"I Wish You Enough"
"I Wish You Enough" by Bob Perks "I never really thought that I'd spend as much time in airports as I do. I don't know why. I always wanted to be famous and that would mean lots of travel. But I'm not famous, yet I do see more than my share of airports. I love them and I hate them. I love them because of the people I get to watch. But they are also the same reason why I hate airports. It all comes down to "hello" and "goodbye." I must have mentioned this a few times while writing my stories for you. I have great difficulties with saying goodbye. Even as I write this I am experienc... more »

"The Happiness Ruse"
*"The Happiness Ruse"* by Cody Delistraty "In 1920, the American psychologist John B Watson published the results of one of the more ethically dubious scholarly articles of the past century. Along with Rosalie Rayner, a 21-year-old graduate student at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, where he taught, Watson aimed to instill a specific fear in an otherwise normal baby. Until then, behavioral conditioning had been exercised solely within the animal realm, but Watson and Rayner selected a nine-month-old boy they called ‘Albert’ for their study, paid his mother a dollar, and plac... more »

The U.S. Navy Has a Crazy Plan To Build Monster (But Useless) Battleships
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * [image: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montana-class_battleship#/media/File:Montana_Class.png] Their construction was a mistake worth avoiding. *Key Point:* Bigger doesn't always mean better, or worth the cost. The U.S. Navy’s most powerful battleships were never actually built. The five *Montana*-class battleships, leviathans designed to dwarf even the giant *Iowa*-class battleships, were authorized for construction but never built, victims of the ascendance of naval aviation. Nearly as large as a modern supercarrier the *Montana*-class, like all ba... more »

REUTERS/Joshua Roberts] Here are the facts. *Key point:* Stag Arms has faced a lot of controversy, but they're clearly committed to innovation. If you’re serious about your firearms then you’ve undoubtedly heard the name Stag Arms. This Connecticut-based company has risen to the top of the heap in terms of manufacturers offering quality AR-15s. At one point, they were even manufacturing the much in-demand featureless AR-15... more »
What if a Progressive President Cut U.S. Defense Spending Dramatically?
*Robert Farley* *Security, * What would the United States need to do to significantly cut its defense budget? The question is complicated, and the answers are difficult. Although foreign policy has generally not taken center-stage in the Democratic Presidential primary thus far, some of the candidates have begun to speak out about the size and extent of the U.S. defense establishment. This discussion has come as “progressive” foreign policy thinking has become more sophisticated and forward-thinking, especially with regards to defense. Although the perspectives of the candidates... more »
This Made Hitler Mad: Why Allied Commandos Stormed Nazi-Occupied Norway to Destroy Fish Oil Factories
*Sebastien Roblin* *History, * The raid at Vågsøy was planned with an unusual target in mind: fish oil factories. The Nazis were interested less in the dietary benefits of the omega-3 fatty acids, so much as the oil’s ability to be distilled into glycerin to produce the nitroglycerine used in most high-explosive bombs and shells. And the Wehrmacht was running through a lot of bombs and shells in its war against the numerically superior Red Army. Two days after Christmas on the morning of December 27, 1941 the icy Arctic calm of the Norwegian islands of Vågsøy and Måløy was shatte... more »
The Northrop YF-23 Stealth Fighter: The Killer Jet the Air Force Said No To

The U.S. Air Force came very close to buying a rocket ship. In 1991, the Air Force selected Lockheed’s YF-22 fighter over Northrop’s YF-23 as the basis for the service’s new air-superiority fighter. That wasn’t the only major decision the Air Force made at the time. The service also selected Pratt & Whitney’s YF-119 as the engine that would power that YF-22, in the proces... more »
The Kiss Of Death
The knives are out for Andrew Scheer. When you lose an election, the people who worked for or with you get snitty. And there's lots of snit coming Scheer's way these days.

Conservative Senator Jean-Guy Dagenais recently quit his party’s caucus explicitly because of Mr. Scheer’s views. And now two former Harper advisers have teamed up with the creator of Ontario Proud and Canada Proud to start a non-profit, called Conservative Victory, wi... more »

The assessment drew sharp criticism from allies, with NATO Secretary-General Jens Stolten... more »

Why Apocalyptic Claims About Climate Change Are Wrong
By Paul Homewood Well worth a read. Environmentalist Michael Schellenberger attacks climate apocalypse claims: Environmental journalists and advocates have in recent weeks made a number of apocalyptic predictions about the impact of climate change. Bill McKibben suggested climate-driven fires in Australia had made koalas “functionally extinct.” Extinction Rebellion said “Billions will die” and “Life […]
An olive branch spurned
I am fairly new to Twitter, so as a naïve newcomer I’m perhaps excessively discouraged by a dialogueof the deaf recently begun by the following tweet by the conservative Christian writer Rod Dreher: Liberal: "You admit Trump is awful, but you're still considering voting for him over 'religious liberty.' That's so trivial, given the enormity of his badness!" Me: "If it's so trivial, then give us what we want. You'll get our votes, or at least Trump won't." Liberal: [silence] That elicited a long conversation: 94 responses within 17 hours. (Perhaps a lot of people had time on their... more »

No showmanship
As mentioned by MB, here's Andrew Marr in *The Spectator* on the question of how to interview/how not to interview: My Sunday job is to ask questions; but in this campaign there is a line of criticism of television interviewing which makes me pause. The rise of misnamed social media (mostly Twitter) makes it all too easy to clip and post ‘Gotcha!’ moments, when a politician appears to be gasping for air at a particularly pertinent question. Two or three such moments now win the wearisome accolade of ‘a car crash interview’. So (goes the criticism) interviewers are under increasin... more »
"I think there is a bias towards saying Israel is a democracy in the Middle East"
Here's (apparently) newly-found footage of Jeremy Corbyn on Iran's Press TV (naturally) talking about BBC bias and Israel: "I think there is a bias towards saying Israel is a democracy in the Middle East. That Israel has a right to exist. That Israel has its security concerns." For many Jewish people, this is the real Jeremy Corbyn. And many wish he'd just admit these are his real views. https://t.co/tUUActGj0Q — Paul Waugh (@paulwaugh) November 29, 2019 Huffington Post editor Paul Waugh's thread continued: - His supporters may say Corbyn was clumsily trying to say BBC spent ... more »
A Question (Time) of Sport
I stayed up past my bedtime to keep guard on Question Time last night. In the current atmosphere, ‘keeping guard’ is a (self-imposed) obligation I feel compelled to fulfil, while the impending storm gathers momentum. Lunacy? Paranoia? Well, there it is. If anyone has the stamina to tot up the interruption quotient they’d conclude that Fiona Bruce had simply forgotten to flick the off-switch of her personal-opinion-regulator before going on air because it was undoubtedly still on ‘ON’. As a newsreader renowned for her unique method of ‘acting’ the news, Brucie behaved more like... more »

The lighter side of Thanksgiving
To help us digest all that Thanksgiving food and drink, here are a few giggleworthy mementos of the feast, sent in by readers, to whom my grateful thanks. First, for those who like the whole Turducken thing, with a side of H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos: And for those who like to deep-fry their turkey (I've sampled it, but I've never liked it as much as a slow-baked, oven-cooked bird): And finally, from a couple of years ago, what happens when the Irish try American Thanksgiving food? But wait - there's more! What about the Irish sampling *weird* Thanksgiving food? (... more »
