Support Left Independent Candidates-Build An Alternative To The Two Corporate Parties
The US midterm election is fast approaching and the Trump administration is plunging deeper into crisis. Trump’s second term has been devastating for working people. ICE thugs have murdered two more people in Houston and Maine. Billionaire tax breaks have plunged wealth inequality even deeper with more Americans reporting having to skip meals and delay doctor’s visits due to high costs.

Art Will Always Be A Place Where Freedom Lives
President Trump’s recent firing of the Kennedy Center’s board of directors and appointment of himself as its chair underscores the power of art and its threat to political agendas. The administration understands that art lives beyond the control of government. Driven by the force of human imagination, it demands total freedom, as it opens our minds to the possible and explores the outer limits of what it means to be human in a big, mysterious universe.

Opinion - It’s up to the courts to save the US Steel Nippon deal
President Biden made a mistake blocking the U.S. Steel-Nippon merger. The onus is now on the courts to recognize this error and ensure the continued credibility of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States process by allowing the deal to proceed. Throughout his career — especially over the last four years — Biden has fought hard for American workers while continuing to prioritize our nation’s national security.

Opinion - I’m a Biden appointee. But on AI, I’m hopeful for a Trump-Musk ‘moonshot’
If you take a step back, it’s impossible not to marvel at our technological ingenuity. We have created supercomputers that fit in our hand. We are creating human organs on 3D printers. We may soon put humans on Mars, a mere 140 million miles away. It has been 55 years since the first “moonshot,” where Americans landed the first manned spacecraft on the moon.
Tim Walz is a leader shaped by integrity and service. I would know. I was his roommate
Living with someone as a roommate reveals a lot about their character. You see them at their best and worst, in moments of triumph and frustration, and you come to understand what truly drives them. That’s why I can confidently say that Tim Walz is not just a dedicated public servant; he is a man of unwavering character, deep integrity, and selfless leadership.
A National Championship That Could Help Heal Our Political Divide
When the San Francisco 49ers face off against the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday, people who think of themselves as “red” or “blue” will set aside those political differences for a few hours to revel in a shared passion for football, food and halftime extravaganzas. Related: Jackpot: Super Bowl, Taylor Swift Expected to Bring Economic Boon to Las Vegas So, if we can come together over a football game, why is it so hard to do so otherwise?
Unless nationalists start trying to understand unionism, Leo Varadkar will have to live forever if there's to be a united Ireland
How long do you think Leo Varadkar will live? I don't mean that he is looking unwell these days. It is just that he said last week there will be a united Ireland in his lifetime and I was wondering how many years he thinks he has left. The SDLP says he must live for another seven years to see unity, but Sinn Féin appears to believe he only has to hang on for about another fortnight. If nationalists are so confident of an impending united Ireland, what are they doing to achieve it?

Mean-field model for nematic alignment of self-propelled rods
Abstract Self-propelled rods are a facet of the field of active matter relevant to many physical systems ranging in scale from shaken granular media and bacterial alignment to the flocking dynamics of animals. In this paper we develop a model for nematic alignment of self-propelled rods interacting through binary collisions. We avoid phenomenological descriptions of rod interaction in favor of rigorously using a set of microscopic-level rules.
CU South needs a Plan B Original
By Patrick Murphy The argument that there is “No Plan B” is a fallacy. Letters about, and the guest opinion by Bob Yates, regarding the CU South flood mitigation project often mention that there is “No Plan B.” That’s not true and a kind of threat to dare to think critically. There will be a vote on the 100-year flood plan and the agreement with CU this November.
Prehistoric Planet Review
Almost a century ago, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle showed The Lost World (1925), a film filled with prehistoric creatures, to a meeting of the Society of American Magicians, and impishly refused to disclose the origin of the film. Willis H. O’Brien’s stop-motion dinosaurs were impressive enough to convince at least some of the audience that the footage might have been taken of real animals. Prehistoric Planet brings the same feeling of wonder to the modern era.
St. Louis media legend Patrick Murphy discusses St. Louis’ Irish history
St. Louis strangers now connected forever after kidney donation ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. -- A flag that reads "Donate Life" flies proudly outside the Sword family home in St. Louis County. "I always had an organ donation in the back of my mind, and I signed the back of my driver's license. In case I ever die, they could have whatever they wanted," said Chuck Sword. But he felt like he could do more.
Sen. Joe Manchin Does Right; BBB Dead - For Now
The proponents of the socialistic Build Back Better legislation, which was the centerpiece of President Biden’s legislative agenda, were (and remain) apoplectic over U.S. Senator Joe Manchin’s refusal to support its passage. Sen. Manchin did the right thing for the right reasons – which is a breath of fresh air in the often fetid world of legislating and politics. Even better, he will survive and thrive from a political standpoint. Read Full Article »

