Travel: Hampshire Fun Days Out

Hover TravelDays out are a good way of spending time together, experiencing something new but also keeping the children occupied, taking some of the strain away from their addled parents. With this in mind a day trip to the Isle of Wight sounds like just the ticket. Usually it can take around half an hour or so to get over to the island, which does eat into a day trip. We were excited to discover that Hover Travel flies passengers over this strip of water in just 10 minutes. We’ve never been on a hovercraft. It is a very similar experience to travelling by ferry but considerably quicker.

President Trump’s Actions on Coronavirus

President Trump didn’t wait to take action on Coronavirus, from imposing swift travel restrictions on China to organizing a White House Task Force in January. These early moves—which at the time drew criticism from some in Washington as an “overreaction”—have allowed America to slow the spread of the deadly virus today.

Motoring: Citroen DS3 Crossback

“Ahhh, it’s as if the car’s greeting me,” coos my wife Caroline as she walks up to the DS3. Its door handles pop out and the power folding wing mirrors unfold. The automotive equivalent of a dog licking you to death. “I can imagine this appeals to lonely people,” she adds. This characteristic certainly draws admiration from fellow motorists I meet on our travels between Hampshire, Dorset and Wales.

MOTORING: Kia ProCeed GT Line

MOTORING: Kia ProCeed GT LineEstate cars are passé. Look around, there are shooting brakes everywhere. This term is used for estates that resemble more of a coupe in terms of style and panache. The latest such offering is the ProCeed GT Line from Kia, an elegant and eye-catching design for sure. There’s room inside for five adults and there’s a nice large boot, which swallows the Friday night food shopping with ease.

A Working Hypothesis: COVID-19 as pandemic bioterrorism

A Working Hypothesis: COVID-19 as pandemic bioterrorismA hypothesis is a proposed explanation for an event. A working hypothesis is a provisional explanation that requires further investigation before making a flat claim of accuracy.   Working Hypothesis: The COVID-19 event is a covert act—one not openly shown, engaged in, or avowed—of biological terrorism sanctioned by the top leadership of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and aimed at the United States, with the expectation that other nations—as collateral damage—would incur consequences when their populations were also exposed to the virulent pathogen to a level that would mask the focused target of the assault.

New electrically activated material could improve braille readers

WASHINGTON — Refreshable braille displays translate information from computer screens into raised characters, often along the bottom of a keyboard. But this technology can cost thousands of dollars and is limited, typically displaying a string of characters much shorter than most sentences. Researchers now report an improved material that could take these displays to the next level, allowing those who are blind or who have low vision to more easily understand text and images, while lowering cost.

Saliva test for cannabis could someday help identify impaired drivers

WASHINGTON — In the U.S., those who consume alcohol and drive are often subjected to roadside stops, breathalyzer tests and stiff penalties if their blood alcohol content exceeds certain limits. Currently, no such test exists for cannabis intoxication, although the substance is known to impair driving, among other activities. Scientists now report that they are one step closer to a convenient saliva test for measuring cannabis levels at roadside stops.

People dying equals coronavirus?  An engineered virus?

This article is intended for close study. I urge you not to jump to an early conclusion about what I'm proposing here. For example, I'm not ruling out the engineering of a virus. But an unusual twist is involved. This article is also part of a larger position. That position can be defined as:
  • AUTOMATICALLY ASSUMING THE SO-CALLED EPIDEMIC IS CAUSED BY A VIRUS IS INCORRECT.
  • THE TRUTH DOESN'T SUPPORT FEAR.
  • FEAR IS SELF-DEFEATING.
  • FEAR CLOSES DOWN POSSIBILITY.
  • DON'T CLOSE DOWN POSSIBILITY IN ANY ASPECT OF YOUR LIFE.

Automakers and Other Manufacturers Help Fight the War on the Coronavirus

During World War II, American industrial giants retooled their operations to make the United States the “Arsenal of Democracy.” Today, in response to President Trump’s metaphorical call to arms against COVID-19, America is once again flexing its industrial muscles to answer that call and produce life-saving equipment to battle the virus.

Canadians need help now - so cut their taxes

As Canadians stay home to keep their communities safe in the midst of the coronavirus crisis, millions of people are out of work and countless businesses have closed their doors. It’s an unprecedented situation. Never before have governments deliberately put their economies into a coma in order to fight a health pandemic. And with the economy at a near-standstill, governments are looking at every option to help tide people and businesses over until we can get back to something resembling normal.

How Trump is Taming the Bureaucracy and Saving Lives 

How Trump is Taming the Bureaucracy and Saving LivesFrom the start of the crisis, President Trump has been trying to figure out -- and cut through -- the bureaucracy. His latest victory is the decision by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to accept 30 million doses of hydroxychloroquine sulfate and one million doses of chloroquine phosphate for possible use in treating patients hospitalized with COVID-19 or for use in clinical trials. Trump understands that America cannot wait for a possible vaccine and that patients and their doctors need the freedom now to try alternative treatments.
