Jesus has gone ahead of us—Reflections from Lakeside’s pastor
*Read Mark 16:1-7* The Easter story is recorded in all four Gospels, but each tells the story differently. It’s like learning about the contemporary crisis via Fox News, CNN, NBC and ABC. Each tells the story with a slightly different bias. In Mark’s version, the women rise early on the first day of the week and take spices to anoint the (supposed) dead body of Jesus. On their way, they worry: who will roll away the stone from the entrance to the tomb? Certainly, they’re not going to be able to do it. When they arrive, they find the stone, which is very large, has already been ro... more »
Bill Whittle: Is the Wuhan Virus Man-Made?
Compelling evidence from a well-researched documentary makes a solid cause that the COVID-19 virus came from a Chinese lab. If so, then what? Draw your own conclusions. Fast-forward to 11:00 Last week I posted the video “Tracking Down the Origin of the Wuhan Coronavirus“. The evidence that this Wyhan virus is man-made is getting way too big to ignore. I imagine Trump and his team know it too. ~ Hardnox
Open Letter to the People young and old…
Who have swallowed the lies of Socialism hook, line, and sinker around the world ….. HOW DOES THIS FEEL TO EACH OF YOU . Since early March 2020, many people around the world have had to shelter in place. Most forced to by socialist governments. Many are in places where armed guards patrol with guns, smoke bombs, and orders to quell any who might gather. Where food – already scarce – has been nearly depleted for many who have been forced to shelter in place. Where working was actually for the first time in world history forced to stop and … Continue reading →
COVID-19 MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL
This is our recommended approach to COVID-19 based on the best (and most recent) available literature including the Shanghai Management Guideline for COVID. We should not re-invent the wheel, but learn from the experience of others around the world. It is important to recognize that COVID-19 does not cause your “typical ARDS”... this disease must be treated differently and it is likely we are exacerbating this situation by causing ventilator induced lung injury.

Nuisance Parameters In Classification Problems: A Simple Example
These days I have been writing a chapter of a book on machine learning for physics, and in so doing I have found myself pondering on how to best explain, in very simple terms, the nocuous effect that model uncertainty may have on the result of a classification task. So I decided to create a toy example with the purpose of introducing the discussion. The example is meant to have two attractive properties: be analytically solvable in closed form - meaning that one may compute with paper and pencil all the relevant results - and be described by simple-to-interpret graphs.

18 term Democratic Jim Visclosky is retiring from his northwest Indiana congressional seat-- a deep blue (D+8) seat where whomever wins the primary is the next member of Congress.

Wildlife artist Robert Fuller filmed a rare white hare in Yorkshire
The Easter Bunny is a mythical creature said to have its origins in medieval times when people believed young hares hatched out of lapwing eggs. It’s strange to think that people could have been so confused, but hares have always had a hold on our imagination and legends about them abound. So imagine my excitement when, last spring, I heard rumours of a white hare living in a remote valley on the Yorkshire Wolds. White hares are so rare that sightings of them are steeped in mystery. Intrigued, I set off to see if I could find the magical creature. When I arrived at the place it ha... more »

White House Pushed FEMA To Give Its Biggest Coronavirus Contract To A Company That Never Had To Bid
Last month, as a deadly new virus swept over the globe, one Canadian defense contractor predicted on an earnings call that it would lead to a big business opportunity in the U.S. Thanks to the White House, that bet paid off just a few weeks later in a $96 million no-bid deal.

Venezuela: Community Organization Key To Fighting COVID-19
Venezuela has been under a nationwide quarantine since mid-March as the government battles to quash the coronavirus before it overwhelms its health system. In this endeavour, the government of President Nicolas Maduro faces many challenges, not least of which is the state of its embattled health system that has suffered from years of economic sanctions and the return of thousands of Venezuelans from neighbouring countries fleeing the horrors the pandemic has inflicted in the region.

A Science project in a classroom is the perfect example of why washing your hand is essential.

USA: Capitalism & Racism + Covid-19 = Murder
April 11 — The Covid-19 pandemic is devastating New York City. Eighty refrigerator trucks are serving as mobile morgues to store the bodies. As of April 10, 92,384 people have been infected. Inmates in the Rikers Island prison are being offered $6 per hour to dig mass graves on Hart’s Island off the Bronx. That’s the site of Potter’s Field, where a million people too poor to afford a funeral had their bodies dumped.
Wikipedia: Information Wars
Long term readers will recall the Philip Cross Affair. A Wikipedia Editor named “Philip Cross” was relentlessly conducting a propaganda operation. It had two prongs; the first was continually to denigrate the Wikipedia entry of all public figures who opposed military intervention in the Middle East, removing positive information and adding mainstream media slurs in real time as they were made. The second and less noted prong was to big up the Wikpedia entries of right wing mainstream media figures, removing negative information and adding a positive spin.

