A Tunnel in a Greenhouse

• Views: 5,591

Remember those high-tech greenhouses Israeli settlers built in Gaza, that provided employment for Palestinians and produced an amazing assortment of fruits and vegetables in the midst of barren desert? The ones that rich Westerners (like Bill Gates) bought and presented to the Palestinian Authority when Israel withdrew from Gaza?

After the looting and burning, here’s how they’re now being used.

In this picture released by Israeli Defence Forces (IDF), an Israeli soldier stands guard next to a tunnel during an operation near Rafah, southern Gaza strip, October 18, 2006. Israeli troops killed four Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and widened a four-month-old offensive by sending tanks to take up positions around the Rafah border crossing with Egypt.

Obama plugs Obamacare on Between Two Ferns
This is hilarious. You just have to watch it. Between Two Ferns with Barack Obama Obama can meta almost as good as Galafianaikis. Too many zingers to list.

Be The Pasty Computer Hacker Of Your Dreams With This Edward Snowden Action Figure
When I saw this post over at Wonkette, I thought I just had to show Charles Johnson and Gus. I just wonder if and when they'll make a Greenwald action figure. Are you a grown-ass person that still likes to play with toys and pretend you are someone else? We really wish we could stop you from doing that. But since we can't, why ...

Problematic Science Journalism: Native American Ancestry and the Solutrean Hypothesis
I need to post this since I propagated the original Der Spiegle story here. This debunks the "European" linkage headlined in the story. All of the genes are Asian / Siberian in origin. H/T to Freetoken who pointed out the shoddy reporting back then in the comments. It appears that the usual Solutrean Hypothesis / Solutrean Truther crowd at work, and underneath it all ...

What Photo Should I Enter In Adorama’s YBS2013?
Earlier today, Lawhawk noted that Adorama was having a contest where you're to enter your best image from last year. Since the voting is Facebook "Likes" based, my taste in photography has a snowballs chance at the devil's prom ;) But on the other hand, as it has been noted, you can not win if you do not play the game. So after sorting ...

Court Okays Gold Hunt on 150-Year-Old Shipwreck - JCK
An amazing historic fortune to be had Ship Model, note the old pre propeller side wheel propulsion design. It carried one of the largest cargoes of gold ever lost at sea, so much so that it was nicknamed the "Ship of Gold." And now Odyssey Marine Exploration has been given court approval to recover what it can from the SS Central America. In 1857, ...

Reflections on America’s Fall, From CPAC 2014
Alas, our next generation of conservative leaders are not chanting, "Amer-i-ca! Amer-i-ca!" They are, instead, chanting, "F**k O-bama! F**k O-bama!" And I hang my head. So, now, children at the hotel, parents, staff, tourists - both foreign and domestic - and every other conceivable variety of guest who happens to be staying at the Gaylord National hotel during CPAC 2014 has a skewed, ...

Russ Campbell’s Blog: Why Does Our Government Tax Every Glass of Milk We Drink?
The Con­fer­ence Board of Canada has is­sued a re­port ti­tled Re­form­ing Dairy Sup­ply Man­age­ment: The Case for Growth, which pretty much con­demns Canada's sys­tem of sup­ply man­age­ment of dairy prod­ucts. Au­thors, Michael Grant, Richard Barichello, Mark Liew, and Vi­jay Gill, say their re­port "makes the case for growth and sug­gests an eq­ui­table way to wind down sup­ply man­age­ment of dairy prod­ucts. ..."

Weedley-Weedley-Wee -- Specifically, the small fret guitar-playing technique that musicians have a tendency to display while in pursuit of a cross between a waitress and a hoover vacuum... This, of course, from his book.
