OOPS! MIT Researchers Debunk Global Warming Data...Report Confirms President Trump Was Right To Pull Out Of Paris Climate Agreement * 100percentfedUp.com
"“Scientists” were exposed for manipulating climate data during the 2011 ‘Climategate’ scandal when 5,000 emails were released from scientists proving that the science behind their studies is inconclusive and mostly a result of manipulating climate data to fit the political message they were trying to convey.
Three themes emerged from the emails that were released in the Climategate scandal: "

How did dogs become our best friends? New evidence - BBC News
"Dogs most likely evolved from wolves at a single location around 20,000 to 40,000 years ago, a study suggests.
Previously, it had been thought that dogs were tamed from two populations of wolves living thousands of miles apart.
...said the process of dog domestication began when a population of wolves moved to the outskirts of hunter-gatherer camps to scavenge for leftovers.
''Those wolves that were tamer and less aggressive would have been more successful at this," he explained.
"While the humans did not initially gain any kind of benefit from this process, over time they would have developed some kind of symbiotic relationship with these animals, eventually evolving into the dogs we see today.''
...The research, published in Nature Communications, suggests even the dog breeds and village dogs found in the Americas and Pacific Islands are almost completely derived from recent European dog stock.
This is probably due to prolific dog breeding in Victorian times..."

First statewide bicycle tax in nation leaves bike-crazy Oregon riders deflated - Washington Times
First statewide bicycle tax in nation leaves bike-crazy Oregon riders deflated - Washington Times:
"In Oregon, a state known for its avid bicycling culture, the state Legislature’s approval of the first statewide bike tax in the nation has fallen flat with riders.
Democratic Gov. Kate Brown is expected to sign the sweeping $5.3 billion transportation package, which includes a $15 excise tax on the sale of bicycles costing more than $200 with a wheel diameter of at least 26 inches.
...Oregon Republican Party Chairman Bill Currier blasted what he described as Ms. Brown’s “endless obsession with finding new and innovative ways to take money out of the pockets of Oregon taxpayers.”"

The Myth of Drug Expiration Dates - Slashdot
The Myth of Drug Expiration Dates - Slashdot:
"Hospitals and pharmacies are required to toss expired drugs, no matter how expensive or vital. Meanwhile the FDA has long known that many remain safe and potent for years longer.
The box of prescription drugs had been forgotten in a back closet of a retail pharmacy for so long that some of the pills predated the 1969 moon landing.
Most were 30 to 40 years past their expiration dates -- possibly toxic, probably worthless.
But to Lee Cantrell, who helps run the California Poison Control System, the cache was an opportunity to answer an enduring question about the actual shelf life of drugs:
Could these drugs from the bell-bottom era still be potent?
Gerona and Cantrell, a pharmacist and toxicologist, knew that the term "expiration date" was a misnomer.
The dates on drug labels are simply the point up to which the Food and Drug Administration and pharmaceutical companies guarantee their effectiveness, typically at two or three years.
But the dates don't necessarily mean they're ineffective immediately after they "expire" -- just that there's no incentive for drugmakers to study whether they could still be usable.
Tests on the decades-old drugs including antihistamines, pain relievers and stimulants.
All the drugs tested were in their original sealed containers.
The findings surprised both researchers:
A dozen of the 14 compounds were still as potent as they were when they were manufactured, some at almost 100 percent of their labeled concentrations..."

Hobby Lobby Just Announced Plan To Close ALL Stores – Founder Reveals The Alarming Reason Why…:
"In an open letter, Hobby Lobby Founder and CEO David Green revealed that he may close down all 500 stores in 41 states, because of religious persecution began by the Obama Regime.
The personal and heartfelt letter emotionally chronicles Green’s battle with the government and his commitment to follow God’s teachings, even if it means, that after 40-years of being one of the most recognizable and well received stores in America, he will close down his business."

It was found that each new version of GAST has nearly always exhibited a steeper warming linear trend over its entire history.
And, it was nearly always accomplished by systematically removing the previously existing cyclical temperature pattern.
And, it was nearly always accomplished by systematically removing the previously existing cyclical temperature pattern.
This was true for all three entities providing GAST data measurement, NOAA, NASA and Hadley CRU.

