Can Cash-Strapped Americans Expect More Stimulus Checks in 2022?*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Stimulus Checks, United States* Congress approved two stimulus checks in 2020 and a third in 2021, but there doesn't seem to be much appetite in Washington for a third.

"A Look to the Heavens"
“Why is the sky near Antares and Rho Ophiuchi so colorful? The colors result from a mixture of objects and processes. Fine dust illuminated from the front by starlight produces blue reflection nebulae. Gaseous clouds whose atoms are excited by ultraviolet starlight produce reddish emission nebulae. Backlit dust clouds block starlight and so appear dark. Antares, a red supergiant and one of the brighter stars in the night sky, lights up the yellow-red clouds on the lower center. Rho Ophiuchi lies at the center of the blue nebula near the top. The distant globular cluster M4 is visible... read more

Endless War Is The Empire’s Last DanceThis moment of history will be remembered for the massive shift in global relations currently underway. On one side stands the forces of peace and multipolarity led by China, Russia, and their allies in the Global South.

World politics have transitioned from a war between socialism and capitalism to a protracted struggle for the survival of humanity itself. The forces of Empire have rea... read more
