Pensacola's Levin Papantonio law firm has joined a coalition of attorneys suing the nation of Iran on behalf of 34 families who suffered death or injury at the hands of terrorists.

The suit alleges Iran has provided munitions, funding, training, supplies, advisers and other support for a multitude of terrorist organizations operating throughout the Middle East, organizations known as Hezbollah, Ansar al-Islam and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard.

A big can of worms will open.   Just a thought.

Kathy Griffin will not be back as co-host of CNN's annual New Year's Eve program.

CNN's decision comes one day after photos were released of Griffin that showed the comedian holding up a bloody head.

"CNN has terminated our agreement with Kathy Griffin to appear on our New Year's Eve program," the network said in a statement.

Griffin has apologized for the photos.......
"I beg for your forgiveness. I went too far," she said. "I made a mistake and I was wrong."

Admitting the images were "too disturbing," ......
Griffin has co-hosted CNN's annual New Year's Eve program alongside Anderson Cooper since 2007.   And who is this Photographer any way?

A JetBlue passenger says the airline has apologized to her after gate agents at Logan Airport forced her to change her shorts because they were too short, CBS Boston reports.

The woman from Seattle, a burlesque performer who goes by the name Maggie McMuffin, was stopped after she tried to board a connecting flight at Logan wearing a sweater, thigh high socks and shorts.

She said she was told, "The pilot had decided that I needed to put something else on or I would not be allowed to board the flight."  She was not questioned on her flight out of New York. 

"We support our crewmembers' discretion to make these difficult decisions," JetBlue said in a statement and they "determined the burlesque shorts may offend other families on the flight."
JetBlue did give Maggie a $200 credit and a refund for the new shorts.  Just a thought.

Warned...

The U.S. military is concerned about two groups of pro-Syrian regime forces near a coalition training facility at Tanf, Syria, and has asked some pro-regime forces to leave the area. The facility trains local partner forces to combat ISIS in southeastern Syria. ???

The U.S. has warned the groups that they are inside and around a "deconfliction zone" established by the U.S. and Russia. 

"We have increased our presence and our footprint and prepared for any threat that is presented by the pro-regime forces," Dillon said.

According to Dillon, there are "a couple hundred" U.S., coalition and partner forces at Tanf. He said the U.S. has also increased its presence, including combat power, in that area and that it continues to fly combat air patrols.

Do we need to be in Syria? Seriously?

Any One...?

Japanese people enjoy one of the longest average life spans in the world  86 years for women and 79 for men (80 & 75 respective for Americans)  with far lower rates of obesity and chronic diseases like osteoporosis, heart disease and some types of cancer.

The diet incorporates lower-calorie foods served in controlled portions. They eat around 25 per cent fewer calories than the average western person.

The secret is to replace energy-dense foods, like chocolate, potato chips, and cookies, with less energy-dense, like fruits, vegetables, etc. In a study from Penn. State U., researchers served women meals that were 25% smaller than average and contained 30% fewer calories according to the principles of energy density. They ended up eating an average of 800 calories less per day, without missing the extra food.

The Japanese achieve a lot of physical activity by simple actions such as walking, climbing stairs and using a bicycle to run errands. Try the new method, it may work for you.  Just a thought.
