1…………> Deport Food Stamp Holders” ICE

 

Immigrants currently in US who get public benefits like food stamps or housing vouchers could be denied green cards, under a new proposal from President Donald Trump’s administration, satisfying a campaign pledge to make immigration to the United States more difficult, and to reduce the number of people allowed to stay in the country. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said Saturday that under the proposed rule change, being a current or previous recipient of sure public aid would be seen as a “heavily weighed negative factor” in considering an application for lawful permanent residency.

“This proposed rule will implement a law passed by Congress intended to promote immigrant self-sufficiency and protect finite resources by ensuring that they are not likely to become burdens on American taxpayers,” Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said.

2…………> Revenge Down Under: Tiger Sharks

 

Following two attacks on swimmers, Australian officials captured and shot three tiger sharks in the Whitsunday Islands region, a popular tourist destination near the Great Barrier Reef. The biggest of the predators was 3.3 meters (10.8 feet) long, with the other two measuring 2.6 and 2 meters from nose to tail. “While sharks of this size are potentially very dangerous to humans, it is unclear if they were responsible for injuries caused to two swimmers this week,” Fisheries Queensland said in a statement.

3…………> Ban The Burqas: Switzerland

 

Voters in the northeastern Swiss canton of St. Gallen on Sunday overwhelmingly approved a new law that would see facial coverings such as the burqa banned in public, with two-thirds casting a ballot in favor of the legislation under the Swiss system of direct democracy. One other Swiss canton that of Italian-speaking Ticino in the south introduced a similar law two years ago. The law was approved against the will of the regional St. Gallen government, which will now be obliged to implement the result. The outcome is valid despite just 36-percent turnout at the referendum. The Swiss Federal Cabinet initially wanted to leave decisions on whether to introduce legislation against full-face coverings up to the individual cantons. However, it will now likely hold a national referendum on the issue next year after activists from the populist right-wing Swiss People’s party last year collected the more than 100,000 signatures needed to trigger one.

4…………> The Lost Ark: In Search Of

 

The Ark of the Covenant, which is believed to have disappeared around 587 BC when the invading forces of Babylon destroyed Jerusalem, and described as a wooden crate covered with gold containing the two stone tablets of the Ten Commandments that were handed down from God to Moses, is still on minds of treasure finders.

Theories regarding its possible whereabouts range wildly, from being hidden beneath the Temple Mount, to being guarded by a tribe in Africa, or even being captured by the US. Noah’s Ark Rocked By Artificial Insemination Claim Daily Star Online took a look at the likely locations for the Biblical artifact. The most obvious is that the Ark of the Covenant remains hidden deep beneath the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. More than 76 miles away is another possible Ark location, Lake Tiberias, better known as the Sea of Galilee, which some theorists believe is the place where the scared chest was sunk into.

5…………> Dead Fish: Florence Aftermath

 

US fire crews dealing with the clean-up operation after hurricane floodwaters receded made an unexpected discovery: dead fish spread across the highway. The flooding from the deadly hurricane pushed the fish from their natural habitat and scattered them along an interstate highway; the Penderlea Fire Department posted on Facebook on Saturday.

 “Well, we can add ‘washing fish off of the interstate’ to the long list of exciting things firefighters get to experience!. ​Hurricane Florence caused massive flooding in our area and allowed the fish to travel far from their natural habitat, stranding them on the interstate when waters receded,” the fire department reported.

The death toll from the deadly Hurricane Florence has reached 43 people, with 17 districts of North Carolina having hundreds of roads closed so far; drivers are urged not to move through the territories of these districts unless necessary. There are more than 50 thousand houses left without electricity.

1…………> “Back To Missippi Burning”: AK Cop Fired

 

Entertainment executive Demarcus Bunch and his team were driving through the city of England, Arkansas as Bunch was scouting for a location to shoot a music video in their hometown when they felt of being followed by a police officer.

Bunch approached the officer to ask him why.

“You understand I know who my people are, right? Who belongs here, who doesn’t? You don’t belong in my city” officer Moore told the group.

Bunch and his friends recorded the encounter and then filed a complaint with the police department but after getting no response, decided to post the video on Facebook.

The England Police Department terminated Moore from the department effective Aug. 8. He was also fired from the Lonoke Police Department last May. (AA)

2…………> Applied Global Warming: Dead Fish & Dry Rivers

 

Dying fish and drying rivers — consequences of Europe’s summer heat wave
became very evident when dead fish have been pulled out of the Islamic Merkeldom of Germany’s waterways, and lakes by the ton, the extreme heat due to the global warming is the chief culprit among factors altering fish habitat.

Although the Dreisam River is less than 19 miles long, the residents of Freiburg are still proud of their waterway that runs right through the southern German city, carrying snowmelt and providing an attractive opportunity to the residents of Freiburg to cool off in summer.

But these days, the river has turned into a rocky desert wash, when the local fishing club had preemptively caught fish and released them in other bodies of water.

“You have to measure water temperature and oxygen content continuously,” fish expert Peter Rudolph explained.

“When you see the first dead fish, it is too late to save the stock. All you can do then is leave the matter over to nature.”

3…………> Romania Boiling: Riots & Mayhem

 

Tens of thousands of Romanians gathered for the second night of protests in the capital Bucharest after 455 people were injured the day before in a mass protest against the corruption by the ruling regime that has turned their country one of the poorest in the EU.

“I came after seeing what happened on Friday on television — the brutality of the police against peaceful people,” Floarea Toader, 64, told the Agence France-Presse news agency.

“My children work in Spain, and they would like to come back. But for now, that’s not possible as the politicians are only interested in themselves and do nothing for anyone else.”(DW)
