NASA's Juno spacecraft captured a storm the size of Texas swirling near Jupiter's south pole. The newfound 'maelstrom' joins a family of six other raging cyclones that 'are a new weather phenomena'. The craft spotted the storm during its 22nd flyby of the planet while soaring only 2,175 miles above thick layer of clouds. Juno made the discovered on November 3, which also 'marked a victory for the mission.' Scroll down for video  With each flyby, the data reinforced the idea that five windstorms were swirling in a pentagonal pattern around a central storm at the south pole and that the system seemed stable. None of the six storms showed signs of yielding to allow other cyclones to join in. Then on the next flyby, a new storm had joined the gang Scott Bolton, Juno principal investigator from the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, said: 'The combination of creativity and analytical thinking has once again paid off big time for NASA.' 'We realized that the orbit was going … [Read more...] about NASA probe spots massive storm the size of Texas swirling near Jupiter’s south pole that joins a family of six other cyclones in the region

Here's What We Know: At least two people died Saturday after Hurricane Harvey slammed into and drenched the Texas coast — one death was in Rockport and the other in Houston. The person in Houston was found dead in her car after her vehicle was overcome by flood waters, officials told BuzzFeed News. Up to 14 other people were injured in Rockport.

The Associated Press reports that 17,000 Brazilian migrants entered the United States through the city of El Paso during Fiscal Year 2019. Approximately 18,000 crossed into the U.S. along the entire southwest border with Mexico — a 600 percent increase over the previous high during FY2016.“The quiet migration of around 17,000 Brazilians through a single U.S. city in the past year reveals a new frontier in the Trump administration’s effort to shut down the legal immigration pathway for people claiming fear of persecution,” the AP reported. “Brazilian families are not held indefinitely in detention but instead released to Annunciation House, a network of shelters, where they can stay for a few days while they arrange flights to other cities in the U.S.” The apprehension of about 17,000 Brazilian migrants accounts for just over nine percent of the 182,143 total migrants apprehended by Border Patrol agents during the fiscal year that ended on September … [Read more...] about REPORT: 17,000 Brazilian Migrants Cross Border in Single Texas City in FY2019

Nothing really puts you in your place quite like getting shot at in another country. All gringo arrogance vaporized in an instant. Choking from teargas. Lungs aflame. Reeling blind through unknown streets just ahead of the death squads. Abandoned by your fellow correspondents, who were all shrewd enough to have put on their gas masks and taken cover before the soldiers launched shock grenades and opened fire on the crowd. Yes, whenever a quick and brutal dose of humility is called for I can always flash back to the Honduran capital of Tegucigalpa in the summer of 2009, during the U.S.-backed military coup against elected president Manuel “Mel” Zelaya. A swift recall of live rounds slamming into unarmed demonstrators—of my own self at the mercy of those sadistic soldados—and all false pride just fades away. The crowds had come in their thousands and their tens of thousands to protest the army’s kidnapping of old Mel, who was as famous for his cheesy … [Read more...] about Inside Trump’s Disastrous ‘Secret’ Drug War Plans for Central America

After Tate Martell headed south to Miami earlier this month, Ohio State, given a degree of uncertainty over whether its prime offseason pickup will be granted immediate eligibility, is in the market for experience at the quarterback position.  Depending on how things play out in the coming days and weeks, a recent departure from College Station could end up filling that need in Columbus. Earlier this week, Nick Starkel announced that he has decided to transfer from Texas A&M and continue his collegiate playing career elsewhere.  Wednesday, it was reported that OSU is among the potential landing spots for the redshirt sophomore quarterback who, interestingly enough, once had a Twitter beef with the player he’d be replacing with the Buckeyes. Additionally, Duke (looking to replace early departure Daniel Jones), Arizona (head coach Kevin Sumlin signed Starkel at A&M) and SMU (approximately 40 miles from where he went to high school) are all possibilities according … [Read more...] about Ohio State, Arizona among potential landing spots for Texas A&M transfer QB Nick Starkel
