Secret diary of Rody Molloy - (USA)
Monday Headed off to Croke Park at lunchtime for the Employment Fair just to show my face. The place is crawling with media and stinks of Lynx. My sinuses are playing up really badly. Left at about 2.30 and headed home for a bit of a lie down. I’m entitled to that much I think. If I’m not firing on all cylinder I’m good to neither man nor beast. All work and no play makes Rody a dull boy. Curry for dinner. Herself does it lovely with the real curry from the chipper. Lots of paperwork to b

Obama's Energy Triangulation - (USA)
With the possible exception of health care reform, no major issue presents more political opportunities and potential pitfalls for President Barack Obama than energy. A misstep over energy policy could cause serious economic, social and political consequences that could continue over the next decade. To succeed in revising American energy policy, the president will need to try to triangulate three different priorities: energy security, environmental protection and the need for economic growth.

How will RAW deal with the death of the Swati Prabhakaran-Bait Mehsud - (USA)
Bait Mehsud eliminated The death of Mr. Bait Mehsud the Indian agent tells us a few facts that need to be analyzed. It is important to note that Mr. Bait Mehsud was injured during the operation in Swat. Rumors of his death had permeated the airwaves for several weeks. It is pedagogical to note the fact that it was a CIA drone which was eventually able to eliminate him. The CIA hit and the death of Mr. Bait from whatever source does identify the ground reality that there is a clear congrue

Is there a shortage of oceanographers? - (USA)
My father (Hi, Dad!) sent me this NYT article on the Rutgers University glider program . Gliders are little ocean-going robots that dive down, take measurements, and surface to email their data back to you. Since ship time is so expensive, having a glider noodling about on its own is incredibly helpful in figuring out what the ocean is doing. The NYT article definitely brought home the “gliders! yay!” message, but what excited my father was this: Through its novel glider program, Rutgers i

The Rise and Fall of Phrenology - (USA)
Recently, my sister sent me a paper she wrote on phrenology to proofread. Being the wonderful older brother that I am, I obliged, after all it's not a subject I'm overly familiar with and it was definitely more up my alley than the women's studies papers I often receive to read the morning they're due.For those who didn't grow up in Victorian Europe and are otherwise unaware of this particular "science", phrenology is the determination of a person's personality and mental capacity according to t

The Scientific Benefits of Breastfeeding - (USA)
There are a great many Web sites and studies out there that talk about the benefits of breastfeeding. Like much of the stuff on the Web, they have been written at different stages in time, may or may not have been updated, may be based on science or may be based on what someone heard from their neighbour. In short, you can’t believe everything you read online. Breast is best. Or is it? All of the major health authorities in the world say that it is. The American Academy of Pediatrics

Caine reveals Italian Job ending - (USA)
The mystery of The Italian Job's cliff-hanger has been resolved after almost 40 years by Sir Michael Caine. The 1969 film ends with a gang of gold thieves hanging over a ravine in a bus. Every step they take towards the loot threatens to tip them into the abyss. "Hang on lads, I've got a great idea," says Sir Michael's character, Charlie Croker... and then the credits roll. The star says he would have saved them by "switching on the engine", burning off petrol until it righted itself

Are There Too Many Women in Medicine? - (USA)
Imagine being asked this question at a job interview, as a male or female candidate. To answer ‘yes’ is to acknowledge that there are more female than male doctors, and to assume that such a disparity is detrimental to medical education, clinical practice and research. Consider this question from the perspective of clinical students in their penultimate year of undergraduate study, with job applications imminent; approaching the crossroad between education and employment. This is the position

Toronto Real Estate Prices to Show Modest Growth in 2009, CMHC says - (USA)
John Pasalis in Toronto Real Estate News The Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation anticipates a more balanced real estate market in Toronto for 2009 with sales expected to drop and prices expected to see modest increases. A couple of the factors driving the slowdown in sales include a decline in employment and wage growth in the year ahead. The inflation rate is also expected to drop to roughly 1.4% next year offering consumers some relief. The CMHC is forecasting sales in the Greater

12 more years? - (USA)
That’s not a reference to the recently-gone-private blogger who formerly blogged at Have a Gneiss Day (lemme guess, earth science). She called herself 17 more years , then updated (upgraded? downgraded?) to fifteen . By the way, she was fully anonymous, until some jerk indicated in the comments section that she was outed amongst her colleagues. Now she’s blogging privately. I don’t know how to avoid that problem. I don’t want to private-blog. I don’t know how to stay anonymous. And I don

ESSAY: HISTORY OF OBLITERATION OF SIKKIM AND ITS PEOPLE: - (USA)
Posted by barunroy on November 30, 2008 FROM SURVIVAL SIKKIM ( I ) The process of obliteration of Sikkim and its people was initiated by the British in the late nineteenth century. Sikkim left with the Chhogyal was conquered by the British in 1888 and was partitioned in 1890 by entering into a convention with Imperial China. This was done all for obliteration of the ethnic Sikkimese Bhutias. The British plotted changing Sikkim demographically with their Gorkha ally. The territories of Sikk

Class struggle - (USA)
From John Wight in Scotland Bertolt Brecht reminded us that it’s a far greater crime to own a bank than to rob one. Events over the past few months have emphasised how right he was. They also illustrate the fact that we don’t need a war on poverty in this country. Instead we need a war on the rich. To put it another way, when a small coterie of obscenely wealthy bankers can plunge the global economy into crisis with their greed and lack of social responsibility, then subsequently be handed
