... and scuzz-baggery.
Aside from the reality that communications firms with contracts with the
Conservative Party of Canada made phone calls to people using the
Conservative Party of Canada's own database on Canadian voters, falsely
telling people their polling stations had been moved, the defense of the
right-wingnuts has been that thousands of partisan leftards decided (in
response to the acknowledged Conservative shenanigans in Guelph) to launch
into an orchestrated campaign of bogus complaints about similar robocalls
across Canada immediately after the 2011 federal election.

One of the closest races in the country and one of the last to be decided,
conservative New Dem Ron Barber beat back Martha McSally 143,173 to

60-40%, but couldn't overcome the odds on much bluer-- and much bigger--
Pima County (Tucson), where Barber took 52% of the vote. Obama's and

Police arrest Kingston man who told kids Santa isn't real at parade

Police arrested a 24-year-old man on Sunday who was allegedly walking along
the parade route, possibly drunk, yelling that Santa Claus didn’t exist.
Bystanders described the man as having his hair gelled to “look like horns
that were protruding from his head.”
About an hour into the parade, police spotted the suspect and he was
arrested.

Cameron braced for "mission impossible" on EU budget
Lynsey at The Coming Crisis - 46 minutes ago
Battling rebels baying for Britain to leave the European Union, David
Cameron faces the near impossible task this week of finding an EU budget
deal acceptable to mutinous party members and to exasperated fellow EU
leaders.
The prime minister's threat to veto the union's long-term budget at a

Egypt agrees deal for $4.8 billion IMF loan
Lynsey at The Coming Crisis - 52 minutes ago
Egypt reached a preliminary agreement on Tuesday with the International
Monetary Fund for a $4.8 billion loan, a step seen as vital to shoring up
the nation's finances.
Investors who abandoned Egypt during the political turmoil that followed
the overthrow of Hosni Mubarak last year have been looking to the IMF to
give its seal of approval to the government's economic program.
Egypt's benchmark index .EGX30 pared losses on the news and the cost of
insuring Egyptian debt against default fell.

James Allen Guilty Of Two Murders

A graph to illustrate the causes of the Israeli attack on Gaza
Not a sheep at Not a sheep - 2 hours ago
Since Israel left Gaza in 2005, to help ensure peace they were told, those
are the number of rockets fired at Israel from Gaza. Yes many were shot
down by the Israeli Iron Dome defences, yes many landed in open
countryside. But how many other countries would be expected to just let the
rockets be fired at it and to be censured for responding?
Hamas have ramped up their attacks this year, partly to take attention off
of Iran but mainly to try and draw Israel into reacting and so losing even
more public support. Hamas have succeeded, but what choice did Israel
really have?

Some cartoons that make sense of the current Israeli Hamas conflict
Not a sheep at Not a sheep - 2 hours ago
First, two cartoons that make the same point. However many rockets are
fired at Israel by Hamas, the story is only newsworthy when Israel
responds.The western news media, almost without exception, just didn't

Israeli response their readers, viewers and listeners are given the
distinct impression that the problem started with Israeli aggression.
The third cartoon is one that helps to explain the very unfortunate deaths
of children in Gaza.

A new British-based Islamist group plans to meet in Islamabad to issue a

The move against Malala Yousufzai, 15, is likely to provoke outrage. In the

America And The New 'Great Game' With China
Lynsey at The Coming Crisis - 4 hours ago
President Obama's Burma trip was about symbolism: a signal from America
that it believes the country's reforming government is moving in the right
direction.
But the last leg of his Asia tour - to Cambodia - is, in global terms, far
more important.
It's all about geo-politics and specifically, China.
A key strand to America's foreign policy for the next decade is the
'Pacific pivot'.
Mr Obama calls himself the 'Pacific President'. Why?
Because America is anxious about the increasing dominance of China.

