UK woman diagnosed with Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever
A case of Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever has been identified in England, health officials have revealed. The risk to the public is very low, the UK Health Security Agency said today - after the case was diagnosed in a woman who had travelled to Central Asia. The illness is a viral disease that's usually transmitted by ticks and livestock. It's usually found in countries where the disease is in an endemic state and the virus is endemic in all of Africa, the Balkans, the Middle East and in Asia.

Azerbaijan launches airstrikes in Nagorno-Karabakh as tensions flare
The Azerbaijani military has violated the November 2020 ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh, launching airstrikes against the forces of the breakaway region, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Saturday. The region, which is currently patrolled by Russian peacekeepers, is internationally recognized as a part of Azerbaijan, yet it is predominantly populated by ethnic Armenians. Over the past two days, Azerbaijani troops have "entered the zone of responsibility of the Russian peacekeeping force in the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh and set up an observation post," the ministry said. "Four strikes have been conducted by a Bayraktar TB-2 unmanned drone on units of the armed forces of Nagorno-Karabakh near the settlement of Furukh," it added.

Poland should 'claim' Russian region, general says
Warsaw should seek to "claim" the Kaliningrad region from Russia, General Waldemar Skrzypczak has said. The region has been "under Russian occupation since 1945," the ex-commander of the Polish Land Forces claimed on the TV show 'Super Express' on Friday. "It might be worth asking for it, as it used to be with the Regained Territories," Skrzypczak said, referring to the eastern German territories incorporated into Poland after the defeat of Nazi Germany. "It might be worth asking for this Kaliningrad region, which, in my opinion, is part of the territory of Poland."

Biden implies US would use chemical weapons if Russia did - Sullivan has to correct him
The United States has no intention of using chemical weapons under any circumstances, National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters on Friday. The comment comes after President Joe Biden said on Thursday that a Russian deployment of such substances in Ukraine would trigger "a response in kind." Biden's statement led to speculation that the US would intervene militarily in Ukraine if Russia used chemical weapons, whether by conventional means or by using chemical weapons of its own. Biden, who has thus far ruled out direct American involvement in the ongoing conflict, added that "the nature of the response would depend on the nature of the use." Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Sullivan said on Friday that Biden's use of the phrase "response in kind" was referring to proportionality, and that "there will be a severe price if Russia uses chemical weapons." Biden, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg have all warned Russia...

Universities follow the politics, not the science
At the start of 2022, both Rachel Fulton Brown, an associate professor of history at the University of Chicago, and Donald J. Boudreaux, an economics professor at George Mason University, fed up with the draconian dictats and bureaucratic overreach of their respective institutions, published letters openly calling out their universities for their intellectual and moral failures in how they responded to the Covid pandemic. Fulton Brown's letter to UChicago president, Paul Alivisatos, and provost, Ka Yee C. Lee, lamented her school's failure to lead the charge against fashionable Covid mitigation policies, while exhorting the institution to change course, celebrate those who exhibited the courage to "stand for SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY over POLITICAL GRANDSTANDING," and acknowledge they have "students intelligent enough to see through the gaslighting and fear to the real questions we should be asking about what it means to be a great school."

The Science of Evil: A personal review of Political Ponerology
A new edition of Political Ponerology, by Andrew M. Łobaczewski, edited by Harrison Koehli, is now available on Amazon.1 This strange and provocative book argues that totalitarianism is the result of the extension of psychopathology from a group of psychopaths to the entire body politic, including its political and economic systems. Political Ponerology is essential reading for concerned thinkers and all sufferers of past and present totalitarianism. It is especially crucial today, when totalitarianism has once again emerged, this time in the West, where it is affecting nearly every aspect of life, including especially the life of the mind. When I first encountered Political Ponerology, I had been struggling to understand just how totalitarian leftism had effectively taken over the United States of America. Ever since my encounters with the rabid social justice warriors as a professor at New York University — recounted in my book Springtime for Snowflakes — I began to note, with no...

US brands India's response to Ukraine war 'unsatisfactory'
India's refusal to cast aside its longstanding friendship with Russia over the war in Ukraine is "unsatisfactory," US diplomat Mira Rapp-Hooper told an online conference hosted by the School of Advanced International Studies, while admitting it was also "unsurprising." Rapp-Hooper, director for the Indo-Pacific region on the White House's National Security Council, was specifically referring to India's recent votes at the United Nations, where it has declined to come out against Russian actions in Ukraine and remained silent in the Security Council votes on the matter. "I think we would certainly all acknowledge and agree that when it comes to votes at the UN, India's position on the current crisis has been unsatisfactory, to say the least. But it's also been totally unsurprising," she said on Friday. While explaining that India had strengthened its ties with Russia for its own safety as its relationship with China deteriorated, the American diplomat suggested the country was now...

