Republicans Deserve The Blame They Get-- But There Are Still 25 House Dems-- Led By DCCC Chair Cheri Bustos-- Who Refuse To Back An Assault Weapons Ban
Three freshmen members of Congress who no one in their right mind will ever accuse of being courageous are Kim Schier (New Dem-WA), Elaine Luria (New Dem-VA) and Colin Allred (D-TX). Schrier's district is 72.3% suburban, the rest being about equally urban and rural. Luria's is over 95% urban and suburban; just 4.5% rural. And Allred's is 100% urban and suburban-- no rural precincts at all. On Friday Schier, Luria and Allred became the 209th, 210th and 211th members of Congress to sign on as co-sponsors to Dave Cicilline's bill to ban the sale of assault weapons, H.R. 1296.

Hyperbole to the max - but it's a very impressive knife
I came across the Dalstrong Ravenger 9" cleaver on Amazon while searching for something else. I was struck by the extraordinarily high user rating of this knife - at the time of writing, an average review of 4.8 stars by 244 respondents. Intrigued, I read some of the reviews, and they persuaded me to take the plunge and order one. We don't often need a big, heavy cleaver-type knife, but when we do, it's very useful; and although this one seemed expensive, the reviewers who raved about it made me think it might be worth its price, compared to our bargain-basement part-of-a-che... more »
Can't Buy an F-35 or a Stealth Fighter From Russia? The Gripen Will Do.
*Charlie Gao* *Security, * How good is it? KEY POINT: This amazing plane can kill--on the cheap. The JAS-39 Gripen is the Swedish defense industry’s largest export, financially. The Gripen has seen considerable success replacing aging fighters in former Warsaw Pact countries, and has also seen sales in Africa, the Americas and Asia. But why is the Gripen successful on the export market? How does it stack up against other NATO products and Russian jets? The primary European export success for the Gripen is in post-Soviet states. This is probably due to the accession of these s... more »

Alternative America
What this makes clear is that an alternate economy without black slavery would have shaken out a lot better. Do recall though that white and Indian slavery was endemic were needed until fiat currency made slavery ultimately a loser. Thus both these earlier forms of slavery simply disappeared.

The cotton trade would have nicely boomed wages throughout the agricultural hinterland throughout the nineteenth century without the 750,000 men lost to the Civil War. It wo... more »

The end of dental fillings: Scientists create a material that could help you regrow enamel naturally
This will likely arrive quickly. the bottom line is particle size and a clean working surface. cleaning up the cavity can be easily enough done and then applying a layer of starter is simple enough. Applying a cap is also simple with a foam pad to secure the starter layer. Then return in say five days to reopen and to apply an additional layer. this also interdicts any new infections as well. All this work can be done quickly by dental technicians once the original cavity has been cleansed up. Thus it may take several trips to fully restore a set of damaged teeth but that is ob... more »