The longstanding conflict between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas *reignited
last week after Israel launched airstrikes against what it called terrorist

Israel explained that the offensive, which it calls "Operation Pillar of

Hamas-controlled territory.
Among those killed in the Israeli airstrikes Wednesday was Ahmed
al-Ja'abari, the chief of Hamas' military wing. Weapons depots and
rocket-launching sites were also targeted.

Lynsey at The Coming Crisis - 9 hours ago
While holding itself out as an honest broker for truce talks between Israel
and Hamas over the Gaza conflict, Egypt’s new government sought on Monday
to plunge into the battle over international public opinion on behalf of
the Palestinian cause — an arena where the Israelis, more experienced in
the world of the free press and democratic politics, have historically
dominated.
In Egypt’s most concerted effort to win more global public support for the
Palestinians, advisers to Egypt’s President Mohamed Morsi, a former leader

Lynsey at The Coming Crisis - 9 hours ago
Five days of rocket attacks have taken a heavy economic toll so far,
costing Israel hundreds of millions of shekels.
The damage has been felt mainly in the south, but other parts of the
country are feeling the indirect impact, whether it is from reservists
being called up, canceled plans for holidays or lower morale at work.

Prime Minister David Cameron has compared efforts to cut the country’s

In a speech made to the annual conference of the Confederation of British

economic equivalent of war” and needed to find the “spirit” of the 1940s.
The Conservative leader used the occasion to launch an attack on Whitehall
bureaucracy and planning constraints which, he believes, are hindering

President Francois Hollande's decision to recognize Syria's new opposition

With his economic policies under harsh scrutiny at home and abroad,

GAZA WAR – ISRAEL MAKE PEACE DEMANDS THEY KNOW HAMAS WILL NEVER ACCEPT
Damian Lataan at Telling the History of the Twenty-First Century as it Really Is - 14 hours ago
According to a report in Ha’aretz today, Israel are demanding that:
*…any cease-fire remain in place for a period of several years. Israel is
also demanding an Egyptian commitment to prevent the smuggling of weapons
from Sinai into Gaza, and that Hamas or other terror group members be kept
500 meters from the border fence. Israel also wants international assurance
that, if necessary, it would be allowed to operate over the border to foil
terror attacks.*
Israel knows that, not only would these demands be unacceptable to the
Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, but that such demands would... more »

“How massive can a normal star be? Estimates made from distance,
brightness and standard solar models had given one star in the open cluster
Pismis 24 over 200 times the mass of our Sun, nearly making it the record
holder. This star is the brightest object located just above the gas front
in the above below.
*Click image for larger size. *
Close inspection of images taken with the Hubble Space Telescope, however,

Restitution a significant factor in sentencing for fraud
James C Morton at Morton's Musings - 14 hours ago
McLellan, [2012] O.J. No. 5028 (C.A.):
44. However, I am satisfied that the new evidence regarding his efforts at
restitution would have resulted in a reduced sentence had the trial judge

restitution is an important consideration in the sentencing of fraud and

Thirty years ago a writer for the San Francisco Examiner stated this.
*The American Legislative Exchange Council according to both conservatives
and liberals, is having more and more impact on the lives of American
taxpayers and voters.*
San Francisco Examiner, May, 1992
Thirty years ago.
We didn’t listen then and for thirty years ALEC has continued their reign
of terror against the American public.
ALEC likes to talk a lot about “taxpayers”
I saw a quote on Google the other day – where ALEC was pontificating about
“taxpayers”.
It made me wonder – how often do they talk about “taxpaye... more »

DES MOINES, Iowa, 19 November 2012 (CBS/AP) – Scientists are saying that
due to climate change caused by greenhouse gases, Iowans should brace
themselves for more bad weather like the 2012 drought.
More than 130 scientists from Iowa colleges and universities said in a
statement on Monday that this year's drought is consistent with a warmer
climate predicted as part of global climate change, and more droughts can
be expected.

