The failure of affirmative action in South Africa

Black empowerment has done little more than create a small class of unproductive but wealthy black crony capitalists. It puts into place absurd policies such as imposing a 12% quota for whites in skilled or top managerial positions even though whites account for 40% of university graduates.

The racial achievement gap and New York schools

Diane Ravitch:

The federal test - the National Assessment of Educational Progress, or NAEP - is the gold standard of testing. Congress requires all states to take NAEP tests to audit state claims. The federal audit was an embarrassment for New York.

The reading scores released last week show that 36% of New York's fourth-graders - not 77% - are proficient. And unlike the state scores, which have gone up every year without fail, the state scores on NAEP for fourth-graders have been flat since 2002. The federal test continues to show huge achievement gaps: 45% of white students are proficient, as are 52% of Asians. This contrasts with 18% of black students and 22% of Hispanic students.

In eighth grade, the picture is no better. On the NAEP test, 33% of our students are proficient in reading, not the 69% claimed by the state. The federal test shows zero improvement at this grade since 1998. And the racial achievement gap is shocking: 44% of whites are proficient, as are 49% of Asians, but only 13% of blacks and 16% of Hispanics.

Jewish MP Louise Ellman’s son Sean sold the controversial “legal high” mephedrone – known as “meow meow” – in his chain of drug accessory stores

Sean Ellman, 37, is the son of Labour MP for Liverpool Riverside, and vice-chair of the Labour Friends of Israel. Mr Ellman is said to have sold the drug to a journalist at his shop “Dr Herman’s Salsa Shop” in Warrington, Cheshire. Mr Ellman has other stores in Chester, Leeds, Manchester and Liverpool. Four different variants of the drug were available in the shop. The drug is legally sold as plant food but is illegal for human consumption. Louise Ellman has been a vocal anti-drugs campaigner in the House of Commons, adding her voice to those calling for mephedrone to be banned. Six deaths in the last few months have been linked to the drug. The Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs is considering a ban on mephedrone.

5 men have been sentenced to death and 1 jailed for life in India over the 2007 murder of a couple who married against the wishes of village elders

The court in the northern state of Haryana has convicted the men of the murders of Manoj and Babli, who were killed a month after they eloped. Elders said they violated local customs by marrying within the same sub-caste. Observers say this may be the first time an Indian court has awarded such a penalty over an honor killing case. The young couple were kidnapped while they were travelling on a bus in Haryana in 2007. Their bodies were discovered later. Those sentenced to death are all relatives of the girl, Babli, and include her brother, two uncles and two cousins. The head of the village council in Haryana's Kaithal district, which ruled against the couple's marriage, was given life imprisonment. A driver found to have helped abduct the couple was given a seven-year prison term. The village council said that by local tradition people within the same sub-caste are considered to be siblings. The case was brought by the family of Manoj, Babli's husband. Unconfirmed media reports say that the couple had approached the police with their fears shortly before they were kidnapped and killed. Campaigners hailed the verdict as a blow against honor killings, which are quite common in parts of northern India. Such killings have often not been reported or widely discussed in the past because families usually accept the verdicts.

A Hindu holy man in India has quit as head of a religious organization after police launched a probe into allegations of obscenity against him

Nithyananda Swami's announcement came weeks after a video emerged apparently showing him engaging in sexual acts with two women. Nithyananda Swami has a huge following in southern India. The video shocked his devotees and angered locals - his ashram near the southern city of Bangalore was vandalized after TV channels broadcast the video. Police have launched an investigation into the incident - a senior detective has said that they were investigating whether the guru had "outraged religious feelings" of his devotees. The 32-year-old said in a statement that he was resigning as the head of his organization, Dhyanapeetam (Knowledge Center), and from all the trusts associated with him. His organization has branches in several countries, including the United States and Europe.

In the video shown to Manchester Crown Crown, Williams, 37, urged the children to say goodbye to their mother. He has been told he will serve a minimum of 28 years in prison. Mr Justice Parker, sentencing, said it was hard to conceive any more shocking crime. The court was told that Zimbabwe-born Williams deliberately chose Internet connection cords to choke the children to punish his wife for using dating websites after the breakdown of their marriage.

Trials of a disposable toilet bag have been carried out by families in the Kenyan slum of Kibera

The Peepoo is a small biodegradable bag coated with a chemical which turns human waste into fertilizer. Kibera - East Africa's largest informal settlement - lacks sewers and suffers from poor levels of sanitation. Residents frequently use polythene bags, known as flying toilets, to dispose of their waste. It is hoped the Peepoo will provide a cleaner, more environmentally friendly alternative to the flying toilets, which have contaminated Kibera's water sources and caused the spread of disease.

An Islamic court in Nigeria has permanently banned a rights group from holding an Internet debate about amputation as a form of punishment

The ban was sought by a pro-Sharia group which said Internet sites would be used to mock Islamic law. The Sharia code runs alongside secular law in 12 of Nigeria's 36 states. In 2000, Malam Buba Bello Jangebe was the first person in Nigeria to have an amputation carried out under Islamic law after being found guilty of stealing a cow. The Civil Rights Congress of Nigeria started a Twitter feed, blog and Facebook debate about it so Nigerians could air their opinions on Sharia law as a whole but the Association of Muslim Brotherhood of Nigeria, a pro-Sharia group based in the northern city of Kaduna, argued that the forums would mock the Sharia system.

Scientists have shown they can change people's moral judgements by disrupting a specific area of the brain with magnetic pulses

The researchers identified a region of the brain just above and behind the right ear which appears to control morality and by using magnetic pulses to block cell activity they impaired volunteers' notion of right and wrong. The key area of the brain is a knot of nerve cells known as the right temporo-parietal junction (RTPJ). Previous work has shown the RTPJ to be highly active when people think about the thoughts and beliefs of others.

