When I read headlines like: Deaths as Israel storms aid ship or Israeli Massacres Go International; Commandos Kill 16 Free Gaza Activists I despair. And then to read the vitriolic comments for and against the action, my sense of desperation grows. I feel more strongly for the underdog and I can not fathom why such …

Synthetic life – It’s just about money.
It would be comforting to believe that the production of synthetic bacteria in the laboratory is going to accelerate cures for disease, replacement body parts and sympathetic engagement with nature. But that is not happening. The positive hopes are the marketing headline. The reality, proven by the track record of Venter and his hairy faced …

Israel bombs Gaza
War again. Enough!
There was some hope that the bickering and belligerence in teh middle east might be addressed by the US, which has financed much of the anger, but apparently not. Israeli planes have carried out 13 air strikes on the Gaza Strip. Disgusting. Only one side can stop this. The overdog – Israel. Are you not …

It’s still the same old story. Despite economic recession, trillions of your euros, dollars, clams being spent to prop up the financial system, the prevalence of abuse by fiduciaries has not declined.

Repo 105 – it’s still out there.
A report on the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy came out today. It’s ancient history really, because to happened a year and a half ago. But it’s relevant today to remind us of the obfuscation that we endure from banks, politicians, the boss and others. Simply put, Lehaman fudged its financial performance by selling assets prior to …

Yes, it’s true. GMO deception is spreading fast and soon agriculture will be jeopardised by transgenic pollination of GMO alfalfa. If you thought the economic crisis was bad, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet. How about famine in America.
