In just under two years since its release, Windows 7 has finally surpassed Windows XP in US desktop share: Windows 7 (31.71%), Windows XP (31.56%), Windows Vista (19.07%), Apple OS X (14.87%), all others including Linux (2.79%). The statistics just a year ago in the US were: Windows XP (42.51%), Windows Vista (27.45%), Windows 7 (14.7%), Apple OS X (13.24%), all others including Linux (2.1%).

PRESIDENT OBAMA: AT ODDS WITH CLEAR DEMOGRAPHIC TRENDS TOWARD MULTIRACIAL PRIDE

By using our currency, the rest of the world shares the burden of our inflation and devaluation.

SHLOMO SAND'S "THE INVENTION OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE"
Last Spring, I asked my father over dinner why it was such an outrageous proposition, leaving aside whether or not true, that Judaism is solely a matter of confession, as opposed to an ethnonational identity. He answered with some trepidation "because it contradicts 2,000 years of history." When I went on to concede that for most of Jewish history there existed isolated ethnic-tribal groupings who adopted Judaism - in other words, numerous Jewish peoples - but that the idea that they constituted a single pan-Jewish volk was absurd, my father rigidly retorted "they just are."

Those Jews who, themselves, ultimately express the highest form of anti-Semitism by referring to all Jews in a collective and monolithic manner, exhibit an elitism and chauvinism toward non-Jews, or Gentiles, as blatant as the anti-Semitism about which they routinely complain, a disdain and racist supremacism toward them, who are repeatedly regarded as animals in their sacred Talmud, and an ongoing effort to turn Judaism into a spectacle of self-worship with a perverse and depraved plan to turn Jews as a whole into a collective messiah or anti-Christ, first, via the Holocaust, and later, according to some like Henry Makow, by an even more horrendous Calamity, possibly by Iran, to take place in Israel, where European and other Jews have been gathered into, what Makow calls, the most dangerous and precarious situation to which they have ever been exposed.

It would not be an unfair assumption to say that the majority of Americans think of slavery as an institution peculiar to the antebellum south. And if not thought of as exclusive to it, at least practiced there in a manner uniquely unjust in world history. This underlying theme of slavery as a peculiarly White European habit has been implied by Hollywood and the American media in general.

SPEAKING OF JEWS AND BLACK SLAVERY
With the publication of the first volume of The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews in 1991 came the revelation that before the time of Christopher Columbus and through the European expansion into the western hemisphere, Jews were active participants in the epic racial crimes committed by the "New World's" European invaders. An abundance of Jewish scholarly writings provided extensive evidence directly contradicting the popular notion that Jews had ever been the friends or allies of the suffering and oppressed Black man and woman.

PULP FICTION AND THE BIBLE
Not only have I recently re-evaluated Quentin Tarantino as an artist and decided that he is actually one of the finest writers and directors in film today, and not only have I finally caught up on his filmography, including finally watching Pulp Fiction only sixteen years after the fact, but I even think I would not be exaggerating or over-glorifying his art if I asserted that, like the allegory of Revelation that also plays out in King Lear, we were also meant to see Pulp Fiction in a similarly grand and Biblical context. Complete Article All Articles

I often wonder what the individuals behind the New World Order want. They have had control of earth all through history. They control the money, they control the minds of the unaware. Control is the recurring agenda here. All the evidence combined concludes that they want total control of the collective mind, which is what God is.

2/9/2011 - PATRIOT ACT FAIL!
Extensions to three key provisions of the Patriot Act that will expire at the end of the month, fell short in the House by seven votes of the two-thirds majority required to pass, with a final tally of 277 to 148. Despite a Republican-controlled House, many of the eighty-seven new Republican members, emboldened by the Tea Party, in addition to a number of long-term members, emboldened by the new members, broke ranks with their party and voted against the unconstitutional law. No longer can the FBI legally use roving wiretaps on virtually any person using any device; no longer can government agencies have automatic access to business, library, and other records and "tangible items" of companies; and no longer can they conduct random surveillance on individuals who are not connected to any identified terrorist group.

WELCOME TO THE CONSPIRACY
In a clear sign that the powers that be are getting worried, an article appeared in Vanity Fair recently that explored the world of "conspiracy theories." That is unusual enough. Vanity Fair portrays itself as sophisticated and intelligent, a magazine that embodies the ethos of the East Coast establishment. The one thing it is not is an "alternative" magazine. Nonetheless, in its May issue it jumped in at the deep end with "Welcome to the Conspiracy." Complete Feature All Features

5/4/2010 - FUNGUS AMONG US
A rare, but highly-virulent and life-threatening tropical fungus is spreading throughout the US Pacific Northwest, having already killed twenty-five percent of those infected (though representing only five of twenty). The strain belongs to the cryptococcus gatti fungus, known to only infect transplant and AIDS patients and people with otherwise compromised immune systems. But the new, "mutated" strain threatens otherwise healthy people. Normally found only in Southeast Asia, Australia, and South America, it lives on the bark of trees, and is contracted by inhaling its airborne spores, causing coughing and breathing difficulties. But it is supposedly not contageous. The Centers for Disease Control says those most at risk are people who spend time outdoors, especially in contact with soil, and those who work in construction. Though it has also been found in cats, dogs, and some farm animals. Some are suspicious about its appearance along Interstate 5 and speculate that it would certainly be a convenient and preferred means of intentionally spreading a disease. All Notes

THOUGHTS ON FLASH
Apple has a long relationship with Adobe. In fact, we met Adobe's founders when they were in their proverbial garage. Apple was their first big customer, adopting their Postscript language for our new Laserwriter printer. Apple invested in Adobe and owned around 20% of the company for many years. The two companies worked closely together to pioneer desktop publishing and there were many good times. Since that golden era, the companies have grown apart. Apple went through its near death experience, and Adobe was drawn to the corporate market with their Acrobat products. Today the two companies still work together to serve their joint creative customers - Mac users buy around half of Adobe's Creative Suite products - but beyond that there are few joint interests.

