I absolutely agree! Unfortunately, the study of history is neglected by most here in the U.S. I have seen some writing which could be nothing more than conjecture, that the Ukrainian oil fields that are largely undeveloped may play into this crisis. Any thoughts on that scenario?

You have a keen understanding as to the political dynamics and history of the region.

Posting the ramblings of Alex Jones is not exactly credible. Have you read Zbigniew Brzezinski's book? That book is on my reading list and to take Jones word which is most likely out of context does not make a valid argument via your cut/paste.

The Ukraine was included in the formation of the USSR in 1922. That is why Ukrainians relate to Russia.
-
That is due to the fact that you fail to write in a clear precise manner. Your narrative is nothing more than fragmented opinions with no real context.

Here are a few Reuters articles. http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/03/17/us-russia-economy-crisis-idUSBREA2G0RF20140317 Reuters article linked to Huffingtonpost. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/03/17/crimea-votes-russia_n_4978631.html

I have read some accounts that more Russian military adventurism may be in the near future. Does this pose a threat to Europe in terms of the economy of the region? Putin wanting to restore the old USSR?

I would suggest reviewing historical accounts in regards to the formation of the Soviet Union, The Warsaw Pact, Comecon, and the invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968. Then you might begin to understand the history of that region. Furthermore, it was the Soviets that built the wall and created a police state in Eastern Germany. After WWII the Soviets acquired the technological means to build nuclear weapons which led to the Cuban Missile Crisis. You seem to be implying that the 'Cold War' was the fault of the West. http://history.state.gov/milestones/1961-1968/soviet-invasion-czechoslavkia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_Union

Maybe Marblehead has a boat dock nearby so we can test the seaworthiness of this grand folly. -

I just don't understand what ark building or creationism debates prove with these people. I see a crane in the background in the video I posted. Did Noah have a crane? -

I have seen an explanation of this microbe and if the organism is deconstructed, each part is a viable organism. That was argued in the trial in Dover Pa. as to whether creationism would be allowed to be taught in public schools. The creationist side used this argument that this particular organism is far too complex to have evolved from a more primitive/simpler existence. A microbiologist eviscerated their argument. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/evolution/intelligent-design-trial.html -

I want to know what position KenBrace takes in regards to evolution. Straight forward answers only. -
What is mainstream kundalini? You only posted something from a biased position with no proof that so called black tantra is evil.

Why not comment as opposed to cut/paste?

The piece on Gurdjieff has many useful points. However, the use of a racial classification, in this case "Aryan", has been used by white supremacists, was a popular theme around the end of the nineteenth century. "Arya" which means noble in Sanskrit, has been corrupted to an entirely different use by hate groups.

I stand by what I stated. He was anthropomorphizing the Tao. Or, reducing the Tao to an anthropocentric concept.

You are anthropomorphizing the Tao. Why would the Tao play favorites?
