World’s Largest Floating Dry Dock Was Towed Across the Atlantic to Bermuda in 1869
When Britain needed a solution for ship repairs in the Atlantic, engineers built the largest floating dry dock ever attempted, a 380' iron structure weighing over 8K tons
Built near Woolwich on the Thames, the dock was designed to lift 10K-ton ironclads like HMS Warrior & w/stand Bermuda’s warm waters
Unable to build a conventional dry dock due to porous sandstone, the Brits opted for mobility&scale, creating a self-contained U-shaped platform that could sink&raise vessels from the sea w/ballast compartments & powerful pumps
In June 1869, the dock embarked on a 4K-nautical-mile journey to Bermuda, towed in stages by Britain’s heaviest ironclads—Agincourt, Northumberland, Warrior, & Black Prince—assisted by HMS Terrible
W/closed ends to reduce drag & a sail rigged inside to capture tailwinds, the voyage reached speeds of over 6 knots
Once in service, it supported Royal Navy ops for over 30 yrs before being replaced in 1906
BEER BASED VACCINES — They will stop at nothing...
Pushing biotechnology pharmakeia into the masses via any Trojan horse imaginable.
"He has just consumed what may be the world’s first vaccine delivered in a beer. It could be the first small sip toward making vaccines more palatable and accessible to people around the world."
A virologist brewed beer with engineered yeast producing virus-like particles. He drank a pint daily for five days (plus "boosters" ), his family joined in, and indeed, their bodies produced antibodies.
Now he's eyeing "vaccine beers" for COVID, bird flu, HPV cancers... and even non-alcoholic yeast snacks.
I usually say "Grow Your Own," but hey — if it's your thing — Brew Your Own too...

⚖️ 🇺🇸 🏛 He Who Decides the Exception: Trump Should Disregard the Supreme Court’s National Guard Ruling
⬛️ Judicial overreach mustn’t be permitted to trample the public necessity.
🔶️ The Supreme Court has again reminded the country that, in the American system, the judiciary can halt executive action with the stroke of a pen—this time keeping in place a lower-court order blocking President Trump’s attempt to federalize and deploy National Guard forces to protect besieged immigration enforcement operations in and around Chicago.
🔶️ The point was that a republic cannot outsource its highest political judgments to a tribunal without hollowing out self-government. Put those threads together—Cicero’s salus populi, Aquinas’ equity, Locke’s prerogative, Hamilton’s executive energy, Jefferson’s coordinate construction, Jackson’s independence, Lincoln’s warning—and you get a tradition that modern progressives and libertarians alike often deny ...