Illegal immigrants, violence, drugs and gang crime

The illegal immigrants being held in area jails are increasingly charged with violent crimes as law enforcement agencies focus on taking murderers, rapists and gang members off the streets. Nearly half of the criminal charges filed against the 274 inmates who were being held at the end of February 2010 on Immigration and Customs Enforcement warrants in Fairfax, Alexandria and D.C. jails related to violence, drugs and gang participation. A senior ICE official said the agency has made targeting violent criminals who are in the country illegally a priority.

Over 3,000 white farmers have been killed in South Africa since 1994 and the ANC is accused of fanning the hate

Death has stalked South Africa’s white farmers for years. The number murdered since the end of apartheid in 1994 has passed 3,000. In neighboring Zimbabwe, a campaign of intimidation that began in 2000 has driven more than 4,000 commercial farmers off their land. The vulnerability felt by South Africa’s 40,000 remaining white farmers intensified when Julius Malema, head of the African National Congress’s (ANC’s) youth league, opened a public rally by singing Dubula Ibhunu, or Shoot the Boer, an apartheid-era anthem.

How the Jewish mind works

Halfsigma:

The story in the book of Exodus is really about one of the very first revolutions against value transference. According to Exodus, Pharaoh enslaved the Hebrews and made them build his cities and monuments. But the Jews decided they had enough, and not only did they escape, they slew every firstborn Egyptian male and destroyed all of Pharaoh’s army in the process. This was proper and just punishment for value transference.

Apparently killing the children of a nation for the actions of its leaders is proper and just to Jews like "Halfsigma".

Demographics are avatars of a change bigger than any bill contemplated by Obama or Congress. The week before the health care vote, The Times reported that births to Asian, black and Hispanic women accounted for 48 percent of all births in America in the 12 months ending in July 2008. By 2012, the next presidential election year, non-Hispanic white births will be in the minority. The Tea Party movement is virtually all white. The Republicans haven’t had a single African-American in the Senate or the House since 2003 and have had only three in total since 1935. Their anxieties about a rapidly changing America are well-grounded.

Black man cuts out other man's eyes

Anthony Blakely was satisfied with guilty verdicts against the Jacksonville man who cut his eyeballs out during a 2008 attack, but he said it's still hard to grasp how much of life's beauty was stolen from him that night. A jury convicted Foster Rayfield Leon of kidnapping and attempted second-degree murder with a weapon. Leon, a 32-year-old career criminal, faces a life prison sentence. Blakely, 40, was a disc jockey at Starlite Cafe in Five Points the night of July 4, 2008, when Leon first befriended him then turned on him. He told different people at the bar that Blakely was looking at his girlfriend or that he wouldn't play one of her requests. Blakely testified during the two-day trial that Leon beat him unconscious in front of the Starlite then was beating him again when he awoke a few blocks away on Herschel Street. When he came to again, his eyeballs were laying on his cheeks and half his right ear had been cut off. Blakely is learning Braille and specialized computer programs for blind. He said he still struggles with feelings of anger and the adjustment of losing his sight at 38. Jurors deliberated about 95 minutes before reaching their verdict. Leon leaned back in his chair but showed little outward reaction.

Jewish rapist told probation officer victims should learn to lock doors

A Jewish college student convicted of raping two young women in their residence-room beds has suggested they should learn to keep their doors locked. The startling comment by Daniel Katsnelson was made during an interview with a probation officer, Crown attorney Andrew Locke said during sentencing submissions in Ontario Superior Court. The Crown is asking that Katsnelson, 27, be sentenced to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to sexual assault and sexual assault causing bodily harm. Katsnelson indicated he hoped his victims could take something "positive" away from the experience of being sexually assaulted. "When asked what that might be, he suggested that maybe she will now know to keep her doors locked," the pre-sentence report stated. Katsnelson has admitted he was "prowling" Vanier residence at York University in the early morning hours of Sept. 7, 2007, and "hoping to get lucky" after a night of drinking. The college graduate and his friend Justin Connort managed to enter the building under the pretext of helping an intoxicated friend. Instead, the two men went from room to room, looking for doors that were open. (Connort pleaded guilty to one count of sexual assault in December 2008, and was sentenced to three years in prison). Their first victim, who was 17 at the time, was asleep and unaware her roommate had left and did not lock the door. "Do you want to get lucky with a couple Jewish guys?" the woman was asked by Katsnelson and Connort. They took off her clothes and Katsnelson had "vaginal intercourse from behind without her consent," the court heard. They took photos of her and left after she resisted a second attempt at intercourse. The victim read out a victim impact statement in court yesterday, and stated she has suffered severe psychological trauma from the attack. " I have been given a life sentence through no fault of my own," she stated. After trying to get into several other rooms, Katsnelson had intercourse with an 18-year-old student without her consent, the court heard. The second victim told Superior Court Justice Ian Mac-Donnell that she lost her virginity in the sexual assault. "I feel like damaged goods. I have lost my sense of independence. I am sure I will never be the same," said the young woman, during a brief, but emotional victim impact statement.

Obamacare and India

Rob Sanchez:

Obama’s national health care program will cause new pressure to reduce costs, and with it more U.S. jobs will be moved to lower cost locales such as India’s business process outsourcing (BPO) juggernaut. Indian BPOs anticipate that Obamacare will spur more U.S. dollars to flow to their country, which will in turn create jobs for Indians and increased profits for companies who do the work in India. The optimism of Indian BPOs seems justified considering that huge parts of our healtcare infrastructure have already moved to India.

When the Obama administration isn't trying to bring foreigners into the country, they are busy finding new ways to send jobs out of it.

