Update on the Obesity Epidemic – Science-Based Medicine
The obesity epidemic continues relentlessly across the globe, despite the increasing attention being paid to it. The latest CDC statistics (as of 2016) show that 39.6% of adult Americans are obese, with every state having a rate >20%. This is an increase from 2011 – 34.9%. In fact, the trend has accelerated. The same is true world-wide. As of 2016 there were 650 million obese adults worldwide. This is no longer a problem of just industrialized nations, and obesity can occur alongside malnutrition. The figures have tripled since 1975.
Terror watchlist violates constitutional rights
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — The government's watchlist of more than 1 million people identified as "known or suspected terrorists" violates the constitutional rights of those placed on it, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.
The ruling from U.S. District Judge Anthony Trenga grants summary judgment to nearly two dozen Muslim U.S. citizens who had challenged the watchlist with the help of a Muslim civil-rights group, the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Sounds an awful lot like Red Flag laws.

Warren County makes deal to open fire tower trail | News, Sports, Jobs – Adirondack Daily Enterprise
Warren County leaders hope to allow public access to the Swede Mountain fire tower, which is on land that Warren County owns off Route 8 in Hague, just east of the Horicon town line. But the county’s property is surrounded by forestland owned by Lyme Adirondack Timberlands, which has asked for compensation to allow access to the property.
That price tag would have been $3,000 a year, paid through the county’s bed tax on hotel, motel and bed-and-breakfast rooms. But some supervisors took issue with the price last month and tabled a vote on the contract to seek a better deal.
Warren County Administrator Ryan Moore went back to Lyme, which agreed to cut the price to $2,500 per year for five years.
