Hillary: “Donald is Trying to Trick You!” Hill No!

Here’s another eblast from the Hillary Clinton campaign to yours truly:

Donald Trump is preparing to pivot from this Republican primary to the general election -- and in order to make himself palatable to voters outside the Republican base, he’s preparing to undergo an extreme image makeover.

You’re Almost Out of Time to Read the Income Tax Act Before Filing Deadline: CTF

OTTAWA, ON: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) is reminding Canadians that with only about two days left to the April 30 midnight tax filing deadline, it may already be too late to try and read the federal Income Tax Act. That’s because it’s 3,060 pages long – that’s 1,065,588 words – and would take the average reader more than 59 hours to read (not that many would want to).

OTTAWA, ON: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) today offered Bombardier its congratulations on landing a major order for its CSeries planes from Delta Air Lines, which could ultimately be worth up to $5.6 billion.

Flexible Greenhouse Accounting

The greenhouse regulators approve burning trees and plant trash in power stations because that recycles the life-supporting natural gases - water vapour and carbon dioxide.

Cruz sets ‘major announcement’ for 4 p.m.; looks like it’s Fiorina time.

Yesterday, we discussed rumors that Ted Cruz was vetting Carly Fiorina for the VP slot. Allegedly, he was going to announce his running mate early, in order to drum up some positive press, generate a little momentum, and make people forget about his then-impending East Coast drubbing.

Rumours of God’s Death greatly exaggerated

People who posit that “God is dead” in online ramblings never stop trying to crawl under the skin of everyday Christians. They bewail the times, the climes and the culture.

VIDEO: My appearance on Fox News calling for Cruz and Kasich to accept the inevitable

Every time I say something like this, people say I "endorsed Donald Trump." To this day I have never "endorsed" anybody, but I do know how to recognize reality when I see it. And after last night's five-state sweep by Donald Trump, it's very clear what's inevitable.

Heh heh heh. Trump tells Bernie he’s being treated badly by Dems, should run as an Independent.

Bernie Sanders is being beaten. He's losing in both the delegate count and the vote, but it's not his fault. He's "running as a Democrat" and he's being treated horribly by the Democrat party. At every turn, the DNC has done its best to game the system and rig the election against the poor old socialist coot who has dared challenge the coronation of Hillary Clinton.

Trump may have won every county that voted Tuesday

I suppose a #NeverTrumper can comfort himself with the notion that no one expected the five mid-Atlantic states that voted last night to be kind to the Cruz/Kasich alliance. But did anyone expect this?

Torches and Pitchforks

No, this is not an article suggesting that we storm the castle of government, armed with torches and pitchforks, demanding redress, although many would say it is about time. That mob shown in the photo represents the 60% of Democrats demanding or embracing communism (Politico). Spare me the usual substitute cliché like socialist, progressive, liberal or the left. It is merely lipstick on a pig.

The Martyr Who Immolated Himself

The dark pages of history have recorded the selfless sacrifice of millions of faceless and often nameless heroes buried in native and foreign lands, quickly forgotten by the collective memory of their brethren whom they protected and saved so that they could have a better life, a brighter tomorrow, a happier future.

Cellphone-sized device quickly detects the Ebola virus

The worst of the recent Ebola epidemic is over, but the threat of future outbreaks lingers. Monitoring the virus requires laboratories with trained personnel, which limits how rapidly tests can be done. Now scientists report in ACS' journal Analytical Chemistry a handheld instrument that detects Ebola quickly and could be used in remote locations.

Toward dissolvable electronics for implants and sensors

Tiny electronic sensors and devices that can be implanted in the body and then dissolve almost without a trace are getting closer to reality. Scientists have tested several biodegradable materials, including DNA, proteins and metals, for making transient electronics. Now one team, reporting in the journal ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, has taken another step toward this goal. They created a dissolvable device component out of egg proteins, magnesium and tungsten.
