In a Mother’s Milk, Nutrients, and a Message, Too – NYTimes.com

The interesting implication has to do with the cavalier way we partition progeny from parents and the parent-child nexus from 'the world'.

The more we learn about these subtle proceedings the less this  partitioning makes sense.

And then there is the matter of Richard Dawkins' talk about extended phenotypes.

If we continue dismantling the significance of phenotypes and melding parents and progeny into seamless concatenations, what is going on will eventually swim into view.

BBC News – ‘Disabled’ bodybuilder Peter Beddoe jailed for fraud

Here is an example of a human being having a series of conscious episodes generating a sense of entitlement flying in the face of common sense.

How could anyone imagine that a claim for disability support would not be compromised by winning a body-building contest?

The answer can only be that there are no anyones.  There can only be concatenating conscious episodes imagining themselves  as distinct individuals with separately evolving souls.

This is how Mr Beddoe's was able to rationalize a claim involving an infirmity that catalysed an increasingly robust  life.

Why Scotiabank is cutting jobs while earning billions: Don Pittis – Business – CBC News

Here is what is going on: the  wealthy in the world's nations are attempting to save the world from environmental disaster.

They are doing this by organizing economic globalization and then cashing in by leveraging the resulting economic crises and dependencies into 'prudent' calls for further degradation of  ordinary well-being.

Quite clever really; especially when it is not immediately apparent whether one should applaud or decry what is going on.
