Can Alaska be Made "More Respectful and Caring"?

Here is my number of words limited comment  on a news op/ed...

https://www.adn.com/opinions/2017/05/07/how-we-can-make-alaska-a-more-respectful-and-caring-place/#civil-comments

Constant change and cold weather can make Alaska in some respects a tough social environment. Alcohol abuse is as high as it gets. It can be tough to get work in Anchorage. Village women that visit Anchorage can be subject to pressures from weather that others might not in warmer places, and of course the general social level may not be stellar in some cases.

Peter Maas wrote in his book ; Crude World, The Violent, Twilight of Oil, how reliance economically on one natural resource corrupts government and obstructs diversification and independence for ordinary people. Alaska relies on oil and politicians stole the PFD first thing when oil revenues declined and they were demonstrably incapable of running a state budget with intelligence, diversification and good ecological economic policy. The state needs an income tax for a citizen-financed government rather than an oil dominated corporate trophic clave.

Primarily women should pursue political-economic benefits for all people to better society rather than just for themselves. Divide and conquer; defeat in detail; that's how globalist win. Ban NPR.

President Obama Nominated Gen Flynn (ret.) to Lead Defense Intelligence Agency 2012

Retired three star General Flynn being grilled by the media must wonder about the thanks one gets for military service from the media. Flynn's record is pretty good and he worked within the Obama era for the military and to lead the Defense Intelligence Agency following the President's nomination. President Obama Nominated Gen Flynn (ret.) to head Defense Intelligence Agency 2012

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_T._Flynn

C.B.S.'s story on the general doesn't do much to help clear up Flynn's reputation publicly speaking. The media seem to be trying to trim Trump with hi association to Flynn and through Flynn; the Russians!

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-reiterates-claim-that-flynn-received-security-clearance-from-obama-administration/

Flynn retired from the Army in 2014 after 33 years of distinguished service. After the President, Congress and Supreme Court forced homosexual marriage upon Army and the nation it must have been very tough to continue to serve.

Evidently the general, according to his wikipredia biography, differed politically from the administration on foreign policy somewhat. Generals move into the political realm if they are high enough and if they really don't agree with the President's policies such as building up conflict in Syria then  friction will grow.

It is a shame the Michael T. Flynn has to receive such public relations toasting so soon after retiring from the military. Russia is something of a common combatant in arms defending against Muslim terrorists and meeting with them was not a bad thing-especially since the Obama administration has done whatever it can to create bad Russian-American relations.

Politics has deeper root causes that the public never really learns. When Trayvon Martin was killed President Obama said that he could have been the son he never had. When two Boston doctors were slain by Bumpumim Teixeira former President Obama who received the Profiles in Courage from the Kennedy's the day before, did not say that Bumpumim Teixeira was like the son he never had; politicians choose carefully who they want to identify with.

General Flynn was a reasonable choice for the job of National Security Adviser. Apparently his main fault that is tarnishing a stellar career for any ordinary soul, was failing to disclose his payment for speaking in Russia. If he had been as famous as President Obama who just got a half million or so for a speaking engagement from his Wall Street admirers, everyone would have known without need for  disclosure.

Former General Flynn's talk was not any sort of criminal or espionage related activity. Speaking for even the Russian media isn't a thing one does if trying to conceal payments from foreign enemies or even occasional friends like the French. He said that he believed he did not need to disclose the payment for public speaking, and that probably is true. It seems as if the real problem with the general is political and concerns Syria and Muslim terrorism.

Probably President Trump should pardon Michael Flynn and restore him to some sort of decent job. The USA. cannot really afford to toss people like that out with the trash.

A Philosophical Approach - Theoretical (video) excerpt

I read for about 20 minutes from my book of generally philosophical essays and made a voice-over select images video. Incidentally the book is free to download from my author page.  http://www.lulu.com/shop/garrison-clifford-gibson/a-philosophical-approach-theoretical/ebook/product-23138671.html

Colbert & CBS's Liberal Hate Speech

Stephen Colbert's duel-worthy 'joke' wherein he said that the President of the United States' mouth is Vladimir Putin's penis holster, exemplifies the decline and corruption of the mainstream media in America with its gutter standards. The network of Walter Cronkite truly has evolved into a bottom feeder on the of the ladder of indecency.  At the least Mr. Colbert should be fired.

http://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/what-can-the-fcc-do-to-colbert-over-trump-joke/ar-BBAN6aj?li=BBnb7Kz

The msm (main stream media)is a perverting device for the left and global corporate corruption of all things American. That is why off color and politically incorrect statements offensive to the left result in the quick dismissal of media perpetrators or even CEOs in the private sector, yet leftist mouthpieces like Stephen Colbert can hide behind the law, a leftist high court, and assault POTUS verbally. If Mr. Colbert worked for Soviet broadcasters in the 1980s that would be expected a little, although I believe they were not nearly as scum-like in language selection as Mr. Colbert. Democrats such as Senator Al Franken have used comedy for advancing politics before, It is unfortunate that CBS gas taken the low road toward advancing the Redstone agenda.

