Paul Krugman: The Frauding of America's Farmers (NY Times)
Overall, U.S. agricultural exports are almost 40 percent of the value of farm production, up from just 15 percent circa 1970. Globalization hurt some parts of U.S. manufacturing, with particularly harsh effects on some small industrial cities. But the rise of China and the growth of world trade have been nothing but good news for farmers. And here's the thing: It shouldn't have been hard to predict that Trumponomics would be bad for farmers. Trump's desire for a trade war was out in the open from the beginning; protectionism is right up there with racism and anti-environmentalism as one of his core values. And a trade war was bound to hurt farm exports. Did anyone really imagine that China, an economic superpower with its own fierce nationalism, wouldn't retaliate against U.S. tariffs?
Mary Beard: Why GCSEs? (TLS)
But my irritation here may be only part of a bigger problem, or question: What exactly is this vast structure of GCSE exams for? GSCE is the grandchild of O levels and School Certificate - and the rationale then was that for some, indeed many, they were a school-leaving exam, with no more qualifications to come. Now, no one leaves education at this point, so what are these vastly cumbersome exams actually doing. We probably do need some form of testing, but this behemoth? I am not so sure.
Mary Beard: "What to see in Turkey: iconoclasm in Antalya" (TLS)
I have enthused about the Museum in Antalya in southern Turkey before, but have just been there again and seen a whole lot more things (thanks in part to my travelling companions … you can't beat going around a museum with some eagle-eyed art historians).
Paul Waldman: Democrats' chances of taking the Senate just got better (Washington Post)
Here's why this is so important: It's almost impossible to overstate how much the fate of the next president rests on who controls the Senate. If the Democratic nominee beats Trump and Democrats take the Senate, then they'll at least have a chance to enact their agenda: health-care reform, action on climate change, increasing the minimum wage and so much more. If Republicans hold the Senate, Mitch McConnell will do exactly what he did to Barack Obama: obstruct everything. He'll also - I promise you - simply refuse to allow a Democratic president to fill any vacancies on the Supreme Court and perhaps lower courts, as well. …
Alexandra Petri: "Quiz: How will you be rehabilitated after your time in the Trump administration?" (Washington Post)
So, you served in the Trump administration! You were the face of a regime that separates families, cozies up to foreign strongmen and is the source of an entire litany of horrors, and you have boldly and baldly bent the truth on its behalf. You might think, "After such a time, I will never be welcome anywhere, ever again!" but you would be wrong. This is America 2019, so the question is not if, but when! Take this short quiz to find out in what form you'll be back.
Jonathan Chait: Why Trump Wants Even More Pollution Than Industry Does (NY Mag)
But [car companies] are businesses. They might be willing to pollute the planet to make money, but it's not their objective. Trump is the product of right-wing media, which has spent years not only denying climate science but turning the issue into a zero-sum culture-war fight in which maximizing fossil fuel production is defined as victory. That, combined with the right's obsession with negating Obama-era policy accomplishments, produces a strange world in which the administration is demanding car companies and fossil fuel producers sacrifice their financial self-interest in order to accelerate climate change.
Anatolia, also known as Asia Minor, the Anatolian peninsula or the Anatolian plateau, is the westernmost protrusion of Asia, which makes up the majority of modern-day Turkey. The region is bounded by the Black Sea to the north, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, the Armenian Highlands to the east and the Aegean Sea to the west. The Sea of Marmara forms a connection between the Black and Aegean seas through the Bosphorus and Dardanelles straits and separates Anatolia from Thrace on the European mainland.
The eastern border of Anatolia is traditionally held to be a line between the Gulf of Alexandretta and the Black Sea, bounded by the Armenian Highland to the east and Mesopotamia to the southeast. Thus, traditionally Anatolia is the territory that comprises approximately the western two-thirds of the Asian part of Turkey. Nowadays, Anatolia is also often considered to be synonymous with Asian Turkey, which comprises almost the entire country; its eastern and southeastern borders are widely taken to be Turkey's eastern border. By some definitions, the area called the Armenian highlands lies beyond the boundary of the Anatolian plateau. The official name of this inland region is the Eastern Anatolia Region.

