The Costa Concordia disaster spawns something new
I'm sure readers recall the grounding, refloating and salvage of the cruise liner *Costa Concordia* a few years ago. It was one of the most complex and difficult marine salvage jobs in history, and success was far from a foregone conclusion. Whilst the ship is no more, the technologies developed and used to salvage her wreck are now being applied in a new and innovative way. Scottish marine salvage group Ardent is adapting the tanks it used to refloat the Costa Concordia, the cruise ship wrecked off the Italian coast in 2012, to decommission North Sea oil platforms. *Costa Con... more »
Introducing Israel's Very Own AK-47: The Galil Assault Rifle
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * Better than an UZI? The 1967 Six Day War provided many military lessons for the young state of Israel. One of many lessons was that the Israeli Army’s FN FAL battle rifles were too heavy and unwieldy. Israel needed a new assault rifle, and as a result, developed the Galil. Largely based on the Soviet AK-47, the Galil served as the service rifle of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) for nearly three decades. In the wake of the 1967 war, Israel decided it needed a new assault rifle. The standard issue rifle of the Israeli Army, the Belgian FN FAL, was a ... more »
How Hitler Fell: The Battle of Berlin Was the End of Nazi Germany
*Warfare History Network* *Security, Europe* The fall of Berlin signaled the end of Nazi Germany and its reign of terror in occupied Europe. It began with what a German colonel called “a dull, continuous roar of thunder from the east.” The Soviet bombardment was so immense in Berlin’s eastern suburbs, houses shook, pictures fell from walls, and telephones rang. Berlin civilians heard the rumbling, saw the shaking buildings, and knew the hour had come. On ration queues, women and girls listened “in dread to the distant sounds of the front,” and asked each other if the Americans w... more »
David Hume, As a Free Market Economist
An engraving of Hume from The History of England (1st volume) In 1752, David Hume published his book the *Political Discourses*, which is a collection of essays on a subject that was in his time called political economy and is today known as economics. The ideas that he presents in these essays are broadly similar to the economic theory that Adam Smith describes in his *The Wealth of Nations*, published in 1776. Hume has exercised heavy influence on Smith’s economic thinking. There are numerous references, both explicit and implicit, to Hume in virtually all of Smith’s writings. De... more »

My experience at the German Bundestag's Environment Committee in a pre-COP24 discussion
Blog topic: general science, global warming, politics, weather & climate Last week I had the opportunity to talk in front of the Environment committee of the German Bundestag. It was quite an interesting experience, and frankly, something I would have considered unlikely before receiving the invitation. It was in fact the first time a climate "skeptic" like myself appeared behind those doors in many years. As I understand, the committee was used to inviting Prof. Schellnhuber, formerly the director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. However, as he recently retir... more »

The importation of pharmaceuticals and medicines into the UK - Project Fear
The fact that I can't find any detail on the statistics behind the delays to importing pharmaceuticals and medicines into the UK is interesting. Unless I have proof, I suspect that we are being lied to. I found this on Wikipedia: 'The pharmaceutical industry in the United Kingdom directly employs around 73,000 people and in 2007 contributed £8.4 billion to the UK's GDP and invested a total of £3.9 billion in research and development. In 2007 exports of pharmaceutical products from the UK totalled £14.6 billion, creating a trade surplus in pharmaceutical products of £4.3 billion.' ...more »
The Narco Mata
The question that the United States Government asked was, "Who threw the hand grenades at the US Consulate in Guadalajara, Mexico?" It's a fair question. The official response from the cartel was a narco mata - a sign. It's not twitter, but it's more like twitter than a lot of other types of communication. Narco matas are a species of one-way communication from a cartel or from an organization and they consider them official. Sometimes they are written in the blood of a particular enemy so that the DNA will stand as witness that it's genuine. Sometimes there is one or more severed ... more »

Designer Jiro Horikoshi maximized the Zero’s performance by reducing airframe weight to an unprecedented degree by cutting armor protection and employing an “extra super” duralumin alloy.

Trump May Be Sly And Manipulative, But He's Still, In His Own Words, "Dumb As A Rock" And "Lazy"
Remember last year when Trump challenged Rex Tillerson to an IQ duel? At the time, Tillerson, still Secretary of State, let slip the well-known fact that Trump is-- literally-- "a moron." Trump took offense, said he'd like to compare their IQs, and eventually fired Tillerson and replaced him with a less intelligent and more servile man, Mike Pompeo. Trump, likely the lowest IQ individual to ever occupy the White House, is still offended by Tillerson.
