"To some, it looks like a giant chicken running across the sky. To others, it looks like a gaseous nebula where star formation takes place. Cataloged as IC 2944, the Running Chicken Nebula spans about 100 light years and lies about 6,000 light years away toward the constellation of the Centaur (Centaurus). The featured image, shown in scientifically assigned colors, was captured in a 12-hour exposure. The star cluster Collinder 249 is visible embedded in the nebula's glowing gas. Although difficult to discern here, several dark molecular clouds with distinct shapes can be found ins...

The Poet: Matthew Schwartz, "Spadecaller", "One Tear"

*"One Tear"* "Time once scared his hopes astray On that day he left for the open sea. A minute seemed too far away And tomorrow seemed like eternity. Time is no friend to an outcast Whose soul only grieves for its last embrace. "What is one tear in an ocean so vast To a hopeless dreamer drifting in space?" Into the stormy skies he cried those words. For another chance - knowing it was his last. His ship sunk beneath the circling birds And onto a floating plank he clung fast. After years passed and many a fruitful day, There, resting near the surf by an ocean lee Stands an old tombstone...
"Big, Bitter Tears..."

"People don't have any mercy. They tear you limb from limb, in the name of love. Then, when you're dead, when they've killed you by what they made you go through, they say you didn't have any character. They weep big, bitter tears - not for you. For themselves, because they've lost their toy." - James Baldwin, "Another Country"

Crooked Consulting: EY and Deloitte spruik climate on one hand, the explosion in new coal projects on the other
Luke Stacey, Michael West - 5 hours ago
Australia is ramping up a slew of new coal projects just as global demand for coal is in retreat. It’s justified by dodgy “independent expert” reports from the likes of Big Four firms Deloitte and EY. Luke Stacey and Michael West report on the flawed economics of overpaid government consultants which justifies the rush to produce new coal despite a coal market in decline.

"The UFO/Fed Connection"
CoyotePrime, Running 'Cause I Can't Fly 2 - 5 hours ago
*"The UFO/Fed Connection"* by Charles Hugh Smith "You've probably noticed the recent uptick in UFO sightings and video recordings from aircraft of the extraordinary flight paths of these unidentified objects. Perhaps it's not coincidence that UFO sightings are soaring at the same time as central banks pursue unprecedented monetary policies. Imagine having the power to destroy an entire planet's economy with a weapon that leaves the inhabitants and physical structures intact but vaporizes all the money. This weapon would be a monetary neutron bomb that crippled the planet with intan...
This is the age of Shiva.
Bob Dinn, balance10 - 6 hours ago
In days gone by on Atlantis I kept the fire burning on the altar of a temple of healing love, and into that temple came many of the children of God who walk the Earth today. We were a sisterhood of devotees to the flame of Mother, come down by the tradition of priests and priestesses of sacred fire who tended the altars of the Mother on Lemuria. I saw then also in the last days of that period that there came false teachers who saw that the way to tear from children of God the light of holy purpose, the inner vow and inner dedication was to offer unto them as baubles and t...
One Abysmal Year of Keir
Phil, All That Is Solid ... - 6 hours ago
A full year since Labour returned to the mean and elected a man in a nice suit. Looking back at the occasion, this blog met Keir Starmer's election with a bouquet of scepticism. The power grabs and rolling back of internal democracy, a default to the bourgeois common sense of politics, a load of dishonest but politically convenient hand wringing over antisemitism - despite the leak of *that report*. As I wrote of the left's relationship to the new leadership, "We're going to have to live with someone whose first instinct is to praise the government when they're doing well, and keep ...
Dispatch to the US Military: a Time has Arrived to Say Enough and Turn to a 1776 Solution
Teodrose Fikremariam, null - 1 day ago
I’m writing this to the brave men and women of the US military, the few and the proud who put on the uniform to protect this nation from internal and external enemies. A time has come to defy immoral orders and to stand up to tyranny before the experiment in self-governance is aborted and turned … Continue reading "Dispatch to the US Military: a Time has Arrived to Say Enough and Turn to a 1776 Solution"
Turkey Now Using Armed Drones Against Kurds In Iraq

*The Guardian:* *Kurds in 'mountain prison' cower as Turkey fights PKK with drones in Iraq * *As decades-old battle intensifies, civilians count cost in lives and livelihoods* It took 10 days to find Muhsin Speri’s body. The 64-year-old had left his town in the mountains of Iraqi Kurdistan along with friends Hassan Sadiq and Safar Sini on a dry, windy day in December last year to fish and forage for wild honey and mushrooms. Life in the Amedi region of the Zagros mountains is hard and physical, but the area has been home to Kurdish and Assyrian communities in sync with the rhyt...

The Fear of Nationalism in Germany Is Killing Its People
Rainer Zitelmann, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Rainer Zitelmann* *Security, Europe* In the refugee crisis—as in the coronavirus pandemic—the relationship between German politicians and the nation has been a major cause of failure. At the beginning of the coronavirus crisis, it seemed as if Germany was coping better than the United Kingdom, the United States and many other countries. In recent months, the exact opposite has been the case: the United States and the UK have two of the world’s most successful vaccination campaigns while Germany lags far behind. The deeper reason for Germany’s failings is its dysfunctional relati...
Why Climate Panic Is Unfounded Hysteria
Todd Royal, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Todd Royal* *Security, Americas* The weather and climate are dynamic and ever-changing. Thus, this hysteria is a giant ploy to deprive people of freedom and liberty instead of providing them with affordable and flexible energy. China is currently building more coal-fired power plants than the entire U.S. fleet. On Joe Biden’s first day in office, he canceled the Keystone Pipeline to assuage environmentalists who helped get him controversially elected. This means nothing for carbon outputs or emissions since the amount of coal being spewed by China plus what’s under construction ...
Renewable Energy In The U.S. Military: Creating A Lean Mean Green Warfighting Machine
James Grant, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*James Grant* *Security, Americas* The country must be prepared to face the unpredictable threats of climate change along with leading the effort to decrease the emission of greenhouse gasses that exacerbate those threats. The Defense Department has both the largest share of the federal discretionary budget and the highest energy consumption of any single organization in the country. With President Joe Biden stating an intent to shift spending away from “legacy systems that won’t be relevant” to “smart investments in technologies and innovation,” his administration can achieve t...
