Hallmark and the LGBTQ political agenda
This was my first year to watch Hallmark Christmas movies--I needed a diversion. A few of the older reruns even had carols about baby Jesus. No one was forced to watch them and I was not damaged by living to 80 without seeing one. They are cheesy, corny and chaste. Too bad Hallmark is being blackmailed. And this power agenda is coming to your club, company, church, library, or workplace soon if it hasn't already. You must obey. I've looked through some of the media business articles--I see no evidence that there is a demand for this from conservatives, liberals, Christians, Jews, ... more »
Most Americans Want Drug Prices Lowered-- But The Republicans Just Will Not Permit It
Bernie has been advocating cutting prescription drug prices in half for decades. His Medicare-for-All proposal would do that. Ge wrote in his plan that "to lower the prices of prescription drugs now, we need to: *•* Allow Medicare to negotiate with the big drug companies to lower prescription drug prices with the Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Act. *•* Allow patients, pharmacists, and wholesalers to buy low-cost prescription drugs from Canada and other industrialized countries with the Affordable and Safe Prescription Drug Importation Act. *•* Cut prescription drug prices in half,... more »
Hypocrisy laid bare
I didn't think it was possible for some of our politicians to sink to new lows. They've already plumbed so many depths, so shamelessly, that anything worse seemed beyond them. I was wrong. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi indicated Thursday that she would delay sending the articles of impeachment to the Senate, seeking more clarity on the rules for President Trump’s trial and potentially pushing the proceedings well into the new year. Mrs. Pelosi’s comments drew condemnation from Republican lawmakers and President Trump, but the California Democrat said that she couldn’t select impeac... more »

*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * And continues to serve the American people. *Key point: *Smith & Wesson’s nine-millimeter handgun has earned a noteworthy place in American firearms history. One of the earliest American nine-millimeter pistols was adopted for wartime service to take out enemy sentries… and barking dogs. The Smith & Wesson Model 39 semi-automatic handgun served U.S. Navy SEALs during the Vietnam War and then went on to become one of the American nine-millimeter high capacity pistols, the Model 59.

NSA: Documenting Iran-U.S. Relations, 1978-2015
Washington, D.C., December 19, 2019 – For 40 years, since the first year of the founding of the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979, the United States and Iran have been the bitterest of political adversaries. Yet, every U.S. president has at a certain point reached out to the theocratic regime in Tehran, either for a short-term policy objective or a longer-term improvement of relations, according to declassified records published this month by the National Security Archive.
"It Depends on The Meaning of the Word ‘Is’"
*"It Depends on The Meaning of the Word ‘Is’"* by Simon Black "By February 1868, President Andrew Johnson had been at odds with Congress for years. Johnson had been Vice President for barely a month when Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1864, and his battles with Congress started from practically Day 1. Johnson shared Lincoln’s view that the Confederacy should be swiftly and gently reintegrated back into the Union after the Civil War; neither wanted to penalize the South. But at the time, Congress was filling up with politicians known as “Radical Republicans” who were anything B... more »

Thorium
I went through this argument years ago. What really matters in the long term is that these thorium reactors can be used to be a safe heat engine while consuming all forms of radioactives including polonium and plutonium. All this material is capable of been broken down over various spans of time. Thus a cooking kettle can be kept stocked while continuously producing heat with a steady diet of all the nasties. Rather soon, the whole uranium industry will be formerly abandoned as simply way too dangerous. All that uranium can be fed into a thorium reactor and we can once and ... more »
Research Shows We Can Heal With Vibration, Frequency & Sound
It is all about vibration. The problem is getting a handle on physical scale and the frequency.

Rather clearly direct stimulation will trigger natural healing. Resonance will do that. Some of the methods are crude enough but do surprise with results. All this has to be pr... more »

Ruger's Pistol Caliber Carbine Is Receiving Strong Marks, And We Know Why
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, North America* The ultimate guide you need. *Key point: *The owner of a Glock pistol and PC Carbine can own a common set of magazines. Once upon a time, there was a niche for a rifle that was shorter than traditional rifles, making it handier and easier to travel with.

From World War I’s German army to the British army fighting ISIS in Syria, the Luger round has served militaries for over a century. Despite its age, the 9mm is more dangerous than ever before, due to innovations in ammunition lethality that squee... more »
With 200,000 Special Forces, North Korea Is A Dangerous Foe
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Asia* Don't underestimate them. *Key point:* North Korean special forces have evolved from a nuisance force designed to stage attacks in the enemy’s rear into something far more dangerous. One of the most vital parts of North Korea’s war machine is one that relies the most on so-called “soldier power” skills. North Korea has likely the largest special-forces organization in the world, numbering two hundred thousand men—and women—trained in unconventional warfare.

The fine print in the policies may look and read like insurance, but the reality is that they are a scheme to promise and tax until the system breaks, leaving only the political and financial elite with real health care. The rest will suffer and die prematurely and, in the meantime, live in poverty and slavery.

*Kris Osborn* *Security, Americas* The weapons, now in development for several years, will build upon the existing arsenal of air-to-air and air-to-ground weapons now operating on the F-35. *Key Point:* If weapons are kept in an internal weapons bay and not rested on an external weapons pod, then an aircraft can succeed in retaining its stealth properties because the shapes or contours of the weapons will not be visible to enemy radar. The F-35 will again fire its 25mm gun and air-drop several new laser-guided bombs to prepare stealth 5th-Gen fighter for future high tech warfare... more »

Of course, it’s in part the fault of the country’s determination to buy the F-35 that it stands little chance of... more »
A U.S. Destroyer Almost Sank A Navy Battleship With President Roosevelt On Board
*Sebastien Roblin* *History, Asia* Too close for comfort. *Key Point:* The unluckiest ship in the Navy had one good turn left:... Patriotic action movies would have you believe military units regularly perform like well-oiled fighting machines. But sometimes reality is closer to Bill Murray’s *Stripes*. Such at least was the case of the *William D. Porter*, whose mishaps were famously immortalized in an article by Kit Bonner. Named after a swashbuckling Union Civil War captain, the *Porter* was one of 175 *Fletcher*-class destroyers built during World War II. Destroyers, dubbed... more »
