Low Wage Immigrants are Criminals
2008-09-25 03:41:00 Updated September 24:The male children, at least.This has been true at least in the past 150 years or so. We went through Hell for decades already with the Sicilians, the Irish and the Jews. After some time, they've all comfortably made it to middle class America and beyond. The Irish, Jewish and Sicilian ghettos of yore are nowhere to be found.We are seeing it again with Hispanic illegal immigrants from Mesoamerica and the Dominican Republic and with unscreened immigrants from US colonies in Puerto Rico and Western Samoa. The first generation of illegal or unscreened immigrants produces criminal children, which then produces a criminal culture.In some cases, it ends right there and the newer generations assimilate well. In other cases, as with the White ethnics above, you end up with decades of Underclass Hell before they finally climb aboard. In other cases, the criminal children of the first generation may produce a permanent Underclass. Look at the Gypsies in Europe. They've b... More About: Children , Immigrants , Criminals
Hurricane Ike Deaths Coverup?

I'm aware of Hurricane Ike death toll coverup allegations floating around the Net, but they are mostly on crazy conspiracy sites right now, but hey, even a stopped clock is right twice a day. Nevertheless, something strange does seem to be going on right now.Let me say right now that I would put virtually nothing beyond this diabolical Administration, the utterly depraved and wicked political party, and the Stepford Wives followers.

Real Sick, Sorry
2008-09-25 01:01:00 For some reason, I hardly ever get very ill anymore. But I just came down with the stomach flu (gastroenteritis), the worst case I have had since I was a kid. You really don't need to know the messy details. I did some research on this illness.Wikipedia seems to think it is spread by bacteria, often through something you ate. But someone else I talked to said that it's often spread person to person as an infectious agent like a cold or flu. I just gave to two folks who I'm visiting right now, so I guess that's true. Oh well, now they can never say I never gave them anything!The Wikipedia articles are all saying that it's spread fecal-orally. Well, it's not like I crapped in their dinner or anything, so how does that work? Plus, having OCD, I'm kind of a cleaning maniac in the bathroom.

Solution For Mcshield.exe Hogging the CPU
2008-09-22 13:12:00 I am having lots of problems with Mcshield.exe while I try to download updates. It starts grinding away at the drive, nothing downlands, and everything gets really slow. Mcshield.exe is the McAfee Antivirus scanner. I don't know why, but every time I try to download something from Microsoft, this program goes insane. Solution ?First of all, determine that the problem is indeed McAfee. Search for Task Manager on your drive and make a shortcut to the program, putting it on your desktop. I run that program all the time. It tells you which programs are hogging memory of CPU. It's pretty easy to figure out.The solution to the problem is to turn Mcshield.exe. Open up the McAfee Security Center by clicking the icon in the tray on the right-hand side of your screen. Shift from Basic Menu to Advanced Menu. Click Configure. Click Computer and Files. Where it says Virus Protection is Enabled Yes and No, Yes should be checked. Check no.It will throw up a warning to you telling you that you are...
Some Nepalese Racial Types
2008-09-22 11:55:00 This post will highlight some of the interesting racial types of Nepal. Nepal is a country that is very interesting racially, and seems to have a wide variety of phenotypes. Racial ly, Nepalese are generally Caucasians, but we are starting to head into the territory of Caucasians shading into Asians here. I don't know much about the prehistory of Nepal, but I suppose it may be similar to the prehistory of India and possibly Tibet.These photos show Indian types from Nepal. There are also more Asiatic types, but I don't have any photos of them right now.Although at one time, there were 60 different racial types classified in India, no one wants to do this kind of research now, because Hitler pretty much ruined classical racial studies forever. Anyway, I'm hoping Joe Stickler can stop by here and shed some light on some of these Indian types from Nepal here.Let's take a look:I find this Nepalese woman very interesting looking.

Video Shock: I Neo Nazisti Russi Decapitano Un Prigioniero Caucasico
2008-09-22 09:41:00 Note: This to regular readers: This is an Italian translation of the famous Russian Neo-Nazi Beheading Video post. The translator added in some about Mussolini, Italian fascism and especially Mussolini's language policy. The translator is "Paolo from Trieste" (this is how he wishes to be known) and speaks Italian, Venetian and Friulian.I had to go through this text after it was done to clear up the English phrases he had problems with, and then I had to wade through this Italian to try to figure out where to put the hyperlinks. Although I don't know any Italian, I know English extremely well and I know Spanish pretty well. Combining the two, I was amazed at how well I was able to plod through Italian.This post is extremely popular and gets huge traffic from Europe.

