Boxing: Wilder to defend WBC title against Breazeale in May

March 19, 2019

(Reuters) – WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder will put his title on the line against fellow American Dominic Breazeale at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn in May, both camps said on Tuesday.

Wilder (39-0-1), who fought to a split decision draw against Briton Tyson Fury in Los Angeles on Dec. 1, will face the 20-1 Breazeale on May 18.

Last December, Breazeale stopped Carlos Negron of Puerto Rico in the ninth round and is the WBC’s mandatory challenger.

“It’s always a great thing to get the mandatories out of the way because I consider the mandatories like flies — they are always buzzing in your ear,” Wilder, known as the Bronze Bomber, said at a media conference.

Breazeale, whose only loss was to WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO champion Anthony Joshua in 2016, added he was looking forward to try and silence his fellow 33-year-old.

“I’m excited to finally get this chump in the ring,” he said. “You love your own voice. All you do is talk and talk and talk.

“It’s time to get into the ring and square off.”

YouTube Finally Shuts Down Soft-Core Channel Months After Creator Arrested For Pedophilia

YouTube has finally gotten around to shutting down a notorious soft-core ‘pedo-centric’ channel months after its creator was arrested in Central Florida for molesting a 15-year-old girl in a hotel room near Walt Disney World. 

UK-based Ian Rylett, 55, was arrested in August of 2018 on suspicion of molesting the teen, shortly after she signed a contract to appear on his YouTube channels – one of which was “Seven Super Girls.” According to prosecutors, the contract required the girl to “remove any items of clothing as directed by management.

<!–[if IE 9]><![endif]–>

According to an arrest warrant obtained by BuzzFeed News, detectives were called to Rylett’s Orange County hotel room on the morning of Aug. 16, after Rylett allegedly verbally abused the girl, demanding she undress in front of him against her will and “practice wrapping her breasts down, to make them appear smaller for the video shoot.” According to the report, the girl, who is under 16, claims Rylett touched her breasts and fondled her while repeatedly making her undress, eventually attempting to forcefully remove her underwear. The arrest report also alleges that Rylett “threatened to use the contract to fine her if she did not comply with his demand.” –BuzzFeed

According to prosecutors, Rylett wanted the teen’s chest to look smaller so she would appear younger in the videos, according to ClickOrlando.

While initially pleading not guilty in August, Rylett agreed to a plea deal on Wednesday and has been sentenced to 90 days in jail and five years of probation. He faced up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

In response, YouTube has finally shut down his operation. 

<!–[if IE 9]><![endif]–>

The channel, which has nearly three million subscribers, features videos of children and young teens performing skits in costumes, going on vacation, or doing routine activities around their homes.

Over the past decade, at least six spinoff channels were created including “Seven Perfect Angels” and the flagship “Seven Super Girls.”

Known collectively as the SAK Channels, more than 17 million YouTube users subscribe to the videos, helping to generate more than 10 billion total video views.

Rylett’s UK-based company, Starcast Productions LTD, has operated the channels for at least the past five years, court records indicate. –Click Orlando

The channel containing Rylett’s sexually suggestive videos was brought to light by comedian Daniel Tosh in a 2017 segment on Tosh.0.

Tosh staged a To Catch a Predator” style spoof on the type of viewers who were watching the seven girls’ videos. You guessed it….pedophiles. Unfortunately, their videos are extremely popular and serve as an indictment to the world’s pedophilic attractions.

The channel has nearly 3,000 videos uploaded. But this is no ordinary children’s show, and without a doubt, 1980’s era censors would have driven themselves mad in an attempt to shut down the perversion.

At first glance, the Seven Super Girls YouTube homepage, arguably, looks like one’s favorite porn site. Each under-18 girl has her own subchannel. To the unwitting, however, the site may look like girls dressed like girls, engaging in activities which girls enjoy — going to camp, hanging with friends by the pool, and playing dress up.

But to a pedophile, the site is a smorgasbord of smut, carefully crafted to serve as eye candy for adults and teenagers to indulge in their child-sex fantasies. After we clicked on the entire list of videos and selected to sort by most popular, it became clear to us at The Free Thought Project, the videos are in no way innocent. –Free Thought Project

In February, several advertisers including Disney and Nestle SA ceased their relationship with YouTube over a “soft-core pedo ring” operating in the comments sections of several pedo-centric YouTube videos. 

