The Hyena With A Fountain PenJean-Paul Sartre admired the Soviet Union, while Albert Camus despised it. In 1950, when North Korea, backed by the Soviet Union and China, invaded South Korea, Camus said to Sartre: “What will happen to you when the Russians invade France? Perhaps the hyena with a fountain pen would not be allowed to have the last laugh?” Stalin’s cultural commissar, Alexander Fadayev, had earlier called Sartre, “a jackal with a typewriter, a hyena with a fountain pen.” read more

Sanity Returns to Governance. Left Hardest Hit.Election integrity is now LAW in Texas.

The H-4 only Flew Once, but Left a Herculean Mark on History*Sebastien Roblin* *H-4 Hercules, Americas* The H-4 Hercules has never been beat in wingspan length. *Here's What You Need To Remember: * Despite its exceptionally brief flight career, Spruce Goose helped pioneer aviation design technologies, some of which appeared in later aircraft that were longer and/or heavier, such as the 747 Jumbo jet, the Antonov An-124, and the C-5 Galaxy. For every legendary airplane like the F-16 Viper or Il-2 Shturmovik that sees large-scale production, history is littered with dozens of promising projects that burned through budgets and deadlines on... read more

"A Look to the Heavens"
"Some spiral galaxies are seen nearly sideways. Most bright stars in spiral galaxies swirl around the center in a disk, and seen from the side, this disk can appear quite thin. Some spiral galaxies appear even thinner than NGC 3717, which is actually seen tilted just a bit. Spiral galaxies form disks because the original gas collided with itself and cooled as it fell inward. Planets may orbit in disks for similar reasons. The featured image by the Hubble Space Telescope shows a light-colored central bulge composed of older stars beyond filaments of orbiting dark brown dust. NGC 3717 ... read more

IN ORDER TO BE A ZOMBIE, DON'T YOU HAVE TO BE DEAD FIRST?I agree with the point Greg Sargent makes in this post, but I don't agree with the way he frames it: If there is one thing that might get Democratic voters to take state-level races more seriously, it’s the Zombie Trumpism that continues to afflict GOP governors. In states where covid-19 cases are surging, they steadfastly refuse to take the virus seriously enough, and some are actively thwarting local efforts to combat it, a state of derangement that refuses to die. This is why we should pay close attention to the Virginia gubernatorial contest.... The Democratic candidate, Terry... read more

Yes, it’s Tennyson’s “Lady of Shalott,” from the poem of 1842, here illustrated by John William Waterhouse in 1888. By some unspecified curse this lovely maiden was confined to a tower… “Willows whiten, aspens quiver, Little breezes dusk and shiver Through the wave that runs for ever By the island in the river” …near Camelot, where, forbidden to look out the window, she observed the world in a mirror and wove what she saw into a tapestry.

Chicago Police Pension on the Verge of Bankruptcy?
Forbes contributing columnist Elizabeth Bauer (aka Jane the Actuary) reports on how a recent Chicago police pension forensic audit uncovered gross mismanagement which compounded underfunding: Readers, when I first read that retirees and employees in the Chicago Police pension system were pursuing a “forensic audit,” that seemed like nothing more than wishful thinking. It seemed plainly obvious that the plan’s massive underfunding was explained by the lack of a commitment to fund the plan properly, and by years of delusion that future favorable investment returns would solve the pl... read more

Proud to be a boy!
(By Cyril Blubberpuss, Conservative-American) Well, at least, in spirit. Let's face it- none of us stay young forever, at least those of us whose names aren't Paul Rudd. But that's not to say one cannot be young in spirit, if not in the flesh. Case in point, my kid brother, Cecil. Cecil's coming up on 55 and, let's face facts, he's starting to lose that boyish figure and baby face that's been prominently featured for decades on boards at Boys and Girls Clubs and private boy's schools all over the greater Manhattan area. Now, while it is true that Cecil remains stren... read more
