Arkansas Woman Accused of Killing Husband

By Arkansas Online. A Jefferson County woman was charged with capital murder Saturday after she admitted shooting her husband after a disagreement over pornography, authorities said.

Patricia Hill, 69, called 911 and reported she had shot her husband, 65-year-old Frank Hill, just before 3 p.m Saturday, Maj. Lafayette Woods Jr. of the Jefferson County sheriff’s office said.

Deputies went to 3801 Donaldson Lane, where they found Patricia Hill in the yard and detained her, according to a news release. Deputies found Frank Hill inside a shed on the property with at least two gunshot wounds, according to the release. . .

Hill told investigators she and her husband had never had any “physical altercations,” but they had a disagreement about video pornography purchased by her husband, according to the release. . .

“Mrs. Hill admitted that she then returned inside the residence, where she armed herself with a .22 caliber pistol,” Woods said in the release. “She went back to the shed a short time later, where she entered and shot her husband twice, striking him once in the leg and once in the head.” (Read more from “Arkansas Woman Accused of Killing Husband” HERE)

9/11 Victim Identified, Nearly 17 Years Later

/0 Comments/in , /by

His name was Scott Michael Johnson, and he was 26 years old when a plane flew into the World Trade Center tower he worked in on Sept. 11, 2001.

His remains have now been identified, nearly 17 years later after the attack. . .

“In 2001, we made a commitment to the families of victims that we would do whatever it takes, for as long as it takes, to identify their loved ones,” Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Barbara Sampson said in a statement. “This identification is the result of the tireless dedication of our staff to this ongoing mission.” . . .

There were 21,905 remains recovered from the World Trade Center, he said. And most of those samples were bone, which is difficult to extract DNA from. The samples had also degraded from exposure to fire, jet fuel, water, mold, bacteria and even sunlight at Ground Zero.

For years, the team had struggled to extract enough DNA from Johnson’s bone fragment. So it tried a new technique called “ultrasonic ball bearings.” It’s a process where the bone is pulverized with a piece of metal. Once the fragment became a fine powder, researchers then treated it with chemicals, extracted DNA and generated a forensic profile.

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .After sleeping on a park bench in Mountain View, California, [David] Casarez decided to wear his best shirt and tie Friday morning and begin begging — for a job.

He put together a stack of resumes and made a sign that read: “HOMELESS. HUNGRY 4 SUCCESS. TAKE A RESUME.” . . .

A passing driver, Jasmine Scofield, stopped and asked Casarez if she could take his photo and post it on Twitter. . .

“Google reached out to me,” Casarez, 26, told the New York Post. “So many other companies. Pandora. A bunch of startups.”

“A product manager from Bitcoin.com was wondering if I could work remotely of if I want to relocate to Tokyo,” he added. “But tonight, I’ll be back on my bench in Rengstorff Park.” (Read more from “Homeless Web Developer Made Sign Asking for Job, Not Handouts, and the Results Were Fantastic” HERE)

Photographer Behind Viral Images of Starving Polar Bear Has an Important Climate Change Question

/0 Comments/in , /by

The narrative behind the viral photo of a polar bear starving, reportedly thanks to climate change, has been called into question by the National Geographic photographer who took it in the first place.

In an article for the August issue of National Geographic titled “Starving-Polar-Bear Photographer Recalls What Went Wrong,” Cristina Mittermeier talks about the intended message of the image versus the message that was received. . .

“Photographer Paul Nicklen and I are on a mission to capture images that communicate the urgency of climate change. Documenting its effects on wildlife hasn’t been easy,” she wrote in the article. “With this image, we thought we had found a way to help people imagine what the future of climate change might look like. We were, perhaps, naive. The picture went viral — and people took it literally.” . .

The image she is referencing shows an emaciated polar bear with hardly any fur covering its bony frame. In a video that was also taken of the bear, it can be seen slowly moving through the terrain, rummaging through an empty can. . .

