More information on the National Press Club "racialist" conference O'Reilly was defending:

[Link: www.splcenter.org...]

Note this part:

Also on the panel is Marcus Epstein, executive director of The American Cause and Team America PAC, which gives money to anti-immigration candidates and is chaired by Bay Buchanan. Epstein also writes for Vdare. Like Brimelow, he is fond of Jared Taylor and American Renaissance and has attended the journal’s biannual conferences. In 2006, Epstein invited Taylor to a group he had just founded, The Robert A. Taft Club, to speak on the issue of “Race and Conservatism.” In February 2006, Epstein’s group also hosted two members of a racist and anti-immigrant Belgian party, Vlaams Belang. In 2004, an earlier incarnation of the Vlaams Belang, Vlaams Blok, was banned on the grounds that it incited racial hatred.

And hominins into better hominins. But humans occupy a unique niche---it's a behavioral niche more than a matter of climate and diet. Still, in small ways we see the process at work on us.

Large noses serve to preserve body heat and hydration. They're pointless (yes, it's a pun) in warm, moist climates. Guess who has long, protuberant schnozzes and who has squat, wide nostrils?

Tibetans and their cousins in Nepal, the Sherpas, do better at high altitude than the rest of us, with the partial exception of some Amerinds from the Altiplano. The Amerind high-altitude people have had less time to evolve an adaptation to thin air, and they aren't as far along in the process as the Tibetans.

There are pearl diver communities. Training aside, they can hold their breath longer than the rest of us. A lot longer.

Chinese can more easily digest starch. Cattle-herding peoples from Africa, Asia, and Europe are lactose tolerant for the most part, and most adults can drink cow's milk without difficulty. Other African populations, many Amerinds, and most Chinese, don't tolerate lactose well as adults.

If it weren't for the central fact that our biological niche is primarily that of social tool users with a strong penchant for exogamy, we'd be evolving our separate ways under the influence of such diverse evolutionary pressures. Instead, all these variations tend to get folded back into the main body of humanity, where they become part of the repertoire of the whole species.

Excellent comment. The different races have indeed been folded back into each other several times, after first evolving in semi-isolation, probably about 200,000 -20,000 years ago, in that range.

Another interesting evolutionary detail of modern humans is that populations that lived in areas where alcohol was not discovered or distilled until fairly recently either because of cold climate that was inhospitable to fermentable starches, or because of inappropriate local fauna-- in particular, Scandinavia, Arctic Russia, and the New World -- did not evolve the ability to "hold their liquor" the way that other populations did which discovered alcohol earlier. (Basically, one needs about 5,000 years of drunken teenagers killing themselves to rid the "easily soused" gene from the population through "Darwin Award"-style evolution.) As a result, Russians, northern Scandinavians and Native Americans to this day are prone to alcoholism to a far greater degree than other populations. Its really not their fault -- it is genetic.

Uh oh. Roger Clemens has himself a big legal problem:

Report: Clemens' DNA in syringes

WASHINGTON -- Tests have linked Roger Clemens' DNA to blood in syringes that his former personal trainer says he used to inject the pitcher with performance-enhancing drugs, according to a report.

Citing two unidentified sources familiar with the investigation, The Washington Post reported Tuesday that the DNA results are preliminary and subject to verification tests. The newspaper said Clemens voluntarily gave a DNA sample to federal authorities, according to the sources, and it still remains to be determined whether the syringes ever contained steroids or human growth hormone.

The test results could prove important to the investigation into whether Clemens lied under oath to Congress last year when he denied using steroids or HGH.

Prosecutors have asked a federal grand jury in Washington to decide whether to indict the seven-time Cy Young Award winner. Brian McNamee has told federal agents, baseball investigator George Mitchell and a House of Representatives committee that he injected Clemens more than a dozen times with steroids and HGH from 1998-2001.

Clemens' lawyer, Rusty Hardin, told the Post that the DNA testing "won't matter at all."

"It will still be evidence fabricated by McNamee," Hardin was quoted as saying. "I would be dumbfounded if any responsible person ever found this to be reliable or credible evidence in any way."

So far everything McNamee has said has been proven out. and Everything Clemens has said has been a pile of crap.

Roger may get in some innings with the prison team.

I just don't see what the Dhimicrats see in Pelosi. She has been an unmitigated failure. She holds up the first stimulus bill by ranting on the day of the vote how the bill was all the fault of Republicans, none of the legislation she espouses is enacted in the Senate, she divides her caucus, she has bug eyes, etc

As much as I do not like Reid, he was at least able to advance an agenda. Pelosi is just a farce of a politician.

Report: Retested Bonds sample positive

A urine sample that Barry Bonds submitted as part of Major League Baseball's anonymous testing program in 2003 has come back positive for PEDs, according to a New York Times report.

Bonds provided samples that did not test positive under that program, but the samples were re-examined by federal authorities after they were seized in a 2004 raid, The Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

Citing a person who has reviewed the evidence in the case, The Times reported last week that authorities detected anabolic steroids in urine samples linked to Bonds that they gathered in their investigation. It remains unclear, the newspaper said, whether the '03 urine sample and the samples seized in the feds' raid in '04 are the same.

Bonds testified to a federal grand jury investigating the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative in 2003 that he used "the cream" and "the clear" but did not know they were performance-enhancing drugs. During that testimony, Bonds was asked if he ever took steroids, and he answered no.

The government alleges that Bonds lied under oath. His perjury trial is scheduled to begin March 2 in San Francisco.

Henry Aaron is still the home run champ in my book.

Saying - "white Christian male power structure" is just plain creepy.
Sure- the libs like to target "Christians" - usually idiots like Rosie O'Donnell who have zero credibility. but seriously - The O man is heading into dangerous territory with that rhetoric.

What's sad is thinking about the segment of his audience that agrees.

TFK, I do not think that is what Zombie was implying or suggesting at all. There is genetic evidence to show that Alcohol tolerance is evolutionary. Land based populations that were exposed to alcohol the most recent in historical time, whether due to environment, temperature (yeast cultivation), or vegetation availability, are all factors as well.

Henry Aaron is still the home run champ in my book.

Aaron was a hell of a player, especially for his era. Willie Mays is the greatest player of all time, though, in my (and many other peoples) opinions.

I used to worship Bonds, and even in his last few seasons when all the steroid details were coming out, I was still in awe when I watched him swing. It's really a shame what he did...he was such an amazing player even before the steroids and could have certainly achieved 600 home runs clean.

No, Native Americans "lost" because they were vastly outnumbered, and the invaders had a huge technological advantage (i.e. guns). It had nothing to do with alcohol per se. The Apache, man for man, were probably better fighters, better horsemen, etc.

If 1 million Apache had invaded medieval Europe, bringing guns and horses, The French would all be speaking Athabaskan now.

re: #213 Sharmuta

The europeans also brought a lot of diseases that the natice population had never been exposed to.

That went both ways. The Europeans caught syphilis from (raping the) native women. When they brought it back to Europe, it wiped out millions at first, before a less lethal strain evolved (better for the syphilis virus because it could then be spread more easily).

There were no horses in North America until the Spanish brought them over. Put the native Americans up against a bunch of Tatars and Cossacks and we'll see who are the better horsemen.

re: #213 Sharmuta
