Michael Peck, The National Interest - 23 minutes ago
*Michael Peck* *Security, Americas* What good is an aircraft carrier without carrier-trained pilots? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The fact that China is looking for a specialized training jet is evidence that Beijing’s carrier plans are maturing. A single aircraft carrier, like Russia has, is a novelty. But China may build four or more carriers, which will require infrastructure and equipment such as carrier training jets. What good is an aircraft carrier without carrier-trained pilots? For the U.S. Navy, that’s no big deal. For nearly a century, it has been teaching fled...

Michael Peck, The National Interest - 23 minutes ago

Whether there would have been anything left of Cuba—or America, or Russia—other than radioactive rubble is another matter. Attention, people of Cuba: Obey the orders of the U.S. Army, or suffer the consequences.

The Myth of the Superiority of Reason
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 1 hour ago
There are no grounds to believe the people who believe in the supremacy of reason will be more efficient and benign in the exercise of power than those who believe in the dictatorship of the proletariat. Those who possess political power also possess the tools for promoting themselves as the men of reason who are expert in everything, and, therefore, deserve to be obeyed by all. Thus a dictatorship of the proletariat can easily be promoted as a rule of the infallible men of reason, and that is how it happened in the Soviet Union.

“Massive stars, abrasive winds, mountains of dust, and energetic light sculpt one of the largest and most picturesque regions of star formation in the Local Group of Galaxies. Known as N11, the region is visible on the upper right of many images of its home galaxy, the Milky Way neighbor known as the Large Magellanic Clouds (LMC). The above image was taken for scientific purposes by the Hubble Space Telescope and reprocessed for artistry by an amateur to win the Hubble's Hidden Treasures competition.

*"Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds"* "Every age has its peculiar folly: Some scheme, project, or fantasy into which it plunges, spurred on by the love of gain, the necessity of excitement, or the force of imitation. Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one." - Charles Mackay "'Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" is an early study of crowd psychology by Scottish journalist Charles Mackay, first published in 1841.

Colourful language from Christian Fraser
Craig, Is the BBC biased? - 5 hours ago
As we know, it's a very, very, very bad thing to say 'coloured people'. You've got to put the word 'people' first, move the 'coloured' bit to the end and take off the '-ed' (most important of all), and pop an 'of' bang in the middle, making: 'people of colour'. That makes all the difference. If you're still unsure, please read this BBC Newsbeat article headlined *Warning: Why using the term 'coloured' is offensive*. Transgress, even accidentally, and say 'coloured' rather than 'of colour', and you seriously risk all hell breaking loose, especially if you're in the limelight...

*"The Heart of Humanity"* by Madisyn Taylor, The DailyOM "Sitting with our sadness takes the courage to believe that we can bear the pain and we will come out the other side. The last thing most of us want to hear or think about when we are dealing with profound feelings of sadness is that deep learning can be found in this place. In the midst of our pain, we often feel picked on by life, or overwhelmed by the enormity of some loss, or simply too exhausted to try and examine the situation. We may feel far too disappointed and angry to look for anything resembling a bright side to o...

*Michael Peck* *Security, * How exactly does GlobalFirepower calculate these scores? *Here's What You Need To Remember: *While Iran has a larger military, a bigger population and more military manpower, that wouldn’t help much in a conflict with Israel, which doesn’t share a border with Iran, which in turn means that big Iranian armies have nowhere to go (these factors were important in the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq War, where the two nations were adjacent).

*Jacob Heilbrunn* *Russia, Americas* Biden may be more flexible in dealing with Russia than many have assumed--and more successful than Trump. It was no accident that Russian president Vladimir Putin dragged his heels about acknowledging Joe Biden’s victory against Donald Trump. During the campaign, Biden repeatedly voiced his disdain for what he depicted as Trump’s truckling to the Kremlin and declared that he would pursue a tougher policy. His first phone call with Putin today, however, suggests that he will be more successful in dealing with Russia than his predecessor. Indee...
