Yarrow the mustang had a colorful past before coming into Sierra’s care. The two were united when Sierra chose Yarrow back in February of this year in order to compete in the Colorado Extreme Mustang Makeover. The competition involved training a wild mustang to be tame within 100 days. Yarrow certainly demonstrates how tame she is by letting Elyot, Sierra’s Australian shepard, lead her around. Apparently she also lets Elyot climb onto her back! Credit: YouTube/Sierra Hawksley   Less

You can now call a police horse ‘gay’ in the UK, after the House of Lords ruled to amend a law allowing police to arrest any person who used insults. eight and half years ago, Sam Brown asked a police officer: ‘Excuse me, do you realize your horse is gay?’ The Oxford student was arrested for making homophobic remarks, but Brown refused to pay the £80 ($130, ) fine and the prosecution dropped the case. The following year,16-year-old Kyle Little from Newcastle was charged under the same Public Order Law. He said ‘woof’ to a dog in front of police officers and was fined £50 with £150 costs ($320,). Both were charged under Section 5 of Britain’s Public Order Act, which stated a person could be found guilty if they used threatening, abusive or insulting words or behavior. This week, it was announced the House of Lords voted overwhelmingly by 150 to 54 in favor of the amendment. Simon Calvert," Reform Section 5" campaign director, said it was a ‘victory for free speech.’ ‘People of all shades of opinion have suffered at the hands of" Section 5,"’ he said. ‘By accepting the Lords amendment to reform it the Government has managed to please the widest possible cross-section of society. They have done the right thing and we congratulate them.’   Less

Woman slain Friday in Hilo identified A woman who was found murdered in Hilo Friday has been identified. Hawaii island police said 49-year-old Danielle Caron, who had no permanent address, was identified through fingerprints. Caron was found dead off Kamehameha Avenue on Friday, and police said there were obvious signs of foul play. Video footage from the area led to the arrest of a 35-year-old Shiloh, Ill. who was staying at a hostel off Waianuenue Avenue on suspicion of second-degree murder. Curtis Q. Hodges, 35, was charged Saturday with second-degree murder in connection with the death early Friday of a homeless woman in the downtown Hilo area. Curtis Q. Hodges, 35, of Shiloh, was charged Saturday in connection with the murder of a homeless woman that occurred Friday in Hilo, Hawaii. An announcement posted to the Hawaii County Police Department’s website stated Hodges remains in custody at the Hilo Police Station. His bail was set at $500,000. Police Maj. Sam Thomas said Hodges would appear in court at 1:30 p.m. local time Monday. Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time is five hours behind Central Standard Time.Police first responded to a Hilo business shortly after midnight local time Friday after someone reported an unresponsive woman with injuries. Patrol officers immediately suspected foul play and developed Hodges as a suspect after examining the footage from security cameras in the area. Police arrested Hodges in a hostel around 11 a.m. local time Friday. According to the department statement, additional charges may be filed against Hodges after forensic tests are completed on the woman’s body. Police have identified the woman but have not released her name pending the notification of her family. Thomas would not describe the woman’s fatal injuries and would not say what additional charges may be filed against Hodges following the forensic testing.A second-degree murder charge indicates a victim’s death was a result of an attack that was neither premeditated nor carried out with exceptional violence, such as a rape, arson or armed robbery. #financial_support_div{ display:none; position: absolute; width:300px; height:180px; margin-left: -150px; margin-top: -70px; /*- half of width and height */ top:50%; left:50%; padding: 5px; opacity:0.9; filter:alpha(opacity=90); z-index:1000; background-color:#000; color: white; } .close_box{ background: gray; color:#fff; padding:1px 3px; display:inline; position:absolute; right:1px; margin-right: -13px; margin-top: -13px; border-radius:3px; cursor:pointer; border: 1px #000 solid; } $(document).on("click",".close_box",function(){ $(this).parent().fadeTo(300,0,function(){ $(this).remove(); }); }); Loading the player ...   Less

