How Toxic Will DeSantis Be-- Not To Mention Trump-- For Down-Ballot Republican Incumbents In Florida?
*COVID Ron with COVID Don* Polling shows that Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is the second most hated governor in the U.S. Just 29% of Floridians say he's handled the pandemic well (and that includes the 4% who think he's handled it "very well"). Who's worse? Iowans say Kim Reynolds, who only had 26% willing to say she's done a good job on the pandemic. As of yesterday, there were 685,439 cases in Florida-- 31,914 cases per million residents, the worst in the country outside of Louisiana. Florida has active 453,331 cases (worst in America by far), which means there will be more deaths adde... more »
Here's How a 6-3 Supreme Court Would be Different
*Morgan Marietta* *Politics, The Americas* A court with a 6-3 conservative majority would be a dramatic shift from the court of recent years, which was more closely divided, with Ginsburg as the leader of the liberal wing of four justices and Chief Justice John Roberts as the frequent swing vote. If the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is replaced this year, the Supreme Court will become something the country has not seen since the justices became a dominant force in American cultural life after World War II: a decidedly conservative court. A court with a 6-3 conservative majori... more »

"China absolutely building out massive surveillance state domestically/internationally"
Zhenhua Data's chief executive Wang Xuefeng boasted of using data to wage "hybrid warfare". "China is absolutely building out a massive surveillance state domestically/internationally" Professor Balding told the *ABC*…. "This mass collection of data is taking place in China's private sector, in the same way Beijing outsources its cyber attack capability to private subcontractors," Mr Potter told the ABC….

Coronavirus Mutations: The Next Covid Threat?
*Lucy van Dorp* *Public Health, World* The term mutation tends to conjure up images of dangerous new viruses with enhanced abilities sweeping across the planet. And while mutations constantly emerge and sometimes sweep – early mutations in Sars-CoV-2 have made their way around the world as the virus spread almost unnoticed. In early January, the first genome sequence of Sars-CoV-2 – the virus that causes COVID-19 – was released under the moniker “Wuhan-1”. This string of 30,000 letters (the A, T, C and Gs of the genetic code) marked day one in the race to understand the genetics ... more »
This Civil War Commander Might Be the Worst Leader in U.S. Military History
*Warfare History Network* *History, Americas* For his part in the Sand Creek Massacre and his lust for power, John Chivington is often regarded as one of America's worst leaders ever. *Key Point*: Motives and morals matter just as much as tactics and leadership. John M. Chivington was a prominent military commander during the American Civil War in the West. Initially an ordained Methodist Minister, Chivington would abuse his position as a military commander, leading the federal government to condemn his actions as an officer of the United States Military.

OLED vs. QLED: Which HDTV Should Rule Your Living Room?
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Technology, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2014%3Anewsml_LR1EA950ZHD7U&share=true] Both TVs have their fans and detractors. Here's how they compare. In today’s high-end HDTV market, there are two basic technologies: OLED and QLED. It is indeed a difficult choice if you have to pick between these two heavyweights of the TV universe but settling on one is definitely easier if pricing isn’t a concern. In short, if you have all the money in the world, the choice would be simple—go with an OLED TV. But if you’re more o... more »

*Stephen Silver* *Entertainment, Americas* A big test will come at the end of October when Disney+’s The Mandalorian, the Star Wars-related series that emerged last year as one of the most popular streaming shows, returns for its second season. Earlier this month, Nielsen began offering weekly ratings for streaming TV shows. When it launched the first week of September, the ratings consisted only of Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, although Netflix nonetheless took up all ten spots in the weekly top ten. Now, the second week of ratings are out, and while Disney+ and Hulu have now... more »
Vladimir Putin's UN Speech: Will Russia Head A New Nonaligned Movement?
*Nikolas K. Gvosdev* *Politics, World* Putin has made an implicit proposal—to the Europeans and to the major powers of the global South—to avoid becoming involved in any emerging U.S.-China cold war. Russian president Vladimir Putin did not quite deliver the address he expected he would at the September United Nations General Assembly meeting—in fact, he wasn't even physically present at Turtle Bay! This is a far cry from his stated plans, whereby 2020 would serve as a triumphant milestone for Russia, celebrating the seventy-fifth anniversary of Moscow's role in defeating the Na... more »
The Marines’ Joint Light Tactical Vehicles Are In For An Upgrade — And There’s Nothing “Light” About It
*Caleb Larson* *Security, * The Marine Corps wants to equip some 300 Joint Light Tactical Vehicles with a 30-millimeter chain gun. According to a notice, the U.S. Marine Corps would like to equip some of their Joint Light Tactical Vehicles (JLTV) with a 30mm chain gun to give better protection from air attack. The gun, called XM914E1 by the Corps, is chambered in the large 30mm x 113mm cartridge (or rather, shell), and would pack a prodigious punch.

Bolsonaro continues privatization push in Brazil
[image: Bolsonaro continues privatization push in Brazil] Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro has continued with his aggressive push to privatize public assets of the Brazilian state within the past six months. The list includes 53 oil fields, 39 offshore rigs, 13,000 km of gas pipelines, 124 gas stations and 12 electricity plants, as well as 100 additional assets of Brazil’s state oil company Petrobras. The main argument for the aggressive privatization of assets belonging to Petrobras is to reduce the companies debt, which stood at $91.2 billion in the second quarter of 2020. Conti... more »

Yaws: Infectious Disease Of 2000 BC
Yaws is a childhood disease causing highly infectious skin lesions. It is spread by touch and, in advanced cases, can leave sufferers with severe bone disfigurement. While it is easily curable in its early stages today, and is almost eradicated, the bone disfigurements are irreversible.

How Governments are Handling the "Second Wave" - Tiptoeing Toward Totalitarianism
Sometimes, governments are their own worst enemies. Now that many of our so-called leaders are either threatening or making good on their threats to lock us down again, a brief look at data, sourced from government databanks is in order. For the purposes of this posting, I will look at the data as provided by the United Kingdom on their Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the UK website. Here are four pertinent graphs: As you can see, while the number of positive COVID-19 daily tests has risen to nearly the level that they hit back in April, May and June, the number of deaths has rem... more »

A debate is not an interview, which is what we had last night: a two-headed interview, conducted by a lacklustre over-talking in... more »
