Superbly narrated by British actor Nigel Gore, The Dragons of the Storm follows directly on from where The Weight of Smoke left off. Captain John Smith has been stabbed by a stingray and falls deathly ill. The old alchemist and mariner, Jonas Profit, doctors his wound, and to ease Smith’s suffering tells of the daring circumnavigation of the world by Francis Drake, 1577-1580. A masterful interweaving of all the elements that contributed to the birth of the British Empire.

Who to put the universe back together again but Sheldon, an existential detective; a logical falafelist, now a philosophical short-order cook; a paranormal detective known as The Sleeper; a bombshell of a nurse; an obsessive-compulsive waitress; a shape shifter; a whole menagerie of extra-terrestrials, all at a parking lot known as The Speed of Light Garage.

Born without hands or feet, the state saw Starfish as an anathema and demanded she be executed or incarcerated for life. Unwilling to resign his only child to such a fate, her father, Master Tinker Paul, hid her away on his man-made, floating island, safely out of the reach of the unjust government's laws. For her 11th birthday, her father presented her with mechanical limb extensions, and Starfish cautiously began exploring their island home of Paulsten.

Scotland’s official national day is St Andrew's Day, the feast day of Saint Andrew. In the Bible it is Andrew who introduces his brother Peter to Jesus as the Messiah. As well as Scotland he is also the patron saint of the likes of Russia, Greece, the Ukraine, and Barbados. It is thought that the day was first celebrated over a thousand years ago in the reign of Malcolm III (1034-1093).

A theory is a formal expression of a set of conclusions that have not been validated by the scientific method. There are basically two types of theories, one that is expressed as “theoretical” or not yet fully validated, and the other is called “pseudo-scientific” that is comprised of what are called “bold leaps” concocted by means of non sequiturs. What makes a pseudo-scientific theory problematic is the fact that it is founded upon faulty reasoning and logical fallacies. Theoretical bold leaps (pseudo-scientific) are usually arbitrary and disconnected from reality. They ...

A sobering assessment of how pragmatism fails to deliver.

Americans are constantly being told to tolerate people from different cultures. The term Islamophobia is used to stigmatize and “guilt” Americans into believing that their fears about terrorism are a latent hatred of Islamic believers. Many conservative Americans are thought to be bigoted and irrational when it comes to their attitudes about race and religion. Conservatives are thought to be prejudiced against people of other religions because their cause is that of Christ rather than Allah. Yet, many Americans have a deep suspicion of Muslims solely because of the way the 9/11 ...