Even for a black criminal Albert Bailey is pretty stupid

Authorities in Connecticut say two would-be robbers tried phoning in to pull off a bank heist. It didn't work. The attempted bank job unfolded at a branch of the People's Bank in Fairfield. Authorities said a bank employee received a phone call from a person demanding that $100,000 in large bills be gathered, or there would be a blood bath if the orders were not carried out. The employee hung up the phone and immediately called 911. The bank also initiated a lockdown but not before the caller's accomplice was already inside. The accomplice handed a teller a note demanding money at the exact same time the bank employee was talking on the phone to the police. After passing the note and collecting about $900, the suspect asked to be let out of the bank. By this time, patrol cars were on the scene. The suspect left the bank and encountered a police officer who ordered him to stop. The suspect then tried to run to the car where the other suspect was waiting. Both were arrested without incident. Police identified one suspect as Albert Bailey, 27, of Bridgeport, Connecticut. The other suspect is a juvenile. The two are charged with first degree robbery and threatening in the first degree. Bailey is on probation for another bank hold-up several years ago. The robbers insisted that the money waiting for them not be put in a dye pack. Their wishes were not followed, and a bag of cash exploded in dye when one of the suspects threw it on the ground.

Prostate cancer seems to be biologically and genetically more aggressive in black males than in white men. The prevalence of extensive high-grade disease by the age of 40 years or older was significantly greater in blacks than in whites, at 46% versus 29%. Data shows that black males are four times more likely to develop distance metastases between the ages of 40 and 49 years than white men. Factors such as obesity and hypertension impact prostate cancer development, and rates of these are more prevalent among blacks than among whites.

Minnesota outperforms many other states in reading, but the gap between black and white students hasn't narrowed since 1992

Minnesota's students once again outperformed much of the nation on reading tests in 2009, but the achievement gap between black and white students hasn't budged in almost 20 years, according to the latest test results. The state's persistent, vexing achievement gap has become a long-term blemish on an otherwise good reputation for educational performance. The 2009 results of what's commonly called the "Nation's Report Card" show that Washington, D.C., is the only jurisdiction with a black-white gap statistically larger than Minnesota's in fourth grade, and that Connecticut is the only state with a larger gap in eighth grade, although some states didn't report enough data to be counted. The report card, officially titled the National Assessment of Educational Progress, shows that only three states outperformed Minnesota in reading by eighth-graders, and six outperformed the state in reading by fourth-graders. The state is statistically tied with 23 states in fourth-grade and 15 states in eighth-grade. Minnesota's girls scored higher than its boys in both grades. The gap between white and black fourth-graders hasn't narrowed since 1992, the first year data were available. The same is true of eighth-graders since 1998, the first year of available data for that grade. Likewise, the achievement gap between students who receive "free and reduced-price lunch" and those who don't has not changed since 1998, the earliest it was measured.

What have we learned from school statistics?

Steve Sailer:

The overwhelming finding, going back to James S. Coleman's 1966 report funded by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, is that race matters in school performance. Persistently large racial gaps are the single most obvious fact about educational performance.

But making the racial gaps go away is also the highest priority of educational research, which debilitates the research. Wishful thinking is preferred.

Actually I don't think that making the racial gap go away is a priority for many in this country. The racial gap has been used by some as evidence that white gentiles are oppressing blacks and Hispanics. Therefore maintaining the racial gap serves the political agenda of these people which is to demonize white gentiles as much as possible. Interestingly the fact that Ashkenazi Jews and northeast Asians outperform most white gentiles on IQ tests and academically is never taken as evidence that these groups are oppressing white gentiles. In the politically-correct, multicultural worldview white gentiles can only be oppressors, never the oppressed.

The white-black gap in 4th grade reading scores is by far the largest in the most liberal jurisdiction, the District of Columbia

Steve Sailer on the NAEP 2009 reading scores:

Nationwide, it's 25 points, but in DC it's 60 points. The next biggest white-black gaps for 4th graders are in Minnesota (35 points) and Wisconsin (35). The smallest white-black gaps are in West Virginia (12 points -- dumb whites), New Hampshire and Vermont (few blacks), and Pentagon-run schools (need a 92 IQ to enlist).

Indeed, DC has by far the highest scoring white kids (15 points ahead of Massachusetts). It's black students are no longer the lowest scoring, being four points ahead of Wisconsin. (The worst scoring black 4th graders are in the socially liberal Old Northwest: Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota. This is probably due in part to high welfare payments and easy eligibility requirements in the 1960s attracting the most feckless Southern blacks.)

Unfortunately, there aren't enough white 8th graders in DC public schools for the NAEP to come up with an adequate sample size of white 8th graders in DC.

NCAA basketball and the graduation gap between black and white athletes

In its annual report, the Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sports found that of the 65 teams in the field, 45 teams graduated 70% or more of their white players, while only 20 graduated at least 70% of their black players. In men’s basketball, schools like Kansas and Duke graduate a high percentage of their players, both white and black. Kansas graduates 67% of its black players and 75% of its white players. Duke graduates 89% of its black players and 100% of its white players. But at Ohio State, Michigan State and Kentucky black athletes do very poorly. Ohio State graduates 50% of its black players but 100% of its white ones. Michigan State graduates 44% of its black players but 100% of its white ones and Kentucky graduates only 18% of its black players versus 100% of its white players.

The 2009 graduation rate for minorities in Connecticut was dismal

A rabbi has been arrested for raping a 7-year-old girl

Rabbi Bryan Bramley has been arrested in the 2000 rape of a 7-year-old girl in New York City. The U.S. Marshals Service says that its Child Predator Apprehension Team and detectives with the New York Police Department picked up the 45-year-old outside of the Temple Beth Shalom Synagogue in Chandler, where he is the lead rabbi. At the time of the rape, Bramley was living in his family's New York City home while he was studying to be a rabbi. According to the U.S. Marshals Service, the 7-year-old victim was sleeping over at the Bramley house when the rape occurred. Bramley hasn't been on the run for a decade - the alleged victim only came forward and filed charges in August 2009, when she was 17. Rabbi Bramley is in Maricopa County jail awaiting extradition to New York to face a first-degree rape charge.

