🇺🇸⚡️- Boeing has been selected to build the U.S. Navy's sixth-generation fighter jet, the F/A-XX. The aircraft is intended to replace the Navy's fleet of F/A-18E/F Super Hornets and EA-18G Growlers in the 2030s.
The contract marks the second big win for Boeing during President Trump's second term, after the company was awarded the U.S. Air Force's F-47 program in 2025.

Researchers discovered a new gentoo penguin species, Pygoscelis kerguelensis, living on the Kerguelen Islands in the Indian Ocean
This is the first new penguin species identified in over 100 years, with the last being the northern rockhopper penguin in 1921
There are four different species of gentoo penguins, which all have genetic differences, but Pygoscelis kerguelensis was previously unknown to scientists

🇺🇸 The U.S. Army is putting wearable drone and RF detection directly on soldiers.
LA startup Heaviside Industries has secured a $99M Army contract for its body-worn MOTH spectrum analyzer, giving soldiers real-time RF awareness while operating at the edge.

In a report by "Russia 1" about a mobile fire group of the Russian Armed Forces operating in the Rostov region, a new portable air defense missile system, codenamed "Iva," was shown.
It bears a striking resemblance to the Chinese MANPADS Qianwei (QW), specifically the QW-18 and QW-19 versions, which are known in Iran as Misagh-3. It is difficult to determine the exact version without examining the markings, and there is one additional issue: the technical markings appear to have been deliberately erased.
Missile systems of this family can engage targets moving at speeds of up to 400 m/s at altitudes from 10 to 4000 meters, with a range of up to 5500-6000 meters.

My book projects aim to bring illuminated manuscripts back to publishing, creating beautifully illustrated editions of the great legendary, poetic, and heroic texts of the medieval world.
I'm working to build a whole collection of fine edition books that ground the great texts of the Western canon fully in the artistic world in which they were born, to bring the tales alive with the language and aesthetic spirit of their own times.
I began in 2024 with Beowulf, an Anglo-Saxon tale of an even older Scandinavian hero-king.
Proceeding into (though not exhaustively through) the wonder-tales of the far north, in 2025 I undertook the Poetic Edda in Old Norse alongside a modern English translation.
Along the way I'm building projects for artists, students, and makers of all sorts, resources like the Arthurian program that will give them everything they need and walk with them through the immensely fulfilling process of creating their own majestic illuminated book.
Next up is the Gawain and the Green Knight project we're launching on Kickstarter in just a few days. This classic Arthurian tale will launch us into a whole series of subsequent projects like "Parzival" and "Le Morte d'Arthur". This will be an absolute gem in any home library or collection! Check it out and sign up to be notified when it launches at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tamburngospels/gawain-and-the-green-knight-an-arthurian-wonder-tale

🇺🇸🇵🇸🇮🇱⚡️- The U.S. Senate blocked a resolution that would require the Trump administration to report to Congress about the increasing violence by Israeli settlers in the West Bank.
The vote was 51-47 and largely along party lines, with Republican Senator Rand Paul joining Democrats to support the resolution while Democratic Senator John Fetterman joined Republicans in blocking it.

It should be noted this is a commercial off the shelf acquisition

These spectrum analyzers simply display RF activity on a given frequency, without further processing they do not detect or identify drones. They do nothing to solve fiber optic or AI drones. Spectrum analyzers generally provide information overload to undertrained troops.
For these to be effective, basics of radio theory and drone RF must be instructed at all levels of the U.S. Army.

While much was made of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) being revoked for over 330,000 Haitian squatters in late July, a mere 530 individuals have been deported since then.

US: Deportations to Haiti Endanger Lives
Since ending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haiti in late July 2026, US authorities have deported hundreds of Haitians back to their country, where they face threats to their lives and safety and receive little to no support.
