A Johns Hopkins University medical professor slammed America's elite universities - including those in the Ivy League - for 'anti-scientific and cruel' COVID policies that ignore how little risk the virus actually poses to college students. Dr. Marty Markay blamed groupthink at such higher learning institutions as Georgetown, Cornell, Princeton, UMass and Emerson for creating undue harm on the mental health of college students, in an article published on Bari Weiss' Common Sense substack, Over the last six months, Markay wrote, the risk of a person 15 to 24 dying of COVID was 0.001 percent - and those who did...

Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw of Texas tore into Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene for 'playing the victim' after she repeatedly railed against Twitter over its suspension of her account for posting 'covid misinformation.' And the lawmaker said she was either a Democrat or an 'idiot' after she went after him for saying the FEMA should set up COVID testing sites to help counter the rapid spread of the Omicron variant, which saw a stunning daily 1 million coronavirus infections Monday. The Biden administration has been setting up such sites amid the spike in infections. The former Navy SEAL, who has tangled...

Egeli - Design and Operation of Lenr Reactors George Egely Contrary to the general belief, LENR phenomenon is much richer than generally expected. Usually the electrochemical or hot nickel, hydrogen diffusion-based reactors are known. Most of the published test results are from this area. Even in this area there are less commonly known, smart reactor designs, like Matsumoto's flat bottom cathode, light water-based reactors, or Parkhomov's separate heater/diffusion chamber reactors. Some of these reactors are discussed. The other major group is the dust-based, oscillating plasma reactors. In fact, this is the most important, most frequent form of LENR in...

To corrupt media, Democrats, and Big Tech, anyone who protested the 2020 election is no different than the fools who stormed the U.S. Capitol. On the one-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, the corporate media is working overtime to convince the American public that Republicans as a whole stormed the nation’s beacon of democracy at the beginning of 2021 and have waged a war on all that is good and decent. While lunatics and fools did invade the Capitol last January, tens of thousands of Americans peacefully assembled to demand answers from the government about what they believed...

As Omicron cases continue to surge, a new COVID-19 variant with 46 mutations has been identified and it is spreading through a region in southeastern France. Twelve cases have been reported so far. Information on the new variant is extremely limited, but it is thought to have originated in Cameroon and carry multiple mutations in the spike protein. The area most affected, which is near Marseille, has shown a significant increase in hospitalizations, but it is possible that lower vaccination rates and an older population may be to blame and it remains far too early to draw conclusions on the...

Migration to Florida is being fueled in part by a very interesting factor: school choice. An exodus is underway from New York City and its surrounding environs. Many Jews are leaving the Big Apple and moving to the Sunshine State. And their migration to Florida — America’s Promised Land — is being fueled in part by a very interesting factor: school choice. “Many young families up north are enticed by Florida’s robust menu of state-supported private-school scholarships,” writes Allan Jacob in The Wall Street Journal. “These programs make private school tuition far more affordable in Florida than in New York...

A new COVID-19 vaccine, developed by researchers from the Texas Children’s Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine, is being offered patent-free to vaccine manufacturers across the world. Human trials have shown the vaccine to be safe and effective, with India already authorizing its use as production ramps up to over 100 million doses per month. The vaccine has been named Corbevax and it is based on a traditional protein-based technology that has been safely used for decades. Like other COVID-19 vaccines, Corbevax focuses on the coronavirus spike protein, but instead of using mRNA to direct our cells to produce those...

Webb sunshield tensioning. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center Conceptual Image Lab The Webb team has completed tensioning for the first three layers of the observatory’s kite-shaped sunshield, 47 feet across and 70 feet long. The first layer – pulled fully taut into its final configuration – was completed mid-afternoon. The team began the second layer at 4:09 pm EST today, and the process took 74 minutes. The third layer began at 5:48 pm EST, and the process took 71 minutes. In all, the tensioning process from the first steps this morning until the third layer achieved tension took just...

Sometimes I give my peers in conservative media too much credit. When a story broke a couple of days ago that an insurance company reported a 40% increase in death claims recently, I didn’t drop everything to write up an article. I assumed it would get massive coverage on right-leaning outlets since it’s the smoking gun that only requires a little investigation and common sense to demonstrate the primary source of the increase is the vaccines. When it popped the next day on The Gateway Pundit, I figured from there it would blossom. We got it up on The Liberty...

There are wedding bells in Donald Trump Jr.'s future. The eldest son of former president Donald Trump is engaged, according to multiple outlets. He popped the question to former Fox News anchor Kimberly Guilfoyle more than a year ago on New Year's Eve 2020, per DailyMail.com. However, it wasn't until New Year's 2021 that she seemingly revealed her engagement ring to the public while sharing a photo with Don Jr. at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Fla. "Tonight was extra special celebrating @donaldjtrumpjr's birthday," Kimberly, 52, wrote on Instagram. "Don, you are strong, smart, courageous, funny and the love of my...

MEMORIAL OF SAINT ELIZABETH ANN SETON, RELIGIOUS MARK 6:34-44 Friends, today’s Gospel shows Jesus’ compassion for the multitude in the desert. “When Jesus saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, for they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.” There is the motif of the people Israel in the desert after their escape from Egypt. Isolated, alone, afraid, without food, they clamored for something from Moses. Here we see people who are dying to be fed, and a prophet who is under threat of death. This crowd around...

A woman in Argentina stripped down to her underwear and attempted to use her dress as a face covering to get around an ice cream parlor’s mask mandate, video shows. “Don’t ask for my face mask, I’m putting it on,” she boldly tells the staff at the store in Godoy Cruz, a city in the western province of Mendoza, before she strips down. The surveillance footage also shows a man approach the counter with his three daughters as the comical scene unfolds.
