Don't tell me, I'm keen to guess ... Tomme de Montagne?

Very droll on the Cleese shtick (not to be confused with cheese stick), Exetaz, and Tomme de Montagne is correct, or at least one of six, though you may have read that in a previous thread, I think it came up ... let me search ... yes here it is, in the 2008-08-20 - Reader Tips, in which at some point Charles MacDonald said that he had his heart set on some Tomme de Savoie, which is really a fascinating cheese in, um, its own way.

Anyway, for the record, my current six favourite cheeses, in roughly tasting order, are: Tomme de Montagne, Drumloch, Appenzeller, Shropshire Blue, Montgomery Cheddar, and Colston Basset Stilton. Oh, oh, I just noticed that two of my six favourite cheeses are English, and two are Scottish. Perhaps I should seek professional help ;-)

Update at 02:00: I just realized that of my next six favourite cheeses: Dubliner, Smoked Gruyere, Caerphilly, Appelby Cheshire, Lancashire, and Munster, two are English, one Welsh, and one Irish. This means that fully two-thirds of my dozen favourite cheeses are from those isles. Man, I tell ya, the hoity-toity cheese aristocrats would blow a gasket if they knew. What, no Brie, no Camembert? Are you a philistine? Well, yes, actually, I am. Heh, I love it. Anyone for some Cheez Whiz on a Ritz Biscuit? Mmm, mmm, good ;-)

Tasty, but deadly. The leading cause of human conflict. Clogs arteries, and ravages the bowel. Gateway to wine sipping, then brandy sipping, then the inevitable spiral into madness.

Clearly the root of all evil.

Aye, dp, I remember the first time I mixed Colston Basset Stilton with Churchill's Crusted Port. That spit-sauce mixed up like no other flavour I'd ever before experienced. I was immediately hooked, and I have been ever since. And stay away from sex, I tell ya ~ it leads to dancing! Madness, I say, madness!

By the way, since we're here anyway, did you know that tiromancy, from the Greek "turo" = "cheese" and "manteia" = "mode of divination", means: a form of divination (the art or act of foretelling future events or revealing occult knowledge by means of augury or an alleged supernatural agency) that seeks to know the future by examining how curds form during cheesemaking and by studying mouldy cheese? What a species!

Did Maurice Strong not muse about intentionally bringing on a worldwide economic collapse ?

[Lehman Brothers Close Ties to Gore, Hansen and Carbon Trading

Al Gore’s carbon trading business GIM was banked with Lehman Bros. It will be interesting to see how this will play in the future but I suspect that this increases the risk of participating in Carbon trading. Merrill Lynch, was also deeply involved in this business.

Last year Lehman Brothers released a long and highly publicized report about climate change in which they preached about decarbonization, trying to make their investors keep getting high profits from the Kyoto carbon trade scheme and the support of huge public subventions. All that, of course, with the applause of the usual choir of politicians, the entire media and the Greens.

A year ago they couldn’t predict their bankruptcy but were predicting the climate 100 years ahead. Thousands of green militants have been using the Lehman report as a proof of global warming and impending chaos. Lehman Bros said it! sacred words! Its scientific advisor is James Hansen! The report is the basis for policies on climate change in Spain, Argentina and several other countries playing the progress game; it is used by economy professors playing the climatologists; by newspapers editorials, and even by a State Secretary: Lehman Bros, said it!

Lehman Brothers spoke in his report about the climate in 2100 and its economic and financial projections, about climate change costs several decades away. They dared to recommend their investors what they considered a central value of the carbon ton in 50 years from now. Their sources and support references were taken from the IPCC AR4, AR3, and so on. Really impressive.]

Don't know how many of you noticed this, but the yield on the 3-month US T-Bill fell to .02% today.

I want you to look at the number closely .02%. That is not 2%; it is 1/100 of that. In other words, if you buy a $1,000 T-Bill, in three months, you do not get back $1,020. You do not get back $1,002. You get back $1,000.20. That's right - for giving the US government $1,000 for three months, they will pay you 20 cents for the privilege. And of course, inflation over those three months is going to be at least 1%, so the spending power of the $1,000 is only going to be $990. So in effect you are losing money just to be sure that you're going to get some of your principal back.

Now that's fear and loathing! But, as I predicted some six or seven months ago, I think there's a tremendous buying opportunity coming up. I'm not going to try to catch the absolute bottom, but I think in the next few weeks, it will be a great time to invest.

"Case closed: The Rosenbergs were Soviet spies

A startling confession again proves their guilt. Now it's time for their left-wing defenders to acknowledge it.

Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed 55 years ago, on June 19, 1953. But last week, they were back in the headlines when Morton Sobell, the co-defendant in their famous espionage trial, finally admitted that he and his friend, Julius, had both been Soviet agents.