Turkey. Specifically Asian Turkey east of the Dardanelles. During the Great War (WWI), Turkey was allied with Germany against Russia, France and the UK, and in 1915 the British fleet tried to force a passage through the Dardanelles to the Black Sea with a force of old Battleships, with the object of forcing Turkey out of the war and linking up with Russian forces. In short, the fleet was turned back by Turkish artillery an mines and the later invasion from the Aegean Sea to take the European forts from the rear was a ruinous failure. Winston Churchill was (rightly) blamed for the Gallipoli debacle and was sacked as First Lord of the Admiralty, after what was left of the troops were withdrawn.

and feel that Fox News is pulling this stunt where they are all "independent of Trump" and "don't owe him any loyalty" when the truth is the exact opposite.
They're doing this to provide cover for the upcoming election season when they WILL be ALL IN for Turmp - but can point back to this very brief time and say "see? We ARE fair and balanced! Remember back when Trump was mad at us? That PROVES that we not blindly loyal to Trump"
When, in fact, they ARE all-in for Trump.
This latest bullshit is mere cover.
And I guess I shouldn't be surprised and how hard the media is falling for it.
Fox "News" IS the propaganda arm of Trump's Republican Party.
• Barbara Mandrell is the oldest of three daughters. At age six, she liked being the only child, but then her parents had another daughter. Her father knew that Barbara liked being the only child, so when he brought her new sister home, he pretended that the hospital had given them the wrong baby: "This is not our baby; it has black hair and it's just not ours, and I'm going to flush it down the toilet." He went into the bathroom, and young Barbara pleaded with him, "No, give me the baby! She's my baby!" He came out of the bathroom with the baby and let Barbara hold her, and Barbara stopped being jealous and started loving her baby sister.
• The three brothers who make up the music group Hanson - Ike, Taylor, and Zac Hanson - started singing and making music together when they were very young. Often, they would ignore a chore such as washing and drying the dishes so that they could create a new song together. No problem. Their parents would happily listen to them sing the new song - then make them wash and dry the dishes. By the way, this is the dumbest question these three brothers have ever been asked: "How did you guys meet?"
• Susan Rotolo was at one time Bob Dylan's girlfriend, and his and her photograph appears on the cover of his album Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. The relationship didn't last, and she married another man and had a son with him. One day, at Tower Records she saw the album and for fun she asked her young son, "Do you know who is in that picture?" He looked and said, "That's you, Mommy." She says, "It was cute."
• In the 19th century, when singer Emma Abbott was a little girl, she was intriguedto hear about bouquets of flowers being thrown to a prima donna on a stage. However, she worried that the prima donna would fall off if the stage should start going. Fortunately, her father was able to explain to her the difference between a stage and a stagecoach.
Christmas
• Guy Lombardo and eight other teenagers, including his brothers, arrived in the United States from Canada with plans to make it big as musicians. They got a small job in Cleveland, Ohio, and then jobs became hard to find. On Christmas Eve, they were unhappy. They had also decided to go home - defeated. But a knock sounded on the door. They opened it, and the parents of all the teenagers were there. The teenagers had been writing letters with fake cheerfulness, and their parents had seen through the fake cheerfulness. Their parents spent Christmas Eve and Christmas with them. A very successful Guy Lombardo wrote much later, "Their very presence, their cheering words, their show of faith in our ability to succeed was exactly the tonic we needed. We decided not to give up, but to keep trying. And the breaks finally came our way."
• In 1986, after the pop duo Wham!, one of whose hits was "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go," had split up, George Michael did not have a concert to sing at over the Christmas season. Feeling the desire to sing in public, but not wanting to be recognized, he wore a wig as he and some friends sang carols and popular songs - but not Wham! songs - in English pubs. He discovered that the pub customers liked the Beatles songs best, and he and his friends made £7½ in tips. By the way, when Mr. Michael and Andrew Ridgeley first became famous as Wham!, fans could still look up Andrew's address in the telephone book. Sometimes, teenaged girls went to his home and Andrew's father gave them souvenirs: Andrew's socks.
• When Lady Gaga was a child, her father gave her a special Christmas gift: The Bruce Springsteen Songbook. Her favorite song was "Thunder Road," and her father promised that if she learned to play that song, the family would take out a loan and buy a grand piano. After she became famous, Lady Gaga remembered, "So it was the hardest thing for me." The song was hard to learn, and she had trouble understanding the songbook. She said, however, "I just started reading it and eventually got it down." True to his word, her father bought a baby grand. Her family still has it. In 2010, Lady Gaga won two Grammies. She wrote on Twitter, "My dad put them on the piano I studied on for 14 yrs."

