Water for Capstadt

The Capetown, South Africa, is facing water supply difficulties. The reservoirs are empty and each person is allocated 50 liters per day.  The climate change has caused this beautiful city (and others) mis-positioned with regards to water supply. Technology can save them but few have it. South Africans are thinking seriously on towing icebergs from the Antarctic: it is feasible in a well organized peaceful world, it is a precarious in the chaotic, violent, desperate world to come.

The Worst Nightmare of the Antisemites, Realized: Jews rule the World.

Every time I visit an anti-Semitic site or read some article, I realize that the authors are terrified of the possibility that those pushy, aggressive, ambitious, intelligent, satanic etc. Jews are conspiring in the dark and achieving effective world domination. Well, guys, I have news for you: We did it! Donald Trump is not only surrounded by Jews and related to Jews but mentally he is a total Jew or the closest a person can get to being Jewish while being a six foot tall blond German. Observe, the first thing he did was to bring in his Jewish son-in-law into the inner sacra sanctorum of the American government, she sat he Orthodox daughter in the presiding chair in cabinet meetings. First things first and he moved the American Embassy to Jerusalem and declared that America will nuke anyone fucking with the Jews. Just as he was reading Netaniyahu's wish list.

But wait, after publicly fulfilling the non-existing Sages of Zion's wet dreams, what has changed in the world? Nothing. The Europeans keep fragmenting as before, the Korean pyromaniac keeps building atomic bombs, America keeps rejecting immigrants, China is positioning itself for a war against America and so. No one gives a fuck about Jerusalem. The ultimate conclusion is that we Jews and our trifling conspiracies import little or nothing and in fact, nothing changes as "we" rule the world. Basically we Jews are a noisy but utterly unimportant people in the this small patch of rocky desert with an unbearable climate. Some clever people has already realized this, but the alternative, that NOBODY rules the world, that is it utter chaos, is unthinkable, and dangerous. Nietzsche wrote that God is dead and no one is replacing him, and went crazy.

Ruling the world and being marginal, irrelevant? A humbling insight, is it. 

Germany on the move

I am reading The Guns of August about WWI and I can't understand what motivated the European nations in the cusp of their prosperity to fight each other to death. Much posturing and bayonet sharpening, and horses and honor, but why the enthusiasm? These days America is abandoning the NATO and the Europeans are preparing to defend themselves. I have not clear who is against whom. The initiative comes from Germany, that is rearming. Moreover, is recruiting its satellites into the Bundeswehr.

"So far, the low-profile and ad hoc approach of the Framework Nations Concept has worked to its advantage; few people in Europe have objected to the integration of Dutch or Romanian units into German divisions, partly because they may not have noticed. Whether there will be political repercussions should more nations sign up to the initiative is less clear."

 Some Germans must be thinking "The mustachioed psychopath is dead and his histrionics half forgotten - this time we shall succeed."

As a Jew, I hope there is nothing to worry about German power, although - who knows?

Cheated and Angry

I am leaving too much money on the table. One of the most difficult projects was the Center Bar (pic) commissioned by one Sharon Hazan, who never paid me. Last week I went to the place for another bestially difficult project, and saw that the Center Bar was full of customers and having great success. The kitchen is in the small shop to the left while the tables are on a round platform (a former gold fish pool) in the center of the atrium. The place, Dizengoff Center, was built by Platto Sharon and the Pilz brothers in 1974 or 5. The building is in bad condition, and I had to find ways to supply water, drainage, kitchen grease interceptor, air conditioning and exhaust hoods and ducts and air filter and evacuation to the atmosphere. All the drawings had to be approved by the local infrastructure engineer, an anorectic girl by the name of Melinda. Once, she asked me to leave a meeting because I could not take off my eyes from her as she was fighting off some lettuce leaves in front of her on the table. Poor girl.

Hazan! Prepare the cheque, I am not forgetting you.

Greece Domesticated

What is domestication if not enslavement? Greece has graduated from her second, or third? fiscal program imposed on her by Germany and the date of the start for the repayment of her hundred billion debt has been moved ten years ahead, to 2033. Greece promised to follow the strict terms of a 2% budget surplus that has maintained her in misery and recession during these last ten years. 

Koko the Talking Gorilla - Dead at 46

The world is shocked as the news of Koko's demise spread by the internet. Applying her predictive AI (Animal Intelligence) powers, Koko broke the bank at Montecarlo and invested her chips in ... chips, becoming the main shareholder of INTEL and AMD companies. The shadowy ownerת, known as "K", had initiated the technology sharing secret "understanding" (conspiracy?) between Intel and AMD, creating the state of fake competition beloved by American economists. Without the wisdom of Koko the Talking Gorilla, I am now expecting the merger of these two "rivals".

Koko z"l had been my intimate friend ("Honi soit que mal-y pense"). She had decorated Obama's Oval Office, and liked to impersonate famous rock stars. She suffered from chronic obesity and back pain, sleeping on a mattress filled with gold coins and hundred dollar bills. She said that the touch of hard cash made her sleep better.

AMD vs Nvidia

The Taiwanese rumor mill says that Nvidia's products are not selling well. On the other hand, AMD is healthy and lifting to the moon. AMD has integrated Dvision, an Israeli group specialize in military imaging that looks the best thing around in 3D imaging.  I want 3Division or any other similar gang.
