This album rules. It’s radical hip-hop that sounds good and carries a lot of information. It’s like gangsta rap with all the news you aren’t getting from your mom’s TV network. I’m buying copies and giving them away to friends!

Interesting articles - his grouping of the “cheap-labor right” really makes a lot of sense.

I just heard a fascinating talk by Catherine Austin Fitts, about how large companies have giant contracts in the very federal institutions that are investigating their criminal behavior! Perhaps not so surprisingly, their malfeasance goes unpunished and for the most part undetected.

Example: 56 billion dollars is “missing” from Iraq. How do you suppose it “went missing?” I think we have a pretty good idea. But why isn’t the government on this? 56 billion buys a lot of debt… or say Iraq War expenses.

So, instead of just screaming and yelling (which no doubt the citizens/taxpayers are entitled to do!) Catherine Austin Fitts and others have set up Solari.

Of all the initiatives, I like the July 4th Kick Off of the Solari Circles Campaign, in which everyone simply changes banks- from the large multinationals (Bank of America, Citibank) to locally-run banks, like a credit union.

They buy unclaimed baggage from the airline hubs and sell it. There is some really insane stuff here!

1. Call 1-877-BELLHOP (235-5467) to order your Virtual Bellhop service
2. VirtualBellhop then prepares a quote, either one-way, multiple destinations or round-trip
3. Items to be transported are picked up at the traveler’s residence, business or other agreed upon point and flown as airfreight, separate from the airplane the traveler uses. The baggage is then sent by ground courier directly to the hotel or other designated location, and precedes the arriving guest.

JWhich is a simple tool that unambiguously identifies which Java class in your classpath will be loaded. Depending on the complexity of your classpath, it’s not always clear which class will be loaded first by the Java class loader. JWhich displays the absolute pathname of the class file loaded first by the Java class loader.

The publisher of The Gypsy Lounge.

It’s pretty good- the backgrounds are photographs with pencils over them. The story is a little deconstructionist, but the dialog is awesome.

I believe this is the personal site of Jasen Lex, the author of The Gypsy Lounge.

An incredible graphic novel about how the Nazis won World War Two - by allying with ancient Norse gods, who turn the Earth into a giant death factory.

It has the kind of dramatic epic action that we expect from modern comics, but also has a lot of philosophical themes, such as the nature of faith.
