House of Reps
Glad they had a busy day. I heard the discussion on this resolution on CSPAN. I'm in the process of trying to find it.

A Gem from CNN
I know we don't "like" posting other people's blogs, but this is pretty cool. An article on cnn brought it to my attention.
This Is Hella Awesome
If we had a Bluntest Hall of Fame, this guy would definately be in it. (Can we get a Hall of Fame? I'm looking at you, Mr. Administrator.)

more dead things being made alive again
i didnt realize this was a trend or i wouldve posted this a while ago ...
i discovered this gem of grainy cinema many moons ago ... probably circa 1998, when i went to college and was given my first "high-speed" internet connection ... upon being granted "high-speed" access to the world wide web, i discovered (amongst many other things) the wonder that is archive.org, then still a budding online project ... the file formats were limited, and it crapped out most of the time (kinda like myspace but not nearly as stupid) ... during one of my many overnight jaunts on the internet (instead of studying) i came across ...
experiments in the revival of organisms
this video is notable for a couple of things ...
enjoy!

this video is notable for a couple of things ...
- its a joint soviet/united states production ... i would guess there's not a whole lof of these out there, the window of soviet/us friendliness only lasted a few years, and was also during a world war, so i cant imagine there were too many resources being poured into crazy experimental experiments with crazy soviet/us doctors running amok ...
- the narrators voice is so perfect its scary ... they couldnt have gotten a creepier/vaguely eastern european/mad doctor guy to have voiced that ... vincent price could learn somethin ...
- check the flash gordon-esque medical equipment ... oh and
- THEY FUCKING REANIMATE A SEVERED DOGS HEAD!!!!
enjoy!
them's some might fine smokables
bad news for all you pufffy mcsmokingtons. though in this age of medical science, i'm surprised we can't mainline nicotine, or take a pill, or some sort of backwards cough syrup.

An Addendum
Rule #1 of Blogging: You need weird pictures.
That being said, I present to you . . .
Dr. Demikhov's experiment!
And the Popeye to the Soviet's Bluto . . .
America's own Dr. Frankentstein!
This post has been pretty exciting with the exclamation points. And yes, I purposefully chose not to include a lame joke about the first rule of the Bluntest is you don't talk about the Bluntest.

and i oppose the five day waiting period on doomsday devices for mad scientists...
this article is too bizarre for me to believe as outright fact, but i'm optimistic when it comes to mad science. the short of it is that the russians (and an american) meddled in brain and/or head transplants.
the article eventually gets past the mad science part (which is also cool) and tackles some of those mind-body-identity issues that make the whole idea so compelling in the first place. though since it's a daily paper, and using "brian urlacher doling out career ending injuries to receivers going high over the middle" as my standard of serious philosophic tackling, this is more of a peewee league bump-into-eachother-and-fall-down.
the way i see it, all those gushy internal organs are abstractions for most of us. we don't see or touch them, though we have ideas about how they work and how they effect our health. so when i get my spleen or something transplanted, i don't crap myself thinking, my god, i'm not the same person anymore. but if you had your head transplanted onto another body, you'd likely think that you aren't entirely yourself. you probably think the same sorts of things, but it'd be complicated. as far as most of us are concerned, identity and personhood don't end when you die. if we thought so, why would we bother with funerals and whatnot?
anyway, two headed dogs. in the future, maybe two headed-dog brains, in jars.

Terrorism
So, after reading that article about Carter and the quarrels with the Jewish community about his book, I decided to make a post on an interesting tangent. (Note, this is a tangent, not saying Israel is a terrorist state or justifying violence in any form, this is merely informative. Or as informative as I get.)
This post is inspired by this man's book.
Back in the day, there was an Israeli rabbi with beard that just screamed of importance. He founded the Kach party. They were a scary ultra right wing political party that didn't like many people other than Jews. The Israeli government passed some laws that pretty much banned them from taking any legislative seats after the Kach party won a seat in 1984. It's now illegal to be a member of Kach in Israel.
They particularly didn't like Palestinians or people who shook hands with them. This guy shot him. The guy who got shot was the Prime Minister of Israel. Most other people didn't mind them shaking hands. The two men were actually given a medal for shaking hands. Other people who won the award had been shot in the past. Maybe it's bad luck to win an award named after the guy who invented dynamite.
By that time, the Kach party had been banned from the Israeli parliament and had pretty much blended in with an American group which was also founded by the bearded rabbi. They have a web page. Everyone has a web page it seems. Here's a picture of some members of the group. That picture was taken about a quarter mile from the high school I attended.
So when Jennifer Lopez was still Jenny from the block, the bearded rabbi was shot in the Bronx by a guy with a less impressive beard. Perhaps a case of beard envy.
The guy with wicked beard envy had a friend with red hair who drove a taxi. The guy with red hair told the government he was a farmer. He's not the only one to lie about being a farmer. (That guy was the artist's dentist posing with the artist's sister.) The guy with beard envy was supposed to get in the red head's taxi after the shooting. He got into the wrong cab and was arrested. Another guy with a beard helped him pay for an attorney who got him aquitted of murder.
Beard Envy and the Red Headed Taxi Driver got in later trouble for trying to blow up two buildings with a truck bomb. They got arrested for that because they tried to get their deposit back. There are a lot people who are broke and have beards, I guess.
Remember that guy who paid for the lawyer? Some of his friends later succeeded in blowing up those buildings. They used airplanes instead of trucks.
And by the way, the homeless bearded buy from before was hung because of the rich guy with the beard's, who paid for the attorney, friends flew into those buildings.
Long, but interesting. The date it was written makes it even more interesting. *** Note that it was written by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a bipartisan, right leaning think tank that formed from Georgetown University in 1964 and was pretty much an anti-communist group.

"The documents show that the FBI was aware in 1971 that Rehnquist had owned a home in Phoenix with a deed that allowed him to sell only to whites. The restrictive covenant was not disclosed until his 1986 confirmation hearings, at which Rehnquist said he became aware of the clause only days earlier."
