Trump's Scheme To Sell Off Millions Of Acres Of Public Lands Just Came To A Screeching Halt

*Pendley looks like a crook because he is a crook* Trump has the luxury of a spineless, knee-jerk Republican Senate run by #MoscowMitch, a Senate that has shown that it is willing to confirm a steaming pile of stinking crap if Trump sets one down in front of it... Donald even has some Democraps-- like Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin-- willing to go along for the ride. But some of his nominations-- the undeniable cutthroats and thieves who are beyond just unqualified but who are being put in place to destroy and upend decades of bipartisan policy... well, some of those have even ...

Tritto: “everything in China is dual-use technology” civilian/military
Bob Dinn, balance10 - 2 hours ago
8-16-20 Tritto meticulously documents the process whereby an effort to develop a SARS vaccine, using the technique of reverse genetics, took a dark turn. Reverse genetics is used to create viral strains that have reduced pathogenicity but to which the immune system responds by creating antibodies against the virus. Only, reverse genetics can also be used to create viral strains that have increased pathogenicity. And that is exactly what was encouraged once the Chinese military got involved. As a bonus, genomes from HIV were added to the new virus to make it even more nasty. As r...

The Gayatri Mantra occurs in the early section of the *Rigveda *(Mandala 3.62.10); so it must have been composed between 900 B.C. and 1200 B.C. This means that the hymn is more than 3000 years old, but it’s revered by the Hindus as a pious way of starting and ending their day—everyday millions of people recite it at sunrise and sunset; many are convinced that this hymn represents the essence of the *Vedas*. It’s not clear why the Gayatri Mantra continues to be so popular; this is the only hymn in the world whose recitation has been widespread for more than 3000 years: *ॐ भूर् भुव...
