What? A Sane Defense Policy?
By Biscuit, September 18, 2009
The Obama administration has taken a whole series of steps towards a sane defense policy. This is diametrically opposed to a foolish and expensive policy that believes any defense action or spending is good, especially if it looks aggressive.
So now we’ve eliminated a few hundred billion of spending on missile defense shields that don’t work. There’s a reason we called ballistic missile defense “Star Wars” back in the 1980s: it’s never been more than science fiction. At least Newsweek is getting it right – it may look good on a TV news graphic, but that’s not the same as working in the Real World.
Some Wedding Photos
By Dr. Rick Smith, September 7, 2009
I’ve finally posted some photos from Ellie and Kelsey’s wedding. Click on the link in the previous sentence, or on the “Photos” link above. So far I’ve posted photos from the preparations, right up to the ceremony itself, and from our reception out in Minnesota several weeks later.
I still have another thousand to sort through of the ceremony itself. This includes dozens of donations from family and friends. It also includes the trove taken by their two professional wedding photographer friends, Erin Chapman and Hillary Harvey, who provided hundreds of top-quality photos. I almost had things sorted before Kelsey and Ellie appeared with a dozen or so CDs chock full of more images.
