Down With The Pootriarchy
The New York Times has published an article that discovers a new cause for feminist maniacs to rage against. I sometime think the Times has pieces like this all loaded up in the chamber, ready to crap them out when they need to divert the story away from *their last shit-the-bed moment.* we regret to inform you the NYT is at it again pic.twitter.com/WGlH3iKdy0 — Seth Mandel (@SethAMandel) September 17, 2019 Apparently the same thing that happens in their newsrooms.

World News Briefs -- September 17, 2019 (Evening Edition)
*Reuters:* *Saudi oil attacks came from southwest Iran, U.S. official says, raising tensions* WASHINGTON/DUBAI (Reuters) - The United States believes the attacks that crippled Saudi Arabian oil facilities last weekend originated in southwestern Iran, a U.S. official told Reuters on Tuesday, an assessment that further increases tension in the Middle East.

A nice birthday week
Today my friend of 45 years, Nancy, and I went out for lunch at the OSU Golf Club, and I’d had a hair cut and style with Melissa earlier, so I felt good. We both had the quiche. Our condo association had Monday and Tuesday set aside for drive way/street resurfacing, so we’d all been doing a little extra walking, since everyone’s cars were parked in the parking lot of the church next door. Fortunately, the weather was bright and sunny, and except for wet shoes in the morning, it all went well. I'd been carrying 2 Barnes & Noble gift cards in my purse for a year, so today I stopp... more »
Equity for Muslims
I received a notice today that OSU is having a "health equity" lecture on care of Muslim patients. Usually when liberals use the term "equity" they are discussing oppressed or low income groups, but according to Pew Research American Muslims have a higher education level than Methodists, Presbyterians, Lutherans, Adventists, Baptists and Catholics, and we're told that education translates to income. So what inequity will be discussed? FGM perhaps? And isn't that a cultural/religious issue? Pork on hospital menus? How women are gowned or how hygiene standards are kept by Muslim sta... more »

Dr. Meryl Nass: Why are Legislatures Imposing Vaccine Mandates Now?
I am a veteran of the vaccine war in the US, and today I feel compelled to speak about what I saw in that war. Legislators were forced to change their votes to revoke vaccine exemptions and rescind the historic right to consent to medical procedures. The vaccine war is a dirty war, in which platitudes about protecting the most vulnerable are invoked by the same pharmaceutical companies that paid $2.7 billion in criminal penalties in the US between 2012 and 2015. The vaccine industry generates enormous profits (estimated 10-40%), benefits from a government-guaranteed market, and re... more »

Yes, South Korea's Army Still Uses Old Russian T-80 Tanks

Kuzmin - http://vitalykuzmin.net/?q=node/297, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=19908665] Are they still good? *Key point:* This tanks are relics but have served well. One of the great ironies of the military balance in the Koreas is the fact that South Korea operates more advanced Russian tanks than North Korea. This situation came about in the 1990s after Russia inherited a $1.5 billion debt to South Korea. A deal was made: Russia would give many items of then top-of-the-line military equipment, in... more »

Check Out These 3 Insane Cold War Tanks That Were Never Mass Produced
*Charlie Gao* *Security, Americas* [image: By Raymond Douglas Veydt, CC BY-SA 3.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=18421951] Pretty weird. *Key point:* During the Cold War a large number of strange ideas were put forward as each superpower tried to out-do the other. The United States fielded a pretty standard lineup of tanks during the Cold War. First came the Patton line, which evolved in a pretty straightforward fashion from the M47 to the M60 with a few deviations such as the M60A2 Starship. Then came the Abrams, which serves on to this day. But American desig... more »

Is a U.S. attack on Iran imminent? DOD *Mark Cancian, Forbes*:* Five Options For A U.S. Military Response To Iran* The United States is “locked and loaded” to attack Iran in response to its alleged attacks on Saudi oil facilities last week, according to President Trump. How might the United States carry out such an attack? Here are five options that range from defensive to an extended air campaign. These options come from actions presidents have taken in similar situations in the past. Of course, diplomats are working to find a solution, and the president is saying that “he does no... more »
