X-Zone Broadcast Network - Fallout from February 27, 2019
Over the last several days some of my colleagues have suggested that I was overly harsh in my interview with Christopher Montgomery. They seemed to think that my challenging of his statements and pressing him on his lack of response to some of my questions was too mean. I should have toned down the rhetoric. I say, “Crapola.” The interview was inspired after I learned that he had told Rob McConnell on his X-Zone radio show that, “…he’s [Randle] written books about UFOs and yet you can find red herrings in his book too. For example, he believes that the aliens recovered at Roswell w... more »

Secret Stealth Killer?: How China Could Try and Kill an F-22 Raptor
*Dave Majumdar* *Security, * Quantum radar. *“A quantum radar, generating a large number of entangled photon pairs and shooting one twin into the air, would be capable of receiving critical information about a target, including its shape, location, speed, temperature and even the chemical composition of its paint, from returning photons.”* Could Beijing’s quantum radar technology render stealth aircraft obsolete? *(This first appeared back in 2017.)* While theoretically, if such a radar existed, it would be able to detect and track stealth aircraft with impunity, but it is unc... more »
As Newspapers Close, Role of Government Watchdog Disappears
Newspapers are closing or being consolidated at an astounding rate, often leaving behind what researchers label as news deserts — towns and even entire counties that have no consistent local media coverage.
Breaking Up The Digital Monopolies
For a second day in a row, I return to the opinions of Robert Reich. It's time, he writes, to break up the digital trusts. One hundred years ago, The first Gilded Age produced giant economic monopolies: America’s first Gilded Age began in the late 19th century with a raft of innovations – railroads, steel production, oil extraction – but culminated in mammoth trusts run by “robber barons” like JP Morgan, John D Rockefeller, and William H “the public be damned” Vanderbilt. The answer then was to bust up the railroad, oil and steel monopolies. Unfortunately, history has repeated i... more »

SITREP Syria:Kurds Declare Their Region, No Date For Withdawal, Ally Ultimatum

As had always been the plan: No one can be surprised about this latest move. No one!* *“Syrian Kurds unilaterally declared the creation of a federal region in northeastern Syria on Thursday, raising fears of an accelerating disintegration of Syria along ethnic and sectarian lines and complicating efforts to find a peaceful solution to the Syrian crisis.”The recognition “came at the end of a two-day meeting in the northeastern Sy... more »
Nazi occupation of Czechia: 80th anniversary
Next week, Czechs will commemorate the 80th anniversary of the "dealing with the rest of Czechia" ("Erledigung der Rest-Tschechei"; yes, that terminology was intentionally picked to be degrading but Czechs have no problem with the word "Tschechei" although Germans typically think that the PC "Tschechien" is mandatory – for us, they're just synonyms) by Nazi Germany. On March 14th, 1939, softcore Slovak clerofascists and anti-Prague nationalists, energized by their influential hardcore German friend, declared the independence and broke Czecho-Slovakia – which had already been broken ... more »

*Fourth Grader In Tears After Teacher FORCES Boy To Wash Off Cross – On Ash Wednesday* Imagine if this fourth-grade boy was anything other than Christian. Would his teacher have forced him to wash off a religious symbol? That was probably rhetorical. From New York Post: SALT LAKE CITY — A teacher in the predominantly Mormon state of Utah was placed on administrative leave after she forced a Catholic student to wash off the Ash Wednesday cross from his forehead. William McLeod, 9, had just returned to his school near Salt Lake City after attending Catholic Mass when his fourth-gra... more »
"The Art of Winning An Argument"
*"The Art of Winning An Argument"* by Farnam Street "We spend a lot of our lives trying to convince or persuade others to our point of view. This is one of the reasons that Daniel Pink says that we’re all in sales: "Some of you, no doubt, are selling in the literal sense - convincing existing customers and fresh prospects to buy casualty insurance or consulting services or homemade pies at a farmers’ market. But all of you are likely spending more time than you realize selling in a broader sense - pitching colleagues, persuading funders, cajoling kids. Like it or not, we’re all in ... more »

*Green Land Grabs on Steroids – Using Bees So Gov’t Can Take More Land* Green groups want to use bees to block human activities on land 15 times bigger than Virginia – or even more. Special interest environmental groups got stung recently by an 8-0 U.S. Supreme Court opinion that held private landowners cannot be compelled to forego future economic uses of their property and at their own expense convert their land into suitable habitat for an endangered frog. Now radical greens are eyeing even bigger land grabs. The Natural Resources Defense Council has sued the Department of the... more »

A Broken System?
Recent events and reports have made it clear that our system of governance has some major flaws in it as it currently operates, whist efforts to improve the way we elect our representatives have failed it is becoming increasing obvious that those we do elect have very little power to effect outcomes. I will not try to dissect the current cluster fk that is occurring in the seat of power, ably assisted by much over the top 'reporting' and 'opinion pieces' from various sources on line and off but will comment upon what I view as what is perhaps the root of the problem. We all know tha... more »
“Make Room For Me Up On That Cloud”
Our secular society seems to believe that if an afterlife exists, it is a uniformly pleasant one, and that with the possible exception of mass murderers, Nazis, child-molesters and a few others who commit monstrous deeds, everyone goes to heaven after they die. The technical and theological term for this […] The post “Make Room For Me Up On That Cloud” appeared first on OrientalReview.org.
Comparisons and Contrasts
Compare and contrast... First came John McDonnell: *Andrew Marr*: Let me ask you about one other thing that happened this week. The Equality and Human Rights Commission announced that it was thinking of investigating the Labour Party into antisemitism. Would you welcome that investigation? *John McDonnell*: Yes, and let's get on with it now because I think we...One, I'm hoping we'll get a clean bill of health about how we're handling things. If there's issues that the EHRC can advise us on I welcome that, because I want us to be a shining example of how you tackle issues like ... more »
