*Peter Suciu* *Security, * The Avenger significantly increases the amount of ammunition immediately available to the gunner and eliminates some if not all belt changes. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The platform utilizes an ammunition chute and internal divider, made from lightweight/flexible material, to keep the belt from twisting and to ensure a smooth feed.

The Definition of Insurrection
Gerard N. Magliocca, Balkinization - 7 hours ago
Bruce Castor, one of the ex-President's attorneys, argued today that what occurred on January 6th was not an insurrection. He said that insurrection is a legal term of art that is well understood and does not cover what occurred at the Capitol. Frankly, I don't know what he's talking about. There are authorities here and there that you can say shed some light on what insurrection means, but there is no legal definition of that word that somehow excludes the events that are the subject of the impeachment.

GCD, ClimateCite - 12 hours ago
Roy Spencer | Feb. 11, 2021 SUMMARY: The Urban Heat Island (UHI) is shown to have affected U.S. temperature trends in the official NOAA 1,218-station USHCN dataset. I argue that, based upon the importance of quality temperature trend calculations to national energy policy, a new dataset not dependent upon the USHCN Tmax/Tmin observations is required. I find that regression analysis …

greencrow, Greencrow As The Crow Flies - 10 hours ago
*Hypnotist Reveen Promotional Video* *Shows how the majority of Humans are* *susceptible to mind control/hypnosis* Where have we seen this public trance-like behaviour before? Where have we seen large segments of the population meekly and unquestioningly following directions. Directions which are ludicrous, based on nothing...and make them look silly? It took me a while but, finally, I remembered. *It's all happened before. Watch this VIDEO!* *Back in the 60's, 70's and 80's people used to gather in stadiums to be hypnotized by Reveen.

The Navy’s Skipjack Submarines Forever Changed Undersea Warfare
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 11 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Security, * During the Cold War, the United States Navy developed what were arguably the first truly modern submarines with the Skipjack-class. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *A total of six *Skipjacks* were produced from 1956-1961 and the boats remained in commission from 1959 until 1990. While these boats were essentially rushed into service, it is a testament of the innovative features that the final one wasn't retired until the end of the Cold War.

The Omnipotent Power to Assassinate

If the Constitution was bringing into existence a government of unlimited or omnipotent powers, then there would have been no point in enumerating a few limited powers. In that event, the Constitution would have called into existence a government with general, unlimited powers to do whatever was in the interests of the nation. If the Constitution had proposed a government of omnipotent p...
