  Rob de Wijk Power politics

  We tend to think of ourselves as living in a time when nations, for the most part, obey the rule of law - and where they certainly don't engage in the violent grabs for territory that have characterised so much of human history. But as Rob de Wijk shows in this book, power politics very much remains a force on the international scene. Offering analyses of such actions as Putin's annexation of the Crimea and China's attempts to claim large parts of the South China Sea, de Wijk explains why power politics...

  Reinier Van Meerten Gravitation by very small 'C particles

  of 0.433× 10-50 kg

  The author advices us to study ever smaller particles, rather than trying to discover bigger and bigger particles (like the Higgs boson) with ever costlier colliders. His research has produced evidence for a rapid creation of the photon like particles A (acon) from the quantum mechanical VOID, followed by a rearranging of 24 As in a circle, designated as B (belton). Four beltons, arranged into a cross, form the photon like C (cosmon). He shows that particles with a gravitational mass continuously...
