- President Barack Obama
announced a plan for a $5
billion anti-terrorism fund. Some of that money will go
(as
rumored yesterday) to members of the Syrian opposition. - Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel wants every single firearm purchase
in the city
to be flimed. Emanuel is also
pushing forward with ride-share rules. Soon, the city will be
so bogged down with regulations it’ll sink into Lake Michigan. - The military is working on a chip that will be
implanted in the brain to treat things like depression and
post-traumatic stress disorder. - A federal judge has ordered Ohio to
halt any executions for two months while it figures out its
lethal injection procedure. The last guy the state killed gasped
for nearly half an hour. - A virus that killed 7 million pigs and spiked pork prices last
year
is back and veterinarians don’t know how to contain it. - A new report from the Centers for Disease Control says that the
majority of American adolescents (even the skinny ones)
fail to meet the “bare minimum threshold of being called
‘fit.'”
