Designer Envisions Breathtaking Floating Research Station That Cleans the Ocean, Harnesses Tidal Energy
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
[image: (Courtesy of Lenka Petráková)] *(Courtesy of Lenka Petráková)* So far this is an artistic representation of hand waving and hardly a convincing effort in engineering design. When it comes to the open ocean, I tend to be super conservative, because we really have not mastered it all at all. This structure looks like it will pile up on some beach in order to be ground to bits. That is why i like water tight flotation cells linked together in such a way that they can move their own way. Do problem in most conditions, but in heavy conditions it is also able to batten down ...

This has become a thing and quality matters particularly when a manufacturer can take advantage of your ignorance. Right now, getting good advice is dicy.

Shift In Scientific Consensus About Demise Of Neanderthals
arclein, Terra Forming Terra - 21 hours ago
The most likely cause is demographic absorption by a seriously larger population. Recall a large hunting band will take down the males and then capture the females which will be typically smaller. This produces hybrid children easily enough. Thus absorption is almost inevitable, which also explains why the Sasquatch typically avoids us. They cannot confront a hunting band ever and do anything except run away. The neandethal was as smart as humanity and made tools. It is unlikely that they lived in another biome so conflict was inevitable. . *Shift In Scientific Consensus Ab...

Chinese-style soft power

Coal versus Wind, Renewables, and Electrical Grids (Who Wins?)
Todd Royal, The National Interest - 19 hours ago
*Todd Royal* *Energy, * Until sustainable energy sources are developed enough to be able to deliver consistent and uninterruptible electricity, coal, natural gas, and nuclear are what must be relied upon. C.S. Lewis described the grip moral relativism has on the human condition. Lewis implied wise old men who were once wise, but now in power, face the cardinal problem of reality; the soul, the solution of knowledge, and by wit self-discipline and virtue are thrown out the window if profitable off the backs of taxpayers and the global poor.

Kimber: The Best Gun Maker on the Planet?
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 19 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Kimber, Americas* While Kimber today dominates the 1911 market like no other, the company wasn’t an immediate success after its founding. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* The company has become known for building fine sporting firearms that are better than even the classics from the golden age of American firearms. While it was Colt Firearms that produced the first of the John Moses Browning-designed M1911 .45 pistols, today the market leader in the category is Kimber.

Why Smith & Wesson’s 642 Revolver Continues to Impress
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 19 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Security, Americas* It won’t go away anytime soon. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *With an MSRP of $477 it is also easy to see why the Model 642 has been a steady seller—perhaps some of those purchased were to use as a backup for those who are already carrying an automatic. It would be hard to go wrong with this Airweight as a back-up.

Paulo Coelho, “Afraid To Change”

*“Afraid To Change”* by Paulo Coelho "We are afraid to change because we think that, after much effort and sacrifice, we know our present world.

Isabel Paterson and Ayn Rand
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 16 hours ago
Isabel Paterson was a far more wise, balanced, and knowledgeable philosopher than her friend Ayn Rand. Rand might have had a better literary style (even this is debatable)—she certainly had a whole lot of ambition to be a famous author and philosopher—but Paterson possessed a better grasp of philosophy, history, and the human condition. Paterson’s book *The God of the Machine* is a classic. Here’s an excerpt from the book: “Fear and want are subjective; and poverty is the absence of wealth. If it were promised that from the hour of his birth no man should ever again stand in his nake...

These 5 U.S. Military Weapons Are Completely Overrated
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 22 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *Security, Americas* These five weapons of war are “overrated” in the sense that they occupy a larger space in the defense-security conversation than they really deserve. *Here’s What You Need to Remember:* “Overrated” is a challenging concept. In sports, a player can be “great” and “overrated” at the same time. Future Major League Baseball Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, for example, is quite clearly a “great” player, well deserving of the first ballot invitation he will likely receive.
