Dewey Fernfield, The Duran - 21 hours ago

Crime, Punishment And Non-Punishment In The USA (Open list) (0 submissions)
TheDarkMan, The Duran - 21 hours ago
There is a legal principle that the punishment should fit the crime, more specifically that the sentence should be proportional to the offence – a man shouldn’t be executed for shoplifting, nor receive probation for serial murder. For some crimes, the actual penalty may be far greater than that imposed by the court. A professional […]

Army Mules: The Beast of Burden in War
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, * Mules served in large numbers with U.S. Army forces during World War II. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Mules filled an important niche in the Allied logistics network, particularly in areas where poor road systems limited wheeled transport. In the words of a veteran of the China-Burma-India Theater, retired Technical Sergeant Edward Rock Jr., [they] “served without a word of complaint or lack of courage. They transported artillery, ammunition, food, and medicine, and under enemy fire transported the wounded. Many of the CBI veterans are he...
Parasite Found in Undercooked Meat and Cat Poop May Be Linked to Rare Brain Cancer
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
I do think that this parasite is way more troublesome than even this item indicates. My own observations indicates a linkage to human schizophrenia. Yet this rarely expresses as a cancer at all. A background parasite can linger and do damage for decades because reproduction is through eggs that lock up in cysts for long periods. Actual damage is then caused by physical burying in affected tissue. All nasty and difficult to discover in place. The only symptom can be erratic behavior outbursts causually associated with cats generally but never directly. This is so far, my spe...
Fish-inspired robots coordinate movements without any outside control
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
Now imagine a schooling swarm of attack robots operating over thousands of cubic miles. The military potential is massive. A focus of attack mode can draw in assets from near and far without weakening the school coverage. Now imagine a thousand hunter kiler drones providing coverage for an aircraft carrier platform. When one moves, all the rest move randomly. Never anything to ever zero in on. Yet the whole pattern flows as a body. This tech is coming fast. . *Fish-inspired robots coordinate movements without any outside controlJANUARY 13, 2021by Har...
Dire Wolf Genetics
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
This is a serious surprise and informs a separate long evolution in the Americas. So why are they extinct? No pack behavior? It was not a lack of food.. Yet its prime range was North America which suffered worst in the Pleistocene nonconformity some 12950 years ago. That can explain its loss as that ended most large creatures then. So the best explanation is sudden loss of range and food. North American lions were also lost then. *The dire wolf was a distinct species, different from the gray wolf, biologists discover* *by University of California, Los Angeles* *JANUARY 1...

What Does Big Tech's Rejection of Parler Mean for Trump's Supporters?
Alex Newhouse, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Alex Newhouse* *Social Media, The Americas* Parler is similar to Twitter but doesn’t control or discourage hate speech or calls to violence. Early in the morning of Jan. 11, the social media platform Parler went offline after Amazon withdrew the platform’s web hosting services. Parler sued Amazon in response. Amazon’s move followed Google and Apple’s banning the Parler app from their app stores. The tech companies cited the platform’s inability or unwillingness to block calls for and threats of violence. Amazon’s move shut the platform down, at least until the company can find ...
Shortage of Workers: The Real Coronavirus Vaccine Problem
Anna Nagurney, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Anna Nagurney* *Coronavirus, The Americas* Relaxing constraints on labor, so that they can engage in other supply chain activities as needed, can have immense positive effects on product flows and even firms’ profits. On the other hand, a labor shortage in a single link, be it in freight, storage, manufacturing or processing, can result in a big decrease in product availability. After the initial excitement following the authorization of the first COVID-19 vaccines, a harsh reality set in. People who want a vaccine can’t get it, some counties have more than others and older peop...
"Data scientists" don't have any expertise to determine Covid policies
Luboš Motl, The Reference Frame - 21 hours ago
It is absolutely shocking to watch the decay of the United States of America as we have known them since 1776. The degree of censorship and general terror against the political opposition already puts the U.S. among the 10 least free countries in the world. Donald Trump – the most impotant politician on Planet Earth – has been silenced on all well-known Internet servers. People are being fired from their jobs, these fired workers' Pavlik-Morozov-style defective kids are being financially rewarded for reporting that their parents support Trump, Trump has lost the business relationshi...

Great Power Conflict Won’t Resemble World War II-Style Warfare

*Kris Osborn* *Security, * Future great-power war, the thinking maintains, will involve both major weapons platforms and large forces as well as countless unconventional or irregular dynamics. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Army leaders currently developing next-generation tanks, infantry carriers and other armored vehicles explain that counterinsurgency remains a key part of their developmental emphasis, due in part to the reality the future war is expected to be non-linear, multi-domain and by no means clearly definable.

On Empathy for One’s Culture and Tradition
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 1 day ago
Empathy for one’s culture and tradition is the key to gaining freedom from the past and charting a new future. Those who despise their culture and tradition are overwhelmed by the baggage of history.

THE GOP IS NOW THE "FREE HELICOPTER RIDES" PARTY
Steve M., No More Mister Nice Blog - 1 day ago
According to a Quinnipiac poll released Monday, approval of the job Donald Trump is doing has dropped to 71% among Republicans, down from 89% in Quinnipiac's previous national poll, taken in December. But in the House of Representatives, Trump's support among Republicans appears much more solid: Of the 207 GOP members who voted on impeachment today, 197 voted no. Trump retained the backing of 95% of House Republicans. Of course, there might be explanations for the high loyalty rate apart from admiration. WATCH: Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.) says majority of GOP "paralyzed with fear" @R...

It's just as well. The last thing his widow needed to hear was Trump telling her, "He knew what he signed up for." ------------------------------ Don't forget, a black man was arrested three and a half years ago for praying in the Capitol Building.

Necessary and Insufficient: The Problems Impeachment Does Not Solve
bwittes, Lawfare - 1 day ago
President Trump disembarks Marine One at Valley International Airport in Harlingen, Texas on Jan. 12, 2021 (Official White House Photo by Shealah Craighead). And so they impeached him. What else could they do? They could not ignore his behavior over the months since his election defeat—the pattern of behavior that culminated in the president’s move last week to assemble a mob in Washington and loose it on the Capitol. If ever a sequence of presidential actions positively required congressional response, a failure of which would render laughable the whole notion of an executive b...