Originally discovered in 2016 by YouTuber “reallygraceful” in a now-unavailable video – for which she was subject to MSM hit pieces (such as this one by the BBC‘s Mike Wendling), blogger Matt Wilson revived the controversy in a 20-minute. 

Some of the videos involved in the pedo ring were placed next to Disney and Nestle advertisements, according to the report.

All Nestle companies in the U.S. have paused advertising on YouTube, a spokeswoman for the company said Wednesday in an email. Video game maker Epic Games Inc. and German packaged food giant Dr. August Oetker KG also said they had postponed YouTube spending after their ads were shown to play before the videos. Disney has also withheld its spending, according to people with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be identified because the decision hasn’t been made public. –Bloomberg

When one clicked on one of the videos, YouTube algorithms then suggested similar ‘pedo-centric’ material. 

In response, YouTube disabled the comments section for a wide swath of videos containing children.

YouTube Found To Have Child Exploitation Videos — It’s Been A Problem For Years — REMOVES THOUSANDS OF CHANNELS AND DISABLES COMMENTS ON MILLIONS

Disney, Nestle Pull YouTube Ads Over ‘Soft-Core Pedo Ring’ Exposed By Blogger

Walt Disney is joining Nestle SA and other companies in pulling ads from YouTube after a blogger uncovered a “soft-core pedophilia ring” facilitated in the comments section, reports Bloomberg

Some of the videos involved in the pedo ring were placed next to Disney and Nestle advertisements, according to the report.

All Nestle companies in the U.S. have paused advertising on YouTube, a spokeswoman for the company said Wednesday in an email. Video game maker Epic Games Inc. and German packaged food giant Dr. August Oetker KG also said they had postponed YouTube spending after their ads were shown to play before the videos. Disney has also withheld its spending, according to people with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be identified because the decision hasn’t been made public. –Bloomberg

In a 20-minute YouTube video published Sunday which has over 1.7 million views as of this writing, blogger Matt Wilson described how comments on YouTube were being used to identify certain videos in which young girls can be seen participating in sexually suggestive behavior – such as posing in front of mirrors and doing gymnastics and “yoga stretching.” 

When one clicked on one of the videos, YouTube algorithms then suggested similar ‘pedo-centric’ material. 

YouTube says it has taken action, telling Bloomberg in an email: “Any content –including comments — that endangers minors is abhorrent and we have clear policies prohibiting this on YouTube. We took immediate action by deleting accounts and channels, reporting illegal activity to authorities and disabling violative comments.” 

YouTube says that total ad spending on the videos was under $8,000 over the last two months, and they will refund advertisers.

The question remains – why hasn’t YouTube done more to police the ‘soft-core pedo porn’ on its platform?

Child exploitation over YouTube is nothing new, and even has its own hashtag: #Elsagate, named after a character in the 2013 Disney animated film Frozen. Most famous for these “soft core pedo porn” videos was the “Seven Super Girls” channel, which is still active

The sexually suggestive videos were brought to light by comedian Daniel Tosh in a 2017 segment on Tosh.0.

As Bloomberg notes, YouTube has had advertisers pull out from the platform over extremist and violent content, as well as “inappropriate videos meant for kids.” Brands which boycotted included Procter & Gamble and AT&T, which have since returned to the site.

On Wednesday, YouTube released an update to their policies on how they will handle content which “crosses the line.”

Blain: “What We Saw In San Francisco Was Frightful”

Blain’s Morning Porridge, submitted by Bill Blain

It will be a short comment this morning as I play catch up and try to figure out if we should be worried that it’s the Year of the PIG. Sounds great, but I’m supposed to be on a diet.

Reason for catch up is I’ve just spent a week with 300 or so like-minded bankers, brokers, fund managers and tech-experts at Interbourse; the largest annual Ski event across the financial services sector. It’s been running for over 50 years. All the major markets were represented – and aside from great skiing in Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows, California, there were some great (liquid-fuelled) discussions on markets. The 2020 event will be in Switzerland.