Witchcraft in Mexico

In secret meetings that draw on elements of Haitian Voodoo, Cuban Santeria and Mexican witchcraft, priests are slaughtering chickens on full moon nights on beaches, smearing Mexican police with the blood and using prayers to evoke spirits to guard them as drug cartels battle over smuggling routes into California. Other police in the Mexican city of Tijuana, across the border from San Diego, tattoo their bodies with Voodoo symbols, believing they can repel bullets. Mexican priests and police say the animal sacrifices release life to rejuvenate spirits that will shield officers against killers. They believe the effects are intensified on full moon nights. Many Mexican police see a need to shield themselves from witchcraft used by drug gangs who mix Caribbean black magic and occultism from southern Mexico using things like human bones, dead bats and snake fangs to curse enemies and unleash evil spirits.

The more immigrants who come in and become citizens, the better it is for the Democratic party

Almost all immigrants, legal and illegal, are poorer and less skilled than Americans, and depend far more upon government. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, of recent immigrants who became citizens by 2008, by 55-30 they identified as Democrats. Among immigrants who have not yet become citizens, 70% identify as Democrats, 15% as Republicans. The sooner Democrats get them naturalized, registered and voting, the sooner the death knell tolls for the Republicans.

Democrats are losing white support particularly amongst blue collar white men

Among whites, only 35% of men and 43% of women say they will back Democrats in the fall election. Women’s preferences have remained steady since July 2009. But over that same period, white men’s support for a Democratic Congress has fallen eight points, according to Gallup. Blue-collar men have suffered 57% of the job losses. And blue-collar white men, who make up only 11% of the workforce, constitute 36% of those who have lost jobs. In total, nearly half of the recession’s casualties are white men, having held 46% of all jobs lost.

Karl Rove versus America

Steve Sailer once again takes Karl Rove to task:

Rove’s latest spin is that the Bush Administration should have pushed immigration up to 2005 to build a Spirit of Bipartisanship. As he writes on p. 409:

"In retrospect, it was a mistake to lead the second term by pressing for Social Security reform. If we had led with immigration reform—another issue the president cared about deeply—we would almost certainly have gotten it passed because Democrats said they would work with Bush on it. That success might have produced enough bipartisan confidence to tackle Social Security."

Pretty flat learning curve on this here Boy Genius.

The Kennedy-McCain amnesty bill failed in 2006 because the public felt the elites were teaming up against them. Rove’s considered view in 2010 is that the elites’ big mistake was in not teaming up against us earlier.

Rove is probably the only man in America who can guarantee Obama a second term as President.

British actresses who appear in Bollywood films are being targeted in a hate campaign by one of India's most feared political leaders

Raj Thackeray's Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS), a Mumbai nationalist street gang and political party which inspires terror throughout the city, has called on foreign white actresses to go home. His campaign for a ban on the estimated 1,000 British and other foreign actors who regularly appear in Bollywood films has been widely criticised but many foreign actors are too afraid to speak out. Thackeray is especially feared in Bollywood, where he has the power to shut productions and close cinemas. The campaign for a ban comes as increasing numbers of European and South American actresses are finding roles in Bollywood movies.

Is mass immigration a form of ethnic aggression to dispossess the white majority population?

Fjordman on Jews and immigration:

I correspond with a person in Norway sometimes, a Leftist actually, but about as intelligent and sensible as you can get and still be left-of-the-center. He predicts that there will be a serious eruption of Jew hatred in the United States in the near future when the economy tanks for real. Unfortunately, few people will have done more to fuel this than Thomas Friedman, an enthusiastic supporter of the ridiculous policy of exporting democracy to Iraq and of the continued mass immigration of Third World peoples, policies that are now crippling the US economy.

If we take a friendly approach we can perhaps say that Ashkenazi Jews support ethnocentrism for themselves but obstruct it for European Gentiles because they fear a Nazi-like society. The problem with this is that if you seriously believe that the white majority are a bunch of crypto-Nazis in the waiting then perhaps you should go and live somewhere else. If I lived in a country where I thought that most people were just waiting for an excuse to massacre me then I would leave.

Besides, the truth is that while Jews have sometimes been mistreated in some European countries they have been generally well treated in the United States. This means that the mass immigration supported by people like Mr. Friedman is starting to look like a form of ethnic aggression to dispossess the white majority population. This is a dangerous policy that will fuel resentment. Moreover, it doesn't make sense for Jews themselves to undermine one of the most pro-Jewish countries on the planet.

Rebuilding is difficult due to a lack of building materials during the three-year blockade.

Blacks, vitamin D and asthma

Researchers have discovered that African American children with asthma are significantly more likely to have low levels of vitamin D than healthy African American children. This study supports recent research that suggests vitamin D plays a greater role in the body than just keeping bones healthy. Vitamin D deficiency has been recently linked to a variety of non-bone related diseases including depression, autoimmune disorders, and now asthma. It has been well-documented that as a group, African Americans are more likely than other racial groups to have low levels of vitamin D. The researchers were shocked to see that almost all of the African American children with asthma that were tested had low vitamin D levels. After adjusting for differences in age, weight, and the time of year of the testing, the odds of these kids with asthma being vitamin D deficient were nearly twenty times those of healthy kids. The research team found that 86% of the children in the study with asthma had insufficient levels of vitamin D, while only 19% of non-asthmatics had these low levels. These findings may mean that low vitamin D levels have more serious effects on a child's lung health than previously believed.

Black children are less likely than white or Asian children to develop shingles after receiving the varicella vaccine to prevent chickenpox

A new study shows that shingles risk is 60% lower in black children compared to white children and 70% lower compared to Asian children. The lower risk in black children is consistent with previous studies showing that rates of shingles are lower in black than white adults. The lower risk of shingles found in both black children and adults may be due to genetic factors.

