Google Insurance: Why? Because You Will Need It

The boys at Google are in the news again. This time they are experimenting with drone aircraft. Google wants to get into parcel delivery.They are running tests in Australia. That's not like downtown New York or San Francisco. I guess they want no costly mistakes . After all "What could possibly go wrong with micro drones delivering parcels in an urban setting?" Of course it 's unarmed and like its name suggests it doesn't have a pilot on board either.Its purpose is to deliver packages.That makes FedEx and UPS potential collateral damage.Google has faith in technology. They are the guys that want us all in driverless autos. Also they want us to wear Google Glass so instead of thinking we just do a Google Search. Maybe we will get distracted just a little bit so we also buy something when searching. Are these guys greedy?Any way. The articles that I have reviewed all start the same way. Google's driverless car or Google's drone delivery project..... And then immediately in the next paragraph comes the question. "No one is quite sure of liability questions". But suppose Google all along wanted to get into the insurance business.That's how Warren Buffett made his swag. He took insurance premiums and played the stock market.Why would any one need insurance? No pilot on board! No driver in front seat! That's why you want insurance.

Ebola Virus Directly Challenges African Exploitation

Gorillas in the mist or malls with ample parking? Mother nature and her Ebola virus says she wants Africa to keep her dress on. Mainly China is trying to rape Africa. China long ago went through her own natural resources and replaced those areas with humans. Approximately 1.25 billion humans.Bad trade.China started out looking somewhat like Africa. But not any more.What face does nature show to China and all others who would enter her Africa's "Heart of Darkness'? It's the fruit bat.The Ebola Virus, named for a river that runs through Zaire and the Democratic Republic Of The Congo, resides in a dormant state in the blood of the fruit bat. When the bat eats fruit it contaminates the fruit. When a primate comes a long and finishes eating the fruit then the chimp or gorilla contacts the Ebola Virus. Enter the human. Because of the exponential population growth and accompanying malnutrition humans eat "bush meat". whether it be primates, a quasi-cannibalism,or other small mammals. Those mammals , some of them, have contacted the fruit bats Ebola Virus and so it goes.Hopefully the Chinese and other persona non grata like animal poachers and other "developers "will stay out of Africa with the fruit bats help.

Should United States Grant Asylum For Palestinians? Or Should America Bomb Israel?

Today a twelve story apartment building was leveled in Gaza City.Israel used American-made F-16's to destroy the building and kill a few Palestinians as a bonus. It's like shooting fish in a barrel.Next door in Syria the U.S. is making plans to bomb ISIS militants who are using Syria as a base of their operations in Iraq. Syria's Assad gets an American Air Force to do his work. Because ISIS is also attacking Syrian forces. Back to Gaza. Gaza and its 1,8 million inhabitants are running out of infrastructure. Sewage disposal has been bombed by our Israeli allies. Also water and critical medical supplies and facilities have been bombed as well. Does a pandemic of infection wait to make things worse?The U.N. says as many as 500,000 Gazans have been displaced.The facts in Gaza speak a slow motion torture on top of a collective punishment action used by our "ally" Israel. America reaches out to similarly situated victims around the world.In Iraq we bomb ISIS for Israeli-like aggression against Iraqis.Which brings up the question. Should we grant asylum to the Palestinians or would it be simpler to cut off aid to Israel? And if Israel doesn't listen, should we bomb Israel?

How many Nations Has The United States Bombed?

