Japan is Revamping Their Military. With China in Mind?
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 18 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *China Japan, Asia* The U.S. and Japan have recently beefed up their defense alliance with an eye to China. Here's What You Need to Remember: Given its consistent and growing presence in the Pacific, the U.S. Navy would be very well positioned to respond in defense of Japan with Carrier Strike Groups, air assets from Guam or even amphibious forces dispatched to safeguard the islands from any kind of Chinese incursion. The U.S. military and Japanese Self Defense Forces have mutually committed to strengthening alliances, training opportunities and joint military ex...

Branson-backed Company Captures Mega Tons of Carbon Injected Into Concrete–and Amazon is Building Their HQ With It

First off, the production of cement involves the reduction of calcium and magnesium carbonates while producing massive amounts of CO2. For that reason alone it is a good plan to mix CO2 back in during the mixing stage. If this process generates a slurry of micro crystals as a first step, then it immediately captures much of the eventual shrinkage alleviating the problems assocoated with curing. They are obviously well past proof of concept stage. We may able to recapture the bulk of production CO2. *Branson-backed Company Captures Mega Tons of Carbon Injected Int...

I think that it may also allow the consious mind to easily step onto other pages of time and thus also travel through space while percieved as astral projection.

*Kris Osborn* *Stealth Fighters, * Here's why the F-22 chosen, despite Northrop’s stealth technology expertise with platforms such as the B-2. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The Cold War was a time of high defense spending and investments in experimental technology. One of those technologies was the creation of stealth fighter prototypes. The U.S. Air Force chose to build the F-22 in the 1980s following an extensive and thorough competition, a process that appears to have led to the engineering of the most dominant air-to-air platform in the world. *This first appeared earl...

By 1939 the German Reich possessed 3,800,000 horses while 885,000 were initially called to the Wehrmacht as saddle, draft, and pack animals. Of these, 435,000 horses were captured from the USSR, France, and Poland. ...