Many Political Parties, One Illegal Alien Flavor
2008-09-21 13:56:00 In California, we have several political parties. On the Right, we have the California Illegal Alien Libertarian Party and the California Illegal Alien Republican Party. On the Left, we have the California Illegal Alien Green Party, the the California Illegal Alien Peace and Freedom Party and the California Illegal Alien Democratic Party.The parties differ in some ways. Although they all love illegal alien criminal invaders who are destroying this state much more than American citizens, they do seem to differ in their love for the criminal aliens and bristling hatred for the citizens of our nation. The California Illegal Alien Republican Party probably loves the illegals and hates the citizens the least, though it's hard to say.There's no difference for all intents and purposes between the wackjobs in the local Democratic Party and the flat-out idiots in the parties of the Left.

McCain Channels Herbert Hoover
2008-09-20 12:54:00 John McCain was on tape 22 times repeating the Herbert Hoover -like, "The fundamentals of our economy are strong," line. In case you did not know, Hoover did nothing when the Depression first hit, and continued to do nothing for the first three years of the Depression.He kept saying over and over that it was wrong to interfere with the natural rhythm of business cycle. Camps of the homeless and unemployed sprung up all over the country and were quickly dubbed "Hoovervilles".By 1932, he was toast, the nation had moved far to the Left, Roosevelt came in as an activist President and enacted many great socialist reforms.The Republican Party hasn't learned a fucking thing since 1932. They still repeat the same nonsense about not interfering in the natural flow of the business cycle. They're like psychopaths who never learn no matter how many times they are punished, or fundamentalists who cannot be convinced by facts, or ideologues who never let reality get in the way of a good-sounding...

Sarah Palin's Crashing Favorability Ratings
2008-09-20 12:41:00 As you can see here, Sarah Palin's popularity is crashing in a bad way. The honeymoon started out real nice, but has soured awful fast. She now has the lowest positives and highest negatives of any candidate in the race. Obama and Biden still have high positives, but McCain's have been dropping like a rock. That doesn't mean that McCain is going to lose.It just means that a lot of those who will not vote for Obama still like him as a person. Obama is a very likable fellow. McCain is not so likable. He comes off old, and seems like a jerk much of the time. He has a horrible smile that seems to say, "Fuck you, I want to punch your lights out," a lot.Palin is clearly a very divisive figure.I understand that the business community and Wall Street are actually frightened of her.

Niggers* and Beaners* Wrecked the Economy Redux
2008-09-20 10:18:00 White nationalists have advanced the extremely racist argument that Blacks and Hispanics are responsible for blowing up the economy with the latest subprime mortgage meltdown, which has taken out titans in the insurance and brokerage industry. Lehman Brothers, the 3rd largest brokerage firm on Earth, was allowed to implode.AIG, one of the world's largest insurance companies, was about to go bankrupt until socialism stepped in, as the Bush Administration bought an 80% stake in the firm. I do support nationalizing huge industrial titans like this that have proven too irresponsible to run a modern company.AIG went down because they insured the subprime securities that investors bought against going bad. Yes, you can buy insurance on your stocks, bonds, derivatives and other financial crap. Amazing, huh?It remains to be seen whether an $85 billion bailout of AIG is a good bargain for taxpayers. It seems that we are investing public money in this mountain of AIG's losses, no? How is th... More About: Economy
John McCain, Married to Big Oil
2008-09-20 09:40:00 This is a nice little video showing John McCain's stance on the environment.McCain vetoed a bill forcing oil companies to prevent oil spills - that means McCain does not think that oil companies try to avoid oil spills. According to the logic of capitalism, if there is no monetary incentive to prevent spills, oil companies will not try very hard to prevent them. Therefore, they must be forced by the state to do so.If oil companies are doing such a great job of preventing spills, why would the state have to force them to prevent them in the first place. Obviously, they are not spending much money on this.He voted for three different bills that tried to set higher CAFE standards for cars. This strikes me as insane. The Republican Party claims to be all upset that we are running out of oil - well, if they are so upset, why do they keep vetoing CAFE standards.

