Natural News is a moral and intellectual cesspool, but founder Mike Adams may have hit a new low with his vitriolic attack on actress Angelina Jolie for undergoing a preventive double mastectomy and writing about her decision in the New York Times.
The real IRS scandal, Sheila Krumholz and Robert Weinberger write in today's New York Times, is not so much the targeting of tea party groups (though that was bad) but the apparent lack of oversight of tax-exempt groups that were spending major money in the last two election cycles.
Beset by a cycle of bad news that is threatening to stall his second term, President Obama has talked wistfully of “going Bulworth,” according to a report in Thursday’s New York Times.

Hedges: Monitoring of AP Phones a "Terrifying" Step in State Assault on Press Freedom PRINTER-FRIENDLY The Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges joins us to discuss what could mark the most significant government intrusion on freedom of the press in decades. The Justice Department has acknowledged seizing the work, home and cellphone records used by almost 100 reporters and editors at the Associated Press. The phones targeted included the general AP office numbers in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Hartford, Connecticut, and the main number for the AP in the House of Representatives press gallery. The action likely came as part of a probe into the leaks behind an AP story on the U.S. intelligence operation that stopped a Yemen-based al-Qaeda bombing plot on a U.S.-bound airplane. Hedges, a senior fellow at The Nation Institute and former New York Times reporter, ca ...

STOP THE NEW WORLD ORDER! Police state madness - more and more children being arrested for trivial things - things we all got up to as kids: At one public school down in Texas, a 12-year-old girl named Sarah Bustamantes was recently arrested for spraying herself with perfume. A 13-year-old student at a school in Albuquerque, New Mexico was recently arrested by police for burping in class. Another student down in Albuquerque was forced to strip down to his underwear while five adults watched because he had $200 in his pocket. The student was never formally charged with doing anything wrong. A security guard at one school in California broke the arm of a 16-year-old girl because she left some crumbs on the floor after cleaning up some cake that she had spilled. One teenage couple down in Houston poured milk on each other during a squabble while they were breaking up. Instead of being sent to see the principal, they were arrested and sent to court. In early 2010, a 12-year-old girl at a school in Forest Hill ...

Neurodivergence And Its Impact on Social Skills     page 248 of Smart But Feeling Dumb by Harold N. Levinson, M.D. Self-Esteem and Body Image   In my clinical experience, the most important symptoms characterizing dyslexic syndrome are those impairing self-esteem and body image, and thus they are the most crucial to effectively treat and eliminate. Self-esteem is significantly impaired when dysfunctioning inner-ear/cerebellar mechanisms result in even mildly decreased sensory-motor and related memory-speech-cognitive functioning--triggering feelings of stupidity, ugliness, and variations thereof. Most important, favorable responses to inner-ear-enhancing medications and nutrients rapidly lead to improved esteem, irregardless of age or how long these feelings were previously present, suggesting a strong physiological linkage. Also reinforcing this cerebellar-esteem linkage is frequent and even normal response to a motor accident or faux pas: reflexively calling oneself "stupid," "dumb," *** " and eve .. ...

You just have to do a happy little dance when these liberals start feeling stupid. It's easy to tell that President Obama is going through a scandal-ridden “tough time” since he's even under fire from Jon Stewart, host of “The Daily Show” on the Comedy Central cable channel, who said on Tuesday that the Democratic occupant of the White House “can't keep saying you found out about news at the same time as us!” The liberal comedian said he found it strange that the president didn't learn much sooner about the Internal Revenue Service persecuting groups with “Tea Party” or “Patriot” in their names and the Justice Department confiscating phone records about Associated Press reporters. Stewart's first salvo dealt with the fact that during his press conference on Monday with David Cameron, prime minister of the United Kingdom, Obama restricted questions from the press to a “limit of one, total, from the entire American press corps” in attendance. However, Julie Pace, White House correspo ...

Foster carelessness The month of May is National Foster Care Awareness month. There's nearly 500,000 children in the U.S. foster care system who need love and a permanent home. This doesn't count the 27,000-30,000 at risk foster youth who aged out at 18 years young in most American states in 2012 and 2011 and 2010 and 2009 and 2008 etc. By now, most of those kids are parenting, in prison, homeless or dead. The remainder 3%" made it.. Happy birthday you're tax dollars are paying for them anyways! How did the foster care system begin and when? In 1854 - 30,000 innocent orphans flooded the streets in New York City. These orphans were eventually crammed into train carts aka Orphan Trains or Baby Trains by the Catholic Church in good faith that these kids would find forever homes. They were transported west on these loud coal burning trains to vast farm lands all across white America. When the Orphan Train stopped at each depot, ranchers and farmers pinched each kids arm to calibrate how much muscle these litt ...

