Kamala Harris exposes Democrat revolutionary motives [Video]
Seraphim Hanisch, The Duran - 21 hours ago
Four years ago, not even the most liberal, Marxist candidate would have praised leftist violence. He or she would have tried to look for the “legit” side of such action, but they would have never endorsed it. But now, we have precisely this kind of rhetoric, only thinly masked. (and not with a COVID mask […]
Football Star Murdered in Afghanistan
G2mil, The Duran - 21 hours ago
Pat Tillman was a handsome professional football player who walked away from a $3.6 million contract with the Arizona Cardinals to enlist in the U.S. Army after the 9-11 terror attacks. He was assigned to an elite U.S. Army ranger unit and participated in the invasion of Iraq in March 2003. In early 2004, he […]
HUGE SELLOFF of Tech Stocks as Fed Reduces Corporate Bond ETF Purchases. Coincidence?
Dewey Fernfield, The Duran - 21 hours ago
source Stocks have been fluctuating wildly. But is it a coincidence that the Fed reduced their rapid ascent to more of a stream, right around the time where stocks lost their parabolic rise? It’s certainly possible that the market feels it has gone a long way up without a breather and now [is] reassessing the […]

DownWithTyranny, DownWithTyranny! - 20 hours ago
*by Noah Sunday Thoughts:* She's got Sarah Huckabee eyes. Her lips a creepy surprise. She's got Sarah Huckabee eyes. I am a lifelong collector of vinyl records but the one pictured above (Yes, it's real!) is one that never made it into my vast collection. Although I find the cover amusing, cringe-worthy and downright Halloween-ish, Republican records like these are just not to my liking and my NRA target practice days are long past. Still, I wonder about the musical contents. Some sort of pre-Industrial Metal, perhaps? Maybe Lou Reed took one look at so-called Mary Hinge and ...
Buying TikTok Won't Stop China Government Surveillance
Audrey Fritz, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Audrey Fritz* *Technology, Asia* The proposed TikTok partnership deal between US-based companies Oracle and Walmart and China-based ByteDance fails to address the concerns associated with user data being tied to a Chinese company The proposed TikTok partnership deal between US-based companies Oracle and Walmart and China-based ByteDance fails to address the concerns associated with user data being tied to a Chinese company. Even if majority ownership goes to the US, a continued ByteDance stake in TikTok—regardless of whether it’s as a minority or majority holder—would enable con...
Donald Trump May Have Delivered The “Death Knell” To Iran's Reformist Movement
Rohollah Faghihi, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Rohollah Faghihi* *Security, Middle East* For Washington, the JCPOA was like a worthless piece of paper, but for Rouhani and reformists, it was vigorous political capital to use to bring up positive democratic changes. As the U.S. President Donald Trump withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal in 2018, the death knell of the reformism movement in Iran was heard. President Hassan Rouhani and reformists in Tehran started to see themselves as weakened and undermined, while hardliners were having a party over the precious gift delivered to them by White House. For Washington, the JCPOA ...
Going Global: The F-35 Is Taking Over The World
Dan Goure, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Dan Goure* *Security, World* Once nations enter the program, some have discovered that they like and need the F-35 so much that they decide to buy additional aircraft. The United States is rapidly building an international community based around the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. The military value of such a community is indisputable. The F-35 will be one of the pillars supporting the creation of a new, sensor-rich way of warfare. But as the negotiations that led to the opening of relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) demonstrated, potential international sales...
We Will Plan For The Now - A Quotation by M.N. Hopkins

*The past habit of creating out of non-realities that lead to a chaos and confusion will no longer exist. *Now will Humankind discuss and plan systems that are suited to the realities of that time and the environments that exist *We will plan for the now and past and future will take care of themselves.

