Hey, missy Warren, how about drafting the lasses to 'man' the farms. I'm sure your legion of desk bound rangers will be enthralled with the opportunity (about as much as those streaming to fill the infantry that Obama opened up to the ladies).

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] At least 36 people, including seven children, have been killed by landslides triggered by unusually heavy rains in northwestern Kenya, a local official said on Saturday.
The downpour began on Friday in West Pokot County, which borders Uganda, and worsened overnight, causing flooding and mudslides that swept away four bridges and left the worst-affected village, Muino, unaccessible by road.
"We can confirm that the number of those dead has sadly reached 36. Some people who we thought were lost have been found dead," Samuel Poghisio, a senator from the county, told Rooters by phone.
"More people are marooned and the entire village is at risk of being wiped out by the floods," the county’s governor, John Lonyangapuo, told Rooters by phone as he waited for a helicopter to transport him to survey the damage.
He added that rescue efforts were underway in the area, where more than 500 vehicles are stuck on roads damaged by the landslides.
Eleven of the people killed were in the same house, Lonyangapuo said.
Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta said in a statement that he had deployed rescue personnel from various agencies including the army and the police to try to stop the "further loss of lives."

[amgreatness] An Ohio animal rights activist with a history of attacks on people wearing fur has been charged with attempted murder for stabbing a woman wearing fur boots at a church outside Cleveland, police said.
According to the police report, the victim had taken children she babysits to the church for choir practice at Fairmount Presbyterian Church, in Cleveland Heights. Meredith Lowell, came up and stabbed her, the victim suffered two stab wounds to her arm and stomach, Fox News reports.
“Witnesses told police they heard a woman screaming and the babysitter fell to the ground due to the stab wounds.” A man wrestled Lowell to the floor and held her until officers arrived, the police report said. “When police arrived at the church, they found the young woman lying on the ground surrounded by blood, clutching her left side.”
The victim remained hospitalized Thursday, Police Chief Anne Mecklenburg said. Her condition was unclear. It’s also not clear whether the victim was wearing real fur. It doesn't really matter if the victim was wearing real fur, which is legal; what matters is that the perp stabbed her, which is not.
Meradith Lowell, 35 was charged with felonious assault and attempted murder. She appeared in court via video on Thursday and her bond was set at $1 million. Her next court appearance is scheduled for Monday.

alternative headline: Animal Rights Activist Stabs Large Female Primate
HAYNEVILLE, Ala. (AP) ‐ An Alabama sheriff was fatally shot Saturday evening in a community near the state’s capital, authorities announced, later saying they were seeking a man considered to be a "serious risk" who may be traveling on foot.
Gov. Kay Ivey tweeted that Lowndes County Sheriff John Williams had been "tragically killed" in the line of duty and that she offered her prayers and sympathy to his family and the Lowndes County Sheriff’s Department.
Montgomery County Sheriff Derrick Cunningham told news outlets that Williams was shot at a gas station in the community of Hayneville, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) southwest of Montgomery. Details remained sketchy as law enforcement agents converged on the community. Video from WSFA-TV showed a heavy law enforcement presence late Saturday outside a QV gas station.
Alabama Law Enforcement Agency spokesman Cpl. Jess Thornton told reporters the State Bureau of Investigation was en route to the scene.
Meanwhile, the state issued what it called an "emergency BLUE alert" that it was seeking an 18-year-old white man last seen at a QV gas station in the area at 8:15 p.m., the time of the reported shooting. The statement made no mention of the shooting or a possible connection to the man.

They don't seem to be very big on range safety, I don't think they have "range safety devices" on their Rockets. I helped do a model rocket launch at KSC visitor center and we had to get get permission to launch without them. you know something to blow up the rocket if something goes wrong.