Why So Many Christian Sects Exist

Not an encyclopedic deliberation; merely part of the reason why.

I believe the will to power is a primary stimulative agent for the promulgation of new sects. Historically there were doctrinal differences in the first centuries of the church that caused schisms. Christology for instance; Pelagianism and Arianism, leading eventually to long term identity differences in the politics of Vandals, Carolingians, Germans etc., yet for Protestants following persecution of Lollards the ease of starting a new church to keep the dollars rolling in, after the initial break with the Papacy, became too obvious. It should be recalled that the ministry if one goes on the Levitical paradigm should be just 1% for non-working priests (10% from each head of family every third year divided three ways). Once the easy life of commercial Christianity appeared phat even rock and roll burn outs got into it.

If Obamacare Had Failed in the House Today

Expanding the existing V.A.hospital system and networking that with the nation's low-cost clinics for the poor and homeless would be a better, more effective way to construct medical treatment infrastructure from the ground up. The ultra-rich want a finger in every pie and prefer the corporate health care system that Nixon-Obama-Romney and Pelosicrats forced on the nation saddling youth with a vast new tax to pay for treatment they don't generally need.

Congressman Ryan's job as Tom Clancy role model/Jack Ryan Speaker verisimilitude political action figure was in jeopardy if the repeal bill failed.  Even so, a patriotic, glistening new practical approach is needed rather than the bureaucratic b.s. complications of papercare with flummery for the rich as it is.

The cost of treating Iraq and Afghanistan veterans including p.t.s.d. will be in the trillions over time. There is no reason to just pay that to the corporate world who can tart another conflict whenever receipts are down.

Boston Racism and Maslow's Pyramid

Egregious Bostonian racism has hit the news recently. Evidently at least one fan of the hated Boston Red Socks hated on some Baltimore Oriole outfielder throwing speeches of a dissing sort at him. The Orioles won that game yet dissing under the influence took bigger headlines. Thus I shall consider the matter that might in a reasonable world have been left simply to Boston and matters of Bostonia.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2017/05/03/a-flea-market-of-racism-black-athletes-on-playing-in-boston-over-the-years/?utm_term=.42852213a3d8

Charles Darwin the famous dead naturalist (not the cotton candy salesman of South Beach) was of the opinion that the origin of the species was fro primeval dirt, or molecules or at least very small animals. I mean small in stature rather than spirit in the context. Under the influence of the almighty and the physics of the cosmos (not the one with Carl Sagan or an evolved line of physicists that have followed in his tracks) dirt happened and was thrown all over in a hyper-inflation from a primordial singular zero-dimensional point. The dirt was not actually that advanced to start with.

 Before about 300,000 years after the zero-dimension singularity nothing except hot plasma existed. When it cooled a little and light escaped particle-wave began forming piling up stuff like a garbage pile with complexity and forms. Hydrogen fused and cascaded helium and more complexity grew from the initial zero-dimensional waveform of what I shall  call the word to start. In time (time started with the mess strewn about in the beginning) clumps of particle-waves became stars and physical forces attracting everything to itself (gravity) were moderated by repulsive forces necessary to let orbits exist without immediately contracting back to the singularity.

Orbits of electrons and atoms sometimes were locked down in molecules and isotopic varieties of atoms that were elements. Elements combined and recombined in larger shapes and forms. Some of these were of artistic merit. Piles of metals molded with heat ans shining like bright objects in a gallery sometimes appeared in desert like spaces devoid of live yet with form at that point. When the Universe allowed enough time for stars to grow and die blasting themselves into more star parts of elements of exotic sorts since they had been under such extreme heat, pressure and cooling, planets of such junk formed with gravity and eventually some of the inanimate dirt paradigmata became more complex and reactive to things such as light. The order ‘let there be lamas’ could not have occurred with the prior phrase ‘let there be light’.

In the wild kingdom the species that arose before the invention of monosodium glutamate found themselves challenged by other species to perpetuate themselves often absolving nutrients that were living species. Before any sort of thought about the civil rights of other species arose in multicellular animals, even before the Buddha discovered enlightenment under a tree hit upon the head by a falling apple, animal life regarded other non-species animal life as grocery items for consumption. Homosexuals and the U.S. Government forced same-sex marriage upon the public in order to avoid the challenges of differences that exist in the wild  kingdom and pursue such political policies when they can. 

No matter, this is a comment about the racism in the Bostonia paradigm such that rival baseball teams are sometimes also regarded as rival species. Human beings have followed the wild kingdom practice of eliminating rival species since their earliest times, before they even reached the stage of modern humans. The genetic forebears of human beings were killers of any sort of rival specie for hundreds of thousands of years. In  fact in the wild kingdom there were probably no pacific species.

