Pig to greet travelers at San Francisco airport

Pig to greet travelers at San Francisco airport

picture.php


This has certainly been the year for flying pigs, but the San Francisco International Airport has the first official one.
Although LiLou, a Juliana breed pig, doesn’t actually fly, she does hang around with humans who do. She is the first swine to join the airport’s a team of therapy animals, and is believed to be the only airport porker in the country.
She’s part of the airport’s Wag Brigade which includes about 300 cats, dogs and rabbits whose presence help make the strains of travel a bit easier. The brigade was formed in December 2013, and all of the animals are trained by the San Francisco SPCA, and certified to be Animal Assisted Therapy animals. The pets are carefully selected for their temperament and airport suitability, and they wear vests that read “Pet Me!” to encourage interaction with airport guests.

The conclusion of pizzagate is the funniest thing I have seen in six months. Satanic pedophile ring run out of a pizza shop led by hillary clinton...yet a lot of people viewed it as credible, one dude apparently believing it enough to show up and shoot the place up to try and free the kids.

.yet a lot of people viewed it as credible, one dude apparently believing it enough to show up and shoot the place up to try and free the kids.

and based on a survey conducted several hours after the shooting, 93% of those who said they voted for Trump were considering doing the same thing, but that shooter beat them to it. At 3.30 am the next morning Trump Twittered that "The wall will now be an electrified grate...Let's make America grate again!"

Anyone Lose a Boat?

Anyone Lose a Boat?

Abandoned boat beached at California park contained 2,400 pounds of marijuana

SAN CLEMENTE, Calif., Dec. 9 (UPI) -- Border Patrol agents investigating a report of an abandoned boat in California made a surprising discovery -- about 2,400 pounds of marijuana.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Border Patrol agents responded about 3 p.m. Monday to Calafia State Park, where park rangers reported a 25-foot Bayliner boat "was in the process of washing ashore" and there didn't appear to be anyone on the vessel.

"With assistance from the rangers, agents pulled the vessel ashore for further inspection," Customs officials said in a news release. "Agents did not encounter any people on the boat or the surrounding area."

The agents instead discovered about 2,400 pounds of marijuana that has been bundled into 82 individual cellophane-wrapped packages.

The agency said the marijuana had an estimated street value of about $1.2 million. The marijuana and the abandoned boat were seized for further investigation.

This*crafty Canadian crow was apparently intent on tampering with a crime scene in Vancouver.
Canuck, a locally famous bird with its own Facebook fan page, swooped toward a crime scene on Tuesday before picking up a knife and flying off.
Police had responded to a car fire in a McDonald's parking lot when they were confronted by a man with a knife, CBC reported. Shots were fired and the man was arrested. He was later taken to hospital with non-life-theatening injuries.
That's when Canuck, who lives in the area, apparently decided it was time to check out the scene.
"When there's a commotion going on, if Canuck is in the area he will come to investigate," Shawn Bergman, who raised Canuck, told InsideEdition.com. "The knife was just something that was involved in the commotion and was of interest to humans, therefore it's of interest to him."
Mike Howell, a local newspaper reporter, said he saw a crow arrive at the scene and pick up an object before flying off. The crow was chased 15 to 20 feet before it dropped the object, he said.

"In my 20-plus years reporting from crime scenes, I've never seen anything like that crow trying to take a knife,"*Howell, who works for the Vancouver Courier,*told CBC.

and yet a 3 times married, 4 times bankrupt, egotistical, sexist creep, compulsive liar who avoided military service and taxes and who has been involved in 3000 ~ 4000 law suits in the past 35 years and has never served as a public official was some how a credible choice for Prez...American voters, you amaze me (and add a face palm to that too)

A four-metre python has swallowed a wallaby after slithering on to a Queensland golf course as shocked players watched on.
Golfers stood in disbelief as the 30-minute struggle between reptile and marsupial was spotted at Paradise Palms golf course on Saturday morning.
Robert Willemse, who's been a member at the course for almost 10 years, told the Cairns Post the snake got hold of the wallaby's head and rolled into the middle of the fairway on the 17th hole.
"The python swallowed it and rolled into the creek, then snuck back into the bush. It must have gone for a rest for the next few days," he said.
The python is one of the biggest snakes to have been spotted on the course in a while, general manger of the Paradise Palms Declan McCollam told AAP.
He said the incident had not alarmed locals.
"The snake is not harmful to humans ... when it was finished digesting the wallaby, it went back into the bush," Mr McCollam said.
"The wildlife on Paradise Palms has always been an attraction for golfers, and it is clear that is well and thriving," he said.