Bright suns, Star Wars fans: The TSA has lifted a ban on thermal detonator-shaped Coke bottles, which the agency initially deemed looked like replica explosives.
The bottles, which are for sale exclusively inside Star Wars lands in Anaheim and Orlando, are shaped like small orbs that resemble either a droid or a thermal detonator, depending on your point of view.
The ban came as a response to a question on Twitter to @AskTSA. A concerned traveler shared an image of the bottles, commenting "I know these look dodgy, but can they be packed in suitcase?"
@Ask TSA replied: "Replica and inert explosives aren't allowed in either carry-on or checked bags."
At $5.49, the bottles are one of the cheapest souvenirs available at Galaxy's Edge. And they're popular: Disney has limited guests to three bottles per transaction to prevent hoarding.
A Pennsylvania court has ruled that a "gun-like hand gesture" one neighbor made toward another is a crime.
In June 2018, Stephen Kirchner, 64, stopped his walk with a fellow neighbor, Elaine Natore, in Manor Township, Penn., to look a male neighbor in the eye and make "a hand gesture at him imitating the firing and recoiling of a gun," according to court documents.
The incident was captured on a surveillance video. The neighbor had previously installed six surveillance cameras due to "ongoing confrontations" with Natore, with whom he had a "no contact" order against.
Kirchner admitted that he did make the "gun-like hand gesture," but claims he did so only after the neighbor held up both middle fingers at him.
Kirchner was issued a citation for disorderly conduct for the incident and was found guilty. He appealed, arguing the hand gesture didn't "create a hazardous or physically offensive condition." Kirchner further asserted that he didn't cause "public inconvenience, annoyance or alarm," as his act was directed at one person.
In the aftermath of yet another mass shooting in America, loved ones grieve, gun control advocates call for common-sense reforms, and politicians suggest new "solutions" that won't do anything about guns. These proposals frequently focus on mental health, but a new plan before the White House to monitor "neurobehavioral" predictors of violence isn't just misguided, it's terrifyingly dystopian.
Last week, the Washington Post reported that the White House had been briefed on a plan to create an agency called HARPA, a healthcare counterpart to the Pentagon's research and development arm DARPA. Among other initiatives, this new agency would reportedly collect volunteer data from a suite of smart devices, including Apple Watches, Fitbits, Amazon Echos, and Google Homes in order to identify "neurobehavioral signs" of "someone headed toward a violent explosive act." The project would then use artificial intelligence to create a "sensor suite" to flag mental changes that make violence more likely.
According to the Post, the HARPA proposal was discussed with senior White House officials as early as June 2017, but has "gained momentum" after the mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio. The latest version of the plan, reportedly submitted to the Trump administration this month, outlined the biometric project called "SAFE HOME," an acronym for "Stopping Aberrant Fatal Events by Helping Overcome Mental Extremes." A source told the newspaper that every time HARPA has been discussed in the White House "even up to the presidential level, it's been very well-received."
A copy of the plan obtained by the Post characterizes HARPA as pursuing "breakthrough technologies with high specificity and sensitivity for early diagnosis of neuropsychiatric violence" and claims that "a multi-modality solution, along with real-time data analytics, is needed to achieve such an accurate diagnosis." That's a lot of vague buzzwords, but the general idea is clear: collect a wealth of personal data in order to flag mental status changes in individuals and determine whether those changes can predict mass violence. It's an approach that strikes George David Annas, deputy director of the Forensic Psychiatry Fellowship Program at SUNY Upstate Medical University, as ridiculous.
Less unusual is the effort to scapegoat people with mental health issues by suggesting their illness is a leading factor in these atrocities-even though that conclusion isn't supported by data.
For the first time in 360 years, compass needles at the Royal Observatory Greenwich in England will point toward true North. But why weren't they pointing there in the first place?
Earth has two North poles: geographic or true North and geomagnetic North. In most cases, compasses don't actually point toward the geographic or true North Pole. They instead point toward Earth's geomagnetic North Pole, an ever-shifting location on the Earth's surface. The space between true North and what compasses recognize as geomagnetic North is called the angle of declination. As the two locations move closer, that angle gets smaller.