Wal-Mart Linked to Collapsed Bangladeshi Factory; The Gap Rejects Safety Pact Fundraiser for Walmart Strike Fund Fundraiser for Walmart Strike Fund The retail giant Wal-Mart has been tied to the collapsed Bangladeshi industrial building where more than 1,100 workers died last month. The New York Times reports documents found in the rubble show a contractor had hired one of the building’s factories to produce jeans for Wal-Mart stores. The contract was over a year old, and Wal-Mart maintains it was not using the factory when the collapse occurred. On Tuesday, Wal-Mart reaffirmed its rejection of a plan requiring firms that profit from low wages in Bangladesh to help pay for fire safety and building improvements at factories. Wal-Mart says it is conducting its own safety review of its Bangladeshi factories and will post the results in six months. On Tuesday, six more companies, including Carrefour, Marks & Spencer and El Corte Inglés, signed on to the plan, which requires companies to conduct independent ...

War on drugs revealed as total hoax - US military admits to guarding, assisting lucrative opium trade in Afghanistan Wednesday, November 16, 2011 by: Ethan A. Huff, staff writer (NaturalNews) Afghanistan is, by far, the largest grower and exporter of opium in the world today, cultivating a 92 percent market share of the global opium trade. But what may shock many is the fact that the US military has been specifically tasked with guarding Afghan poppy fields, from which opium is derived, in order to protect this multibillion dollar industry that enriches Wall Street, the CIA, MI6, and various other groups that profit big time from this illicit drug trade scheme. Prior to the tragic events of September 11, 2001, Afghanistan was hardly even a world player in growing poppy, which is used to produce both illegal heroin and pharmaceutical-grade morphine. In fact, the Taliban had been actively destroying poppy fields as part of an effort to rid the country of this harmful plant, as was reported by the Pittsburgh ...

Dear Madam,   I am a soldier, and my speech is rough and plain. I'm not much used to writing, and I hate to give you pain, But I promised I would do it, and he thought it might be so If it came from one that loved him, perhaps it would ease the blow.   By this time, you must surely guess the truth I feign would hide, And you'll pardon me for rough soldier words, while I tell you how he died.   It was in the maw of battle.

But we didn't think it fatal 'til this morning, when he died.   "Last night, I wanted so to live. I seemed so young to go. Last week I passed my birthday. I was just 19, you know. When I thought of all I planned to do, it seemed so hard to die. But now I pray to God for Grace, and all my cares gone by."   And here his v ...

Actress Angelina Jolie's decision to have a preventative double mastectomy has been all over the news during the last 24 hours. If you missed the story, here's a link to her editorial that ran in the New York Times this week: (Photo courtesy of Allure.com)   Why is Jolie's story an important one to tell? We asked Peggy Rogers, genetic risk assessment nurse at the OSF Center for Cancer Care, to help explain:   What is BRCA1? Women with a BRCA1 mutation, such as Angelina Jolie, who have not had a cancer diagnosis, are at a high risk for breast and ovarian cancer. Studies have confirmed that women with a BRCA1 mutation have a 70-80 percent lifetime breast cancer risk and a 40 percent lifetime risk for ovarian cancer.   Why is Genetic Testing Important? A benefit to knowing your genetic test result is to use this information to help protect yourself from developing cancer. Genetic testing is appropriate for families with red flags for hereditary cancer, such as early age of onset of breast cancer (younger ...

Pandas have been kept in zoos as early as the Western Han Dynasty in China, where the writer Sima Xiangru noted that the panda was the most treasured animal in the emperor's garden of exotic animals in the capital Chang'an (present Xi'an). Not until the 1950s were pandas again recorded to have been exhibited in China's zoos.   Chi Chi at the London Zoo became very popular. This influenced the World Wildlife Fund to use a panda as its symbol.   A 2006 New York Times article outlined the economics of keeping pandas, which costs five times more than that of the next most expensive animal, an elephant. American zoos generally pay the Chinese government $1 million a year in fees, as part of a typical ten-year contract. San Diego's contract with China was to expire in 2008, but got a five-year extension at about half of the previous yearly cost. The last contract, with the Memphis Zoo in Memphis, Tennessee, ends in 2013.   Asia China   Many zoos and breeding centers in China house giant pandas. These ...