Let me sum up the week with some of the strands of opinion heard in the resort:

The Europeans don’t understand why the UK is so keen on Economic Suicide via Brexit. The Brits don’t understand why the Europeans are so keen on the EU and Euro. The Hedge Fund managers reckon the real effects of Brexit are being massively overestimated and see value across markets. The Tech sector analysts think we’re on the cusp of massive upside in Tech Stocks. Everyone is worried about populism. The Canadians had more fun than anyone else. The Germans took it quite seriously. Everyone was fine and dandy with the Fed applying the brakes to policy normalisation. Everyone was looking to earnings. I still don’t understand Coin-Token Driven IPOs. No one could quite understand why Trump is so keen on the Wall – liberal doses of Tequila proved a great way of easing strained muscles.

Yep, the usual kind of conference. Lots of people happily explaining their views to people happy to listen. However, I do understand markets continued without me last week – and am still playing catch up on what I missed. Some great stuff in the papers (from Bill Gross, Deutsche Bank, Airlines, Saudi, and whatever else) and some excellent commentaries, but I think I’ll ring round clients for the real stuff. 

BUT…

Turning the mood on its head – and no doubt attracting much comment for the hypocrisy of commenting about a luxury ski trip and then poverty – I have to comment on the contrast between the skiing and spending some time in San Francisco.

I hope my American hosts will forgive me for raising this, but the squalor we saw in The City was frightful. San Francisco has always been one of favourite US cities, but the degree of homelessness, mental illness and drug abuse we saw on this trip was truly shocking. Walking round SF on a Sunday Morning and we saw sights we couldn’t believe. This must be one of the richest cities in the world – home to 4 of the 10 richest people on the planet according to Wiki. I asked friends about it, and they shrugged it off.. “The City has always attracted the homeless because of the mild weather,”.. “It’s a drug thing”.. “its too difficult”… “you get used to it..”

Well, I didn’t.

I found it quite shocking the number of folk sleeping rough on the sidewalks, the smell of weed and drug impedimenta everywhere, the filth, mental illness and degradation on view just a few meters from the financial centre driving Silicon Valley. It’s a city where the destitute seem to have become invisible to the Uber hailing elites. We found ourselves hopping on one of the beautiful F-Route Trolley Buses to find nearly every seat occupied by someone lugging around their worldly possessions around in a plastic bag. It was desperately sad.

I read an article from Businessweek  speaking about the success of a $5mm 50-employee scheme launched last year seeking to identify and address the problems of the City. $5mm? Really. Same article says I read there are around 7500 homeless in the City – which I reckon must be a massive underestimation. It says homelessness in Los Angeles is over 60,000.

What has homelessness and urban poverty in San Francisco got to do with markets you might ask?

Everything. Absolutely everything.

TSA Busted Running $100 Million Cocaine Smuggling Ring

TSA caught running $100 million dollar cocaine ring

A large number of TSA employees are facing life in prison after abusing their positions to smuggle over 100 million dollars of cocaine into the U.S. from Puerto Rico. 

Twelve members of the cocaine ring, including TSA baggage screeners and security personnel are facing charges of conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute.

Aol.com reports: Authorities say as much as 20 tons of cocaine over an 18 year period was smuggled in.

They claim A baggage handler in the ring picked up cocaine filled suitcases at check-in counters and put them into TSA X-Ray machines that another suspect cleared.

After, the baggage handler took them to their respective flights, making sure no police or K-9 units intervened.

According to reports, up to five smugglers were used in each flight, each carrying as much as 33 pounds of the illegal substance at a time.

This comes in the heels of a homeland security report that found many of the major U.S. airports do not have full employee screenings.

YouTube Apologizes after Removing Investigative Video about a Planned Parenthood Worker Aiding Sex-Traffickers

YouTube Apologizes after Removing Investigative Video about a Planned Parenthood Worker Aiding Sex-Traffickers

Kayla Koslosky | ChristianHeadlines.com Editor |

YouTube has apologized to pro-life group Live Action after the platform removed an investigative video on Planned Parenthood.

According to CBN News, YouTube removed a video posted by Live Action that showed a Planned Parenthood employee giving advice to two people posed as a “pimp” and a “prostitute” on how and where to get sex trafficked minors abortions.

YouTube removed the video and sent Lila Rose, Live Action’s president, an email claiming that the video violated the platform’s community standards.

Rose took to Twitter to voice her frustration with YouTube writing, “YouTube just removed one of our investigative videos exposing Planned Parenthood aiding and abetting the sex trafficking of young girl, saying it violated ‘Community Guidelines.’”

