An editor on why he ignores anonymous whistleblowers – and why authors are free to publish ‘bullshit and fiction’
Just over a decade ago, in the second year of Retraction Watch’s existence, we wrote a column in the now-defunct Lab Times urging journal editors to stop ignoring complaints from anonymous whistleblowers. The Committee on Publication Ethics didn’t think anonymity was a problem as long as the complaints were evidence-based, so why should editors? And … Continue reading An editor on why he ignores anonymous whistleblowers – and why authors are free to publish ‘bullshit and fiction’ read more

DOCS HIDDEN BY TRUMP MAY BE RELATED TO RUSSIA PROBE, BEING REVIEWED BY US INTELL. WILL PROOF TRUMP KNEW ABOUT COVID PLOT FROM 2016 EMERGE?
Why would Trump go to such lengths to hide documents connected with the Russia probe? If they were connected with the Greek Appeals Prosecutor probe, Trump would do everything to try to hide them.

UK energy bills will rise 80% a year from October
London — British energy bills will rise 80% to an average of £3,549 ($4,188) a year from October, regulator Ofgem said on Friday, calling it a "crisis" that needed to be tackled by urgent and decisive government action. Ofgem CEO Jonathan Brearley said the rise would have a "massive impact" on households across Britain, and another increase was likely in January, reflecting significant pricing pressure in energy markets. He said Britain's next prime minister — either Liz Truss or Rishi Sunak — needed to take immediate action once in office next month. https://edition.cnn.com/202... read more

* Japan’s nuclear renaissance* Japan is reversing its avowedly anti-nuclear stance, restarting idled plants and looking to develop a new generation of reactors, announced Prime Minister Fumio Kishida on Wednesday.

This announcement would have seemed unimaginable a decade ago in the wake of the Fukushima nuclear disaster, which saw the plant flooded and led to three separate hydrogen explosions.
