If a drone comes too close, swat it with a shovel

Fri. Jun. 22nd, 2012  |  Forrest Johnson

The drone was following me closely. Too closely. It’s not the first time. They’re getting to be like mosquitoes. Hovering about the town checking on the miscreants and then heading up to the border to see what’s going on.

This Big Bang Says This Country Is Ending With A Whimper

Fri. Jun. 22nd, 2012  |  Ed Raymond

Sally Quinn has not written a “political” column in the Washington Post for some time, but in my view dropped a very powerful bomb in the middle of Washington last week with “Sally Quinn Announces the End of Power in Washington.” Actually my favorite political commentators are all women.

Clarence Jordan, Conscientious Objector to War and Killing: More Lessons From the History of American Fascism, Racism, Militarism, and Economic Oppression

Fri. Jun. 22nd, 2012  |  Gary G. Kohls, MD

This year, 2012, would have been the 100th birthday anniversaries of Koinonia Farm’s courageous founder Clarence Jordan and his equally courageous life partner and wife Florence. Koinonia Farm, founded in 1942, is 70 years old this year. Koinonia was an innovative interracial farming commune that was set up according to the New Testament model of the pacifist, socialist early Christian communities formed in the first generation CE, based on the ethical values of Jesus of Nazareth. Those communities were described in the Acts of the Apostles. Jordan often referred to Acts 2:44 as his inspiration in establishing Koinonia Farm. The passage says, “And all that believed were together, and had all things in common; and sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.”

Afghan Taliban And The American Taliban - Is There A Difference?

Thu. Jun. 28th, 2012  |  Ed Raymond

We know what the Afghan Taliban is all about. This Taliban is a fundamentalist Islamic sect of male vampires who suck the blood from a culture by placing themselves atop a “religious” pyramid where they sacrifice women for their own enrichment and gratification. Women are chattel to keep barefoot, preg

Some Countries Warn About Cell Phones, U.S. May Follow Suit

Thu. Jun. 28th, 2012

The cell phone next to your brains is in the news again. The FCC has decided to review the 16-year-old regulations that govern the amount of microwave radiation they are allowed to emit. Because the current reg’s were put in place in 1996, long before cellphones became nearly an appendage especially among young people and children, FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski has suggested a formal review of updated science.

The Odd Irony Of The Economic Tides

Thu. Jun. 28th, 2012  |  Forrest Johnson

Here in Bristol Bay we are waiting on the fish. A cold winter and spring have left the landscape slowly warming as the subarctic summer sun arcs across the sky, right now hidden by rather thick and persistent cloud cover.