It was a stunning admission; Sobell, now 91 years old, had adamantly maintained his innocence for more than half a century. After his comments were published, even the Rosenbergs' children, Robert and Michael Meeropol, were left with little hope to hang on to -- and this week, in comments unlike any they've made previously, the brothers acknowledged having reached the difficult conclusion that their father was, indeed, a spy. "I don't have any reason to doubt Morty," Michael Meeropol told Sam Roberts of the New York Times.

With these latest events, the end has arrived for the legions of the American left wing that have argued relentlessly for more than half a century that the Rosenbergs were victims, framed by a hostile, fear-mongering U.S. government. Since the couple's trial, the left has portrayed them as martyrs for civil liberties, righteous dissenters whose chief crime was to express their constitutionally protected political beliefs. In the end, the left has argued, the two communists were put to death not for spying but for their unpopular opinions, at a time when the Truman and Eisenhower administrations were seeking to stem opposition to their anti-Soviet foreign policy during the Cold War.

To this day, this received wisdom permeates our educational system."

"Rosenberg sons acknowledge their father was a spy for Soviet Union"

NEW YORK - After years of professing their parents' innocence, the sons of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg are acknowledging that their father was a spy.

The about-face came after their father's co-defendant, Morton Sobell, admitted for the first time that he and Julius Rosenberg stole nonatomic military and industrial secrets for the Soviet Union.

The Rosenbergs were executed in 1953 for passing atomic secrets to the Soviet Union. Since then, decoded Soviet cables have appeared to confirm that Julius was a spy, but doubts have remained about Ethel's involvement.

The 91-year-old Sobell, who was convicted with the Rosenbergs on espionage charges in 1951 and released from prison in 1969, had maintained his innocence until last week, when he told The New York Times he turned over military secrets to the Soviets during the Second World War.

"I don't have any reason to doubt Morty," the Rosenbergs' son Michael Meeropol told the Times in Wednesday's editions."

Obama-Stalin wants Americans to be reprogrammed:

From a recent speech, care of ABC news:

Obama -"The one thing that I want to insist on is that, as I travel around the country, the American people are a decent people. Now they get confused sometimes. You know, they listen to the wrong talk radio shows or watch the wrong TV networks, um, but they're, they're basically decent, they're basically sound."

Melanie Phillips, The Long March To The White House

Thanks in large measure to the work of bloggers such as Trevor Loudon and Cliff Kincaid of Accuracy in Media, information has been around for the past year suggesting that Barack Obama is an integral part of a web of radical activists, whose roots go back to a clandestine Communist Party network in Hawaii centering upon his erstwhile mentor the late black poet Frank Marshall Davis, an agent of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA).

Unlike Communists elsewhere, the CPUSA fused the twin ideologies of class and race oppression...

Hockey Mom's against Sarah Palin:

charles macdonald - I'd hesitate to define Obama as a member of a communist take-over of the US and world. I don't think that he's working for any sect; he's working for himself.

He is, himself, a far left socialist. However, this is not a socialism based in the working class (ie, communism) but in a two-class infrastructure, where the elite 'intellectual class' rule over the working class peasants.

Obama considers himself superior to others; he's a messiah; he can do anything and everything. The working class peasants are 'meant to be ruled', to be controlled, to be guided, to be censored if their thoughts are 'misguided'.

He'll use any means whatsoever to attain his personal agenda of power. So, I think that Obama, as a sociopathic personality, a narcissistic egoist, is working for himself. The very large intellectual class support him because they 'think' within this two-class socialist infrastructure.

About a month ago, I was asked to deliver a short presentation to the Canadian Army on tactical counterinsurgency lessons learned over the past years in Iraq.

After a long night, I produced ten observations that reflect enduring lessons from Iraq that would resonate with military audiences...

(Via Contentions) David Frum, Obama's Hesitation Blues

Crisis does not bring out the best in Barack Obama. His instinct is to equivocate and temporize. We saw that tendency in August, when the Russians invaded Georgia and Obama had to work through a gamut of soft-line stances before arriving at the same position that John McCain had announced immediately...

As we shift from crisis management to the tough work of devising a longer-term response to the mortgage debacle, we’ll be reminded of another big fact about Obama. He is a classic big-city welfare-state politician. He has lots of ideas about how to share wealth created by others—but very few about how to ensure that wealth is created in the first place...

"The worst Liberal campaign ever

Back in 1984, John Turner ran what has long been considered the worst campaign ever by a federal Liberal leader.

But in the current Canadian election, Stéphane Dion is well on his way to wresting that dubious distinction from Turner."

