From Jenna Orkin In Major Shift, British Newspapers Begin Warning of Perils of Cashless Society After Global IT Outage Doctors warn of significant increase in people hospitalised with psychosis after being prescribed medicinal cannabis Audio experts Rob Maher of Montana State University and Steven Beck of Beck Audio Forensics told CBS News they identified 10 gunshots from the recordings of the event. The first eight rounds had similar acoustic characteristics and originated from the same location... CBS News analysis of social media footage showed that one of the rally attendees injured in the shooting, David Dutch, fell to the floor of the bleachers after the second gunshot was fired. Another injured attendee, James Copenhaver, fell to the ground as the fourth to eighth gunshot was fired. This indicates all eight shots were fired into the crowd. The floor of the Pacific Ocean’s Clarion-Clipperton Zone is littered with potato-size hunks of minerals called polymetallic nodules. The nodules look like chunks of charcoal and are rich in metals like cobalt and manganese. Researchers measured the electric charge on the surface of the nodules and found they carried nearly one volt (for comparison, a AA battery carries about 1.5 volts). The researchers hypothesize that this charge splits seawater to create oxygen, even 13,000 feet below the ocean’s surface–more than two miles deep.

The true potential of pot's therapeutic value remains underresearched, he says.

From Jenna Orkin Biden Tells Governors He Needs More Sleep and Less Work at Night The president’s opening remark to a group of key Democratic leaders — that he was in the race to stay — chilled any talk of his withdrawal, participants said. Ukraine and Georgia's NATO aspirations not only touch a raw nerve in Russia, they engender serious concerns about the consequences for stability in the region. Not only does Russia perceive encirclement, and efforts to undermine Russia's influence in the region, but it also fears unpredictable and uncontrolled consequences which would seriously affect Russian security interests. Experts tell us that Russia is particularly worried that the strong divisions in Ukraine over NATO membership, with much of the ethnic-Russian community against membership, could lead to a major split, involving violence or at worst, civil war. In that eventuality, Russia would have to decide whether to intervene; a decision Russia does not want to have to face.