Volkswagen’s Total Recall: oh yeah, we cheated

The world’s number one car maker’s image is taking a beating, and with it the very credibility of clean diesel technology. Volkswagen’s name has been blackened by the accusations levelled at it by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Experts say openly: ‘Volkswagen has been cheating’. Analyst Sam Abuelsamid, at Navigant Research, said: “The EPA is accusing Volkswagen of essentially putting a cheat code into their engine management system for these diesel engines that would enable them to pass the emissions tests and also smog tests in states like California and other states, while emitting far more than the allowable amount of NOx during real-world driving.” ‘NOx’ refers to nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide, air pollutants that can provoke smog and acid rain and react with ozone. They are also linked to asthma and other respiratory ailments. The NGO International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) revealed it was VW’s vastly differing test scores that called for special attention. Drew Kodjak, ICCT Executive Director, said: “We were aware through our testing and other testing that light duty diesel, or passenger vehicles, their NOx emissions were very high in Europe. And so we thought, you know what? Let’s test a couple of light duty diesel vehicles, passenger diesels, here in the United States and show that you can actually meet the standards, not only in the test, but also in real world driving conditions.” The ICCT got the University of West Virginia involved, actually seeking confirmation that these diesels were cleaner. The Center for Alternative Fuels, Engines and Emissions (CAFEE) Interim Director Dan Carder said: “Under real world operating conditions the emissions levels were much higher than the certification levels that the manufacturers had reported to the regulatory agencies. And we saw huge discrepancies — one vehicle 15 to 35 times the emissions levels, another vehicle 10 to 20 times the emissions levels.” Onboard software — some sources say on all VW’s TDI cars — gives them a sort of self-awareness, knowing when they are being tested, and switching to ‘best behaviour’ mode, dropping emissions way down. Carder went on: “They know the speed and load set points that the engine or vehicle will encounter during certification testing. They know what questions basically will be on the exam before the exams happens. When you look at real world or in-use testing it’s whatever the driver is demanding.” The ICCT took its findings to the authorities in May 2014; they conveyed them to VW, but only the prospect of withholding certification made the company finally admit it had installed a defeat device.   Less

Clockmaking whiz kid Ahmed Mohamed seemed just as likely to become a criminal mastermind as a master engineer, according to one of his middle school teachers. “He was a weird little kid,” Ralph Kubiak, formerly of Sam Houston Middle School, told the Dallas Morning News Saturday about Mohamed, who became an overnight celebrity after his arrest for bringing a homemade clock to school. “He’s one of those that could either be CEO of a company or head of a gang,” the retired history teacher said. Mohamed was led out of his Texas high school earlier this month after school officials confused his complex clock for a bomb — a mistake that led to national accusations of Islamophobia.   Less

The Russian Air Force's support allowed the Syrian forces to liberate more than 50 settlements. Following the reports, SouthFront: Analysis & Intelligence can conclude that only Russian airstrikes killed 400-600 militants since the start of the military operation. Pro-government forces are advancing in the Aleppo, Latakia, Idlib, Hama and Damascus provinces. Despite the efforts on the ground and in the air, terrorists are holding their positions in a number of areas which have been turned in heavily protected points since the start of the Syrian war. Furthermore, and al-Nusra and ISIS have already united their military efforts in the Hama province. Separately, some al-Nusra units joined to the Ahrar ash-Sham group which Western media and officials call “moderate rebels”. Some other terrorist groups are also seeking to rebrand themselves in order to argue that the Russian anti-ISIS coalition fights against “moderate opposition” instead of terrorists. On October 26, the Jund al-Aqsa militant group leaved the Army of Conquest (Jaish al-Fatah) military operations coalition. The official reason was that another member of the Army of Conquest, Ajnad al-Sham suggested to fight ISIS. According to reports, ISIS executed about 200 militants tried to join al-Nusra. Militants wanted to change the terrrorist group because ISIS is a primary target of the Russian Air Force in Syria. There is unconfirmed information that Turkey and Saudi Arabia have a plan to supply SAM-8 and SAM-9 antiaircraft systems to the Syrian terrorist through Ukraine. The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) supported by Hezbollah and the National Defense Forces (NDF) imposed full control over the Ahad Mountains after a series of intense firefights with ISIS on November 2. According to the field reports the SAA and Hezbolalh also advanced north of the Ahad Mountains in order to control the remaining ISIS combatants that are entrenched along the Khanasser-Ithriya Highway that leads to the provincial capital of the Aleppo Governorate. Over the weekend, the Syrian Arab Army’s Central Command issued a statement inferring that the Khanasser-Ithriya Highway could be reopened as soon as Tuesday. However, this will not be an easy task due to the ISIS forces pushing north from their stronghold of ‘Aqaybat, which is located east of Al-Salamiyah and south of Sheikh Hilal. Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) advanced against the militants in the vicinity of al-Houl town towards the village of al-Bahra in al-Hasaka countryside on Monday, reports said. ISIS has killed 12 children, aged 12 to 16, recruited in Iraq’s northern city of Mosul apparently because they had tried to desert. The children were receiving training at Ashti military camp in Mosul. In their latest advance against ISIS militants, Iraqi army troops backed by volunteer forces have entered the city of Ramadi, which is currently under the control of the terrorist group. The Iraqi military advanced into the city center after crossing the strategic bridge of Albu Faraj, north of Ramadi. Reports said earlier in the day that Iraqi forces had killed a senior ISIS member, known as Abu Masab, in the northern part of the city.

