Sturgis Bikers Not Superspreaders
Jennifer Beam Dowd writes at Slate The Sturgis Biker Rally Did Not Cause 266,796 Cases of COVID-19. Excerpts in italics with my bolds. The recent mass gathering in South Dakota for the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally seemed like the perfect recipe for what epidemiologists call a “superspreading” event. Beginning Aug. 7, an estimated 460,000 attendees […]

China threatens US with economic disaster
Gatestone produced an article on September 10 called “China Threatens Total Economic War by Dumping Treasuries: Be My Guest.” Their article is built on the premise that the U.S. government should fight back against the Chinese Communist Party publicly talking about an American default. They claim that this kind of talk is essentially a declaration of intent to destroy the American economy. They think shoving China out of the U.S. “door” would economically greatly weaken China. Their assertion is that many Americans have been intimidated, saying Washington cannot oppose China because ... more »
Are you being GASLIGHTED? Yes, you are!
What is gaslighting? Found on the State of the Nation: Excerpts: The term originates in the systematic psychological manipulation of a victim by her husband in Patrick Hamilton’s 1938 stage play Gas Light, and the film adaptations released in 1940 and 1944. In the story, the husband attempts to convince his wife and others that she is insane by manipulating small elements of their environment and insisting that she is mistaken, remembering things incorrectly, or delusional when she points out these changes. The play’s title alludes to how the abusive husband slowly dims the gas ligh... more »
No, the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally Didn't Spawn 250,000 Coronavirus Cases
[image: undefined] Here's what we were told: An August motorcycle rally in Sturgis, South Dakota, helped spread COVID-19 to more than a quarter-million Americans, making it the root of about 20 percent of all new coronavirus cases in the U.S. last month. So said a new white paper from the IZA Institute of Labor Economics, at least. And national news outlets ran with it. "Sturgis Motorcycle Rally was 'superspreading event' that cost public health $12.2 billion," tweeted The Hill.

Not For Sale: Brazil Won't Sell Its Ancient Aircraft Carrier
*Peter Suciu* *Security, * The hand-me-down aircraft carrier: Brazil didn't build the warship, but rather the Clemenceau-class aircraft carrier was constructed in France and launched in 1960 into service as the FS Foch. It served in the French Navy for some 40 years, until the decision was made to sell rather than scrap it In 2017, the Brazilian Navy changed course in a very big way.

Could the F-15EX Transform the U.S. Defense Industry?
*Robert Farley* *Technology, * Can Boeing, the Department of Defense, and the U.S. Air Force use an old fighter to teach the U.S. aerospace industry new tricks? As was widely reported in July, the Air Force has decided to acquire a large number of F-15EX fighters over the next several years. The F-15EX was initially expected to replace the elderly F-15 C/D, but the latest reports indicate that it may also replace the Air Force’s fleet of F-15Es. Essentially, the F-15EX concept binds generations of technological innovation into the very old F-15 airframe. The F-15EX uses the clas... more »

