China is going to build a $242 billion (1.5 trillion yuan) high-speed rail link between Beijing and Moscow. The line will cut the journey time from five to 'two days', say Chinese authorities.

This is amazing news… and it should have been something America did first..


I long thought that one of the best initiatives President Obama could have done immediately in 2009 was to plan for a comprehensive high speed railway across the nation—a new Interstate system al-la- Eisenhower.. 


It could have changed America. Revolutionized travel.. Ate away early at OPEC margins.. and transformed this into a new American century of jobs and prosperity, and quick travel between small towns and big cities..


Instead we didn’t.
And now soon, you’ll be able to travel from from Beijing to Moscow in 2 days.

We have our chance…

Of Doomsdays and Clocks

The world is going to now witness a stream of media attention about the Doomsday Clock


  • it wasn’t changed snice 2012

  • until today it was five minutes until midnight

  • it has been pushed to three minutes until midnight with today’s announcement

Perhaps if the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists REALLY wants to get some attention, they’d use the clock from DON’T HUG ME I’M SCARED.. 




And anyway, Justin Timberlake sang we only had four minutes to save the world.. I guess he was wrong..

It is 3 minutes to midnight: Live Stream (while it continues) of the Doomsday Clock announcement

Great news for 2015 (sarcasm of course) The Doomsday Clock has just been moved.. three minutes until midnight. We're close to the end, apparently..

A great question posed: Do atheist movie goers get scared during supernatural horror movies?

The answer provided by Robert Frost (not the poet):



“So, atheists can certainly get a thrill from supernatural movies, but they do miss out on the scariness being prolonged after the theater lights come back on. That’s a thrill reserved to those that can believe in the possibility of ghosts and demons.”

Some coal region rumblings, news of the local fare. CARDIBAL BRENNAN, My former high school, closed for years, has been purchased by another school… The North Schuylkill school district has approved the plan to purchase the shuddered campus in Fountain Springs on Academy Lane.



Mixed emotions, but I don’t see the problem whatsoever in a school buying the school.
Let the supposedly learning continue.

George Lucas sounds off: Disney didn’t use any of his ideas in new STAR WARS movie.. 


But while some fans may seen this as a shot at Lucas, let’s get real.. the ‘newest’ STAR WARS movies were basically a triplet of trash, some of the worst films I have ever seen.


Especially the PHANTOM MENACE.. should we really ponder why Disney didn’t use the ideas?


Sure, a young George Lucas gave us Darth Vader.


But the modern Lucas gave us Jar Jar Binks..


I think a new direction was quite appropriate when considering that..

Sitting kills.

Make sure when you read this, you’re standing..


A new study suggests something we have long suspected: Sitting can kill. 


And it’s deadly EVEN IF YOU EXERCISE..


Maybe it’s time to redesign classrooms and offices.


Donald Rumsfeld may have given us killer chemicals but he sure knows how to live long: Stand while working. It may be time for lots of other people to consider changing their lifestyles to live longer to have one..

DO NOT vape em if you got em

 New lab tests imply that e-cigs are more dangerous than their dangerous counterpart.. 


From the information being provided on the study, they are FILLED with cancer causing chemicals. 


Like a lot.. like more than real cigarettes..

What do avoid during sex: The woman on top.. Scientists now say that it is the most dangerous sexual position known to humans, leading to the majority of penile fractures in men..

A lot of people used to say, 'if you can watch TV a TV can watch you.' That was long before TV's could watch, listen, record, and admittedly analyze you..

SAMSUNG has been in the hot seat over just how invasive their smart TVs are.. Now people are wondering just what the creepy friend in our living room is doing with our images and private conversations..

The planet is amazing.. the planet is scary. This is the scene in the Pacific in Tonga… a volcano has been erupting for about a month.. And suddenly a new island has appeared. Tonga now has 177 islands. Update your maps accordingly..

The Yemen factor..

Dateline Yemen: Yemen’s president Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi has expressed readiness to accept demands for constitutional change and powersharing with Houthi rebels who took up positions outside his home after defeating his guards in two days of battle. 


This could start getting very dicey very quickly..


Even more, it was announced today that Boehner bringing BIBI to the House to address Congress.


Obama said he didn’t know.. a surprise for The Commander in Chief after a raucous State of the Union..
