Ron Clutz, Science Matters - 11 hours ago
In reporting on Covid19 pandemic, governments have provided information intended to frighten the public into compliance with orders constraining freedom of movement and activity. Statistics of interest to the public have been hidden; for example only cumulative numbers are presented to show ever increasing cases and deaths. For example, the above map of the Canadian […]

TNA Video, rss - 11 hours ago
[image: alex-newman-food-security-at-risk-cattleman-warns] VIDEO - In this video with The New American magazine's Alex Newman, cattle rancher Shad Sullivan--whose video on the culling of livestock during coronavirus went viral and was seen by many millions--explains that food security is still at risk. From the government's attacks on private property, to the monopolization of the industry, to globalist efforts to subvert U.S. sovereignty, the danger is enormous. Sullivan also speaks about some of the major obstacles facing independent producers and the threat of the New World Order...

*Stephen Silver* *Technology, * If Google bought Roku, it would put Google directly in competition with Apple in the streaming media player place. In one of those odd acquisition rumors that's enough to move a company's stock, Roku's stock moved upward last week on word — likely not backed by anything solid — that Google parent company Alphabet was looking to purchase the streaming media device maker.

On the RTINGS rankings of top overall TVs, the CX series ranks third overall — behind two other LG OLED TVs, the E9 and C9 — and #1 overall among 2020 models.

Buying Carbon Offsets For Climate Emissions Is Not Realistic Without Understanding Their Risk
News Staff, Science 2.0 blogs - 9 hours ago
When called on to explain why he lives in a gigantic mansion with its resulting environmental cost, Academy Award winner, Nobel laureate, and U.S. Vice-President Al Gore said he bought carbon offsets from a company he owned that sold carbon offsets. Paying himself to emit greenhouse gases sounded ridiculous but a new analysis shows that buying offsets - paying a company to plant trees - can be just plain risky. Forests absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, but if they are managed by a group that doesn't believe in logging or clearing brush. If a forest goes bust in a fire all...

In an Oval Office interview with Axios on Friday, President Trump suggested he's had second thoughts about his decision to recognize Juan Guaidó as the legitimate leader of Venezuela and said he is open to meeting with dictator Nicolás Maduro. Driving the news: Asked whether he would meet with Maduro, Trump said, "I would maybe think about that. ... Maduro would like to meet. And I'm never opposed to meetings — you know, rarely opposed to meetings. "I always say, you lose very little with meetings. But at this moment, I've turned them down."

Is There Life Inside Pluto? Its Hot Birth May Have Created An Internal Ocean
The Conversation, Science 2.0 blogs - 10 hours ago
Pluto, along with many other dwarf planets in the outer solar system, is often thought of as dark, icy and barren – with a surface temperature of just −230°C. But now a new study, published in *Nature Geoscience*, suggests that the body has had a warm interior ever since it formed, and may still have a liquid, internal ocean under its icy crust. It could mean that other sizable icy dwarf planets may have had early internal oceans too, with some possibly persisting today. This is exciting, as where there’s warm water, there could be life. read more
Deadly New Sanctions On Syria
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 10 hours ago
On May 20, President Trump signed into law the 2020 National Defense Authorization Act. Embedded in this bill, a housekeeping bill of sorts where yearly “defense” appropriations and priorities are spelled out, was the basic text of the 2019 Caesar Syrian Civilian Protection Act. Perhaps they were buried here because they didn’t have bipartisan support, but there is certainly no reason to think that is the case. The war on Syria has had bipartisan support for the duration. Perhaps they were just embarrassed by the title, as the bill is named after a presentation that was a fra...
The Kerguelen Plateau And Formation Of Continents
News Staff, Science 2.0 blogs - 10 hours ago
How did the continents form? It's a complex question, and no firm answers will be coming soon, but the oceanic plateau of the Kerguelen Islands may provide part of the answer, according to a new paper. From a geological point of view, it is the Earth's outermost layer that distinguishes the continents from the oceans: oceanic crust, which is relatively thin, is mainly made up of basalts, resulting from the melting of the Earth's underlying mantle, whereas continental crust, which is thicker and of granitic composition, is derived from magmas that evolved at depth before solidifying...

Our HBCUs Need Additional Congressional Support
cmaadmin, Diverse - 12 hours ago
As we approach June 30th, a date that marks the end of the annual or biennial fiscal years for forty-six of the nation’s fifty states, governors and state legislatures are being forced to make some extremely tough decisions in order to balance their budgets. If past precedent serves as any guide, we can readily anticipate that higher education will be forced to endure an outsized portion of those cuts and, as a consequence, our largely tuition-dependent, public HBCUs will, inevitably, suffer an even greater hardship from those state funding cuts than better-resourced flagship instit...

Obstacle Stand in the Way of Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's Moves Towards Democracy in Ethiopia
Yohannes Gedamu, The National Interest - 11 hours ago
*Yohannes Gedamu* *Politics, Ethiopia* Apart from the challenge of democratising an authoritarian state, it had to deal with ethnic violence and conflicts. And massive internal displacement of citizens. It’s two years since a surprise leadership change took place in Ethiopia. Introducing himself with a historic speech to the nation, the new Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed preached democracy as the only future for the country of more than 110 million. The initial reforms were breathtaking. So much so that imagining democracy became justifiable. But Abiy’s administration inherited an ex...

A world-famous cop looks at police accountability and racism

Frank Serpico was awarded the NYPD's Medal of Honor for his work in exposing internal corruption and malfeasance in the department. He was, however, vilified by many fellow officers for being willing to break the "code of silence" by which cops protected themselves and their colleagues. Resentment against him from some officers continues to this day. The book " Serpico" by Peter Maas, and the 1973 movie based on it starring Al Pacino, depicted his struggle. Some years ago, A&E filmed an episode of its "Biography" series about Serpico's life and work, and what it cost him. If ...

It's official; Democrats hate women
trinko, Conversations about the obvious - 13 hours ago
Democrats are cheering a Supreme Court ruling that if taken to it's logical conclusion says that biological men can compete against women in sports. The court reasoned that if a man is attracted to a man and a woman is attracted to a man saying that men attracted to men are treated differently is solely because of their sex. But then using that reasoning of a man wants to compete in women's sports and a woman wants to compete in women's sports banning a man would be solely because of his sex and hence illegal. It's clear that men are generally more athletic than women. Anyone who d...
