CHAHUITES, Mexico (AP) — Mexico’s largest crackdown in decades on illegal migration has decreased the flow of Central Americans trying to reach the United States, and has dramatically cut the number of child migrants and families, according to officials and eyewitness accounts along the perilous route.

Convoys of Mexican federal police and immigration service employees in southern Mexico have begun scouring the tracks of the infamous freight train known as “La Bestia,” or The Beast, that has long carried crowds of migrants on its lumbering route north. They have also set up moving roadblocks, checking the documents of passengers on interstate buses.   Continue reading “Mexico operations thwart child, family migrants”

As part of a legal settlement that will allow some illegal immigrants who deported themselves from Southern California to return to the United States, the federal government has agreed to advertise the settlement on various Mexican and Spanish-language media outlets.

The ACLU filed a class-action lawsuit last year on behalf of eleven illegal immigrants who deported themselves. The settlement reached on Wednesday will only cover “longtime California residents with relatives who are U.S. citizens and… young migrants whose parents brought them into the country illegally” who deported themselves between 2009 and 2013. An ACLU official has indicated that there were nearly 250,000 people who were “deported voluntarily from Southern California between 2009 and 2013” and estimated to the Los Angeles Times that the “number of repatriations could reach into the hundreds or thousands.”   Continue reading “Feds to Advertise Settlement Allowing Deported Illegals to Return”

Legal pact likely to slow deportations

(Washington Times) – Federal agents will have to read a Miranda rights-style list of protections to immigrants before sticking them in fast-track deportation proceedings, according to the terms of a legal settlement announced Wednesday that will make it tougher for the Obama administration to quickly deport illegal immigrants.

Tens of thousands of immigrants previously already sent home could also apply to come back into the U.S. and plead with a judge to be allowed to stay — though immigration officials said the number that end up winning their cases will be small.   Continue reading “Illegals to be Read ‘Miranda-Style’ List of Rights on Deportation”

The U.S. Bureau of Land Management will resume issuing oil and gas leases next year for federal lands in California after a new study found limited environmental impacts from fracking and other enhanced drilling techniques, the agency said Thursday.

The move will end a halt that has stood since a federal judge ruled in 2013 that the federal agency failed to follow environmental law in allowing an oil extraction method known as fracking on public land in Monterey County.   Continue reading “BLM to Resume Leasing for Fracking in California”

Traumatic events are known to be lasting. People wake up in the middle of the night from a nightmare or everyday things may remind them of the traumatic event. But soon, people may be able to take the negative emotions associated with a memory and change it into a positive emotion.

In a study published in Nature, researchers at MIT show that they are able to change the positive or negative emotions tied to memory in mice, and are optimistic that the findings can be translated to humans.   Continue reading “Scientists switch out bad memories for good in mice: Hope for PTSD?”

Russian hackers attacked JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) and at least four other banks this month in a coordinated assault that resulted in the loss of gigabytes of customer data, according to two people familiar with the investigation.

At least one of the banks has linked the breach to Russian state-sponsored hackers, said one of the people. The FBI is investigating whether the attack could have been in retaliation for U.S.-imposed sanctions on Russia, said the second person, who also asked not to be identified, citing the continuing investigation.   Continue reading “Russian Hackers Said to Loot Gigabytes of Big Bank Data”

Repeated security concerns at WIPP

The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is a deep geological disposal facility in New Mexico designed for the safe deposit of radioactive waste used with nuclear weapons. According to the US Department of Energy, it is the only plant of its kind in the United States. It is used for storing radioactive waste material from nuclear weapons safely away from the outside environment. The Department states that the waste “consists primarily of clothing, tools, rags debris, residues and other non-liquid disposable items contaminated with trace amounts of radioisotopes”.   Continue reading “Concerns rise over radioactive waste disposal after New Mexico leak”

When the news media reports on radiation, it is usually prompted by a cataclysmic accident such as occurred at Chernobyl or Fukushima. The reality of the situation is however, we are exposed to low levels of radiation on a daily basis, which can have deleterious affects on population centers without residents being any the wiser. Known as stochastic health effects, the study measures the effects of low-level, chromic exposure to radiation.   Continue reading “When is Too Much Radiation too Much?”
