Never mind just one independent Presidential candidate - how about a dozen?

Peter at Bayou Renaissance Man - 17 hours ago
I was pleasantly surprised to learn this weekend that former Starbucks executive chairman Howard Schulz is considering running for the office of President of the United States in 2020 - *as an independent*. The news has sparked concern among Democrats, who fear such a step might divide the progressive/liberal vote and ensure another four year term for President Trump. However, I think that's a short-sighted perspective. The problem at present is *precisely* that the two major political parties have made it almost impossible for *any* candidate outside their ranks to succeed in be... more »

On The Importance of Philosophical Differences

Anoop Verma at The Verma Report - 18 hours ago
The task of a philosopher is to grapple with the “big questions” regarding mankind, the universe, and mankind's place in the universe. But as the information available is not sufficient, the philosophers have to conjecture, rationally as far as possible, by taking into account their personal experiences, and philosophize about the possible answers. The experiences of the philosophers are bound to be different, because no two human beings can have exposure to the same historical, political, cultural, and economic circumstances. They may possess contrasting information on the same su... more »

Why Russia Loves Its 57-Millimeter Cannon (It Could Take On a Tank)

*Michael Peck* *Security, Europe* [image: By User:VargaA - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=11172005] Should NATO be worried? During World War II, the Soviet Union fielded 57-millimeter anti-tank guns towed on wheels or mounted on armored chassis. After the war, the Soviets built the ZSU-57-2, a self-propelled anti-aircraft gun, or SPAAG, mounting dual 57-millimeter rapid-fire cannon on a T-54 tank chassis.

This concept is badly needed in the far north for sure, but also almost everywhere else as well using sun blockage. What is important is that you have a closed envelop of air that massively insulates and also moves heat around as well. Thus the inner shell and structure can be hugely minimized.
