ACTION

“. . . a lot of other Europeans in the wake of the Climategate scandal have started calling environmentalists there, not just “greenies,” but now “watermelons” (green on the outside, deep RED on the inside) in recognition of the fact that the chief interest in Cap and Trade has been mainly kept alive by ultra-socialist groups and communists because it practically requires nationalization of all of a nation’s enterprises; requires the all-powerful central government to control all decisions about what to produce, where to produce it, when to produce, where to market it, and how, etc., etc. ad nauseum.” Rajjpuut

‘Progressive-Elitist’ John Kerry

Fumes Over Unsophisticated Voters

According to several internet stories, one-time Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry is NOT a happy camper. According to Yahoo, Kerry would like to “elect a new people.” Complaining that Americans have “abandoned science and truth,” Kerry insists on preaching to anyone that will listen that Rush Limbaugh and Glen Beck have led us into a new era of “know-nothingness.” Kerry, you see, is bitter over the fact that Cap and Trade legislation in the senate (a bill he sponsored) never even came to a vote there over the last 17 months, much less passed into law. Kerry feels that “. . . truth and science and facts don’t weigh in. It’s all short-order, lowest common denominator, cheap-seat politics.”

Kerry, the Senate’s richest man has apparently never read this ten and a half month old story:

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article6936289.ece

Why not? Well, because the American MSM (mainstream media), that gives unrelentingly false and favorable coverage to folks like Kerry of the progressive-elite, failed to publicize the fact that even the ultra-liberal London Times (after examining the evidence released in so-called “Climategate” revelations) agrees that global warming is a hoax. That would mean that some particularly sane Americans like Rajjpuut who have long been “global-warming deniers” have actually abandoned gullibility and inanely following the crowd as far as the Europeans are concerned. By the way, here’s a list of 31,000+ other Americans (all scientists, with 9,000+ of them PhD’s who’ve also long denied global warming:

And then there’s the fact that the 2,500 year model global warming theory was based upon had dropped 500 years out of their data collection. Which 500 years? The Medieval Warm Period when temperatures got so warm that ice virtually disappeared from the Northern Hemisphere and Greenland was truly green and Leif Erikson discovered Greenland, established Viking settlements there and even discovered “Vinland,” a.k.a. Canada’s Newfoundland and even established a short-lived settlement there also. So the reason recent times looked so warm is because the global warming “scientists” (we’ll use the word ‘loosely’) while they’d dropped the Medieval Warm Period from their calculations had put extra emphasis upon the 500 year long “Little Ice Age” that killed off the Vikings in Greenland . . . with all that happening and after creating false “hockey stick graphics,” of course the figures lied and said global warming was factual. Poor Senator Kerry never read this article about all that either:

http://www.prisonplanet.com/medieval-warm-period-rediscovered.html

Not only that but Kerry, who recently got a lot of global-heat from trying to avoid Massachusetts’ taxes on his yacht, likes to complain to other tuxedo-wearing participants at $1,000-a-plate dinners somehow couldn’t connect the outrageous taxes on his yacht to the laws passed by liberal fools like himself, preferring rather to gritch about Limbaugh, Beck, the TEA Party and the stupidity of the great unwashed masses who won’t simply take his every sainted utterance as pure GOSPEL . . . the nerve of them!

Kerry, of course, discounted entirely that Cap and Trade would immediately jack up all prices in the United states by 77% (our present economy is $13 trillion thanks to the recession; adding the $10 Trillion per year cost of cap and traded according to some of its most famous proponents . . . we’d then have a $23 TRillion economy based purely upon the addition of “blue sky”; resulting in 77% inflation) . . . leaving that aside for now . . . Barack Obama, in a rare moment of actual truth-telling, told the San Francisco Chronicle his Cap and Trade policy A) “would bankrupt the coal industry” and B) would also “necessarily make the price of electricity sky-rocket.” I guess the fact that 53% of the country still voted for Obama after that revelation spoiled Senator Kerry . . . he apparently assumed silly voters not only were very, very silly, but also absolutely could NOT learn even when the obvious was staring them in the face.

Of course a frequent tux-wearer on the other side of the Atlantic Lord Lawson, former Chancellor of the Exchequer actually called Cap and Trade “a royal highway to corruption” while a lot of other Europeans in the wake of the Climategate scandal have started calling environmentalists there, not just “greenies,” but now “watermelons” (green on the outside, deep RED on the inside) in recognition of the fact that the chief interest in Cap and Trade has been mainly kept alive by ultra-socialist groups and communists because it practically requires nationalization of all of a nation’s enterprises; requires the all-powerful central government to control all decisions about what to produce, where to produce it, when to produce, where to market it, and how, etc., etc. ad nauseum.

Bjorn Lomborg, the famed “Skeptical Great Dane Environmentalist,” though he believes in global warming is an eminently practical and honest man. Lomborg has said that even if we imposed Cap and Trade, with all of its ability to straightjacket the already paralyzed world economy, it would result in barely a 1-degree difference in Global Warming by the end of this century. In response to the exaggerated alarmism of Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth,” Lomberg created a documentary called “Cool It” which urges hisfellow environmentalists to cool the rhetoric about global warming as an existential threat to the planet.

