The Uneasy Embrace: US-Pakistan Relations and the Geostrategic Puzzle of South Asia
By Inzamam Ul Haq In the intricate geopolitical theater of Asia, alliances are not forged solely on ideological lines or historic friendships. They are shaped by necessity, strategy, and ever-shifting regional dynamics. Among the most enigmatic and often misunderstood of these relationships is the long, layered, and sometimes strained alliance between the United States and Pakistan.

In recent years, subtle yet striking signals from Washington have shown a surprising tilt in American interest toward Pakistan.

SpaceX launches Crew-11 astronauts to the ISS for NASA on milestone Crew Dragon flight (video)
SpaceX launches NASA's Crew-11 astronauts to the International Space Station on a historic Crew Dragon flight. SpaceX successfully launched NASA's Crew-11 mission to the International Space Station (ISS), a significant accomplishment for commercial spaceflight and international cooperation. This mission is yet another milestone in the Commercial Crew Program, a partnership between NASA and SpaceX that has revolutionized American space access since its inception. On a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, the Crew-11 mission took off from Launch Complex 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Crew Dragon spacecraft, which was given the name "Endurance" and had already completed multiple missions to the ISS, was perched atop the rocket. The reliability of SpaceX's reusable spacecraft and booster systems, which continue to set new standards for cost-effective space travel, was reaffirmed by the successful launch. There are four astronauts aboard this mission, three from NASA and one from an international partner agency. Commander Michael Barratt, a NASA astronaut with two previous space missions under his belt, is in charge of the mission. Pilot Jeanette Epps, who is making her first spaceflight following years of training and delays, and Mission Specialist Matthew Dominick, a member of NASA's 2017 astronaut class, will be traveling with him. Completing the international team is Koichi Wakata of Japan’s space agency, JAXA, a veteran astronaut with several ISS missions to his name.

Trump order could put brakes on homeless hotel paraphernalia wagons
A few weeks ago, I wrote about a harm reduction organization that visits Fusion Studios, the homeless hotel in Denver where I live, once a week. They pass out needles as well as meth pipes, crack pipes and tooter kits (for those who snort drugs).

Tsunami Evacuations Ordered in South America, but Worst Risk Passes for U.S. After Huge Quake
Early on Wednesday, a powerful earthquake with a magnitude of 8.8 struck off the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia, triggering widespread tsunami warnings and mass evacuations across the Pacific Rim. Officials later determined that the greatest tsunami threat to the United States had passed, despite the frantic efforts of countries in South America to evacuate individuals. At a depth of 19 kilometers, the quake, one of the strongest in recent memory, occurred approximately 75 miles offshore from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. The quake's shallowness made it particularly capable of moving large volumes of water. From Japan to Chile to Hawaii, tsunami warnings were quickly issued across the Pacific Basin. Response times to emergencies were quick in South America. Chile began evacuating vulnerable coastal areas after raising its tsunami alert level to the highest level. Authorities emphasized the danger of after-waves, reminding citizens that the first wave is rarely the most dangerous. Chilean officials coordinated with local governments to evacuate thousands from low-lying areas.

Trump may release the truth about UFOs
“Assymetric Disclosure,” a movie released in late June, offers new evidence of cover-ups of UFO sightings and even retrievals of extraterrestrial craft and alien bodies from crash sites. The movie’s main sources, Tim Burchett, a Republican congressman from Tennessee, and Dr. Steven Greer, a scientist and physician, say they believe that President Trump may become known as the UFO president by finally releasing classified information about UFOs.

Could Trump Run for a Third Term?
The Joke That Isn’t Funny Anymore When Donald Trump joked that he had already served "three terms," few in the audience laughed. He smiled, as he often does when testing the boundaries between provocation and ambition. In March 2025, he said flatly: “There are methods,” referring to a possible third presidential term. Suddenly, what once sounded like satire started to feel like strategy.

Workplace Religious Expression
Lunch time! Makayla smiles, knowing she has been sitting at her desk all morning, buried in paperwork. She hides her crystals back into her desk drawer, then stands and walks to the small break room. The cravings of her prepared pita and hummus overwhelm her. As she opens the doors, she freezes. The sight of her colleagues standing in a tight circle, heads bowed and hands linked in prayer, strikes her. Her chest tightens. An awkward feeling washes over her. She hears John, her supervisor’s voice.
