Maybe it's because I'm in Italy so often-- or maybe because my all fresh vegetables tomato sauce is so amazing-- but everyone has been asking me what's going on with neo-fascist multi-billionaire Silvio Berlusconi. First the good news: Thursday, the court of last resort for the old crook said his conviction for tax fraud and sentence (four years, already reduced to one) will stand. He can't participate in electoral politics for the next six years.

With Ramadan winding down, Baghdad was again targeted in a series of evening bombings. At least were 57 killed and another 161 were wounded there and across Iraq. One of the fatalities, a suicide bomber, was discovered to be a Saudi national.

The moment Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas agreed to send emissaries to Washington to discuss the resumption of 20-year-old peace talks, the objective of the talks was achieved. To anyone not in a coma, it is clear that these talks will not lead to peace, and in fact might not even lead to peace talks, merely to talks about resuming talks.
What, then, is the objective of the talks?

For only the second time I have decided to post something from another source. Fukushima is a serious event. I would suggest in addition to the medical advice given below by Dr Sircus that you reduce the possibility that radiation from rain water contaminates your food supply by  sprouting seeds. Getting together with others to raise food indoors in green houses and in aquaponics would be a great thing to do. Some have more time and less money but others have money but no time to contribute. You must reduce your exposure to rain if the rain drops are radioactive.

"We can't have a prosperous economy," explains former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich in the video above, "without a large and growing middle class." Over the weekend, his column dealt with the Republican Party's systematic sabotage of the economy. They're opposing policies that grow and sustain the middle class and they're pushing an agenda that pushes more ordinary working families into economic distress and poverty. Reich focuses on the GOP's obstruction of every attempt to improve the jobs situation.

State “civil-forfeiture”(CF) laws aimed at drug kingpins are being twisted to confiscate the property of people “never charged with a crime,” The New Yorker magazine (August 12) asserts.
Example: a Philadelphia couple fighting a home eviction after their son sold a small amount of marijuana to an informant.
What’s more, a high proportion of the victims appear to be African-Americans and Latinos, the magazine says.

Apparently, the threat is both serious and specific. The United States ordered 22 diplomatic missions closed and issued a worldwide travel alert for U.S. citizens. The threat comes from Al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, AQAP, the most lethal branch of the terrorist organization. “After Benghazi,” said Sen.

There are more than 7 times the number of Irish folks in the U.S. than there are in Ireland-- almost 35 million people. All of them are descendants of immigrants. Over 11% of Americans come from Irish ancestry-- and almost 13% of New Yorkers; on Long Island, the number is over 13%. Adjoining Lake County (Illinois) and Kenosha County (Wisconsin) are high among counties where Irish immigrants are settling today. Lake County is split between conservative New Dem Brad Schneider and an Establishment Republican, Randy Hultgren.
