Ebola is brilliant.
It is a superior virus that has evolved and fine-tuned its mechanism of transmission to be near-perfect. That’s why we’re all so terrified. We know we can’t destroy it. All we can do is try to divert it, outrun it. Continue reading “I’m a Hazmat-Trained Hospital Worker: Here’s What No One Is Telling You About Ebola”

A doctor claims that he developed a successful drug to combat Ebola with the U.S. Army at Ft. Detrick Maryland but that the research was inexplicably shut down two weeks before the first outbreak of the virus in West Africa.
Richard C. Davis, M.D., a former flight surgeon with the U.S. Navy, told Infowars that he was leading a project to develop a drug called RC-2Beta, which according to Davis works, “at the core of our cells to enhance mitochondrial efficiency and promote gene signaling to stimulate cellular self-repair and pathogen destruction.” Continue reading “Doctor: U.S. Army Rejected Successful Ebola Drug 2 Weeks Before Outbreak”

A Canadian-made experimental vaccine against Ebola is about to begin human trials and holds our best hope for immunizing those at risk. The big question, however, is whether or not it be ready in time to stop the spread of this deadly disease.
At this point the vaccine, dubbed VSV-EBOV, has proven to be 100% effective in primates, both in preventing sickness and increasing survival rates in infected individuals when given promptly after diagnosis. Continue reading “Human trials set to begin for Ebola vaccine: What does that mean?”

A man wearing a surgical mask and a woman got onto a bus in Los Angeles Monday afternoon. He proclaimed, “I have Ebola!” Moments later, he threw the mask on the ground, and they both got off the bus.
Now, the FBI is involved in trying to track down the man, with an investigation being treated as a possible terrorist or criminal threat, according to Los Angeles Metro officials. Continue reading “Yelling ‘I have Ebola!’ on a bus can get you arrested”
In the coming year, banks in the United States are likely to replace debit or credit cards with versions that have tiny computer chips embedded in them, a move aimed at making shopping in stores more secure.
Bank of America, for instance, has just announced that, beginning this month, all new bank customers will be issued debit cards with chip technology, and that existing cards will be upgraded as they expire. The cards work by creating a unique code for each transaction. While the change will not necessarily stop data breaches from occurring, security experts say, the chip technology prevents criminals from using stolen information to create counterfeit cards. Most credit and debit cards in the United States rely on older “magnetic strip” technology, which is vulnerable to hacking.

Wake Up World – by Zen Gardner
Life is a struggle. How much more so is the spiritual life – the fight to remain conscious in an illusory world where deviant forces vie for control more than caring, battering your very body and soul day in and day out on top of your struggle to survive. Oh, we’re going peacefully downstream in the conscious dimensions. There we learn to let go and follow the flow of the Universe and synchronicity. But in this physical, lower density world, we’re fighting directly upstream. Continue reading “Awakened Warriors, Arise!”
Billowy and filled with life-sustaining water vapor, the cloud passes overhead without emitting a drop of rain. In times of severe drought, that cloud is a frustrating, lumbering tease. That cloud is tantalizing. Delicious even.
What that cloud needs is a kick start, a catalyst to squeeze the water out of it. It’s not science fiction; it’s called cloud-seeding. And in beyond-parched California, it may become a viable option to combat long-term water shortages. Continue reading “Can California Make It Rain With Drones?”
Russia is moving tactical nuclear weapons systems into recently-annexed Crimea while the Obama administration is backing informal talks aimed at cutting U.S. tactical nuclear deployments in Europe.
Three senior House Republican leaders wrote to President Obama two weeks ago warning that Moscow will deploy nuclear missiles and bombers armed with long-range air launched cruise missiles into occupied Ukrainian territory. Continue reading “Russia Deploying Tactical Nuclear Arms in Crimea”
NEW YORK, October 8 (RIA Novosti) – The United States may be behind the deadly Ebola outbreak in Liberia and Sierra Leone, two West African countries known to host American biological warfare laboratories, a University of Illinois College of Law scholar told RIA Novosti on Wednesday.
“US government agencies have a long history of carrying out allegedly defensive biological warfare research at labs in Liberia and Sierra Leone. This includes the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which is now the point agency for managing the Ebola spill-over into the US,” Prof. Francis Boyle said.

MOSCOW, October 10 (RIA Novosti) – The authorities of Ebola-ridden Sierra Leone are counting on Russia’s help in their struggle against the spread of the deadly virus, the Ambassador of Sierra Leone to Russia, John Sahr Yambasu said on Friday.
“Military, police, civil doctors – anybody who can help stop this disease,” John Sahr Yambasu said in an interview with Govorit Moskva radio station, answering a question on what kind of help his country needs at the moment.

Regulators from the United States and the United Kingdom will get together in a war room next week to see if they can cope with any possible fall-out when the next big bank topples over, the two countries said on Friday.
Treasury Secretary Jack Lew and the UK’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, on Monday will run a joint exercise simulating how they would prop up a large bank with operations in both countries that has landed in trouble.