*“New Philosophy - 1”*
by Chet Raymo
"It is one of Albert Einstein's most-often quoted quotes: "The most
incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is at all
comprehensible." Is the world comprehensible? Apparently at least partially
so. Consider the NASA solar eclipse atlas I referenced the other day. It is
possible to calculate the precise locations and times for solar eclipses
thousands of years into the future and past. That's comprehensibility for
you.
Of course, there are still things we do not comprehend, such as
consciousness or the development of organisms, but ... more »

The Pig & The Ghostwriter... The tale of a clairvoyant computer By Raymond
Weisling
This is a true story. It is about a funky Intel 386 computer that ran
Windows 3.1 but had some other strange capabilities that appeared over a
year or two. The setting is Solo, Central Java, Indonesia.
It started, I guess around early 1994, when I formed a map production
group, with four assistant graphics operators. I had a 386 DX computer left
over from an earlier project, but it was not used much, primarily because I
have always been a Macintosh user and Windows 3.1 was pretty awful. But... more »

Murray Dobbins Urges New Dems to Save Their Souls

*The Tyee's* Murray Dobbins says the New Dems are heading in the wrong
direction and only the Libs and Tories will benefit from it. Dobbins says Mulcair
has it all wrong.
*A couple of polls showing the federal NDP losing support to the Liberals
pose some pretty fundamental questions for the party and its small 'l'
liberal leader Thomas Mulcair. Does the party follow the narrow political
path of the two big business parties or does it reinvent itself as a

state of politics and governance in this country?*

Cowards of The Age Are Stomping Gaza To Death
Saman Mohammadi at The Excavator - 16 hours ago
Fact: The governments in Israel and the United States are led by cowards
who only attack weak and defenceless populations as well as failed states
(Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Gaza).
Fact: Operation Pillar of Death (the Israeli version is Pillar of Cloud)
began with Israel breaking the ceasefire and assassinating the only man in
Hamas who was capable of enforcing a ceasefire. Israel delivered a clear
message with that assassination: We don't want peace.
Fact: The world is condemning Israel's irresponsible and criminal attack
on Gaza. The U.S. and Israeli governments are ... more »
GAZA WAR – BACK DOOR TO CONFRONTATION WITH IRAN?
Damian Lataan at Telling the History of the Twenty-First Century as it Really Is - 17 hours ago
I have over the years suggested a number of scenarios by which Israel might
achieve its ultimate endgame objectives of destroying its enemies,
Hezbollah and Hamas, and realising the Zionist dream of creating a Greater
Israel. All of these suggested scenarios have involved regime change in
Iran.
I have suggested that an attack on Iran might include a simultaneous attack
against Hezbollah and Hamas on the pretext of preventing either or both
from mounting retaliatory attacks against Israel; I have suggested that
Israel might find some *casus belli* to attack Hezbollah in Lebanon in t... more »

*"Views Differ on Age of Planet"*

"Quite a few bloggers are having fun with Marco Rubio’s bobbing and weaving
in response to a question from GQ:
*GQ:* How old do you think the Earth is?
*Marco Rubio:* I’m not a scientist, man. I can tell you what recorded
history says, I can tell you what the Bible says, but I think that’s a
dispute amongst theologians and I think it has nothing to do with the gross
domestic product or economic growth of the United States. I think the age
of the universe has zero to do with how our economy is going to grow. I’m

Regime Uncertainty: Some Clarifications, by Robert Higgs
Peter Cresswell at Not PC - 17 hours ago
*A major reason for businesses in a depression being unwilling to invest in
recovery is being scared or uncertain about what the government will do
next that will damage or destroy those investments.
This idea is captured in Robert Higgs’ description of “**regime uncertainty*
*”—a variant of an old idea: that the willingness of businesspeople to
invest requires a sufficiently healthy state of “business confidence,” and
the
continued and unpredictable meddling and “stimulus” of governments ravages
the requisite confidence.*
*Regime uncertainty pertains to more than just the govern... more »