There are 193 member states in the United Nations.Perusing the list left me with roughly the calculation of approximately 154 nations that we as a nation at one time or other have been at war with officially or bombed or fought gratuitously .The fields of battle are too long to list. But a few stand out as stupid engagements. World War I, Vietnam and Iraq immediately come to mind.Iraq is particularly stupid because of its justifications used by our administration.Who can forget WMD ? Weapons of mass destruction were certainly possessed by Saddam Hussein.Why? Because they found invoices and had pictures of "aluminum tubes". There were surveillance photos taken at 60,000 feet of mobile homes that certainly were command and control centers for missile firings of presumed nuclear or chemical or biological weapons. And what about "yellow cake" from Niger? We had Dick Cheney's word that was the smoking gun of nuclear fission war heads.History has pointed out all that evidence was spun lies.Now we have a new yarn to re-invade Iran.ISIS beheaded a journalist.It did happen but the yarn is ISIS will soon be beheading people around the world.That wont happen.But the fact already has given Syria's Assad the use of America's Air Force to help him fight ISIS in Syria.No one will talk about collateral bombing damage.The powers that be want everyone to focus on the beheading as justification for eternal war.

Pentagon Bombing Again : Yahoo

Just when the Pentagon thought it would have to sit out the war in Iraq things changed.An American reporter was beheaded and the monkeys at the Pentagon are loading the bombs and making plans for more boots on the ground in Iraq.Gingerbread decorated General Martin Dempsey, Chairman Of The Joint Chiefs,proclaimed that Syria would now have to be bombed also.Before this general wanted to bomb Assad forces. But now Dempsey wants to bomb anti-Assad forces in Syria.These forces are the ones who are causing all the trouble in Iraq.How will Dempsey and his monkeys at the pentagon know who they are bombing in Iraq and Syria? Does it matter? Not to him .Too bad bin Laden missed the Pentagon and got the Twin Towers.

Beyonce In San Francisco: Only The Noise Is Remembered

Some pre teen darkies and their single mothers enjoyed Beyonce at the August 8 performance at AT&T Park.But they are the minority. Most media reports are featuring not the song and dance numbers but the sound levels of the bass.Four miles away!Multiple calls into the Giants Park home stadium and comments on Twitter evidence the disruption. Music? No. Disruption? Yes.I think its fair to say that women didn't need their vibrators. They just screwed on to a door knob and went along for a free ride courtesy of the "singer" and her main man monkey handler Jay Z. Whatever the fuck "Jay Z" means."Assault on the skull" was a typical remark about the decibels. For those of you who were outside the four mile zone of ground zero a close analogy would be having a face on our moon depicting Hillary Clinton or George Bush or Nelson Mandela. It's not the place. This past Wednesday is yet another example of how monkeys and technology never cease to give lie to the "advanced state" of our species. It matches up with earlier low points like the atomic bomb drop on Hiroshima and the "All are Equal" bullshit.

Airbnb Crowds Out First Time Home Buyers And Renters

Home ownership is increasingly elusive. Whether it be the higher credit score needed or increased down payment or income to expense ratios that are in stone. But before all those hurdles the biggest hurdle of all is the melt up of home prices facilitated by easy money Fed policies. Easy for whom? Hedge funds with access to credit markets are now more than ever before to be the cash buyer of homes. They in turn either flip it or rent it. No way is the money manager going to move in.Now comes Airbnb. Similar to a geeky chimera of Genghis Kahn it changes the calculus of home ownership for an individual and puts home ownership out for bidding against the prospect of renting a home out to OUT OF TOWNERS. For example San Francisco real estate already exalted receives another bubble boost of effectively promising an extra income possibility. Under the new math possibility a typical one bedroom can be rented for $200 per night-roughly $6000 per month income.But the mortgage and expenses add up to only $3000-4000 per month.Looks like a good deal to the new class of Airbnb inspired who are similar to a somewhat humane Great Kahn's roving horde. These newly rich buyers who wouldn't think of living in a one bedroom now salute Airbnb. Genghis Kahn had his mandarins albeit on horseback. Do you think that G.K.'s pals could preemptively deal themselves in on Kahn's droppings at the feasting table and scope possibilities and position themselves appropriately? But where does that money come from? There so much money in circulation that finding places to store it can be a problem.