Strange new type of solar wave defies physics
Scientists have detected a strange new type of high-frequency wave on the sun's surface, and the waves are moving three times faster than scientists thought was possible. The acoustic waves, called high-frequency retrograde (HFR) vorticity waves, were spotted rippling backward through the sun's plasma in the opposite direction of its rotation. The previously unknown type of wave was described in a study published March 24 in the journal Nature Astronomy. Scientists can't see into the sun's fiery depths, so they often measure the acoustic waves that move across its surface and bounce back toward its core to infer what's going on inside. But the unprecedented speed of the HFR waves, spotted in 25 years of data from space and ground-based telescopes, has hinted that scientists might be missing something big. "The very existence of HFR modes and their origin is a true mystery and may allude to exciting physics at play," co-author Shravan Hanasoge, an astrophysicist at New York...

Ring of Fire activity increases today, tremors hit Esmeraldas, Ecuador
A series of earthquakes hitting Esmeraldas in Ecuador on March 26th and today, March 27th 2022. Three earthquakes hit between 11 at night and 1 in the morning, with the largest measured at 5.8 magnitude on the Richter scale. Residents ran from their homes as tremors rocked buildings. Power cuts were seen, as electricity supplies were affected. Buildings were damaged by the earthquakes, with walls showing cracks and windows smashed in homes, businesses and hospitals. This is the latest in a period of tectonic activity on the Pacific Ring of Fire, including an eruption of the Taal volcano in the Philippines. Authorities are assessing this situation as it develops.

Russia considers accepting Bitcoin and Gold for natural gas
The present volume and liquidity of the Bitcoin market raises doubts about whether the peer-to-peer currency can be extensively employed in global trade at this time. Nevertheless, Russia has chosen to accept Bitcoin and gold for natural gas. The chairman of Russia's Congressional energy committee, Pavel Zavalny, indicated in a media conference on Thursday that the country is willing to embrace bitcoin for natural resource exports. According to Zavalny, Russia is willing to take a variety of currencies for its shipments, starting with natural gas, based on the buyer's desired purchase option. The chairman, nevertheless, stated that the conditions will be determined by the importing country's foreign ties with Russia.

Biden calls for unity amongst NATO members, reassures Polish president of 'sacred' commitment to Article 5
President Biden on Saturday sought to reassure Polish President Andrzej Duda that NATO would respond in lockstep if Russia expands its war beyond Ukraine and launches an attack on Poland. Mr. Biden underscored the U.S. commitment to Article 5 of the NATO charter, which spells out that an attack on one member of the alliance must be met with a collective response from all the members. The comments come amid fears that Russia could expand its aggression into Poland, which is a member of the 30-country NATO alliance. Comment: Russia has no plans to make any such moves against Poland, however it would be forced to respond should Poland threaten Russia's security; and there are worrying signs that some in Poland are quite eager to provoke Russia: Washington is transferring ISIS fighters from Syria to Ukraine via Poland

German states outlaw display of Russian army's 'Z' symbol
Authorities in Lower Saxony and Bavaria have banned the display of the 'Z' symbol that has become synonymous with the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is unclear if other German states will follow suit. Two German states on Saturday said they have outlawed public displays of the "Z" symbol used by the Russian army in their invasion of Ukraine. Anyone who brandishes the symbol at demonstrations or paints it on cars or buildings in a show of support for Vladimir Putin's war could risk up to three years in jail or a fine in Lower Saxony or Bavaria. Comment: Russia's incursion is a response to a multi-decade long provocation by the US and NATO, even Western experts and propaganda media admit that.

Lugansk People's Republic mulls attempt to join Russia through Crimea-style referendum
The head of the Lugansk People's Republic has told journalists about plans to hold a referendum The Lugansk People's Republic (LPR), one of the two breakaway Donbass territories recognized by Moscow as independent states in late February, is planning to hold a plebiscite on joining Russia "in the near future," its leader has revealed. There has been no indication that the Kremlin would accept such a demand. Last month, President Valdimir Putin recognised the independence of the LPR, but almost all of the word considers it to still be part of Ukraine. Speaking to journalists on Sunday, Leonid Pasechnik said that he thought "in the near future a referendum will be held in the republic, where people will exercise their absolutely constitutional right, and give their opinion with respect to joining Russia." The official added that he was "somehow sure that's precisely the way it will be."

Speaking to journalists on Sunday, Leonid Pasechnik said that he thought "in the near future a referendum will be held in the republic, where people will exercise their absolutely constitutional right, and give their opinion with respect to joining Russia." The official added that he was "somehow sure that's precisely the way it will be."

How to deal with a sociopath
The following are 13 rules for dealing with sociopaths in everyday life by Martha Stout in her book The Sociopath Next Door. I thought we could look at these in regards to the sociopaths who rule over us (and are probably not next door, but neither are they far away from our everyday lives). 1. The first rule involves the bitter pill of accepting that some people literally have no conscience I'm not sure that this is such a bitter pill given what we now know about the sociopath, although it is a difficult thing to come to terms with - after all, they do seem to be a lot like us, yet at the same time very different. For our purposes of dealing with the sociopath in the White House (or the UN, WEF, NIH, take your pick of institution) I think the first rule is accepting that they are there, in those places of influence, and they have no conscience whatsoever (and that's exactly the way they want it).