As for Senator Kerry, the truth is that progressive elites like him owe the country a huge apology. All the worst ideas still plaguing America (and a lot of others as well) right now are rooted in progressivism, all of them. Think of the worst unfunded liabilities initiated for “all the best motives” and you’ve described progressivism to a “T.” Here are some of those ideas and the president’ in power when they began:

Rajjpuut Technique for Weight Loss

Gets Another Adjustment

Rajjpuut is currently going over three studies on the effects of fructose, the ubiquitous sweetner, in the diet of countless Americans. All of the details are still NOT understood, those crazy scientists use so much scientific jargon, shame on them, that occasionally getting to the meat of their research is akin to taking a bio-chemistry class . . . but one thing is clear, if you care about your health, avoid fructose like the plague . . . literally, like the plague.

There is only one realistic plan for losing weight and it GASP! Involves good nutrition and exercise. And anybody who says anything else is blowing smoke up thy anus.

A quick word on fructose, it sounds good this word “fructose,” like perhaps it carries the natural sweetness of fruit and of course, all those natural benefits as well: WRONG , fructose seems to be natural only in this: it has a natural affinity for expanding the millions of fat cells in the human body. Avoid it. Rajjpuut after reading the research on fructose did an inventory of what he consumes and found out that the particularly-healthy grapefruit juice he imbibes contains fructose; the wonderful yogurt he eats has an even higher percentage; and the lemonade he’s commonly offered by his chess-playing friends has fructose as the #1 ingredient. Since the Ol’ Health Educator leads (by comparison to most of his less conscientious readers) a pristine and virtually Edenlike existence including nutrition beyond reproach, Hak-Koff, he cringes to think what his loyal readers, in less than blissful ignorance, have been ingesting fructose-wise.

OK, here’s the newly adjusted Rajjpuut Technique for wise, effective, nutritious meals and lasting weight loss:

1. Find a way to add exercise to your life: a good start is 30-40 minutes of walking 5-7 days a week. After 5-7 weeks consider adding greater intensity and greater duration to this aerobic ex. Some sort of muscle-building is essential (even simple pushups, situps and pullups and chinups will do the trick). As exercise becomes more intense look to do very easy stretching before and after. Two-three times a week add a brief “sprint component” to your exercise), for example: if you’re walking relatively slowly for 30 minutes a day, “sprint” by walking relatively faster or walking a bit faster but uphill for 10-20 seconds 4-5 times during your walk. Use your head on this, we’re NOT talking about pulling muscles and suffering heart attacks so LISTEN TO YOUR BODY. If over 35 or if you have any doubts, talk to a good physician. By the way, obviously if you enjoy your aerobic activity, clearly you’re more likely to keep with it; one good idea is adding variety: tennis, dancing, hiking, swimming, biking, nordic skiing, raquetball, basketball, etc. all have aerobic benefits as does downhill (alpine) skiing if you do it for at least four hours.

2. Eat a good breakfast every day. Eggs are great food, despite the FDA’s idiocy. Protein like oatmeal and other whole grains as well as the eggs and items like turkey-bacon; and lots of fruit are all good ideas. Breakfast should be your largest meal . . . re-arrange your waking and going to sleep time as necessary . . . it’s that important. One of Rajjpuut’s first-meal favorites: cold 7-ingredient cheeseless pizza; some people like to warm it up, that’s OK, too.

3. Eat 4-6 meals daily decreasing steadily in size throughout the day. Six is best, but who can do that? Five is next best.

4. Eat lots of veggies and fruit after breakfast. Light use of legumes (peas, green beans, beans, peanuts, etc.) at the second and third meal only is recommended.

5. Red meat and other flesh such as fish, fowl, and pork are great . . . just try to decrease the amount of these protein rich foods at every meal as the day wears on.

6. Eat off smaller chinaware. It's an oft-documented fact that people who eat off plates 50% smaller eat 35-40% less food.

7. Avoid all heavily refined and junk foods; almost all fried foods and things like gravies, cream- and cheese-sauces; and avoid artificial sweeteners of all kinds.

8. Salsa is great on baked potatoes (another great food that gets bad press) and lemon slices and or lemon juice make excellent salad dressings.

9. Drink a tall glass of water with lemon juice and stevia roughly one-half hour before at least two and preferably three of your meals.

10. Try to put 11-14 hours between your last meal of the night and breakfast. It’s virtually impossible to “fast” for 12 hours and NOT lose unnecessary weight over the long haul, 13-14 hours is better yet. Finishing a meal at 7:30 p.m. and beginning breakfast at 6:30 is about the least you can expect to do.

11. Chew all your food about three times as much as you’ve been used to doing, it helps the gastro-intestinal tract, but also makes you feel full quicker.

12. Visualize yourself much more healthy looking, feeling and acting; much more slender and happy.

13. Step on the scale every 1-2 weeks ( a body fat scale is a cheap and wise investment and much more helpful than a regular pounds-only scale). Judge your success mainly in how much better you feel; you look; and your body measurements including drop in overall body fat percentage.

14. Good luck!