Airbnb San Francisco: Make Yourself At Home And Don't Worry About The Neighbors

Airbnb is rolling out in San Francisco. San Francisco, where people leave their hearts and find new experiences.The night life that carries over to the next day is more apt to happen here than any other swinging city. Meet new people. Have a ball.Raise the roof. But what about the neighbors? Don't give it a thought. Airbnb has the fix in at a politically friendly City Hall. Already the Planning Commission is rolling back decades old common sense residential neighborhood conforming codes so Airbnb can bring out-of-towners into the serenity of quiet neighborhoods.Parking? Not a problem. Use what's available.Screw the block.Who are the neighbors going to complain to? There's no front desk at Airbnbn rentals. Late party noise? So what. Airbnb has no clerk standing by to hear complaints.What's a neighbor who has lived there for years to do to these yahoo's from out-of-town? Knock on the door and tell them to be quiet? Well that could be the beginning of a vigilante event but only if it's backed up by some credible threat. It's not old fashion, " A man's home is his castle." Sounds like a good plea of self defense in court.

Progressive Philosophy And Ebola Asylum

Two American aid workers infected with Ebola are being flown from West Africa to the U.S. Ebola is 40-80% lethal. Casual contact can infect. The plane being used carries only one patient at a time. Think about that for a moment. The implications of cost and contagion exampled by a single large jet carrying only one person. Ebola is an extension of our embracing/normalizing HIV/AIDS. The whole of a person outweighs a part even if that part has the power to destroy disproportionately . It all started with the outlawing of critical thinking way back in 1964. Progressives in government taught caution to students about drawing personal conclusions. In fact teaching was followed up by punitive law suits if the student didn't go along and include any one. And I mean ANYONE. Progressives peddle a philosophy that no matter if you are in death row or are infected by ebola we are there for you. Meanwhile the will to power by bacteria of all sorts including Ebola has been granted asylum and a kind of citizenship in the U.S.

Population Control And Protein Search Convergence Solution

Recent articles about Mainland China's slip shod attitude towards food processing gives one pause for thought.A recent article includes fox substituted for donkey. UGH!. Another recounts old, somewhat rotten chicken meat being resold as fresh to McDonald Chinese franchises. Fox vs donkey shows clear rape the environment philosophy.Rotten chicken shows value of money versus human health consideration. The ambient background is China's overpopulation.Food processors at some point will connect the dots and deliver up excess Chinese to excess Chines as a stabilization tactic.

Netanyahu Claims Civilian Deaths In Gaza Are Mostly Human Shields: He's As Bad As The Nazi

How did Nazi Party Minister of propaganda Joseph Goebbels whip up hatred for the Jews in the run up to the extermination camps. He portrayed them as sub-human.How does Benny Netanyahu of Israel answer critics of his mostly civilians deaths in the Israeli Gaza assault? He calls the dead mostly " human shields". Israel's bombardment of Gaza which is no bigger than 1/2 of Washington D.C. includes, naval gun boats, air-to-surface missiles, artillery, tanks, mortar and ground troops.By definition these types of weapons are for mass killings on a battle field. But when used in an small urban setting the result is constructively as bad as the gas chambers in Nazi Germany during the holocaust. Massive damage is inflicted randomly.Israel is committing war crimes and should be shunned by civilized nations.

Russia Sanctions: Are they Really Trade Wars?

Does any one really think that governments around the world care about people more than they care about their own jobs and salaries? Therefore are the sanctions against Russia really in fact a form of trade war? The trade war is designed to shore up local business by getting competition out of the way and get prices up of commodities like oil.Our recovery has been slow. And we teeter on deflation. Sanctions could be short term fix.

