Invasion


They are already inside our country. And it is a dangerous enemy, almost invisible to us. They can be inside our neighbor, at church, basically everywhere you go…

Also they know no mercy, they spare no one… Little by little, they make many victims. They kill pregnant women, children, and old men!

It is a war that we are losing every day, every minute!!! And the government? Well they don’t do anything! They just sit back and relax. Our country isn’t safe and they don’t want to spend one dollar!!!

The name of the enemy: virus; bacteria, etc; Their group: Health Problems!!!

P.S. I want to thank the kind words of Rednex_X and all the others. Because of this I decided once again to start writing … Hope that this time I won’t stop it… And also I hope you find the patience to read me...

This blog is in Coma!

Hi everybody, for the third time I tried and for the third time I failed. It was a great experience while this blog was active but I have to admit that it has been to long since I posted regulary. While I am still not prepared to declared this blog dead, I have to say that for the time being it is in a "Coma State".

This means that the experience it is not over yet but will wait for a better chance and time to be out of this "Coma State".

I would like to thank everyone who helped here and hope that we keep in touch.

Underlying Truth

Only now I've seen the documentary of Al Gore. It was a disapointment. I had already some anti-bodies against him. At least since he won the Nobel, but I expected to be a great film.

But nevertheless there was a underlying truth that was not explored: we won't have any solution for the climate crisis. The time and efforts necessary to reverse that tendency is impossible to achieve.

But that does not mean that the World will end, rather it will solve the problem in a rather old-fashioned manner - through Darwin's Law!

Olympism



"1. Olympism is a philosophy of life, exalting and combining in a balanced whole the qualities of body, will and mind. Blending sport with culture and education, Olympism seeks to create a way of life based on the joy found in effort, the educational value of good example and respect for universal fundamental ethical principles.


2. The goal of Olympism is to place sport at the service of the harmonious development of man, with a view to promoting a peaceful society concerned with the preservation of human dignity.


3. The Olympic Movement is the concerted, organised, universal and permanent action, carried out under the supreme authority of the IOC, of all individuals and entities who are inspired by the values of Olympism. It covers the five continents. It reaches its peak with the bringing together of the world’s athletes at the great sports festival, the Olympic Games. Its symbol is five interlaced rings.


4. The practice of sport is a human right. Every individual must have the possibility of practising sport, without discrimination of any kind and in the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity and fair play. The organisation, administration and management of sport must be controlled by independent sports organisations.


5. Any form of discrimination with regard to a country or a person on grounds of race, religion, politics, gender or otherwise is incompatible with belonging to the Olympic Movement.


6. Belonging to the Olympic Movement requires compliance with the Olympic Charter and recognition by the IOC."

Finland: Thought crime or not?

"Yesterday a Finnish blogger, Mikko Ellilä, was convicted of what could be called, despite all the political and legal jargon, a thoughtcrime. What he did was tell several hardly disputable facts: that, on average, white people have a higher IQ than Africans (this difference may be due to nutrition, education and/or genetics but that's beside the point), that crime rates are exceptionally high for Africans (or their offshoots such as African-Americans) and that immigrants consume more of society's resources than what they contribute, i.e., that immigration is a net loss, at least in a welfare state such as ours." (Sandt's Observations )
I don't think that all this thoughts are without dispute. For instance:
- "on average, white people have a higher IQ than Africans" how did they conclude that? Did the studies picked persons from the same level of degree and social background? What I am saying is that you can only conclude that if you pick two persons who are equal and the only diference is the race (one thing that is almost impossible)
- "that crime rates are exceptionally high for Africans" again you have to exclude all things besides race to reach this conclusion. Mixing factors will not allow you to reach a valid conclusion.
- "immigrants consume more of society's resources than what they contribute" my doubt goes if the study did valued the benefit that all Finish have for having lower wages workers? And the jobs they have, don't they create value to Finland?
For me the hard part to believe is that a lawyer could not say that what this blogger said wasn't true, because the hard part is to prove that that claims are true and not the opposite. It is nearly impossible to single out race as a factor for having less IQ or being more prone to violence. There is no cientific proof for this claim. Is this a thought crime? I don't think so.
But this imposes a big and diferent question: Where is the limit for freedom of speech?