This is a long one

This is a long one

The number of Baby Boomers - who grew up in the Sixties - getting spaced out on cannabis has almost doubled in the last eight years. A study of more than 47,000 over 50s in the US found a 71 per cent rise in marijuana use between 2006 and 2013.Dr Joseph Palamar of New York University said: "We found only five per cent of these older adults felt using marijuana once or twice a week was a great risk to their health. I thought the perception of low risk was fascinating because, typically, we think of older generations as drug adverse, and perceiving most drugs to be risky. "But apparently very few Baby Boomers consider marijuana use risky. But after all, this was the generation who was there, in the late 1960s, when the counterculture revolution exploded marijuana into mainstream popularity." The finding - published in Addiction - mirrors previous research in the UK showing recreational drugs are being increasingly taken by older Britons.Rresearchers said the Baby Boomer generation reported higher rates of substance use than any preceding generation.Co-author of the study, Dr Benjamin Han, said: "With the increased availability of legalised marijuana, there is an urgent need to understand the prevalence of its use and also its effects among older generations.”Over 65s had a significantly lower prevalence of marijuana use compared to those between 50 and 64, but this increased two and a half times over the eight years. Overall, use was higher among men than women. Most marijuana users said they first started before the age of 18. This means that most of the current users either continued use or have begun using again more recently. But the researchers believe the population may be at a particularly high risk for adverse health outcomes, as multiple substances like marijuana, prescription drugs and even illicit drugs all used in combination may make older adults vulnerable to poor physical and mental health.Dr Palamar said: "For years we have been worried about the potential effects of marijuana on the developing brains of teens, but now we may need a bit more focus on their grandparents, who are increasingly more likely to be current users."Added Dr Han: "Older people may use marijuana for a variety of reasons, including medical reasons. However we need to make sure they are not using in a hazardous manner since older adults may be vulnerable to its possible adverse effects.Earlier this year an analysis of a series of UK national surveys found among those aged 50 to 64, lifetime use of cannabis increased more than tenfold, from one per cent in 1993 to 11.4 per cent in 2007. Recent use had multiplied by a similar amount, from 0.2 per cent in 1993 to two per cent in 2007.And there's growing evidence to suggest this extends to prescription drugs as well as illegal narcotics, with escalating misuse of pharmaceutical drugs such as painkillers or sleeping pills. by TaboolaSponsored LinksPromoted StoriesIrish People Born Between 1941 and 1981 Are Eligible for High Paid SurveysSurvey CompareUndo8 Spanish Words You'll Struggle To Pronounce (If You're Not Spanish)BabbelUndoIreland has the best waves and Andrew Cotton has found the biggestRedbull.comUndoCelebs Whose Private Jets Are Too Bizarre To BelieveZestVIPUndo13 Easy Tips For Beating Fatigue FastLifestyle PandaUndoThe 15 Most Expensive Homes In The WorldRich & RicherUndo19 Terrifying Things Found UnderwaterThe Zoo ZoomUndoTop 10 Apps and Games of the 2016 Google Play AwardsAppurseUndo15 Foods You Shouldn't Keep In The RefrigeratorHealtyLeo.comUndo Sponsored LinksMore Stories3 (very) average guys learned French in 1 week - how did they do it?BabbelUndoNow You Can Track Your Car Using Your SmartphoneSmart Device TrendsUndo8 Tricks Car Insurance Agents Don't Want You to KnowListberryUndoEndless Hairstyle Inspiration from Hollywood's FavoritesStyleBistroUndoby Taboola Trending Lismore move could prompt ‘economic meltdown’ Tyrone crash claims lives of two young GAA players Man banned from Tesco came back and stole bread and beer Bulldog pups stolen in Craigavon recovered after Newtownabbey...

And You Thought Your Day Was Bad: Suspects Pocket Dial 911, Discuss Plans To Rob Rest

And You Thought Your Day Was Bad: Suspects Pocket Dial 911, Discuss Plans To Rob Rest

And You Thought Your Day Was Bad: Suspects Pocket Dial 911, Discuss Plans To Rob Restaurant...Where Police Chief Was Eating

DANVILLE, Ky. (Advocate Messenger) -- A routine trip to a local diner allowed Danville's Police Chief to serve a side of a justice to some would-be robbers.

According to the Danville Advocate Messenger, police say two suspects were sitting inside their car outside of Brothers BBQ discussing their plans to rob the restaurant. Unfortunately for them, one of the men had accidentally pocket dialed police dispatch.

Serendipitously, Police Chief Tony Gray was enjoying dinner and talking to owner Mike Southerland when he got a phone call.

“They start to walk out together, then Tony gets a call — I see Tony’s police face come on, so I knew something was up,” Southerland told the Advocate Messenger.

Gray was told that dispatch had picked up an accidental call and could hear people discussing robbing a business. They were triangulating the location from key words, including the mention of Chief Gray's name.

“There was some conversation about when they should do it, they might be recognized if they do it in Danville, and I think they did talk about some different locations …” Gray said, noting that he hasn’t heard the actual tape yet. “Somewhere in the conversation my name was brought up.”

Chief Gray and other responding officers searched the parking lot until they found the men in their car. One of them had a mask on his person.