Mosquitoes Are Not Politically Correct

Over the weekend saw reports of Massachusetts experiencing life threatening cases of Eastern Equine Encephalitis. Oklahoma documented West Nile Fever. Florida claimed Chikungunya infected residents. Mosquitoes are the carriers of the three African originated diseases. Mosquitoes aren't on no-fly lists passed out by TSA. So they hitched a ride on a jet and made use of the jet stream in coming to America.Would an attorney plead a case for asylum for mosquitoes fleeing fly swatters in West Africa? If there was money in it ,I think so. Why are West Africans who carry multiple diseases in their gut and blood welcome when the mosquito is not? The mosquito is vilified and exterminated when possible. But the West African human might get into politics and introduce laws to make it easier for other diseased immigrants to come to the U.S of A. Mosquitoes fly under the radar of political correctness. They just do their thing.At the same time we advanced organisms give our open arms to politically correct refugees.Mosquitoes will figure in the next world wide government. our PC democracy may not.

No Water In Gaza But Plenty Of Sewage : What's Obama Going To Do About Israel?

Today Israeli Air Force deliberately bombed Gaza's only water source. Also Israel deliberately bombed Gaza's sewage treatment plant.A humanity crisis is hours away. What does Obama think? He hasn't said anything.He has the executive authority to with hold U.S. foreign aid to the Zionist state. He could sanction Israel on a daily basis with portions of that aid embargoed until water is restored and sewage plant is operational again. He could do many executive decisions. Yet he hasn't even spoken out against Israel's war crime.He's not up to the job of president or commander in chief or simply giving a reasonable opinion. As for israel, history will continue to show why Zionists should be segregated and shunned.

Personal Power : New Laws Needed To Protect Land And Animals

The Endangered Species Act, The Environmental Protection Agency, The Clean Water Bill, Society For The Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals ,and laws to protect the sea and its inhabitants have done a lot of good to mitigate the degradation of our planets flora and fauna. Yet bird and fish stocks have plummeted 70-80% in the last thirty years. Slaughter of Rhinos, elephants, lions, whales and other hapless creatures are well documented. The Passenger Pigeon is extinct. That birds fate could be the fate of many others if laws are not put forward to stop the waste of land and animals. We are almost 7 billion in numbers. Most shouldn't have been born by a quick look at the cost of their maintenance. Our life is cheap compared to the disappearing fellow inhabitants that we kill or degrade their habitat without a second thought.Hopefully in the future well meaning people will have the power to execute on the spot abusers of land and animals. NO TRIAL. JUST DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE IS ALL THAT WILL BE NEEDED TO KILL OFF THESE BARBARIANS. SELF DEFENSE IS THE JUSTIFICATION FOR FORCE.

Pope Francis In Italy: No Work Sundays Should Be Rule

Pope Francis is in Campobasso, Italy today. It is a region of Italy that has chronic poor. He spoke about shops and business' being opened on Sunday.Although it was only Saturday. He rhetorically asked " Is working on Sundays true freedom?" He 's the guy who lives in the splendor of what's left of the most precious artifacts of the Roman Empire.He's telling people who live from day to day about knocking Sunday off as a work day. Well it's this way Frank, if your flock isn't going to work on Sundays who will feed them? Maybe that will be the basis of another victim speech for another time.How about telling the faithful if they aren't going to work on Sundays then they should refrain from conceiving children on that day also.Less victims should be the goal.

Caliph Abu Bakr Al- Baghdadi Meets President Barack Obama

Last week the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) blew up the main Syrian border station between Syria and Iraq. Immediately self proclaimed Caliph Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi declared the rebirth of the historic Islamic Caliphate.The Caliphate existed before the Ottoman Empire ruled those parts of the Middle East. The Ottomans lost control of those lands to the French, British and Russians in WW I. The Sykes-Picot Agreement redrew the map of the Middle East and the rest is history. Meanwhile back in America.Our President Barack Obama who could be compared to a shoe shine boy who only stoops to polish the boots of the military-industrial complex sent in 500 "advisors" to Iraq. That number will grow as their mission will almost certainly expand to pre debacle Iraqi levels. Which means another debacle is on the way. The new Caliph could be compared to 1960's civil rights activists. They too burned and killed to get respect.Life is nothing if not ironic. Our shine boy now fights a enemy in another part of the world who share the same roots as he.

