U.S. fighter jets strike Iran-linked sites in Syria in retaliation for attacks on U.S. troops

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:30:39 GMT

U.S. fighter jets launched airstrikes early Friday on two locations in eastern Syria linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps, the Pentagon said, in retaliation for a slew of drone and missile attacks against U.S. bases and personnel in the region that began early last week. The U.S. strikes reflect the Biden administration's determination to maintain a delicate balance. The U.S. wants to hit Iranian-backed groups suspected of targeting the U.S. as strongly as possible to deter future aggression, possibly fueled by Israel's war against Hamas, while also working to avoid inflaming the region and provoking a wider conflict.According to a senior U.S. military official, the precision strikes were carried out near Boukamal by two F-16 fighter jets, and they struck weapons and ammunition storage areas that were connected to the IRGC. The official said there had been Iranian-aligned militia and IRGC personnel on the base and no civilians, but the U.S. does not have any information yet on...

From delta 8 THC to delta-O, there are an abundance of new compounds in the spotlight. All of these new cannabinoids invite potential accompanied by questions. One compound circulating more questions and confusion than the rest is HHC.Is it legal? How does it affect the body? Is it naturally occurring in the cannabis plant? Let’s make sense of HHC with a basic breakdown of the major things to know.Where Does HHC Come From?HHC was first made by American chemist Roger Adams in 1944. By adding hydrogen molecules to delta 9 THC, Rogers created HHC through a process known as hydrogenation. This process converts traditional delta 9 THC to hexahydrocannabinol, or HHC.Though Rogers created HHC with cannabis-derived THC, these days the compound is most often made through a process that begins with hemp plants, the lower THC-containing plant made federally legal throu...

Truth Club Digs into Devisa: Travis Harrington of Truth Club told us about his Mal Devisa experience.Travis Harrington: When Truth Club was at SXSW earlier this year I went and saw Mal Devisa play the audiofemme showcase in a great big church.I rushed over in between our load-in and performance a few blocks away, hoping to catch just a couple of songs. I was pretty exhausted and very stressed thinking about the coming days of running around, but as soon as she started “Sea of Limbs” those preoccupations fell silent.I sat motionless, tracing the vocal crescendos scattered throughout the high arches, and felt those vibrations pass through me too. I was just another point of interpolation against them, a raw recipient of the emotional outpour. I had tears streaming down my face.It takes something powerful to break you down like that amid all of the constructs that make up who you are, to make you forget that you are living and instead, for a brief moment, feel as if you are the song.Tr...

From the Bay Area to Australia, abandoned golf courses are being reclaimed by nature

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:30:39 GMT

By Nell Lewis | CNNGolf courses, despite occupying large green spaces, are not necessarily good for the environment. Land is often cleared to make way for a fairway and maintaining the pristine turf often requires a lot of water, regular mowing and the spraying of fertilizers and pesticides – none of which is good for biodiversity.In the US, with the number of course closures outweighing new openings every year since 2006, some are questioning how we should use these huge spaces – and asking whether, instead of golf, nature should be left to run its course.Conservation nonprofits and local authorities are looking to acquire golf courses that have been abandoned due to high maintenance costs, low player numbers or other reasons, and repurpose them into landscapes that boost biodiversity and build natural defenses against climate change.These spaces provide “huge opportunities from a conservation perspective,” says Guillermo Rodriguez, California state director of The Trust for Public...
