MOSCOW, June 29, 2013 (AFP) – Russia on Friday accused Washington of putting it in a “tough spot” by claiming it had failed to disclose revoking the passport of fugitive US intelligence leaker Edward Snowden prior to his arrival in Moscow from Hong Kong.

The diplomatic rhetoric around the explosive case of the 30-year-old former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor escalated when Washington blamed Hong Kong’s government of acting in bad faith by letting Snowden out in the first place.   Continue reading “Russia says US put it in ‘tough spot’ over Snowden”

Each year, 1.5 million heart attacks occur in the United States resulting in over 500,000 deaths. Another common, though usually less fatal, cardiovascular problem is irregular heart beat. Though irregular heart beats are not as serious as heart attacks in most instances, they can lead to serious complications if not treated. The good news is that nature has a potent herbal solution for each condition which will usually stop them in their tracks in short order.   Continue reading “How to stop heart attacks and irregular heart beats in their tracks”

Proponents of federal legislation that wouldexpand background checks on people buying firearms brought their nationwide bus tour to New Orleans on Saturday, thanking U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., for supporting the measure and reading names of victims of gun violence. Speakers at the sparsely attended press conference in the shadow of New Orleans’ City Hall included Neil Heslin, whose 6-year-old son Jesse Lewis was among the 20 first graders and six teachers who were slain by a gunman at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., last year.   Continue reading “Gun background check supporters hold rally in New Orleans”

Monticello, December 26, 1825

Dear Sir,

—I wrote you a letter yesterday, of which you will be free to make what use you please. This will contain matters not intended for the public eye. I see, as you do, and with the deepest affliction, the rapid strides with which the federal branch of our government is advancing towards the usurpation of all the rights reserved to the States, and the consolidation in itself of all powers, foreign and domestic; and that, too, by constructions which, if legitimate, leave no limits to their power.

A report by Jeremy Scahill in The Nation revealed that the largest mercenary army in the world, Blackwater (now called Xe Services) clandestine intelligence services was sold to the multinational Monsanto. Blackwater was renamed in 2009 after becoming famous in the world with numerous reports of abuses in Iraq, including massacres of civilians. It remains the largest private contractor of the U.S. Department of State “security services,” that practices state terrorism by giving the government the opportunity to deny it.   Continue reading “Yes, Monsanto Actually DID Buy the BLACKWATER Mercenary Group!”

Pondering on the “Where’s Snowdo?” situation, I wondered “Why Iceland?”, Iceland was the first place Snowden originally wanted safe haven. One might look at the events below, and be inspired that peaceful solutions can actually exist.

In an age where a farmer in Africa can hold in his hand more information access than Ronald Reagan had in the Situation Room, would you believe the worlds 13th most developed nation and one of humanities oldest Democracies could have a revolution, oust the parliament, bring up their Prime Minister on criminal charges, then crowd source their new constitution to ALL the people over the internet; and you haven’t heard about it for 4 years? Well it is in process, right now and it began in 2008.  I’m betting (like me) you never heard about it either… get a load of this:   Continue reading “Why [no] Iceland? They’re Having a Revolution!”

PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) — One element of President Barack Obama’s Africa policy is to encourage a free press, although he offered repeated reminders for U.S. reporters traveling with him on the continent to be on their best behavior.

“Americans, behave yourselves,” he needled as a contingent of U.S. and South African media was pulled from a quick photo-op Saturday with President Jacob Zuma.   Continue reading “WHITE HOUSE NOTEBOOK: Obama to US media: ‘Behave’”

Real Farmacy – by Matt Agorist

Americans consume somewhere in the ballpark of 5 billion hamburgers a year. To keep up with this demand, just over 4100 cows are slaughtered every hour in the U.S. That’s a lot of dead cows! When 68 cows a minute are slaughtered you can bet that mistakes are made or parts are shifted into the wrong areas. A study published in the Annals of Diagnostic Pathology helped to discover just how much “shifting of parts” is really going on.

The study presumed that most hamburgers are composed primarily of meat. 8 different popular fast food hamburger brands were tested using histologic methods. The burgers were evaluated for water content by weight and then microscopically to verify tissue types. An additional test known as Glial fibrillary acidic protein staining was used to test for brain tissue. We’ll give you the good news first, none of the eight samples had brains in them. Unfortunately that is as good as it gets.   Continue reading “Fast Food Burgers Only 7% Meat, The 8 Other ‘Ingredients’ Will Disgust You”