...The conclusive findings of this research are that the three GAST data sets are not a valid representation of reality.
In fact, the magnitude of their historical data adjustments, that removed their cyclical temperature patterns, are totally inconsistent with published and credible U.S. and other temperature data.
Thus, it is impossible to conclude from the three published GAST data sets that recent years have been the warmest ever –despite current claims of record setting warming.
Finally, since GAST data set validity is a necessary condition for EPA’s GHG/CO2 Endangerment Finding, it too is invalidated by these research findings.

Our Corrupt Media Is Now Haunted By All The Precedents They Set While Colluding With Obama | Daily Wire
Our Corrupt Media Is Now Haunted By All The Precedents They Set While Colluding With Obama | Daily Wire:
"And all along, over eight terrible years, our media did a whole lot more than just let Obama get away with it. They wholeheartedly colluded. They allowed Obama to persecute them through the Department of Justice and to lie to our face (remember: I just now read about it in the newspaper, the IRS did nothing wrong, you can keep your insurance). And when that wasn't enough, the media mercilessly attacked as racist anyone who criticized the Precious and ginned up nothingburgers like Todd Akin to distract from those four dead Americans. And when even that wasn't enough, they themselves lied and obfuscated, covered up and dissembled, and most of all they set all kinds of precedents that, in a delicious form of irony, are now driving this utterly failed institution to the edge of insanity."

"Last month we talked about a possible delay in new U.S. military rules allowing “openly transgender” applicants to enlist in the service.

It seems that this is truly just a delay and not a foreshadowing of some possible reversal of course.
In preparation for this shift in policy, the Army is rolling out special training material specifically tailored for female soldiers to “train” them in advance so they can be prepared for the day when a “woman with male genitalia” strolls into the shower with them. (Life Site News)

Democrats Block Vote Making Female Genital Mutilation Criminal Act: "Could Offend Migrants":
"As for here in America, you would think that it would be an open and closed case and everyone here would want to condemn the practice through law, so that it couldn’t happen legally here on American soil. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case shockingly…even for a Democrats, this is a new low.
In Maine, house lawmakers have voted narrowly, but still voted to create an education and outreach program aimed at stopping “female genital mutilation” in their immigrant communities. HOWEVER, they stopped just shy of giving prosecutors additional resources to make the practice outright illegal."

How 1,000s Of Student Loans Worth Billions Are Getting Erased On A Technicality | Zero Hedge
"National Collegiate Funding (NCF) is an umbrella name for 15 trusts that collectively hold 800,000 private student loans, totaling some $12 billion in outstanding obligations.
The only problem is that roughly $5 billion worth of those loans, or over 40%, are currently in default (and you thought auto delinquencies were bad).

The only problem is that roughly $5 billion worth of those loans, or over 40%, are currently in default (and you thought auto delinquencies were bad).
Now, ordinarily when a student defaults on their loan, NCF simply files a lawsuit in local or state court as a means for negotiating a settlement or payment plan with the borrower.
Often times, NCF wins these cases automatically as the borrowers don't even bother to show up for their court date.
In cases like that, NCF can use their court victory to garnish wages and/or federal benefits from entitlement programs like Social Security which can haunt borrowers for decades (we actually wrote about it here: Baby Boomers Increasingly Having Social Security Checks Garnished To Cover Student Loan Payments).

That said, NCF is increasingly finding that, much like the subprime mortgage debacle from 10 years ago, student lending institutions apparently had a really hard time keeping tracking of paperwork over the years and/or processed deeply flawed contracts with incomplete ownership records and mass-produced documentation (who can forget that whole robo-signing catastrophe).

Justine Damond was shot and killed while wearing her pajamas and speaking to another police officer after calling 911 to report a possible assault in an alley behind her home on July 15.
Noor’s partner was allegedly “stunned” when Noor opened fire, KARE11 reported through a source. KSTP TV reports that a “source with direct knowledge of the shooting said Monday that the woman was shot multiple times.”
...There were three complaints against this Muslim cop; why was nothing done?
Were higher ups afraid of being called islamophobic?
Were they afraid that Mayor Betsy Hodges, who held celebrations in praise of the hiring of Noor, would come after them for islamophobia? http://kstp.com/…/mohamed-noor-officer-involved-sh…/4544324/
