A rare fungus found in soil and trees has sickened hundreds of people in British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest in the last decade — and killed dozens — but scientists now say they’re seeing different strains of the potentially deadly bug in additional U.S. states.
As of June, 171 cases of infection caused by Cryptococcus gatti, a fungus once confined to tropical climates, had been reported in the U.S. That includes at least 100 cases in Oregon and Washington, where officials have been tracking an outbreak since 2004.

A new gadget built by Diehl Defense, much like a portable Electro-Magnetic Pulse ray gun, can disable a vehicles electronic circuitry rendering it useless in battlefield or pursuit conditions.
This technology was put to the test on the battlefield of Afghanistan in 2011, while police departments and militaries around the world will likely grovel over the device. Deihl Defense is also a maker of guided missiles and other weaponry. Continue reading “New Police Toy Resembling ‘Ray Gun’ Can Disable Threatening Vehicles Via EMP”

Will the turmoil in the Middle East surrounding Syria expedite approval of the Keystone XL pipeline? North Dakota Republican Senator John Hoeven believes it will.
Hoeven, an ardent supporter of the pipeline, recently told a North Dakota newspaper, “Right now, we’re determining how to respond in the Middle East, specifically Syria, and it shows, with the volatile situation there, how important it is that we can produce our own energy in North America and not have to get it from the Middle East.” Continue reading “Republican Congressman Says Syrian Conflict A Boon For Keystone XL”
Safety Warning: Read up on your confined spaces safety prior to trying any of this. You can die so easily in confined spaces.
Let me just say first off… I am not an engineer… Civil or Combat. How you go about constructing a DFP (Defensive Fighting Position) is not going to be discussed. Cave ins are a huge risk. Mining is a very risky job. I would not recommend anyone undertake construction unless it is vital to your survival to do so. Continue reading “Defensive Considerations for Survival”
Five. That’s all the vote-switchers that anti-gunners had to muster in the Missouri Senate to kill a nullification bill BY ONE VOTE. Gun Owners of America had pushed the bill back in the spring when it was overwhelmingly passed by the House and Senate. Sadly, it was vetoed by Governor Jay Nixon shortly thereafter — and the veto override fell just one vote short this week.
Governor Jay Nixon (D) vetoed HB 436 this spring, after the Missouri House and Senate had overwhelmingly passed it. Among other things, the nullification bill would have made it illegal in Missouri to enforce unconstitutional laws that take away people’s Second Amendment rights.

The following is yet another excellent article on the New World Order’s plans to control the minds of the entire population on this planet. It documents the most common types of societal “brainwashing” as well as some of the more sophisticated ones including the US Government’s (The Hub of the New World Order)use of the HAARP antenna farm in Alaska as a venue for remote mass mind control of the citizens of this planet. Continue reading “Who is in Control of our Mind?”
May I reiterate a point I made a bit ago?
Maybe it’s the drone white paper. Killing Americans willy-nilly because some “highly informed” political official deems them dangerous, or it’s too “burdensome” for government to get, you know, judicial or Congressional review…
Progressives will always end up mass murdering their fellow citizens. Continue reading “They WILL Kill You”
In 2012, the U.S. will spend around $220 billion in net interest on its debt, according to the Congressional Budget Office — a figure that is expected to spiral ever higher in coming years.
Erskine Bowles, a co-chair of the president’s bipartisan deficit-reduction commission known as “Simpson-Bowles,” has called the nation’s compound interest burden one of the biggest long-term challenges facing the United States.

BEIRUT (AP) — Al-Qaida-affiliated rebels battled more moderate Syrian opposition fighters in a town along the Iraqi border on Saturday, killing at least five people in the latest outbreak of infighting among the forces opposed to President Bashar Assad’s regime.
Clashes between rebel groups, particularly pitting al-Qaida-linked extremist factions against more moderate units, have grown increasingly common in recent months, undermining the opposition’s primary goal of overthrowing Assad. Continue reading “Syrian rebel infighting kills 5 near Iraqi border”
In our agrarian past, we didn’t have a grocery store in every town receiving shipments of fresh fruits and vegetables from all corners of the world on a daily basis. Food preservation was a necessity to survive the long winter in most locations. Over the centuries, many have gotten their winter produce fix from a simple non-tech solution: the root cellar.
Last year when I did my One-Month Stockpile Challenge, I realized that this was a glaring omission in my food stockpile process, so this year, I’m determined to add this strategy to take my stockpile to the next level. Fall is the perfect time to begin because for the next few months, those hard-shelled root vegetables as well as items like apples and potatoes, will be abundant and cheap.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau officials are seeking to monitor four out of every five U.S. consumer credit card transactions this year — up to 42 billion transactions – through a controversial data-mining program, according to documents obtained by the Washington Examiner.
A CFPB strategic planning document for fiscal years 2013-17 describes the “markets monitoring” program through which officials aim to monitor 80 percent of all credit card transactions in 2013. Continue reading “CFPB’s data-mining on consumer credit cards challenged in heated House hearing”
It was just a cockroach, one of millions around the world. But this one had a White House address, making it pretty special. Well, special at least to the reporters with workspace in the often-troubled basement of the press offices. Already this year, they have been treated to flooding, soaked carpet, mousetraps and the wondrous odors of mold. Continue reading “Bugged: Obama’s Roach Problem”
GREENFIELD, CA — An innocent man was was killed in his own home by a fire caused by an aggressive SWAT team, and while never publicly admitting guilt, the sheriff’s department has finally made a monetary settlement with the family of the deceased. Two years later, justice has never been reached for the killers of Roger Serrato, who received no punishment for their role in the negligent homicide of an man unrelated to the crime they were investigating, and were in fact verbally commended by county officials. Continue reading “Misidentified man killed when SWAT team started his house on fire”

California is run by Cal State Berkley radical liberals. They are creating a liberal utopia here. It’s been done several time throughout history and NOT ONCE did it end well. BUT here’s the catch: The other nations that fell into chaos,war,genocide didn’t have a mother nation. California has YOU, you being the rest of the nation as it’s fallback. YOU will be responsible for saving California when it fails, YOU will be responsible for the refugees who storm the borders of AZ and NV. Sorry folks, I did my best….

Yesterday, we sounded the alarm on the draconian gun control bills the California Legislature just passed in our article titled, “SB 374: Assault Weapons Ban Passes, California Legislature Sends Bill to Governors Desk.” Today, we are going to analyze these bills and see what exactly they mean to us.
