Cracks Appear In Climate Consensus As Germany's Energy Minister Admits Renewables Are Ruining The Country

Can The Courts Delete Democracy? Authored by Jeffrey Tucker via The Epoch Times, Our forefathers had the idea of creating a government of, by, and for the people. The crucial tool to make this possible was the vote: The people would have their way, within law, and through their elected representatives. The idea was rooted in the ancient idea of democracy but with a republican twist—it would not be mob rule. There would be checks and balances. There would be inviolable rights. Everyone on the planet Earth at the time said that this would...

US Scientists Crack Superconductor Code - Zero Energy Loss Moves Closer To Reality Authored by Prabhat Ranjan Mishra via Interesting Engineering, Researchers in the United States have unlocked secrets of high-temperature superconductors. Small differences in how atoms are arranged in a crystalline lattice can strongly affect superconductivity. (Representational image) Wildpixel/Charles Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have discovered how tiny changes in superhydride structure enable superconductivity at near room temperatures but extreme pressure - offering clues for designing more practical superconductors. “These experiments show what the upgraded APS can do. We...

Iran's Tolling Regime On Hormuz Chokepoint Would Set "Dangerous Precedent," IMO Warns The ceasefire deal in the six-week US-Iran conflict remained in doubt by late week, as Israel intensified its bombardment of Beirut, Tehran kept the Hormuz chokepoint closed, and negotiators prepared to meet on Friday even as both sides declared victory.
