Ten enlisted Navy SEALs and a sailor who supported Navy special warfare are in the process of being administratively discharged from the service for testing positive for cocaine or methamphetamines, USNI News has learned. The sailors, assigned to East Coast Naval Special Warfare units, failed a series of regular drug screenings over March and April, a spokesperson told USNI News on Thursday. “During a number of command drug tests from March to April 2018, 11 service members from East Coast-based Naval Special Warfare units tested positive for controlled substances,” Cmdr. Tamara Lawrence said in a statement. “We have a zero-tolerance policy for the use of illicit drugs and ...

Facebook’s founder Mark Zuckerberg has admitted that his social media platform will ramp up “news suppression” ahead of the 2018 midterm elections. Although the term “news suppression” is being used, let’s call it what it is: censorship. Zuckerberg will “dial up the intensity” of censorship in hopes that he can weaponize his social media platform to help elect leftists. Zuckerberg stated this week that the social media firm has plans to further crack down on “fake news” (news liberals don’t like) on the platform via “suppression” of certain news publications. BuzzFeed News reported that Zuckerberg ...
Simpsons Creator Refuses to Apologize for ‘Apu,’ and Exposes Danger of ‘Pretending to be Offended’

Simpsons creator Matt Groening knew he would stir up controversy when he decided to give life to show character “Apu Nahasapeemapetilon.” But maybe he had no idea how much, or didn’t care. Whatever his motivation for introducing the world to Apu, his character has predictably drawn the consternation of the politically correct police department. But according to Groening, the outrage is fake news and those who take offense to the stereotypical Indian character are simply pretending to be offended. In a revealing interview with USA Today, Groening was asked if he had any comments about Apu being a stereotype of the Indian Community. “Not really,” Groening ...

BOSTON (AP) -- Former Massachusetts Senate President Stan Rosenberg announced Thursday he would end his long political career after a scathing ethics report concluded he failed to protect the Senate from his husband, who has been charged with sexual misconduct. In a one-sentence letter delivered to the Senate, Rosenberg said his resignation would be effective at 5 p.m. Friday. The decision came amid mounting calls, including several from his Democratic colleagues, for the Amherst Democrat to resign. He stepped down from the presidency in December when allegations first surfaced against his husband, Bryon Hefner. The couple has since separated. In a statement, Rosenberg said he was leaving ...

Marion, IN — A mother and father are horrified and asking for police to be held accountable after a graphic video showed multiple cops savagely attack and beat their schizophrenic son. On Monday, Arrington Barber, 29, was in the midst of a schizophrenic episode and was walking outside of his apartment wearing only a blanket. Barber, who has a history of mental illness—but no history of violence—was in need of help. However, when police arrived, he got the exact opposite. According to police, when they saw Barber and attempted to approach him, he dropped the blanket and ran inside his apartment. To a schizophrenic man, multiple armed men with guns chasing after you can be ...

Gary Jackson never stood a chance.Gary was 28 and working as a security guard at a taco truck in Oakland, Calif., in 2009 when he saw Dreshawn Lee carrying a sawed-off shotgun and reported it to police.

Smoking weed before massive heart attack saved Kevin Smith's life, director says

For better or worse, Kevin Smith is known today as one of Hollywood’s most prominent potheads. But while the director’s habit may have had a less-than-desirable result on his recent films, at least one doctor told him smoking weed may have saved his life during a massive heart attack earlier this year. The New Jersey native stopped by the Late Show on Tuesday night, where he discussed the February health scare that resulted from a 100 percent blockage of his left anterior descending artery. The condition is known as “the widowmaker” due to its high mortality rate, which Smith, 47, said kills 80 percent of people afflicted by it. Marijuana, however, helped ...
Cop Uses Compassion Instead of Violence to Respond to Lost Dog and Something Amazing Happened

It is no secret that hundreds of innocent dogs are shot and killed by police officers in the United States every year, and while the horrific footage captured by body cameras creates public outrage for a moment, the majority of the officers who are responsible for murdering family pets never face charges for their actions. Each officer who encounters a dog has a choice, and when the Texarkana Police Department received a report about a “vicious dog,” and Officer Travis Frost spotted a dog who matched the description, he could have approached the animal with his handgun drawn, waiting for the dog to make the slightest movement towards him to justify opening fire. But instead, Frost ...

EXCLUSIVE: Cabal Of Wealthy Donors Financing $50 Million Trump-Russia Investigation

A group of wealthy donors from New York and California have forked out $50 million to fund a Russia investigation being conducted by Christopher Steele, Fusion GPS and a former Senate staffer for Dianne Feinstein. That bombshell revelation is made in a footnote to the House Intelligence Committee’s newly released report on Russian interference in the presidential campaign. Fusion GPS hired Steele, a former MI6 agent, to investigate Trump’s activities in Russia. He would go on to produce a 35-page report alleging collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian government. The Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee funded the project. A law firm representing the ...

