When defense lawyer Fermín L. Arraiza-Navas sat down with a prospective client in San Juan, Puerto Rico last April, he casually asked the man about the Global Positioning System (GPS) ankle bracelet that he was wearing as a condition for his bail.
The reply was just as casual.
“They speak to me through that thing,” the man said. Continue reading “Caution: Your GPS Ankle Bracelet Is Listening”

BERLIN — To appreciate the scope and impact of a joint investigative series by the highly regarded German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung and German public television station NDR on the depth of American trespasses in this country, you don’t even have to read a word of the reports, or watch the videos.
All you really have to do is take a look at the U.S. Embassy rebuttal of the series. The multi-part, multi-media series was put on line beginning Friday morning, though some parts weren’t up until evening. And others are said to be coming during the coming weeks. The U.S. Embassy in Germany press office statement came out just after 3 p.m. Continue reading “German Expose of America’s “Secret War” Attracts Quick, Strong U.S. Rebuttal”
As I approach my twilight years, I am struck by the inevitability that the party must end. And one clear, cold morning after I’m gone, my spouse will awaken in the warmth of our bedroom and be struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn’t “anymore.”
No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more “just 5 minutes more.” Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, or say “I love you.” Continue reading “When I am gone”
The Obama administration may be alarmed over the dismal number of people signing up for Obamacare, the rising health-care costs for Americans, the legal challenges to the religious discrimination embedded in the law and other problems.
But all of that would be of no consequence if a lawsuit in federal court in Washington succeeds. It alleges senators overstepped their authority in creating the Affordable Care Act and the law, therefore, is null and void. Continue reading “Will this court case shatter Obamacare?”
The U.S. military is working on plans to train 5,000 to 7,000 members of the Libyan security forces and also special operations forces The training will risk including terrorists from the troubled Mideast nation. Continue reading “U.S. to Train Libyan Military, Including Islamist Branch”

Militia News – by James Wesley Rawles
The citizenry, mimicking the Germans of the 1930s passively goes along with each of these baby steps, never quite chafing to the point of outright rebellion. The end result is a society that has made itself voluntarily monitored 24/7, agreed to centralized background checks just to exercise a Constitutional right, that has agreed to being either fondled or x-rayed by blue glove-wearing half-wits at airports. With our own tax dollars (annually self-assessed, of course) we have equipped an army of steroid-pumped henchmen who are ready, willing, and able to not just Taser us at the slightest sign of noncompliance, but even willing to arrest and drag us to a hospital for multiple rectal examinations because of the mere suspicion that we “might be hiding something.” Continue reading “Do We Sit By And Watch, Or Do We Show Up And Fight?”

There are now over one billion cars traveling roads around the world directly and indirectly costing trillions of dollars in material resources, time and noxious emissions. Imagine all these cars running cleanly for 100 years on just 8 grams of fuel each.
Laser Power Systems (LPS) from Connecticut, USA, is developing a new method of automotive propulsion with one of the most dense materials known in nature: thorium. Because thorium is so dense it has the potential to produce tremendous amounts of heat. The company has been experimenting with small bits of thorium, creating a laser that heats water, produces steam and powers a mini turbine.

DENNING, N.Y. — Blanketed by the stillness of stone-faced mountains and endless trees now shaded rust and gold, the town of Denning is quiet, so quiet, one longtime resident likes to say, you can hear your heartbeat.
As in other towns in the Catskills, the 550 residents of Denning are a mix of weekenders and full-timers with the occasional celebrity tucked in, like the actor Judd Hirsch, who has lived in the area for more than 40 years. Like his neighbors — neighbors being a relative term, as some live hundreds of yards apart — he came for the peace, but what Mr. Hirsch is proposing to do on his 96-acre property is creating no small amount of disturbance.

A new women’s garment company is developing a line of stylish rape resistant clothing. Have gender relations come to this?
The company, a little start up in Nyack, New York, is crowdfunding its project on Indiegogo and says on its website that it wants to make women feel safer wherever they are or whatever happens to them. To accomplish that, AR Wear is pretty much reclaiming the chastity belt with the mother of all control top pants. Each pair of boy-cut undies is secured with three bands, one around the waist and one on each leg that are very difficult to cut. The pants have a kind of impenetrable modesty panel to cover the business bits. There’s even a lock on the waist, which can only be unlocked using two hands (thus preventing the attacker from restraining his would be victim with the other). These knickers are not coming off in a hurry. Continue reading “Introducing Rape-Preventing Panties (With Locks)”
I have been writing for years that there would come a point in time when the American people would be so outraged that they would rise up and seek to legally remove their government. This time has come, and with a vengeance.
Notwithstanding the massive NSA spy scandal, where the government, lead by President Barack Hussein Obama, has secretly and in contravention of our constitutional rights violated the private Internet, social-network and cellphone records of over 300 million Americans, the growing Obamacare scandal underscores that the government tyranny that must be squelched is bipartisan.

On November 9th, investigative journalist and human rights activist, John McNamer sent a request to the International Criminal Court to investigate Canada’s complicity in war crimes. McNamer argues that Canada has “actively and intentionally failed to comply with legal obligations under The Convention against Torture and the Rome Statue” (page 1). McNamer’s submissions to the ICC include that Canada has transferred detainees to the United States and Afghanistan with full knowledge that the detainees would be in extreme danger of torture and that Canada uses and shares intelligence likely obtained through torture. McNamer provides over 250 documents in support of his allegations. Continue reading “Is Canada Guilty of War Crimes?”
