The Glitch...

Dannemora is a town in Clinton County, New York. The population was 4,898 at the 2010 census. The town is named after Dannemora, Sweden, an important iron-mining region.

Prison seamstress Joyce Mitchell, pleaded guilty to helping two inmates escape, told investigators that she performed sexual acts on one of the men and sent X-rated selfies to the other and knew the duo planned to kill her husband, police documents show.

Mitchell told investigators that inmates Richard Matt and David Sweat nicknamed her husband, "the glitch" and gave her small round pills to drug him with.

" I was caught up in the fantasy," Mitchell said "I enjoyed the attention, the feeling both of them gave me and the thought of a different life."

After three weeks on the run near the Canadian border, Matt was shot and killed by law enforcement officers in Malone on June 26, while Sweat was shot and captured in nearby Constable on June 28.

Files...

Hundreds of illegal immigrants attempting to cross the southern border as part of massive migrant caravans were found to have criminal histories in the U.S., according to newly obtained Department of Homeland Security documents.

The DHS files were provided to House Oversight Committee included internal data showing more than 1,000 migrants traveling as part of caravans to the border within the past nine months had “U.S. criminal histories” and hundreds had “U.S. criminal convictions.”

One migrant caravan of nearly 8,000 individuals arrived south of California by December 2018. According to (ICE), 660 of them had U.S. criminal convictions—with 40 convicted of assault or aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and three convicted of murder.

In January 2019,  another caravan that left Honduras with more than 3,300 migrants. ICE identified 860 of those individuals had U.S. criminal histories, including more than 20 convicted of assault or aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, nearly 30 convicted of sexual offenses, two convicted of violence against law enforcement, and one convicted of attempted murder.

Deficit...

The “calories in versus calories out” model is based on the idea that to maintain a stable weight, the number of calories you eat needs to match the number you expend.

“Calories in” refers to the calories you get from the foods you eat, while “calories out” is the number of calories you burn.

There are three main bodily processes that burn calories: 
Metabolism, digestion, and physical activity

When the number of calories you take in from food matches the number of calories you burn to sustain your metabolism, digestion, and physical activity, your weight will remain stable.

Thus, the “calories in versus calories out” model is strictly true. You need a calorie deficit to lose weight.

Tonkin...

The Gulf of Tonkin Incident occurred in August 1964. North Vietnamese warships purportedly attacked United States warships, the U.S.S. Maddox and the U.S.S. C. Turner Joy, on two separate occasions in the Gulf of Tonkin, a body of water neighboring modern-day Vietnam. 

President Lyndon Baines Johnson claimed that the United States did nothing to provoke these two attacks and that North Vietnam was the aggressor. Subsequent reports show that the United States actually provoked these attacks by supporting South Vietnamese commandos operating in North Vietnam and by using U.S. warships to identify North Vietnamese radar stations along the coastline of North Vietnam. 

The official US Department of Defense figure was 950,765 communist forces killed in Vietnam from 1965 to 1974.  

The U.S. military has estimated that between 200,000 and 250,000 South Vietnamese soldiers died in the war. In 1982 the Vietnam Veterans Memorial was dedicated in Washington, D.C., inscribed with the names of 57,939 members of U.S. armed forces who had died or were missing as a result of the war.

Equal...

While the “calories in versus calories out” model matters for weight loss, not all calories are created equal when it comes to your health.

That’s because different foods have different effects on various processes in your body, regardless of calorie contents.

 Glucose and fructose serve as a good example.

A diet too rich in added fructose is linked to insulin resistance, increased blood sugar levels, and higher triglyceride and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels than a diet providing the same number of calories from glucoseTrusted Sou.

Fruit, which contains natural fructose along with fiber and water, does not have the same negative effects.

Diets rich in polyunsaturated fats appear to boost fertility in healthy womenTrusted Sour.

Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats in your diet may further lower your risk of heart disease.

Your nutrient intake impacts your hunger and feelings of fullness.

Eating a 100-calorie serving of beans will reduce your hunger much more effectively than eating a 100-calorie serving of candy.

Dense...

The amount of nutrients a food contains per calorie can vary greatly.

Nutrient-dense foods provide higher amounts of vitamins, minerals, and beneficial compounds per gram compared with less nutrient-dense foods.

Nutrient-dense foods include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, meat, fish, poultry, dairy products, and unsalted nuts and seeds.

Processed foods, including white pasta, soda, cookies, chips, ice cream, and alcohol are considered to have a low nutrient density.

Diets rich in nutrient-dense foods are consistently linked to a lower risk of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease, and may even help you live longer.

The “calories in versus calories out” model fails to take nutrient density into account, which is a good reason to doubt its relevance when it comes to your health

Doxxing...

A second aide to New Hampshire Democrat Sen. Maggie Hassan is facing federal charges stemming from a scheme to publicly post the personal information of several Republican politicians amid the contentious confirmation hearings for now-Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

The aide, Samantha Deforest Davis, was a staff assistant in Hassan’s office from August 2017 until last December. She was fired after Capitol Police discovered her possible involvement in the so-called "doxing" effort.

Court documents accuse Davis of aiding 27-year-old Jackson A. Cosko, a former Hassan aide who has pleaded guilty to five federal offenses, including two counts of making public restricted personal information, and one count each of computer fraud, witness tampering and obstruction of justice.

Prosecutors alleged that Davis was persuaded by Cosko to "wipe down" Senate computers he had hacked. Davis now faces two misdemeanor charges: one federal count of aiding and abetting computer fraud and a District count of attempted evidence tampering, the Washington Post reported.

Rhetoric...

President Trump has privately pushed his representatives to walk back their tough talk on Iran and reiterate that the administration is not aiming to go to war with Tehran.

Two senior officials with direct knowledge of the administration’s strategy in the region tell The Daily Beast that the president has asked officials to tone down their heated rhetoric on Iran, despite the attacks on tanker ships in the Gulf of Oman that Washington has blamed on Tehran. The president has previously said he is less hawkish on Iran than some of his advisers and this week, in a Time magazine interview, said the attacks on the tankers were “very minor.”

Over the last several days in public testimony and in closed-door briefings, Trump administration officials have tried to calm lawmakers on Capitol Hill who are wary of the administration evading Congress to launch a military confrontation with Tehran.  

Blessed are the peacemakers.  Just a thought.

Systematic...

New York 1 became part of the news Wednesday as it has been named in an age and gender discrimination lawsuit filed in Manhattan federal court.

The suit was brought by five anchorwomen who claim there was a systematic effort by managers to force them off the air in favor of younger, less experienced hosts.

The plaintiffs include Roma Torre, one of the channel's longest-serving anchors.

She tells the New York Times, "We feel we are being railroaded out of this place...while men age on TV with a sense of gravitas, and we as women have an expiration date...and we were told to stop complaining."

The other plaintiffs are Amanda Farinacci, Vivian Lee, Jeanine Ramirez and Kristen Shaughnessy.

A spokeswoman for Charter Communications says more than half of NY1's on-air talent are female and that more than half are over 40.

Order...

Climate change is real, but is not going to happen tomorrow. So let us not shut down the economy and run for the hills. We have so much time to adjust, invent, create and manage the change.