“The first line of the National Geographic video said, ‘This is what climate change looks like’ — with ‘climate change’ then highlighted in the brand’s distinctive yellow. In retrospect, National Geographic went too far with the caption.” (Read more from “Photographer Behind Viral Images of Starving Polar Bear Has an Important Climate Change Question” HERE)

MSM: Therapists Claim Anxiety Disorders Are Being Caused by Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Blaze. Mainstream media outlets are promoting a story that claims therapists are treating more patients for anxiety because of the words and actions of President Donald Trump. . .

The alleged disorder supposedly affects both Trump supporters and non-supporters, and is related to some of his policies and tweets, according to reports.

In a piece that sounds more like satire, Canada’s CBC News cites several therapists who say their patients are afraid Trump may “blow us all up.”

“There is a fear of the world ending,” Washington, D.C., therapist Elisabeth LaMotte told the news outlet. “It’s very disorienting and constantly unsettling.”

The supposed stress and collective anxiety is referred to as “Trump Anxiety Disorder,” abut there is no official diagnosis. (Read more from “MSM: Therapists Claim Anxiety Disorders Are Being Caused by Trump” HERE)

In a Divided U.S., Therapists Treating Anxiety Are Hearing the Same Name Over and Over: Donald Trump

By CBC. “Is he gonna blow us all up?”

So inquired one of Elisabeth LaMotte’s patients recently, fretting out loud about the volatility of U.S. President Donald Trump’s actions during a therapy session at her Washington practice.

It was a rhetorical question — one that predated Trump’s threats of a showdown with Iran this week. But if the question wasn’t meant in earnest, the politically induced anxiety LaMotte is hearing about from her clients certainly is, says the founder of the D.C. Counselling and Psychotherapy Center.

She refers to it as a “collective anxiety” among patients who feel on edge about how potentially dire the president’s decisions could be.

“There is a fear of the world ending,” she said. “It’s very disorienting and constantly unsettling.” (Read more from “In a Divided U.S., Therapists Treating Anxiety Are Hearing the Same Name Over and Over: Donald Trump” HERE)

Pro-Abortion GOP Gov. Signs ‘Nasty Woman Act’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker, a pro-abortion Republican, signed the “NASTY Woman Act” into law Friday. The legislation repeals a 173-year-old law banning abortion in the state.

The bill’s proponents argue that it is necessary just in case Roe v. Wade is overturned so that the state is not able to enforce that law again.

The NASTY Woman Act – short for Negating Archaic Statutes Targeting Young Women – also repealed other laws that have gone enforced for generations, including bans on adultery and restrictions on contraception.

Critics argue that the bill is unnecessary, since these older laws are largely moot due to a 1981 rulingby the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court that upheld a right to abortion access. . .

The Republican governor has long been an advocate of abortion and contraception, Last November, he signed a law requiring the state’s insurers to cover birth control without a copay that included only a narrow exemption for churches and religious institutions who might object on religious grounds.

Disney Park Dwellers Can Thank Liberal Enviros for This Annoying New Policy

/0 Comments/in , /by

Another major company has hopped on the straw ban bandwagon. The Walt Disney Company announced Thursday that it will stop using single-use plastic straws and stirrers in all of its locations by mid-2019. This includes all parks across the globe, except the Disney Tokyo Resort.

The move will reportedly result in the reduction of more than 175 million straws and 13 million stirrers annually—and that’s not the only way the company hopes to shrink its plastic footprint.

Disney will reduce the number of single-use plastic shopping bags in its parks and on cruise ships, as well. Reusable bags will be available for purchase instead. Polystyrene cups will reportedly be phased out of parks, too.

Guests staying in Disney-owned hotels or Disney Cruise Line staterooms may also notice refillable in-room amenities rather than those mini shampoo and conditioner bottles. The company estimates this will reduce plastic waste by 80 percent.

“Eliminating plastic straws and other plastic items are meaningful steps in our long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship,” Bob Chapek, Chairman, Disney Parks, Experiences, and Consumer Products said in the news release. “These new global efforts help reduce our environmental footprint, and advance our long-term sustainability goals.” (Read more from “Disney Park Dwellers Can Thank Liberal Enviros for This Annoying New Policy” HERE)

Ocasio-Cortez Makes Most Idiotic Statement Ever on Twitter

/0 Comments/in , /by

Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has said a lot of stupid things.