"A number of senior Liberals tell me privately they feel Dion is an embarrassment – not an asset – for the party and that a thrashing on voting day, which they fully expect, is what the Liberals need before they can regroup and rebuild.

And if the polls are right, a humbling defeat is what Dion and the Liberals are facing."

Good letter today in the Citizen re the hidden costs of the Greenshift tax: http://tinyurl.com/4q6fxu .

RE media frenzy on Gerry Ritz. I don't mind this kind of thing. Although it's silly of the media to focus on trivialities, and few people will change their vote based on something so superficial. Despite the faux outrage, many will see Ritz as simply human. What is more of a concern to me is the media's failure to challenge Jack Layton's remarks about food inspection. According to Jack, it is not a company's responsibility for food safety, but rather the government's. This is ludicrous. Food safety has to be at the centre of any food company's operation -- if it is not, they will soon be out of business. In this case, the government's primary role is to enact legislation, monitor compliance and put extra resources into issues around imported foods. Jack's comments are typical of why the NDP policies are misguided. For them, the government is the answer to all social ills.

maz2- The Tranna Red Star is solidly NDP. They smell blood and can't help but put down the Libs.

As a matter of record, I found Ritz'z quip to be quite witty and humourous. This is a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. Of course being a right-wing knuckle dragger, I am quite insensitive and impervious to the slights that are experienced by others of a more liberal nature.

Edward T. Oakes, S.J., T.S. Eliot on Religion without Humanism

...I caught sight, in the table of contents, of a contribution from T.S. Eliot called “Religion Without Humanism.”

Never having heard of the essay before, I took a look. It is only eight pages long but no less provocative for that. Without denying humanism’s need for religion, Eliot unsettled that thesis by asserting its converse too: “I stated [in an earlier essay] my belief that humanism is in the end futile without religion. . . . Having called attention to what I believe to be [that] danger, I am bound to call attention to the danger of the other extreme: the danger, a very real one, of religion without humanism.”

...Oddly, though, given his own renowned appreciation for the poets, Eliot takes his argument, not toward an apology for Christian humanism, but toward an appreciation of the benefits for Christianity of an aggressively anti-Christian secular mind...

ET:
I think Obama is -- to use Pamela Geller's term -- a plant, a Manchurian candidate. Or to use a phrase from a friend the other day, a "stalking horse". Remember his political career began in the home of unreconstructed domestic terrorist -- and now "distinguished professor"-- William Ayers and his terrorist-murderer wife. And in the meantime, MSM TV is researching an arena in Palin's home town!

I think he's a Marxist, a communist, possibly America's Trudeau.
Communism was never a working class phenomenon. It originated with middle and upper-middle class elites pretending to advocate for this constituency, many of whom were the idle, and perhaps resentful, sons of rich businessmen and industrialists.

I'm guessing he's euphoric about the financial meltdown and will push the predictable meme that capitalism is the villain.

Speaking of trivialities, that's all the Liberals have to dwell on.

The Ritz statements were made in a conference, not for the public and in supposed confidence among supposed allies. Someone was a Judas in the group and that person has to be exposed. Add to that this happened last month, why is it being brought out now other than to help the Liberals? Looks like the work of a Mole and they better get the scab and be certain he/she is never allowed in again.

As reported vote swapping is legal.
How one can corrupt this action?

ET, MND: Certainly Obama shares many Communist beliefs and objectives. I agree, ET, that we can't define him as a Communist because he lacks any solid core of individual identity. Once again we confront the Empty Suit and his Zelig-like, protean nature.

The only thing heating up faster than the Arctic is the international competition by its surrounding nations to solidify their claims and to secure control of the area’s valuable resources. At stake is more than 90 percent of the Earth’s unclaimed seabed, which is believed to contain significant amounts of oil, gas, and precious minerals. It has been nearly a century since the first explorers reached the North Pole in 1909, but due to drastic climate change and the renewed promise of wealth, the region is finally stepping to the forefront of international affairs. The United States must develop a comprehensive strategy to protect its national security, environmental, and economic interests in the Arctic or face being frozen out by the other Arctic nations...

Well, perhaps a bunch of Conservatives could join in the fray, with no intention of following through. That way, the person who is willing to "give up their vote" -- will have no idea if reciprocation is happening or not. I believe that the risk is that you must trust someone else to cast a vote that will net your party the per-vote $$ allocation from government. In the long run you risk reducing financial support for your party.

me no dhimmi - Let me clarify. I don't mean that communism is an ideology developed by the working class. They are far too pragmatic for such nonsense; most workers are conservative.

I mean that communism, which is most certainly an ideology developed by the intellectual sophists, is focused on defining all people as 'working class'. The fact that this definition emerges from a bunch of protected academics is irrelevant. The society is to be based around one class: the working class.