Bob Woodward is claiming that Trump saying he was trying to avoid panicking we the people in early February about the China virus. So? Do we want a President who wants us panicked? Remember when Trump was allegedly guilty of downplaying the virus Joe Biden was saying that Trump's China travel ban was "xenophobic". Nancy Pelosi was telling us to mingle in crowds in Chinatown. Cuomo was telling New Yorkers they had nothing to worry about; he had things under control. In comparison Trump telling us to not panic over a virus that will, at worst, leave 99.98% of us fine is hardly so... more »
The Sturgis Motorcyle Rally caused 260 not 250,000 new China virus cases
The #FakeNews media is reporting that the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally caused 250,000 new COVID19 cases and cost us $12.2 billion. The first thing to note is that the same media has never talked about the number of cases that resulted from the riots and protests. In fact while the #FakeNews media has condemned Sturgis from the get go they've also actually encouraged people to go to protests and riots where social distancing wasn't followed at all. However, as usual, they're lying to us. As of 9/9/2020 only 260 China virus cases have been linked to Sturgis. How did the liars in the ... more »
September 11, 2001
Remembering that terrible day, September 11, 2001. I was sitting in my office upstairs, and Bob hollered up the stairs to turn on the TV. But for about 24 hours we were united in our fear, pain and patriotism. My siblings and I all called our father. Why I'm not sure. But it was just a comfort to hear his voice. Then the attacks on President Bush began from the media. Why did he not anticipate this; how could he not know; there were 100s of warnings, tips and false alarms; why did he stop and hesitate while reading to children, and on and on. Drip, drip, drip. The media were buildi... more »
September 11, 1960 and 2020
Today is our 60th wedding anniversary. We're having a much smaller celebration than we had in 2010 for our 50th--a few Lakeside friends and neighbors for wine and chocolate in our neighbor's yard which is big enough for outdoor social spacing and lawn chairs. I've purchased individually wrapped desserts in a variety of chocolate flavors--peppermint, raspberry, peanut butter, etc., and some soda for the kids. We hope the weather will hold--it's turned a little nippy here in Lakeside. Last night Bob asked me what was our best year out of the 60, and I think it's not an actual calend... more »
Former Chief Of Intelligence At US Homeland Security Says The Trump Administration Sought To ‘Censor Or Manipulate’ Intelligence
*CBS:* *Whistleblower says top DHS officials tried to stifle intel reports on Russian interference* A senior Department of Homeland Security official alleges he was retaliated against after refusing to stand down on reporting Russia's attempts to interfere in the 2020 presidential election, according to a complaint released Wednesday by the House Intelligence Committee.

Collective Malevolence
Michelle Goldberg writes that Bob Woodward's tapes of Donald Trump reveal something we didn't know about him: The president doesn’t sound ignorant or deluded. Rather, he sounds uncommonly lucid. On Feb. 7, Trump described the virus as airborne and “more deadly than even your strenuous flus,” adding, “this is 5 percent versus 1 percent, or less than 1 percent.” It’s not clear whether Trump thought that Covid-19 had a 5 percent case fatality rate — a number that seemed plausible in February — but he clearly knew that compared with the flu, it was several times more likely to kill. ... more »

The U.S. Air Force Wants More Than 100 B-21 Stealth Bombers
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2001%3Anewsml_PBEAHUKXBCF&share=true] The size of the bomber fleet is actually rather small historically, so the branch wants more bombers to increase its number. The arrival of the B-21 is expected to more than triple the percentage of low-observable bomber aircraft in the Air Force’s fleet by adding larger numbers of a new “stealth” platform intended to reshape the service’s attack tactics and strategy for decades to come. “100 or more B-21s will mean two-thirds or more of our... more »

These American Boats Destroyed Communist Guerrillas During the Vietnam War
*Warfare History Network* *History, * The U.S. Navy’s river patrol boats played a crucial role in the Mekong Delta during the Vietnam War. *Key Point*: The advent of the Mobile Riverine Force in the delta marked a shift in the balance of power in the region. The U.S. Navy deployed a variety of small boats to South Vietnam during the Vietnam War, but perhaps the best known of these is the river patrol boat. The “patrol boat: riverine,” or Navy PBR, was the first watercraft built for the so-called brown water navy in Vietnam. During the height of the conflict, Navy personnel scout... more »

Wisdom of Mythology; Superstitions of Atheism
Most people do not know the wisdom and knowledge that can be found in their books of mythology and religion; if they knew, they would not be attracted to the superstitions and false rituals propagated by the modern atheistic philosophies. I am not saying that what the mythologies and religions have preached three thousand or four thousand years ago are appropriate for the people in every age, including our own time—while the wisdom in the mythologies and religions is timeless, their teachings have to be calibrated to the moral and spiritual requirements of the modern age.
