The Presidents Commission All Volunteer Armed Force Web S0243Anochi.com.
The Commission unanimously believes that transitioning to an all-volunteer armed force is feasible and desirable. While maintaining national security, an all-volunteer force would better support democratic values of individual freedom and choice. The Commission estimates that improving pay and conditions to attract 75,000-150,000 additional volunteers annually would allow maintaining a force of 2.5-3 million without conscription. Current first-term pay is inequitable at around 60% of comparable civilian pay. The Commission's recommendations, if implemented in FY1971, would cost an estimated $3.3 billion, including a $2.7 billion pay increase but accounting for $540 million in additional tax revenue. This would help establish an effective

על סיפור ההלאמה של מפעלי האשלג שהוקמו ביוזמה פרטית והון פרטי ועל רקע המאבק האידאולוגי בין השקעות והון פרטי לבין בעלות ציבורית.
בשנת 1952 הלאימה מדינת ישראל את חברת האשלג שהוקמה ב-1 בינואר בשנת 1930. זאת היתה חלק מהאסטרטגיה שדחקה השקעות פרטיות אל מחוץ לישראל והובילה לשליטה ממלטית מלאה בענפי הכימיה והמחצבים. מפעל האשלג היה אחראי לכמחצית מכלל הייצוא של מדינת ישראל בתחילת שנותיה ומוכר גם כ"מפעלי ים המלח" הוקם ונוהל על ידי משה נובומייסקי כיזמות קפיטליסטית המבוססת בהון פרטי והשקעות בינלאומיות. לפניכם מסכת האירועים כפי שהיא מתוארת במחקרו של דוד לוי-פאור. מתוך ספרו של דוד לוי-פאור," היד הלא נעלמה: הפוליטיקה של התיעוש בישראל".

Yaakov Kirschen MEMES and the viral spread of IdeasAnochi.com.
This document summarizes Yaakov Kirschen's work studying political cartoons and antisemitism as a visiting fellow at YIISA. It describes how he collected cartoons from different time periods and places dating back to the 19th century, and categorized the common codes and tropes used to dehumanize and stereotype Jews. These included depicting Jews as demonic, blood-drinking vermin who control the banks/media and kill babies. The document outlines how these codes have evolved and spread over time and locations like viruses, with some motifs remaining consistent from Nazi propaganda to modern cartoons. It stresses the importance of documenting these trends to understand the "viral" nature of antisemitism and resist its normalization

2022 marks the 6th year in which the Israeli Atlas Award event will be held in cooperation with the Ayn Rand Center, TheMarker and other leading partners such as the Prometheus foundation, Dow Gr. and Karyopharm Therapeutics.

This document summarizes a study conducted by the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) on the system costs of decarbonizing electricity generation with high shares of nuclear power and renewables. The study models eight scenarios with different technology mixes to achieve a 50g CO2/kWh target by 2050. It finds that a balanced mix of variable renewables, nuclear, and other dispatchable generation results in the lowest system costs. High shares of variable renewables increase costs due to integration challenges, though these costs can be reduced through policies that value reliability and flexibility. The study provides policymakers with insights on cost-effectively achieving deep decarbonization of the electricity sector.
יום ראשון השבוע אזל החשמל בישראל. ככה. כמו שקראתם. כושר הייצור פשוט מוצה. תחנות הכוח שלנו הגיעו לקצה יכולתן.
לכן, בשעה 13:00 קיבלו צרכני חשמל גדולים הודעה שלפיה אם למשך ארבע שעות, בין 17:30 ל-21:30, יואילו בטובם להתנתק מהרשת ולא לצרוך חשמל — הם יקבלו בתמורה סכום נדיב למדי. עד פי 15 מעלות החשמל שהיו צורכים, היישר לכיס. דיל לא רע. "השלה מרצון" שמו.