A man has been charged with the murder of a 20-year-old victim of a so-called honor killing in England

Banaz Mahmod disappeared from her south London home in January 2006. Her body was found in a suitcase in Handsworth, Birmingham, three months later. Three men, including her father and uncle, were found guilty of her murder. Police have now charged Omar Hussain, 30, of Messenger Road in Smethwick, Birmingham, with murder. He is also charged with the attempted kidnap of Miss Mahmod's boyfriend, Rahmat Suleimani, and attempting to pervert the course of justice. The victim's father Mahmod Mahmod, and her uncle Ari Mahmod, were jailed for life following a trial at the Old Bailey in 2007. A third man, Mohammed Hama, was also jailed for carrying out the killing.

Five children poisoned to death in a village in India may have been sacrificed

Police say that the children were killed in Maharashtra state by a childless couple in a suspected black magic ritual to enable them to conceive. The couple and parents of the accused husband have been arrested. Black magic is sometimes carried out in poorer parts of India by people who believe it will provide benefits. These can include helping childless women to bear children and producing more rainfall. Police say they are looking for the tantrik, or witch doctor, who advised the couple to sacrifice eleven children in accordance with black magic rituals. All the children were aged between two and four and were related to each other.

In a new study, smoking has been linked to lower IQs

A direct correlation has been found between the number of cigarettes a smoker inhales and his IQ. People with lower IQs are the ones who tend to be smokers and the heavier the smoker, the lower the IQ. Some media reports distorted the findings of the study and reported that smoking actually damages your IQ, but the researchers says this is not likely the case, and it's not what they found in their study. The scientists say that it is very clear that people with low IQs are the ones who choose to smoke. The study shows that there could be a new intervention approach for health specialists at schools and in institutions where young people and teens are at risk for smoking. People with lower IQs could be targeted for specialized programs, helping them to kick or avoid the habit altogether. The researchers see their study as something that adds another piece of the puzzle to a larger group of studies ongoing around the world. Some scientists are testing the hypothesis that on average, people with lower IQs tend to make poorer decisions regarding their health. The team found that 18-year-old men who smoke a pack or more of cigarettes a day were likely to have an IQ score that on average is 7.5 points lower than that of young men who choose not to smoke.

Black women who tend to eat foods more likely to lead to higher blood sugar may have slightly greater risk for uterine fibroids

Uterine fibroids - noncancerous growths that often cause heavy menstrual bleeding and cramping during childbearing years - are 2 to 3 times more likely in black women than in other American women. A team of researchers studied nearly 21,900 pre-menopausal black women. Subjects filled out food questionnaires in 1995 and 2001, and the investigators calculated the women's glycemic index and glycemic load, two indicators of how the food they ate was likely to affect their blood sugar levels. Low glycemic index and load foods - apples or whole beans for example - gradually release sugars into the blood. By contrast, those with high glycemic index and load, such as sugary drinks and pastries, white bread, and white rice, release sugars rapidly and cause the body to release hormones to compensate for blood sugar spikes. Between 1997 through 2007, the team found 5800 women with uterine fibroids diagnosed during ultrasound or hysterectomy. Those with higher versus lower glycemic index levels generally had greater fibroid risk after allowing for multiple other factors potentially associated with the development of fibroids. Scientists are not sure why diet might affect the growth of fibroids. One possibility, however, is the effect of foods on blood sugar. Higher-carbohydrate diets can lead to higher insulin levels, which are in turn linked to levels of other hormones thought to encourage fibroid growth.

Girls as young as two are falling victim to rapists who are preying on women and children left homeless by the devastating earthquake in Haiti

Rape is rife in the sprawling tent cities that have become home for hundreds of thousands of Haitians and men are demanding sexual favors in return for food and shelter, according to a new report. Doctors are treating children aged two and seven who have been raped at a refugee camp set up on a golf course in Port-au-Prince. One 21-year-old mother, who said she was gang raped by three men, complained her family had received no food aid because Haitian men were demanding sex before they would hand over distribution coupons. Besides sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy, victims face possible AIDS infection. Haiti has the highest HIV rate in the Western Hemisphere, with one in 50 people infected.

A receding hairline can be a good thing, according to scientists, who say men who go bald by 30 appear to be less likely to develop prostate cancer

Researchers studied 2,000 men aged between 40 and 47. They were able to link high levels of the male hormone testosterone in those who lose their hair earlier with a lower risk of tumors. Half of the men in this study had suffered prostate cancer. Researchers compared the rate of tumors in those who said their hair had thinned by the age of 30 with those who did not suffer hair loss. Men who had started to develop bald spots on the top of their heads as well as receding hairlines had a 29% to 45% reduction in the risk of prostate cancer. By age 30, approximately 25-30% of men will have some baldness, researchers believe. Half of all men suffer significant hair loss by the age of 50. Baldness is caused when hair follicles become exposed to too much dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This is a chemical produced by the male hormone testosterone. Experts believe that men with high levels of testosterone are more likely to lose their hair, especially if baldness runs in the family. Prostate cancer sufferers are often given drugs to reduce testosterone levels because they can accelerate the growth of some tumors once they develop. But this study suggests that high levels of testosterone from a young age might protect against the disease.

The United States is a poodle of Israel

Pat Buchanan on Israel:

Israel keeps its own interests foremost in mind, and when these dictate actions inimical to U.S. interests, Israel acts unilaterally. David Ben-Gurion did not seek Dwight Eisenhower’s permission to attack Egypt in collusion with the French and British in 1956, enraging Ike.

Israel did not consult JFK on whether it could steal enriched uranium from the NUMEC plant in Pennsylvania for its atom bomb program.

Israel did not consult us on whether it could attack the USS Liberty in the Six-Day War, or suborn Jonathan Pollard to loot our security secrets, or transfer our weapons technology to China. They went ahead and did it, knowing the Americans would swallow hard and take it.

Ehud Olmert did not consult President-elect Obama on whether to launch a war on Gaza and kill 1,400 Palestinians. Nor did Netanyahu consult us before Mossad took down the Hamas minister in Dubai.

What Netanyahu and Yishai are telling Obama with their decision to keep building on occupied land is, “When it comes to East Jerusalem and the West Bank, we decide, not you.”

