The Library is a place of contemplation, expanding one’s horizons with new topics, concepts, ideas and ideals. There are no obnoxious pop-ups, pop-unders, paid membership, sneaky advertising links or spamware. We don’t brand the ebooks with our logos or charge you to access what you can already access on hundreds of other sites online – or if you borrow it from the physical library or a friend for free. It’s about integrity, humanity, sharing knowledge and information- edifying anyone who wants to know and learn. If you want it, you will seek and find it and be led to it to a place like… well, this Library. The New World Order Library is one for a new age, a new aeon in which we find ourselves.

There’s a lot of money in poverty... As the IMF enforced Structural Adjustment, and arm-twisted governments into cutting back on public spending on health, education, the NGOs moved in. The Privatisation of Everything has also meant the NGO-isation of Everything.

Although PBOC was suddenly crowned with the title of global 'boss', insiders warned that do not be dazzled by the superficial figures and flattery.
This is a real can of worms for the pro-business Republicans to open and it looks like that is what they are going to do. I’ll drop some other links to this subject here in the next 24. Chkit out! The Coming Right-Wing Clash over the “Half That Pay No Taxes”+ A simple chart from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) showing that between March, 2011 and March, 2012, Wisconsin was the only state in the nation to have a statistically significant decline in the total number of jobs.

My Atlantic colleague Jeffrey Goldberg just scored an extensive interview with President Obama in which Obama says to Iran and Israel, "As President of the United States, I don't bluff." Goldberg's preamble is important and must-read, but the interview itself is vital and gives one a good sense of both Obama's strategic strengths and weaknesses. The decision of the White House to talk to Goldberg reflects their desire to speak to what Obama defined in the interview as "the Israeli people, and. . .the pro-Israel community in this country" less than a week before the annual Washington meeting of AIPAC , the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. This was not an interview designed to warn Iran of the consequences of proceeding down a nuclear weapons acquisition track. This read more like a combination of assurances to the American Jewish community that Obama was a serious national security hawk on Iran during an election year.

Today's picture is from Safed. This ancient city in the northern region of Israel is located on the tall Meiron Mountain. Since the sixteenth century, Safed has been considered one of Judaism's Four Holy Cities , along with Jerusalem, Hebron and Tiberias; since that time, the city has remained a center of Kabbalah, also known as Jewish mysticism.

We’re still kicking around the tires a bit, but if you’d like to help us kick those tires, the new home for emptywheel is at emptywheel.net . As I’m leaving what has been home for the last three and a half years, I wanted to, first of all, wish Kevin Gosztola and Jeff Kaye the best of luck with their new blog “The Dissenter.” You all know the great work Jeff has done, particularly on torture.

Imagine that you have a big box of sand in which you bury a tiny model of a footstool. A few seconds later, you reach into the box and pull out a full-size footstool: The sand has assembled itself into a large-scale ... Technology / Computer Sciences 17 minutes ago | not rated yet | 0 |Photo via Flickr: Chris_Samuel Long before I started writing this blog, a fresh-out-of-college environmentally minded young woman got into a heated political debate with her Republican uncle. It was 2003, the eve of the Iraq war, and gas prices had spiked dramatically . Their argument began when the young woman said she hoped that gas prices would continue to rise; it was the only way, she explained, that Americans would stop driving Hummers, start demanding more fuel-efficient cars, and begin to diminish our thirst for Mideast oil. That’s insane , said her uncle. Regular people would be really hurt if the price of gas got too high.
