Mein Kampf headed for German newsstands
Post Date: 2012-01-22 04:21:10 by Tatarewicz
0 Comments
British publisher Peter McGee says he plans to publish excerpts from Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf and sell them in Germany. “It is about time that the broader public is given the opportunity to deal with the original text,” he told Der Spiegel newsweekly. McGee says he will publish critical commentaries alongside the excerpts from Mein Kampf, which will go on sale in Germany the week after next. He plans to print three 15-page editions, with a print run of 100,000 each. The British publisher caused controversy back in 2009 when he published Zeitungszeugen (“Newspaper Witness”), which included annotated facsimiles of Nazi newspapers like Der Angriff and the ...

Man tells court it was dog who strangled wife

A German man suspected of strangling his wife has pointed the finger at the family dog instead, saying the Labrador could have smothered her to death by accident. The 50-year-old man was convicted of manslaughter after his wife was found strangled to death in their bathroom in Düsseldorf November 2010, the Süddeutsche Zeitung reported on Monday. But his conviction was overruled by a federal court which said that the fact the woman was strangled for several minutes did not necessarily on its own mean she was killed intentionally, and now the case is being heard again – complete with a witness who is an expert on dogs. The man’s lawyer said he and his wife had been ...

Payroll of Alberta's bureaucrats doubles in a decade

CALGARY — Alberta’s public sector wage bill has increased nearly twice as fast as the national average over the last decade, according to a new University of Calgary study. Authors Ken Boessenkool and Ben Eisen found that provincial civil servants, health workers, university staff and school board employees have pocketed almost all of the Alberta government’s rise in revenues over the last 10 years as their wage increases outpaced their counterparts elsewhere in the country. “Huge gaps in per employee costs have opened over the last decade,” said Eisen, “and it’s contributing to the province’s deteriorating financial position.” The study ...

Why Gay Parents May Be the Best Parents
Post Date: 2012-01-17 08:41:20 by Tatarewicz

Gay marriage, and especially gay parenting, has been in the cross hairs in recent days. On Jan. 6, Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum told a New Hampshire audience that children are better off with a father in prison than being raised in a home with lesbian parents and no father at all. And last Monday (Jan. 9), Pope Benedict called gay marriage a threat "to the future of humanity itself," citing the need for children to have heterosexual homes. But research on families headed by gays and lesbians doesn't back up these dire assertions. In fact, in some ways, gay parents may bring talents to the table that straight parents don't. Gay parents "tend to be ...

Buddy of mine sent me this, said he was talking to his dad about income tax and his dad sent him this taking the contrarian view. I haven't had time to look at it, but I immediately got hung up at the beginning when it said something that to me rendered the entire analysis flawed. I thought I'd throw this piece of red meat out there and then come back and see what it looks like in a bit a little later and before reading the entire piece. ****************** Income Tax Myths"There's just no law requiring you to pay federal income taxes."The most basic myth of tax protestors is that there is simply no law mandating the payment of income taxes.

Former Marine Itzcoatl Ocampo, 23, of Yorba Linda appeared deeply troubled when he returned home and for a year had been telling relatives that he was seeing and hearing things, an uncle says. A 23-year-old former Marine who some say was distraught after combat service in Iraq has been named a suspect in the serial killings of four homeless men in Orange County. Itzcoatl Ocampo of Yorba Linda was chased by bystanders Friday after the most recent stabbing death behind a fast-food restaurant in an Anaheim shopping center parking lot. Ocampo remained in police custody without bail Saturday and is expected in court on Tuesday. "We are extremely confident that we have the man who is ...

This is being passed around among Facebook users like a pipe at a college party: This reminds me of how much I hate the word ‘deserve’.  In fact, it is the word to which my life philosophy (one I share with very many people) is most strongly opposed.  I’m more of a “you get what you put in” kind of guy.  In the realm of sexual relationships, that would be called Spengler’s Universal Law of Gender Parity.  If we all ‘deserve’ the ideal then if the supply of the ideal is not plentiful enough to meet the demand, some demanders of the ideal e.g. women, will be left with a less-than-optimal outcome. And if they are told that they ...

