Our eyes tend to skim over information and our brains often jump to conclusions. This is because we take in so much visual information, that our brains need shortcuts to process it all. The trait evolved to help early humans survive encounters with fast predators, but it also means that we can be easily fooled by simple illusions. A new video, which is a collaboration between the American Chemical Society and Inside Science TV, explains the science behind this visual trickery. Take a look at the centre of this figure. It looks like an intricate pattern, nothing more. But when … Continue reading

Do you know why SUVs became so popular? It wasn’t because of their, er, sportiness. Or even their utility. It was because they provided a way to get the size(especially under the hood) that American buyers wanted but which the government was doing its damndest to deny them via fuel efficiency mandates. The story goes like this: In the mid-late 1970s, Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE, in government-ese) standards began to bite down. Government bureaucrats and politicians, in their usual secular Puritan we-know-best way, decided – then decreed – that new cars – generally – weren’t “efficient” enough. It wasn’t that there weren’t numerous … Continue reading

[Libertarian Forum (March 1983)] Wisdom has taught us to be calm and meek, To take one blow, and turn the other cheek; It is not written what a man shall do, If the rude caitiff smite the other too! —Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. . Somewhere in Ayn Rand’s Fountainhead there is a striking passage where one of the Bad Guys (and Rand’s Bad Guys are always unmistakably bad) abandons the Communist Party and rushes off to India to plunge into Hindu/guru mysticism. Rand caught one of the striking intellectual movements of our age. Time and time again, left-collectivists, after toiling … Continue reading

Are root canals safe? Dr. George Meinig, author of Root Canal Cover-Up, was a founding member of the American Association of Endodontics. He quit the association later in his career after he saw firsthand the adversereactions that root canals have on the immune system. Dr. Meinig also witnessed the irreparable damage to the jaw bone caused by the infected cavitation sites where root canaled teeth once sat. What exactly is a root canal? The standard root canal procedure effectively kills the tooth by removing all the dental pulp. The dental pulp contains the blood supply, nerves, and connective tissue. Once … Continue reading

“A time comes when silence is betrayal”

—Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

August 6th marks the anniversary of two historic occasions. The first, the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Voting Rights Act by President Lyndon B. Johnson. The second, the 70th anniversary commemorating the day President Truman ordered the dropping of nuclear bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki only three days later.

In the midst of the fight for voting rights and justice for all, Dr. Martin Luther King interrupted his campaign to speak out against the injustices and horrors of war. He declared, “There is nothing except a tragic death wish to prevent us from reordering our priorities so that the pursuit of peace will take precedence over the pursuit of war.”

70 years after the tragic and deadly nuclear bombs dropped over Japan, killing tens of thousands of people, that tragic death wish looms—with thousands of weapons hundred of times bigger over the planet as a whole—as we witness the escalated drive toward thermonuclear war, by the actions of an ever more insane President Obama. Obama’s intention is to provoke a thermonuclear first strike attack on Russia, which would immediately escalate to nothing less than a global war of extinction.

The American people must rise like lions from their slumber, in unvanquishable number, as we did the last time Obama tried to launch an illegal war in Syria, in September 2013. It is high time to invoke the 25th Amendment of the Constitution, declare Obama to be mentally unfit for office by insanity, and remove him from office.

This threat of war coming from Obama on orders of the Queen is nothing the Russians are taking lightly. The Russians stand ready to defend their nation, but also know the threats to the extinction of the human species that such a war represents.

Statesman Lyndon LaRouche has issued a call to heed the warning of Dr. King in his epic words, “There is such a thing as being too late.” LaRouche’s recent challenge to Hillary Clinton to expose Obama’s lies on Benghazi, to bring him down now, is the unpractical flank needed to prevent “too late.”

Join in the mobilization of the LaRouche movement. Act now to defend the human species against the threat of extinction. Obama must be removed now.

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Sputnik International, under the title, “US Analyst Claims Geopolitics Could Lead to Extinction of Human Race”, ran an interview with Helga Zepp-LaRouche on August 7, underscoring Lyndon LaRouche’s warning that a “Guns of August” scenario today would lead to a thermonuclear war.

Referring to the end of WWII, Sputnik quotes Zepp-LaRouche as saying, “There was absolutely no reason for this bombing as there was already peace negotiation between the emperor and the Vatican at that time. The bombing was done to instigate horror and awe by Truman so that he could continue the era of imperialism.”

Then, regarding the strategic situation today,

“There are many people who have been warning that the US and NATO are preparing a new war against Russia and China. There is a very serious escalation of the situation, making the month of August extremely dangerous as history shows most of the wars started in August, and the US military has changed tactic in Syria last week and the US army has gone into recess.”
