The M16 rifle is one of the most iconic weapons of the post-World War II era.

Correlation Between Underground Carbon Stores And Above-Ground Plant BiomassOne of the things that scientists rely on to accurately predict climate change is the amount of carbon sequestered underground. Carbon dioxide in the air leads to increased global warming, exacerbating climate change. When plants have a lot of access to carbon dioxide, they photosynthesize more. Scientists have assumed for a long time that this led to a high concentration of carbon sequestered under the ground. As plants took in this carbon dioxide, they transformed it into compounds and organic structures such as roots and leaves, which would add to the amount of carbon stored un... read more

There are steps governments could take right now to share critical information and expertise to lessen the disparities between rich and poor nations in access to vaccines.

The New $3600 Stimulus Check Is Coming Soon (As in Next Month)*Trevor Filseth* *Stimulus Payment, * The payments are restricted to families that make less than $150,000 per year (or $75,000 per year for single parents), meaning that the wealthiest families are not eligible. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The IRS has its work cut out for it; in addition to its web presence, it has a massive backlog of paperwork from the third stimulus measure and accompanying “plus-up” payments, and has faced persistent staffing shortages over recent months. Considering that the deadline for 2020 taxes was on May 17, these problems are likely to persis... read more

An unpleasant bllog. But it has to be told.The early part of this blog got out of control. I think it's true. But it's dreadfully hard to write about it. As I go through the news, I see what I should have seen from the start - Our Liberala and Conservatives, like the U.S. Democrats and GOP are murdereous bastards. (That's not an exaggeration.) They whimper at the feet of the super rich. Joining the military as it is is not worth while. In fact it is a betrayal of all that civilisation can be. Look at Canada's wars since 1949 - Korea, Afghanistan, Haiti..., None of them were attacking Canada. ____________________________... read more

The Montana-Class Battleships Would Have Been Epic (If They Were Built)*Kyle Mizokami* *Battleships, Americas* The Montanas would have been slower than the Iowas but much more heavily armed and armored. *Here's What You Need to Know*: America's most powerful battleships were never actually built. The five *Montana*-class battleships, leviathans designed to dwarf even the giant *Iowa*-class battleships, were authorized for construction but never built, victims of the ascendance of naval aviation. Nearly as large as a modern supercarrier the *Montana*-class, like all battleships, was made obsolete by the success of the aircraft carrier. In the late... read more

France's Chauchat Gun: The Worst Gun of All Time?*Kyle Mizokami* *Guns, Europe* France is a powerful country that made many good weapons. Unfortunately this was not one of them. *Here's What You Need to Know*: This cheap machine gun was made in a rush during some of the worst times for France. One day at the auction house, someone left a pile of guns on the ground. This was not at all unusual. At the very bottom, wrapped in moving blankets, was a pile of scrap metal. I parted the blanket gently to expose more of whatever I was seeing — gently because the metal had a patina of dirty age and I didn’t want to stick myself. I saw... read more

Missed the Last Stimulus Payment? It’s Not Too Late to Get It.*Trevor Filseth* *Stimulus Payment Help, * Fortunately, if your direct deposit never arrived and you never cashed your initial stimulus check, the IRS will mail you a replacement. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The IRS has provided a web tool updating users on the status of their stimulus checks. To use it, you need to enter your Social Security number, your address, and your date of birth. Once this is done, the IRS will display the status of your check and whether it has been dispatched or not. It has now been more than two months since the March 2021 American Rescue Plan... read more

What If Japan Never Woke Up the Sleeping Giant (The U.S. Military)?*James Holmes* *military, Asia* How history would have played out had Imperial Japan strategized differently. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *It doesn’t take too much imagination to postulate alternative strategies for Imperial Japan. Suppose Robert E. Lee had laid hands on a shipment of AK-47s in 1864. How would American history have unfolded? Differently than it did, one imagines. Historians frown on alt-history, and oftentimes for good reason. Change too many variables, and you veer speedily into fiction.
