From Orwell to the Irwell
Craig, Is the BBC biased? - 21 hours ago
Rod Liddle's turn of phrase remains a thing of beauty. In his *Sunday Times *column today he writes about the Treasury's decision to move 750 jobs to Darlington in County Durham and wonder whether it will change the culture of the Treasury... Or [he asks] will it be more like the BBC’s move to Salford, in which the corporation’s bien-pensant producers simply transported their asinine belief systems 200 miles up the M6 and the only locals who got jobs were electricians?
Can Russia’s Tu-160 Bomber Beat the American B-1?
TNI Staff, The National Interest - 22 hours ago
*TNI Staff* *Nuclear War, World* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2021%3Anewsml_RC2YKL9Z4A3K&share=true] Both warplanes are strategic bombers that could carry nuclear weapons. *Key Point*: The Tu-160 is faster, however the B-1B has its own advantage by coming in at a low altittude. Here is how the two planes stack up. The Rockwell International B-1B Lancer strategic bomber and the Russian Tu-160 Blackjack look visually similar and even share some overlap in their mission sets, however, the two aircraft are quite different. *This first appeared ea...
In a Russia-NATO War, These 10 Weapons Would Raze Europe
TNI Staff, The National Interest - 22 hours ago
*TNI Staff* *Security, * Fortunately, neither Russia nor America want to fight one. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The allies’ own military capabilities also pose a threat to Russia. With some exceptions like China, India and Brazil, most of the top military spenders in the world are U.S. allies. Although the United States frequently (and justifiably) chides NATO members for not spending enough on defense, even without the United States, NATO still spends about three times as much on defense each year as Russia does. Between the never ending conflict in Ukraine, the crisis i...

Gospel Jn 2:13-25 Since the Passover of the Jews was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. He found in the temple area those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, as well as the money changers seated there.

Scientists study role of snails in parasites that pose public health threat
News Desk, Food Safety News - 23 hours ago
Researchers have increased knowledge of the lifecycle of some parasites by studying snails in Thailand.

Where Is Corporate America Going To Find All Those New Minority Hires?
Francis Menton, Manhattan Contrarian - 1 day ago
* Last summer, in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis and of the resurgence of “black lives matter” movement, Corporate America came forth with a massive wave of pledges to hire more black employees, especially for leadership positions. * If you, as a major corporation, had fewer than 13% black employees in any category of job titles, the obvious inference would that your efforts at “diversity, equity and inclusion” had thus far been deficient, and indeed you were likely engaged in “systemic racism,” if not “white supremacy.” Time to redouble your efforts at af...

UUVs are Giving China New Means of Naval Attack
Lyle J. Goldstein, The National Interest - 23 hours ago
*Lyle J. Goldstein* *Security, Asia* The Achilles Heel of the Chinese Navy has long been undersea warfare. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The robot submarine (and unmanned surface ship) era is now nearly upon us. Chinese naval strategist have, moreover, stated explicitly that they intend to circumvent their long-recognized weakness in submarine warfare by cultivating undersea AI and by developing highly capable UUVs. The Achilles Heel of the Chinese Navy has long been undersea warfare. The Middle Kingdom’s nuclear submarines are considered noisy, with their “boomers” [SSBNs...
The U.S. Military Wants More Drones over the Pacific
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 23 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *Drones, Asia-Pacific* Both U.S. Navy and Air Force agree that there is an ongoing demand, particularly in the Pacific, for more surveillance drones and ISR platforms. The Navy only operates two Triton drones in the Pacific, yet there is an insatiable demand for more intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR). And with oceanic regions spanning millions of miles of ocean, this introduces questions about the scale of drone operations in the Pacific and the pace at which the Navy and Air Force are accelerating plans to add more unmanned systems to the force. ...

That is just 14 years from now. Coal-fired power will also be gone, the war on […]
CNN’s Biased ‘Facts First’ Can’t Get Its Facts Straight About HR 1 Or Pence
PA Pundits - International, PA Pundits – International - 1 day ago
By Hans von Spakovsky ~ The so-called “mainstream” media, including CNN, is apoplectic over former Vice President Mike Pence’s recent commentary in The Daily Signal in which he says that “election integrity is a national imperative.” Apparently, they disagree, and don’t like that he points out the serious problems with HR 1, which just passed […]

X-40A: Super Plane or Super Bust?
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Peter Suciu* *History, Americas* Today only one X-40A test vehicle remains in existence, and it is in the collection of the National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton, Ohio. However, the program, which is now largely forgotten, proved instrumental in the development of the X-37B–the United States Space Force's reusable space plane, which is currently conducting its mission in low Earth orbit. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *"The X-40A had to autonomously find the runway, account for wind gusts, and track a straight course down the runway centerline.

