The Milwaukee Health Department is monitoring three patients for the Ebola virus. All are considered to be a very low risk according to health officials. The health department in Milwaukee said that it is taking appropriate steps to monitor the situation and will continue working with public health partners as needed. Previously, both Brazil and Italy ruled out Ebola in suspected cases. There are currently no cases in either country. It appears that the United States will soon be in this same boat, taking safety measures out of an abundance of caution. Brazil And Italy RULE OUT Ebola In Previous…

The U.S. Army plans to order thousands of next-generation, short-range air defense missiles to replace the aging FIM-92 Stinger. A new Army Request for Information seeks to identify companies that can deliver 11,000 Next Generation Short Range Interceptor, or NGSRI, missiles beginning in Fiscal Year 2028. The response deadline is July 6. The RFI asks companies to “provide projected unit cost estimates given a planning factor of 11,000 NGSRI missiles and 2,200 Control Launch Assemblies over a ten-year production period,” the document states. “As a planning factor, assume procurement of 200 missiles and 20 CLAs in year one (FY28) and…
This article was originally published by Philippe Lemieux at The Mises Institute. Modern economic life no longer unfolds within reality as it emerges from human action. It operates within a constructed order that substitutes itself for real processes. Governments do not engage with the economy as it is lived and experienced. They act upon abstractions that stand in for it. What is presented as analysis is in fact a replacement. Modern central banks often justify monetary policy decisions by targeting inflation indexes that no longer reflect the real cost of living experienced by individuals. While official statistics may report stable…
House lawmakers advanced a measure Thursday to slash gasoline prices at military exchanges in an effort to make fuel cheaper for U.S. service members. The proposal would authorize Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to offer a discount at exchange stores that’s equivalent to the price of the federal gas tax. The tax is 18.4 cents per gallon for regular and 24.4 cents per gallon for diesel. The proposal would also allow the secretary to cut fuel prices further in order to counteract state and local taxes. Rep. Abe Hamadeh, R-Ariz., introduced the measure, which was included — with bipartisan support —…
When the grid goes down, the Amish will not notice. That is not a figure of speech. These communities have spent three centuries building agricultural systems that function entirely without electricity, without fuel deliveries, without internet-connected equipment, and without the supply chains that modern farms depend on to stay operational. They grow food, preserve it, breed their own animals, maintain their own tools, and pass all of that knowledge to the next generation through direct daily practice. That is exactly what self-sufficiency looks like in practice, and it is exactly what most preppers are working toward. The difference is that…
The barrel and slide of the new Springfield Armory SA-35 is 4 inches shorter than the original Browning Hi-Power pistols and the original SA-35.Springfield’s SA-35 4-inch is baby in stature with big boy potential.I’ve always liked the Hi-Power pistol, partly because it fits my hand better than any other pistol and partly because of its historical allure. It has the unique distinction of being used by opposing forces during World War II. Many refer to it as the “Browning” Hi-Power, primarily because John Browning began the pistol’s initial development, and because Browning imported the pistols from FN Herstal until it…
A box of Federal 6.5 Creedmoor +Peak Terminal Ascent ammo and two loose cartridges in front of a rifle.Federal’s new 6.5 Creedmoor +Peak is supercharging the 6.5 Creedmoor with the company’s Peak Alloy Case Technology.Changing a single component of a cartridge can make a massive difference. We saw this at the end of the 19th century with the advent of smokeless powder. By simply loading existing cartridges with that instead of the old, low-efficiency black powder, their performance was massively improved overnight. Federal has just done something similar, but with case technology instead of powder.Federal’s Peak Alloy Case Technology was…
What actually cools a root cellar – depth, or earth contact? Most builders assume it’s depth, which is why so many cellars dug ten feet straight down barely outperform a shed. The real answer is how much soil wraps the structure on every side, and getting this wrong at the design stage means that nothing you build on top of it will fully work. And that’s just one mistake you probably haven’t thought about. Keep reading to find the other flaws hiding inside the cellar you already built – or the one you’re about to. You Picked the Wrong Spot…
