How much effort do you put into the appearance of your eyebrows? Tinting? Threading? Pencilling in? Plucking the strays? Or perhaps nothing at all?
Well if you’re an A-lister with the eyes of the world watching, it seems no length is too extreme to ensure your brows are perfect.
Australian eyebrow-artist to the stars Sharon-Lee Hamilton was flown from Sydney to Los Angeles to tend to a select few celebrities’ brows before the 2017 Oscars.
Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire are reportedly two members of the Hollywood elite who insisted on Hamilton flying the 7,500 across the Pacific Ocean, despite DiCaprio’s environmental stance.
Since NBC News decided to trot out it’s predictably gross “How Crickets Could Help Save the Planet” to commemorate Al Gore’s newest inconvenient movie release and Donald Trump’s ‘Climate Denier’, oil-guy EPA appointment, it time to reprise our little story on crickets. First NBC.
Unless we all stick to salads, the global production of meat will need to double in that time to feed our growing population, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of United Nations (FAO). Feed and crop production will also have to increase in kind to support livestock and our own appetites, inevitably taking up more land space and water — precious and dwindling commodities required for cattle.
Forget that turkey. Or dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy and cranberries. Belly up to the cricket buffet. Eat your fill and feel good about exterminating hunger for the next generation.
The storm will affect heavily traveled stretches of Interstate 68, I-70, I-76, I-78, I-80, I-81, I-83, I-84, I-87, I-90 and I-95.
For you swimmers, expect frozen hair and frost accumulations of up to 3/4 of an inch.
Major travel delays and disruptions to daily activities are likely from accumulations ranging from a slushy coating to as much as 12 inches. The snow could fall at the rate of 2 inches per hour. Thunder and lightning can accompany the snow in some locations. Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, had thundersnow early Thursday morning.
**Possible FakeNewsAlert – Do not make your swimming plans based on what you read here.
After a month of huge blizzards and “atmospheric river” storms, the Sierra Nevada snowpack — source of a third of California’s drinking water — is 177 percent of the historic average, the biggest in more than two decades.
Gov. Jerry, “Moonbeam“, Brown is calling for all travelers in the Sierra Nevada’s, especially around the Donner Pass area, to carry at least 3 months worth of supplies because, “You remember how hungry those Donner Party folks got during the winter of ’46-’47.”
Two events last week brought yet further twists to one of the longest-running farces of our modern world. One was the revelation by the European Space Agency that in 2013 and 2014, after years when the volume of Arctic ice had been diminishing, it increased again by as much as 33 per cent. The other was that Canadian scientists studying the effect of climate change on Arctic ice from an icebreaker had to suspend their research, when their vessel was called to the aid of other ships trapped in the thickest summer ice seen in Hudson Bay for 20 years.
Frigid air will grip an unusually large portion of the Lower 48 states in just over a week’s time. The cold is predicted to consume almost the entire nation, from the Pacific Northwest to the Southeast, sparing only Florida.
While some parts of the country are forecast to experience temperatures 30 to 50 degrees colder than normal, the cold snap will be most remarkable for the amount of real estate it is predicted to cover.
Brian Brettschneider, a climatologist based in Alaska, noted Thursday that the National Weather Service’s six- to 10-day temperature outlook (below) projected the nation’s largest area with high confidence (90 percent probability) of below-normal temperatures in 15 years of issuing such outlooks.
Even the Government knows that ‘wind turbines’ are death on birds, but now Santa? Evidence shows that we can officially say that AGW-Climate Change-Global Warming (AKA: Weather) is responsible for all Christmas present delays. So FedEx and UPS, you’re off the hook. Merry Christmas to you.
With overnight temperatures dropping well below zero, the National Weather
Service has issued a wind chill advisory for Wednesday night through Thursday morning.
The advisory is in effect from 9 p.m. Wednesday until 10 a.m. Thursday. The weather service said wind chills could reach minus 30 in some areas. It warned people could suffer frostbite in as little as 30 minutes.
One happy corollary, the sub-freezing temperatures slow Chiraq’s murder rate down a bit. Once the sun comes out, and things warm up again…maybe not so much.

Well, I guess the whole ‘effing AGW-Climate Change-Global Warming (AKA: Weather) thing isn’t as important as Leonardo DiCaprio’s Oscar eyebrows. This hypocritical bit of vanity is from the Independent, “Leonardo DiCaprio flew eyebrow artist 7,500 miles to do his brows for the Oscars“. Add those 5 tons of CO2 to the wacky-weed in your pipe and puff away, Leo.
