If You Really Think It Matters Which Party Controls the Senate, Answer These Questions
EIGHT QUESTIONS ONLY:
1. Will U.S. foreign policy in the Mideast change from being an incoherent pastiche of endless war and Imperial meddling?

The Science Of Entanglement & The Illusion Of Separation – SAND 2014
With great gratitude I found myself with like-minded scientists and thought leaders at this year’s Science and Nonduality Conference (SAND) where a common ground was sought between neuroscientists, physicists and the consciousness community. This year’s theme was “Entanglement” and recognition that “when science drills down into the core of even the most solid-looking object, separateness dissolves, and all that remains are relationships extending throughout and possibly beyond, space and time.”
Research: 3D printing, the Arts and Crafts Movement and the Democratization of Art
* Master’s Thesis: “The Art and Craft of the Machine”: 3D printing, the Arts and Crafts Movement and the democratization of art. Patokorpi, Lassi. 2014. University of Tampere.
I discuss the machine’s two-sided role as, on the one hand, the destroyer of art, and on the other hand, the saviour of art.
I have been waiting for this, the pushback from the conservatives within the Roman Church, whose views and power is threatened by this new pope. I just hope something doesn't “happen” to Francis.

Saudi Arabia is without question the weirdest country I have ever visited. It gave me the creeps from the moment I set foot on the ground, and was handed a copy of the Protocols of Zion a virulently anti-semitic 19th century propaganda screed. Going to an opulent mall that would have been at home in Beverly Hills and seeing groups of women looking like floating black bags — indeed that was how my guide referred to them, “black bags” — was unnerving, and they appeared in my dreams for months afterwards. Enormous wealth grossly inequitably distributed wedded to fanatical absolutist Medieval theology has produced something unlike any other country on Earth. Recently I have been seeing more and more articles about the growing instability in the country, which does not surprise me, but which could spell massive upheaval in the region. The closest analogy I can think of is the fall of the Shah in Iran. Based on what I am reading it would not surprise me if the House of Saud fell in 2015-2016. Here is an example of what I have been reading.
Al Saud’s Repressive Monarchy Creates Traction For Saudi Revolution
Though Saudi Arabia hasn’t yet fallen victim to the Arab Spring, it may only be a matter of time, especially as the parallels between Iran under the Shah and present-day Saudi Arabia become alarmingly more apparent.
