Welcome to King's Lynn............
Council employs bouncer to protect library staff
Editors Note: A pretty fair description.
REBEL SOULS, AFTERMATH
William Clarke Quantrill, Confederate guerrilla leader 
Quantrill died at the hands of Union forces in Kentucky in May 1865, but his men continued on as outlaws, emerging in time as the James-Younger Gang.

Video: 'Meltup'..............from Rico
You need 54 minutes to watch the entire video. I think it is worth watching (but then I think Rogers, Faber and Celenta are worth listening to, and do not think any of the financial media, MSM, or our politicians are worth listening to..there you have it).
Most, if not all, of the content 'tracks' with information I have seen elsewhere/found in other sources...none of them involved ABC-CBS-NBC or CNN et al.
Some of this is very bad news, but what you don't like and/or don't know will hurt you anyway.
Movie Review: 'Up in the Air'
Should I see it?
If you enjoy long, overly-patient character studies that don't reveal much about the human condition, then sure.

"The tenor of my lifetime -- of this era -- is that religion and community have been replaced by McDonalds and Wal-Mart and political sloganeering. I was thinking today about my hometown. Even in my lifetime, the town had a distinct flavor brought on by "Scandihoovians", fishermen, loggers, and Anglo-Saxon architecture. Capitalism has its own whoring collectivism: the desire to transform citizens into consumers. Who can deny that sickness?" The Unburied Dead

Is 44 Feckless And Reckless?
Is 44's underwhelming ME stance in diplopolititary events dangerously pushing the region to a series of small battles or even a regionwide war?
"Washington’s refusal to develop a strategic relationship with Iraq to hold back Iran, means the US will have to rely, instead, on the frail Gulf states to push back against the Islamic Republic. Not surprisingly, Iran sees very few serious obstacles coming from its Gulf Arab neighbors. And these would dissipate completely if Tehran were to acquire nuclear weapons. Iran has the added ability in places such as Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Kuwait, but also in Yemen, of being able to mobilize members of disgruntled Shiite minorities.
"Iran’s priority is to progressively undermine America in the Middle East, with other regional tensions, in themselves of less immediate importance to Tehran, feeding into this. Hizbullah and Hamas act as useful shock absorbers for Iran while it develops a nuclear capability, the cornerstone of its bid for regional hegemony.
"Which brings us to the shipwreck that is Afghanistan.Until now the signs are not good. Washington finds itself fighting the Taliban while striving to find common ground between the conflicting objectives of its two major (and mistrusted) allies in the Afghan war, President Hamid Karzai and Pakistan. Add to that that Pakistan has no real desire to see the US succeed, preferring to reassert its own authority in Kabul.
"This is excellent news for Iran. An Obama administration trapped in the tentacles of Afghanistan makes more likely American retreats in the Middle East. And if Barack Obama decides next year that it is time to wind down his Afghan adventure, the implications for America’s view of itself, and the world’s view of America, could be dramatic, particularly if Iran uses that opening to finalize a nuclear weapon. Obama will have presided over two major military withdrawals while allowing Iran to become a major adversary in the Middle East.
"But there is another possible scenario. Obama may realize that he’s been cornered by Tehran, and resort to the one thing he can still call upon with some sense of superiority, military power.
"Whatever happens, Obama’s bad choices today are pushing him in the direction he most dreads.
Pic "Why does an ostensible “ally” seem to constitute more of a threat than, say, Iran? Or Lebanon or Syria or Iraq? Or Egypt, birthplace of the Muslim Brotherhood brand of militant Islam? Or the West Bank and Gaza, where resentment of America’s Middle East policies is centered?" from GrEaT sAtAn"S gIrLfRiEnD

SIZE matters-LUBRICATION-CONFIDENCE............from Rico
SIZE MATTERS
Observing the algorithm-driven markets of late, the only volume I have seen is NOT in the equities markets (where responsible Moms & Pops a.k.a. "retail" investors throw their life savings upon the irresponsible Keynesian 'bonfires of the inanities' peddled by both Gooberment & Wallstreet) but in theincreasing use of Food Stamps.
LUBRICATION
Sure. If Greece was/is a "subprime" borrower, then what exactly is California?
- Bend over and assume the position, cupcake!
CONFIDENCE
Confidence in government is running about 12 percent...about the percentage of the population with an IQ of 85 or less.
Smoke 'em if you got 'em!!!!!!!!!

Political Libido
R. Emmett "Mickey" Tyrrell Wrote a Book: After the Hangover, The Conservatives Road to Recovery
Doesn't like the Buckley kid.
"In After the Hangover, R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr. serves up an insightful and delightful exploration of the past, present, and future of American conservatism – or what he terms “America’s longest dying political philosophy.” And he sees a bright future."
