The 4th of July

The 4th of July

Have you ever wondered what happened to the 56 men

who signed the Declaration of Independence?

Five signers were captured by the British as traitors,

and tortured before they died.

Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned.

Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army;

another had two sons captured.

Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or

hardships of the… Continue

Governments: A Case Of Mistaken Identity

We are in a very crucial period of human development in the United States. Political activism could very likely insure our demise. The main problem is a case of mistaken identity. It's being made by the U.S. citizen. Not all, by any means, but by the most vocal: the political activist. The mistake is that people have confused the government with the nation. When we say the nation is at war, we should be thinking - the government is at war. The government is always at war. That's where it…

New World Order for Sovereign Debt

The financial crisis is forcing investors to look at the world through new eyes. A case in point: emerging-market government bonds. When emerging-market bond spreads tightened to record lows in 2006 and early 2007, it was seen as evidence that risk appetite had run too far. Having blown out following Lehman Brothers' collapse, spreads are narrowing again -- only this time, the balance of risks is no longer so stark.

The history of emerging-market sovereign debt has been littered with… Continue

Oregon legalizes hemp cultivation

Oregon’s House of Representatives voted Monday night to legalize the cultivation of hemp, becoming the sixth state to do so just this year.

Oregon’s Senate voted 27 to 2 in favor of the new law last week. Monday’s 46 to 11 House vote means that the measure will become law, barring an unlikely veto by Governor Ted Kulongoski.

The move is part of a rapidly growing nationwide trend to liberalize laws relating to marijuana. Hemp is a botanical cousin of marijuana,… Continue

"Dry Rot"

Assume that I live in a town of mostly timber-frame houses. There is from time to time a virulent infestation of dry rot, that can even destroy a house. A local firm of 'Timber Preservation Specialists' let's call it 'BaxtimberTreatment' offers to inject fungisides into all my timbers, so as to make my house 'immune' from 'Dry Rot' and other timber infestations. It works a treat, but this firm should have told me about the health effects of their toxic timber treatment. I was sick for weeks… Continue
