Amazon to Open Pop-Up Coronavirus Vaccine Clinic
Ethen Kim Lieser, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Public Health, Americas* They plan to innoculate 2,000 people in one day. Amazon has announced that it will open a pop-up clinic in its Seattle headquarters on Sunday to administer coronavirus vaccines. The goal of the one-day clinic will be to inoculate two thousand eligible members of the general public.

Gingerly re-entering culture war territory, I spotted a BBC article and a response from Raheem Kassam on Twitter: The links for the two pieces are here: *BBC*: *Krystina Arielle: Star Wars supports High Republic host after racist abuse* *AltNewsMedia*: *New Star Wars Show Host Has History Of Anti-White, Racist Tweets* I'd suggest you read the second piece first.

Do China’s Missiles Mean Aircraft Carriers are Now Obsolete?
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 7 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, Americas* The anti-access/area denial (A2/AD) systems around the world may indeed curb the effectiveness of the Ford-class, but the U.S. will still find uses for these ships. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The vulnerabilities of the big carriers are real, and the U.S. needs to either remedy those problems, or consider an alternative means of delivering ordnance.

Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 7 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Taiwan, Asia* Beijing didn’t specify exactly which system was involved in the recent exercise, but analysts have speculated it likely was the HJ-10 (also called the Red Arrow-10), a vehicle-loaded guided missile. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* Taiwan has sought to purchase the Abrams for more than a decade to bolster its aging tank force.

PCs took up 11 percent and tablets 4 percent. The coronavirus pandemic had a massive effect on consumer habits, especially with customers stuck at home for long stretches. And perhaps unsurprisingly, this led to a big increase in total data usage. Comscore released data on Friday which showed that total in-home data usage by Americans increased 18 percent in 2020, compa...

When you're younger you feel: "Hey, this person is evil" or "This person is a jerk" or stupid or "What's wrong with them?" Then you go through life and you think: "Well, it's not so easy."

Chet Raymo, "Know Thyself"

*"Know Thyself"* by Chet Raymo "The ancient Greek aphorism, attributed to Socrates and others. Good advice, I'm sure. If only we knew what it means. Is it the same as the "examination of conscience" we were asked to perform as young Catholics? "Bless me, Father, for I have sinned." Well, yes, it is good to ask ourselves if we have lived up to our highest moral aspirations. But surely "Know thyself" means more than that. Does it mean to be aware of our self-awareness? That is to say, not to act impulsively, but reflectively. Thoreau's "I went to the woods because I wished to live d...

Dear readers: Know that there is powerful precedent for the situation in which we patriots find ourselves, and it is found in faith. Christianity’s early apostles spoke the truth of the gospel and of the eternal rewards in store for true believers. And they were persecuted, stoned, used as human oil torches by the fear- and hate-filled cultures in which they lived. Christians today live in faith, sharing the good news of the gospel message – and increasing their numbers – in virtually every repressive nation on our planet.