The men, identified as Robert Bourne and David Grigsby, have only been charged with public intoxication. The 911 tape will be turned over to the prosecutor's office to see if other charges will be filed.

Tired of abductions, Mexican townsfolk kidnap drug boss' mom

Tired of abductions, Mexican townsfolk kidnap drug boss' mom

MEXICO CITY – In one of the stranger chapters of Mexico’s drug war, angry people in a southern town kidnapped the mother of a gang leader to demand the release of their loved ones.

The government of Guerrero state said Tuesday that it was sending about 220 soldiers and police to try to defuse the situation in Totolapan.

The town has been controlled for years by a drug gang boss whose proper name is Raybel Jacobo de Almonte, but who is better known as “El Tequilero.”

De Alamonte has lived up to his nickname, which translates roughly as “The Tequila Drinker.” In his only known public appearance, he was captured on video drinking with the town’s mayor-elect. De Alamonte mumbles inaudibly and has to be held up in a sitting position by one of his henchmen.

In recent months, his gang – also known as the Tequileros – has been fighting turf battles with other gangs in the area. Last week, the Tequileros allegedly kidnapped several inhabitants of Totolapan who they wanted to extort or whom they suspected of supporting a rival.

In response, a few dozen men appeared this week in the streets of Totolapan waving shotguns and hunting rifles. In a video, the men carry banners calling for action against El Tequilero and identify themselves as a “self-defense” force, as vigilantes are known in the region.

“We urgently demand the release of the kidnap victims,” a masked man says in a statement read on the video. “We are a legitimate self-defense force of the people.”

Among the Tequileros’ kidnap victims was a local construction engineer, Isauro de Paz Duque, who was snatched on Sunday by men who had threatened to kill him.

On Monday, a woman who identified herself as De Paz Duque’s wife said on a video that townspeople had El Tequilero’s mother and would exchange the woman for her husband.

“We have your mother here, Mr. Tequilero,” she said. “I propose an exchange: I’ll give you your mother if you give me my husband, but I want him safe and sound.”

The state government said in a statement that a negotiating team had been sent to establish contact with the family of the missing engineer and the vigilantes and to set up a search team.

Cops wrong to act on hunch that suspect would poop drugs, judge rules

Cops wrong to act on hunch that suspect would poop drugs, judge rules

A judge has found that the RCMP unlawfully arrested a man who later excreted from his rectum small quantities of heroin, cocaine and fentanyl while in custody.

Ronjot Dhami, who has been charged with three counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking, was a passenger in a Mercedes that was pulled over by police in Kelowna in June 2014.

An RCMP officer, who had earlier been conducting surveillance on an apartment building where the Mercedes was initially spotted, saw Dhami vigorously rubbing his hands together and reaching into the vehicle’s glove box, according to a ruling by B.C. Supreme Court Justice Peter Rogers.

Then the cop, who is only identified as Const. Diachok in the judge’s ruling, noticed a marijuana joint on the front passenger seat beside Dhami.

Const. Diachok advised Dhami and the driver of the Mercedes that they were under arrest for possession of marijuana and ordered them out of the vehicle.

The cop noticed a pea-sized gob of white cream-like lotion on Dhami’s jaw and found a jar of white lotion in the footwell behind the driver’s seat, with what appeared to be a finger scoop of lotion recently taken out of the jar. In the glove box were CD cases and interior fabric with gobs of white lotion.

Diachok, who had earlier been involved in a bust in similar circumstances that resulted in a man being discovered with heroin and cocaine in his rectum, believed that Dhami had also secreted heroin or cocaine, or both, in his rectum.

He told Dhami that he was taking him back to the RCMP detachment to secure the evidence of the drugs he believed were being hidden in his rectum.

Dhami was placed in a cell in which the police had turned off the cell’s water supply and had emptied the toilet bowl, making it a “dry cell.” The cell was monitored by a video camera.

Later that night Dhami behaved in a manner that led police to believe that he’d removed the drugs and then had a bowel movement before placing the drugs back in his rectum.

The next day, while Dhami remained in police cells while his lawyer appeared on his behalf at a bail hearing, the accused was seen crouching on the floor of his cell, using a plastic utensil, a fork or a spoon, to poke little packages down through the floor drain.

Police intervened and found seven small plastic bags containing 1.24 grams of heroin, 23 bags containing 5.86 grams of crack cocaine, and 23 bags containing 4.59 grams of fentanyl.

Dhami’s lawyer argued that there weren’t sufficient grounds for police to initially believe he had drugs on his body and the judge said he “reluctantly” agreed that the arrest for possession of heroin was unlawful.

“Without some evidence that the people in the Mercedes were trafficking in drugs, the mere presence of lotion in the car and of Mr. Dhami rubbing his hands together and having a dot of lotion on his chin and rather dated information that Mr. Dhami used the nickname Kane are not enough, I think, to ground a reasonable belief that he had secreted heroin in his rectum.”

A hearing to determine whether the drug evidence will be excluded at trial is to be held at a later date.
