If There Was No Florida Democratic Party, It Would Be Easier For Democrats To Win
Last night I got an extraordinary e-mail from Alan Grayson. I don't think he sent it to anyone but me and I decided not to send it to anyone else, not even Adam Christensen, whose new video is directly above. This was Grayson's e-mail; you can read it at the same time Adam Christensen does: I endorse *Adam Christensen* for Congress. I’ll tell you why, but first, a question. How many URLs are there? The answer is that, even if you limit yourself only to 10 characters or less (like www.absolutely.com), there are 141 trillion URLs. Lots and lots of choices. Adam’s campaign URL is Fo... more »

Could A Modified F-35 Carry Out The Marine Corps' Electronic Warfare?
*David Axe* *Technology, Americas* With the EA-6B Prowler's retirement, the Marines are in need of a new electronic warfare aircraft. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Marines aren’t assuming the F-35 all by itself will be able to suppress all enemy air defenses. The Corps also is developing the Intrepid Tiger II, a radio- and radar-jamming pod that’s compatible with almost any rotorcraft or fixed-wing plane. The Corps is integrating I.T. II on its AV-8B jump jets, UH-1Y transport helicopters, KC-130J aerial tankers and MV-22B tiltrotors. The U.S. Marine Corps is trying to... more »

Veterans sign letter of support for President Trump
ABC on November 11, 2018 reported on the problem of change in schedule. President Trump is getting slammed for skipping a WWI ceremony due to rain.

I have been writing in this column about power and energy issues for about five years now and still the sector continues to amaze me with so many twists and surprises, good and bad for consumers.

*Money Box* presenter Paul Lewis isn't happy with people criticising the BBC's comedy output: When will these numbnuts realise that comedy and satire mocks people in power.

'Walking on a thesaurus of eggshells'
Watching and listening to news reports about events overnight in Birmingham, I think Alastair Stewart OBE has it right: The reporting, this morning, of these hideous events demonstrated my concerns about 'walking on a thesaurus of eggshells'. Sensitive reporters ended up linguistically dancing around the facts of who did what to whom, and why. They are choosing their words so slowly and so carefully that what appear to be central facts are left a tad opaque. Generalities and euphemisms serve no one. ******* *P.S. *Here's a little exchange on a related matter: *Paul Embery*: So... more »
Sunday morning music
I thought it might be helpful to explain the difference between the lute, the theorbo and the archlute, all mainstays of baroque and Renaissance music. The lute is the "base instrument" for the other two. Wikipedia defines the lute as "any plucked string instrument with a neck and a deep round back enclosing a hollow cavity, usually with a sound hole or opening in the body. It may be either fretted or unfretted ... The European lute and the modern Near-Eastern *oud* descend from a common ancestor via diverging evolutionary paths."

The Empire’s Fake War on Terror
The end of the Cold War in 1990 presented a serious problem for the American empire. The threat of communism could no longer justify massive wartime military budgets and a worldwide system of military bases. It could no longer justify American military intervention to protect corporate interests whenever a nation’s political establishment threatened change. The easy profits from military contracts decreased as peace spread throughout the world. The solution was an extensive propaganda campaign to replace the threat of communism with the threat of terrorism.

*Richard Douglas* *Technology, * With the Glock changing the game so many years ago, Walther has taken the ball and run with it.

Better aesthetics may impress from first-look, but there’s more to discover with improvements in this class that elevate this Luger to a higher set. *Accuracy* The PPQ is very accura... more »

One of those invalid memes that I want to discuss – because I got several copies of that meme just in recent hours – is the idea that The point of the black hole is the singularity. That is what makes a black hole a black hole and that's also where the mysteries of black holes hide. This opin... more »

The BBC, its formula and white van man
There are other intriguing things in that Sarah Sands interview. Talking about 'the laser focus of the *Today* programme on government', she says: “There’s a formula: there’s a crisis and the government is both the problem and the answer.” That, of course, applies to programmes like *Newsnight* too. She continues: “But a lot of people’s lives take place outside the state. And there’s also an element of not always being on the side of those just trying to earn a living.” This is a long-standing, justified criticism of the BBC - that it's a public sector institution with a p... more »