[DAWN] A seven-year-old girl was strangled to death after being raped in her house in Dhoke Chaudhrian early on Friday.
Even after her death, the victim was again subjected to sexual assault by her 18-year-old uncle, said Superintendent of Police (SP) Syed Ali. He said the suspect had confessed to having killed the girl after sexually assaulting her.
He said the girl’s father, an Afghan national, lived in Dhoke Chaudhrian’s sector ’C’ with his wife and six children. His younger brother (suspect) also lived with the family.
The SP said the suspect got married two months ago but his wife left him two weeks ago and returned to her parents’ house.
Late on Thursday night, the girl’s father, who works as a scavenger, went to work along with his elder son, leaving his wife and five children and the suspect at home.
After midnight, the suspect took the girl from her mother’s room to another room and subjected her to sexual assault.
After strangling her to death, he put the body on a bed outside her mother’s room and covered her with a blanket. The suspect then left his house but police later traced him in the same locality and took him into custody.
The incident came to light when the victim’s father and brother returned home at about 2.30am and found her lying outside her mother’s room.
"First, her father thought that she might have been taunted by her mother, therefore, she was sleeping outside the room. But when he removed the blanket, he found her dead," police said.
The body was taken to a private hospital where a doctor declared it a police case because the victim had been subjected to sexual assault.
A police team led by SP Ali reached the scene and collected evidence, including a blood stained bedsheet. The police also called forensic experts who collected evidence from the scene.
The SP said the body was handed over to her parents after an autopsy. An investigation has been launched and as soon as the postmortem report is received the circumstances in which the girl was murdered could be known, he added.
The parents of the victim were reluctant in registration of a case but when they were assured by the police that all possible help would be extended to them, they agreed to file an FIR.
City Police Officer (CPO) Mohammad Faisal Rana in a video message said an incident of murder of a girl after rape had taken place in the airport police area and the suspect had been arrested.
He didn’t reveal the relation of the suspect with the victim but said: "The suspect is a close relative of the victim. His DNA and other forensic tests will be conducted and he would be awarded an exemplary punishment."

[BREITBART] Pope Francis has condemned the "evil" bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima, calling the attacks a "tragic episode in human history." And he's Infallible, so he should know.
"I will soon visit Nagasaki and Hiroshima, where I will offer prayers for the victims of the catastrophic bombing of these two cities, and echo your own prophetic calls for nuclear disarmament," the pope told an assembly of the nation’s bishops in Tokyo Saturday evening, shortly after his arrival in the country.
"I wish to meet those who still bear the wounds of this tragic episode in human history, as well as the victims of the triple disaster," he said. "Their continued sufferings are an eloquent reminder of our human and Christian duty to assist those who are troubled in body and spirit, and to offer to all the Gospel message of hope, healing and reconciliation."
"Evil has no preferences; it does not care about people’s background or identity," he continued. "It simply bursts in with its destructive force, as was the case recently with the devastating typhoon that caused so many casualties and material damage."
This past week, Francis sent a video message to the people of Japan, denouncing the use of nuclear weapons as "immoral" just prior to his departure for a six-day visit to Asia, including Thailand and Japan.
"Your country is very aware of the suffering caused by war," said the pope in reference to the U.S. bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima in August 1945. "Together with you, I pray that the destructive power of nuclear weapons will never be unleashed again in human history."
"Using nuclear weapons is immoral," he said, speaking in his native Spanish. The Rape of Nanking was immoral, too. So was the Spanish Inquisition. So was the the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre. Shuddup.

Killed more in the fire bombing of Tokyo that March. That was one month after the Rape of Manila where the Japanese killed even more civilians.
"So, moved by humane considerations, the Lateran Council, which advised the Pope on secular affairs, in 1139 declared the crossbow 'a weapon hateful to God.' The ban was observed unilaterally by Conrad III of Germany, who forbade its use in his armies for thirteen years, meanwhile trying to persuade other powers to do likewise. He failed, and by 1152 Conrad's soldiers were again using the crossbow."

This priest is a duplicitous and foolish little man who opines on subjects of which he is embarrassingly ignorant.
None of which can hide the fact that he presides over an organization that for the better part of the last 60 years has engaged in an international conspiracy to shield known rapists and serial pedophiles from law enforcement across the civilized world.
His throne does not give him moral authority when it is used to protect what is for all intents and purposes a mafia-style crime syndicate.