How did Max Planck come up with the quantum theory of light?
Luboš Motl, The Reference Frame - 22 hours ago
Reposted from Quora Back in 1900, Max Planck just wanted to find the right formula – which we know as Planck's law now – saying how much energy a black body (which absorbs everything and doesn’t reflect any light) emits in electromagnetic waves in any interval of frequencies (or wavelengths) when it’s heated up to a given temperature. At low frequencies, it was known that the Rayleigh–Jeans law – a simple power law – did a good job to describe the density of energy per unit wavelength. A classical derivation from the first principles was known, too: it’s based on the simple Boltzman...
Fossil Fools
Louis Hissink, Louis Hissink's Crazy World - 22 hours ago
Why do we believe hydrocarbons are fossil fuels? Fossil in the sense that these mineral deposits are derived from buried biomass. Go back to the 17th century this era and work out what “science” achieved during The Enlightenment. Reality was … Continue reading →
A Deal With the Devil: How Churchill and Stalin Worked Against Hitler
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 22 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* [image: By digitized by: BiblioArchives / LibraryArchives - Flickr: Sir Winston Churchill, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=41991931] They worked against a common enemy but distrusted each other. In the Grand Alliance volume of Winston S. Churchill’s memoirs of World War II, the British prime minister lambasted Soviet Premier Josef Stalin and his inept government for failing to anticipate Operation Barbarossa, the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union, which began on June 22, 1941. Churchill wrote, “We must no...
How South Africa Built (and Then Dismantled) Its Nuclear Weapons
Steve Weintz, The National Interest - 22 hours ago
*Steve Weintz* *Security, Africa* Acquiring fissile material is just half the nuclear secret. *Key Point*: The nuclear program was not well understood—until now. Apartheid-era South Africa had all the qualities necessary for a secret nuclear weapons program: an authoritarian government, a hostile international climate, a large and inventive arms industry and abundant deposits of uranium ore. Like other nuclear states. South Africa early on acquired necessary technology and materials through international cooperation, but fell back on its own resources when that cooperation ended...
Cuties: How Many People Really Cancelled Netflix Over It?
Stephen Silver, The National Interest - 22 hours ago
*Stephen Silver* *Society, Americas* Was there a big impact on the streaming giant? Whether the topic is political bias, controversial content, or something else, social media users are fond of declaring their attention to cancel their cable, a specific cable channel, or even a streaming service. Whether those making such declarations have actually followed through on such threats, on the other hand, is much harder to ascertain. We do know that cancelling an individual cable channel is virtually impossible to do without cutting the cord altogether. The latest such mass threat ca...
The Soviet Union's Nuke-Proof Tank
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 22 hours ago
*Caleb Larson* *History, Europe* [image: Wikimedia Commons] The Object 279 would have dominated Europe’s nuclear battlefields. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Object 279 was done in by changes to warfighting doctrine. As the Cold War progressed, American and Soviet planners shifted assumptions about nuclear war. They became convinced that the opening salvos of the next European war would not be nuclear as had been assumed earlier, but dominated by conventional weapons. In the early days of the Cold War, both American and Soviet war planners assumed that the next European...
The Pure Evil of Hydrogen Hyping
GCD, ClimateCite Corp - 23 hours ago
David Archibald | Sept. 24, 2020 In energy policy, the Australian government is compounding stupidity upon stupidity.

After Election Protection, Is A General Strike the Way to Beat a Trump Coup?
DownWithTyranny, DownWithTyranny! - 1 day ago
*-by Bob Fitrakis and Harvey Wasserman* Donald Trump has made it clear he will not peacefully relinquish power after the coming election, no matter what the outcome. To get him out of the White House, it may take the ultimate non-violent action: a nationwide general strike. Trump says he’ll brand any legitimate vote count that shows him losing to be “fraudulent” and proclaim himself emperor for life. He’ll push to fill RBG’s Supreme Court seat before the election to give himself a solid majority there should he lose it in the popular vote. Until it reaches that point, those op...

Eggeling’s Translation of the Satapatha Brahmana

Heinrich Julius Eggeling, a professor of Sanskrit at the University of Edinburgh from 1875 to 1914, spent a significant part of his life translating the *Satapatha Brahmana*. His translation, published in five volumes between 1882 and 1897, is still in print, and scholars continue to refer to it in their discussions of the *Satapatha Brahmana*.

Why Arms Control With China Is A Must
John Rossomando, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*John Rossomando* *Security, Asia* Both America and the world need China to sign the START treaty. The United States and the world must exert all available political, military, economic, and diplomatic pressure to get China to sign the next iteration of the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) or other arms control measures. China remains the largest nuclear power without any degree of transparency or treaty-imposed limitations. The START agreement signed a decade ago between the United States and Russia will expire in February, and the Trump administration wants China to sig...

"We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God." (Acts 14:22) When the apostle Paul wrote the above statement, he had been stoned to death. Or least, that is what his enemies thought. "Then some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and won the crowd over. They stoned Paul and dragged him outside the city, thinking he was dead. But after the disciples had gathered around him, he got up and went back into the city. The next day he and Barnabas left for Derbe.

Venezuela: From ‘Magical Realism’ To Parliamentary Elections
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 1 day ago
Elliott Abrams, White House Special Envoy for Venezuela, recently referred to [far right politician] Maria Corina Machado’s foreign intervention appeals as “unwise” and “magical realism.” In so doing he made the US military intervention scenario less likely, at least for now, and he unwillingly left the electoral route as the only politically viable option. Meanwhile, Abrams himself has been pushing to escalate the blockade which has now generated a critical fuel shortage situation, with all its implications in terms of food supply and healthcare. The post Venezuela: From ‘Magical...

*SouthFront:* *US Is Preparing Military Response To Wave Of Iranian-Backed Attacks On Its Forces In Iraq* Over the past months, attacks on convoys of the US-led coalition moving military equipment and supplies have become an ordinary development in Iraq.

