Spokesperson for British Prime Minister Theresa May condemns Donald Trump's anti-Muslim tweets from yesterday, so of course Trump fires back.
After those incendiary videos were retweeted by Trump yesterday, this was the response from the office of the British Prime Minister: *Within hours of the anti-Muslim films going up, the Prime Minister’s official spokesman tried to distance Number 10 from Mr Trump’s posts, saying: “It is wrong for the President to have done this.”* That of course inspired this tweet from Trump: .@Theresa_May, don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom.

Engineering Catastrophe
Ulrich Beck was a German sociologist of risk who studied how catastrophic hazards are structurally encoded into our modern industrial and military infrastructures. Beck noted that we are able to reflect upon our socially-engineered catastrophic hazards, but too often unable to prevent their unfolding.

However, liquid sodium ignites wh... more »

In theory, if one airplane detects an enemy, it could pass on that data to friendly ships and aircraft—and through Cooperative Engagement Ability, even potentially allow those friendlies to shoot at that target from far away.

*Would you bet your paycheck on a weather forecast?* *UN climate forecasts are consistently high … consistently wrong … and used to drive policy* Dr. Tim Ball and Tom Harris Dr. Thomas Sowell, Senior Fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution, summarized the problem the world faces with climate change policy: “Would you bet your paycheck on the weather forecast for tomorrow? If not, then why should this country bet billions on global warming predictions that have even less foundation?” Sowell is right to be skeptical.

Computer Glitch Gives All AA Pilots Leave Over Christmas Week
I believe this should be filed under a) oops and b) Operations cockup 'An error in American Airlines' flight assignment app has resulted in all of American Airlines' pilots being assigned leave over the Christmas holiday week.

Factory-Like Schools Are the Child Labor Crisis of Today

Money, It Turns Out, Is a Practical Art
What money established a long time ago is the market demand for a common medium of exchange. what made it particularly attractive was that money is also consumed, first as a physical store of value and later as a way to pay for interest. We no longer use it as a store of value, but interest payment has steadily declined because the pool of electronic debt instruments has steadily increased over time much faster than our need to create new money. Crypto has produced a secure currency that is technically better than our historic dispensation simply because it is impossible to m... more »
Richard Dawkins defended "mild pedophilia" in an interview with the Times magazine back in 2013.
In the end, he remained an apologist for pedophilia. Because he was a surviving victim, he rationalized his way past the memories through social communion with fellow victims. This hardly makes any part of it defensible. It also informs us how victims actually tacitly join in the support circle for those who perpetrate. All of which provides cover for the totality which is completely outrageous. The solution for this disease is summary castration. Our bodies produce sexual hormones which drive our mental apparatus to change in terms of our behavior. One of those available... more »