She claimed that Israel was occupying Palestine and, when pressed, admitted she did not know what she was talking about. She can’t differentiate between socialism and Democratic socialism. She said she is working to flip a congressional seat “red” in November. She admitted that she can’t win by having to persuade people her ideology is the best possible option. Heck, she even thought that a recent parody video that mocked her was a serious attempt to deceive voters. . .

. . .

Keep in mind that this statement is coming from an admitted socialist who believes in taxing citizens to pay for costly government programs that end up harming the economy. . .

The Trump administration threw out the Iran deal because it was not tough enough, has worked to denuclearize North Korea, has implemented a travel ban on nations that are breeding grounds for terrorism, wants to build a wall on the Southern Border to stop illegal entry into the U.S., and has largely defeated ISIS. . .

There are numerous examples of actions that the Trump administration has taken that refute this claim, the best of which is the fact that the administration has insisted on following through on campaign promises despite knowing that the media is giving them overwhelmingly negative coverage because of it.

ICE Protest Leader Arrested as Sick Pedophile History Exposed

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Conservative Tribune. Micah Rhodes, the 24 year old leader of the anti-Trump protest group “Portland’s Resistance,” has been arrested… again.

Earlier this year, according to Oregon Live, Rhodes was convicted “on three counts of second-degree sexual abuse for having illicit sexual contact with a 17-year-old girl in Washington County and a 17-year-old boy in Multnomah County.”

Rhodes was 20 and 21 years old when he committed the sexual abuse in 2014 and 2015.

Rather than follow the state sentencing guidelines and send Rhodes to jail for two to two-and-a-half years, Multonomah County Circuit Judge Jerry Hodson and Washington County Circuit Judge Janelle Wipper decided in separate hearings to order five years of probation for Rhodes instead.

According to Jerry Hodson as reported by Oregon Live, he did not want to send Rhodes to prison because Hodson believed Rhodes was genuinely trying to change. (Read more from “ICE Protest Leader Arrested as Sick Pedophile History Exposed” HERE)

Portland Protest Leader Micah Rhodes Is Arrested, Again

By Oregon Live. Portland protest leader Micah Rhodes is back in jail on allegations that he violated terms of his probation by having contact with minors.

Rhodes, 24, was ordered to stay away from anyone under 18 years old after he was convicted this year on three counts of second-degree sexual abuse for having illicit sexual contact with a 17-year-old girl in Washington County and a 17-year-old boy in Multnomah County. The sexual abuse occurred in 2014 and 2015, and Rhodes was 20 and 21 years old at the time.

Washington County Circuit Judge Janelle Wipper and Multnomah County Circuit Judge Jerry Hodson decided in separate hearings not to sentence Rhodes to two to 2 ½ -years in prison, as state sentencing guidelines recommended. Instead, the judges ordered five years of probation for Rhodes with a long list of conditions, including that he was forbidden from being around children without the prior permission of his probation officer.

Report: Three Children Euthanized in Country

/0 Comments/in , /by

According to an article in The Brussels Times, a report from the Federal Commission for Euthanasia Control and Evaluation has revealed that euthanasia in Belgium is up 13%.

More striking than the general uptick in numbers, however–most of that increase represents patients between the ages of 60 and 89 years old, the majority having cancer–is the fact that in the years 2016 and 2017, three children also opted in to legally assisted suicide.

While euthanasia in Belgium was legalized for adults in 2003, it wasn’t extended to minors until more recently, in 2014. The law allows children of any age to procure a death via lethal injection, provided they have parental consent and an agreement is reached with a doctor and psychologist.

CNN reported that shortly after the first child was killed under the expanded age laws (in 2016), Belgian senator and supporter of euthanasia Jean-Jacques De Gucht said, “I think it’s very important that we, as a society, have given the opportunity to those people to decide for themselves in what manner they cope with that situation.” . . .

Catholic News Agency reports that, back when assisted suicide was first expanded to minors in Belgium, John Haas (governing member of the Vatican’s Pontifical Academy for Life) declared the new development to be “dreadful.” (Read more from “Report: Three Children Euthanized in Country” HERE)
