China - Public DomainEnd of the American Dream – by Michael Snyder

In terms of purchasing power, China now has the largest economy on the entire planet, but that is not the only area where China has surpassed the United States.  China also accounts for more total global trade than the U.S. does, China consumes more energy than the U.S. does, and China now manufactures more goods than the U.S. does.  In other words, the era of American economic dominance is rapidly ending.  Global economic power is making a dramatic shift to the east, and that is going to have huge implications for our future.  We already owe the Chinese well over a trillion dollars, and as our economic infrastructure crumbles we are feverishly borrowing even more money in a desperate attempt to prop up our falling standard of living.  If we continue down this path, what will the future look like for future generations of Americans?   Continue reading “Not Just The Largest Economy – Here Are 26 Other Ways China Has Surpassed America”

Prevent Disease – by Mae Chan

It doesn’t have a catchy name or a trendy following to drop a size, but when it comes to your health, it’s one of the most effective diets in the world. Proponents of the diet say it can reduce heart disease risk, keep existing cardiac problems in check, reduce blood triglycerides and blood pressure, soothe arthritic joints and even prevent cancer. There’s no need to look anywhere but your kitchen.

While each plan has its own twist, all are based on the general concept that constant or out-of-control inflammation in the body leads to ill health, and that eating to avoid constant inflammation promotes better health and can ward off disease, says Russell Greenfield, MD, a clinical assistant professor of medicine at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.   Continue reading “The Anti-Inflammatory Diet Only Leads In One Direction – Health”

In 1863, the United States of America was in the midst of a devastating civil war.

Thousands of people had just lost their lives at Gettysburg, and Sherman was preparing for his march to the sea, laying waste to Atlanta in the process.

New York City was embroiled in the most violent riots in its history.   Continue reading “The US ranks #36 in the world for respecting property rights. Is this freedom?”

As if Dallas weren’t enough of a circus already, Reverend Jesse Jackson has announced that he will be working with community leaders in Dallas to make sure that Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan receives “the best humanitarian relief” available.

(Because round the clock care and rare experimental drug therapy isn’t enough, I guess.)   Continue reading “The Inevitable: Jesse Jackson Makes Ebola Scare About Jesse Jackson”

Turkey SyriaCNS News – by Susan Jones

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), an early and vocal advocate of U.S. intervention in Syria, is warning of “mass slaughter” in Kobani, a Syrian town on the border with Turkey where fighting raged on Monday.

Islamic State fighters are battling Kurdish defenders for control of Kobani. “And if it falls, there is going to be a mass slaughter,” McCain told Fox News’s Neil Cavuto on Monday. And there will be no better indication of the ineffectiveness and fecklessness of this air campaign we’re now seeing, where you warn the enemy weeks ahead of time.   Continue reading “McCain: ISIS Advance Shows ‘Ineffectiveness and Fecklessness’ of Air Strikes”

Next Big Future – by Brian Wang

Scientists from MIT say they’ve figured out the underlying physics of a new type of energy generation which could one day make it possible to generate electricity directly from liquid fuels using a process called a Thermopower Wave.

There’s no heavy pollution, no noisy engine, and intermediary energy state, although the technology is still very much in the experimental stage.   Continue reading “Thermowave power using graphene or carbon nanotubes could enable pulsed power from liquid fuel without emissions”

Very strong and extremely dangerous M6.6 earthquake struck Yunnan, ChinaThe Watchers – by Adonai

A very strong and shallow earthquake measuring M6.6 (CENC) on the Richter scale struck Chinese province of Yunnan on October 7, 2014, at 13:49 UTC (21:49 local time). CENC reported very shallow depth of 5 km. USGS is reporting M6.0 at depth of 10 km.

FBI asking for helpChicago Tribune – by Jason Meisner

One day after a Bolingbrook teen was accused in federal court in Chicago of plotting to travel to the Middle East and join Islamic State, the FBI is asking for the public’s help to identify other individuals who have traveled — or are planning to travel — overseas to fight alongside terrorist organizations.

“We need the public’s assistance in identifying U.S. persons going to fight overseas with terrorist groups or who are returning home from fighting overseas,” Michael Steinbach, assistant director of the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division, said in a statement posted Tuesday afternoon on the bureau’s website.   Continue reading “FBI asks public to help identify homegrown terrorists”

In Habersham County, Georgia, it is not a crime to mutilate children in midnight raids, assuming that the assailants are privileged purveyors of state-sanctioned violence.

Following a six-day investigation, a Habersham County Grand Jury has declined to indict the law enforcement officers who nearly murdered 19-month-old Bounkham Phonesavanh by heaving a flash-bang grenade into his crib during a no-knock drug raid earlier this year. The raid followed a tip from an anonymous informant that there were drugs and weapons at the residence, which was supposedly patrolled by armed guards. The same informant claimed that there were no children present at the targeted home. While there was certainly a child on the premises, neither drugs nor guns were found during the raid.   Continue reading “No Criminal Charges for the Baby-Burning Stormtroopers of Habersham County”

EAST DUBLIN, GA — A drug task force gunned down a grandfather in his home during a botched late-night raid that was based on the word of a self-confessed meth addict and burglar who had robbed the property two nights prior. His grieving widow is disputing the official story regarding the no-knock raid that led to her husband’s untimely death.

Another day, another federal appeals court invalidates a state ban on gay marriage. Writing today for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, Judge Stephen Reinhardt struck down Idaho and Nevada’s prohibitions on same-sex unions:

[The states’] essential contention is that bans on same-sex marriage promote the welfare of children, by encouraging good parenting in stable opposite-sex families. Heightened scrutiny, however, demands more than speculation and conclusory assertions, especially when the assertions are of such little merit. [The states] have presented no evidence of any such effort. Indeed, they cannot even explain the manner in which, as they predict, children of opposite-sex couples will be harmed. Their other contentions are equally without merit. Because defendants have failed to demonstrate that these laws further any legitimate purpose, they unjustifiable discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation, and are in violation of the Equal Protection Clause.
