Don’t Drink Foo Foo Drinks, Don’t be Fooled by Foo Foo Budget Cuts
I don’t drink Foo Foo drinks except on rare occasions – there’s plenty of good reasons. One is that they are generally more expensive because they are blended, have those toy umbrellas and such, and you never know the alcohol content. So when [...]

A Panda Baby Step Back
Hoppe at Panda’s thumb backs off a bit from his case for NCSE’s approach after further analysis and debate, and once again I support his conclusion with the added information.
Just as ID should not be taught in Science class, NCSE should not be suggesting means to reconcile science and religion, but [...]

Gay Marriage, Swine Flu, and Dissension in the Ranks of Evolution Supporters

What if it Were Happening in America? (updated)
There’s a big blogspat going on and as usual Charles Johnson is on the right side of the truth. He’s calling out the neo-nazi backgrounds, associations, and political partnerships between the Euro-Supremacist groups organizing the Pro-Koln anti-mosque movement.
The Paleosphere has risen in defense of Robert Spencer and Pamela [...]

How Anti-Vaxxer Madness Leads To Dead Babies
This is horrid, but I recommend that you watch it.
The next is anecdotal and from my experience, not a study and not truly empirical evidence of anything: I come from a family of five children, all who got every vaccination and innoculation known to man because we were Army [...]

Mime jokes aside, Lamar Alexander gets things right in this video even though I disagree with him on some other topics (notably TRACS.)

Hamas Terror Tactics in the Gaza Strip
This video released by the IDF demonstrates the terror tactics employed by Hamas, their infrastructure and their logistics. The tactics include civilian shields, booby traps designed to take out civilians as IDF forces enter, and “shoot and scoot” urban warfare similar to that seen in Iraq. Urban warfare tactics [...]

“The Butterfly”
The last, the very last,
So richly, brightly, dazzlingly yellow.
Perhaps if the sun’s tears would sing
against a white stone. . . .

For seven weeks I’ve lived in here,
Penned up inside this ghetto.
But I have found what [...]

Israeli Air Force at Auschwitz
Tomorrow is Yom HaShoah – Holocaust Remembrance day, here’s a video from 2003 of a ceremony to remember what it was, as well as what will ever be truer. Out of those dark furnaces came new resolve, new courage, and ultimately a resurrected nation.

Redbuds in Spring
I took this yesterday morning, it’s one of the higher branches on our redbud tree against a blue sky. This morning skies are drizzling rain from grey firmament so Kasey is moping. The sun will be out later and she will convert to her evil alter-ego, Miss Muddypaws, who likes to create paw [...]