[Chicago Tribune] Consumers are being advised to avoid romaine lettuce grown in Salinas, Calif., after 40 people fell ill from E. coli infections.
The Friday warning from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, issued a week before families sit down to dinner for Thanksgiving, comes exactly a year after another E. coli outbreak prompted the agency to issue an unusually broad alert to dump all romaine.
In its latest warning, the CDC urged consumers, retailers and restaurants to throw away any packages of romaine, including salad mixes, that have "Salinas" anywhere on the label. If the lettuce isn’t labeled with a growing region, it should also be thrown away.
The agency issued the announcement after investigating reports of 40 people in 16 states falling ill from E. coli contamination, including one person in Illinois, between Sept. 24 and Nov. 10. Twenty-eight of the people were hospitalized, and five developed hemolytic uremic syndrome, a type of kidney failure. No one has died.
In interviews, the CDC found 80% of the ill people had eaten romaine, and preliminary evidence suggests some ate lettuce grown in Salinas, one of the country’s major growing regions. No common grower, supplier, distributor, or brand of romaine lettuce has been identified. The Food and Drug Administration and affected states are continuing efforts to trace back the contaminated lettuce.

Happens all the time in Salinas/Watsonville thanks to poorly-vetted illegal laborers. Blame the employers as much as the "sanctuary city" loons.
We should bring back the bracero program and make sure these people are vetted properly and that their employers obey all the food-handling and OSHA laws.

[Townhall] On Saturday, Climate protestors interrupted the Yale-Harvard football game at halftime by taking the field and refusing to leave. The protest was organized by two groups, Divest Harvard and Fossil Free Yale. The crowd of protestors consisted of students, alumni, and, of course, faculty members.
The protestors unfurled banners that read "Nobody Wins Yale and Harvard Are Complicit In Climate Justice," "This Is An Emergency," and another one addressed to the universities' presidents, "Our Future Demands Action Now."

...The question that I found most interesting, however, is the one which asked if a comment on a woman’s attractiveness can be classified as sexual harassment. Although many respondents gave a negative answer, those answering in the U.S. were a different matter. Roughly a third of younger individuals thought such treatment can be classified as sexual harassment.
I find that a little bit alarming. Have we intensified the fight against sexual harassment to such an extent that men can no longer feel free to offer a polite, kind compliment to women on a new dress, a certain hairstyle, or a mannerism or ability which is admirable? Have we encouraged women to be on guard against men to such an extent that we set even our little girls on edge against a hug from relatives at holiday gatherings? And if so, does it not seem that our efforts to create a less toxic environment for women may actually be escalating that toxicity for both sexes? Wanting to eat your cake and also keep it usually doesn't work, dear ladies.

Involuntary celibates and cuckoo cuckolds who have to watch the boys take home the prom queen usually create such impracticable social conventions.
Soon, they'll have a group demanding that a girl is a bigot and a lookist for denying every one who asks, sexual intercourse. From there, it's Sodom and Gomorrah.

Looks like I'm way out in front - I haven't complimented a woman about her looks in about thirty years. It started out as an attitude of 'I'm not giving the pricks the satisfaction' and now it's morphed into this. In a few cases it's obvious that a lady wanted a compliment, but I'm like 'pfffft - fuck that noise'.
As far as I'm concerned, let the broads sort this shit out, 'cause if I did, it'd be mansplaining or some such bullshit.
"What a well rounded ass, my dear !" - Yeah that can classify as mildly inappropriate, or something in the same vein. I'm sure feminists are ok with those comments, or they won't complain about actual predators because of fear. No. They'll selectively decide which individual's comments they don't like.

I'm married. I don't worry about other women's looks beyond situational awareness. (1. Is she armed? 2. Is she a threat? 3. If not, ignore her other than an object to be moved around.)

Perhaps we need to rethink what a compliment is. How about:
"You look just like a guy!" or
"Didn't you start at middle linebacker for the Chicago Bears?"

The lesson that the ANTIFA average moron can learn if he is able and willing is Don’t F*ck with us. Then if the moron starts to learn some basics of survival he may just may learn to live with others.
