Sending a dangerous message
Every hour on the BBC News Channel since around 5pm yesterday a report has been broadcast by Nomia Iqbal where she says of Kyle Rittenhouse, ''But many Democrats are worried that by not being held accountable for killing two men and injuring a third, it sends a dangerous message. The Vice President said the decision reflected poorly on the justice system.'' Given that he was put on trial for murder and four other offences and found innocent on all counts, surely that *is* accountability? Of course, what she means is that he should have been found guilty. read more

* EVs in Norway are CHEAPER than regular cars* * Money talks: EVs have gone from making up less than 2 per cent of new car sales to more than three quarters* In the early 1990s, Norway began introducing the policies that would later drive an EV transition, including abolishing or waiving various taxes to reduce the up-front and lifetime cost of EVs. Strangely enough, one catalyst for this was the Norwegian '80s synth-pop band A-ha, otherwise best known for the song Take On Me. In 1989, two members of the trio bought a converted EV (range: 45km) and drove it around Norway, stubborn... read more
How Did NATO Counter the Soviet Submarine Advantage?
*Steve Weintz* *Submarines, NATO, Former Soviet Union* At the height of the Cold War, the Soviet Union had so many hundreds of deadly submarines at sea that Western war planners willing to try almost any possible countermeasure, however goofy sounding. *Here's What You Need to Know*: By the time of the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, the USSR controlled the largest submarine force in the world — some 300 diesel-electric submarines and a handful of nuclear-propelled models. NATO navies couldn’t keep up. “We simply do not have enough forces,” Vice Adm. R.M. Smeeton stated. At the heigh... read more
This Soviet Submarine Could've Been a Monster
*Mark Episkopos* *Akula Class, Eurasia* Soviet submarine performance was crippled by one glaring flaw: suboptimal acoustics. *Here's what you need to remember: *The results spoke for themselves: within the span of one attack submarine generation, the USSR went from a crippling acoustics disadvantage to being able to trade stealth performance blows with the competing U.S. *Los Angeles* class. The Akula class of nuclear-powered attack submarines is a formidable and remarkably long-lived showcase of the late Soviet Union’s single-minded drive to keep pace with—if not exceed—its Col... read more

Why Did the Marines Scrap Plans for a Carrier-Launched Radar Drone?
*David Axe* *U.S. Marine Corps, * The Navy is reconsidering its long-term plans for at-sea aviation. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *A big radar proved to be too heavy for the drone, Deputy Commandant of the Marine Corps for Aviation Lt. Gen. Steven Rudder told USNI News. The weight of the radar limited the vehicle’s endurance. So instead of equipping the ship-launched drone with the radar, the Corps plans to add the sensor to a land-based vehicle. The U.S. Marine Corps chose not to develop a ship-launched drone for the airborne early-warning role. The decision weighs on the... read more
China's Anti-Tank Missiles are Designed To Bring Destruction From Above
*Kris Osborn* *PLA, Asia* But do they match up to the American Javelin? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *There are not a lot of details available regarding the weapon available in the report, however its existence brings some interesting parallels to mind, such as the U.S. Army’s TOW missile, Javelin anti-tank weapon or even ground-launched Hellfire missile. New Chinese-built, vehicle-mounted anti-tank missiles are being engineered to attack U.S. tanks “from above,” meaning at higher altitudes that cause more destruction with a top-down attack.

When Einstein Went to Roswell by Dr. Peter Strassberg -An Interview
I had the opportunity to speak with Dr. Peter Strassberg about his book, *When Einstein Went to Roswell*. The material about Roswell and UFOs was limited with the majority of the book dealing with his theories about astrophysics and gravity. The real problem with the book was the sixty some pages at the back that were MJ-12 documents that had been copied from the Internet and published without critical comment. Dr. Peter Strassberg About the first thing I learned during the discussion, because I asked about it, was if he had been in contact with Tony Bragalia. Bragalia had pub... read more

Harvard Psychologist Explains Why Forced Positive Thinking Won’t Automatically Make You Happy
One of the most exciting developments of the 21st century and social media culture is the abundance of positive messages we see each day, a constant reminder to strive for our best life. Our Facebook and Instagram timelines have become like a 24/7 episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show, in which seemingly every message has a dramatically positive refrain. Meanwhile inside of our minds, an entirely different picture unfolds: we’re human beings after all, and our thoughts run the gamut of emotions ranging from happiness to frustration to joy, anger, sorrow and everything in-between.

Snowshoeing on Seymour
Today I rode up to Seymour and the snow was awesome. There was a lot more than 10 cm. Seymour's not open for skiing and snowboarding yet but it will be soon. Today they were training staff on the chair lifts. Search and rescue were training new recruits in the backcountry showing them how to make snow caves and look for people buried in avalanches. I went up to Brockton Point again. What a difference from October 30th. The nice thing about winter is that all the roots and rocks are covered in snow and it's smooth sailing.

Russia's Checkmate Fighter Has Endless Possibilities

A two-seat variant could be something of a gentler introduction to the Checkmate platform, lowering the barrier of entry for new pilots while also functioning as a notional enemy target during wargames.
