Man Made CO2 has Prevented Earth from being Struck by an Asteroid; Tipping Point Averted
The Asteroid Peril Isn’t Science Fiction (Source) Scientists believe that the elevated level of atmospheric CO2 has acted as a repellant to asteroids. Evidence provided by the experts is that we haven’t had a mass extinction event since the start of the industrial age. More funding, however, is required to continue this critical research that … Continue reading "Man Made CO2 has Prevented Earth from being Struck by an Asteroid; Tipping Point Averted"
Fracking Ban Continues to Trigger Earthquakes in So Cal; Has the State Passed a Tipping Point?
So Cal has only 10 years to lift its fracking ban before the state slips into the ocean. Other experts fear what the state may have already passed a critical tipping point, and the damage from not fracking may be irreversible. Without fracking the earthquakes are becoming more frequent and of greater magnitude. 7.1 Quake … Continue reading "Fracking Ban Continues to Trigger Earthquakes in So Cal; Has the State Passed a Tipping Point?"

Eight Weeks of Summer: Learning Conditions
This post is week 4 of 8 in the 8 Weeks of Summer Blog Challenge for educators. I'm continuing this challenge, answering the questions from the viewpoint of my old non-retired self. Here's this week's prompt: *What are optimal conditions in which to learn, for you, and for students?* For me, it's mostly a matter of opportunity and independence. Probably the biggest single thing I learned in college was how to teach myself, and I was born just in time for the biggest explosion of self-education resources in the history of the world. But that's as an adult, and the biggest advantage ... more »

Obama: Front Man for Washington’s Imperialism
[image: undefined] Clarity Press is a good publisher for authors willing to provide real information in place of the officially sanctioned controlled explanations of our time. A current example is Jeremy Kuzmarov’s assessment of Obama, Obama’s Unending Wars. The forty-fourth president comes across as a successful front man for corporate rule and Washington’s imperialism. Obama was the “drone king” whose regime bombed 7 Muslim countries, overthrew the democratic government in Hondurus, overthrew and murdered Gaddafi, tried to do the same thing to Assad in Syria, overthrew the democr... more »
TRUMP'S FOURTH OF JULY SPEECH: JUST WIN, BABY
President Trump didn't denounce "fake news" and lead chants of "Lock her up!" during his Fourth of July speech, so many of us dismissed his words as harmless, a rehash of pieties from middle-school history textbooks. David Frum did a closer reading and came away disturbed: As Trump retold the story of the Pacific War, he said this: “Nobody could beat us. Nobody could come close.” When he paid tribute to the Air Force, he said this: “As President Roosevelt said, the Nazis built a fortress around Europe, ‘but forgot to put a roof on it.’ So we crushed them all from the air.” He added:... more »
China Likely Tested Missiles That Can Kill Aircraft Carriers in the South China Sea
*James Holmes* *Security, * What does that mean for Asia? America's allies? How can Washington push back? Earlier this week China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Rocket Force most likely tested a DF-21D or DF-26 anti-ship ballistic missile—sometimes know as "carrier-killers"—in the South China Sea. Details remain sketchy, as Chinese spokesmen have remained close-mouthed about the exercise. The test came on the heels of news last May that PLA weaponeers had installed anti-ship cruise missiles and surface-to-air missiles on Fiery Cross Reef, Subi Reef, and Mischief Reef, west of... more »

*Yet another study shows school choice programs reduce crime* Schools are expected to prepare children to become good citizens. They can help achieve this goal by producing a well-educated populace and promoting strong character. But not all school systems equally contribute to the public good.

Yet another study just came out revealing the crime-reducing benefits of school choice. Researchers found that entering a charter school in North Carolina in 9th gr... more »
Selfishness is Not a Virtue
Wanderer above the Sea of Fog Eric Hoffer did not regard selfishness as a virtue. He belittles the idea of selfishness in Chapter 7, “The Inordinately Selfish,” of his book *The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements*. He writes: The inordinately selfish are particularly susceptible to frustration. The more selfish a person, the more poignant his disappointments. It is the inordinately selfish, therefore, who are likely to be the most persuasive champions of selflessness. The fiercest fanatics are often selfish people who were forced, by innate shortcomings or e... more »

Ford The Businessman?
When Doug Ford came to power, he promised to run Ontario like a business and cut outrageous costs. As an illustration of his philosophy, he vowed to fire Mayo Schmidt -- Hydro One's CEO -- who Ford labelled "the six million dollar man." One of the first things Ford did when he assumed office was show Schmidt the door. But, Martin Regg Cohn writes, there were financial consequences that accompanied Schmidt's departure: First, Schmidt walked away with a handsome $10.7 million in severance and stock options, despite the premier’s assurances that it would be essentially costless.

Has Poor Old Biden Passed The Torch Yet? Or Does He Still Think He's The Man For The Moment?
