An French prosecutor has dropped hate crime charges against the killer of Jewish kindergarten teacher Sarah Halimi after experts ruled he had suffered a massive psychotic episode by smoking cannabis. Complete and utter madness. Outrageous. Witnesses said the 65-year-old was beaten and called a "demon" by her attacker, who recited Koranic verses as he threw her off her balcony. And if marijuana causes such psychosis, why legalize it?

Ex-Polish President Who Serves On Burisma Board Suggests Hunter Biden Never Said Anything About His Father | Former Polish President Aleksander Kwasniewski, who serves on the board of Burisma Holdings, the largest Ukrainian private natural gas company, this week defended former Vice President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden. He said Hunter Biden never used his father's name to get ahead while serving on the board with him. In an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday, Kwasniewski admitted that Biden was chosen to join the board because of his last name, but went on to explain that is how the business world works. "I understand that if someone asks me to be part of some project it's not only because I'm so good, it's also because I am Kwasniewski and I am a former president of Poland," he said. "And this is all inter-connected. No-names are a nobody. Being Biden is not bad. It's a good name." Kwasniewski then defended Biden by noting that he never used his father's name to get ahead on the advisory board, nor did any members ask him to use his connections with the Obama administration to curry favors for them. "He was a normal member of this group," he said. "We didn't ask him—and he never said anything—about his father."

Two explosions forced tens of thousands of people to leave the area around a chemical plant. “As long as we know that we’re O.K., that’s all that really matters,” one resident said. | The explosions have unsettled a community enmeshed with the oil refineries and chemical plants that surround it, one accustomed to a skyline of galvanized pipes and flare stacks. The plant, still gushing a plume of ominous black smoke visible from many miles away on Thursday, is right in the middle of a bustling community. Parks with playgrounds, a high school and a middle school, blocks of homes, fast-foot joints, churches and a grocery store are all within a couple of miles. | The Port Neches plant, which produces a chemical compound that is an ingredient in synthetic rubber for tires and automobile hoses, has a history of violations and fines that stretches back more than a decade. In 2014, the plant’s owner, TPC Group, was fined $45,750 by state regulators for exceeding “the volatile organic compounds annual emissions rate” by letting off too much carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides during the previous two years, according to records from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. In January of this year, the company was fined $214,388 for air quality violations “stemming from its failure to comply with allowable emissions limits,” according to a statement from environmental officials. The facility’s history of violations were reported by The Texas Tribune. | The explosions in Port Neches follow two fires near Houston at petrochemical facilities, including one that killed one person and critically injured two others. The blasts also come just after federal environmental officials eased rules enacted after a deadly explosion at a fertilizer plant in West, Texas, in 2013, which was one of the state’s worst industrial disasters.

Crews are battling a fire at the African Safari Wildlife Park in northern Ohio where there are unconfirmed reports that animals were inside the building that has gone up in flames. | The news station is reporting that police armed with assault-like guns were positioned to shoot in case animals run away. | Sad news to report this Thanksgiving. According to the African Safari Wildlife Park Facebook page, some animals did die in the barn fire. The park will be closed tomorrow to mourn their loss. No people were hurt. Investigation into a cause is ongoing.

Who knew out of Dak and Trubisky today Trubisky would be the way better QB? Can we get a cut-away blimp-shot of the Dallas fans pouring out of AT&T with 11 minutes to go?

The AFC East has gone 10-4 against the NFC East this season.

Ezekiel Elliott (who should be in prison.....) has had fewer than 100 rush yards in 4 straight games. The last time Elliott had fewer than 100 rush yards in 4+ consecutive games within a season was in 2013 when he was a true freshman at Ohio State. Carlos Hyde was the Buckeyes starting RB.”
