3…………> Mr. “Moon” Bezos: New Subsidiary

In his relentless trek to purchase the solar system, and make it a fully owned subsidiary of  Amazon.com,  its founder Jeff “Moon” Bezos envisions a future where humans will have to leave Earth, leaving the planet for “residential and light industrial” activities only, proposing to partner with “junior” government organizations like NASA to speed up the possibility of creating a permanent settlement on the Moon.

Mr. Bezos is the world’s richest person, worth about $176 billion, and in 2000 founded aerospace manufacturing company Blue Origin with the goal of reducing the cost of travel to space.


“We will have to leave this planet. We’re going to leave it, and it’s going to make this planet better,” Mr. Bezos told GeekWire.

The only question left to answer now is whether or not Mr. Bezos will make the White House a museum, and then get rid of its current occupant and sworn enemy Mr. Trump, appointing him to a position of an “honorary” doorman of his celestial office on the Moon.

4…………> Glioblastoma Treatment: UK

The standard treatment for glioblastoma, being the most aggressive of brain tumors in adults, involves removing the tumor followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, with patients living on average for only 15 to 17 months after surgery.

 
A vaccine could help to significantly extend the lives of people diagnosed with the brain cancer, as patients with glioblastoma treated with immunotherapy drug DCVax who took part in a UK study lived more than twice as long as those on standard treatments in many cases.

1…………> Mr.Xi Trojan Horse: Down Under

 

“Under the uncompromising leadership of President Xi Jinping, China’s activities have become so brazen and so aggressive that we can’t ignore it any longer,”  former Turnbull advisor John Garnaut told the US House Armed Services Committee.

 

“Foreign actors covertly attempt to influence and shape the views of members of the Australian public, the Australian media, officials in the Australian government,” ASIO’S director-general Duncan Lewis agreed, again describing the scale of foreign intelligent activity against Australia as unprecedented as unveiled in a top-secret report has raised concerns that the Chinese Government has attempted for decades to influence Australia’s political parties and constitutional process. 

 

The man with “soft smile” and “steel hand”, China President Mr.Xi certainly is propagating a “new styler of socialism” intended to undermine Western democracies and install a network of global communist governments across the world, ain’t he?

2…………> Recovery Sites: US Air Force

QUANG NGAI PROVINCE, Vietnam (AFNS) — The day Army Sgt. 1st Class Tommy Murphy died is still engrained into his daughter’s mind.

It was April 7, 2001, and Tycoria Johnson was just 9 years old. On that Saturday, Murphy, along with six other American service members and nine Vietnamese counterparts, departed on an MI-17 helicopter to investigate a potential recovery site.
They were part of a Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency mission in search of the remains of fallen service members from the Vietnam War.
Her father was a team sergeant, she said, who supervised and did much of the planning for the team.

But as the weather worsened, the helicopter veered off course and collided with a mountain hidden by clouds in central Vietnam. No one survived.

Johnson, now a senior airman based in Japan, recently volunteered for a joint mission with DPAA, where her father once worked as a mortuary affairs specialist.

 

“He would talk about his missions a lot,” she said, recalling the videos he would show her of people digging at excavation sites. “I knew that he enjoyed it and I think he would be surprised that I actually signed up to do it.”

On this #MemorialDay, watch and listen as members of the #USNavy Ceremonial Guard use poetry in motion and words to share the meaning behind today’s holiday.

5…………> Applied Global Warming: Oman

The cyclone Mekunu with wind gusts of 125 mi/h dumped three years’ worth of rainfall in a single day and leaving 13 people dead in the Gulf country of Oman and neighbouring Yemen, deluging a major city leaving eight people are still missing. 

 

The “extremely severe” cyclone left holiday destinations with empty tourist beaches, littered with debris and foam from the churning Arabian Sea.


The Port of Salalah remained closed, its cranes secured against the pounding rain and winds.
