CYPRUS: Overview to accompany the crisis
In
response to a Cypriot’s comment labeling Germany as the evil
conqueror
I can disagree with the 'German part', since of all the EU member states, it was only Germany that knuckled under, went to work and saved money. The rest just threw a party… Read full post »
Francis I: Another Historic First?
The Holy Roman Catholic Church selected the successor to Pope Benedict XVI yesterday and it was, as Dickens wrote, “… the best of times … worst of times.” In this, the Twenty-First Century, I’m sort of wondering if I can take any more ‘historic firsts&rsquo/… Read full post »
Massachusetts Special Election Straw Poll
2 Mar 13, Danversport Yacht Club, Danvers, MA
An invitation was published for Massachusetts Republicans to come out, enjoy some coffee, network and listen to the three GOP candidates for U.S. Senate in the special election ordered by law. Not two weeks ago, the opposition was tryi/… Read full post »
MA-GOP: Special meeting to discuss inconsistencies in the ru
I took enough notes to write a two-thousand word essay, but either the Cliff Note or 'Robert's Rules for Dummies' version might better serve the day. First things first:

Christmas 2012
Over century scored and double that
prior, no One has so influenced so many by presence of thought or
deed as recorded by others for the benefit of all.
Indeed, many have sought what is given unto Him so freely and have
fallen beneath icons erected in their honor so quickly leaving/… Read full post »
Clearer picture emerges with the morning sun
Forget Hoboken, Adam's brother lives there. Speculation that Adam was Ryan grew wildly and honestly since Adam was found dead with his brother's identification of some sort. Nothing new on exactly what the ID was, but there you have it. Ryan was picked up by Hoboken police initially… Read full post »
Off we go!
Fellow Remnasians,
The fault in logic escapes the author and, in turn, shall evade
reasonable thoughts of nearly every reader.
Nock is quick to point out his personal mission; without saying so
or calling it such, was to point out the dangers of the hold-over,
survivor or Remnant.

One will get you five!
There is a big difference between laying out a dollar and getting five back and granting a dollar to the arts so they get five back. We, the People in the Commonwealth, are right to be angry. My opponent made a fuss over the answer to her question, but neglected my/… Read full post »

The 21st Century: FED up?
“…but since they are likely the root of all our evil, you may as well as call it money.”
Nearing its Centennial, the U.S. Federal Reserve is found spending more time kneeling in the board rooms more recently occupied with mathematicians and statisticians seeking a Unit… Read full post »

Recall Blues?
Right,
Wisconsin voted in 2010 and the Union interest was not served by Walker and the slim Republican majority. However, the interests of the people of Wisconsin were indeed served and can now, for a time, breathe easily for as long as it lasts. The loss of… Read full post »
Battlefield America: MA, CA, MD and MI

President Eisenhower: God, Faith, Morals and Values
November 1953, fresh out of hostile conflict with the United Nation's foray as a '[New]World Order] Power' Ike addresses Canada's Parliament. He starts in French and Anglophones are rummaging for their translators.
He breaks back into English to deliver the rest of his speech, some 15 min… Read full post »
Europe goes to the polls – 6 May, 2012
Startling as it may sound, Europe is looking pretty bad from the bottom of the grave they have only a few short years ago, been gleefully digging. One gets the impression that the EU collective sense of arrangement could have been better managed. Instead of ploughs and concrete foundation/… Read full post »

The Blood of Nubians flows freely tonight
A penultimate 'He said, she said' between warring nations. Freedom from Colonial Rule brought liberty and rights to 'South Egypt', the forgotten land called 'Kush'. The saving grace for the natural wonder of a desert wasteland is the confluence of the Nile with the Blue Nile.

Ron Paul or Mitt Romney? Help, Mr. Wizard!
Yes, well RP has a good consistent message all the way down to his whacked-out sense of International relations and aid. No secrets there but there is always that nagging bit about the people surrounding the man who would become overnight VIP, Czar, Cabinet Secretary or judge.

The End Game: Merah One-ups Hollywood.
There is no innocent start to any murderous rampage, battle or war. Each and every time there is a breakdown of communications and understanding, the inner human rage emerges the winner and subsequent actions produce the true hero or villain in us all.

Muslim Terrorist: Standoff in Toulouse – 21 March 2012

Halfway there: Who’s on top? - March 2012
Well, starting off with the field of 8 over a year ago, I knew we would have an endearing discussion on a platform of issues, set firmly upon a bedrock ideology and quickly whittle away at the chaff.
Ron Paul was not on my radar. I had dismissed him based upon… Read full post »
Tesla and the $40,000 throw-away battery
Tesla, the California manufacturer of electric motorcars is a recipient of Obama-administration support cash to the tune of $450M; give or take as much as you wished you could take, is making the news but not in the way it had wished.
Indeed just a little bit of experience in… Read full post »
Tebow: The game doesn’t matter
Yes and no. It is as simple as on or off the field. It was a game, those aptly mentioned in support of Tebow who cannot be on the field and while I'm at it, the other 30 teams who dearly wished they had the chance to lose the SuperBowl.
