Only a wave good sweep garbage like those two worthless conservatives into the Senate. And Schumer is counting on just that. On the other hand, Schumer has worked hard to successfully recruit the most electable Democrat in Tennessee for a seat few thought the Democrats had any chance to win: popular and well-respected former governor, Phil Bredesen.

US Special Forces: time for their own Pearl Harbor moment?

Peter at Bayou Renaissance Man - 13 hours ago

The consequences of such neglect were also visible in the accidents suffered by several US Navy Seventh Fleet warships over the past year, and the removal of several senior and Flag officers as a result. However, not everyone is familiar with the devastating critique of US Special Forces that was released about ten da... more »

This caused a large controversy within the Defense Department, which spilled over to the rest of the administration and ex-military men as well.

The architecture that beat humans at the notoriously CPU-impervious game Go, AlphaGo by Google Deep Mind, was converted to allow the machine to tackle other "closed-rules" games. Successively, the program was given the rules of chess, and a huge battery of Google's GPUs to train itself on the game. Within four hours, the alien emerged.

The viral load remains poorly understood, let alone its consequences. After all we are only just finally understanding what all those microbes in our gut are doing. Yet this is a sector truly in need of deeper understanding. The best defense though and it needs to be perfected, is simply operating the body at our proper operating temperature. I must admit it is common to sleep at a slightly cooler level than this. Actually allowing our bodies to sleep at the full level if that can be possible will surely suppress that viral load.

Religion: The Koran (Qur'an)

arclein at Terra Forming Terra - 20 hours ago
The Koran is an excellent example of channeling from the other side. It includes the natural dangers of the channeling process and is reflected in the fluidity observed during Mohamed's lifetime. We have observed this phenomena in many other cases. Because it is impossible to confirm identity of the spirit source unless it is called by name and that was not happening here, the door is open for other spirits interpolating material at odds with the intentions of the prime spiritual sources. We normally overcome this problem with critical analysis applying logical rigor. This has... more »

British IS fighters 'should not be allowed back into the UK' per BBC News

Not a sheep at Not a sheep - 21 hours ago
'No British citizen who has fought for so-called Islamic State should be allowed back into the country, the defence secretary has said. In an interview with the Daily Mail, Gavin Williamson said: "Quite simply, my view is a dead terrorist can't cause any harm to Britain."' Hard to argue with that?