When will the leaders of the United States stand up for our interests and stop pandering to the Israel Lobby?

Bush, Rove and 9-11

Steve Sailer on Karl Rove's autobiography:

Edmund Burke described prudence as the “first of all virtues”. To Bush and Rove, though, prudence equals prejudice. They were just as much true believers in multicultural dogmas as their Democratic opponents and the press corps.

Thus, for example, Rove somehow forgets to mention his amazing 1997-2001 crusade alongside Beltway Right activist Grover Norquist to win the (ludicrously small) Arab and Muslim vote by abolishing the Clinton Administration’s use of ethnicity in profiling for airport security and also the use of “secret evidence” against terrorism suspects. According to Norquist, Rove phoned him not once but twice during the October 11, 2000 Presidential debate to point out Bush’s demands for less protection against skyjackers. Rove asked Norquist to “put the word out” among Muslims voters.

But, three days later, Al Gore agreed with Bush at a meeting with Muslim politicians. So, because it lacked partisan salience, Bush’s campaign to make sure Mohammed Atta didn’t get extra scrutiny at the airport has vanished from the American media’s memory.

There is one interesting historical tidbit in Courage and Consequence. I had long heard assertions by Islamist extremists, such as Sami al-Arian, that Bush was actually scheduled to meet with them in the White House on the afternoon of September 11, 2001 to brief them on his war on anti-terrorism. But that was so bitterly ironic that I assumed it must be an urban legend.

Remarkably, however, in his chapter on 9/11, Rove blithely confirms that it’s true (p. 266):

“Coincidentally, the president was to have met at 3:05 p.m. with American Muslim leaders after his planned return from the Florida education event. He had been scheduled to spend forty minutes, first with a small group in the Oval Office and then with a larger one in the Roosevelt Room.”

Rove’s attitude seems to be this: The Democrats didn’t criticize Bush for it, so there’s no reason not to admit it.

To Rove, this anecdote merely illustrates Bush’s “compassionate conservatism”.

Why is it that both the Democrats and the Repubicans are out to destroy the United States in the name of diversity?

Two men have been charged in Ireland in connection with an investigation into an alleged plot to murder a Swedish cartoonist

They were arrested over threats to kill Lars Vilks over a cartoon which put Prophet Muhammad's head on a dog. The cartoon was printed as part of a 2007 Swedish newspaper editorial on freedom of expression. They were refused bail after detectives told the court they were not convinced their identities were authentic. Ali Charaf Damache, whose address was given as John Collins House, High Street, Waterford, was charged with sending a menacing text message on 9 January, 2010. The 44-year-old, who is originally from Algeria but who has been living in Ireland for about ten years, swore on the Koran before taking the stand at Waterford District Court. Abdul Salam Monsour Khalil Al-Jahani, 32, of Johnstown, Waterford but originally from Libya, was charged with an immigration offence after allegedly giving a false name. He is accused of presenting false documentation under the Immigration Act 2004. In 2007, a group linked to al-Qaeda in Iraq offered a $100,000 (£66,000) reward for killing Vilks, and a 50% bonus if he was "slaughtered like a lamb" by having his throat cut.

Muslim gangs in British prisons

The Muslim prison population in England and Wales has sharply increased in recent years. Many former inmates and prison officers claim gangs of Muslim prisoners are an increasingly powerful force. Muslims represent 12% (9,795) of the prison population in England and Wales, according to the latest available figures from 2008. This has risen by 50% over five years. In some high security prisons, the figures are well above average. In 2008, Muslim prisoners accounted for a third (34%) of prisoners in HMP Whitemoor, in March, Cambridgeshire, and about a quarter (24%) of inmates in HMP Long Lartin, in Evesham, Worcestershire. Non-Muslim prisoners have been seriously assaulted and intimidated for refusing to abide by unofficial rules imposed by Muslim gangs, about eating pork or listening to Western music.

Al-Qaida also offered $50,000 extra if the cartoonist's throat was slit. Four men and three women were arrested in Waterford and Cork. Irish police said the men and women were arrested as part of an investigation into a conspiracy to commit a serious offense, namely, conspiracy to murder an individual.

Free will and biology

Biologist says that it is illogical to believe that individuals are in control of their behavior in a manner that is something other than a reflection of their genetic makeup and their environmental history.

Research has discovered a genetic mutation in African-American men with a family history of prostate cancer who are at increased risk for the disease

Researchers have identified an inheritable genetic defect in the receptor for the male hormone, androgen (testosterone), that may contribute to the development of prostate cancer and its progression. Scientific reports linking inheritable androgen receptor mutations to prostate cancer in Caucasians are rare, and this is the first one that focuses on the African-American population. Scientists discovered this genetic change by testing DNA extracted from white blood cells of African-American and Caucasian men from Louisiana who had a proven medical history of prostate cancer in their families. They detected this mutation only in African-American men with prostate cancer. The researchers believe that this mutation increases the risk of the development and progression of prostate cancer. African-American men have a higher incidence and death rate from prostate cancer, as well as clinically more aggressive disease than Caucasians. Between 2001 and 2005, the prostate cancer incidence rate was 59% higher in African-American men. African-American men also have the highest mortality rate for prostate cancer of any racial or ethnic group in the United States. The death rate for prostate cancer is 2.4 times higher in African-American men than white men in the United States.

America’s Jewish ruling class

Steve Sailer has some advice for our Jewish overlords:

American Jews should start thinking of themselves less as oppressed outcasts who need to go for whatever they can get while the getting is good, and start more accurately thinking of themselves as belonging to the best-connected inner circle of the contemporary American Establishment.

Thus, American Jews should realize that, like the Protestant elite of yore, their privileged position as a de facto leadership caste bestows upon themselves corresponding duties to conserve the long-term well-being of the United States—rather than to indulge in personal and ethnic profit and power maximization.

