more *professional unbiased journalism* designed solely for the purpose of disparaging anything and everything denoting liberal or progressive from the creator and publisher of ....."TheRebel"... Mr. Ezra Levant... an interesting man sometimes referred to as the Canadian Rush Limbaugh... Considering that Canada is a Socialist country and the right wing populist movement is growing world wide; referring to him as as another Rush Limbaugh may actually be a compliment and increase his popularity. Conservative Canada may express their gratitude for the name dropping. Just a heads up. |

Hawaii: Winter Snow Warning

So it snows where the elevation is very high. Is there anything else obvious that someone wants to report? Considering that this has only been happening, to this extent (24-36 inches), in the last few years - (and now there may be greater accumulation), then yes.... some whould say, 'The planetary changes are news' |

I think you are giving too much attention to a small group. Claiming that ALL "progressives" oppose this, is nonsense. Why are you trying to help opponents exaggerate their numbers? Who you talking to? I didn't write the article. I didn't say "all progressives" |

Donald Trump In New York: Mayor Bill De Blasio Requests $35 Million From Federal Government For Police Costs
http://www.ibtimes.com/donald-trump-new-york-mayor-bill-de-blasio-requests-35-million-federal-government-2455203/ Video Heavily armed New York City Police officers patrol inside Trump Tower, New York, Dec. 4, 2016 ----------------- De Blasio billing White House $35M to cover Trump Tower security - http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/de-blasio-billing-white-house-35m-cover-trump-tower-security-article-1.2899138/ Mayor de Blasio is sending the Obama administration a $35 million bill for the cost of securing Trump Tower from the time President-elect Donald Trump won the race through Jan. 20 — an average of over $400,000 a day, officials said on Monday. De Blasio, in a press conference with Police Commissioner James O'Neill, said that he is sending a letter to President Obama laying out the costs. He also said he called Trump’s pick for Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin to talk about security reimbursement costs after Trump takes office. "We had a good conversation," said de Blasio. [Feds should pay to protect Trump Tower: Council speaker] He added, "He's a native New Yorker, so I think that is a helpful reality." The $35 million bill, which covers Nov. 8 through Jan. 20, covers pretty much all of the reimbursement costs. De Blasio has repeatedly said he expects the city to be paid back for the huge costs of providing security for the new First Family. But as the Daily News reported on Sunday, some municipalities in other parts of the country have struggled to be reimbursed, and found the cost of monitoring a hometown president a huge drain on the budget. Trump is priciest President-elect to protect at up to $1M a day De Blasio has repeatedly said he expects the city to be paid back for the huge costs of providing security for the new First Family. De Blasio's comments come shortly after a half-dozen New York City congressmen sent a letter to him and Gov. Andrew Cuomo saying they should refuse to pay to help Trump keep his family in Trump Tower while he's president, citing both the big price tag for the protection and the traffic jams it's creating in Midtown. "Municipal or state resources should not be subsidizing the President-Elect's decision to maintain multiple permanent residences," the letter reads. "For all these reasons, we respectfully request that New York City and the state refuse to pay additional security costs associated with maintaining a second residence at Trump Tower once the President-Elect is inaugurated. Should the President-Elect choose to maintain two permanent residences for his family, it is reasonable to request he reimburse the city and the state for all additional security expenses from his own significant personal financial resources." The letter, spearheaded by Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-Brooklyn), was signed by Reps. Jerry Nadler (D-Manhattan), Grace Meng (D-Queens), Hakeem Jeffries (D-Brooklyn), Jose Serrano (D-Bronx) and Yvette Clarke (D-Brooklyn). Velasquez said, "The simplest solution would be for the First Family to relocate to Washington, D.C. rather than maintaining a second, full-time residence. City taxpayers shouldn't be paying these costs and it seems reasonable to ask President-elect Trump to chip in or foot the bill." O'Neill said that post-inauguration costs for Trump's family haven't been worked out yet with the Secret Service. Trump's wife Melania and son Barron plan to continue to live in Manhattan so he can finish his school year. |