STIGLITZ / The New York Times   The Great Divide is a series about inequality. TAGS:   COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES, FOR-PROFIT SCHOOLS, STUDENT LOANS,United States ECONOMY A CERTAIN drama has become familiar in the United States (and some other advanced industrialized countries): Bankers encourage people to borrow beyond their means, preying especially on those who are financially unsophisticated. They use their political influence to get favorable treatment of one form or another. Debts mount. Journalists record the human toll. Then comes bewilderment: How could we let this happen again? Officials promise to fix things. Something is done about the most egregious abuses. People move on, reassured that the crisis has abated, but suspecting that it will recur soon.   The crisis that is about to break out involves studen ...

MENTAL RETARDATION Intelligence is a byproduct of genetics and environment. A recent article by the New York Times was very illuminating since Senate bipartisan immigration proposal had recently indicated that Hispanic immigrants were far less intelligent than white Americans. When I was in graduate school of psychology many decades ago, it was very well known the average IQ of certain immigrants in the United States was substantially lower than that of the Indo European immigrants. Hispanic immigrants' IQ range falls within "dull normal intelligence," border-lining mental deficiency. Psychologists administer standardized intelligent tests such as the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). In special circumstances, nonverbal Progressive Matrices or performance tests, such as the Arthur Point Scale. All these test has had indicated Hispanics' IQ were between 80-90, while average American whites IQ was over 100. Intelligence is hereditary and based on genetics. It may be necessary to convert the IQ to t ...

Ever wondered how the romper came about? - The word “romper” comes from the English word “romp”, which in turn could have been a variant of “ramp”, a Middle English verb dating back to the 14th century, meaning “to rush wildly about”. From “ramp” we also get the modern word “rampage”. Quite apt considering the romper’s initial use!… - … The romper originated in France around the end of the 19th century. The one-piece suit was meant as a play suit for young boys up to the age of five or six. - The romper soon spread to the rest of Europe, and with European emigration to the United States at an all-time high, to the United States. - Its appearance replaced an older trend of dressing boys in skirts! - Previously, children’s clothes were not tailored for play. The appearance of the romper signified a change of mentality with regard to how children should spend their time at home. - The earliest known advertisement for rompers appeared in the New York Times, here: down to "In Th ...

HELLO United States of America! "This bill is about protecting animal abusers." by GREY2K USA a page to like Last week the National Greyhound Association (NGA) came out in favor of "ag gag" bills, proposals that have been introduced in several states to criminally charge whistleblowers who record evidence of animal cruelty. In doing so, the group not only launched a bizarre attack on greyhound advocates, but also sided with extreme factory farm interests and animal abusers. These wrongheaded proposals have met a tidal wave of opposition from dozens of organizations including The Humane Society of the United States, the National Press Photographers Association, the National Consumers League, the Southern Poverty Law Center and the American Civil Liberties Union. They have also been roundly criticized by newspaper editorial boards from across the country, including the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, and Boston Globe. Perhaps the most stinging rebuke came from the Knoxville, Tennessee News Sentinel, whic ...
The Coming Banquet for All the Peoples“And Jehovah of armies will certainly make for all the peoples, in this mountain, a banquet of well-oiled dishes, a banquet of wine kept on the dregs, of well-oiled dishes filled with marrow, of wine kept on the dregs, filtered.”—Isa. 25:6.THE world as a whole is not enjoying any banquet of rich foods and drink now. Rather, the world is getting hungrier year by year. This dangerous fact is continually being pointed up by the reports published of famines, food shortages and undernourishment in large areas of the inhabited earth.2 For example, disquieting reports have been coming from that great subcontinent of India. Newspaper headlines of October 10, 1964, read “INDIA’S GRIM CAPITAL—Food Shortages and Water Pollution Aggravate Tempers and Peril Health.” (New York Times) Earlier, or on August 2, 1964, the headlines read: “Hunger Grows in India—Major Crisis in the Nation Is Feared as Population Growth Outpaces That of Food Production.” This is not du ...

