The former Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili – on the run from the Georgian authorities on charges relating to his forcible dispersal of anti-government protest in Tbilisi in 2007 and his seizure of the Imedi television station and the other assets of the deceased Georgian oligarch Badri Patarkatsishvili – and stripped of his Ukrainian citizenship by a decree of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko dated 26th July 2017 – continues to thumb his nose at the Ukrainian authorities by travelling around eastern Eur
I’m seeing more and more articles urging parental alarm at how much screen time our kids are getting. Why, in our day, kids played outside. With real life friends in meat world. We rode our bikes without helmets and knee pads. We were concussed on the regular and we LIKED it! Built character. Today’s youth are ruining their brains with all this screen time!

It's been a busy news day. Below is the information I'd mentioned as forthcomingWell, it's here.......... Yup, an Australian jihadi, via a video made in Raqqa, urges ISIS adherents to strike at the Philippines. And Australia too! Australia being an afterthought. The Philippines being the main attraction. Coinciding with the US desire to strike the Philippines as mentioned in yesterday's post?

Unless one lives in the alternate reality of religious beliefs, it has become impossible to deny and ignore a simple fact: very soon, perhaps within only two decades, humans will join the crowded groups of endangered species. While polar bears, lions, and elephants are solely the victims of men’s cruel and reckless stupidity, humans are collectively both the perpetrators and the ultimate victims of a self-inflicted mass genocide.
From Hiroshima To Hamburg By John V. Walsh | Dissident Voice | August 8, 2017 This week marks the 72nd anniversary of the criminal US bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The strategic point is that reshaping national attitudes against Obamacare is easily within reach, and it always has been because the law is a bad product. Even Democrats will agree with that privately because Obamacare was designed to fail and therefore lead to a single-payer system. So Republican senators need not be so fearful of public backlash against a repeal vote.

As I've been mentioning, repeatedly. It's been consistently cooler here in my neck of the woods.This has been the case for years now. Gone are the weeks of heat warnings we used to have in the 80's and '90's. We have not had one day, thus far, of extreme heat never mind regular heat. Toronto had a day or two of heat alerts in June 2017. No "extreme" alerts.Toronto is a giant heat magnet...

While many in global media focus on Turkey’s relationship with its neighbours, reports have generally neglect the fact that Turkey’s relationship with China continues to grow in a generally positive trajectory.
Turkey remains one of Eurasia’s most important supporters of One Belt–One Road along with Russia and Iran and recently Turkey’s Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu affirmed Turkey’s willingness to strengthen fraternal relations with China during a meeting with China’s foreign minister Wang Yi.
Before Vatican II, multiple popes and councils allowed for governments to persecute “heretical” Christians. That is to say, every baptized person who’s not an orthodox Roman Catholic. In fact, Catholic kings used to promise to do just that as part of their coronation oaths. At Vatican II, the Church denounced this policy, and said that it violates natural law.

When Donald Trump was running for the office of US President, many in Russia viewed him with cautious optimism. He was seen as a breath of fresh air by many who were shocked by the level of Russophobia which underlined Barack Obama’s failed presidency as well as that which was amplified in Hillary Clinton’s failed campaign.
Costa Rica is hoping to make a dent in the trillions of plastics polluting the oceans and the environment by becoming the first country to ban all single-use plastic products by 2021.
Some U.S. cities, states and other countries have either banned plastic bags or are working on a plan to do so, but that only touches the surface of what Costa Rica wants to do. Forks, lids, coffee stirrers, water bottles, and a multitude of other products would be prohibited under the ban. [1]

Eggs contaminated with a potentially harmful insecticide were imported from Europe and have been distributed throughout the United Kingdom and other countries, according to England’s Food Standards Agency (FSA). [1]
The number of eggs containing the insecticide fipronil, used in flea and tick products, is thought to be very small, thank goodness, but grocers in Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, and Switzerland have had to pull millions of eggs from store shelves as a precaution.
It is believed that fipronil was used on chickens in Belgium.
It is said that Wilde’s play was insanely popular in his day (it was Murray Rothbard’s favorite!), and I can see why: it was a send up of the elites that wanted to freeze or rollback history – an affectionate one but it was still cutting and devastating. The message seems to be: we should live in a world in which we can all be what we want to be, with nothing standing in the way of the realization of our highest and best ideals. We are all artists, and our lives are the canvas.
