A British teenager was sentenced to prison for life as the youngest woman to be convicted of plotting a terror attack on British soil.
Safaa Boular, 18, of Vauxhall, London, was convicted of preparing acts of terrorism and attempting to travel to Syria to join Islamic State militants.
She had been groomed online for terrorist activity by her fiancĂ©. She originally hoped to marry in Raqqa, the ISIS proclaimed capital in Syria, but was prevented from traveling there by police in April 2017. Hussain, 32, died in an airstrike.
In passing sentence, Judge Mark Dennis QC told Boular her views were "deeply entrenched" and "she was old enough to make her own decisions, and her own choices," the BBC reports.
Her older sister and their mother have already been jailed for plotting a knife attack in Westminster, The Independent reports.

The Grass is Greener...

About 100 escaped goats munched on manicured lawns in Idaho's capital city before being rounded up and hauled away Friday morning.  The owner of We Rent Goats told CBS Boise affiliate KBOI that the 118 goats were grazing at a nearby retention pond when they broke through a fence and went to explore. 
Multiple news outlets captured the goats calmly eating grass and shrubs in a Boise neighborhood before a trailer arrived amid applause from neighborhood residents.
The goats had been corralled near a local retention pond to eat weeds and other overgrowth, but - perhaps noticing the grass was greener next door - broke through a wooden fence to roam the neighborhood. 

Bison...

SOS...

Leading non-governmental organizations SOS Mediterranee and Doctors Without Borders (MSF) have announced that their migrant rescue ship Aquarius would resume patrolling the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Libya.
The humanitarian groups insist their duty is to rescue migrants attempting to reach Europe from Libya and to stop more migrants from dying at sea - 
Unsafe and overcrowded vessels run by human traffickers continue to attempt the dangerous crossing. But Italy’s new populist, coalition government acted on its campaign promise and abruptly put a stop the NGOs' "taxi-service" to Europe.
Since its 2011 uprising and ensuing instability, Libya has become one of the main transit points for migrations to Europe. Africa is moving to Italy.

And that was Hillary Clinton's hand. "We came, we saw, he died." and so is hundreds of thousands.... Opening Pandora's box....

After an international panel of experts reviewed the pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment for Alzheimer’s disease, they conclude that Non-pharmacological approaches were ranked as more important first-line interventions than drug treatments for those with behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia. These included evaluating for any underlying treatable cause first, followed by caregiver training, environment adaptation strategies, person-centered care approaches, and tailored activities for a person with dementia. 
 A provider is expected to prescribe something.  You need to do a physical, maybe get labs. If you’re just adding medications on top, you could be missing something big that's going on underneath and brewing.

Oh My...

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued an appeal to folks to not wash or reuse condoms.  Use a fresh one for each #sex act."
In addition to preventing pregnancies, halt the spread of most sexually transmitted diseases (chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis.)
"Incorrect use,  reuse or using more than one at a time, diminishes the protective effect by leading to breakage, slippage, or leakage." 
Soap and water won't kill all of the microorganisms on or inside and can also make the latex more prone to tear.
"You should use the condom in the way the manufacturer has intended and tested,"
