December 28, 2017 - Among liberty activists, there is a rather universal consensus on what ails our nation.

We understand that there is a concerted and deliberate effort by the establishment to undermine individual rights and constitutional protections.

We understand that there is a coordinated effort by international financiers to destabilize our economy and siphon wealth from the middle class until it shrivels up and dies.

We understand that there is an organized plan to radicalize the public along ideological lines and pit them against each other.

We understand that geopolitics and regional wars are exploited to distract us from underlying issues.

NEW YORK (PNN) - December 21, 2017 - Scientists at the Advanced Science Research Center (ASRC) at the Graduate Center, CUNY, worked to theorize and test how two layers of graphene - each one-atom thick - could be made to transform into a diamond-like material upon impact at room temperature. The team also found the moment of conversion resulted in a sudden reduction of electric current, suggesting diamene could have interesting electronic and spintronic properties. The new findings will likely have applications in developing wear-resistant protective coatings and ultra-light bulletproof films.
