The message from China’s party congressThe highlight of the recent 20th National Congress of the Communist Party
(CPC) of China has been the re-election of Xi Jinping as the General
Secretary for another five-year term. The tradition set by Deng Xiaoping in
the post-Mao Zedong era has been set aside. This was not unexpected, and
has been largely interpreted as a consolidation of political power by the
incumbent leader. That is partly so but not entirely. Its consequences are
wide-ranging. read more

The way to save the world is forward. About progress and PHILOSOPHY
A long (and somewhat intellectual) one, this time. But first an art-note.
My wife & I once visited one of the artist Christo’s massive (and massively
wasteful-but-impressive) installations … the ‘umbrellas’ he erected north
of Los Angles around 1991. The posthumous event in Christo’s honor -
‘wrapping’ the Arc de Triumph - looks to be impressive – this time made
from recyclable materials, supposedly. Another artist - Stuart Williams -
similarly large scale art installations can be viewed here. In some ways
better!

New Bivalent COVID-19 Booster Shots Continue to Kill and Injure as U.S. Government Targets Blacks and Hispanics
The U.S. Government's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS)

deaths following the new Bivalent COVID-19 booster shots, bringing the
totals now for the new booster shots to 5,435 injuries, 45 deaths, 53

"When I See..."
"When I see the blind and wretched state of men, when I survey the whole
universe in its deadness, and man left to himself with no light, as though
lost in this corner of the universe without knowing who put him there, what
he has to do, or what will become of him when he dies, incapable of knowing
anything, I am moved to terror, like a man transported in his sleep to some
terrifying desert island, who wakes up quite lost, with no means of escape.
Then I marvel that so wretched a state does not drive people to despair."
