NEW YORK – A horrifying threat has surfaced in the fight West Africans are waging against the epidemic of Ebola – dogs digging up corpses of virus victims and feasting on the remains, then carrying the infection with them wherever they go next.
A recent report in the Mail Online in the U.K. said villagers in Liberia were complaining dogs were found digging up the corpses of Ebola victims buried in shallow graves and eating them in the street. Continue reading “Dogs eat Ebola victims, spread plague”
After 80 years of painstaking experimentation, scientists have directly observed a sub-atomic particle that is its own antiparticle. The breakthrough promises a leap forward in quantum computing and potentially shows the path to finding dark matter.
The particles are called the Majorana fermions, after the Italian scientist who proposed their existence back in 1937. Quantum theory was in its infancy at the time, and scientists first theorized that antimatter existed: an opposite particle to the commonly-observed electrons and other particles were necessary for quantum equations to work.

I can’t lie; I’ve been waiting for an excuse to post a picture of a bacteriophage*, the microscopic spider virus that lands on bacteria to inject its own DNA, for a long time. This Cyborg Life gives me an excuse.
Rather than attacking typical plant or animal cells, the bacteriophage uses bacteria as its host for replication. Highly specialized, the bacteriophage lands on a specific part of a specific bacteria, and just like a syringe with legs, injects its genetic material (which is stored in that big bulb on top).

You can’t turn on the television or radio lately without hearing a breathless report about Ebola. Since most of our kids don’t live in bubbles, they’ve been hearing the same things you are. If you’re worried, concerned, or downright afraid, can you imagine how a child must feel? To allay that fear, it might be time for an age-appropriate talk with them about Ebola.
I’ve always been of the opinion that if my child is old enough to ask the question, they are old enough to receive an age-appropriate answer. When my daughters were small, I’d filter the answer down to one sentence. If they were satisfied with that, I left it alone. If they asked further questions, I went into more detail. They know how much information they can handle, and I feel like, as parents, we are obligated to teach them. When they asked things I didn’t know the answer too, we always looked it up, which I felt was another teachable moment: the answers are there if you know where to look.

WASHINGTON – Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson vowed Friday to “transform and reform” the Secret Service in the wake of high-profile security failures that led this week to the resignation of the agency’s director, telling Fox News that an independent board will soon be asking the “hard questions.”
In an interview on “Special Report with Bret Baier,” Johnson said he plans to name members of that board “in the next couple of days.”
He declined to offer details about “who knew what, when” regarding recent security incidents but said: “I’m more focused on what we need to do to ask the hard questions.” Continue reading “DHS chief Johnson vows to ‘transform and reform’ Secret Service, ask ‘hard questions’”
“Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron Says “Non-Violent Conspiracy Theorists” Are Just As Dangerous As ISIS”
“David Cameron told the U.N. that “non-violent extremism” is just as dangerous as terrorism and must be eradicated using all means at the government’s disposal.
He references 9/11 and 7/7 Truthers as examples of the type of extremism that must be dealt in a similar fashion to ISIS. Continue reading “British Citizen Turns Himself In To Scotland Yard After PM Cameron’s Inflammatory UN Speech”

Angela Brown was charged with child endangerment and permitting a child to be present when possessing a controlled substance back on June 19.
Brown was giving her 15-year-old son Trey cannabis oil to treat his pain and seizures, which are due to a brain injury from 2011.
The Browns say an ER doctor suggested the Madison, Minn., family try medical marijuana, so they went to Boulder, Colo., and brought back some cannabis oil (video below). Continue reading “Mom Going to Trial for Treating Son with Seizures with Medical Marijuana”

CDC officials have told us the outbreak of Ebola on American soil — the first ever Ebola patient diagnosed outside of Africa is here — but don’t worry, they have everything under control.
They have continually reassured the public that they have complete confidence in their protocols and the American medical infrastructure which will follow those protocols to a ‘T’. Continue reading “CDC Director Contradicts Himself Live over How Ebola Is Spread”

Video has recently surfaced showing Baltimore City Police Officer Gualberto Diaz breaking down the door of a Brighton Street apartment, just before he allegedly assaulted a number of the occupants inside, while pointing his gun and making death threats.
While these are the same actions that Diaz carries out in the line of duty every single day, this intrusion was not done under the color of law. Continue reading “On Duty Cop Breaks into House Assaults Estranged Wife And Holds Family At Gunpoint”
In light of the first case of Ebola in the United States emerging earlier this week after Thomas Duncan traveled to and from the country of Liberia to attend a funeral (and then knowing he was infected, lied on a medical form before hopping on a flight back), many people are asking why flight bans or restrictions to Ebola stricken countries have not been put in place.
On Wednesday, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest essentially argued that because America has the ability to treat the disease, that it is unnecessary to implement travel restrictions in order to prevent it from coming here.
