The Scandalous "Teachable Ethics Scandal" Retraction (3 articles.) (# of views) (Created by Ian Hansen)
   These are various articles related to the article by Mitchell Handelsman, 'A Teachable Ethics Scandal', which was published in June in Teaching of Psychology, but has since been targeted for retraction--a matter still under review by SAGE publishers at the time of writing.The retraction appears to have been urged by former APA President Gerald Koocher who has co-authored academic work and otherwise coordinated on ethics matters with Stephen Behnke (pictured above).  Behnke is the psychologist who was ousted from the American Psychological Association in the wake of the psychologists-in-torture scandal.  Behnke and four others named in the report of the APA's internal investigation of its collusion (called the Hoffman Report) have since filed a legal complaint against the APA, against Hoffman's law firm, and against fifty other unnamed 'John or Jane Does.'

One Quarter of a Million Preventable Water Main Breaks Kill Us and Will Cost $1 Trillion in the Next 25 Years (3 articles.) (# of views) (Created by Robert A. Leishear, PhD, PE, ASME Fellow)
       Figure 1: E. coli infections kill 73,000 people in the US every year.       'Water Main Breaks Can Be Stopped - Period!       Every American city suffers from preventable water main   breaks. Every year, 250,000 US water main breaks cost taxpayers $60 billion. To   this day, water main breaks are responsible for E. coli and Listeria infections   along with copper and lead contaminations.    We are misinformed that water main breaks are caused by   cold weather, road traffic, or oldness. Southern cities claim that cold weather   breaks their pipes, where pipes are buried feet underground, and frost lines are   only a few inches deep. Forces from road traffic are woefully inadequate to   break pipes. Oldness does not break anything - otherwise - New York skyscrapers   would collapse.    We have been provided such nonsensical causes for water   main breaks for a century. The time has come to apply science rather than   fiction to stop our water main breaks.    To this end, I proved and published that a phenomenon   called water hammer breaks water mains. When valves, fire hydrants, and water   pumps are operated, repeated high pressure water hammers crack water mains.   Geysers then rip upwards through our roadways, or leaks scour out dirt under   roads to cause road collapses.    Simplified recommendations are available. See 'Water-Main Breaks in Mississippi and Across [the] U.S. Can Be Stopped'   (https://www.mississippifreepress.org/30418/water-main-breaks-in-mississippi-and-across-u-s-can-be-stopped).'  

Our Collective Predicament (3 articles.) (# of views) (Created by Blair Gelbond)
   A shift in inner values and an expanded consciousness is needed for positive external social change. How this shift can occur remains to be seen, but will need to occur on multiple levels at once. Fortunately, this change is already underway. However, given the stakes and the initial collapse of many systems,it also must occur as soon as possible. This can be seen as an initiation for our entire species into the next level of maturity.

A Confederacy of Hegemons: The Project for the New American Caliphate (3 articles.) (# of views) (Created by Greg Maybury)
With   the empire du jour embarking on further 'Groundhog Day' military adventures, in   this sweeping three part essay on the post-9/11 geopolitical milieu, Greg Maybury reflects   on how America arrived at this point, what insights might be gained by looking   back in time, and ponders what might have been and what could be.                                                                      Oh,   and who the real enemy might be after all. Depending on your viewpoint, a brave   and/or foolish undertaking. But, he argues, around 50 years after the fall of Saigon, 25 years after the Fall of the Wall signalling the end of the Cold War, and 100 years after the opening salvos of   the Great War to End all Wars (at   least until the next one arrived), Uncle Sam needs all the help he can   get.

Climate's Deadliest HIDDEN Enemy: The Clinton Political Machine (2 articles.) (# of views) (Created by Patrick Walker)
   The   series covers perhaps the most important news story of our day--one completely taboo in mainstream media. It explains how Hillary Clinton's political machine, if unchecked by   climate-activist revolt, will undemocratically crush Bernie Sanders'   presidential chances and will foist on us a candidate, Hillary Clinton,   provably inadequate by policies and character, to address our planet's climate   emergency. Part 1 is titled 'Sanders Correctly Rattles Sabers--at the Climate   Change Enemy'; Part 2, 'Clinton's Updated Tammany Hall: Destroying Democracy   AND Climate Too'; and Part 3, 'Wake Up Zombie, Kick Up a Big Stink.' The first   two parts establish the case for revolt against the Clinton machine urgently pleaded for in Part 3--the call-to-arms finale of the series.
