HALLELUJA! – BBC Updates Editorial Guidelines to Improve Scrutiny of Think Tank Pundits
TruePublica Editor: At last, someone at the BBC has finally seen the light. It’s at the end of the tunnel there somewhere. For four years TruePublica has complained about the detrimental effects of organisations like the so-called Institute of Economics Affairs – one of the most opaque and secretive think tanks in Britain that swings way too much political influence. It has recently been caught in a cash-for-influence scandal that a decade ago would have seen the government fall.
Corbyn addresses Trades Union Congress in a display of cynicism and hypocrisy By Richard Tyler
Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn addressed the assembled union functionaries at the annual Trades Union Congress (TUC) in Brighton Tuesday in a vain attempt to boost his left credentials among workers. He did so, however, under conditions in which he has capitulated time and again to the Remain agenda of his party’s right-wing Blairites.

Arguing from authority - by making up the authority
I've noticed a rash of spurious "quotations" from famous people in recent weeks, focusing on the debate about the Second Amendment and gun "rights", but also spreading to encompass almost every aspect of individual liberties and freedoms. It troubles me that people aren't taking the time to verify the sources they cite so glibly; and it troubles me even more that *many of those sources are imaginary,* to a greater or lesser extent. The individuals named as sources never said what they're alleged to have said, rendering spurious any arguments based on those quotations. Here, for ... more »

In Brazil’s Rainforests, the Worst Fires are Likely Still to Come
*Robert T. Walker* *Environment, Americas* [image: Reuters] Brazil’s wildfires are closely linked to deforestation which Brazil had successfully slowed last decade. The number of fires this year in the Amazon is the highest since 2010, reaching more than 90,000 active fires. Farmers and ranchers routinely use fires to clear the forest. But this year’s number reflects a worrisome uptick in the rate of deforestation, which had started to drop around 2005 before rebounding earlier this decade. Many people blame the Brazilian government and its pro-agriculture policies for the curre... more »

I'm an obesity doctor. I've seen long-term weight loss work. Here's how.
The take home it to accept best effort and to enjoy the trip. good advice in itself of course, but my experience is that weight loss is managed best by some form of interval fasting forcing you to contain your daily consumption to a set time window every day. I do about six hours per day. All that allows the digestive tract to do its work and to even void long before it kicks in again. Such a program should allow the bulk of unwelcome fat to slowly leave. Obsession over fine tuning it all is a really bad idea and can only lead to bad decisions that will counter your efforts.. ... more »

Why Turkey May Never Get F-35s for Its 'Aircraft Carrier' After All
*David Axe* *Security, Middle East* [image: https://www.dvidshub.net/image/5618518/f-35s-prepare-launch] For a good reason. *Key point:* Turkey's purchase of the Russian S-40 threatens the security of any Turkish F-35s and has landed Ankara on Washington's sanctions list. Turkey’s insistence on buying Russian air-defense systems, despite warnings from NATO allies not to do so, could have serious consequences for the Turkish navy. A new assault ship the Turkish navy is building now likely will lack fixed-wing warplanes, at least in the short term. Ankara’s deal with Moscow to ac... more »

Why Leaving a Hatch Open on a Submarine Is a Really Dumb Idea

The modern submarine is not a simple machine. A loss of propulsion, unexpected flooding, or trouble with reactors or weapons can doom a sub crew to a watery grave. Also, it’s a good idea to, like, close the hatches before you dive.

Can Russia Actually Track the Air Force's F-35s?
*Mark Episkopos* *Security, Europe* [image: https://www.dvidshub.net/image/5470114/f-35s-arrive-spangdahlem] Is this true? *Key point:* Moscow claims it can track America's best stealth fighter, but that has yet to be proven. In a move that would raise eyebrows even by Cold War standards of political saber-rattling, the Russian Embassy in Washington seemed to threaten America’s F-35 fighter with Vietnam-era propaganda footage.

The Iranian air force on paper is one of the biggest air arms in the world. Its order of battle includes around 350 fighters, more than twice as many as the Royal Air Force possesses. But most of Iran’s fighters are old and outdated. The ones that aren’t old are just new copies of old designs. The air force’s squadrons fly ... more »

The U.S. Air Force’s future drone fighter is back in the air. The XQ-58 Valkyrie on June 11, 2019 took off for its second test flight over Yuma, Arizona.