In his very first TV interview as Trump’s attorney, with Trump shadow adviser Sean Hannity no less, Giuliani contradicted the president’s stories on potential obstruction of justice, the Stormy Daniels affair, and even his relationship with fixer Michael Cohen. In response to Hannity’s first softball – what’s the status of the Russia investigation – Giuliani basically confirmed that he leaked Mueller’s questions for Trump (which were actually composed by the president’s attorneys) as part of an effort to paint the special counsel as unfairly biased. Then he offered up a brand new explanation for why Trump fired FBI director James Comey: He fired ...

After he was diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in 2011, McCourry tried "weekly talk therapy and more drugs than I could keep account of," none of which helped much. The one thing that worked for McCourry, leading to "huge breakthroughs" that immediately resolved his sleep issues, was psychotherapy facilitated by MDMA, which was banned by the Drug Enforcement ...

Because nothings says "rule of law" like a sheriff held in contempt for refusing to follow a judge's orders.Vice President Mike Pence had kind words Tuesday night for former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the self-styled "toughest sheriff in America," who was pardoned by President Donald Trump last year after a federal judge held him in criminal contempt. At a rally in Arizona, Pence introduced Arpaio, now running for U.S. Senate, as "another favorite, a great friend of this president, a tireless champion of strong borders and the rule of law." It was interesting choice of words, considering Arpaio was charged by federal prosecutors and convicted of ...

Redskins cheerleaders: The team practically "pimped us out" to rich dudes and corporate sponsors in Costa Rica in 2013

Silver lining, I guess: The name “Redskins” is no longer the team’s biggest political problem. There was no actual sex in this “pimping out,” the Times’s sources say, just some of the traditional pre-coitus arrangements for an escort service. A group of attractive women all in the firm’s employ are told that a group of wealthy men wants to mingle with them privately, and saying no doesn’t seem to be much of an option. Allegedly, when you sign up to cheer for the ‘Skins you’re also unwittingly signing up to be “companions” for rich fans in foreign countries after they’ve watched you model topless. Oh, and after team management ...

Kanye West revealed in a TMZ interview on Tuesday that he wanted to apologize to George W. Bush for saying in 2005 that the president did not care about black people in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Kanye West said he was always told not to apologize to Bush, but that he recently saw the former president pushing his father’s wheelchair at Barbara Bush’s funeral in March, and he felt sympathy for him. “Do you know how bad I would want to go to George Bush and say I’m sorry for hurting you. I was an artist I was hurting when I went up to the telethon,” Kanye explained. “I said something in the moment, but when I look at you as a Dad, and a family member, ...
How Weather and Climate Work
Post Date: 2018-05-02 12:46:04 by Tooconservative

There are three big drivers of weather for any place on Earth: the latitude, the local environment, and solar system cycles. The biggest weather factor is latitude – are you in the torrid, temperate, or frigid zone? These climatic zones are defined by the intensity of heat delivered to Earth's surface by the sun. In the Torrid Zone, the sun is always high in the sky. It is generally hot, often moist, with low atmospheric pressure, muggy conditions, and abundant rain and storms, some severe. Places close to the Equator get two summers per year (just one long summer) and very little winter. Farther from the equator, there are two seasons: "The Wet" and "The ...

Tuesday brought us two Kanyes. The first was a man who opened up about his mental health, his family, and his art in a nearly-two hour interview with radio host Charlamagne Tha God. The second was a Kanye who appeared at the TMZ headquarters where he had this to say: "When you hear about slavery for 400 years ... For 400 years? That sounds like a choice." The rapper went on to add:"You were there for 400 years and it's all of y'all. It's like we're mentally imprisoned." Provocative statements are second nature to the 40-year-old rapper. And this week he's been making headlines left and right, including proclaiming his love for President Trump. ...

Let’s Be Honest: Paul Ryan Would Fire Jesus as House Chaplain

As a scholar of the life and teachings of Jesus, I am frustrated when I hear some “Christian” politicians hijack and, in fact, mutilate his teachings. A recent example involves House Speaker Paul Ryan’s firing of the House chaplain, Father Patrick Conroy, which apparently occurred, in part, because Conroy had the audacity to pray for the fair treatment of the poor during the tax debate last fall. Although the speaker’s office denied that the chaplain—the second Catholic to serve in that position and the first chaplain to be fired midterm—was forced to resign because of a specific prayer, Conroy reports that he received complaints from the speaker’s office ...