German Farmers Seek their Fortunes in Russia Part II

Part 2: Solving Problems Outside the Legal System Nevertheless, there is still the question of what drives a German farmer to faraway Russia. The answer is simple, and has to do with the numbers. The larger a farm is today, the more effectively it can be cultivated. Thanks to GPS and satellites, farming has become largely automated. In addition, diesel fuel is significantly cheaper in Russia than in Germany, and there is also no milk quota. The price per liter of milk is currently about 30 euro cents in Germany, while in Russia prices can be as high as 42 cents. There are also government subsidies to cover interest costs, minimum prices and import duties to stave off foreign competition. ...

German Farmers Seek their Fortunes in Russia

In the 18th century, Catherine the Great invited German farmers to come to Russia and cultivate the land. Over two centuries later, the country is recruiting Teutonic pioneers once again in a bid to put vast tracts of fallow land to use. The land holds great opportunities for agricultural entrepreneurs -- provided they have strong nerves. Info The roads are a problem. The dark, frost-damaged asphalt is patched in many places. As the black Toyota Camry bumps along the road, Alexander, the driver, glances quickly into the rear-view mirror and steps on the gas, passing trucks that look like they haven't seen the inside of a repair shop in a long time. Sitting in the back seat, Stefan ...

Penis Tattoo Causes Permanent Erection For Iranian Man At least he can get it up. A man who got a tattoo on his penis is now left with a permanent semi-erection, according to an article in the latest issue of the Journal of Sexual Medicine. As MSNBC's The Body Odd reports, the 21-year-old Iranian man found himself between a rock and a hard place after he got a tattoo in Persian script reading "borow be salaamat" (good luck on your journeys), and the first initial of his girlfriend's last name ("M"). So what went wrong during the penis-pummeling procedure? The article in Sexual Medicine explains that a tattoo artist crafted the tattoo using a handheld needle ...

An Australian tourist who went bungee jumping in Africa suffered extensive bruising and a broken collarbone but is fortunate to be alive after the cord snapped during her 365-foot New Year's Eve plunge from a bridge above the Zambesi River. ABC News shared Erin Langworthy's harrowing tale Sunday, supported by video footage sure to make prospective bungee jumpers think twice about participating in this thrilling but dangerous sport. Bungee Cord Breaks Above the Zambezi River "It's definitely a miracle that I survived," she said. There appears to have been some tension in the cord before it broke; perhaps enough to slow the plunge and prevent more serious ...

Lawyer for Levi Aron launches 'inbreeding defense'

The lawyer for Levi Aron, the man accused of killing and dismembering 8-year-old Leiby Kletzky, hinged his insanity defense partially on in-breeding. Aron is accused of bringing Kletzky, who was lost on his way home from school, to his home and killing him, then cutting up his body. Attorney Howard Greenberg told reporters outside a Brooklyn Supreme Court court hearing yesterday that Aron's actions might have be a result of genetic defects caused by inbreeding in Brooklyn's Hasidic community. “Look, everybody knows when blood relations have offspring, there can be genetic defects,” Greenberg told reporters. Greenberg confirmed that he will still mount an insanity ...

Four out of ten police officers in North America suffer from some sort of sleep disorder. (The Epoch Times) Because of the combination of obesity and having an erratic schedule, many police officers suffer from sleep problems. This increases the odds of their having diabetes, depression, and occupational injuries. A new study has found that four out of ten North American police officers surveyed have some sort of sleep disorder. The researchers say the result can be impaired job performance, as well as a variety of health problems. Charles Czeisler, a leading sleep researcher at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, screened police officers in the United ...

Mrs. Liu fled from China to escape a forced abortion. She gave birth to her baby in Los Angeles on Dec. 2, 2011. (Jenny Liu/The Epoch Times) LOS ANGELES--Three Chinese parents share their ordeals of fleeing from China to escape forced abortion and other reprisals because of an “illegal, out-of-plan” second pregnancy. China has in place a 30-year one-child family regulation. All “out-of-plan” pregnancies--a second pregnancy, a pregnancy by a single woman, or by an under-aged couple, for example--are aborted, by force, if a woman does not voluntarily submit to it, unless she can pay a hefty fee. According to Zhai Zhenwu, director of Renmin University’s School of ...
