Antimatter-driven Deceleration at Proxima Centauri
[image: Antimatter-driven Deceleration at Proxima Centauri] Although I’ve often seen Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes cited in various ways, I hadn’t chased down the source of this famous quote: “When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” Gerald Jackson’s new paper identifies the story as Doyle’s “The Adventure of the Blanched Soldier,” which somehow escaped my attention when I read through the Sherlock Holmes corpus a couple of years back.

Two-Front War? Washington Pushes China Into Russia's Arms
First it was a US demand that China vote to condemn the Russian invasion of Ukraine, then suspiciously-sourced accusations that China was to provide military equipment to China, to now a sudden new round of sanctions on China. Does Washington really believe China will act as the US proxy in the region? Does Washington want to take on both Russia AND China (and maybe India)? Also today, US firms not told to leave Russia, White House claims. And, Ukraine's Zelensky bans opposition parties and all non pro-Zelensky media. Watch today's Liberty Report: read more

We Must Now Learn the Lesson of 1914, Not the Lesson of 1938.
[image: undefined] With proponents of military intervention and war, it's always 1938, and every attempt to substitute diplomacy for escalation and war is "appeasement." Last week, for example, Ukrainian legislator Lesia Vasylenko accused Western leaders of appeasement during Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, stating, "This is the same as 1938 when also the world and the United States in particular were averting their eyes from what was being done by Hitler and his Nazi Party." The week before that, Estonian legislator Marko Mihkelson declared, "I hope I’m wrong but I smell 'Munich' h... read more

Who can forget "Leave the gun. Take the cannoli"?

I can't think of a single gangster or crime movie I've watched since then that doesn't owe at least something to The Godfather in terms of its ethos.

Food Is Essential And Fertilizer Is Expensive; A New RNA Sequencing Study May Improve Both
When a giant chunk of the work force is told to stay home, and even paid to do it, the results can be felt for years.

Food is simultaneously a strategic resource, a commodity, a values issue, and a commodity.

The US economy: death by a thousand cuts?
The fabled "death by a thousand cuts" refers to a traditional method of slow, lingering, extremely painful execution used for over a millennium in China, right up until last century. In theory at least, no one cut would be lethal in and of itself (unless the executioner had been bribed, or was feeling merciful); rather, it was their cumulative effect that eventually overwhelmed the body's ability to resist. That can be applied to economies as well. It certainly describes very well the state of the US economy at this moment. The "cuts" are different economic problems that al... read more