In Boston some of the species rivalry can still appear, shockingly. Different caress are regarded by some as different species. Same species are generally tolerated (hence the Supreme Court approval of same-sex marriage) while rival species are put down. Evolution has not occurred at the same rate in all human beings, and some prefer the natural kill of rival approach to life that of course leads in time to death.

Those against protection of wildlife and species diversity personify the current state of non-conscientious or subdued  citizenry that regard wildlife as an externality to business or actually as a consumable grocery for business profit. Extrapolating from the pyramid of simplification ala’ Maslow where beginning with a broad base and wild kingdom that was healthy humanity exploits and exterminates its way to the top.

The alpha chem lawn guys with a good check for disbursing poison for exterminating life may dream of being unleashed to wipe out rival and morally inferior species. They may pour chemical nutrients upon grass that would better be replaced with natural local plants. The dream of eliminating rival species to create a shag-carpeted utopia is what some people imagine the true destiny of the race (fill in white, brown black yellow or whatever i appropriate. With) no rival species and they attack themselves with same-sex marriage, nuclear,  chemical or even biological war (what irony!).

Then, after the last human has stopped breathing, there will be no joy in Mudville.

Kitty Hawk Flyer; All Electric Ultralight Pontoon 'Copter

Google's Larry Page backed development of an interesting new flying boat. It is an ultra-light and reminds me of a surface effects craft derivative morphed with drone technology. Maybe it flies over land as well as water (about 10 feet in the air apparently). It seems like a practical way to get around in some remote locales, or would be if it has a fuel cell for recharging the battery.

Such an ultra-light vehicle could be adapted to lunar and possibly Martian exploration. Instead of using propellers for lift pushing air, some sort of very lightweight condensed mass could be expelled through nozzles at high speed downward-perhaps lunar regolith or dirt-making refueling inexpensive.

When the made-in-knock-off land version is released in a few years the general public will be able to afford it for somewhat more than a deluxe kite.

Propaganda from the Washington Post

This Washington Post article seems more like propaganda than quality journalism. The American civil war for instance, was not an historical inevitability. War is not the only way to resolve political differences. It is true that the left hates Andrew Jackson and many of the founders because they did not support the LGBT agenda. Jackson wasn't a dictator and probably hadn't the power to coerce southern aristocrats much if he wanted to in order to end slavery.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2017/05/02/trumps-right-wing-populism-is-built-on-historical-amnesia/?utm_term=.8f9498bcc1c1

Jackson did have a big heart and was shot through it carrying a bullet around within it the remainder of his days after battle. Anglophiles hate Jackson for kicking British butt at New Orleans.

The left of the Washington Post hates ordinary Americans that want a nation, a great nation, to contunue within the one nation with liberty and justice for all paradigm of the framers.

Civil War in Syria Followed Veiled Burka Ban of 2010

Civil War in Syria Followed Veiled Burka Ban of 2010

Post hoc ergo proper hoc need not be always wrong. While causality such as David Hume saw it may be wrong due to complexity and the inexorable march of Universal entropy, Syria’s ban of the face veil may have stimulated conservative wahhabist attacks on the Assad-Alawite government.

Women are worse off in Muslim countries than any other because they are lost without the Lord Jesus Christ. Additionally, Muslim countries are dangerous paces for women to be with 4 to 5 times the violence of non-Muslim nations.

https://wikiislam.net/wiki/Muslim_Statistics_-_Women

This webpage may be a kind of why Turkey banned wikipedia

Because women are in poor shape in the Muslim world the long range future of those nations isn’t good. First women then homosexuals will subvert their ruling and social elites seeking to become those in-themselves. Women taking the top of the chicken coup rungs might be a improvement over the way it is in the Muslim word arguably.

Hijab head scarves probably made it easier for women to survive in a barbaric warrior and nomadic culture. The sublime porte of the Ottoman Empire was just repressive and opportunistic and putting down women was as easy as being predatory on young boys and making slaves of Europeans. Maybe in a really depraved and corrupt empire women actually niche in a little better than non-insider guys; that’s hard to say.

Maybe the U.S. civil war could have been avoided if Abraham Lincoln had a black ops team capable of rendition of all southern slave leaders secretly and or assassinating them and offering support for candidates to office against nullification; that’s hard to say. One could write a thousand novels with alternative 19th century history where smart politicians found ways of not having civil war. Today the United States seeks to create civil wars to replace leaders that don’t support mandatory burka wearing in some nations evidently, or at least they did during the Obama administration. Even so smart politicians (I know-an oxymoron) could balance the federal budget, not stimulate foreign civil wars, and have full employment with the majority of the people taking the majority income of the gross national product.
