“Obama has long wanted go down in history as the second FDR; he may have his wish!”

Have you seen the new Times cover? Saw it yesterday: the “new” Obama embracing Ronald Reagan who surely is spinning in his grave!) with the caption “Why Obama loves Ronald Reagan so much.”

And I just saw a clip today of Andrea Mitchell who commented on some show over the weekend that the Republicans are wrongly co-opting Ronald Reagan. He’s doesn’t belong to them.
(Maybe she’s hoping to replace Keith Olbermann on MSNBC….?)

If only the American people had as well.

I fear it will be much worse than that.

I am watching now a live translation from Tahrir square via Euronews channel, where army tries to separate pro- and anti-government protesters by tanks and cargo trucks. A new Mubarak’s supporters arrive from provinces, armed by sticks, hoes and knifes. They seem to outnumber now anti-government protesters.

Otherwise, Obama has long wanted go down in history as the second FDR; he may have his wish! Too bad for the rest of us though.

Best wishes for strcpy.

For reasons unbeknownst to me, I’m still having trouble commenting here. Anyway I hope this one gets through.

Something I’ve been meaning to blog about and haven’t yet is a cancer resource book that I discovered last fall after a good friend in Wyoming lost her grown son to cancer in just two weeks. Anyway, I got this recently published and exquisitely researched book and read it voraciously when I returned to Tennessee.

It’s called ‘Outsmart Your Cancer’ by Tanya Harter Pierce. It is one of the most amazing, if not THE most amazing books I’ve ever read. All I can say is if you have cancer, have ever had cancer, have metastisized cancer and are losing hope after traditional treatments with mediocre results or have a loved one who does, run don’t walk to order/ buy this book. Today.

It is treasure without measure. The research Tanya has done is staggering and it—the history of the cancer industry here—will shock the pants off you.

This is not a book on snake oil cures or thinking nice thoughts. Instead, it is an unparalleled resource for cancer help.

She devoted four chapters on Protocel that are alone worth the price of admission.

Hate to be so enthusiastic, but when and if you read even the first 6-7 chapters, you will be too. And speechless. I hope your reader or his friends and family can get this resource to him and put it to use.

He won almost without a shot, making everybody to chose between continuation of his rule and chaos of civil war. And all western politicians are now neck deep in shit, their irrelevance at open display for everybody to see.

Nothing of this was predicted by meteorologists, so the predictive power of their models is now seriously undermined. This is no news for me, though, I knew this long ago from general theorems about chaotic systems behavior, but for general public the chaotic behavior of real world complex systems looks weird and scary. People were brainwashed worldwide to believe in omnipotence of science, so they feel anxious that the future can not be predicted even its most general features.
