Background According to the document’s introduction: “In absence of all foreign materials or wall surfaces, phase transitions of the type vapor-to-liquid or liquid-to-solid are blocked by an activation-free-energy barrier. The latter arises from surface-free energy increases resulting from appearance of embryos of the more condensed phase. The thermodynamics of this type of phase transition are examined in Part I for the particular case of vapor condensation, a case for which theory and experiment now stand in tolerably good agreement. In Part II, kinetic aspects will be considered. ” Document Archive Hemogeneous Nucleation of Vapor Condensation, 1962, Dr. James McDonald Reports [23 Pages, 3.1MB]…
Warning: The below contains strong language. Background On January 12, 2018, CNN published the following: President Donald Trump expressed frustration behind closed doors with people coming to the US from “shithole countries,” sources told CNN on Thursday.

Though uncharacteristically, many networks (arguably, mostly CNN) had no problem saying “Shithole” without any type of censorship in the form of a “beep” or…
Background According to the document: “The purpose of this study is to review and assess Warsaw Pact country activities in para physics research. This includes assessment of trends, current research, and potential future achievements. Main concentration is on the USSR. Those topics that are considered of high potential are emphasized, although other topics that may have an indirect influence are also considered. This study has also been updated to include recent paraphysics research and activities that have occurred since the 1978 publication of the original study.” Below, you will find two releases of the document. First, you will find the…
Background According to the document: “Analysis of all plots against the United States and US interests between 2001 and 2010 by action-oriented indicted Islamic extremists indicated there was an 11 percent increase in the number of incidents after 2006 as compared to the earlier half of the decade. The FBI and the Joint Regional Intelligence Center (JRIC) assess [[ REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED ]] based on available and reliable open source reporting, that US person activity drove the post-2006 rise, as the group was five times more active than foreign nationals in the same timeframe.” Document Archive Intelligence Assessment: “Decade in Review: Self-Selecting…
