A UK summit to mark the 75th anniversary of D-Day on Wednesday included US, Canadian and European leaders, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

He argues that European states are US satellites and that Washington isn’t used to powers like China and Russia, independent poles who require “respect.” Sanchez reminds us that the former Soviet Union lost 27 million people and Chin... more »

"Write us, as we are, were, and shall be, not your assumptions"
Writing at Mad Genius Club, reflecting on Memorial Day, Jonathan LaForce (whom I'm pleased to call my friend) examined the way writers (and, by extension, other entertainment content creators) portray military service personnel and veterans. Like myself, he finds many such portrayals to be lacking. Here's an excerpt. I grew up listening to the stories of the men who went ashore at Omaha and Utah. I wondered how they could summon the very wherewithal to commit such acts of heroism. I had those, the stories of those American boys drafted in Korea; my first Cub Scout Master was a ... more »

Glock 46: The Glock Gun That Could Change Everything
*Charlie Gao* *Security, * You can't say Glock isn't innovative now. Glock GmbH is criticized by some for being one of the least innovative companies in the gun industry. The basic design of a Glock pistol has changed very little from the original Generation 1 Glock: the majority of changes through the generations are slight changes to the trigger layout and the addition of rails and other ergonomic features. This has led some to say that Glock cannot innovate. However, the Glock 46 stands as a stark counterpoint to those who say so. Utilizing a rotating barrel system and a rede... more »

The Poet: Lynn Ungar, “Hawks”
*“Hawks”* “Surely, you too have longed for this- to pour yourself out on the rising circles of the air to ride, unthinking, on the flesh of emptiness. Can you claim, in your civilized life, that you have never leaned toward the headlong dive, the snap of bones, the chance to be so terrible, so free from evil, beyond choice? The air that they are riding is the same breath as your own. How could you not remember? That same swift stillness binds your cells in balance, rushes through the pulsing circles of your blood. Each breath proclaims it- the flash of feathers, the chance ... more »
