Kabalat Shabbat

Welcoming the Shabbat in the kinder. The big-headed boy is Geffen. First grandson. He is watching his enemy across the table, that biting bully in blue shirt. 

Light sails

The discovery of the enormous light sail tumbling across the solar system, the oumuamua object, led me to the Planetary Society's light sail project and then to the IKARUS project of JAXA, the Japanese space agency. They have demonstrated the feasibility of the concept and created a technology that seems to me quite advanced, opening up the possibility of managing the sail by controlling its reflectivity, its angle to the sun, and even the way to generate much electricity. Like a sailboat, it can move against the direction the wind, meaning that it can be used to go everywhere. 

Replacing...and Ruling Americans

The refugees are not only replacing "them" American European folks, they are starting to rule them. A clitoris-less Somali Muslim woman, married to her own brother, was elected to the Congress by Minnesota. No friend of Israel at all. Muslims are a big success in America. Not so much in Somalia. 

First Credible Contact with an Alien Space Civilization

The space object we call ‘Oumuamua entered our solar system a year ago, turned and quickly left again. It was represented as a solid cigarlike object but it was not. Now we know it was a thin sheet of 0.3 mm thickness and 16000 sq meter surface. A Harvard paper proposed that it was a light sail from an alien ship. It is the first plausible encounter. 

Replacing them

Bloomberg, a business magazine, is ecstatic with the Democratic Party's probable victory and control of the American Congress. Demography is destiny, they say, and American demography votes for the Democrats.  Obama was not a success, Hillary was corrupt, so there must something I don't understand here, because the stock exchange is … rising.

P.S.: Remember the lead pollution of Flint's water? Flint operators forgot to add buffer to the water or may be it was stolen, but facts are irrelevant, whole America is convinced that Governor Schuette tried to poison the Flint Blacks and that Obama and Hillary saved their lives. The system works: Democrat Gretchen Whitmer today defeats Republican Bill Schuette. 

The Rebbe explains the mystery of kangurus in Noah's Ark

Yeshive Bochers (Jewish divinity students) love to formulate difficult questions to their teachers. For example: How did an Australian marsupial like the kanguru travel to Mount Ararat and take his reserved seat in the Ark? Flying Quantas? Rabbi, how was that?

Rabbi Moshe Leib the Cohen Halberstadt has the answer.  It goes like that: You know that there is a process called evolution in nature. Yes, Darwinian evolution. There are "initial", antediluvian animals that were in the Ark and survived the flood. There are other animals that were not in the Ark but evolved from the survivors. Now, is the kanguru an antediluvian, initial, root animal, or it evolved after the flood? The distinction is unimportant, the fact is that Australia is full of jumping kangurus, so it definitely must have been one or the other.

BTW, the kanguru meat is not kosher. 

Where is the gold?

Venezuela demanded from the Bank of England to repatriate 14 tons golf of its reserves worth more than $500 million. 

Comments:

(Anon 1): Bet the Bank of England no longer has it. Gold delivery obligations on the fraudulent COMEX have been shunted over to London for months now via an instrument called Exchange for Physical (EFP). You can read Harvey Organ or the GATA website to learn more. Less than five tons of physical gold on the COMEX now. Not enough registered (deliverable) gold to meet demand.

(Anon 2): Good luck with that. Germany tried to get their gold back from the U.S. a few years back, they were told to wait. Then the U.S. set up a deal to show Germany the gold that was actually borrowed from JPM.The growing concern about the gold sitting under Manhattan has become a touchy subject ever since Germany announced earlier this year plans to repatriate its gold from Fed vaults. Some have said the move signifies German mistrust of the Fed. Others argue the Bundesbank is just one of many central banks keen on rebalancing its own gold reserves.

So where does JP Morgan fit in? Months ago ZeroHedge drudged up the fact that JPM-owned 1 Chase Manhattan Plaza has, on its fifth sub-basement, the world's largest bank vault.

You know who else has five sub-basements? The New York Fed. You know what building is across the street from 1 Chase Manhattan Plaza? You guessed it:

Yup. JPM's vault, the largest in the world, is possibly inches away from the Fed's gold vault. Across the street, on the same level underground

J: Years ago I was tempted to speculate in gold but I suspected that COMEX is fake. It looks that I was not the only one.
