Flying routine flight paths and using routine radio frequencies, they looked to Arab radar operators like the normal morning Israeli combat air patrol. At 7:15 a.m., another 183 aircraft—almost the entire Israeli combat fleet—roared into the air. They headed west over the Mediterranean before diving low, which dropped them from Arab radar screens.... more »

Since its first nuclear test in 1964, China has maintained a relatively small nuclear arsenal designed to hold adversaries’ population centers at risk. Even as it has modernized its conventional forces to “fight and win wars” against first-class militaries like that of the United States, China’s nuclear arsenal is estimated to contain just 264... more »

Does changing style of hair or dress help black people avoid stigma?
David Crockett, Associate Professor of Marketing, University of South Carolina at Politics + Society – The Conversation - 9 hours ago
On the eve of the NBA Finals, superstar LeBron James found the “N-word” spray painted on his home. Not even James, with all his wealth, fame and success, is exempt from being attacked with classic racist slurs. In the United States, blackness is stamped with centuries-old images and ideas that assign it to perpetual “last place.” One way blacks have historically responded to stigma – a discredited or disgraced identity – is by displaying what they understand as mainstream values associated with white elites. This strategy, often referred to as “respectability,” is intended to put ... more »

Donald Trump may literally have pulled out of the Paris climate change accords in order to get back at the French Prime Minister for mocking him over a handshake.
The Washington Post has up an article that goes into great detail in explaining all of the advice, both pro and con, that Trump received before finally deciding to pull America's support out of the Paris deal. However buried at the very bottom are these four paragraphs: *If he needed a nudge, though, one came from France over the weekend.

The 5 Biggest and Baddest Navies Sailing the Seas Today
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * Did Amercia make the cut? What about Russia? It’s a universal truth handed down since antiquity: a country with a coastline has a navy. Big or small, navies worldwide have the same basic mission—to project military might into neighboring waters and beyond. The peacetime role of navies has been more or less the same for thousands of years. Navies protect the homeland, keep shipping routes and lines of communication open, show the flag and deter adversaries. In wartime, a navy projects naval power in order to deny the enemy the ability to do the same. ... more »
