National Security How the U.S. Squandered Its Strategic Advantage Idle threats and munitions shortages have boxed Trump in. By Nancy A. Youssef and Jonathan Lemire The United States is running out of missiles. After five months of war with Iran, stockpiles of long-range weapons are so low...

Canada can deal. In the U.S. we have The Bill of Rights which includes our First Amendment right to free speech. BUT ! Popular speech, "I love you Mommy!" doesn't need much protection. It's unpopular speech which our First Amendment most prominently protects. Our Skokie precedent provides...

If not the only risk, a prominent risk of nude images of minors includes child porn. How such free speech restrictions should apply to family photographs of a family newborn on a bearskin rug, above my pay grade. But in matters of child welfare my preference is to err on the side of caution...

Splendid. BUT ! Those that sincerely believe prayer can reasonably be expected to do that have been disinformed. Prayer may not do that. That does not mean prayer is bad, or worthless or inferior. It's different. All that too cheerful for you? No problem. Beachgoers warned after deadly...

point: counterpoint: The notion of a static climate is delusion. Change is inevitable, ever-present in our cosmos. A tiny bit less certain is whether climate progression / evolution is anthropogenic. Scientists seem to have reached consensus that it is. BUT ! We don't absolutely NEED to...

Chip-level testing my help find some. Bad guys may try to evade such testing by putting a timer / calendar trigger on malware (software or hardware). I'm w/ R5 on this. Such matériel should be made domestically.

I figured. I doubt such water resource was merely coincidentally nearby. I wonder what they used for upper story flooring. Difficult for me to imagine them running a lumber mill. They may have been talented ornamental Silversmiths. I doubt they had much experience with steel, as in a lumber...

That's a useful insight R5. We know it's not for the nutritional benefit of consumers. Therefore Agri-Biz has a higher priority. Tragic! It's not likely the pretty colors of fruit loops appeals to the moms that buy it. So it seems Kellogg is poisoning our children for marketing / market share...

Vulgar vocabulary does not render a logical argument more persuasive. In this case it undermines its own argument by demonstrating ink that could have been devoted to information & persuasion was instead squandered rudely. from a #3,767 link: "lawmakers"? No need to tap-dance. Dr. Fauci's...

You read me like a dime novel. I had both in mind, plus a piano falling on his head, etc.

Business Kellogg says it’s removing artificial dyes from cereals by the end of this year Kellogg ! What took you so long ?! "... all of the nine currently US-approved dyes raise health concerns of varying degrees. Red 3 causes cancer in animals, and there is evidence that several other dyes...

Industrial Atrophy? The machines that keep America alive are failing. We forgot how to replace them We've finally admitted that electricity is as essential as water, but we did so too late to avoid disruption By Brian Tochman Fox News / Published August 7, 2026 5:00am...

R5, I've been studying #482. The public roadway located between ruins in foreground and escarpment in background appears to have both a T-intersection, and a bridge. If the terrain was merely a dry ravine they might have used a causeway to traverse it. Looks like a bridge to me. That suggests...

S2, Do you think President Trump will remain in the presidency until inauguration day 2029? I am ASTOUNDED this convicted felon has been allowed to do this much harm, despite his explicit ineligibility to hold the office. How is this even possible?!

I have no scientific reason to question that. My #1,525 wasn't about all viruses, only about influenza. I have decades of industrial experience with applied statistics. Not just statistical process control, but performance monitoring / evaluation, etc. That in combination with my generations...

Could be. But the weapons supply we've depleted aren't / weren't expired. The fuster-cluckery of all this is: President Donald Trump is angry because we used a lot of ammunition. What the %$#@ did you think was gunna happen D.J. ?! Compounding that, our dismally incompetent president is...

Fine. BUT ! We still benefit from being alert when meeting strangers, because while the probability that they'll be lethally aggressive may be low, the consequence is reciprocally high. R5, As you know, anthropologists weren't there then. So they're trying to deduce behavior from fragmentary...

It's complicated. The human ability to recognize and distinguish faces is complex, deeply ingrained. Some scientists assert this explains why we perceive an image of J.C. on a slice of toast. Rorschach. We need to be able to identify members of our own clan and recognize those that aren't as...
