Happy Birthday, Uncle Frank
It's my Uncle Frank's birthday today. It's ironic that his birthday falls on this national holiday, thereby making it easy to overlook-- ironic because my Uncle Frank never overlooked another human being in his life. Every teacher has their roster of professional role models; Frank is one of mine. My Uncle Frank taught history starting in 1958; he taught for fifty years, including a stint in Germany as an Army school teacher. But he wasn't a model simply based on longevity. A former student (now teacher) recently shared that I handed her the idea that every person is worth knowing. ... more »

Iraq Oil Exports Up In June But Prices Dip
Iraq’s oil exports were up slightly in June, but a slight dip in prices meant revenues were down. Petroleum exportswent from 3.489 million barrels a day in May to 3.521 million in June. That was the highest rate since December 2017. Prices however dropped from $69.80 per barrel in May to $69.32 in June. That caused profits to decline from $7.551 billion in May to $7.323 billion in June. Despite the dip, Iraq is still earning more than what is set in the 2018 budget, which will mean the country will run a surplus after a few years of deficits due to the collapse in the internation... more »

Louie Gohmert Is Sincere... And Batshit Crazy, Utterly Delusional
When I was a sophomore in college I was smitten by a junior, the most beautiful girl in the school, artistic, sophisticated, mature... but I could barely get her to notice me. I was the chairman of the Student Activities Board and she mentioned to me that her favorite album in the world was *Song to a Seagull* by a new young singer I had never heard of. It had just been released by Reprise Records and I managed to get someone there to help me book her to play a concert at the school. It got me a couple of dates with the girl I was in love with. And I met that singer, who I became ... more »
Days of Rain, Nights of Mango Ice and Beer
[image: IMG_1125] *Morning out of Ruisui* Four days of riding east and west: Duona and Fangliao, and Ruisui and Hualien. Rain it did, but we had an excellent time medicating with mango ice and beer after the long rides. Come below the READ MORE line for the pics and discussion... *RIDE NOTES DAY 1*: On Day 1 we took the HSR down to Tainan and followed the 39 south to the 28. The 28 goes through the moonscape, the badlands in southern Taiwan. We followed that to Meinung and then got on the 181 to Gaoshu.

Medicare's Accelerating Insolvency Date
Lawrence O'Donnell, the MSNBC primetime news anchor, defended socialism on C-SPAN during an interview on Tuesday. He cited the well-managed socialist Medicare program as a justification for our having a high regard for much of socialism. He did not point out that a June 2018 report by the the Medicare trustees projects that the Part A Medicare Hospital Insurance trust fund will be depleted (wiped out) by 2026. He also did not point out that the Medicare trustees had projected that fund to be wiped out in 2029 only one year earlier. So much for the projections of socialists. A ra... more »

Schopenhauer On The Senses
Arthur Schopenhauer, in his essay, “On the Senses,” (Chapter 3; *The World as Will and Representation*, Volume II), says that the outer sense, or the receptivity for external impressions as pure data for the understanding, is divided into five senses, which conform to the four elements, or to the four conditions or states of aggregation, together with that of imponderability. Thus the sense for the firm (earth) is touch, for the fluid (water) is taste, for the vaporous, i.e., the volatile (vapour, exhalation) is smell, for the permanently elastic (air) is hearing, for the impondera... more »
Doofus Of The Day #1,015

We’ve picked a screenshot that doesn’t ruin the plot but as it clearly shows, this is no ordinary trailer. Weighing in at nearly 90 minutes it’s particularly long. In fact, it’s the entire movie – we checked. There's more at the link. A tip o' the hat to Australian reader Snoggeramus for providing it.

Philosophy shrugged: ignoring Ayn Rand won’t make her go away
There was exactly one great revolution in history and that is the emergence of Christianity and its step child, the enlightenment circa eighteenth century which produced the US constitution. Please think about what i just said. Neither were economic revolutions but they informed what was morally acceptable. That is still not good enough. Part of the solution is understanding and supporting personal freedom in order to actually drive economics. That debate has had Ayn Rand as a champion and the empirical results of the twentieth century has made the more compelling argument. The... more »

Long term the steady rise of organic methods will catch up to this problem along with the substitution of bio char methods in fertilization of soils.
