“Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding” (Proverbs 9:9-10).

A Utah man was arrested for firing a gun at his father after he came home with the wrong order of chicken wings, according to officials. Alika Unga Suliafu, 31, started an argument with his father when he returned to their Davis County apartment with a batch of wings that he did not like in October, according to court documents obtained by Fox 13. The father-son argument escalated until at one point, investigators say Suliafu retrieved a gun from another room and pointed it directly at his father, who begged him not to shoot. Just as Suliafu fired, his father...

They missed hundreds of serious adverse events that are more elevated than myocarditis. A new VAERS analysis done by Albert Benavides blows the doors off the "safe and effective" narrative. The CDC and FDA have said the vaccines are “safe and effective.” They haven't found any serious issues with the COVID vaccines. Zero. Zip. Nada. It was the DoD that found myocarditis. The evidence in plain sight shows that they are either lying or incompetent. Or both. But of course, the medical community is never going to call them on this. So that’s where our team of vaccine safety experts...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Inflation at the wholesale level rose 8.6% last month from a year earlier, matching September’s record annual gain and offering more evidence that inflationary pressures are not yet easing. The Labor Department reported Tuesday that its producer price index — which measures inflation before it hits consumers — rose 0.6% last month from September, pushed higher by surging gasoline prices. Excluding volatile food and energy prices, wholesale inflation was up 0.4% in October from September and 6.8% from a year ago. More than 60% of the September-October increase in overall producer prices was caused by a 1.2%...

A new poll from the University of Texas and the Texas Tribune indicates that the majority of people in the state support schools and indoor places requiring masks as well as allowing businesses to issue vaccine mandates. The survey of 1,200 people showed that 57 percent of Texas voters support masking in indoor locations in the state, reports The Texas Tribune, and finds that 58 percent back masking requirements in schools. Forty percent opposed the indoor masking requirements and 39 percent opposed masking in schools. Texas has emerged as a ground zero in the debate over masks and vaccines, with...

President Joe Biden says he’s been addressing supply chain problems “since Day One,” but that’s consisted mainly of appointing task forces and holding summits. His latest bold “action” was to beg G-20 leaders to “help address global supply chain issues.” × The one concrete step Biden has taken was, he said, to get the Los Angeles ports to stay open 24/7, which he announced on Oct. 13. Biden said this has the “potential to be a gamechanger.” A White House fact sheet declared that it “will speed up shipments of goods throughout the country.” Except, that’s not what’s happened. In...

...US Army Combat Capabilities Development Command or “DEVCOM,” a US Army-sponsored study by Texas A&M University has led to a development of an invention called a “centrifugal microfluidic platform,” which the Army says could have a major impact on the field of bioelectronics by accelerating the discovery of new biomaterials. Researchers’ published their findings earlier this year in the peer-reviewed journal Advanced Materials Technologies. “There’s a lot more that we can do to engineer organisms than was possible even five or ten years ago, and it has really opened up doors for developing new ways of making materials and understanding...

GLASGOW, Scotland — “Tuvalu is sinking,” Finance Minister Seve Paeniu proclaims of his island nation as he sits down for an interview with Yahoo News at the U.N. Climate Change Conference.

Altered function of the red blood cells leads to vascular damage in type 2 diabetes. Results from a new study in cells from patients with type 2 diabetes and mice show that this effect is caused by low levels of an important molecule in the red blood cells. The study by researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden has been published in the journal Diabetes. It is well known that patients with type 2 diabetes have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Over time type 2 diabetes may damage blood vessels, which could lead to life-threatening complications such as heart attack...

Jeremy Clarkson has been criticised online after saying 18-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg deserves a 'smacked bottom.' The Grand Tour star, 61, who lives in Chadlington, made the comment in a column for The Sunday Times as the Cop26 conference entered its second week - before going on to describe her as an 'annoying little bucket of ego.'

Former U.S. Senator Max Cleland (D-Ga.), who lost both legs and one arm in the Vietnam War and was defeated in his 2002 reelection bid by a Republican who argued he was too soft on terrorism and homeland security, died Tuesday at his home at the age at 79, according to The Atlanta-Journal Constitution. A close friend and care giver told the newspaper that Cleland died from heart failure. The family requests that donations to be made to the Max Cleland Leadership Program at Stetson University.

Editor’s note: In 1993, the late, great Chicago columnist Mike Royko wrote what may be the best column on Veterans Day ever. It’s reprinted below. I just phoned six friends and asked them what they will be doing on Monday. They all said the same thing: working. Me, too. There is something else we share. We are all military veterans. So how does this country honor them?... ...By letting the veterans, the majority of whom work in the private sector, spend the day at their jobs so they can pay taxes that permit millions of non-veterans to get paid for...

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R) announced on Tuesday that he will not run for Senate in 2022 and will instead seek another term as governor. The decision leaves an open field for other Republicans to challenge incumbent Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan (N.H.) in the midterms. Republicans in Washington, including National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee Chair Rick Scott (R-Fla.), had pushed for Sununu to launch a challenge against Hassan. The GOP views the seat, which non-partisan Cook Political Report rates it as “lean Democratic,” as a potential pickup in their bid to take back the Senate.

World leaders will turn their focus to gender Tuesday at the U.N. global climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland. Globally, women are more vulnerable to the effects of climate change than men, as they make up a majority of the world's poor and depend most on natural resources, according to the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. In the United States, one subgroup of women are particularly at risk: pregnant women. As global temperatures and emissions rise, so does the impact of climate change on public health. More pollutants from automobiles, fossil fuel plants and smoke from wildfires degrades air quality....

Former Gov. John Kasich (R-OH) warned Republicans Monday on CNN’s “The Situation Room” that those who downplay what happened during the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol are living in a “dystopian world.” Discussing how to enforce the House Select Committee’s subpoenas, anchor Wolf Blitzer said, “You know, Governor Kasich, what’s your message to some of the members of your own Republican Party who are actually happy to let these witnesses off the hook?”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Inequality can prevent the U.S. economy from reaching its potential, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said Tuesday, and he underscored the Fed’s commitment to reducing unemployment as broadly as possible, including among disadvantaged groups. “While monetary policy does not target any particular group of people ... we are attentive to disparities in the labor market, rather than just the headline numbers,” Powell said in remarks to a conference Tuesday on diversity and inclusion. Powell’s comments illustrate one reason why the Fed has been hesitant to reverse its low-interest rate policies even as inflation has spiked to three-decade...

“An illegal immigrant doesn’t get the vaccine and they’re released. A border patrol agent doesn’t get the vaccine and they’re removed. On what planet does that make sense?” ================================================================================== An internal report from within the US Customs and Border Protection agency suggests that more than half the border patrol workforce remains unvaccinated, and that if vaccine mandates are implemented it could leave just 8000 officers on duty. The document, obtained by Fox News, notes that 48 percent of agents have not registered their vaccination status, and of the 52 percent who have done that, ten percent are unvaccinated. Former chief...
