DARPA's ATLAS robot at the Pentagon in WashingtonYahoo News

Washington (AFP) – US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel got a first-hand look at a life-size robot that resembles Hollywood’s “Terminator,” the latest experiment by the Pentagon’s hi-tech researchers.

But unlike the cinematic version, the hulking Atlas robot is designed not as a warrior but as a humanitarian machine that would rescue victims in the rubble of a natural disaster, officials said on Tuesday.

The 6-foot-2-inch (187 centimeters) Atlas is one of the entrants in a contest designed to produce a man-like life-saver machine, the brainchild of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).   Continue reading “Pentagon scientists show off life-size robot”

imagesSo today I just got fired from my job because the trainer at my company and a new girl decided to snitch on me because I was frustrated with a sales order that I was forced to take the other day which I had no training and no experience in handling and management told me to just go with it. So mind you, I’m a regular worker and not a new hire and this order would cost both the company and the customer thousands of dollars if it was handled incorrectly. So why would you allow someone who was never trained on how to handle it, to take the order and tell him to just “go with it”?

In any case, I got frustrated as any sane person would and said, “Ugh! I could just shoot someone right now”.   Continue reading “Living In A “See Something, Say Something” World”

If you’re an employee of a chain store and you see a shoplifter, don’t confront them. It’s been proven again and again and again and again that no matter how noble your intentions are, you can be fired from your job. As KDFW FOX 4 News reports, this is exactly what happened to one Kroger grocery store manager in Arlington, Texas.   Continue reading “Kroger manager fired after he slams a knife-wielding shoplifter to the ground”

BOSTON (AP) — Police say they’ve taken a man into custody in connection with two unattended backpacks found at the Boston Marathon finish line.

Police spokesman Dave Estrada says the backpacks were discovered Tuesday evening, a year after two bombs in backpacks exploded at the end of the marathon and killed three people.

The bomb squad is checking the backpacks found Tuesday. Police have cleared the area. Trains are bypassing the nearby Copley Square station. The police department has tweeted asking people to avoid the area.    Continue reading “Boston police investigate 2 backpacks, clear area”

Space PlaneYahoo News – by Kyle Mizokami

The Air Force’s secret space plane has been up in orbit for nearly 500 days—a space endurance record. But nearly a year and a half into the mission, the Pentagon still won’t say what the X-37B is doing up there, or when it might come back.

The U.S. Air Force boosted the robotic X-37B atop the nose of an Atlas-5 rocket in December 2012. Since then it’s orbited the Earth thousands of times, overflying such interesting places as North Korea and Iran.    Continue reading “Secret Spaceplane, Mystery Mission”

I recently went by my local Walmart today and noticed a police security tower posted in the parking lot. I was fuming to know that a tower was posted in a parking lot that was so close to my neighborhood, as I lived just a few blocks away from it.

I drove towards it and as usual no one was in it but cameras were posted everywhere around it like a FEMA camp. I looked around to see any reaction to the customers going in and out of Walmart and everyone completely ignored it, playing the “ignorance is strength” card.   Continue reading “City Property VS Public Property: The New Communist Rhetoric”

William Shakespeare once wrote, “All the world’s a stage”. Words can never ring more true than where we are at today.

In the NWO black and white, West corner of the ring, we have the 6 foot 2 inch tall Manchurian Candidate, Barry Soetoro, the illegal, narcissistic, foreign, homosexual, Communist rat from Kenya, weighing at a tiny 165 pounds, with a 13 ½ shoe size and afraid to break a nail, swaggers in a third world, cocky way and who cannot say anything without his teleprompter and is more than happy to take credit for something good, but runs away like a sissy and searches for a scapegoat when something falls apart.    Continue reading “Putin and Obama: The Staged Wrestling Match of the World!”

nc 1It happened in my apartment complex Thursday afternoon in Mckinney, TX between 4pm-4:30pm. I did not arrive at my apartment until around 6:30pm, but from the pictures that I took, the police were still there quartering off part of the area with yellow tape. A total of six cop cars and two unmarked cars were there with detectives and forensics investigating the scene.

