Goodell Calls meeting on 'take a knee' controversy.

“We need to move past this controversy, and we want to do that together with our players,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell wrote in a memo to team owners.

"Current" policy calls for players to stand for the anthem and face the flag, but no player has been disciplined for a protest.

So why the need for a memo and up coming meeting on the "take a knee" problem?
The NFL could have avoided all of this by simply enforcing the rules over a year ago. But no, the PC culture has so scrambled the minds of the NFL that a rational decision on a rules violation is not possible.

The NFL is on the brink of a financial disaster with their compliancy with the "take a knee" protest. It's their show, what does or does not happen is on their brand. Mr Goodell's statement "we need to move past this controversy" Is nothing more than a hope that this all just disappears, people quit caring, anything but enforce the NFL rules. What's next Mr. Goodell? What PC demand will you (the NFL) "Take a Knee" for next? Only time will tell.

One prediction before I go.

This meeting Goodell has called will stop the "Take a knee" Protest. Only to replace it with a 30 second spot placed in a prime advertising slot of TV commercial time on every game this season. Featuring NFL player's on "social injustice" and how your are to blame.

Effectsof climate change on coffee Production.

Effects of Climate Change on Coffee Production Reduced crop yields are a result of drought in some regions and increased humidity and precipitation in others. For example, increase moisture leads to the proliferation of pests like the Coffee Berry Borer and diseases including ‘la rosa’ or stem rust. Coffee rust hit central American coffee production in 2012-13. As a result, prices for consumers in the U.S. jumped about 33% from 2011 – 2013. Coffee production is dependent on predictable cycles of rainfall, dry periods and temperature changes. Coffee typically flowers when there’s a dry period followed by significant rainfall. Generally, a dry period of three months is necessary to stress the coffee plant and produce flowers. However, a shorter dry period and extended rainfall can result in reduced flowers. Fluctuations in weather patterns such as precipitation, temperature, storms, strong winds, and other extreme weather patterns can negatively affect the quality and production l

Obama Takes a parting shot at Israel.

Trump takes a call from Taiwan and the diprotic word has a collective stroke. Obama uses a UN vote to kick Israel one last time. The diplomats stand silent or cheer. The decision to abstain from the council's 14-0 vote is one of the biggest American rebukes of its longstanding ally in recent memory. And it could have significant ramifications for the Jewish state, potentially hindering Israel's negotiating position in future peace talks. Given the world's widespread opposition to settlements, the action will be almost impossible for anyone, including Trump, to reverse. Netanyahu's office said; "Israel rejects this shameful anti-Israel resolution at the U.N. and will not abide by its terms," and adding "protect Israel against this gang-up at the UN" in addition to "Israel looks forward to working with President-elect Trump and with all our friends in Congress, Republicans and Democrats alike, to negate the harmful effects of th
