Carnot puts a centrifugal spin on a 500 year old air compressor design
I am surprised that i never came across this before. spinning it up gets the job done with a sharp reduction in scale. Suddenly is as as small as its immediate competators. The magic number though is 100 psi and this appears completely possible. My reason for that is that is the point in which Coanda effect behavior is possible and acts like a limiting issue for complex systems. What this is though is a mainstay for all machine tools in use. 3 *Carnot puts a centrifugal spin on a 500 year old air compressor design* ... more »
Why LBJ Chose Not to Run for Reelection in 1968 – Then Attempted to Retract it
I had never quite understood thte importance of the timing around the elimination of robert Kenneday and MLK. Otherwise I have long since come up to speed regarding the origins of both and certainly knew LBJ had seen them both off. I also knew he knew regarding Dallas but left the issue of prime driver aside when we had Allan Dulles in particular. Yet he had a long prehistory that bespoke Mafia Boss at best. Not too unlike HRC. So tactically stepping aside to avoid a drubbing in the primaries is sensible and finishing the wet work already in motion eliminated an obvious motiv... more »

'The Real Unemployment Rate is 21% - and Heading Higher"
*'The Real Unemployment Rate is 21% - and Heading Higher"* by Charles Hugh Smith "It is somewhat less than reassuring that the "official" unemployment rate of around 12% is roughly half of the "real-world" unemployment rate. As always in the wonderful world of statistics, especially politically potent ones, it depends on what you measure, what you don't measure/act as if it doesn't exist, and how you measure what you do measure. Everyone who digs beneath the headline numbers of employment/unemployment soon discovers a number of jarring anomalies in what the media presents as "factua... more »

'Missiles' Have a Centuries-Long History in Korea
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Asia* Pyongyang and Seoul are investing in advanced missile technology in the hopes it will deter foreign attack. The idea is far from new. *Key Point*: It’s said history doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes. In the late 14th century, Korea’s ruling Joseon dynasty began an all-out espionage campaign to acquire classified missile technology from neighboring China. At the time, stateless wokou “dwarf pirates”—so called because of their comparatively shorter stature—were ravaging the Korean coast from bases in Japan. The Joseon dynasty sought effe... more »

*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * Who would win? *Key Point*: If the Merkava offers any lessons to the U.S. military, it should be regarding the importance of fielding effective countermeasures against more advanced anti-tank missiles. The Israeli *Merkava *(Chariot) main battle tank is an example of a sophisticated weapon system designed to deal with very specific national requirements. Though similar in performance to Western main battle tanks such as the German Leopard 2 and American M1 Abrams, the Merkava has many features not found in any other contemporary tank designs.

A U.S. Aircraft Carrier's Greatest Foe Isn't China or Russia
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Americas* It's fire and fatigue. *Key Point*: The 1966 USS Oriskany incident was a timely warning of the danger of overworking a crew beyond the limits of its manpower. Two deadly collisions involving U.S. Navy destroyers in June and August 2017 may have cost the lives of up to sixteen sailors, leading the Navy to declare a day-long operational pause to reflect upon its safety culture. That such similar accidents took place in such close proximity reflects stresses and failings common to the maritime fighting branch. Indeed, the recent spate of coll... more »

July 20, 2020 by: S.D. Wells (Natural News) Which has killed more people: disease, famine, nuclear weapons or communism? Here’s a little story. In the mid-1800s, Europe was in upheaval. Violent riots erupted in more than 50 countries. Stores were wiped out by looters. Small businesses ruined. The “protests” had to be “calmed down” with … Continue reading Communism: The DEADLIEST VIRUS in the world spreads across America →
Climate Justice Advocates Celebrate Important Victories But Big Oil And Gas Aren’t Giving In
Climate justice advocates are justifiably celebrating recent victories such as stopping three major pipelines, a new court decision regarding the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and national discussion of the Green New Deal, but does this mean we are winning? We speak with Steve Horn, a climate reporter and investigative journalist, about the future of the Atlantic Coast, Dakota Access and Keystone XL pipelines, what it means that oil companies are going bankrupt and a proposal to create a North American version of OPEC. Steve describes how fossil fuel companies are working to... more »

China's Top Gun Has No Tom Cruise (More Like Trouble in the South China Sea)
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Asia* U.S. cinema has had a major influence on what the Chinese public views as the trappings of modernity. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The script’s greatest problem, however, is its unwillingness to portray any serious flaws in its hyper-patriotic heroes. Most good military films explore the tension between the mechanistic obedience and composure under stress demanded by military organizations, versus natural human emotional responses, individualism and idealism. But in Sky Hunter, the heroes never enter real conflict, and their emotions n... more »

