FBI Is Recklessly Misusing Trump-Era Espionage Policy To Create ‘Climate Of Fear’ Among Scientists
On the Tuesday before Christmas, Dr. Charles Lieber, the former chair of Harvard’s Chemistry and Chemical Biology Department, was convicted by a federal jury of lying to the U.S. about his involvement with China’s government and failing to disclose income from China on his tax returns.

Lieber had been prosecuted as part of the Justice Department’s China Initiative, which was established in 2018 to crackdown on Chinese economic and scientific espionage.

The United States has averaged a thousand people a day dying from COVID since August and the total number of lives lost is approaching a million.

Labor journalist and NewsGuild organizer Chris Brooks sat down with a group of New York City nurses and teachers to talk about how the institutions they work for are collapsing and what labor activists can do a... read more

THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE (updated)
Sorry, Politico, I'm not buying this: *GOP shudders at Trump Jan. 6 speech* Senate Republicans are cringing at former President Donald Trump's plans to speak on Jan. 6, openly fretting he's trying to pull their party back into debating his false election claims. “I don't think that's a good idea,” said Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.). “I guess it depends on what he's going to say. But early assumptions are that it's going to be an aggressive statement.

The Absence of Government Is Not Freedom
I have considerable sympathy for Libertarians. Maybe it's my New Hampshire roots, but I don't have limitless faith in government's ability to do stuff well. But Libertarians and the Free Market crowd are, I think, critically wrong in one respect. The argument is that removing government and its ability to impose its will by force would bring about greater freedom, that the playing field would be level if not for the heavy hand of government regulation. But the absence of one source of power simply advantages other sources of power. With government, but even more so without, your a... read more

Mysterious Honey Discovered That Kills All Bacteria Scientists Throw At It

The War On Terror Is A Success — For Terror
It began more than two decades ago. On September 20, 2001, President George W. Bush declared a “war on terror” and told a joint session of Congress (and the American people) that “the course of this conflict is not known, yet its outcome is certain.” If he meant a 20-year slide to defeat in Afghanistan, a proliferation of militant groups across the Greater Middle East and Africa, and a never-ending, world-spanning war that, at a minimum, has killed about 300 times the number of people murdered in America on 9/11, then give him credit.

NBC News Uses Ex-FBI Official Frank Figliuzzi To Urge Assange’s Extradition

What Can A 1970s Farmers’ Uprising Against An Energy Transition Teach Us?
If the United States is to make a transition to clean energy, it will need to build many more transmission lines—the thick wires that deliver power from rural areas, where there’s enough open space for wind and solar, to cities where the most power is consumed. But the process of building those lines is likely to be fraught with conflict and delays, because people in rural and suburban communities often don’t want to see wires and tall metal towers in their backyards. Clean energy advocates say that power companies need to do more to understand what fuels public opposition and how... read more

In Severe Scoliosis, Growth-Friendly Surgeries Cause More Complications Than Single Spinal Fusion
Early-onset scoliosis is a potentially deadly curve in the spine that can damage a child’s heart and lung function as it progresses. Adolescents with scoliosis are traditionally treated with a single spinal fusion, where rods and screws are inserted to fuse the spine in a straighter position. Parents want to make informed choices and a new study finds that preadolescent children with severe neuromuscular scoliosis who are treated with growth-friendly surgery prior to spinal fusion have more complications and unplanned subsequent surgeries than those who only have the spinal fusion. ... read more

"I cannot believe that the purpose of life is to be 'happy.' I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be responsible, to be compassionate. It is, above all, to matter and to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you lived at all." - Leo C. Rosten read more

"A Look to the Heavens"
“While drifting through the cosmos, a magnificent interstellar dust cloud became sculpted by stellar winds and radiation to assume a recognizable shape. Fittingly named the Horsehead Nebula, it is embedded in the vast and complex Orion Nebula (M42). A potentially rewarding but difficult object to view personally with a small telescope, the above gorgeously detailed image was recently taken in infrared light by the orbiting Hubble Space Telescope in honor of the 23rd anniversary of Hubble's launch. The dark molecular cloud, roughly 1,500 light years distant, is cataloged as Barnard... read more

