OSU researcher under investigation corrects paper cited 500 times

Alison McCook at Retraction Watch - 13 hours ago
An EMBO journal has issued a well-cited correction for a 2012 review co-authored by a cancer researcher under investigation. Carlo Croce, the last author on the review, has been beleaguered by misconduct accusations that have followed him for years (recently described in a lengthy article in the New York Times), and his university has recently re-opened […] The post OSU researcher under investigation corrects paper cited 500 times appeared first on Retraction Watch.

For some reason Donald Trump believes that the testimony of James Comey vindicated him.

Despite so many false statements and lies, total and complete vindication...and WOW, Comey is a leaker! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 9, 2017 Okay well I watched all of that testimony yesterday and what I heard is that Trump tried to bully Comey into dropping his investigation against Michael Flynn, that Trump is a liar who cannot be trusted, and that Comey is convinced that he was fired in order to end the Russian investigations. And THAT by the way seems to be what most people heard as well. Subdued. pic.twitter.com/VoPReaxsnE — Andrew Katz (@katz) June 8, 2017 Besid... more »

Calling Doctor Freud

Karen Garcia at Sardonicky - 13 hours ago
My biggest "takeaway" (I do hate that word) from James Comey's testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee is that Donald Trump equates being president with being the CEO of the biggest corporation in the world. Either that, or his demand for "loyalty" from the FBI director shows that he equates being president with being the godfather of the global mafia. And in a perverse sort of way, Trump would be absolutely right about both job descriptions. His problem is that he doesn't stay in his proper place. Presidents have heretofore acted as super-salesmen and propagandists for ... more »

Mosul Campaign Day 235 Jun 8 2017

Joel Wing at MUSINGS ON IRAQ - 13 hours ago
The major fighting in Mosul remained in the Zinjalineighborhood in the center of the city. The army, police and Golden Division are all involved. The Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) were originally overly optimistic claiming it could clear Zinjali, Shifa and Saha by June 1. The last one is the only one that has been liberated so far, and that was on June 2. The Iraqi forces are constantly claiming that victory is around the corner as part of its propaganda campaign. Others predicted that this final battle would be the toughest so far and that is proving true. The Associated Presshad a... more »

In June 1987, 30 years ago this month, President Ronald Reagan took his freedom offensive to Berlin where he directly challenged the Kremlin, proclaiming, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” The president’s blunt words were a telling contrast to John F. Kennedy’s emotional declaration a quarter of a century earlier, “Ich bin ein Berliner,” which thrilled the people of West Berlin but was ignored by Soviet leaders who remembere... more »

Admittedly, I did not pay strict attention as I was flitting about the internet while Comey droned on about his "feelings." He "felt" Trump may not be honest. He "thought" he had to document his discussions with Trump to protect himself and the FBI.

Why Did the Pundits Get the Election Wrong?

What an amazing night. We'd had hints from the YouGov and Survation polls that things were going to be close, but even those who allowed a few meagre rays of hope into their hearts were haunted by the memories of so many times the pollsters were wrong. And not forgetting that a good chunk of polling opinion still indicated the Tories could look forward to commanding a thumping majority in the House. There are so many things that can be written about the 2017 general election, but more on trying to understand the return of two-party politics, the battering the SNP t... more »

jurassicpork at Welcome Back to Gotham City - 14 hours ago
OK, so let me get this straight: The former Director of the FBI called the President a liar on national television, said he took detailed notes on his meetings with Trump because he thought he would lie about those meetings. Then today Trump claims Comey gave him "total and complete vindication." John McCain then asks Comey during the hearing about the Trump-Russia investigation about... Hillary Clinton's emails. Then repeats the question to Comey in written form. Theresa May attempted a power grab by ordering a snap election, thinking her Tories would win 100... more »

Indeed, many wars do not “end” in the traditional sense; World War II, for example, stretched on for years in parts of Eastern Europe and the Asia-Pacific. Even as the guns fell silent along the Western Front in 1918, the United States and the United Kingdom began jockeying for position.
