Years ago, when I was tech writer for weird magazines such as Signal and for other more-normal techish pubs, Jews littered the intellectual landscape. They were all over high-end research, such as Bell Labs. The big names were often Jewish, Einstein, von Neumann, Feynman, Gell-Mann, Minsky. The staff list for the Manhattan Project read like a Yeshiva yearbook. The same happened in the arts. Bernstein, Landowska, Rubinstein, Stoppard (“Maidens in search of Godhead…and vice versa.”) Jews were smart, most people figured, not necessarily liking it.  I wondered why without great interest. Genetic determinists of course cooked up evolutionary explanations involving undiscovered … Continue reading →

When Ann Coulter told me she was going to be debating Sally Kohn, my first reaction was “That isn’t fair.” Some friends decided we would make signs that said “Cruel and Unusual Punishment” and “Leave Sally Alone!” with pictures of a Sally sheep being fed to an Ann wolf. Then we found out the stage was going to be polluted with a superfluous moderator and two token black women. It’s a shame because I looked into it and it turns out Sally isn’t the 100% retard I thought she was. Sure, she drags out the same old liberal tropes such … Continue reading →

Whether you’re hosting the big family reunion or a casual backyard dinner, nothing brings hungry folks together like the smell of charcoal at a summer cookout. In some regards, grilling is the easiest cooking method imaginable: food plus fire equals savory charred morsels. But a perfect picnic requires more than just knowing how to flip the burgers. No matter if you’re a blue-ribbon barbecue boss or a rotisserie rookie, these steps will help you get the most out of your charcoal grill. 1. START WITH A CLEAN SLATE. Always begin with a quick clean-up from the previous grilling session. First, … Continue reading →

Washington and its Canadian vassal are trying to use a Western media-created Russian athletic doping scandal to ban Russian participation in the Olympic games in Brazil. Washington and Canada are pressuring other countries to get on board with Washington’s vendetta against Russia. The vendetta is conducted under the cover of “protecting clean athletics.” You can bet your life that Washington is not motivated by a respect for fairness in sports. Washington is busy at home destroying fairness to the poor, and Washington, which disregards the sovereignty of countries and international law against naked aggression, is busy abroad destroying millions of … Continue reading →

In the US, 94 million people have “dropped out of the workforce,” and the unemployment situation is often worse in Europe. The ruling systems of the West have made these people superfluous. If you’re one of them, I’m sorry. It’s happening to millions of people right now, and it’s a horrible thing. (And it’s going to continue.) If you think this is your fault, you’re wrong. You are willing and capable of productive work, but the system has its own needs, and they no longer involve you. Please get clear on this: The system doesn’t give a damn about you … Continue reading →

The prospects for a better future are nearly hopeless for roughly 20 percent of black people — those who reside in big-city crime-infested and dysfunctional neighborhoods. There is virtually nothing that can be done about it without a major rebuilding of the black community from within. Let’s examine some of the aspects of the problem and the dismal prognosis, given the status quo. The most important social unit is the family. Many talk about the “breakdown” in the black family when a far more accurate description is that the family doesn’t form in the first place. About 73 percent of … Continue reading →

Low-carb, higher fat/protein diets are nothing new in mainstream culture–chances are you’ve heard of the Atkins Diet or Protein Power or some other version of these weight loss plans. These diets are at their core high-fat, low-carb Keto Diets or KDs, so called because they put your body into a state where it runs on ketones, rather than glucose or glycogen (you can read more about the science behind the process here). But what you might not be aware of are the myriad medical studies that show how Keto Diets go far beyond weight loss. In all reality,the Keto Diet … Continue reading →

Investors globally have never faced the risk of the magnitude that we are now exposed to. But sadly very few are aware of the unprecedented risks the world is facing. For the ones who understand risk and take the right decisions, it will “lead to fortune”. Only very few will choose that route. Instead, most investors will continue to live in the hope that current trends will go on forever but sadly these people will end up “in shallows and in miseries”. The risk is now staring us all right in our face but very few people can actually see … Continue reading →

Review of Phil Harvey and Lisa Conyers, The Human Cost of Welfare: How the System Hurts the People It’s Supposed to Help (Praeger, 2016), xv + 206 pgs. The Human Cost of Welfare is a welcome book, an important book, and a needed book—even if it does miss the real issue when it comes to welfare. It is also a good book—until you get to the authors’ proposals in the last chapter. Phil Harvey, the author of several other books, is chairman of the board of DKT International, “which provides family planning and HIV/AIDS prevention programs in 20 nations,” and … Continue reading →

These dramatic images offer a rare glimpse of the ‘Gateway To Hell’, one of the world’s oldest continuously active lava lakes. Portuguese travel photographer Joel Santos, 38, piloted a drone over the bubbling lake – which reaches temperatures exceeding 1,100 degrees Celsius – while he stood just a metre from the edge. The lake, situated in Afar, Ethiopia, has had a continuous flow since 1906 and lies inside the 2,011-foot-high Erta Ale volcano, otherwise known as the Smoking Mountain. The last major eruption occurred In September 2005, which killed a 250-strong herd of livestock and forced people in the surrounding … Continue reading →

It’s often been observed that revolutions that profess liberty end up as tyrannies. It’s what Edmund Burke predicted in his Reflections on the Revolution in France (1790). It’s the central message of George Orwell’s Animal Farm (1945). ‘All modern revolutions have ended in a reinforcement of the power of the state’, reflected Albert Camus in L’Homme révolté (1951), ‘1789 brings Napoleon; 1848 Napoleon III; 1917 Stalin; the Italian disturbances of the Twenties, Mussolini; the Weimar Republic, Hitler’. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. This is because revolutions are driven by the desire for power, and once this … Continue reading →

This is probably the first book about politics that I have read. I am however an extremely political person. The greatest evil facing us today from within our own governments and authorities in power is socialism. This is a tremendous book written in layman’s language by a man with a Ph.D. in economics. Most of the chapters I knew the topic being discussed but I’ve learned a wealth of history, quotes and names of those worthy of reading and quoting. While not written for students I think every young person graduating high school should read this book to help temper … Continue reading →