Calls for a Muslim “shutdown” from Donald Trump have been slammed around the world. The Huffington Post calls the US presidential candidate’s campaign “an ugly and dangerous force in American politics.” A headline in New Yorker magazine reads “Donald Trump Is Now America’s Marine Le Pen.” Asked what prompted his “statement:“https://www.donaldjtrump.com/press-releases/donald-j.-trump-statement-on-preventing-muslim-immigration, Trump said, “death,” according to a spokeswoman cited by the New York Times. Trump was responding to last weeks San Bernardino massacre by two people who the FBI said were radicalised Muslims when he called for “a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.” His idea faced an immediate challenge to its legality and feasibility from experts. But the US constitution protects freedom of religion. “I don’t exactly agree with that. America was not founded on that kind of principle, America is a land for everyone, it’s a melting pot,” pointed out Jeffrey Moscher. “That’s what our founding fathers saw in us so I don’t think we need to be afraid of any one specific group of people or any one label that I don’t think represents that Muslim religion or Islam properly at all.” “I think it is a good idea with everything that’s going on in the world right now,” said Sam Suarez. “It sounds harsh but reality is reality.” JeffreyGoldberg, national correspondent for The Atlantic magazine tweeted that “Donald Trump is now an actual threat to national security. He’s providing jihadists ammunition for their campaign to demonize the US.” Donald Trump is now an actual threat to national security.

Hundreds of convicted killers are languishing in limbo on death row in California. No-one has been executed in the state in almost a decade yet courts continue to sentence defendants to die. Hence a build-up of condemned inmates at the state’s San Quentin prison, north of San Francisco. The media has been invited inside to meet them. “Currently there are 725 individuals who are housed here at San Quentin on death row,” Lieutenant Sam Robinson of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation told reporters. “The current death row population in the state of California is about 745. Those include women who are housed at another facility.” How Making A Murderer has been making people mad Support for capital punishment has fallen in California where just 13 people have been executed since the death penalty was reinstated in 1978. The most populous state in the country, California is liberal and a Democratic stronghold. Some prisoners awaiting execution at San Quentin have been on death row for more than three decades. Dozens have died of natural causes on California’s death row, the largest in the United States, and 24 have committed suicide. “Most of us sit here for years and years waiting on the appeals process, so it is not really something that is in the forefront of your mind,” said Charles Crawford, sentenced to death in 2002 for killing two people including a teenage girl. “It is like an abstract thought because it is not something that happens every day. Since I have been here, they have only carried out two executions, you know what I mean, so it is almost like it is not even a real punishment for a lot of people.” California’s system for imposing and carrying out the death penalty is so long and drawn-out that it amounts to cruel and unusual punishment and is unconstitutional, a federal judge ruled in 2014. Legal rows over drugs used in a series of botched lethal injections have contributed to a decline in the number of executions across the US. Death penalty rates plunge to lowest level in the US since 1970s https://t.co/BpzRivmK6h— The Guardian (@guardian) 16 Décembre 2015 Opposing camps in California are campaigning for the death penalty to be either speeded up or abolished altogether in 2016.   Less

The international terrorist and embezzler, Putin, sent his terror raiders to bomb the children of Huraytan today, (Feb 2nd, '16) Across northern Aleppo, Putin's terrorists have murdered upwards of twenty children today, as they cement their place as the No1 killer of civilians in Syria. The actual death toll from today's terrorist attacks may never be accurately established, as the current terror raids are creating far too much rubble for the civil defence volunteers to search/clear. The goal of the russians is of course to depopulate Aleppo Governorate by driving the populace into Turkey, and to a gangster regime which has no qualms about using SAMs against civilian airliners, bombing children is simply a means to an end.   Less

A father-of-three has been charged with attempted murder after he ran over a gun-wielding teenager who stole a pair of sneakers from him, ripping the younger's arm off. Phillip Pierre, 39, had arranged to meet Zachary Sam, 17, in Brooklyn, New York, at around 12.30pm on Friday in order to buy a $190 pair of Air Jordan 8 sneakers he advertised on Craigslist. But when he arrived police say Sam climbed into Pierre's Honda Pilot, pulled out a revolver and took the sneakers before attempting to walk away. CCTV of the incident shows Pierre made a U-turn and driving headlong at Sam as he was on the sidewalk, pulling him under the wheels and slamming him into a metal fence, tearing part of his right arm off.Despite his severe injuries, Sam can be seen squirming out from under the car and struggling with Pierre and several bystanders before fleeing up the street. Sam left his hand behind at the scene, along with the gun, and footage shows his sleeve flapping loosely in the wind as he runs.According to earlier reports, the boy managed to climb on to a bus further down the street, stunning passengers with his heavily bleeding arm. The driver is reported to have stopped the bus, allowing Pierre to catch up who then held Sam until the police and ambulance arrived.   Less
