The man, identified only as Peng ... reportedly developed a habit of sniffing his socks each day after work.

Initially, doctors at Zhangzhou's 909 Hospital suspected that Peng, 37, had pneumonia. But when his symptoms persisted, doctors re-questioned the man a... more »

*Be Careful What You Wish For* The National Bolivarian Militia is a reserve force composed of civilian volunteers, founded by former President Hugo Chavez in 2008 to assist the armed forces. Cuba helps pay for the force since the The Bolivarian Militia is a gimmick to ensure popular loyalty. Venezuela might have the guns to arm a militia of this size, but no sane leader would entrust the members with ammunition. Is it time for the US to air drop small arms ammunition to the militia? Give Maduro what he wants? Venezuelan President Maduro tripled the militia in size. Yesterday he sai... more »

He was impressed by the violent tactics that the French jacobins had used to achieve their political aims. In 1915, Lenin wrote, “One cannot be a Marxist without entertaining the deepest respect for the great bourgeois revolutionaries (Rob... more »