I went to the beach all the time. There are oil rigs offshore. It's no big deal, really, except for one thing: there are always globs of oil washing up on the beautiful beach.If you bodysurf and play in the sea, or walk or job down by the waves, you will see these blobs regularly.

How Learning One Language Well Helps You Learn Others
2008-09-19 10:20:00 In the comments, the ever-perceptive dano notes: dano: The thing is, I've found that once you learn to speak a European language, and particularly a Latin-based one, you see similarities in many words across the board and a rough kind of pattern emerges, making it easier to learn more languages.dano is correct - once you learn one Romance language, you can learn many others. Also, the better you know English, the more easily you can learn a Romance language because so many English words have Latin roots. I also know some Proto Indo European knowledge, so I can see roots that go back even farther back than Latin.It helps to learn Greek and Latin roots in English. That way you can pick up more English words that you don't even know just by figuring out roots. Also it helps a lot with Romance languages.Let's try a little experiment.

Niggers* and Beaners* Wrecked the Economy and Other BS
2008-09-19 06:40:00 It's not just White nationalists who are making this racist argument. The business class has also taken it up. Turns out Bill Clinton blew up the economy by forcing fine upstanding loan sharks to loan to stupid, low IQ, morally depraved, irresponsible Blacks and Hispanics.I do not agree with this argument, "Blacks and Browns ruined our economy" one bit. For one thing, there is not the tiniest bit of evidence that this is true. Social scientists and journalists, liberal or not, often tell the truth. If Blacks and Hispanics ruined our economy, that's unpleasant to hear to most liberals, but it's going to come out sooner or later, because a lot liberals (like me) would write about it whether it's PC or not.First of all, the "pressure to loan to Blacks and Browns" thing came in under Clinton around 1992 or so.

It has 794,000 speakers and is in pretty good shape.Friulian is probably closer to Latin itself than most other Romance languages. There is a close relationship with Ladin and Romansch. Most speakers also speak Standard Italian. In regions of Slovenia bordering Friuli, almost everyone speaks Friulian as a second or third language. Friulian is closer to French than to Italian.

I don't really understand his methods, but he's using some kind of Gaussian lines. These charts are based on polling mostly ending from September 12-15 (although the Indiana chart ended on September 5), so they do not catch the latest mood over the Wall Street crashes.New Mexico was looking awfully close recently, but a couple of recent polls have Obama up by 7-8 points. Although this site has McCain up by 2, at this point, it is looking like Obama will carry the state.

The Nonexistent Anti-Obama Racist Factor
2008-09-18 07:15:00 It's interesting that race seems to be playing little role in this campaign, except possibly in New York and Massachusetts, where many Democrats seem to be voting against Obama , possibly because he is Black. Race seems to be playing little to no role elsewhere, even in the South, where Obama is doing about as well as expected.Obama tends to be doing better than expected in the Great Plains and Intermountain West, so, if anything, the is an anti-race factor there. More Whites than expected are voting for Obama. It's possibly we may be seeing an anti-race effect with these Whites, where they are Whites who are voting for, not against, Obama because he is Black.At any rate, the constant squawking among Blacks and many Democrats that if Obama loses, it will be due to race, is not warranted.

Sarah Comstock Tried to Ban "Daddy's Roommate"

Then some idiot Dems circulated a fake list of books to be banned, muddying the waters. Now, it turns out the campaign was lying and she really did try to ban some books after all.

Ayatollah Sarah Says the Earth is 6,000 Years Old
2008-09-16 09:18:00 Unfortunately, I believe that the last poll I read sometime in the past ten years said that close to 50% of Americans (I think 47%) believe that man was created in the past 10,000 years and that they reject the theory of evolution. That's why America keeps electing far rightwing wackos, religious and non-religious, to top positions in government.When I lived in Orange County, I don't think I ever met anyone who did not believe in evolution. Then I moved to the Central Valley and the Sierra Nevada foothills, and I've been terrified to bring up the question. That's because about every time I did, someone shot me down. Is there something about living in the sticks that makes people stupid?If you're one of the 47% of Americans who don't believe in evolution, maybe you should just stop reading now.