Compass needles in Greenwich will finally point toward true north because the line of zero declination, where true and geomagnetic north align-also called the agonic-has been shifting west.
"This marks the first time since the observatory's creation that the geographic and geomagnetic coordinate systems have coincided at this location," geomagnetism scientist Ciaran Beggan of the British Geological Survey told the Guardian. She suspects that this alignment will only last for a few weeks.
Earth's liquid iron core is responsible for the dynamic magnetic field that surrounds our planet. Geologists have found evidence to suggest that throughout geologic history, our poles have actually switched. The ever-shifting geomagnetic North has picked up the pace in recent years, sometimes traveling as far as 55 kilometers in a year and has thrown off navigation systems around the world. These changes have been so abrupt, that scientists had to update the World Magnetic Model in January just to keep up. Due to this year's government shutdown, they had to delay the process.
Russia on Thursday unveiled a new space suit for a future spaceship, but the design may have to be changed to continue a decades-old tradition: making a stop to pee on the way to the launch.
The Sokol-M prototype suit was demonstrated at an airshow outside Moscow, as a future replacement for suits currently worn during launches to the International Space Station on Soyuz spacecraft.
The Soyuz, in use since the 1960s, is set to be phased out and replaced in the next few years with a new Russian ship called the Federation.
The maker of the suits, aerospace firm Zvezda, says they will be made of "new materials" and adaptable to different body sizes. The current suits must be custom-made for each individual.
But the new design makes it impossible to carry on one particular ritual launched by the first man in space Yury Gagarin, who had to stop and relieve himself on the back wheel of the bus that was taking him to the launch pad in 1961.
Vice President Mike Pence (R-MotherFucker) weighed in on a First-Amendment lawsuit challenging a Bible on display at a New Hampshire veterans hospital, saying under the current administration, "VA hospitals will not be religion-free zones."
"We will always respect the freedom of religion of every veteran of every faith," Pence said in a speech addressing the American Legion National Convention in Indianapolis on Wednesday. "And my message to the New Hampshire VA hospital is this: 'The Bible stays.'"
The Bible became part of the missing man table honoring missing veterans and POWS at the entranceway of the Manchester VA Medical Center. The Department of Veterans Affairs said the table was sponsored by a veterans group called the Northeast POW/MIA Network.
A federal lawsuit was filed in Concord in May by U.S. Air Force veteran James Chamberlain against the center's director, Alfred Montoya, saying the Bible's inclusion is a violation of the Constitution. The First Amendment stipulates "that the government may not establish any religion. Nor can the government give favoritism to one religious belief at the expense of others," according to the suit.
Chamberlain, a devout Christian, said in the lawsuit the table should be a memorial to all who have served, regardless of their beliefs. The suit said the original POW/MIA table tradition was started by a group of Vietnam combat pilots and didn't include a Bible as one of the items.
Examples of how human societies are changing the planet abound - from building roads and houses, clearing forests for agriculture and digging train tunnels, to shrinking the ozone layer, driving species extinct, changing the climate and acidifying the oceans.
Human impacts are everywhere. Our societies have changed Earth so much that it's impossible to reverse many of these effects.
Some researchers believe these changes are so big that they mark the beginning of a new "human age" of Earth history, the Anthropocene epoch.
A committee of geologists has now proposed to mark the start of the Anthropocene in the mid-20th century, based on a striking indicator: the widely scattered radioactive dust from nuclear bomb tests in the early 1950s.
A large wooden sculpture that strongly resembles Donald Trump (R-Cheap Veneers) was erected this week in Slovenia, home country of Trump's wife Melania, though its designer insists it is meant to represent a "statue of liberty", not the U.S. president.
Tom Schlegl's 8-metre (26 foot) statue in the village of Sela, north of the capital Ljubljana, depicts a man with blond hair and an angry expression, wearing a blue suit, white shirt and red tie. His right arm is raised with a clenched fist.
"I designed the statue because people have forgotten what the Statue of Liberty stands for. I want to alert people to the rise of populism and it would be difficult to find a bigger populist in this world than Donald Trump," Schlegl said.
Schlegl added that he did not mind that most people see his statue as representing Trump.
The 56-year-old architect said he had got the idea for the statue after a wooden sculpture of Melania was inaugurated near her hometown of Sevnica by U.S. artist Brad Downey less than two months ago.