But that’s unlikely to happen until the Jewish elite to begin to tolerate non-Jewish criticism, rather than to continue to try to destroy the careers of critics—or even just honest observers—in what seems to be an instinctive reaction intended to encourage the others.

A group self-image of victimization, combined with a penchant for ideological intensity and powerful ethnocentric lobbies, can lead to bizarre political manifestations—such as the dominant Jewish assumption that proper veneration of their Ellis Island ancestors requires opposition to patriotic immigration reform today.

For thousands of years the Jews have tried to undermine every gentile population that they have encountered. If Sailer really believes that they are going to stop doing this now that they run the United States then he must be a fool.

RE: Noblesse Oblige

Alcohol consumption may be associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer in African-American men

A team collected data, including information on alcohol intake, from 334 men undergoing prostate biopsy from 2007 to 2009. Overall, regular consumption of three alcoholic drinks per week was associated with a significant 2.46 times increased risk of prostate cancer. When the investigators stratified subjects by race, alcohol intake was associated with a significant fivefold increased risk of prostate cancer in African Americans but a non-significant 85% increased risk in Caucasians. There may be genetic differences in the way African Americans metabolize alcohol. If the findings are confirmed in other populations public awareness of the negative effects of alcohol intake on prostate cancer, specifically in African Americans, should be promoted. Most studies examining the association between alcohol consumption and prostate cancer risk have found no link, but these studies have involved predominantly Caucasian men. Previous studies have found that certain polymorphisms of the alcohol dehydrogenase gene specific to African and Native Americans may lead to bodily accumulations of acetaldehyde, a carcinogen.

A majority of Americans say the United States is less respected in the world than it was in 2008

The Democracy Corps-Third Way survey found that by a 10-point margin - 51% to 41% - Americans think the standing of the U.S. dropped during the first 13 months of Obama's presidency. On the national security front, a massive gap has emerged, with 50% of likely voters saying Republicans would likely do a better job than Democrats, a 14-point swing since May 2009. Thirty-three percent favored Democrats. A May 2009 survey by the pollsters found the public saw the Democratic and Republican parties as equally able to handle national security (41% trusted Democrats more, and 43% trusted Republicans more.) On conducting the war on terrorism, the two parties were tied at 41%. In addition, the detention of terrorist suspects and the Obama proposal to prosecute suspects in civil trials in New York City, which was later abandoned, also have taken a toll on the president's approval ratings. Democracy Corps calls itself an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to making the government of the United States more responsive to the American people." It was founded in 1999 by former Clinton adviser James Carville and Stanley Greenberg, a leading Democratic pollster.

Hispanics and crime

From National Review:

Unz is wrong when he says that Hispanics are no more criminal than whites. Hispanics are, in fact, substantially more likely than whites to commit serious crimes, and U.S.-born Hispanics in particular are about two and a half times more likely. These findings are not due to age differences or immigration violations or other statistical artifacts. The reality of Hispanic crime should be one of the many factors we consider when setting immigration policy.

Genes and alcoholism

There may be an association between alcoholism and a cluster of genes on chromosome 11, according to researchers who analyzed the genomes of nearly 1,900 white and black Americans. Both genetic and environmental factors contribute to alcoholism. So far, researchers have identified several genes associated with the disorder.

British scientists have succeeded in proving the Lemba tribe of Zimbabwe and South Africa descended from Jewish ancestors

Scientists conducted DNA tests on a large sample of the Lemba people, which confirmed Semitic origins dating back more than two millennia. The 80,000 Lemba tribe members abstain from eating pork, wear yarmulke-like skull caps, conduct ritual animal slaughter, and even put a Star of David on their gravestones. The report says the tribe has an oral tradition that links them to the ancient Jews. They also circumcise their male children, which is not a common practice in Zimbabwe, but is one of the basic principles of the Jewish faith. Members of the priestly clan of the Lemba even have a genetic element also found among the Jewish priestly line - known as Cohen. In addition, the report says, the Lemba have a sacred prayer language that combines Hebrew and Arabic, which indicates their roots were in Israel and Yemen. The tribe even uses a religious artifact they say connects them to their Jewish ancestry - a replica of the Biblical Ark known as the ngoma lungundu, meaning "the drum that thunders," which they say was made by Moses. The tribe's oral tradition says that centuries ago a small group of men began a long journey carrying the ngoma lungundu from Yemen to southern Africa. The Ark went missing during the 1970s and was eventually rediscovered in Harare in 2007.

Interracial divorce and white women

Interracial marriages that have one white person and one person of another race mostly only show higher divorce rates when the white spouse is a female. Black husband/white wife marriages are twice as likely to divorce as white/white marriages, Asian husband/white wife marriages are about 60% more likely to divorce as white/white marriages and white husband/Asian wife couples had pretty much the same divorce rate as white/white couples. Compared to Hispanic/Hispanic couples, Hispanic white/white couples showed a higher likelihood of divorce. Likewise, Asian/white couples were more likely to divorce than Asian/Asian couples. However, black/white couples only show a higher rate of divorce compared to black/black couples if the white person in the relationship is a woman.

Why do nice girls fall for bad boys?

In February 2010, Hispanics gained jobs at nearly four times the rate of Non-Hispanics

Some disturbing facts:

Over the past year the number of unemployed native-born workers rose faster than unemployed foreign-born — by 17.3% versus 14.0%. This occurred despite the fact that the native-born left the labor force in far greater numbers: More than two and one half million natives bailed out in the 12 months ending February 2010, versus only 137,000 immigrants. The growth rate of native labor force dropouts (3.7%) was more than three times that of their foreign-born counterparts (1.2%). Labor force dropouts are not counted as “unemployed” although most are too discouraged to even look for work. And then there is the relentless growth in foreign-born working age population (16 years and older). It rose 1.7% from February 2009 to February 2010, or by more than twice the 0.7% rise in the comparable native-born population during the same period.