Hedonist Felix Dennis: Deathbed Conversion

Felix Dennis recently passed away . He was 67. Considering his lifestyle staples of cocaine and booze which demonstrated the sine qua non for his type of counterculture writing and publishing which included pornographic takes on the children book "Rupert The Bear". But in the end those habits brought him a wretched death of cancer. And so an enlightenment occurred near his passing. He willed the bulk of the profits of his media empire which amounts to a significant portion of the gross $ 340 million per year to the reforestation of fifty thousand acres in England. Last year saw the millionth tree planted. It has become the largest contiguous tract of forest on the Isle. The tree was there all along. All the while Dennis was making a fool of himself , he ended up wanting to perpetuate the dignity of a tree.

Copper Short: Crowded Trade, Could Be Short Squeeze Coming

Interesting article about "net short" in copper futures contracts reported today in Wall Street Journal .Net short means that of all the contracts "long" and " short" in copper futures the net position is short bet contracts on the physical copper commodity.When did eveyone have it right about the direction of anything except time? The catalyst is the thesis that copper in storage at Chinese port of Qingdao is in jeopardy of being forced to sell on the open market. The reason is the loans have gone bad and crditors will want the collateral sold to pay back debt. Sounds feasible. But what would happen if not as many loans actually went bad? Or what if , and this my gut feel, that the metal in storage is securing more than one loan! The Chinese are known for cooking the books. If that were the fact then from over supply estimates an actual under supply exists. Of course whatever the facts turn out to be the demand for copper now is more because of greedy hedge funds. Time to buy a some copper.

The Magazine Vanity Fair : Dull People and Dull Topics

How does a magazine with its historical roots in writing about interesting, educated and dare say cosmopolitan people survive now in its own self imposed choosing of featuring only politically correct people? How could it? What about the rest of the people and their non PC views and lives that could be interesting, educated and dare say cosmopolitan. The magazine precludes expanding its circulation by sticking to narratives about a limited group. This months edition starts with an editorial by Graydon Carter about how California's Proposition 8 which banned same sex marriages was struck down. That sets the tone . It's a tip of the editors hat to the readership. No harm will come to them if they renew their subscription now. More good stuff about gay rights. BORING. That was followed up by a show and tell by Jason Segel. Which to sum up his banal answers only proved to me that if you are Jewish and have a Jewish agent you will succeed in Hollywood. All you have to do is show up on the set. Do Jewish agents put new validity to the saying a star is born! That is if the baby is Jewish. Next comes an article on the best seller " Capital In The Twenty-First Century". It's about redistributing wealth. A book to curl with up on a cold night or maybe take it with you on that cruise around around the world.Then comes a section about teen stars.Questions are kept as simple as the ones asked of Jason Segel. Like Instagram or Twitter? Favorite TV show? Miley or Taylor? And then it gets worse.Then comes an article hinted at in the editorial by Graydon Carter. It's about the usually confrontational lawyers of David Boies and Theodore Olson both of Gore vs Bush Florida court fame.In this article we all are to gush how these two opposite cultural spectrum guns-for-hire joined forces to strike down California's Prop 8.We are encourage to thank the gods or Harvey Milk that we were alive to see this act of gay rights triumph.For me they can go fuck themselves. Next comes an article about the Dubai over the top airport.I thought these liberal types were environmentally conscious? The rather lengthy article show cases why al qaeda has a motivated base.And then there is an article about "artist" Jeff Koons of "Baloon Dog " fame. He appears nude. And that was that. There was an article about Clare Boothe Luce which if one read between the lines told the story of a girl who learned from her promiscuous some say prostitute mother how to sexually please men. Clare parlayed that ability to become sucessful in a number of incarnations.Somethings never change. And that pretty much covers it. By the way my wife will not be renewing.