How Coronavirus Could Make the Middle East Even More Dangerous
*Colin P. Clarke, Hajer Naili* *Security, Middle East* [image: Reuters] The coronavirus pandemic is likely to increase Sunni discrimination against Shia, particularly in the Sunni majority or Sunni-dominant countries. The geopolitical impact of the novel coronavirus pandemic is having ripple effects in countries and regions throughout the world. In the already volatile Middle East, the pandemic is further destabilizing countries and exacerbating conflicts and humanitarian suffering, especially among vast refugee populations displaced by civil war and conflict. Few will be spar... more »
The Air Force Is Adding Missions For Its RQ-170 Sentinel Spy Drone
*David Axe* *Security, * The drone was captured by Iran in 2011. *Key point: *The steady addition of new missions over the Sentinel’s roughly 15-year existence represents a strong vote of confidence on the part of the Air Force in the stealth drone’s usefulness. The U.S. Air Force in its 2021 budget proposal asked Congress to let the service retire scores of aircraft, including 24 of its 34 high-flying Global Hawk spy drones. Air Force chief of staff Gen. David Goldfein said that new, secret technology would replace the RQ-4s and other planes the service wants to retire. “Most ... more »
New Contract May Put the U.S. Navy’s Massive IT Network At Risk
*Dan Goure* *Security, Americas* What should be done? The U.S. Navy operates several of the largest IT networks on Earth. In order to better integrate communications between installations in the United States and around the world, it wants to combine those networks into one massive IT enterprise. At the same time, the Navy intends to modernize that new network, adding advanced cybersecurity and additional functionality. Yet this alone did not seem to be a big enough challenge for the Navy. In a move that can only be described as adding risk to the effort, the Navy dismissed the ... more »
On Opening a Locked Economy
A government has the power to lockdown the economy; it doesn’t have the power to open it. The businessmen, farmers, investors, professionals, and workers are the movers of the economy—theirs is the power to keep an economy open by participating in voluntary economic activity. When the world governments rescind their lockdown orders, they will discover that the movers of the economy are unwilling to wholeheartedly participate in the marketplace because they have become distrustful, demoralized, and risk-averse. The lockdown may extend far beyond the government mandated period; there ... more »
Don’t wait for a vaccine
I've heard several politicians say we'll have to go very slow to reopen the economy until we have a vaccine. Hogwash. There is no vaccine for AIDS; the vaccine for shingles only works for some; there are promising vaccines in the works for malaria which kills and cripples over a million a year, but nothing completely acceptable (and environmentalists removed the only safe protection, DDT, with no vaccine in sight); thousands of parents follow the advice they see on the internet and won't even accept measles, mumps and polio vaccines. Between the excruciatingly slow and thick gover... more »

*DeVos reaches settlement in lawsuit over loan relief program* The U.S. Education Department is promising to process student loan forgiveness claims for nearly 170,000 borrowers within 18 months as part of a proposed settlement announced Friday in a federal lawsuit. The suit alleges that Education Secretary Betsy DeVos illegally stalled a program known as borrower defense to repayment, which promises to forgive federal student loans for borrowers who are cheated by their colleges. When the lawsuit was filed in June 2019, it had been a year since the department issued a final decisi... more »

*Reflections on esteemed climate scientist, the late Fred Singer* By Joseph Bast Fred Singer passed away last night. He was 95. That this news was long expected makes it no less sad and disheartening. I write this as if through a veil of tears. Fred was such a wonderful person, so kind and wise, witty and considerate of others, that everyone who met him knew they were in the presence of a special person, even when they didn’t know he was a world-renowned scientist and prominent public intellectual. Fred Singer was a giant in the field of climate science. His careers in governmen... more »
Sunday morning music
It's Easter Sunday. That means a day of rejoicing for Christians, as we celebrate the central event of our faith. How better to do that than with the great choruses, "Worthy is the Lamb" and "Amen", which conclude Handel's oratorio "Messiah"? These performances are from my favorite recording of the piece, by Colin Davis and the London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, with some truly magnificent solo performances by the lead singers. (The entire performance is also available on YouTube.) Amen indeed! Peter