Socialism, on the other hand, functions within a two-class structure. There is a very clear understanding of an elite set of Rulers, the intellectual sophists, who rule over the Workers. Socialism is not about elevating the worker class; it isn't about setting up a society for their protection and needs.

Socialism - ie, Liberal and NDP and Bloc - is all about a TWO-CLASS infrastructure. The task of this political system is not to merge all peoples into one class (communism) but to keep the two classes separate and distinct. That's what your taxes are for...to keep the two classes separate. To protect the Upper Class from the Lower Class.

So - you taxes will go to 'the poor' to keep them passive and reasonably well fed. Welfare increases, supplements, food banks.

You don't want prisons or severe sentences because that will upset the Lower Hordes - basketball courts and separate schools are a better idea.

You keep immigrants isolated and passive by keeping them in Identity Blocs. You fund them to remain in these blocs and never move into or against your Intellectual Havens. You support their minority life-style..because it keeps them separate and away from you.

This is the Liberal focus. I'll say that I think that the NDP is less class-based and more open to collaboration and integration than the Liberals. The Liberal political ideology is pure Two-Class, with the Rulers and the Ruled..and the agenda is to keep the Ruled reasonably quiet..and separate.

The voter for the Liberal is voting for Who Will Keep Me Secure from the Lower Class.

The Conservatives operate within a one-class society, but not a worker class. A middle class. This is based around the idea of the individual as responsible, as able to make choices, as entrepreneurial, as working in small and medium businesses etc.

The Liberals reject all of the above; they do not want individualism which might threaten their security; they are groupies; they don't want dissent or differences in their Ruler Group. Or in the Ruled Group.

Canadians, whose economy is embedded within the protection of the USA and its military protection, are therefore, socialized as Liberals. Not conservatives. This is gradually changing, primarily because the West was never part of this set up of being the suburbs of the USA.

They allowed naked short selling — which simply means that you can sell stock without ever owning it. They eliminated last year the uptick rule that has protected investors for 70 years. Speculators pounded the shares of even good companies into the ground.

The Chairman of the SEC serves at the appointment of the President and has betrayed the public’s trust. If I were President today, I would fire him."

Naked shorts, now has them filling their shorts.

I think this gayyss people in canda
are dress woman act like woman and marry with men while they have walk paryed for show they are proud doing this

theier marriage is fraud

this is like one of those men doing fraud
marriage

live together no problems

but doing marriage ceremoney and ask for child adoption and then have pray for encourage peopel they are right is nasty and is fraud

history has meaning for use of certain word together

the word marriage is not what they recall it

the word and use of registration is fraud

and encourge thier sex in the city is too much

---------

plus pshycologically they are sick lost real whole

we can blame in wrong communication and parenthood there

we shouldnot angree of les and gay they need help really they are sick people

culture in canada must be change
the blame is politic for too much freesom in Canada not them

"the blame is politic for too much freesom in Canada "

When Bush said "They hate our freedoms", lefties laughed.

I think this Mallik issue has legs. I just sent an email to the PMO demanding all funding be
withdrawn to the CBC as the CBC is taxpayer funded and is therefore the de facto official organ of the Government of Canada.
The Canadian Government has long held the tradition that it will not interfere in the affairs of state of a democraticlly ruled foreign country. By the CBC publishing this tripe, it gives the USA the impression that what Mallick said is the official opinion of Canadians.
I suggest to those of you who care, to email the PMO at PM@PM.gc.ca

Tim in Vermont,

new/////, is an excellent resident study into the 'moderate' Muslim mind. Good for Kate to continue to allow him to post, if you can call it that.

Bigots, racists, misogynist supremacists (read major inferiority complex), inculcated from birth into their 1400 year-old "uncreated and unmitigated" heretical Christian, literally scraped together pagan manual, written by the illiterate, diseased Mo, aka allah.

Hey man - no need to slime pagans here. We're good people.

It is me, or are the 'new' trolls running around these parts more regularly these that days?

There has been a leadership coup in the Liberal Party.
The Mao Stlong/Rae/Power Corp/Desmarais/Chretien faction has ousted Citoyen Dion.

Rae is now the de facto leader of the Liberal Party.
Citoyen Dion has been pushed off his donkey.

I humbly offer one of my favorites, The Clifford Brown Ensemble, featuring Zoot Sims, Pacific Jazz PJLP-3, 1954. (with valve trombone) 2 cuts, Dahoud and Joy Spring.

I just burned this out of my late father's LP's and found this YouTube (no video, just a very clean audio).

Very good example of West Coast Cool.

Thanks, Porter, it's in the queue.
