A prominent Ugandan opposition politician was kidnapped during a book launch in Kenya over the weekend, transferred to Uganda and is being held at a military jail in Kampala, his wife said on Wednesday.

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni's government has been accused of repeated human rights abuses against opposition leaders and supporters, including illegal detentions, torture and extra-judicial killings.

 

“Centrosaurus was only definitely known from sites of similar age in Alberta," said Demers-Potvin. "Now we report fossils that unequivocally belong to this species from Saskatchewan for the first time. It was always very likely to be found nearby, but the presence of Citipes elegans, a small, parrot-beaked dinosaur, was more unexpected."

The discovery of Citipes elegans, previously only known from Alberta, is the first of its kind in Saskatchewan and points to a broader diversity of small dinosaur species in the region.

Your comment history is exactly what I expected it to be. Shoo.

Unfortunately, Republicans have spent decades systematically destroying public education in this country, and this is the end result. When Trump said "I love the poorly educated" back in 2016 he wasn't really saying anything new or breaking from the mainstream GOP stance... He was just honest about it, unlike the rest of the GOP who have always described their supporters with cynical euphemisms like "salt of the earth" and "regular folk" when they really mean ignorant rubes.

It should, but frankly, I've given up believing that people can be trusted to rise to the occasion and do the right thing.

from the 2000s when he was doing Fear Factor/NewsRadio.

Fun fact, Ray Romano (of 'Everybody Loves Raymond' fame) was originally cast as the station's handyman on NewsRadio but was let go before the pilot because producers felt his comedic timing wasn't quick enough to keep up with the rest of the cast. When Joe Rogan was hired to replace him they retooled the character based on his standup routine from the time... Which was basically just ranting about drugs and conspiracy theories on stage.

That's the only reason the Joe Garrelli character was a conspiracy theorist. So when people tell you "Joe Rogan used to be reasonable" they don't know what they're talking about. He was barely acting on that show. He's always been a contrarian meathead conspiracy theorist.

Just wait until you see what Trump does for Palestine, boy are you in for a rude awakening. Congrats on sticking it to the democrats, I guess. Enjoy the next four years.
