While we all know what we should be eating when it comes to getting turned on in the bedroom, we’re not very sure which foods we should avoid. The food we eat can affect our sex drive in both a positive and negative way, so it’s important to choose wisely when it comes to getting some action. While some of these anti-aphrodisiacs, which include surprising foods such as broccoli, tofu and oats, are good for us in the long run, they are best not consumed when you’re hoping to get in the mood for love. ‘Food can have an incredible … Continue reading →

Originally published in Ancient American Magazine. The Newberry tablet no longer exists. Found on the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, it represented only one of thousands of inscribed artifacts recovered from mounds dotting the state from roughly 1890 to 1920, most of which were destroyed. The enormity of such a loss to history and inscribed artifacts were sacrificed to the hypothesis that no ancient peoples, other than the historic Indian, ever arrived in America. The tragic disappearance of priceless, irreplaceable material must be born by University of Michigan officials, whose responsibility it was to preserve these matters. The prehistory of the … Continue reading →

The U.S. Department of Justice issued two reports last week, both growing out of the Ferguson, Missouri shooting of Michael Brown. The first report, about “the shooting death of Michael Brown by Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson” ought to be read by every American. It says in plain English what facts have been established by an autopsy on Michael Brown’s body — by three different pathologists, including one representing the family of Michael Brown — by DNA examination of officer Darren Wilson’s gun and police vehicle, by examination of the pattern of blood stains on the street where Brown … Continue reading →

Policy intellectuals — eggheads presuming to instruct the mere mortals who actually run for office — are a blight on the republic. Like some invasive species, they infest present-day Washington, where their presence strangles common sense and has brought to the verge of extinction the simple ability to perceive reality. A benign appearance — well-dressed types testifying before Congress, pontificating in print and on TV, or even filling key positions in the executive branch — belies a malign impact. They are like Asian carp let loose in the Great Lakes. It all began innocently enough.  Back in 1933, with the … Continue reading →

The fat you choose to use in cooking can make the difference between a meal that supports health and a meal that throws off free radicals (thought to be a primary cause of the degeneration we refer to as aging). The higher the cooking heat, the more likely you are to be bombarded with free radicals, set off by breaks in fatty acid chains. There are only a few fats that can defy oxidation and its cousin, rancidity. What’s the determining factor? It’s the stability of the fatty acid chain. Saturated fats are the most stable fats because their fatty acid chains … Continue reading →

Listen to the podcast ROCKWELL:  Recently, famed journalist, Ben Swann, asked me, “What is Anarcho-Capitalism?”  I thought you might like to hear our discussion. SWANN:  This is going to be an interesting show because in our first hour, we’re going to be talking with Lew Rockwell of LewRockwell.com.  He is one of the — I would say one of the foremost authorities right now in the country in terms of especially something called Anarcho-Capitalism.  We’re going to talk to him a little bit about that, what exactly Anarcho-Capitalism consists of.  But also, one of these guys who has been pushing … Continue reading →

Joe Biden invoked Jesus on Friday responding to Ben Carson’s bizarre argument that prison inmates “turning gay” after going into prison straight proves homosexuality is a lifestyle choice, rather than a genetic or otherwise innate trait. As a libertarian, this debate holds little interest for me. Even if homosexuality is a lifestyle choice, it is one that does not harm other people and thus falls into that vast category of human behavior called “liberty,” which should be beyond the reach of any government. What does concern me is Carson’s argument on why homosexuals “don’t have a right to be served … Continue reading →

Everytime you say “No” an angel gets its wings. I was talking to an angel recently who told me this. He begged me to say “no” more often. More angels need wings, he said. Not only does an angel get wings but you double your own lifespan. If I say “No” to a dinner meeting, I get about three extra hours added to my life. If I say “No” to binge-watching “House of Cards” then I get 12 hours added to my life. Unfortunately I said “Yes” to binge-watching “House of Cards”. Addition. Subtraction. “No” is the math of life. … Continue reading →

Most Prepper types that I know appear to have a common trait: they are good at evaluating risks then moving to mitigate those risks in a nimble manner.  What that means, in somewhat plainer English, is they have the ability to evaluate a situations, make a plan, learn from it, and ultimately act in a responsible manner. Along those lines, more recently I have done some personal analysis and put more focus on what I call “hard times ahead”.  With my disaster preps more or less in order, I want to ensure that my own household will get through a period of … Continue reading →

There aren’t many made-for-tv movies worth watching, let alone 32 years later, but “The Day After” is the exception–as a movie and as a warning. Neocon Herman Kahn used to stand out in the 1960s for advocating first use of nuclear weapons. He’d have plenty of company in these days of crazed Russaphobia. ‘The Day After‘ is a graphic, disturbing film that first aired on November 20, 1983.   It is the frightening story of the weeks leading up to and following a devastating nuclear holocaust on small-town residents near Lawrence, Kansas. Director: Nicholas Meyer Writer: Edward Hume Starring: Jason Robards, … Continue reading →