The Dying Throes Of A Monster-- Batten Down The Hatches
Yesterday, on his blog, *Ameritecture*, William Steding wrote The Allure of Madness, positing that "As the country descends into chaos, driven by a mix of structural inequities and a ruthless pandemic that requires leadership far beyond the grasp of Trump World, we each have a choice: stand in resolution guided by values and virtue, or hitch a ride on a comet of madness toward a romanticized return to a mythical normal that will never be normal again. Regression-- the fantasy of returning to yesterday-- is the fault line of the selfish and uninspired. Progress requires clear-min... more »
The Fallacy of Belief
An interesting article (2 of 3) considers the topic “How Fake is Church History?” and it seems to add support that first millennium Western history is problematical at best and BS at worst. The burning question is whether this history … Continue reading →
America's F-4 Phantom Did Not Rule The Skies. The F-35 May Not Either
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * America was in for a rude awakening in Vietnam. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Vietnam analogy highlights potential vulnerabilities of the F-35, but also cannot definitively account for the different technologies in play when evaluating the Lightning’s adaptability to the air superiority role. Key performance parameters concerning the effective range of long-range IRST, radars and missiles used by and against an stealth jet are probably necessary for a fairer evaluation, but are likely to be kept under wraps by anybody in a position to kn... more »
B-59 Airacomet: America's First Jet Plane Fought the Hitler and North Koreans
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * Hastily designed to counter Nazis superfighters in the early 1940s, America’s first operational fighter jet would have an unexpected and long-lasting legacy. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *In 1943, Allied intelligence indicated that Nazi Me-262 jets capable of 540 miles per hour would soon join the fray. Lockheed was asked to produce its own jet fighter using a more powerful British turbojet—in just six months. On November 8, 1950, a flight of four straight-winged jets swooped down on an airfield at Sinuiju, North Korea—on the Korean side of ... more »
What Happened The One (and Only) Time Submarines Battled?
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * While hunting undersea enemies is one of the primary jobs of modern attack submarines, only one undersea sub engagement has ever taken place, under decidedly unique circumstances. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *More than a half century later later, the wreck of *U-864* was found in 2003 by the Norwegian Navy, two miles off Fedje. It was discovered that the cargo of poisonous liquid mercury had been slowly seeping from the flasks into the surrounding ocean. *The Hunt for Red October *dramatized for the public one of the tensest forms of warfa... more »
What Happens When Two Nuclear Submarines Collide? This Sub Found Out.
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * In 1992, a Russian and American submarine ran into one another. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The *Baton Rouge *surely did not use active sonar so as to remain undetected. Nor did it detect active sonar from the *Kostroma*. Thus, neither vessel was using active sonar, and their passive sonars were likely not strong enough to detect the other in the noisy shallows. It’s tempting to think of sonar as a sort of radar that works underwater. However, water is a far less compliant medium than air even for the most modern sensors, and wind conditio... more »

IT WOULD BE NICE IF BEING A DEMOCRAT WERE CONSIDERED AN ASSET
I'm not thrilled about this, but I understand it: Former Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) is expected to speak on behalf of former Vice President Joe Biden at the Democratic National Convention next month. It’s unclear if Kasich will explicitly endorse the presumptive Democratic nominee when he speaks at the convention. But the expected remarks would amount to a major show of support for Biden by a lifelong Republican.... The cons are obvious: We’re talking about giving a primetime slot at a Democratic convention to a union-busting fetus-fondler who has attached himself to the worst idea i... more »
FDA Targets Homeopathy Remedies
The FDA has issued its first warnings against homeopathic medicines, and this is only the beginning. The FDA has sent warning letters to four companies that sell injectable homeopathic medicine because, in the agency’s view, injectable homeopathic medicines “can pose a serious risk to patient health.” This is following a bad guidance the agency is in the process of completing that upends decades of safe regulation of homeopathic medicines. The FDA’s position on homeopathic injectables puts safe pain and cancer therapies in jeopardy. In our view, the FDA is using this initial attac... more »
12 Homeopathic Remedies That Should Be in Every Survival Kit
In the event of a natural or man-made disaster, you may be cut off from medical aid. One of the most important things to have on hand will be a homeopathy emergency survival kit. Homeopathy is cheap, effective, and has no side effects. This medical science uses natural substances to stimulate the body to heal itself. Most homeopathic remedies are made from herbs and minerals, and they are based on the principle discovered over 200 years ago in Germany by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann that like cures like. This means that a substance that produces symptoms in a healthy person can be used to ... more »