The 3.5" Floppy held only 1.4 MB, of course almost 1,000 times smaller than just a single GB on the newer media. The previous, larger 5.25" floppies, which actually were "floppy disks," held either only .36 MB or, later, 1.2 MB. An 8" version even existed before that.

Whether they were actually built by the Egyptians or, due to their uncharacteristic lack of hieroglyphics and other engravings, were built by an earlier, unknown civilization, is a question for another discussion, but there has certainly been no shortage of theories on the purpose of the Giza Pyramids in Egypt.

Sarah Palin wrapped in the American flag reminds me of a crude saying budding males liked to use to describe its proper function with girls they regarded as ugly, but, to some Republicans, she may be the closest they will get to the kind of prurient pornography and obscenity about which Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart said in 1964, "I know it when I see it."

Sandra Bullock, best remembered for her classy, fun-loving participation in a group "mooning" of people on the shore from the passing boat used during the filming of Speed 2: Cruise Control, and briefly known for the inordinate honors bestowed upon her by the Hollywood wasteland for her portrayal in the racist film, The Blind Side, of a White woman so gracious as to take in such a large Black man as her own (really, how much would Hollywood have fawned all over it had it just been some fat White kid?), and for her perplexing and anomalous marriage to hardcore, cool guy, Jesse James (you know, to "watch her back" - or was it buttock? - we've certainly heard that he does, indeed, like to watch), is soon heading back to the plain, most-likely unmarried state that is commensurate with the actual impression most of us have had of her, as the conduct of Jesse James, in his year-long affair with a San Diego, California stripper, confirms our deepest, unshaken convictions about Miss Congeniality.

3/15/2010 - PINK FLOYD WINS CASE OVER EMI
Despite the overwhelming trend to purchase music by individual song (more than ten times as much as by entire album), Pink Floyd has won an eleven-year-old case in an English high court against record company, EMI, in support of a 1999 contract requiring the intact sale of their albums and forbidding the individual sale of their songs. Though there is little doubt that, in the current digital download marketplace, most lesser groups would be negatively impacted in terms of their exposure to new and younger fans, Pink Floyd will certainly manage. Hopefully, the greater outcome will ultimately be the impact on the relevance of the record companies, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and whatever other entities have done their part to cheat and oppress artists and musicians since the first note was marketed.

You can now pre-order an Apple iPad; but do you really want to, asks Steven J Vaughan-Nichols. "I mean, I get why you'd want an iPad. I'd like one too," he writes. "But," he says, "when I consider that there are soon going to be literally dozens of cheaper, Linux-powered iPad devices on the market, I find it a lot easier to resist putting $499 on my credit card. On top of that, Apple will be including DRM on some eBooks and other iPad content. I really, really hate DRM. All that said, I agree the iPad is really cool. I predict with absolute faith that the iPad and its clones are going to kill off single purpose devices like dedicated eReaders such as Amazon's Kindle and GPS devices within the next three years. How can it not work out this way? For the same price as a high-end dedicated device, you can get a tablet that will do everything they can do and far more. But, and this is the important bit, you don't have to buy an Apple iPad to get all of the iPad's goodies. ARM, a mobile microprocessor power, is predicting that we'll see no less than 50 ARM-processor-powered iPad clones by year's end. And, what will they be running? These ARM-powered entertainment tablets will all be running Linux. Soulskill, from Here Come the Linux iPad Clones, at www.SlashDot.Org, 3/12/2010 Technology Quotes All Quotes

2/25/2010 - CHILDREN'S CRUSADE
The story of the US Baptist group arrested at the Haitian border for illegally trying to take thirty-three earthquake orphans out of the country (none of whom, according to the AP, were even orphans) reminds me of the Children's Crusade. There is much disagreement about how much of the story is actually true and how much is legend. Some say the story is actually a synthesis of two different historic movements, some say the children were probably not as young as once thought, and others say Jerusalem was not even the intended destination. But in 1212 AD, 30 - 40,000 children from France and Germany, based upon a young French or German boy's visions of Jesus telling him to make a crusade to the Holy Land and peacefully convert Muslims to Christianity, mobilized toward the Mediterranean, but the sea did not part as they apparently had expected. Kind sea "merchants" offered many of them passage, but instead sold them into slavery in Tunisia or shipwrecked off Sardinia. The rest died of exhaustion or starvation. All Notes

In three years, when the low-end WiFi-powered iPad costs $199, many households will buy 3 or 4 of them and just leave them lying around the house.

They won't live on desks, the way desktops do, and they won't be carried everywhere, the way mobile phones are. They'll just be there, around the house, on tables and counters, the way today's books, magazines, games, and newspapers are, booted up, ready to use.
