Choosing Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCUs)
There has been significant discussion recently regarding the uptick in HBCU enrollment. In recent years, enrollment increases across the HBCU landscape have been attributed to a variety of reasons. Some cite the political atmosphere as a reason, noting that HBCUs serve as a reprieve for students fleeing overt racism and racial microaggressions present in communities […]

Trump braces for showdown with Iran and China over oil, if he seeks to turn trade war into real war, he will lose

So apparently the 19 year-old punk who shot up that synagogue near San Diego and murdered a woman isn't a fan of Trump because of his support of Israel. He also complained in his 8chan manifesto (they *always* have a manifesto, don't they?) that conservatives aren't violent enough in their political beliefs. As if the world doesn't already have enough Cesar Sayocs and Robert Bowers in it. And Bowers inspired him, he said.

Children, young girls—some as young as 9 years old—are being bought and sold for sex in America. The average age for a young woman being sold for sex is now 13 years old.

Carrier Kings: 5 Best Fighter Planes to Fly from an Aircraft Carrier Deck
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * Let the debate begin. *The Grumman F-14 Tomcat of Top Gun fame was indeed a superb air superiority fighter. However, the Tomcat’s saw most of its action as a land-based fighter in the service of the Iranian Air Force.* Designing an airplane that can fly at high speeds lugging heavy weapons loads, and yet still takeoff and land on a short flight deck a few hundred meters long has always posed a formidable engineering challenge. Sea-based fighters typically feature folding wings for easier stowage, ruggedized landing gear and arrester equipment, an... more »

Sig Sauer's Tiny Machine Gun Won't Join the U.S. Army: Meet the Cooperhead

Things Have Changed
Six months ago, Justin Trudeau was poised to win a second majority government. But, in those six months, the political landscape has changed drastically. Jaimie Watt -- a Conservative operative -- writes: Each new provincial election brings more evidence that the wave of conservative victories across the country is turning into a tsunami. And with that, the inescapable conclusion that the Liberal brand is, if not in crisis, certainly not what it was on Election Day in October, 2015.
