Cal Thomas _Jewish World Review_
to RINOs and leftists, president Trump is the enemy; stupid, suicidal, & predictable
"...Here's a positive suggestion.   Let the new White House chief of staff, general John Kelly, meet with senate majority-leader Mitch McConnell and speaker Paul Ryan.   Give them a list of programs and policies the president would like to pass (or repeal) and ask the 2 [RINO losers] to poll their members to see what they could vote for.   Then let general Kelly receive from the leaders what congressional Republicans could support and vote for.   Somewhere in between is enough common ground to repeal legislation and programs that aren't working and create new ones that will work, based on experience, [and ethical principles]..."
Better yet, avoid sabotage by the RINO and the Red/Dem/Left losership by polling the House and senate members directly...akin to Reagan appealing repeatedly over the heads of the losership to the public, and Trump using Twit to punch through the leftist media interference.

high-fructose corn syrup falsely maligned victim of mouse terrorism
"...The liver converts roughly 50%s of consumed fructose to glucose, which is the main energy substrate for the brain as well as other tissues, which is why you can get so cranky when your daily diet does not include enough carbohydrates to keep your brain happy.   Another 30% of fructose is converted to lactate, a chemical cousin of glucose, which the liver, as well as other cells, can also use as an energy source.   Overall, less than 1% of the ingested fructose in humans is converted to fat -- the balance metabolically ends up as glycogen (stored sugar), glycerol and CO2...   [unless you are deficient in required enzymes, have been exposed to chemicals which block normal metabolic chemical path-ways, etc.]"

I took a DNA test and got an unexpected hodgepodge: I prefer to believe family legend
"...So, you already know what I know from direct, firsthand knowledge from my ancestors, their entry documents into the USA, which I found, on my father's side, at Ellis Island, and their recollections of all their ancestors.   But to review, I am sure of the following:   50% Arab.   50% mix of French-Canadian, native American and a shot of Scotch.   (And do I love Scotch!)   Are you ready for the DNA 'ethnic estimate'?   Here's the report:   38% Italian/Greek.   10% Irish.   9% English.   7% Iberian Peninsula.   6% European Jewish.   19% Middle East.   7% Caucasus..."
All of which, if you look at "long history", is perfectly consistent.   A lot of the Lebanese (and more than a few Syrians & Palestinians) are descendants of Phoenicians, which is to say Greeks.   Irish have a tradition of having come from Scythia via Spain/the Iberian peninsula.   Scot is the name for a large group of people who moved from Ireland to Scotland.   Picts and Gaels and Celts are genetically statistically so mixed together the geneticists cannot separate them.   Celts, if you believe National Geographic, once stretched from just NE of Greece to the Orkneys.   Of course, the more markers examined on the Y-DNA, mtDNA, and autosomal, the more detailed analysis is possible.   In addition, you have to consider the quality of the lab.   How careful are the people in that particular lab about cross-contamination of samples from different people and with the lab technicians' own DNA, and do they properly exclude bacteria?

USA citizens are not as mobile as we used to be
After several decades of compensation lagging costs of living, many do not have the resources to move.   And Tax and regulatory changes since the late 1970s have reduced employers' willingness to provide relocation assistance (both new employees and retained employees), new-hire training, fly job candidates in for interviews, etc.   The executives have been shifting more costs onto current and prospective employees.

ageism is causing more USA citizen STEM professionals to seek work outside Sili Valley, but other tech hubs are little better (and Gannett has been a facilitator for over 25 years)
"...The median age of [USA citizens + green card holders] is 42.   Yet at FB it's 29, Google 30, Apple 31, Amazon 30, and MSFT 33...   Most [reported] job candidates at those companies are 25 to 34 years old, according to data collected by Glassdoor...   EEOC investigating google for age discrimination, law-suit says.   90 age-discrimination complaints reflect growing issue for tech...   'Diversity of experience and thought is critical for any organization, industry, or society to thrive.', says Todd Thibodeaux, CEO of CompTIA [which has heavily lobbied for lower standards and more cheap, young, pliant, low-skilled guest-workers with flexible ethics from just 3 southern provinces of and a single caste in India]...   Sili Valley's not-so-secret ageism...   It used to be [perhaps 30-40 years ago] workers in their 40s were treated as over-the-hill; today, it's employees in their mid-30s...   '...ageism is pretty apparent -- and it is hard wired.', says Covey...   Recruiting agencies, for example, are [abusing] automation to screen out applicants over 40 without questioning their age, according to Covey.   Two days after he applied for a job as senior content editor at a major tech company, Covey says he received a robo-call from a recruiting agency that did not identify the company nor who it was representing.   After answering a question about what year he graduated from high school (1970), he says the phone line went dead.   When Covey called the tech company, he says, the company blamed the recruiting agency...   'When I tried to knock on tech's door for a job, even though I was qualified as f*, it refused to answer because I was too old.', Dyson, now 50, says.   'I couldn't knock on the door.   The door was closed.'..."

The writer on this last uses the term "unicorn" to refer to what many now call a "purple squirrel".   One poster also mentioned that executives are adamantly opposed to new-hire (and retained) employee training.   Nor do they any longer provide relocation assistance, nor travel expenses for interviews.   Overall, the evidence still points to humongous talent gluts in STEM and several other fields.

the tree of hope
"...This Sabbath is called the Sabbath of Consolation.   After the three week period of mourning that intensified in its last nine days, we finally feel the grief lifting.   It's made me wonder about consolation generally and what constitutes consolation for people.   What comforts people after suffering or disappointment?   For some it's friends.   For some it's food.   For some it's travel.   For some it's charity.   Some people find comfort in religion; others in art.   For Victor Hugo, it was reading, 'It is from books that wise people derive consolation in the troubles of life.'   For Jews, it's trees.   Trees have always been a sign of regeneration, of growth after decimation.   Plant a tree, and the world feels better because the possibility of growth represents hope..."

  "A company that invests in a major manufacturing facility in selected parts of [Red China] pays no taxes for 20 years; land is provided free; the company is exempted from all import duties and value-added taxes and can expect grants to help train the work-force.   On top of that, grants of up to half the amount of the capital investment are also available." --- Clyde V.

  "At $295G, the US R&D budget [private sector? government? both?] is about double that of Japan and about a third more than that of the EU as a whole.   In terms of purchasing power parity (ppp), it is just about equal to [Red China's] $60G.   ([Red China's] prices are much lower, so that $60G there buys as much as $300G in the United States.)...   of the USA spending, industry R&D in 2004 account for about 66% and government the rest.   These ratios are the reverse of the 1960s...   The physical sciences have actually been cut by 37% since 1970.   Today, total US government spending on physical science is less than the $5G Intel spends annually." --- Clyde V. Prestowitz 2005 _3G New Capitalists_ pp133-134

  "The reason is that the 'research to manufacturing process is not sequential in a single direction, but results from an R&D-manufacturing ecosystem consisting of basic R&D, pre-competitive development, prototyping, product development and manufacturing' all operating in such a way that 'new ideas can be tested and discussed with those working on the ground'... 'locations that possess both strong R&D and manufacturing capabilities have a competitive edge'." --- Clyde V. Prestowitz 2005 _3G New Capitalists_ pp131-132