Upon walking up to one of the cops, he quickly told me that everything was ok and after I repeatedly asked him the question and told him that I lived here and had a right to know, he rose his tone and then said, if you want to know, talk to the manager of the complex.   Continue reading “Shots Fired in an Apartment Complex in McKinney, TX”

Empty Supermarket - Photo by InfrogmationEnd of the American Dream – by Michael Snyder

In the event that a major crisis or emergency strikes the United States, you are not going to be able to eat your gold and silver.  If we get into a situation where supermarkets get cleaned out and food supplies get very tight, you are going to wish that you had stored some things away for your family.  Now don’t get me wrong – I actually love gold and silver.  I believe that they are both going to multiply in price during the years ahead.  I particularly love silver for a couple of reasons.  Unlike gold, silver is used in thousands upon thousands of different consumer products, so the physical supply is constantly diminishing.  And historically, silver comes out of the ground at about a 10 to 1 ratio compared to gold, but right now the price of gold is about 65 times the price of silver.  At some point there is going to be a massive adjustment there.  But if you just rely on accumulating gold and silver and you never store up any food, you could end up deeply regretting that choice someday.   Continue reading “You Can’t Eat Gold And Silver”

After fending off numerous attacks on the freedom of the internet last year, activists and independent journalists alike are now facing another hurdle that flies in the face of freedom of the press, the “Journalist Shield Law“.

Although the bill is being sold by the Obama administration and establishment politicians in both parties as a positive step in protecting free speech, unfortunately the name of this bill is highly deceiving. Remembering just how unpatriotic the Patriot Act was, this new law, although deceivingly named, is likely to crush freedom of speech of any journalist not on a corporate payroll. According to the AP, this is how the bill defines who a real journalist is:   Continue reading “Feinstein’s Bill to Kill Free Speech of Independent Journalists ‘Has Votes’ to Pass Senate”

A Facebook update from a father frustrated with the Common Core math program at his son’s school is making the Internet rounds after the father Jeff Severt expressed (via what looks like a kid’s homework assignment) how convoluted the teaching approach is.

The worksheet posted to Facebook shows the elaborate Common Core (CC) formula for solving a math problem (as opposed to the simple strategy of subtracting the smaller number from the larger one). It instructs the student to explain why a fictional kid named “Jack” should be using common core strategies to solve the problem: “Jack used the number line below to solve 427 – 316. Find his error. Then write a letter to Jack telling him what he did right, and what he should do to fix his mistake.”   Continue reading “Read Parent’s Facebook Response to ‘Ridiculous’ Common Core Math Homework”

In a few years, you may never have to worry about manually charging your cell phone or paying for gasoline again.

Wireless electricity isn’t a new concept – it was publicly demonstrated over 100 years ago by Nikola Tesla – but has remained elusive in broad commercial applications.

However, a startup company says they are working to change that, with a business model that could make portable power commonplace.   Continue reading “Wireless electricity may soon power cell phones, cars and even heart pumps”

A fast-moving fire that consumed a large apartment building under construction in San Francisco’s Mission Bay neighborhood burned into the night Tuesday, but firefighters were able to keep the blaze from spreading to nearby structures.

The five-alarm fire engulfed the building on Fourth Street near China Basin Street just before 5 p.m., sending black smoke thousands of feet into the sky. Scaffolding melted as chunks of the six-story, 80-foot-tall building fell away. Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White called it the city’s largest blaze in several years.   Continue reading “Huge fire destroys Mission Bay construction project”

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A divided federal appeals court has struck down California’s concealed weapons rules, saying they violate the Second Amendment right to bear arms.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Thursday that California is wrong to require applicants to show good cause to receive a permit to carry a concealed weapon. The court ruled that all law-abiding citizens are entitled to carry concealed weapons outside the home for self-defense purposes.   Continue reading “Court tosses California’s concealed weapons rules”

(TRN) — Insurance Companies in the United States have begun notifying customers they will no longer have ANY coverage whatsoever for anything relating to nuclear energy claims.  Fallout, radiation sickness, property damage from radiation – all EXCLUDED.  This begs the question:  If the nuclear disaster at the Fukushima power plant in Japan is as harmless to Americans as the government and “scientists” are telling us, why are Insurance companies specifically EXCLUDING coverage for nuclear energy related claims?  (Hint: The government is lying about the danger.)   Continue reading “Fukushima Radiation causing U.S. Insurance Companies to EXCLUDE all Coverage for Radiation Claims”
