"THAT’S WHY GOD INVENTED SHOES AND ROLLED-UP MAGAZINES:
Spiders could theoretically eat every human on Earth in one year.
“There’s a good chance at least one spider is staring at you right now, sizing you up from a darkened corner of the room, eight eyes glistening in the shadows.”
Plus: “The world’s spiders consume somewhere between 400 million and 800 million tons of prey in any given year.
That means that spiders eat at least as much meat as all 7 billion humans on the planet combined, who the authors note consume about 400 million tons of meat and fish each year.
Or, for a slightly more disturbing comparison:
The total biomass of all adult humans on Earth is estimated to be 287 million tons.
Even if you tack on another 70 million-ish tons to account for the weight of kids, it’s still not equal to the total amount of food eaten by spiders in a given year, exceeding the total weight of humanity. In other words, spiders could eat all of us and still be hungry.”

Seattle-based cruise line stops port calls at Mexican resort of Acapulco | The Seattle Times: "MEXICO CITY (AP) — The U.S. cruise ship line Holland America says it has halted port calls at Mexico’s troubled resort city of Acapulco and will sail to other destinations in the country “due to recent security concerns.”The news comes as Acapulco hosts an annual tourism fair that officials hope will spark a rebound at the once-glamorous resort.
The Seattle-based Holland America says in a statement Monday that eight cruises which once stopped in Acapulco will instead go to other Mexican destinations in 2017 and 2018.
Acapulco and areas inland in the Pacific coast state of Guerrero have been plagued by high levels of crime and drug gang killings..."

Sessions to Sanctuary Cities: Obey The Law Or Pay The Price [Video]:
"Sessions said he is asking nothing more than obedience to the law of the land.
“Today, I am urging states and local jurisdictions to comply with these federal laws,” he added.
Sessions specifically singled out Maryland, which is considering a proposal to become a sanctuary state. That step comes at the same time as the state has been rocked by the reported rape of a 14-year-old in her Rockville, Md., high school by two older students, at least one of whom is an illegal immigrant."

Find adds to series of wells that may be biggest beneath UK waters this century.
"...Hurricane is expected to announce that initial data from its Halifax well indicates the presence of a 1km-deep oil column and that, crucially, it appears to be part of “a single large hydrocarbon accumulation” connected to the company’s adjacent Lancaster field.
This would increase confidence behind the London-listed explorer’s claim to be sitting on the largest undeveloped discovery on the UK continental shelf and aid efforts to attract investment in the field from international oil majors."

Claim: Russia Has Created A Devastating Zircon Hypersonic Missile That Will Rip Right Through U.S. Warships: "Unstoppable... Unbeatable... Undefendable"
Claim: Russia Has Created A Devastating Zircon Hypersonic Missile That Will Rip Right Through U.S. Warships: "Unstoppable... Unbeatable... Undefendable":
As President Trump ratchets up the U.S. military in his latest budget proposal, his counterpart, Russian President Vladimir Putin, has reportedly created a hypersonic missile with such devastating implications for the U.S. Navy, that it is being called “unstoppable.”
Russia claims to have created a devastating hypersonic missile that travels five times faster than the speed of sound and could rip through navy warship defences because it’s too fast to stop.
The Kremlin’s Zircon missile has been called “unstoppable”, “unbeatable” and “undefendable” with a 4,600mph speed that only one defence system in the world can destroy – that system is owned by Russia.
The missile employs revolutionary scramjet technology to reach its hypersonic speeds whereby propulsion is created by forcing air from the atmosphere into its combustor where it mixes with on-board fuel – rather than carry both fuel and oxidizer like traditional rockets. This makes it lighter, and therefore much faster.…
The US Navy warns it could be fitted to Russia’s nuclear-powered Kirkov warship, where it would have a range of up to 500 miles.
In comparison, the Royal Navy’s Sea Ceptor missile, which is designed to destroy incoming missiles can only travel 15 miles and hit top speeds of 2,300mph.
Full report: International Business Time
Reports indicate that no counter measures for the Zircon missile exist. If true, then the majority of the U.S. Naval fleet has just been rendered obsolete.
Feminist Wants To Criminalize Stay-at-Home Moms
Feminist Wants To Criminalize Stay-at-Home Moms:
"Many feminists claim that all they want is equality -- for the sexes to be treated the same. Meanwhile, critics such as myself argue that what feminists say and what they do don't line up particularly well.
For example, they claim to want equal representation and pay in the workplace, but then focus only on white-collar careers. They ignore that women choosing to avoid careers like shipping or construction causes most of the gender discrepancy -- and they never protest that those fields are male-dominated."

LGBT Activists Claim 'Bi' Isn't Inclusive Enough, Must Be Replaced With 'Bi+' | Heat Street:
"A group of LGBT activists have decided that the term “Bi” (short for bisexual) is insufficiently inclusive, and are campaigning to have it replaced with “Bi+”.
They argue that the term, which traditionally refers to those attracted to both men and women, is incompatible with the huge array of available gender identities.
Delegates at an LGBT+ conference in London this month were told that the Bi label needed to expand to properly include those who are – for example – polysexual, pan-sexual or omni-romantic..."

Breathalyzer fraud allegations could derail Summit County DUI cases | SummitDaily.com:
"Dozens of local DUI cases could be derailed by revelations first reported by the Denver Post last week that annual certifications for breathalyzers statewide were being forged by state regulators.
Former employees of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment — the agency that inspects and certifies the Intoxilyzer 9000 machines used statewide — said that lab documents certifying that the blood alcohol content reading the machines produce is accurate still bear the signature of an employee who left the department in 2015.
Those certificates are the only proof during trials that the machines are accurate..."

"An Iranian facing the death penalty for insulting Islam was allegedly tricked into signing his own death warrant.
According to human rights activists, he was fooled into signing a confession in the belief that prosecutors would be released without punishment.
But, having signed the confession document, Iranian authorities allegedly went back on their promise – and Dehghan is now stuck on death row with little hope.
According to a press release by the Center for Human Rights in Iran (CHRI), his death penalty – punishment for “insulting the prophet” was confirmed in January.