Prepare: America Will Soon Have 5 New Weapons Ready for Battle
Michael Peck, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Michael Peck* *U.S. Military, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC299I965FIM&share=true] Great power competition is heating up and Washington is spending a lot on making sure it wins. *Key point: *These weapons will help America keep a military and technological edge over China and Russia. How soon might they be ready for serial production? The U.S. Army already fields an impressive array of weapons. But as the U.S. Army prepares itself for potential conflicts against high-tech Russian and Chinese armies, the Army is work...
"3 Ways The United States Could Collapse Into Chaos"
CoyotePrime, Running 'Cause I Can't Fly 2 - 1 day ago
*Full screen recommended.* *"3 Ways The United States Could Collapse Into Chaos"* Epic Economist Amid a ravaging economic collapse, tragedies brought on by the ongoing health crisis, and growing social agitation, 2021 has started off as one of the most turbulent years for America. Unemployment rates are still increasing, businesses are dying every day, and despite the distribution of a vaccine, new variants of the virus are being discovered all over the world, which means in addition to the painful human toll, financial and economic distresses are likely to linger for much longer th...
Familiarity Breeds Contempt and Ignorance
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 1 day ago
“What is familiarly known is not properly known, just for the reason that it is familiar,” says Hegel. We can add Hegel’s reasoning to the old proverb “familiarity breeds contempt,” and arrive at the conclusion that the notion of familiarity leads to two pitfalls: contempt and ignorance. When people are psyched into believing that that they are familiar with something, they do not try to investigate that thing; thus, their familiarity becomes the cause of their deficient understanding, and what they do not understand, they hold in contempt. Easy access to university education, and t...
Will Russia and China Build a 'Non-Nuclear' Submarine Together?
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Caleb Larson* *Military Cooperation, * Chinese guts and Russian teeth? *Here's What You Need to Remember:* As one naval expert pointed out, there are several areas where China may be ahead of Russia, propulsion being one of them. Submarine designs are shifting towards AIP, or Air Independent Power, a technology that allows non-nuclear submarines greater underwater endurance and, in some cases, a reduced acoustic signature. According to a recent announcement by the Russian state-controlled media outlet RIA Novosti, Moscow and Beijing are teaming up in yet another military engine...
This Photo Is the Reason Why Japan Was Crushed During World War II
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Americas* Or, the battle of Guadalcanal. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The loss of a battleship was a serious setback to the Japanese, who were all too aware of the fact that they could not replace ships and matériel as readily as the Americans. The chief of the Naval General Staff, Admiral Osami Nagano, told another admiral, “The Japanese navy is different from the American navy. If you lose one ship it will take years to replace.” November 13, 1942, was a Friday, which sailors aboard the cruiser USS *San Francisco* noted with anxiety. ...
The New ‘End of History’
Parag Khanna, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Parag Khanna* *End of History, Asia* [image: End of History] If there is a political system that has emerged victorious from the coronavirus pandemic, it is Asian democratic technocracy. When Francis Fukuyama’s seminal essay *The End of History? *was published in 1989, there was a question mark at the end of the title—and rightly so. He was making a tentative hypothesis, not the strident assertion attributed to him in subsequent years. But the apparent stability of the conditions that prompted his inquiry justifiably lulled many in the West into a false sense of superiority. Wi...
The Controversy Behind Russia’s Sputnik V Vaccine
Lillian Posner, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Lillian Posner* *Russia’s Sputnik V, Europe* [image: Russia’s Sputnik V] Russia’s Sputnik V vaccine is as reliable and effective as a Kalashnikov rifle, according to one infectious disease specialist in Austria. The comparison is especially apt, as the vaccine takes an increasingly active role in Russia’s information warfare.

If the U.S. Economy Booms Would Donald Trump Pass on 2024?
Rachel Bucchino, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Rachel Bucchino* *Donald Trump Economy, Americas* [image: Donald Trump Economy] The larger question that looms, however, is whether Trump and Biden will even run for the commander-in-chief spot since they’ll be 78- and 82-years-old, respectively. Following former President Donald Trump’s election defeat, he almost immediately hinted at the prospects of a 2024 White House bid and devoted his efforts to turn back both congressional chambers to a sea of red in next year’s midterm elections. But while Trump clinches an iron-like grip over the GOP, with Republican lawmakers debating...
Dive!: The 5 Greatest Cold War Submarines
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, Atlantic* The basic design concepts of Cold War submarines were, fortunately, never tested in direct combat *Here's What You Need To Remember:* Waged with advanced, streamlined submarines, hunting each other from the polar ice cap to the Eastern seaboard, the Cold War undersea “game” lasted for over three decades. History’s three great submarine campaigns include the First Battle of the Atlantic, the Second Battle of the Atlantic, and the US Navy’s (USN) war against Japanese commerce in World War II. The contestants fought these campaigns through asymm...

"The Inversion"
CoyotePrime, Running 'Cause I Can't Fly 2 - 1 day ago
*"The Inversion"* by Robert Gore "A seamless web, they all believe because they all believe." "The Gordian Knot," Robert Gore, 2000 "If it seems like the world has turned upside down it’s because it has. Right is wrong and wrong is right. Truth is lies and lies are truth. Knowledge is ignorance and ignorance is knowledge. Success is failure and failure is success. Reality is illusion and illusion is reality.

“Our Bees and Pollinators are Dying:” Lawsuit to Protect Bees from Dangerous EPA Approved Chemical Begins in San Francisco
Nick Meyer, AltHealthWorks.com - 1 day ago
As the world continues to focus on COVID-19, the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election and other similar topics, the world of agriculture has taken a backseat. Meanwhile, the powers-that-be are continuing to push forward an agenda centered around Roundup Ready genetically modified crops, gene edited crops like the recently harvested GMO non-browning apples from a little known Canadian company in Washington state, and other “modern” agricultural tools. While these highly toxic and destructive farming inputs are highly profitable for the multi-national corporations that sell them...