Military Snipers Could Soon Be Using "Guided" Bullets
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Americas* It's all thanks to a DARPA project. *Key Point*: DARPA has been quiet on the project since 2014. One of the most challenging roles in ground units is that of a military sniper. Military snipers must take long distance shots with precision rifles, often doing a fair amount of math in their heads to make a bullet reach its target. A new guided-bullet technology, however, promises to make longer distance shots a little easier by installing guidance systems in bullets. The mission of the sniper is to take out targets at ranges farther than your ...

Japan Designed Battleships With Monster 20-Inch Guns. Why Were They Never Built?
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Robert Farley* *History, Asia* Japan lacked the industrial capacity to compete with the United States. *Key Point*: Had the war not come, Japan still would have bankrupted itself spending on these massive ships. In January 1936 Japan announced its intention to withdraw from the London Naval Treaty, accusing both the United States and the United Kingdom of negotiating in bad faith. The Japanese sought formal equality in naval construction limits, something that the Western powers would not give. In the wake of this withdrawal, Japanese battleship architects threw themselves into...

Defense Secretary Mark Esper recently visited California and where he chose to spend his time is enlightening. Stops included the USS Bonhomme Richard, which suffered a catastrophic fire in July, the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier, and in Santa Monica, the defense think tank Rand Corporation. The visit no doubt boosted morale, but one of Esper’s comments left analysts wondering....
A National Security Strategy for New Japanese Prime Minister Suga
Thomas Cynkin, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Thomas Cynkin* *Security, Asia* Yoshihide Suga will have more than enough high-priority national security agenda items to keep him fully occupied. Japan is incrementally becoming more of a consequential international actor amidst an increasingly complex international security environment, and so Tokyo concomitantly faces a greater array of national security challenges requiring nimble and effective policymaking. Unfortunately for Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga, there will be no honeymoon period during which he can comfortably settle into his new job. There is no doubt that Suga i...

Hitler Wanted To Invade Great Britain, Here's Why It Didn't Happen
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* Russia took precedence. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *For the British, the invasion threat remained well into October, but Hitler’s mind was no longer on England, if it had ever really been firmly fixed in that direction. Rather, it was turned east toward Russia. Major Graf Von Kielmansegg, an officer in Germany’s 1st Armored Division based near Orleans, France, was dragged from a cinema on the night of August 28, 1940, and told to report to his chief of staff. “As I entered his office I was sure that we were finally going to be...
Tank or Cannon: Meet Iran’s Bizarre M110 Artillery Gun
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Caleb Larson* *Security, Middle East* [image: By BRAM DE JONG / Dirk Van Laer - http://www.defenselink.mil/multimedia/, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=3851670] This weapon is a mish-mash that defies easy classification. *Key Point*: This weapon is old and America no logner uses it. However, Iraq maintains it in service and it has a pretty decent range. *M110* The M110 is a bit of a zombie—neither tank nor artillery piece, but something of both. The M110 is based on the smaller M115 howitzer, a towed artillery piece that in its ultimate configura...

The Tories and the British Fox News
Phil, All That Is Solid ... - 1 day ago
With a "heavy heart", wrote Andrew Neil, "I will be leaving the BBC ... As for the future, I’m delighted to announce I have accepted the post of Chairman of GB News, a new news channel to be launched early in the New Year bringing new perspectives to the news." Backed by the US Discovery corporation, the aim is to challenge the BBC, ITV, and Sky in the broadcast news market - leaving many anticipating a British iteration of Fox News. Not as overtly right wing and frothing perhaps, but the "new perspectives" aren't about to feature excluded voices from council estates or left winger...
Why Everyone Loves the Vaunted Ruger SR1911
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Americas* [image: https://www.ruger.com/productImages/6736/detail/1.jpg] This gun may be newer, but it draws upon some of the finest traditions in firearms. *Key Point*: The 1911 was one of the best pistols ever made. This new version by Ruger takes up that legacy and continues it. One of the most successful handgun designs of all time is the 1911 series semi-automatic pistol. Designed for war and to take advantage of the deadly .45 round, the 1911 and subsequent variants were the official handguns of the U.S. military from World War I well into the 198...

Adern’s ‘loosening’ of abortion laws while NZ was in lockdown described as the ‘understatement of the decade’ – laws the majority of NZers were NOT in support of
Pam Vernon, Rangitikei Environmental Health Watch - 1 day ago
“According to the New York Times article, “public opinion surveys show that most New Zealanders” favored liberalizing their country’s abortion laws. However, independent polling shows that the vast majority oppose specific features in this law. For instance, just 2% of Kiwi women support abortion on-demand up to birth. 93% oppose sex-selective abortion, in which a … Continue reading Adern’s ‘loosening’ of abortion laws while NZ was in lockdown described as the ‘understatement of the decade’ – laws the majority of NZers were NOT in support of →
