Demockery

 

It’s taken us 245 years to make a mockery of our hard-fought, blessed, American democracy.  A shame, really, but isn’t that the way things go?  We had a pretty good run though, as did the Roman Empire, the ancient Greek civilization, the Incan and Aztec civilizations.  Historically, civilizations collapse after about 250 years.  We’re almost there.  Some last a little longer, even ‘til this very day, some of which are just getting warmed up.  I’d keep my eye on the Chinese.  They know something we don’t know, in fact, they know a lot we don’t know. 

 

5-15-2019 As hackers get smarter, America's energy industry is shoring up its defenses

America is under attack. Every day, we're besieged by a group of enemy combatants. Nameless, faceless, and spread throughout the world, this group is united by a single aim: to upend American life as we know it.

These attackers are not soldiers or terrorists in the traditional sense. They are hackers, on a mission to cause as much disruption and destruction as they can.

Foggy FDA guidance harms Americans

FDA officials are sending mixed messages about a genetic test they just approved -- and the lack of clarity could jeopardize Americans' health.

The test, from genomics firm 23andMe, is simple to use. Folks order it online and mail in their saliva samples. Within weeks, 23andMe analyzes their DNA for nearly three dozen genetic variants. Those variants can help predict how consumers would metabolize commonly prescribed drugs such as antidepressants and blood thinners.

Historically Speaking

I am a history professor at the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma.  About two years ago I was approached to write a couple columns for a paper here in Oklahoma.  They wanted to clear up some of the historical misconceptions being spread about our current political situation.  With the popularity of the columns, I continued to write more and now they are being read in papers in four states.  I do not try to sway anyone’s political ideas, just give the historical truths so readers can make better informed arguments.  For example, when politicians say we are a nation that has always e

DWR News Release: Plan ahead for decontaminating boats stored at Lake Powell

Plan ahead to decontaminate boats encrusted with mussels at Lake Powell

 

SALT LAKE CITY — If you own a large cabin cruiser or houseboat that has been in a slip at Lake Powell for more than a couple of weeks, you will need to do some advance planning and preparation before you can take your boat out for an afternoon on the lake, especially if it will be leaving from Page, Arizona, or Big Water, Utah.

 

5-13-2019 = The Green New Deal is proof that environmentalists can't do math

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Ed Markey released the Green New Deal, a plan to overhaul the entire U.S. economy and "achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions" within the decade.

The plan reads like a Saturday Night Live parody of an environmentalist's wish list. The pie-in-the-sky goals range from the merely impractical to the physically impossible.

Consider a few of the Green New Deal's unrealistic demands.
