ORGANICS

07-06-2006 12:31

A thoughtful complaint to Sainsburys Supermarkets Ltd. regarding their lack of a serious organics policy, given that many people will only encounter organic foods in large corporate food chains. I bypassed appealing to conscience in favor of pointing out various self-serving reasons to take organics seriously. (I have included it as an attachment as the color-coded version is easier to read.)

Breaking news - Bin Laden did 911 is 'whacky conspiracy theory'

07-06-2006 11:20

Many people decry 911 sceptics on the basis that they "have no evidence" for their theories. They claim themselves to be rational and sensible and 'conspiracy theorists' as nuts, idiots, and tin hats. Now we have the FBI saying they have no evidence that Bin Laden did 911, that is, Bin Laden did 911 is a conspiracy theory.

The big boys have yachts. The small boys have row boats

07-06-2006 07:33

I mentioned at the beginning that the big boys have yachts and the small boys have row boats. Could I suggest that both are vulnerable to shifting tides and the threat of being sunk. It is about time we spoke up and took the necessary action that would sink the rotten ship 'HMS Howard' and end this government's increasing militarisation of the region and his gunboat diplomacy. To not do so will only send us on a voyage from which no one will return unscathed. Let alone our Timorese brothers and sisters.

A Guided Tour of Class in America

07-06-2006 02:53

BE: It's partly that the evangelical churches have reached for these things, and then there's the faith-based approach coming from the Bush administration where the dream was: Let's turn all social welfare functions over to churches. A lot of the megachurches now function as giant social welfare bureaucracies. I wouldn't have found this out if I hadn't been researching Bait and Switch and gone into some of them, because that's where you go when you want to connect with people to find a job. That's also where you find after-school care, child care, support groups for battered women, support groups for people with different illnesses. As government helping functions dwindle, the role of the churches grows. What's sinister is that so many of these churches also support political candidates who are anti-choice, anti-gay, and -- not coincidentally -- opposed to any kind of expansion of secular social services.
