Cameron announces 26 new Tory peers in dissolution honours

"David Cameron is facing accusations of "cronyism" after handing 26 peerages to former Tory ministers and aides"

[---]

"The list includes ex-Tory leader William Hague and Mr Cameron's Downing Street "gatekeeper" Kate Fall.

The Lib Dems get 11 peers, with eight for Labour, making a total of 45 new Lords members, swelling the total size of the Upper House to 826.

The SNP branded it "a sorry list of rejected politicians, cronies and hangers-on with big chequebooks"."

"Great Surprise"—Native Americans Have West Eurasian Origins

Migration Mysteries

"At a site in Virginia called Cactus Hill, archaeologists have found an assemblage of artifacts that challenges scientific ideas about the first Americans. The conventional wisdom was that Native Americans are descended from a small band of people from northeast Asia who crossed over a now-vanished land bridge that extended between Siberia and Alaska between 12,000 to 15,000 years ago.

But the artifacts at Cactus Hill dated back to 16,000 B.C. What’s more, stone spear points found at the site are reminiscent of those made by a Stone Age culture in southwest France, called the Solutreans, that ended 18,000 years ago."

Global Warming: A $1.5 Trillion Industry

"What is striking about the global warming industry is that its growth is driven more or less entirely by “policymaking,” i.e., government mandates and other policies. This is why “green” businesses contribute so lavishly to the political campaigns of politicians who drink the global warming Kool-aid."

Tell us something we didn't know.

Anjem Choudary faces UK terrorism charges over Islamic State

The once great Britain has found greatness again!!!

"He and another man Mohammed Rahman, indicated they would plead not guilty.

Anjem Choudary was remanded in custody until 28 August.

Both men have each been charged with one offence under section 12 of the Terrorism Act 2000, alleged to have taken place between 29 June 2014 and 6 March this year.

The BBC's Simon Jones, reporting from outside the court, said that when asked by the judge to give an indication of how he would be pleading Choudary said: "Cameron and the police are guilty."
The judge replied to say he took that to mean he would be pleading not guilty.

Mr Choudary 48, was described in court as a "high-profile figure" in the media and on social media."

...sitting politicians of whatever stripe, nod their heads in unison, like a bunch of bobbleheads?

Unlike...

...some people, ("Canada’s support for Israel leading to its isolation, Iran warns

Canada stands tall and does the right thing.

I smell and election coming:

You can make a lot of enemies when you do the right thing.