After posting the tweet along with a clip from the video people were immediately appalled by the footage and frustrated with YouTube.

One Twitter user named KJW wrote, “YouTube should be ashamed.”

Another wrote, “How could you tube(sic) take this off? This is Very important news that needs to be out there to help us make proper decision[s] regarding PP!!”

YouTube immediately responded to Rose’s tweet with an apology and admitted that the removal of the video was a mistake on their end. Team YouTube wrote, “Confirmed that this was a mistake on our end–the video is now reinstated. Apologies for the frustration this may have caused.”

Rose later confirmed that YouTube had indeed reinstated the video. She wrote, “@YouTube has now reinstated our video and removed the strikes from our account. Thank you for everyone’s support in the spreading the word about this – publicizing YouTube’s actions DO help.

Shock Poll Reveals Surprising Result Between Ocasio-Cortez And Trump In 2020

A new Rasmussen poll found that President Trump and “insurgent” Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY) would be neck and neck in a hypothetical 2020 presidential matchup.

Were the 29-year-old Democrat old enough to run…

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that, if the 2020 presidential race was between Trump and Ocasio-Cortez, 43% of Likely U.S. Voters would vote for Trump, while 40% would vote for Ocasio-Cortez. A sizable 17% are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

This is essentially a tie, given the margin of error for this survey is +/- three percentage points.

Not surprisingly, 69% of Democrats would rather vote for Ocasio-Cortez, while 75% of Republicans would cast a ballot to reelect Trump. Trump is the favorite among voters not affiliated with either political party by a 46% to 35% margin.

Among all voters, 34% have a favorable opinion of Ocasio-Cortez. Forty percent (40%) have an unfavorable impression of the New York lawmaker. These figures include 16% who have a Very Favorable opinion of her and 26% who view her very unfavorably. Twenty-six (26%) don’t know enough about Ocasio-Cortez to offer an opinion of her. –Rasmussen

The poll, which sampled 1,000 likely voters between January 10 and 13, also found that most voters think Trump will likely win again in 2020 – although Democrats are “more enthusiastically” entering the upcoming presidential election than other voters. 

48% of men polled prefer Trump over Ocasio-Cortez, while 39% of women said the same. 43% of women preferred Ocasio-Cortez. 

By race, black and other minority voters supported Ocasop-Cortez in the hypothetical matchup, whild almost half of white voters preferred Trump. 

Looking ahead

An August poll put former Vice President Joe Biden ahead of other Democrats as the top contender to take on Trump in 2020, with Bernie Sanders coming in a “fading second,” according to Rasmussen

Perhaps most notable, however, is that three-out-of-four Democrats think their party needs someone new to enter the 2020 race – at least six-months ago. 

Up to 40 prominent Democrats are estimated to throw their hats in the ring for the party’s 2020 nomination, which has rubbed many Democrat voters the wrong way

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) prompted mocking on social media after they delivered a wooden rebuttal while being squished together behind one podium.

Their rebuttal drew comparison after comparison to concerned parents scolding their child:

One journalist asked why there were six flags behind Pelosi and Schumer. “One for each ring of hell,” another responded.

Their performance was deemed so ridiculous that the National Republican Congressional Committee’s Twitter account used a picture of them as their account banner.

Ronna McDaniel, chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, released a statement comparing Trump’s address to theirs.

“Tonight, Americans saw their president fighting for a solution to fund our government while protecting American citizens, versus the approach of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer which is to resist, resist, resist at all costs,” she said.

Online child porn leader severely beaten, killed in Michigan federal detention center ,

Christian Maire targeted more than 100 underage girls nationwide

Source:

A man sentenced to 40 years in prison for leading an international child pornography ring was severely beaten and died following a fight with several inmates at federal detention center in southeast Michigan, the Detroit Free Press reported.

Christian Maire, 40, was pronounced dead at the Milan detention center, which is about 45 miles southwest of Detroit. The detention center is located next to the low-security Milan prison. Maire was from Binghamton, New York.

What was the crime?

Maire’s case drew national attention after federal prosecutors showed how he and a group of other men manipulated and lured more than 100 girls nationwide into their underage porn ring. An Oakland County, Michigan, girl helped the FBI dismantle the operation in 2017.

The victims ranged in age from 10 to 17.