Hawaii: Sand, surf and snow
http://wgno.com/2016/12/05/hawaii-sand-surf-and-snow/ HAWAII (CNN) – Hawaiians more used to dusting sand than ice from their feet have been warned that a winter storm may bring heavy snow to Big Island peaks overnight. Up to six inches of snow is expected to fall, the National Weather Service says, with a winter storm warning in place until 6 a.m. local time Monday (11 a.m. ET). The NWS is forecasting heavy snow, blowing and drifting snow, strong winds gusting up to 55 mph and low visibility for the summits of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea. The conditions will make driving and hiking very dangerous, the NWS warned, with the combination of strong winds and heavy snow making travel potentially “very hazardous or impossible.” CNN meteorologist Michael Guy says it isn’t unusual for the Big Island summits to experience snowfall in the winter months. “It usually can snow at elevations above 9,000 feet and some of the summits reach above 13,000 feet. “There have actually been blizzard warnings for those areas that get snow at those elevations before,” Guy says. The variation in the island’s elevation allows for colder temperatures at higher altitudes — which can support winter weather precipitation, he says. Snow also fell on the summits late last week, with photos showing the summit of Mauna Kea cloaked in white Thursday. Further snow showers are predicted from Wednesday. Hawaii expected to get 3 feet of snow. You read that right. Hawaii Mauna Loa on the Big Island has gotten two feet of snow since Thursday. usatoday.com |

IMO, it is a prissy looking car.
They have no idea what militarized is. IDK, I think SJWs world wide, need to find a job or some REAL volunteer work or some elders, or children, or animals, to take care... something, anything, to keep them in the reality. And let the functioning, taxpaying, elements of society ,focus on the REAL issues of the WORLD. |

Toronto’s dark-grey “militaristic” police cruisers “trigger” progressives
http://www.therebel.media/toronto_s_dark_grey_militaristic_police_cruisers_trigger_progressives/ Toronto’s new “militaristic” police cruisers “trigger” progressives The Toronto Police Service recently rolled out a new colour scheme for their cruisers, and as a result, we can add another item to the list of things that “trigger” progressives. We know about team nicknames, free speech that conflicts with their beliefs, and Halloween costumes that appropriate another’s culture so let's add the paint scheme of a car to the list of things that trigger social justice warriors. I think the new dark-grey cruisers look superb having never been a fan of the red, white, and blue Toronto cruisers or the bright yellow ones before that. With the new dark-grey paint job, the cruisers look like they mean business and isn’t that how you want a police cruiser to look? Yet, the progressives find this colour scheme “offensive”. According to a graphic designer quoted in a Toronto Star article, these designs convey “oppressive, aggressive, intimidating and combative traits”, and appear to be influenced by films such as Robocop and Batman. We’re told that the militaristic influence of the paint-scheme is undeniable, and “It’s a disturbing trend to say the least.” Who knew? A Ford Taurus in dark-grey is “disturbing.” Toronto’s progressive City Council were upset with Police Chief Mark Saunders for having the audacity to make an independent decision about the colour change and have asked TPSB to keep the red, white and blue colour scheme pending further review. And so, sensitive Torontonians won’t have to worry about seeing any more dark-grey “militaristic” cruisers prowling around the mean streets of Hogtown with Officer Robocop behind the wheel. - Pic of car and video on link "Toronto police cruiser colour change “triggers” SJWs http://youtu.be/Do6ioqA-Dy0/ 3:59 |

I am sure the man has his reasons for resigning and giving short notice. Including his family, as he (emotionally) stated.
Right now.. I am just amused at how often the MSM is using the word "SURPRISED", as if they believe that they if keep saying it, that the public would be surprised also. Waiting for the day when they stop saying, "WORLD LEADER ", and call them what they are supposed to be, " ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES " Those John and Jackie dynasty days and media royalty are OVER. The MSM has some catching up to do. |

