Nate Lynn reports:

The release said this is the first HPAI detection in a Colorado dairy since August 2024. Since the initial detection of HPAI in dairy cattle in April 2024, the release said, Colorado has implemented routine bulk milk tank surveillance testing to ensure Colorado's milk supply is not impacted. 

“This detection underscores the importance of our routine bulk milk tank testing to keep our herds healthy and our food supply secure,” said Colorado State Veterinarian Dr. Maggie Baldwin in the release. “Colorado has taken a proactive approach to monitoring and responding to avian influenza, ensuring that early detection leads to swift mitigation measures to protect consumers and our food supply.”

Screwworm moves into Arizona

 

Screengrab and headline:  ABC News, 10/28/2026

Youri Benadjaoud and Mary Kekatos report:

This is the third state in the U.S. to report an animal case of the flesh-eating parasite. Previously, only Texas and New Mexico had reported infections among animals, according to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Officials note that the risk to public health is low. 

No human cases have been reported this year. Last year, a Maryland resident who recently returned from travel to El Salvador was found to be infected with NWS, a Department of Health and Human Services spokesperson told ABC News at the time. 

The Arizona Department of Agriculture (AZDA) said on Wednesday that the case was identified in a canine in Cochise County, located in southeast Arizona on the border with Mexico.

Hot enough for ya? Planet Earth now on broil!

Headline:  Science Daily, 10/29/2026

Global warming has accelerated sharply over the past decade, with Earth heating up faster than at any point since modern temperature records began in 1880. A new study from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) provides the first statistically significant evidence that the pace of global warming has increased since around 2015, even after accounting for natural factors that temporarily raise or lower global temperatures. 

Researchers found that the planet has warmed at a rate of approximately 0.35°C per decade over the past 10 years, although the exact figure varies depending on the temperature dataset used. That is nearly twice the average rate of just under 0.2°C per decade recorded between 1970 and 2015. The findings suggest that global temperatures are not simply continuing to rise. The rate at which they are increasing has also become substantially faster. [emphasis added]

Graph and headline:  Oklahoma Farm Report, 10/29/2026

While long-range climate models hint at potential polar vortex disruptions and sudden stratospheric warming far to the north, Oklahoma State Climatologist Gary McManus notes that 2026 is leaving no doubt about where it stands in the state’s historical climate record books. According to McManus, Oklahoma is not simply contending for the all-time warmest year on record—it is on pace to completely dismantle the previous benchmark set in 2012. 

The climatological data reveals an astonishing run of persistent heat. From January through September, Oklahoma’s statewide average temperature reached 68.6°F, running 5 degrees above normal and a full 1.5 degrees warmer than the previous record pace established during 2012. McManus points out that October has only accelerated the trend, running roughly 6.1 degrees above average. That trajectory places the statewide January-through-October average around 68.4°F, easily overtaking 2012’s mark of 66.3°F.  [emphasis added]

Yet another headline that pairs job loss with artificial intelligence: Congress pokes the issue

 

Top headline:  TUM Partners of Excellence, 12/5/2024

AI-generated image requested from Manus 1.6 Lite

Bottom headline:   New York Times,  10/23/2026

Tony Romm reports:

The rapid rise of artificial intelligence has stoked fears that powerful computers might someday replace humans, leaving millions of Americans out of work and without a steady income. 

It’s a doomsday scenario, one that could potentially overwhelm the government’s ability to care for the swelling ranks of the unemployed. And the mere risk has caught the attention of Congress, where lawmakers are starting to explore ways to bolster the nation’s economic safety net before it is too late. 

In recent months, Democrats and Republicans have unfurled a series of bills that aim to offset the potential job losses posed by the advent of A.I. The ideas may differ in scope and cost, but together they reflect a widening trepidation in Washington that the government has fallen behind in preparing for vast technological change.

GET ME REWRITE: Trump stews in his White House bubble

 

AI-generated image requested from Manus 1.6 Lite

Headline:  New York Times, 10/28/2026

Katie Rogers reports:

Amid the loyalists, news clippings, poster boards and pieces of art made by his fans is an increasingly unpredictable president staring down the possibility that the Republican Party could lose both chambers of Congress in next week’s elections. 

Many G.O.P. candidates in tight races have tried to distance themselves from Mr. Trump’s policies, his behavior and the widespread allegations of self-dealing in his administration. Behind the scenes, some political advisers and outside Republican groups have warned the president’s aides that Mr. Trump could do more harm than good by holding rallies in battleground states with uncomfortably close races, according to people with knowledge of the conversations. 

But the president, under pressure and angry with naysayers, has dismissed polls that reflect his unpopularity, and has raged against unflattering stories that plunge him into a dark mood. Determined to win by turning the midterm season into a referendum on himself, he is set to headline rallies around the country all week. [emphasis added]

MISCREANT PREACHERS: Criminal sexual contact with a minor in the Name of the Lord (#418 in a series)

 

 Screengrab: WSPA Spartanburg SC

 Headline:  Yahoo News, 10/29/2026

RipLey Simone reports:

A pastor from Pelzer was arrested in Spartanburg County and is being charged with six counts, including Criminal Sexual Conduct of a Minor, according to the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office. 

64-year-old Tracy Black was arrested Tuesday after a report was made to authorities in September. The sheriff's office said the investigation yielded information for deputies to charge Black with having committed sexual assault against a child on four occasions. 

"There was an electronic device that held some child pornography as well," Lt. Graham McLellan told 7NEWS.

"Whoever says 'I know him' but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him."  (1 John 2:4)
