Eagles Have Landed...
Traditionally, the Mandan and Hidatsa used to go eagle-feather trapping out in what is presentday western Dakota. This was an all-male activity, and usually involved a period of 1-3 day fasting. Then an annointed male would slumber, and the dream he had was supposed to indicate whether eagle trapping would be good, and where to dig the pit. The pit was dug, the man hid inside, and the top was covered with sticks and shrubs. Then a dead rabbit (or equivalent) was put atop the sticks, and the man would wait ever so patiently. The idea was to get the eagle to swoop down, and once it grabbed the dead rabbit, the man would spring from the trap, grab the eagle by the talons, and pluck a few feathers. After this, the eagle was released (from that point on very weary of dead rabbits anywhere in the Badlands). Kind of cool. I know Mongolians today still train eagles to hunt for them. It's all quite interesting. Good to see this impressive bird is doing so well, enough so that they could pull it off the Endangered Species list.

Archaic Survey on the High Plains
It's probable that AI and Pepe are off doing research and writing during their summer hours, yes? JJ is, naturally, researching Italia and impala herds. I think AA is making trips up and down the coast of the Pac-NW (at least the last I heard). Here's a couple pics of mft doing a bit of archaeological survey and cultural resource inventory (see Section 106 of Public Law 102-575) on the high Plains.
That shiny or satin sheen stuff you see in the middle photo is either petrified wood or Knife River Flint. The last time it was touched was likely by the AmerIndian who created it many, many, many years ago.
Equally important: great steaks in the evening, especially when out doing the survey in cattle country. All the better with icy-cold beer, too.
That's all. Enjoy the pics.

From the University of Bologna's website: On June 30th, 1908, something exploded 8 km above the Stony Tunguska river. About 2150 square kilometres of Siberian taiga were devastated and 80 millions trees were overthrown. Up to now, it is not clear whether the great explosion was due to a comet or an asteroid or something else. We are searching for an answer.

Another Monster to Die, and Pepe Again Turns His Eye...
A point of this article has to do with the U.S.'s policy towards helping others throughout the world, and then fulfilling that promise. It's difficult, though, especially in a Republican Democracy: cabinets change, as do administrations. Politician A is friends with International Group B, and head-way is made, but Politician A will soon be usurped in elections... and where does that leave International Group B?
See excerpt: Halabja's residents feel particularly abandoned by the U.S. government, which frequently points to the gassing to justify the invasion of Iraq. "When Bremmer and Powell came to visit us in 2003, they promised us they would do whatever we needed," Faraj says. "They talked to us enough to fulfill their responsibility, but afterward they don't care about us."
Whether a Democrat or Republican is in the White House, we, the United States, CANNOT abandon our Kurdish allies in northern Iraq.

The distinction of being the last man standing
Anti-war sentiment among Republican poll respondents has suddenly increased with 38 percent of Republicans now saying they oppose the war.
(...)
Fifty-four percent of Americans do not believe U.S. action in Iraq is morally justified.
(...)
But there are some other cracks starting to show in the Republican wall of support -- most dramatically Monday when Republican Sen. Dick Lugar rose to speak in the Senate.
"I speak to my fellow senators when I say that the president is not the only American leader who will have to make adjustments to his or her thinking," Lugar said.
Lugar's assessment: "In my judgment, the costs and risk of continuing down the current path outweigh the potential benefits that might be achieved."

Hitchens...
This is kind of a puff-piece regarding Hitchens, but still entertaining.
Hitchens is Hunter S. Thompson cut with Gore Vidal, has broken America – as Vanity Fair columnist and a pop-up TV pundit – without even chipping his minor public school vowels. Some believe he is the one contemporary journalist who will still be read in 50 years’ time, the worthiest claimant to the title heir to Orwell... Hitchens is never far below boiling point. He is an evangelical secularist, an atheist warlord. Religion, he writes, is “violent, irrational, intolerant, allied to racism and tribalism and bigotry, invested in ignorance and hostile to free inquiry, contemptuous of women and coercive toward children”.
Hitchens, don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel.

Pepe's world explained
This is why the Prophet said: "When a man calls his wife to fulfill his needs, she must go to him, even if she is busy with the oven." .... It has shown that the twisted nature of women stems from their very creation. This is how Allah wanted woman to be. Therefore, the husband must adapt himself to her and be patient with her. He should not giver her too many things to do, or things that she is incapable of doing. He should not make her do anything that is contrary to her nature, and to the way she was created by Allah. In addition, he should turn a blind eye to her mistakes, he should tolerate her slips and errors, and put up with all the silly ignorant things she might say, because this constitutes part of the nature of her creation. In addition, women have surging emotions, which in some cases, might overpower their minds. The weakness with which women were created is the secret behind their attractiveness and appeal to their husbands.

Sir Rushdie the Infidel
"The Organisation to Commemorate Martyrs of the Muslim World, a fringe hardline group, offered a reward of $150,000 (£75,000) to any successful assassin [who killed Rushdie]."
And here's a quote from a friend of mine who commented on this latest Rushdie fatwa re-issue (personal e-mail correspondence): "The Pakistani Parliament passes a resolution to be unwitting ironic brutes of the highest rank. Britain considers re-colonizing Pakistan in order to confer the honor of knighthood on the whole population for their contribution to hilarity."
I thought it went above and beyond what the Onion was capable of.