The men coerced the girls into performing sex acts on camera and held “trust-building” sessions that involved winning a victim’s trust if she was suicidal or was cutting herself, for example.

They recruited victims by pretending to be teenage boys. First, they stole pictures online and set up fake profiles. Next, they “scoured popular social media sites looking for targets. Their hunting grounds included Gifyo, Periscope, YouNow, and MyLOL.com, which describes itself as ‘the No. 1 teen dating site in the U.S., Australia, U.K. and Canada,’ ” the Detroit Free Press reported.

In December, Maire, a married father of two from New York, “sobbed in court, telling the judge, ‘I am sick,’ ” as he begged for a chance to redeem himself, according to reports.

Details on his death were not immediately released, but it was labeled an apparent homicide. Visiting hours at the prison were suspended and it was placed on “limited operational status,” the Detroit Free Press reported.

Three inmates involved in the fight sustained serious injuries and two prison staffers had minor injuries.

Who else was sentenced?

Before sentencing, U.S. District Judge Stephen Murphy said in December. “The amount of psychological damage done to the victims is of a very serious concern. This behavior deserves an extremely serious punishment.”

The Detroit Free Press listed the others in the child porn ring and their sentences, as follows:

  • Arthur Simpatico, 47, of Mississauga, Ontario, Canada; sentenced to 38 years.
  • Jonathan Negroni Rodriguez, 37, of West Hollywood, California; was sentenced to 35 years.
  • Michal Figura, 36, of Swarthmore, Pennsylvania; sentenced to 31¼ years.
  • Odell Ortega, 37, of Miami; sentenced to 37½ years.
  • Brett Jonathan Sinta, 36, of Hickory, North Carolina; sentenced to 30½ years.
  • Caleb Young, 38, of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio; sentenced to 30 years.
  • Daniel Walton, 34 Saginaw, Texas; sentenced to 30½ years.

NASA New Horizons Will Flyby a 30 km Object that is 4 Billion Miles Away

In 2014 the New Horizons team found an object that is now called Ultima Thule. It is located in the Kuiper belt in the outermost regions of the Solar System, beyond the orbit of Neptune. On January 1, 2019, New Horizons will flyby Ultima Thule at a distance of 3500 km (2200 miles). It will be at a distance of almost 6.5 billion km (4 billion miles) from the Sun, making this the most distant planetary flyby that has yet been attempted, and the first time that a Solar System object of this type has been seen close-up.

Ultima Thule measures approximately 30 kilometers in diameter and is irregularly shaped. In July 2017, Ultima Thule passed in front of a star as seen from Earth (a stellar occultation), allowing astronomers to determine that its shape is most likely a contact binary (two bodies that are touching) or a close binary system (two objects that are orbiting each other).

The lighting environment at its surface is very dim, as it receives only about 0.05% of the light from the Sun that Earth does. We do know that Ultima Thule has a reddish color, probably caused by exposure of hydrocarbons to sunlight over billions of years. The flyby will also reveal whether it has any moons, or even a ring system. Ultima Thule belongs to a class of Kuiper belt objects called the “cold classicals”, which have nearly circular orbits with low inclinations to the solar plane, and which have not been perturbed since their formation perhaps 4.6 billion years ago. Ultima Thule will therefore be the most primitive planetary object yet explored, and will reveal to us what conditions were like in this distant part of the Solar System as it condensed from the solar nebula.

Security Troops At Wyoming Nuclear Missile Base Used and Distributed LSD

Several Air Force members charged with guarding some of the most powerful nuclear weapons in the United State’s arsenal have been busted as part of a drug ring that bought, sold, distributed and regularly used LSD and other mind-altering drugs.

The airmen, serving at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming as part of the 90th Missile Wing, were caught by investigators following a slip-up by one of the servicemen on social media. Those involved were first caught in March 2016, but the details of their case have only recently been made public after records describing the incident were obtained by the Associated Press. Most of the servicemen entangled in the case were responsible for the security and defense of the nuclear weapons on-site as well as the base’s missile complex.

In total, fourteen airmen were disciplined, six of whom were convicted in courts martial for LSD use and distribution. Furthermore, the court documents detailing the incident made no mention of whether LSD’s secondary effects, such as flashbacks or serious, long-lasting problems that can develop after a negative hallucinogenic experience, had affected the soldiers’ behavior while on the job. Some of the soldiers admitted that, under the influence of hallucinogens, they would not have been able to respond if called to duty to respond to a nuclear security emergency.

