If you live in Florida you will be able to grow both ginger and turmeric as perennials. Even in zone 8b where I live turmeric will grow as a perennial without winter protection. It dies down in winter after the first frost, but comes back in the spring. . I had it for years but am not...

This is one one of the very few times I have seen fiat currencies correctly characterized. Although there is much more to it than included in the article. At least serious errors are avoided. The contrast with currencies issued by sovereign nations and bitcoin are instructive and real.

None of us have all the information the FBI has, but I would suspect that it only seems to you that the crimes -- money laundering, lying to the FBI etc, -- have nothing to do with Russian infiltration of U.S. Social Media in an attempt to influence the election. For example lets say there is...

Oh it isn't the establishment Republicans that are the cheering team for the Kremlin, it's the Tea Party Folks in the House! They are convinced that something very sinister took place on that tarmac, and it has something to do with Soros, the missing thirty thousand emails from Hillary's...

You are going to get along splendidly with the boys in the Kremlin. You guys think alike!

The old BIASED Court.

The new House Judiciary Committee approved Supreme Court.. These Justices have been certified as unbiased by the House Committee.

Ha ha ha. According to the findings of House Judicial Committee there is no one in government capable of carrying on an investigation let alone making an unbiased decision whether or not a law has been broken. Clearly the Entire Justice Department and the FBI is biased and everyone working in...

There is only one party that is truly interested in helping the Republican voter base, and ironically it is the Democrats.

I guess you're right. So far as any one knows there is no actual video tape of the rape of the 14 year-old. Just allegations and a couple dozen corroborating witnesses who have stated that Roy Moore was attracted to under age girls, Moores own account of dating them, and that lie about being...

Getting out or staying in are both superior to trying to hedge. There is a purpose for hedging. It is to preserve a gain when you can't get out, at a cost of course. (This seldom applies to traders). In the main, hedging is a tool encouraged by brokers so as to take more money from their...

That's true. I shouldn't have said appointed as in appointed by the legislatures. I should have said elected by the legislators in each state. I always chuckled when George Bush was running around claiming we were bringing democracy to Iraq. I thought why would advocate that before you'd...

My understanding is that it was thru her indirect control of DNC money, apparently she was personally responsible for raising much of it. And Wasserman-Schultz seemed to make decisions as though she was personally working directly for Ms Clinton, even though she wasn't officially. And a major...

A cogent observation. We should understand the bizarre episode of the past election and first 11 months of the Trump Presidency as a warning of our terrible vulnerability and the fragile nature of our American Republic. We have gone from being one the most stable and respected Western nations...

I have traveled fairly widely and there is little doubt in my mind that the per capita incidence of poverty is higher in the U.S. than in any of the other advanced nations we compare ourselves to. There are two other areas where the U.S. lags the other advanced nations: Uniform access to...

In response to someone else, DTB2 posted this informative chart. That's correct. And thank you for posting it. The last I heard the antarctic region is part of the "Globe".

"Effects" [of anthropomorphic CO2 emissions] don't last for hundreds of years. that's a major mistake assumed in early IPCC reports! In fact the effect of adding additional CO2 diminishes with CO2 concentration and approaches a limit near 600 ppm, i.e., 1200 ppm has virtually the same effect...