Sermon on the Eisenhower Interstate System...
The H.R. Church has been observing Pepe's and AA's driving habits, and they are disgusted.
Note how the Vatican uses the word "primitive," that is, someone who Sins. Yet this word "primitive" would be deployed by Chris Hitchens when he's referring to "mammals" who, in fact, believe in God. It's going to be a hell of a mess for future generations to untangle.
Here are the "New" 10 Commandments For the Road:
1. You shall not kill.
2. The road shall be for you a means of communion between people and not of mortal harm.
3. Courtesy, uprightness and prudence will help you deal with unforeseen events.
4. Be charitable and help your neighbor in need, especially victims of accidents.
5. Cars shall not be for you an expression of power and domination, and an occasion of sin.
6. Charitably convince the young and not so young not to drive when they are not in a fitting condition to do so.
7. Support the families of accident victims.
8. Bring guilty motorists and their victims together, at the appropriate time, so that they can undergo the liberating experience of forgiveness.
9. On the road, protect the more vulnerable party.
10. Feel responsible toward others.

pissing into your grandmother’s fish tank and beating you at chess
Gentlemen (and JJ):
I've been unable to keep tabs on every post for the last couple weeks, but I don't think this article/interview with Hitchens has made it on the blogger board. There are some interesting points. Yet like Dawkins, Hitchens lacks a bit in empathy when it comes to understanding why people, throughout history, embraced religion in many forms.
Like the rest of us on this board, I'm very disturbed (putting it mildly) with the Osama bin Ladens and David Koresh's of the world. Yet there are so many other religious people that are some of the most humble I know. And I've always enjoyed chatting with the Catholic Church Shock-Troops, the SJs.
Throughout history, there's been a danger in going too far one way or the other: persecuting the religious, or the religious persecuting the infidel. That's all I have on the matter for now. Enjoy.

This is a good article. H.L. Mencken describes a similar setting around his Baltimore childhood home, where "inspiring debauchery" took place whenever he and his "gang" (rather, a gathering) of kids made it out to what seemed like the edge of civilization. See the first volume of his autobiography, I'm uncertain what chapter. H.L. Mencken, "Happy Days: 1880-1892."

Of the NYT and trinidadian terror
Q. Could you offer some insights on how The Times decided to play the story about the alleged J.F.K. terror plot? It was noticeably different than the way the other leading national papers played it; your placement (Metro) and coverage have been more skeptical. I'm particularly curious about why it was not considered a national story, but rather, a local one. Thanks.
-- Barbara, Manhattan
A. Here's the basic thinking on the J.F.K. story: In the years since 9/11, there have been quite a few interrupted terrorist plots. It now seems possible to exercise some judgment about their gravity. Not all plots are the same. In this case, law enforcement officials said that J.F.K. was never in immediate danger. The plotters had yet to lay out plans. They had no financing. Nor did they have any explosives. It is with all that in mind, that the editors in charge this weekend did not put this story on the front page.
In truth, the decision was widely debated even within this newsroom. At the front page meeting this morning, we took an informal poll and a few editors thought the story should have been more prominently played. Some argued it should have been fronted, regardless of the lameness of the plot, simply because it was what everyone was talking about.

Unlike Nixon, President Bush is less an overreaching Machiavelli than an epic blunderer surrounded by Machiavellis. He lacks the crucial element of acute self-awareness that gave Nixon his tragic depth. Nixon came from nothing, loathed himself and was all too keenly aware when he was up to dirty tricks. Mr. Bush has a charmed biography, is full of himself and is far too blinded by self-righteousness to even fleetingly recognize the havoc he’s inflicted at home and abroad.

AA, have you been hearing this daily drumbeat to the effect that Kakà would be headed to Real Madrid? I discounted this every time I heard it, but why would anyone believe it? They suck now (and have always been assholes).
Ralph Peters is Spot-On
and the implications have nothing to do with a Große Koalition clusterfuck a la AA.
Deep Second Thoughts, from David
Dear Galaxy, From Becks
dear-john.jpgDear Galaxy:
This is a very difficult letter to write.
I know that you have spent the past five months making plans for our future together. You have arranged your life around me, and to tell the truth, I’m flattered. But you have to admit, you always knew that this moment might come.
When we met, I was on the rebound. My last girlfriend, the love of my life, had stomped on my heart. I have never felt so low. And so I genuinely appreciated the attention. Plus I loved all of the presents and money you gave me, too! They made me feel special again. And they guaranteed that I could continue to afford the lifestyle to which I’d become accustomed, with, y’know, private jets and $14,000 watches and houses on multiple continents and everything.
Also, when I was just a dump-ee, guys like Tom and Katie and Jennifer and Mark didn’t want to hang out with me. And Fabio Capello wouldn’t even give me the time of day. But with you…well, everyone could see that I was wanted, which made them desire my company. You have no idea how much I appreciate your making me popular again.
But Galaxy, I think you’ve always known that you were the pursuer in this relationship. I don’t want to sound like a cad, but you’ve always loved and needed me more than I loved and needed you. And now that my last girlfriend has said she wants to patch things up… Well, I’m sorry. In the immortal words of Woody Allen, “The heart wants what it wants.” (Okay, yeah, so he was shagging his step-daughter at the time, but still. It applies.)
But know that I’ll still be available for the occasional quickie when she doesn’t need me, okay? Oh, and one more thing. This is a very delicate subject, but… Do you think you could keep the money spigot open and flowing freely? Because…well…she doesn’t have the means to fork over any cash, and…um…to be honest, I need it.
And try to understand: It’s not you. It’s me.
Love[no] Respect[no] Affection[no]Sincerely,
David
