China, the Global Health Passport and Our Privacy
A Political Junkie, Viable Opposition - 16 hours ago
A recent article in the Global Times, the unofficial voice of the Communist Party of China provides us with some insight into where our post-pandemic world is headed and the role that China might play in our future "freedom". In the March 9, 2021 edition of the Global Times, we find this: Here are some quotes with my bolds: "*Chinese experts noted on Tuesday that China can help by sharing its experience with and provide technical support to the WHO to organize the issue, as China is the most experienced country in using a health code system in the world while the WHO is t...

* As More Schools Reopen, CDC Now Says Students Can Sit Just 3 Feet Apart* As more schools around the country move toward reopening, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention revised its guidance Friday, saying that K-12 students may sit 3 feet apart instead of 6 feet—as long as they wear masks. That’s regardless of whether the children are in “areas of low, moderate, or substantial community transmission” of the COVID-19 virus, the CDC said. The previous COVID-19 guidelines of 6 feet of social distancing limited how many students some schools could teach in person. Some scho...
Dementia Has No Cure, But One Simple Act Could Help Dramatically
Catherine Loveday, The National Interest - 15 hours ago
*Catherine Loveday* *Health, * [image: Singing] Could music provide an important channel of communication when so many other abilities are failing? Research seems to point in that direction. A few years ago, I was in the audience for a live radio show, when the renowned American country singer Glen Campbell took to the stage. What the listeners of the programme could not have seen was his obvious confusion about where he was and what was going on, nor the gentle supportive guidance from his daughter, a fellow musician on stage. And yet as soon as he struck the opening chords fo...
The F-22 Raptor Could Dominate the Skies for Decades to Come
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 15 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *F-22 Raptor, Americas* The U.S. military’s refocus on a peer or near-peer engagement has thrust the F-22 back into the spotlight again. *Here's What You Need to Know*: If all goes well, the F-22 will remain on the cutting edge of air superiority into the 2060s. While much attention has been focused recently on the F-35 and F-15X, not much has been given to the U.S. Air Force’s premier air superiority fighter, the F-22 Raptor. While the Raptor was one of the most advanced aircraft in the world when it entered service in the early 2000s, sensor, radar, and datalink ...
Why Israel’s F-35s are Like No Other Stealth Fighter on Earth
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 15 hours ago
*Caleb Larson* *Security, Middle East* Israel has received the rare privilege of being able to make upgrades to its F-35 stealth fighters. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Lockheed has allowed Israel to modify the standard BAE EW suit with their own Israeli-made system, presumably a kind of attachable pod, which could be tailored to counter regional capabilities. Israel secured a number of contractual rights from Lockheed-Martin that make their F-35I variants optimized for conflicts in the Middle East — and potentially the most capable F-35 variant in the world. *Domestic Re...
Why Did America Stop Building the F-22 Raptor?
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 15 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *F-22 Raptor, Americas* There’s little doubt the F-22 Raptor is the greatest air superiority fighter of its time. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The F-22 Raptor seemed vulnerable to challenges from the start. In the late 1990s, the United States was at a post–Cold War apex as an aviation juggernaut. Not only did it have the largest fleet of combat aircraft in the world, it was also producing the only fifth-generation fighter in existence: the F-22 Raptor. By 2009, the U.S. government had turned against the fighter, and only 187 were produced. What happened to t...
Lasers are Making Russia’s 6th-Generation Fighter into a True Menace
TNI Staff, The National Interest - 15 hours ago
*TNI Staff* *Security, * New technologies are changing how the world’s best air forces will fight future wars. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The aircraft will also be equipped with directed energy weapons—and fly as part of a swarm of drones. Indeed, while two aircraft in a flight might be manned, there might be 20 to 30 unmanned aircraft accompanying those jets. The Russian defense industry is starting to look at concepts for a sixth-generation fighter that would eventually replace the Sukhoi Su-57 PAK-FA. Like the United States Air Force and the Navy, the Russians are l...

Dismissive reviews: A cancer on the body of knowledge

Observers describe the quantity of research information now produced variously as “torrent,” “overload,” “proliferation,” or the like.

“The Western Firewall Is Complete”: The CIA’s Vast Modern Anti-Communist Propaganda Effort
barovsky, The New Dark Age - 16 hours ago
With Covid-19, the coming of the 2020s “Greater Depression,” and the climate catastrophe that’s increasingly afflicting our society with disasters like last month’s Texas blackouts, class conflict in the United States has reached the highly intensified state that it was destined to reach when neoliberalism first became implemented. You can’t drive down the living standards of the masses this much without provoking an ever greater series of uprisings, as shown by the unprecedented amount of participants that last year’s Black Lives Matter protests gained.

Revealed: How Israeli F-35 Stealth Fighters Would Pummel Iran
Michael Peck, The National Interest - 17 hours ago
*Michael Peck* *F-35, Middle East* If Israel does decide to bomb Iran, the U.S. government has made it a little easier. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Israel has long threatened to attack Iranian nuclear sites if Tehran tries to build atomic weapons. Iran has more than a thousand anti-aircraft guns, several varieties of surface-to-air missiles, and has repeatedly asked Russia to sell it advanced S-400 anti-aircraft missiles. Iranian nuclear facilities will certainly be protected by strong air defenses. If Israel does decide to bomb Iran, the U.S. government has made it a l...

We now have the technology to identify people who are on a fast track to developing dementia. The past three decades saw a dramatic improvement in our understanding of what brings about Alzheimer’s disease. Two proteins are thought to be responsible: amyloid and tau.

Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 17 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *F-22 Raptor, Americas* The stealth fighter is known for a range of technologies. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Citing budget concerns, Air Force officials have said it is unlikely the service will build new F-22s.

Ask the average American what he or she would be doing in the event of a nearby volcanic eruption, and I suppose the answers would include "Panic!", "Run like hell!", or "Pray". In Iceland, apparently, it's "None of the above".
