The failure of every war, especially by the USA, is that as soon as we hurt them, the media cries Uncle Sammy give me my mammy. We turn foe to faux friend and give them money to be good.

Maybe Merkel, from East Germany, remembers what it was like to have her parents load a wheelbarrow of money to buy a loaf of bread. Obama thinks everybody just needs to add more yeast to make more yeast-shit, ethanol, to make the bread lighter and easier to carry back in the wheelbarrow, except if there’s a breeze, so bring a line to tie me kangaroo down, sport.

History
Although not perfect, the love of individual freedoms and rigorous defense of children and democracy, Israel and her people have earned our respect. We hope that they will continue to respect us, as we try to play diplomat games with no real focus on the prize…that of keeping Israel and the rest of freedom-loving democracies safe and prosperous.

One of the finest eulogies I have read. I didn’t know Ron Silver, but I would have liked to. There is also something in considering Him our Maker. 35 million differences in the genome from the Chimp, it’s quite a work of great nuance. I hope we keep it that way.

Oh those Frenchies. Paul Dirac was another one, all frustrated because the electron didn’t commute. No it liked the suburbs. NOT. Dirac was born in a castle, and ended up at Florida State University. He came to Trinity in 1969 and lectured in an elequence that was humbling, humble and beautiful. I asked him if Time had mass, and he smiled and said… show it mathematically...

I remember fishing on a mountain lake in the early morning, alone. Got a bite, pulled up a deflated yellow orb, about 1 ft. diameter. Puzzled for a second, then I realized some hands were holding on to it. A head, about 6-8 ft. high rose up out of the water…with a not so...

I was just thinking that in the BEC, the relaxation at absolute 0 temperature provides a waveform, that being a two-dimensional expression in the 3 dimensional field, much as we are a 3 in a 4 field, and perhaps g-d is a 4 in a 5 field.
And quarks are these guys who strike others at nodes or openings or connections, being positive or negative, constructive or destructive. ...

The science writer, from MIT, gives a compelling argument for believing in mysterious eventspace. My one comment is Stephanie’s misleading statement in the 3rd paragraph that it’s the coldest … more than a million times colder than the space between stars.
The fact is according to NASA, deep space is about 2.7 degrees K warmer than absolute zero, not a...
