His belief is that the American is really made up of 11 regions which is separated out in his “map” which will be shown below. He says that this is evidenced by voting patterns, demographics and public opinion polls going back to the days of the first settlers. “Yankeedom” in the Northeast and industrial Midwest was founded by Puritans and residents there have always been comfortable with a government that regulates and moderates.

Synthetic Alcohol: The Pleasure Without The Hangover

Fernando Kaskais

A drug that mimics some effects of alcohol but lacks its harmful properties would have real benefit for public health, a leading scientist has argued. Professor David Nutt, the Edmond J. Safra Professor of Neuropsychopharmacology at Imperial College London, has identified candidate molecules that reproduce the pleasurable effects of alcohol but are much less toxic. He is looking for investors to help develop the product and bring it to the market. Alcohol mimics a chemical called GABA which is produced in the brain, but it also acts on receptors for other brain chemicals. The alcohol substitute would be designed to … Continue reading Synthetic Alcohol: The Pleasure Without The Hangover

Ever Purchase a Book on Lying? You Might Be on a Govt Watch List

Fernando Kaskais

If you’ve ever trained to be a better liar—or more specifically inquired about how to lie well enough to beat a polygraph test—numerous federal agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security, the CIA, the IRS, or the FBI, may just have their eye on you. “Though nowhere near as massive as the NSA programs, the polygraph inquiry is another example of the federal government’s vast appetite for Americans’ personal information and the sweeping legal authority it wields in the name of national security.” –McClatchy According to an investigative report published by McClatchy on Thursday, that’s because a list generated by … Continue reading Ever Purchase a Book on Lying?

If there are too many warm bodies present, the device owner would be prompted to purchase a license for a greater number of viewers. No, really. It’s that blunt. From the abstract: “The users consuming the content on a display device are monitored so that if the number of user-views … Continue reading Microsoft’s new Kinect patent goes Big Brother, will spy on you for the MPAA

Fernando Kaskais

None other than Judge Jed Rakoff, who has heard many of the major financial suits brought over the course of the last few years, spoke the other day to the New York City Bar Association regarding the question so many in our nation still ask, “Why have no high level executives been prosecuted in connection with the financial crisis?” In what might have been a fabulous foreword to my upcoming book, Rakoff skillfully delivers what I believe is an incredibly excoriating indictment of those within the Department of Justice,the SEC, and elsewhere. . . . if, by contrast, the Great … Continue reading Judge Rakoff: Why Have No High Level Executives Been Prosecuted In Connection With The Financial Crisis?
