William Howard Taft (September 15, 1857 – March 8, 1930) was the 27th president of the United States (1909–1913) and the tenth chief justice of the United States (1921–1930), the only person to have held both offices. Taft was elected president in 1908, the chosen successor of Theodore Roosevelt, but was defeated for re-election by Woodrow Wilson in 1912 after Roosevelt split the Republican vote by running as a third-party candidate. In 1921, President Warren G.

www.cdc.gov Cover your mouth and nose with a cloth face cover when around others You could spread COVID-19 to others even if you do not feel sick. Everyone should wear a cloth face cover when they have to go out in public, for example to the grocery store or to pick up other necessities. Cloth face coverings should not be placed on young children under age 2, anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance. The cloth face cover is meant to protect other people in case you are infected. Do NOT use a facemask meant for a healthcare worker. Continue to keep about 6 feet between yourself and others. The cloth face cover is not a substitute for social distancing. Cover coughs and sneezes If you are in a private setting and do not have on your cloth face covering, remember to always cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze or use the inside of your elbow. Throw used tissues in the trash. Immediately wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not readily available, clean your hands with a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Clean and disinfect Clean AND disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily. This includes tables, doorknobs, light switches, countertops, handles, desks, phones, keyboards, toilets, faucets, and sinks. If surfaces are dirty, clean them. Use detergent or soap and water prior to disinfection. Then, use a household disinfectant. Most common EPA-registered household disinfectants will work. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The word "dinosaur" itself, coined in 1842 by paleontologist Richard Owen, comes from the Greek for "fearsome lizard". This view began to shift during the so-called dinosaur renaissance in scientific research in the late 1960s, and by the mid-1990s  significant evidence had emerged that dinosaurs were much more closely  related to birds, which descended directly from the theropod group of dinosaurs and are themselves a subgroup within the Dinosauria. The Rwandan genocide, also known as the genocide against the Tutsi, was a mass slaughter of Tutsi, Twa, and moderate Hutu in Rwanda, which took place between 7 April and 15 July 1994 during the Rwandan Civil War.  The militia murdered victims with machetes and rifles. An estimated 500,000 to 1,000,000 Rwandans were killed, about 70% of the country's Tutsi population. Sexual violence was rife, with an estimated 250,000 to 500,000 women raped during the genocide. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Fuel dumping (or a fuel jettison) is a procedure used by  aircraft in certain emergency situations before a return to the airport  shortly after takeoff, or before landing short of the intended  destination to reduce the aircraft's weight. The Salvadoran Civil War was a civil war in El Salvador fought between the military-led junta government of El Salvador and the Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN) (a coalition  or "umbrella organization" of left-wing groups) from 15 October 1979 to  16 January 1992. Corona viruses are named for the crown-like spikes on their surface.  There are four main sub-groupings of corona viruses, known as alpha,  beta, gamma, and delta. Human coronaviruses were first identified in the mid-1960s. The fiscal 2020 NDAA increases defense spending by about $20bn, or about  2.8%, and creates a Space Force as a new branch of the US military  dedicated to fighting international wars in space, both Trump priorities. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The cybersecurity company CrowdStrike, which has been at the center of  false conspiracy theories since 2016, is once again in focus after a White House transcript published revealed President Donald Trump brought it up in  his July call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Founded in 2011, CrowdStrike sells its "Falcon" cybersecurity software to big corporations and government  clients, including major global banks, healthcare and energy companies,  according to the company. Among its customers are Goldman Sachs, Amazon  Web Services, MIT and various US states and cities. CrowdStrike says  Falcon protects files saved in the Cloud. In a call with the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on July 25,  2019, President Donald Trump tied together the Ukraine's purchase of  Javelin missiles with an investigation into his political rivals. While  the true nature of this phone call has yet to be determined, the  effectiveness of the weapon is an absolute certainty.  The Javelin’s  features—and Russia’s tank armies—made it a very desirable weapon for  Ukraine, a country that is suffering an undeclared war with Russia from  2014 to the present day. In May 2018 Ukraine purchased 210 Javelin missiles and 37 launchers from the United States for an estimated $47 million. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

The history of basketball began with its invention in 1891 in Springfield, Massachusetts by  Canadian physical education instructor James Naismith as a less  injury-prone sport than football. Naismith was a 31-year old graduate  student when he created the indoor sport to keep athletes indoors during  the winters. The Lega Basket Serie A, officially abbreviated as LBA, is a  professional men's club basketball league that has been organized in  Italy since 1920. It constitutes the first and highest-tier level of the  Italian league pyramid. The NBA began life as  the Basketball Association of America in 1946 and played under that moniker for 3 years before, in 1949, merging with the National  Basketball League and changing names to the NBA. The BAA started out with 11 teams in 1946 but lost four of them before the start of the next season. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

A coup on October 15, 1979,  was followed by killings of anti-coup protesters by the government and  of anti-disorder protesters by the guerrillas, and is widely seen as the  start of civil war. The fully-fledged civil war lasted for more than 12 years and  included the deliberate terrorizing and targeting of civilians by  US-trained government death squads including prominent clergy from the Catholic Church, the recruitment of child soldiers and other human rights violations, mostly by the military. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Mesoamerican civilization, The complex of indigenous cultures that developed in parts of Mexico and Central America prior to Spanish exploration and conquest in the 16th century.