While none of the airmen admitted to using LSD or other drugs while on duty, and were reportedly not accused of on-duty drug use, the AP’s report noted that “Air Force investigators found those implicated in the F.E. Warren drug ring used LSD on base and off, at least twice at outdoor gatherings. Some also snorted cocaine and used ecstasy. Civilians joined them in the LSD use, including some who had recently left Air Force service, according to two officials with knowledge of the investigation.”

The drug ring involving members of F.E. Warren Air Force Base is the latest scandal for the Air Force’s nuclear missile corps as reports of illicit drug use and widespread cheating on missileer’s proficiency tests at other nuclear-armed bases have been exposed in recent years. Drug use has been the thornier of the issues, as other bases have found the use of other drugs such as ecstasy and amphetamines to be surprisingly common. Some analysts have cited low morale and the young age and lack of experience of the servicemen serving at these bases as underlying problems that have allowed these issues to take root. Others have pointed to a lack of investment in the nuclear missile corps by the federal government.

Despite those lingering problems, the missile force has been thrust back into the spotlight due to President Donald Trump’s calls to strengthen the country’s nuclear might following threats exchanged with North Korea last year and the recent cancellation of peace talks aimed at resolving tensions between the two nuclear powers. However, the recent revelation given the low morale and prolific drug use of servicemen charged with guarding the country’s nuclear weapons may give Americans pause as to whether more nuclear weapons are the solution to the U.S.’ foreign policy conflicts.

Security Troops At Wyoming Nuclear Missile Base Used and Distributed LSD

Several Air Force members charged with guarding some of the most powerful nuclear weapons in the United State’s arsenal have been busted as part of a drug ring that bought, sold, distributed and regularly used LSD and other mind-altering drugs.

The airmen, serving at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming as part of the 90th Missile Wing, were caught by investigators following a slip-up by one of the servicemen on social media. Those involved were first caught in March 2016, but the details of their case have only recently been made public after records describing the incident were obtained by the Associated Press. Most of the servicemen entangled in the case were responsible for the security and defense of the nuclear weapons on-site as well as the base’s missile complex.

In total, fourteen airmen were disciplined, six of whom were convicted in courts martial for LSD use and distribution. Furthermore, the court documents detailing the incident made no mention of whether LSD’s secondary effects, such as flashbacks or serious, long-lasting problems that can develop after a negative hallucinogenic experience, had affected the soldiers’ behavior while on the job. Some of the soldiers admitted that, under the influence of hallucinogens, they would not have been able to respond if called to duty to respond to a nuclear security emergency.

While none of the airmen admitted to using LSD or other drugs while on duty, and were reportedly not accused of on-duty drug use, the AP’s report noted that “Air Force investigators found those implicated in the F.E. Warren drug ring used LSD on base and off, at least twice at outdoor gatherings. Some also snorted cocaine and used ecstasy. Civilians joined them in the LSD use, including some who had recently left Air Force service, according to two officials with knowledge of the investigation.”

The drug ring involving members of F.E. Warren Air Force Base is the latest scandal for the Air Force’s nuclear missile corps as reports of illicit drug use and widespread cheating on missileer’s proficiency tests at other nuclear-armed bases have been exposed in recent years. Drug use has been the thornier of the issues, as other bases have found the use of other drugs such as ecstasy and amphetamines to be surprisingly common. Some analysts have cited low morale and the young age and lack of experience of the servicemen serving at these bases as underlying problems that have allowed these issues to take root. Others have pointed to a lack of investment in the nuclear missile corps by the federal government.

Despite those lingering problems, the missile force has been thrust back into the spotlight due to President Donald Trump’s calls to strengthen the country’s nuclear might following threats exchanged with North Korea last year and the recent cancellation of peace talks aimed at resolving tensions between the two nuclear powers.

Mysterious Objects Punching Holes In Weird Saturn Ring

Mysterious objects appear to be doing some damage to Saturn’s “weirdest ring,” scientists say. The discovery comes from detailed photos taken of the Saturn system by NASA’s Cassini orbiter. In these images, researchers spotted strange objects about a half-mile (kilometer) wide tearing through Saturn’s F ring, the thin outermost discrete ring around the planet. As they pass through the ring, …
