We know from other Davos gatherings and gatherings with the same ‘delegates‘ that they don’t dine on seaweed and algae. They have premium and rare proteins.
Aside from the obvious, and disgusting, rhetoric, the history is way off. It ignores the research the US conducted prior to the STG-44's development and that Stoner's design is vastly different. STG-44 was the first successful assault rifle, but it wasn't the first. https://t.co/YoBTWyncmS
Councilman Paul Koretz says he wishes people understood the connection between eating a hamburger and destructive wildfires. He’s proposing requiring vegan restaurants at LAX, movie theaters and other city-owned venues. @KFIAM640pic.twitter.com/ZV4QW4Cswy
Councilman Paul Koretz introduced a motion referencing a number of studies that point to the negative impacts the meat and dairy industry has on the environment, including a University of Oxford study that found if more people in the United States adopted plant-based eating it could cut greenhouse- gas emissions from food sources by 70 percent.
“I want to make it easier for us to do better around the city, as well as provide more options for people who are already following a plant-based diet,” Koretz said during a news conference at City Hall.
I’ll debate the stupidity of the ‘global warming’ nonsense and veganism another time.
Climate change isn’t why wildfires are worse, it’s human dumbassery on managing the forests. Those of us from wildfire country have known this for decades. The climate fear-mongers know this too. They just piggy-back on that fact to say ‘well, climate change made it worse too!’ No, no it didn’t.
This forester points out poor management has led to these big fires.
“A human-driven decline in global burned area” was the title of a study published in Science last June and authored by climate scientists at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, Columbia University, the Imperial College London, and elsewhere.
Now, just so we are clear, humans are responsible for much of the wildfire damage. We don’t clear the ‘kindling’ anymore, we move to wildfire-prone areas and aren’t as careful as we should be, and we also start them intentionally sometimes.
Federal authorities said on Tuesday they will investigate a white deputy’s arrest of a black high school student in South Carolina, after video showed him slamming the teenager to the ground and dragging her across a classroom.
The Black Lives Matter group is freaking out over a new video that emerged showing an altercation between an officer and a student. BLMers are saying that the officer is “brutally assaulting a peaceful student.”
a disruptive student refused to leave after a teacher asked her to. An administrator was called to the room, and also asked the student to leave, Lott said, and she refused again. Finally, the school resource officer came to the room. Lott said the officer forcibly removed the student and she resisted arrest.
The White Moose Café seems like a completely normal eatery in Dublin serving a mixture of vegetables and meats (like bacon, which the WHO just tragically announced causes cancer). The White Moose is owned by a man named Paul Stenson. Apparently, back in August, the staff had a run-in with a vegan customer who was perturbed to find few dishes on the menu that worked for her chosen diet. Stenson posted the short rant below about calling ahead to restaurants if you wish to be accommodated:
Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) and Republicans across the country have been obsessing over former Secretary of State and current Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server during her time, determined to use it to find some evidence of negligence or wrongdoing that could be used to frame her and derail her presidential ambitions. Ignoring the fact that no classified information was found within the emails and that there were no regulations against the use of the private server at the time, Republicans have turned the very existence of the email server into a talking point, using it a launching point for all sorts of outlandish allegations which have no basis in fact.
It looks like everyone who works in liberal media got the exact same talking points about the Hillary Clinton campaign because they’re all repeating the line over and over.
Revenue is growing at twice the rate it was before Chief Executive Dan Price made his announcement this spring, according to a report on Inc.com. Profits have doubled. Customer retention is up, despite some who left because they disagreed with the decision or feared service would suffer. (Price said he’d make up the extra cost by cutting his own $1.1 million pay.)
Dan Price, 31, tells the New York Times that things have gotten so bad he’s been forced to rent out his house.
“I’m working as hard as I ever worked to make it work,” he told the Times in a video that shows him sitting on a plastic bucket in the garage of his house. “I’m renting out my house right now to try and make ends meet myself.”
The budget deal reached last night attempts to stave off depletion of the Disability Insurance (DI) trust fund at the end of 2016 by “reallocating” about $150 billion over the next three years from the Social Security Trust Fund to the Disability Insurance Trust Fund.
Officials in a public school district about 50 miles north of San Francisco have found a new and exciting way to coddle kids. Under a new policy, students will be able to earn passing grades with scores of just 20 percent — and a solid C for doing absolutely nothing at all.
These tablets, like the other 40,000 or so ancient artifacts owned by the Green family, were destined for the Museum of the Bible, the giant new museum funded by the Greens, slated to open in Washington, D.C., in 2017. Both the seizure of the cuneiform tablets and the subsequent federal investigation were confirmed to us by Cary Summers, the president of the Museum of the Bible.