Austerism

Dennis Mangan on Larry Auster:

Now, I don't agree with Hoste's statement, nor do I generally agree with a lot of the anti-Israel opinion I see on various right-wing sites. (Doesn't mean that we should be giving Israel billions of dollars a year, or fighting proxy wars for it.) However, it's absurd to condemn an entire publication, especially one that is all of two days old, because you read something on it that you disagree with. Debate is supposed to occur, or so I thought. Auster shows here that he's no different from neocons, who make support of Israel the litmus test for being a good American and good conservative.

But Auster is being, as usual, extremely picky about what he's willing to support. His stands remind me of the joke about Switzerland: everything not forbidden is mandatory. With Auster, everything that doesn't measure up to his exacting standards is to be condemned. He condemns neocons, paleocons, libertarians, liberals, atheists, game advocates - what's left? Only Austerism. Everything else reeks of gnosticism, nihilism, and evil. Or if it doesn't, it simply is not serious.

Anti-Islam leader is major winner in Dutch polls

Dutch anti-Islamist leader Geert Wilders scored major gains in local authority polls. In the first test of public opinion since the collapse of Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende's coalition government, Wilders's Freedom Party (PVV) led in the city of Almere and was second in The Hague. The results came on top of an opinion poll showing that the PVV, which campaigns against Muslim immigration as its main platform, would win the most seats - 27 in the 150-member Dutch parliament - in the June 9, 2010 election. That would make it tough for Balkenende's Christian Democrats, projected to win one seat less, to forge a strong coalition without Wilders. Months of talks between parties, and the resulting policy vacuum, could threaten a fragile economic recovery and cast doubt on the scope of planned budget cuts. Wilders compares Islam to fascism and the Koran to Adolf Hitler's book Mein Kampf. The PVV has been pitching its policies to a nation of 16 million that is turning increasingly inward as the economy struggles and social tensions rise. There are nearly 1 million Muslims in the Netherlands.

Diabetes, race and children

As in adult diabetics, hemoglobin (Hb) A1c levels are higher in black children with type 1 disease than in white children, independent of mean blood glucose, according to a new report. The authors of the report have long been interested in between-individual differences in HbA1c levels. Spurred by reports indicating a role for race and ethnicity in adult diabetic variables, the scientists looked for a similar pattern in their pediatric patients. Their study included 276 children (72% Caucasian, 28% African-American) with an average age of 12.5 years and an average disease duration of 4.9 years. Slightly more than half were girls. Average HbA1c was significantly higher among African Americans than Caucasians after controlling for mean blood glucose, age, and diabetes duration: 9.1% vs 8.3%, respectively (p < 0.001). These findings may help explain why African Americans are at increased risk of diabetes complications, the authors suggest. The researchers advise that both HbA1c and mean blood glucose be taken into account when making therapeutic decisions for diabetics, especially for African Americans.

Monogamy and race

Some 90% of farms redistributed to South Africa's black population from white farmers are not productive

Land reform minister Gugile Nkwinti warned the land might be repossessed if the farms continued to fail. Almost 60,000 sq km (23,000 sq miles) have been redistributed under policies aimed at benefiting black people who were left impoverished by apartheid. The land was bought from white farmers who sold up voluntarily. The government had set a target of 2014 to redistribute one-third of white-owned land back to the black majority. But Nkwinti acknowledged that the deadline would not be kept. He said the focus would now shift to helping the black farmers make their land productive. Land reform is a sensitive issue in South Africa and has been brought into sharp focus by the decline of agriculture in neighboring Zimbabwe, where many white commercial farmers have been violently evicted.

A silver lining in the dark cloud of the American economy

The lousy economy is causing more U.S. Jews to move to Israel. In 2009, almost 4,000 Jews moved to Israel from the United States - the largest number to do so in a single year since 1983. With unemployment rates hovering at around 10%, one ripple effect of America's recession is increased immigration to Israel. Then there are the actual cash incentives Israel offers to ease the way for those immigrating under the country's Law of Return, which offers automatic citizenship to anyone with at least one Jewish grandparent. The Ministry of Immigrant Absorption provides about $4,000 per adult and about $2,000 per child to these immigrants, paid out over seven months. Immigrants are also entitled to free education up to the master's degree level and are customarily granted a 70% - 90% reduction on their property taxes. Plus, they receive discounts and tax waivers on Israeli-made appliances. If that is not enough, additional financial help is available from Nefesh B'Nefesh, a relatively new nongovernmental organization that facilitates immigration for American Jews. About 70% of the immigrants apply for this, according to Danny Oberman, the organization's executive vice president of Israeli operations.

Is Jewish Larry David really 37% Native American?

Larry David recently took a genetic test that apparently showed that over a third of his genome is Native American but his ancestry is Ashkenazi Jewish. How can this be? Many of these genetic tests ignore genetic differences between Europeans and Middle Easterners so when a Jewish or other Middle Eastern person takes one of these tests and is found to have DNA that is commonly found in the Middle East but not Europe, the computer program is left with the problem of how to categorize it. In many programs, any DNA that cannot be easily assigned to Europeans, Africans or East Asians is automatically listed as Native American. Therefore, Larry David's Native American DNA is much more likely to be Semitic genetic material not commonly found amongst native Europeans.

Are WASPs self-destructive or just foolish?

Steve Sailer has been reading the works of Professor Admiral Samuel Eliot Morison, a leading member of the old Protestant establishment. Here is a fact that I had not known before:

To Morison, American liberalism was invented by his ancestors, the descendants of the Puritans. As he made clear in his Oxford History, rudimentary versions of most American progressive movements, including civil rights for blacks, feminism, and the rudiments of the ideology of environmentalism (Thoreau's Walden), were up and running in the greater Boston area by the 1840s.

In other words, American liberalism was invented by the oldest and most socially respectable hereditary elite in the country's least ethnically diverse region, and imposed from the top down.

In other words, it was the WASPs and not the Jews who invented the left-wing ideas that are currently turning the United States into a Third World country. Thanks for nothing you Anglo-Saxon morons!
