Mosul Campaign Day 215 May 19 2017
The Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) continued to push east and south towards the Tigris River and the Old City district respectively. The Rawsahnneighborhood was freed by the Golden Division, while the northern section of Tamuz 17 was brought under control. The problem with the latter is that the ISF claimed to have liberated all of Tamuz 17 twice before. The Iraqis are on the verge of taking Mosul, yet still exaggerate their gains. The victory narrative pushed by Baghdad since 2014 seems to require positive news be reported everyday both real and imagined. Iraqi President Fuad Masum ... more »

*Michael Peck* *Security, * The Laffey supported the Bikini atomic tests in 1946, and went on to fire its guns at Communist shore targets in Korea. There is a reason why the destroyer USS* Laffey* was nicknamed “The Ship that Would Not Die.” It sounds like a compliment that any sailor would envy—until you realize how the *Laffey* earned it. In the space of a few minutes, the *Laffey* was hit by six kamikazes and four bombs. And survived. Until that morning in 1945, the *Laffey* had seemed a reasonably lucky ship.

Welcome to North Korean Missiles 101
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Asia* The ultimate primer. North Korea’s ballistic missile program dates back to 1965, when leader Kim Il-sung decided that, were war to break out, North Korea would need a way to hit U.S. bases in Japan. Thus began a fifty-two-year quest for long-range missiles which culminated in the May 12 launch of a Hwasong-12 intermediate-range ballistic missile. The Hwasong is just the latest in a long line of weapons designed to put even the most distant of Pyongyang’s enemies at risk. North Korea’s missile program didn’t appear out of nowhere, but is the res... more »

Physicist Richard Feynman Discredits Greenhouse Gas Theory
What i find interesting is his observation that two systems explain the existing temperature regime and that they are mutually exclusive and cannot both be right. More important than either i suspect is that the earth's crustal rocks are not cold at all or particularly hot. In fact deeper heat is slowly leaking through the surface to sustain the present temperature regime which is thus tightly linked to water as the rock is wet. After that the atmosphere is an exchange mechanism with a temperature controlled pot and an open lid allowing surplus heat to escape. Mo... more »

The Poet: Rod McKuen, "A Cat Named Sloopy"
*"A Cat Named Sloopy"* "For awhile the only earth that Sloopy knew was in her sandbox. Two rooms were her domain. Every night she'd sit in the window among the avocado plants waiting for me to come home, my arms full of canned liver and love. We'd talk into the night then, contented, but missing something. She the earth she never knew, me the hills I ran while growing bent. Sloopy should have been a cowboy's cat, with prairies to run, not linoleum, and real-live catnip mice, no one to depend on but herself. I never told her, but in my mind I was a midnight cowboy even then. R... more »

Obama beat McCain there and then Romney narrowly bested Obama 50-49%. Last year, the district swung back towards the Democrats as Hillary beat Trump 49.3% to 47.0%.