Calling PizzaGate fake news is fake news.
There is more than enough out there to prove it and prosecute. (If that ever happens). Fox runs fake news, just like everyone else. Authorities and so called elitists lie, and cover things up, just like anyone else. There are conspiracies to counter conspiracies, and calling PizzaGate a conspiracy theory is one of them. Some people don't want to believe or even hear that such evil exists. Well it DOES. We are not living in a spiritual realm, that names evil and castes it out, and seeks justice for children. (I wish). We just ... go through the motions, pretending we are. |

New Zealand Prime Minister John Key in surprise resignation -
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-38204424/ Video John Key has announced that he will resign as prime minister of New Zealand, after eight years in the job, citing family reasons. Calling it "the hardest decision I've ever made," an emotional Mr Key said: "I don't know what I'll do next." Mr Key, a popular leader, said it was a personal decision, and later denied media reports his wife of 32 years, Bronagh, had given him an ultimatum. He said he would not be seeking a fourth term in the 2017 election. Deputy Prime Minister Bill English is likely to take over until the National party holds a caucus to choose a new leader. Mr Key made the surprise announcement during his weekly press conference. He set a date of 12 December for the formal resignation. He said his job required great sacrifices "from those who are dearest to me" and that his children had coped with "an extraordinary level of intrusion". "All I can say is that I gave it everything I had. I have left nothing in the tank." Referring to his wife, he told radio program Newstalk: "We talked about it and she likes the concept of me being home more but there was no ultimatum." Mr Key, who was formerly at Merrill Lynch as a foreign exchange dealer, ended nine years of Labour Party rule in 2008 when he ousted Helen Clark as prime minister. He won a third term for the National Party at elections in September 2014. Image copyright Reuters Image caption Mr Key has sought closer ties with the US Opposition Labour leader Andrew Little said Mr Key "has served New Zealand generously and with dedication. I wish him and his family the best for the future". Green Party co-leader Meteria Turei also wished him well. "I fought every day against John's politics but always supported his right to be a dad and a husband first," she tweeted. Known by the local media as "Teflon John" because very little controversy has stuck to him during his time in office, Mr Key is credited with steering New Zealand through the 2008 global economic crisis and out of recession. He has sought to build closer ties with the US, taking a leading role in supporting President Barack Obama's Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) - a 12 country trade deal covering 40% of the world economy. However Donald Trump's recent victory in the US has derailed that process, with his announcement the US would be quitting the TPP on his first day in office in January. Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, a close political ally, said that on learning of Mr Key's resignation, he sent him a text message reading "say it ain't so, bro". Mr Turnbull said New Zealand had boxed above its weight under Mr Key's leadership, and his departure will be "a great loss to New Zealand and a great loss to the world". Former Australian prime minister Tony Abbott played on their two countries' cricketing rivalry to say Mr Key had enjoyed a "fine innings". "Not many pollies retire unbeaten on a double ton," he tweeted. Australian Opposition Leader Bill Shorten said: "John Key has been a good friend to Australia. I wish him and his family all the best."

As for the fact that most Americans can't do this, being a modern education failure, I disagree strenuously. That accusation is based on a FALSE fantasy about past education, and on mostly politically motivated, and financially self-blinding negative assumptions being made about schools, and about other Americans in general.
Our ranking is now about 30th in the world. That is not a fantasy. That is a sad reality from ideologies like Common Core, diversity and equality. (Which removed competition). 'The dumbing down of America' _____ I know it because I personally WORKED ON LEARNING IT ON MY OWN TIME. Congrats. All adults should. Especially in topics that interest them. _______ One more thing... here is a link to a related "game," that is NOT infested with click-bait nonsense People have to teach themselves to lighten up a little, criticize less, not over analyze everything, and enjoy simple things.

I went for a walk today, along the usual scenic routes and beautiful rivers by my side. But there was one issue with it all, thinking! The mind was churning over whether to take thinking option a, b or c as usual and how the whole conundrum was making me feel ill and dividing me against myself. Then it dawned on me. If a man is faced with three paths, can he divide himself into three and travel down all three paths at once. I don't think so, he can only physically travel down any one path at a time. I might entertain three or four levels of thinking, but in the end I would only be inclined to pursue in action one of them.
