1. Iranian "stealth fighter" looks like a clown car
By Jason Lomberg, Technical Editor
When Iran released pictures of a new stealth fighter called the 'Qaher 313', they were almost immediately debunked as either a full-scale mockup or completely photoshopped images. Rudimentary wiring, commercial-based control and an apparently non-existent engine all raised suspicion about the “clown car” of a fighter.

 Picture a Swiss Army Knife with a blunted knife, rusty screwdriver, and a broken can opener. That’s what the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter has become — a jack of all trades and master of none.

The F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) has — over the course of a highly tumultuous development period that personifies the phrase "requirements creep" — become the poster child for bloated government programs.

 2,443 @ $304.15 million each  ==>   $$$ 742 Billion

 Rueters says it will cost only...

Marriage should be designed by consenting adults

Marriage should be designed by consenting adults


I cannot figure out why society or the state should determine what a standard marriage is .... or is not.

Marriage should be a contract between adults.  It should include as much commitment or as little commitment as the participants desire.  Marriage should be about individuals joining together for self-defined purposes.

The state should not get involved.   Not to dispense goodies ( benefits ) .... not to define the marriage contract.

If there are disputes.... resolve them in court or with arbitration.  Power hungry politicos will not like this.

Politicians are ID 10 T s ... as usual

DEA targets FedEx, UPS in online-pharmacy probe

U.S. Rep. John Mica, R-Winter Park, weighs in on issue, asks DEA to work with the industry.

As usual ,  a politician deliberately or through stupidity... misses the whole point of a government versus private compnay tussle.

 There is no liberty loving reason for having drugs laws... I repeat... There is no liberty loving reason for having drugs laws.

Therefore ... there is no reason for the DEA to exist... no reason for the DEA to waste somebody's money [ taxpayers ].  No doubt DEA employees will have to be given some new job ( non-liberty threatening ) to keep them busy..... maybe counting the grains of sand in Florida.

There is no reason for FedEx or UPS to waste their time dealing with ID 10 T s from the DEA.

The DEA is less than useless.  Every move they make is a net loss for humanity and sophonts.

My focus is this entry is to ask... what is the biggest, , most profound , most compelling , issue facing humans today ?  Where can the biggest dent in the universe be made ?

I would love to hear your thoughts on this ... what do you think is #1 big picture issue for humans to deal with..... ????

Here is mine

With more and more abundance available to humans .... with the world becoming less violent every day ....  what can be done to provide a fulfilling existence for each and every human ( and sophont ? ) ?


The problem of boredom and idle viciousness
