Bear Attacks man who provoked it - Metaphor for the West vs Russia?
*Young bear in the woods* * minding his own business* Darwin Award wannabe? Russian man films himself shoving bear, gets bitten The guy in this short video that I found on RT reminds me of some "leaders" in the West, particularly Justin Trudeau and perennially "outgoing" UK PM Teresa May, who can't resist the urge to "poke the bear". The cameraman walks after the beast and either kicks or shoves the animal. The bear is seen somewhat bewildered and takes a few seconds before growling and going after his attacker. Seconds later, the man picks up the phone and says in Russian: *“It b... more »

Kentucky voters also want to shrink the federal government and reduce taxes. They're idiots who don't know how good they have... more »

We've Won The War On Smoking, Obesity Will Soon Be The Top Lifestyle Killer
Though Europe and Asia still smoke far more cigarettes than intelligent people should, and therefore cancer rates due to that will stay high for another 20 years or more, the clear trend in lifestyle diseases is obesity-related ones. That is actually a win, and far better than the bleak Population Bomb promoted by people like John Holdren and Paul Ehrlich just a few decades ago. Though there is still famine in parts of the world, they are parts of the world where groups opposed to science can manipulate people who don't trust outsiders or understand the technology, no differently th... more »
So Long Antibodies, Welcome Frankenbody
Our bodies can deploy biomolecules to find, tag and destroy invading pathogens. They work by binding to specific targets, called epitopes, on the surfaces of antigens - like locks to keys. This selective tagging mechanism in natural antibodies has been valuable in engineering antibody-based probes that let them purify and study different types of proteins within cells. One technique, epitope tagging, involves fusing an epitope to a protein of interest and using fluorescently labeled antibodies to make those proteins visible - but only in fixed, dead cells. read more

Pause For Thought (a post without links)
The BBC says that it's impartial, but large numbers of people simply don't believe it. The BBC knows that it's impartial. Many people know that it's not. So who's to judge if the BBC is impartial or not? And how is the BBC's impartiality (or lack of it) to be judged? In the past, the BBC was largely its own judge, but - after some strong challenges in the mid 2000s (over its Israel and EU coverage, among other things) - it very briefly instituted counting-style checks. It then just-as-swiftly dropped such checks for being "unhelpful". The BBC then stated that it trusted its ow... more »
When The Wall Of Separation Comes Down
As noted earlier this week, the Supreme Court has decided to hear a case that could blow a hole in the wall separating religion from public schools.

Trump In A Box: Iran Demands Right To Enrich 'To Any Level'
President Trump's withdrawal from the Iran deal continues to backfire, as he is discovering that the other side can also exert "maximum pressure."

Where will this lead? Watch today's Liberty Report:

Bad Weather Leads To Decline In Iraq’s June Oil Exports
(Getty) Bad weather in the southern province of Basra led to a decline in oil exports in June. That combined with a drop in prices led to a large decline in revenue for Iraq. Iraq exported 3.52 million barrels a day of oil in June. That was down from 3.572 million barrels in May. Exports had been climbing since March, but bad weather meant that ships couldn't dock in the southern ports. That made the flow of oil through Basra go from May’s 3.441 million barrels to 3.39 million in June. Iraq is supposed to be following a new production quota set by OPEC to raise prices, but Iraq ha... more »

Photo: Gregory Varnum/Wikimedia The U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington ordered the government to provide bond hearings to asylum seekers who were apprehended crossing the border irregularly and whose asylum claims were found viable by an asylum officer, temporarily halting a directive from Attorney General William Barr that would have denied these persons hearings where they can seek release from imprisonment.

No, Iran is Not Sprinting Toward a Nuclear Bomb
*Mary Kaszynski* *Security, Middle East* [image: Reuters] Iran recently breached a minor limit of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action nuclear deal, stockpiling low enriched uranium beyond the permitted three-hundred-kilograms limit. This is a small, reversible step, and not a significant danger to the United States. Iran’s breach of the nuclear accord was more message than threat. Iran is not sprinting for a bomb, nor does it want a war. But National Security Advisor John Bolton does. Iran’s recent actions have played right into Bolton’s hand, increasing the risk of war.

100 Years After Versailles: America’s Century of Internationalism
*Peter Harris* *History, Americas* [image: Reuters] This is the legacy of Versailles for U.S. foreign policy: a revolving door of internationalists to alternately push the country in the direction of multilateralism versus unilateralism, militarism or restraint, but always internationalism and order-building of one sort or another. It is one hundred years since the Treaty of Versailles was signed to bring about the end of World War I. In the popular imagination, the treaty is often remembered as a failed attempt to foster a stable world order in the wake of one of the bloodiest ... more »

The Heckler and Koch P30 Gun: A Pistol That Should Be Feared?
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * We can answer that. In the mid-2000s, German arms manufacturer Heckler and Koch introduced a new generation of pistols designed for self-defense and law enforcement markets. The HK45 was chambered in .45 ACP while the HK30 is chambered for the more internationally common nine-millimeter caliber. The result is a pistol that is popular among European police forces for its reliability and one gaining favor in the United States, particularly among the company’s many North American fans. In the mid-2000s, the U.S. Army took the lead on procuring a new han... more »
