The first minute all we see is the sailboat's flashing beacon. The voices you hear belong to my son, my daughter-in-law, my wife and me. At the 1:10 minute mark you can see the sailor and you will hear my wife scream as she mistakenly thinks the sailboat is about to tip over. You can hear how heavy the rain is coming down.

Young Blacks are caught in a Catch-22: they can't get jobs because they don't have a good education, because they can't get jobs they turn to crime, because so many end up in prison they can't get jobs when they get out, because they father children just before going to prison, their children grow up in fatherless, poverty-racked households (you can't rightly call them homes); partly because of that environment, their children's educational opportunities are impacted negatively, then because of poor education and the high numbers of Blacks in prison and their lack of zeal in participating in "white" America, those children cycle through the exact same scenario as their fathers.

Justice David H. Souter, writing for the majority, said a search of the girl's backpack and outer garments did not offend the Fourth Amendment's ban on unreasonable searches. But the pills, each no stronger than two Advils, did not justify an "embarrassing, frightening and humiliating search."

Although the cause of Michael Jackson's death will not be known for several weeks, the Los Angeles County Coroner was able to determine that Michael Jackson was 89% plastic at the time of his death.

Paris Hilton now 28, this week launched the Mideast edition of her "Paris Hilton's My New BFF" series in the glitzy sheikdom. If you were born before 1950, BFF stands for best friends forever. If you were born 28 years ago, a BFF should last you about two weeks.

Ian Dunt tells us that "The debate over animal welfare is misguided. Where human need clashes with animal rights, humans must take precedence."

We can expect in the coming weeks to be deluged with analysis of Michael Jackson's finances, the custody battles for his children, the creditors suing against his royalties, and speculations of the cause of his death.

At 3:30 this morning I awoke from the shaking of the Norwegian Dawn as it was backing up against heavy winds and torrential rains. I went out on the veranda and saw spotlights on a small sailboat that looked on the verge of overturning.

Today we'll be leaving on vacation for Bermuda, a country with a population just 10% larger than the city I live in, Bayonne, New Jersey. Despite those low numbers, Bermuda is the third most densely populated place on earth.

In this youtube video we see that it is possible to boycott Israeli products if you don't mind living in a tent and your lifestyle isn't much different than it was in the 7th Century.

In my article 13 Beautiful Muslim Women I show what happens to Muslim women from Pakistan and Bangladesh who have the nerve to ask their husbands for a divorce: they get acid thrown in their face. Rarely does the husband even get arrested, let alone convicted.

On Wednesday Brig. Gen. Michael Walsh, with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, was testifying at a hearing at the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works hearing when he began to answer one of idiot Sen. Boxer's questions with "ma'am." Boxer arrogantly immediately cut him off, "Do me a favor, could you say 'senator' instead of 'ma'am?' It's just a thing, I worked so hard to get that title, so I'd appreciate it, yes, thank you."

Has a gloom gathered around your life? Has some former friend been particularly spiteful toward you? Has the downsize demon descended on your place of employment? Has some nasty bank foreclosed on your ancestral home? Did the love of your life abscond with your life savings and leave with your best friend?

Japan in 1940 was 85% to 95% Shinto or Buddhist. After decades of American occupation, the numbers haven't changed. 64 years after surrendering to us, there is no white/christian dominion over Japan. The culture has remained Japanese, they still write in the same script, and the only real difference is that thousands of years of belligerent dreams of world conquest have been redirected toward productive and peaceful ventures.

Former U.S. President and current idiot Jimmy Carter is on a visit to the Middle East which includes stops in Syria, Lebanon, Israel, and the Palestinian Territories in order to collect blood money for his bashing of Israel. In the West Bank, Carter was awarded the Palestine International Award for Excellence and Creativity. If you don't know what that means, it should be noted that the so-called Palestinians do not create and have not created anything worthwhile in their entire history (which is a little over 40 years).

Sometimes, you cause your own problems. When I was a child in the 1950s, a standard doctrine of common law was that if a person was injured in part due to his or her own negligence, that is to say, their negligence "contributed" to the accident, then they would not be entitled to collect any money damages from another party who supposedly caused the accident.