Climate change increases power outage risks, but local clean energy can help

MURPHY'S LAW Always wishing the weather was different
How about that weather. If you can talk about the weather you can talk to anyone. I had a discussion in a newsroom many years ago. Someone did not think weather was a story, while I maintained it was. His point was not about major storms, but the normal weather — rain, snow and wind. I think weather can always be a story, and judging from the conversations we all have, I think I’m right.

Wild fox cub hand-raised by Irish woman cannot stop smiling for the camera
A BABY fox hand-raised by an Irish woman and her father has grown into a cheeky, friendly and ridiculously photogenic vixen. 'Foxy' and her littermate were orphaned after their mother was killed, and were found and subsequently adopted by Cliodhna O'Leary and her father, Donal. Aged just three weeks, the cubs were lovingly hand-reared in the O'Leary family home in Macroom, County Cork, being fed round the clock with bottle milk and puppy nuts.
'It's interesting and soulful' - Shane MacGowan defends Jon Bon Jovi's cover of 'Fairytale of New York'
THE POGUES icon Shane MacGowan has defended Jon Bon Jovi’s cover of the band’s 1987 Christmas classic Fairytale of New York. Bon Jovi sparked fury online after announcing he had “an early holiday gift” for fans. The Livin on a Prayer star released a three-song festive EP earlier this week featuring covers of Tom Petty’s Christmas All Over Again and Elvis Presley’s If I Get Home on Christmas Day. However, it was his take on The Pogues’ signature hit that dominated much of the online chatter.

Honoring our privilege of public education
This is American Education Week—November 16-20, 2020—and it presents all of us with a wonderful opportunity to celebrate public education and honor individuals who are making a difference by ensuring that every child receives a quality education.

In our lifetime
In our lifetime, we have witnessed events which appear to be sudden and “out of the blue.” In reality, these are developing events quietly happening behind the scene to which we are unaware of the possible ramifications until there is a flash point. Recognize too, the outcomes of these developing events can be positive or negative depending on the circumstances.

Ambiguity Makes for Better Horror in 1982's 'The Thing'
There’s Something Evil Lurking in the Fog After the success of his groundbreaking hit Halloween, John Carpenter eschewed the slasher genre in favor of The Fog, an atmospheric tale about a small California coastal town that becomes literally haunted by its past. Although it was received well in its time, Carpenter’s supernatural tale of revenge from beyond the grave failed to garner the same sort of fan enthusiasm as many of Carpenter’s later works.

Steven Spielberg’s Jaws 45 Years Later There are innumerable critical choices involved in the production of a great film, but one of the most apparent (and important) is determining how an important character first appears. It can happen in a flash, or slowly build to a satisfying reveal, but however achieved, much of a movie’s success can hinge on these moments.

'A Fold Apart' Review: Simple Lines With Some Wrinkles
Though its attempt at exploring the pitfalls of a long-distance relationship winds up coming off as a bit too paper-thin, Lightning Rod Games’ A Fold Apart still manages to provide modest engagement for puzzle solvers. A clever folding mechanic that demands players examine and understand two sides of a situation works as a nice metaphor and bends the mind just enough to overcome a simplistic narrative and slightly plodding gameplay.
