ARE THE HEADHUNTERS RIGHT?

A multitude of events this past
week provides convincing evidence that the world in general,
including vast numbers of Americans, and the majority of
voters in California, is going certifiably insane.
That 53% of California voters made it illegal to
require a pregnant teenage girl to tell her parents about
her having an abortion is way beyond moral
depravity. We’re into organisms perilously close to no
longer being normally human.
Then again, what sort of human bond can you feel towards
rioting barbarians in France, savages who behead Christian
girls in Indonesia, or suicide bombers in Iraq, Jordan, and
Israel? I could multiply further examples of insanity – such
as Harry Reid and his Democrats who hate George Bush more
than Moslem terrorists – but instead let’s talk about a case
that just appeared before the Supreme Court, Gonzales v.
O Centro Espirita Beneficiente Uniao Do Vegetal, and
the connection between religion and hallucinogenic drugs.
Doesn't that sound like more fun? So get set, for this is
going to be a mind-blow. |

TO THE BIG HOUSE INSTEAD OF THE
WHITE HOUSE? |

That the Washington Post is traitorously on
the side of the Jihadi terrorists and against America was
further demonstrated on November 2nd when the
paper ran the front page headline story,
CIA Holds Terror Suspects in Secret Prisons.
To disclose supremely classified information that the CIA
operates a number of prisons for Jihadis in Eastern Europe
is an unbelievable compromise of national security. The WaPo
reporter who wrote the story, Dana Priest, should go to jail
for treason, along with the WaPo editors who approved it.
The CIA has requested a formal Justice Department inquiry
into the source of the classified information to the press.
The House Intelligence Committee has announced it will hold
hearings to investigate the leak. This is infinitely more
serious than the Plamegate farce.
Note, however, that the Senate will not, as of yet, hold
hearings. That’s because the leak to the WaPo has been
traced to..... |

This is a companion piece to
A Younger Brain from last March. That discussed how a
nutrient called SAM-e (S-adenosyl-methionine) can actually
youthen your brain. Now we’re going to talk about it can
youthen your body.
The older you get, the more creaks and aches and tightness
and soreness you get, particularly in connective tissue like
cartilage. Our bodies aren’t designed to last as long as we
live today, and these tissues wear out. Unlike rheumatoid
arthritis, which is an auto-immune disease, osteoarthritis
is a mechanical wearing away of joints, cartilage, and
connective tissue.
I started taking the SAM-e regimen described in A Younger
Brain for mental benefits. For some time, however, I was
increasingly afflicted with sciatica and a variety of aching
ailments. After about a month or so on the regimen, I
noticed that the sciatica and ailments were gone. Gone as in
completely vanished, gone as in I felt many years younger.

THE WAR FOR THE FREE WORLD

Not too long ago, the
conventional wisdom was that Europe would emerge as a
unified and mighty economic and political superpower. We
were told it would engage in earnest, if friendly,
competition with the United States, but that -- thanks
to its substantially larger population and productive
capacity -- the European Union (EU) would inevitably
displace America on the world stage.
It took less than a fortnight of rioting in France, and
now in several other countries of what Donald Rumsfeld
has called "Old Europe," to lay bare the
preposterousness of this prospect. Even before Islamists
took to the streets of Paris' suburbs, the EU was a
house of cards waiting to be toppled or burned down.
As usual, underlying conditions are clearer with
hindsight. It is now unmistakable that Europe faces a
"perfect storm" of socioeconomic, demographic, military
and Islamist challenges.

When, seven months ago, I
finished writing my book,
The West's Last Chance, London had not been attacked
by Islamist terrorists, the Tate Museum in London had
not removed an art exhibit because it offended radical
Moslem sensitivities, and France had not yet experienced
the explosion of violence from elements of its Moslem
population in its "no-go zone" communities.
The fact that I predicted all those events in my book
was not the result of clairvoyance. It was merely the
result of a normally intelligent person looking at the
facts, and their rather obvious implications, without
the blinding effect of a politically correct mentality.

Get ready to take action on something
you’ve been putting off.
Some of you are great at business, you get to your work,
you complete your projects, and you accomplish your
goals on time and with exceptional competence. Some of
you get to the logistics of daily life heroically and
consistently, getting the kids to their destinations,
taking care of projects, answering phone calls.
But for many of us, there is often something that we
just haven’t found the time for. It may be starting an
exercise program, it may be a creative project, it may
be spending more time with your family, or it may be
taking the time to reassess your work or the trajectory
of your life.
Whatever it is for you, if you really want to make this
thing happen, and you are ready to make it happen,
here’s what you can do to get to it now.

POLITICAL NASDAQ - November 4-10,
2005
|

The DDI remained up this week and the
Nasdaq ended the week up about 1.5%. The overall theme
this week was the successful demonization of the
Republican Party. Building on the Libby persecution, the
Democrats moved their Evil Eye on to Big Oil. By
Thursday the Republicans were in full retreat -
abandoning the budget cuts and drilling in ANWR.
This is a strategy that has worked well for the
Democrats since the Nixon era. They had already imposed
the image of Republicans as crooks, by publicizing
indictments against DeLay and Libby. Then they repeated
the same underlying image in hearing against Big Oil,
where they accused the executives of no less than
murder.
By the time the elections came around, the image of
Republicans as crooks had been pounded in for some time.
Being a Republican had become downright embarrassing, as
if Republicans were forced to say, “I am a Republican,
but I am not a crook.” The Republican turn out was
depressed, and the results were awful, especially in
California where even the most moderate and reasonable
initiatives were defeated.

In certain movies and TV shows, the
background music is almost as important as the show
itself.
Music plants itself in the mind and memory as no visual
image can, so a movie or TV show about life in the
Sixties will, as a matter of course, have background
tunes to evoke memories of the era. It's amazing how
long-forgotten songs can bring back powerful memories -
and, of course, sell more tickets. Proving that, in the
final analysis, what we really get when we buy a CD is
an "experience" - a memory and a feeling that can last a
lifetime.
And that's all we need, as far as Sony Music (known
nowadays as Sony BMG) is concerned. In what can only be
termed a "scandal," it was revealed last week that the
Sony people took extreme steps, to the point of
jeopardizing customer's computers, to ensure that the
only thing you'll retain when playing one of their CDs
is the memory of the music - and not, heaven forbid, a
copy of it.