The Lancet: Assumption that the fully vaccinated can be excluded as source of transmission grossly negligent
By Günter Kampf, University of Medicine Greifswald, Germany RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – High COVID-19 vaccination rates were expected to reduce transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in populations by reducing the number of possible sources for transmission and thereby to reduce the burden of COVID-19 disease, writes Günter Kampf in The Lancet. Recent data, however, indicate that […] The post The Lancet: Assumption that the fully vaccinated can be excluded as source of transmission grossly negligent appeared first on The Rio Times. read more
Rogue Planet Discoveries Challenge Formation Models
[image: Rogue Planet Discoveries Challenge Formation Models] As we begin the New Year, I want to be sure to catch up with the recent announcement of a discovery regarding ‘rogue’ planets, those interesting worlds that orbit no central star but wander through interstellar space alone (or, conceivably, with moons). Conceivably ejected from their host stars through gravitational interactions (more on this in a moment), such planets become interstellar targets in their own right, as given the numbers now being suggested, there may be rogue planets near the Solar System. *Image*: Rogue... read more

Chet Raymo, “Try To Remember…”
*“Try To Remember…”* by Chet Raymo “In a sleepless hour of the night, I was trying to remember the last name of a person I have known well for more than forty years. When my spouse stirred in her sleep, I asked her. She couldn't remember either. One again I started mentally through the alphabet. "I think it starts with B," I said. Ten minutes later she rolled over and said, "The next letter is R." Bingo! The name popped into my head. Or I should say, "popped out of my head." Because it was in there somewhere, recorded in a tangle of neurons as materially as if it were written on a ... read more
Jake Sullivan Must Resolve Biden’s Berbera Impasse
*Michael Rubin* *Somaliland, Africa* For too long, the dispute over U.S. posture toward Somaliland has festered. The growing threat from China and uncertainty over Djibouti’s future now bring the question to a head. BERBERA, SOMALILAND—The storied Berbera International Airport is open and ready for operation. Prior to the 1960s, it was a major British station. In the mid-1970s, the Soviet Union built the airfield while Somali dictator Siad Barre was still a Soviet client. The mudbrick shells of Soviet barracks still line the southern perimeter of the airport adjacent to its acce... read more
Why North Korea Keeps Flying the MiG-19 Fighter Jet
*Caleb Larson* *North Korea, Asia* North Korea continues to use the Soviet Era MiG-19 planes *Here's What You Need to Remember: *North Korea continues to use older MiG-19 technology, and it keeps running. North Korea is one of the only countries that still maintains a fleet of J-6/MiG-19 planes. Although it was speedy for its era, it couldn’t hold its own anymore. *Better Designs: * The MiG-19 was designed to address issues that stemmed from the MiG-15 and similar MiG-17 fighters. While both fighters were capable when compared to their contemporaries, they suffered from contro... read more
Rising Oil Prices Ends Fall in Gas Prices
*Stephen Silver* *Gas Prices, * The main reason for the recent rise? Rising oil prices. After several weeks of dropping over the course of the holiday season, the average gas price in the United States ticked upward last week, according to GasBuddy. The average price is now $3.27 per gallon, a gain of 1.5 cents from a week ago. That average, however, is still down 11.1 cents from the same time the month earlier, although it’s more than a dollar more than the price this time last year. In May, the average price of gasoline rose above $3 for the first time in six years. The main ... read more

Dr. Gottlieb: Omicron Seems to Be ‘Milder Strain’ But Risks Remain

Dr. Scott Gottlieb, the former commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), has contended that the new and highly mutated Omicron variant appears to be a “milder strain” of coronavirus but dangers still remain. “There’s a very clear, as I said, decoupling between cases and hospitalizations and does appear now based o... read more

"And In That Very Way..."
"A sad fact, of course, about adult life is that you see the very things you'll never adapt to coming toward you on the horizon. You see them as the problems they are, you worry like hell about them, you make provisions, take precautions, fashion adjustments; you tell yourself you'll have to change your way of doing things. Only you don't. You can't. Somehow it's already too late. And maybe it's even worse than that: maybe the thing you see coming from far away is not the real thing, the thing that scares you, but its aftermath. And what you've feared will happen has already taken ... read more
"Are There Any Questions?"
*"Are There Any Questions?"* by Robert Fulghum "Are there any questions?" An offer that comes at the end of college lectures and long meetings. Said when an audience is not only overdosed with information, but when there is no time left anyhow. At times like that you sure do have questions. Like, "Can we leave now?" and "What the hell was this meeting for?" and "Where can I get a drink?" The gesture is supposed to indicate openness on the part of the speaker, I suppose, but if in fact you do ask a question, both the speaker and the audience will give you drop-dead looks. And some f... read more

"Not Much Mental Distance..."
“A man who has blown all his options can't afford the luxury of changing his ways. He has to capitalize on whatever he has left, and he can't afford to admit - no matter how often he's reminded of it - that every day of his life takes him farther and farther down a blind alley. Very few toads in this world are Prince Charmings in disguise. Most are simply toads, and they are going to stay that way. Toads don't make laws or change any basic structures, but one or two rooty insights can work powerful changes in the way they get through life.
