Lessons We Can Learn from Jiro Ono
I have been re-watching the documentary Jiro Dreams of
Sushi for the past couple of months. I've seen it at least 10 times,
probably more, while writing drafts for this article. I've watched it
alone, with my wife, with friends, and I don't tire of it; I've
recommended it to everyone I know, and now I'm wholeheartedly
recommending it to you. I have watched this film in fascination, trying
to extract lessons from this master. What have I learned from him? And
what questions do these lessons open up for me? More »
How to Get Out of an Unwanted Political Conversation
With the election taking place last night, everyone wants
to talk about it. That's great, and political discussion, along with a
little gloating or moaning, is certainly good for the soul. But what

how to get out of those conversations and stay focused. More »

Long Time Philadelphia Voters Reportedly Missing From Rolls, Forced to Cast Provisional Ballots
[Now UPDATED at bottom with comment from Philadelphia's election
chief, City Commissioner Stephanie Singer .]
Okay, this one is quite troubling. It's being reported that long time
voters in Philadelphia have been showing up to vote today, only to find
out that they are not on the voting rolls anymore at all.

Fundamentals and the Triumph of Avoiding Disaster
John Sides has an excellent post up called "The Fundamentals

the consensus of fundamentals-based forecasts called for a narrow Obama
victory.Absolutely true, and the place to begin. But

Corbett Report Radio 253 – A Tale of Two sElections
The leadership of a great nation hangs in the balance. Even now,
decisions are being made in secret that will influence the course of the
world’s finances and geopolitics in the years to come. The people have
been told that their votes play a part in this process, but no one
believes it. The real leadership decision is made behind closed doors,
with zero transparency, by a self-appointed “elite.”
Anomalies of the Air Defense on 9/11 – Paul Schreyer on GRTV
The systematic failure of every level of the US air defense on

defense department in those attacks. In his new peer-reviewed article

as there are laws in place to prevent the US government from
propagandizing to its own citizens.
Indeed, legislation prohibiting government-sponsored domestic propaganda
has been in place for nearly one century.

On Mr. Obama’s Reelection
The outcome of the election yesterday was hopeful enough.
When I reflect on the liberal leanings of many I know, and when I think
about how these are hard-working, tax-paying folks who value longterm
friendships and the virtues of honesty and inclusion—I’m mystified at
the screaming and anger on the other side.
And I’m mystified by the anger at a moderate center-left President.

Four more years of drone killings, Guantanamo, crazy FBI agent

Is another Tip O'Neill, Ronald Reagan Grand Bargain Possible?
By @TedFrier
The hidden winner in last night's historic election may be Republican
House Speaker John Boehner whose home state of Ohio put President Barack

If Boehner plays his cards right he may be able to reprieve the role
made famous by Democratic Speaker Tip O'Neill and conservative icon

But also, being ugly is just no-class, even when I do

Robin Hood Goes To Capitol Hill
Take from the rich, give to the poor. The legendary robber’s credo
found new expression in U.S. law on September 14, when Rep. Keith

as the Inclusive Prosperity Act, it proposes a small financial