Four Reasons to Worry About the Potential Koch Takeover of Tribune Co.

If their bid is successful, the Koch brothers won’t just have a strong influence over the laws we all live under and the climate we pass on to the next generation, they’ll be publishing the news we read. The New York Times confirmed earlier reports that Charles and David Koch are pursuing a bid for the Tribune Company newspapers, which include the Los Angeles Times, the Orlando Sentinel, The Baltimore Sun and many others.

Who Are the War Criminals in Syria? By Pat Buchanan May 08, 2013 "Information Clearing House" - Last week, several polls came out assessing U.S. public opinion on intervention in Syria. According to the Huffington Post poll, Americans oppose U.S. air strikes on Syria by 3-to-1. They oppose sending arms to the rebels by 4-to-1. They oppose putting U.S. ground troops into Syria by 14-to-1. Democrats, Republicans and independents are all against getting involved in that civil war that has produced 1.2 million refugees and 70,000 dead. A CBS/New York Times poll found that by 62-to-24 Americans want to stay out of the Syrian war. A Reuters/Ipsos poll found that by 61-to-10 Americans oppose any U.S. intervention. But the numbers shift when the public is asked if it would make a difference if the Syrian regime used poison gas. In that case, opposition to U.S. intervention drops to 44-to-27 in Reuters/Ipsos. Yet on the Sunday talk shows and cable news, the hawks are over-represented. To have a senator call for a ...

Ann Althouse writes that the New York Times decision to exploit a tragedy in Kentucky calls to mind the behavior of the Westboro Baptist Church people.. I wonder how hard Gabriel tried, catching ladies leaving stores, calling people up, creeping around the casket. I wonder how he felt about himself. After the funeral service, two men advanced across North Main Street toward a single television crew present, from the German network RTL, and punched the cameraman, bloodying his face and knocking him down. Two other men told a newspaper reporter, “If you had any sense, you’d get out of here. You’re next, buddy.” Ah, so the media did get some satisfaction. How long did they harass these poor people before they tipped some grief-stricken man to say what they knew somebody ought to say? I'm assuming one man said that quote, even though the article says "Two other men told..." (as if we are to picture a unison declamation). The reporters at the funeral call to mind the Westboro Church protesters, who tar ...

Today's New York Times carries a story about the President's 'red line' on the Syrian use of chemical weapons: how that line appeared and how it disappeared. There are many aspects to this story, but most appear in these brief paragraphs:
Salman Rushdie writes in the New York Times on 27 April: We find it easier, in these confused times, to admire physical bravery than moral courage — the courage of the life of the mind, or of public figures. A man in a cowboy hat vaults a fence to help Boston bomb victims while others flee [...]

They Never Learn By Michael Brune Shell, the Wile E. Coyote of oil companies Normally, it's my job to argue that drilling for oil in extreme and fragile environments is a bad idea. Lately, though, Shell Oil has been making the case better than I ever could. It started in February 2012, when Royal Dutch Shell preemptively sued the Sierra Club and our allies to stop us from saying that the company could not safely drill offshore in the Arctic. (That'S like Wile E. Coyote suing you for saying that he could not safely falloff a cliff.) If the potential consequences weren't so serious, Shell's subsequent Arctic misadventures would be almost cartoonish. Last June, then-interior secretary Ken Salazar indicated that Shell would be permitted to drill for oil in the Chukchi Sea off the coast of Alaska. According to the New York Times, Salazar "believed the company's claims that it could collect at least 90 percent of any oil spilled in the event of a well blowout." Shell soon clarified that it could not actually re ...
London, November 10, 1942 New York Times, November 11, 1942. I notice, my Lord Mayor, by your speech you have reached the conclusion that news from the various fronts has been somewhat better lately. In our wars, episodes are largely adverse but the final result has hitherto been satisfactory. Eddies swirl around us, but the tide bears us forward on its broad, restless flood. In the last war we were uphill almost to the end. We met with continual disappointments and with disasters far more bloody than anything we have experienced so far in this. But in the end all oppositions fell together and our foes submitted themselves to our will. We have not so far in this war taken as many German prisoners as they have taken British, but these German prisoners will, no doubt, come in in droves at the end, just as they did last time. I have never promised anything but blood, tears, toil and sweat. Now, however, we have a new experience. We have victory-a remarkable and definite victory. The bright gleam has caught t ...
