Israel has never been so openly politicized in the United States as it is right now. Yesterday afternoon Senate Democrats voted to block the progress of a bill that would punish those who support Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Israel. It was the second time in three days that the Democrats joined together on that procedural vote, saying that the shutdown should come first.
Democrats are expressing the fear that the party will split over Israel, just as Republicans want. The Senate leadership has indicated that it will push the bill again soon in an effort to show which party cares about Israel and which party is harboring “anti-semitic” and “racist” forces, in the words of Colorado Senator Cory Gardner. Continue reading “‘Israel has never been so divisive in modern political history’ — anti-BDS bill fails again in Senate”

On Friday, her father and a stunned community mourned the 22-year-old who was shot and killed on duty while responding to a multi-vehicle crash in the small college town of Davis, California. Investigators believe she was ambushed by a gunman on a bicycle, but they haven’t a determined the motive for his actions.

Think you’ve never drunk synthetic caffeine? It sounds dodgy, wrong, futuristic, but you’ve likely consumed synthetic caffeine this week or even today.
A century ago, caffeine added to soft drinks, energy drinks and caffeine tablets used to be derived from extracting the caffeine from tea leaves or coffee beans. But the desire for caffeine has increased exponentially since then and scientists from Monsanto looked for cheaper ways to produce much greater industrial quantities of pure caffeine. Continue reading “Ever wondered where the caffeine comes from in soda or energy drinks? Answer: synthetic caffeine”

A newsfeed came across our inboxes that promoted a notion that China was somehow misbehaving regarding the use of CRISPR to create edited humans. The dialectic was a non-sequitur because earlier press releases on the efficiency of CRISPR read like a high school newspaper writing about the success of its stageplay being a success because it was over, yet was a total train wreck of a production. CRISPR can indeed edit a genome for the target mutations, however there can be a hundred downstream changes that were neither intended or predicted or controllable. That used to be called: The Operation Was A Success But The Patient Died. Continue reading “When Worlds Collide”

If you are considering a mobile life, try Boondocking on BLM land. When you do, your budget opens up and the beauty of the natural world reveals itself in miraculous ways, each new adventure unfurling just around the next bend in the road.
Because boondocking is free, you can live without the worry of a mortgage or rent payment. It opens up your budget and allows you to choose how you want to live. Perhaps that is to work less, or be creative, or just sit and watch the birds fly by. It’s up to you. But Boondocking is not your mother’s RV camping. To me, it’s a lot more fun, but its also a little different than traditional RVing. Continue reading “How to Camp on BLM Land: Why, How and Where”
