Sigh - end of the staycation.

I did some things here and there, but by in large I got to spend some quality time with CV jr.

Now I have to head back to work on Monday and see what heat I'll face.

Good times.

The Declaration of Interest statement that was originally published with the papers:
  • Failed to disclose that at least two panelists who authored the review worked as consultants for, and were directly paid by, Monsanto for their work on the paper;
  • Failed to disclose that at least one Monsanto employee extensively edited the manuscript and was adamant about retaining inflammatory language critical of the IARC assessment — against some of the authors’ wishes; the disclosure falsely stated that no Monsanto employee reviewed the manuscript.

More CIA Democrats - more reasons to not vote for the Democratic Party in the 2018 US Mid-Term Elections.

http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2018/09/21/ciad-s21.html

As the WSWS has warned, the 2018 election campaign marks a new stage in the growing influence of the military-intelligence apparatus in American life. The Democratic Party is not a lesser evil, compared to Trump and the Republicans. If Trump represents the danger of authoritarian rule based on appeals to racism, anti-immigrant bigotry, and police violence, the Democrats are paving the way to a regime in which all political dissent will be branded the product of “Russian meddling” and anyone to the left of the Democratic Party will be censored and suppressed.

Pretty impressive feat for a bank - a market cap of close to a trillion dollars, and still firing people.

A great crapitalist two-fer - yay! https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/layoffs-at-jpmorgan-hit-highest-level-since-2015/ar-AA2aAOHR Wi...
