Justin Thomas and his colleagues at the GRASP Lab have produced an “avian-inspired” claw drone that mimics the way an eagle uses its talons to grab a fish out of the ocean.

A video clip of the drone shows the UAV swooping down at high speed to snatch an object using its 3D printed mechanical claw. By mimicking how a bald eagle sweeps its legs and claws backwards to aerodynamically close in on its prey without the need to slow down, the drone is able to grasp a stationary object with precise efficiency.   Continue reading “DARPA Death Bots: UAV Could Snatch Humans Right Off The Streets”

WASHINGTON — Following President Obama’s lunch meeting with Senate Republicans on Capitol Hill, Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins described the food served and said the president was not able to eat since his “taster” was not present.

“University of Maine recipe for healthy lobster salad — I pointed that out to the president in keeping with the first lady’s initiatives and Fox Family Potato Chips made in Aroostook County where I’m from and wild blueberry pie full of anti-oxidants, see this was a healthy lunch as well. We did have a little ice cream on the pie too, also made in Maine, Gifford’s Ice Cream. So in all seriousness this was well received,” Collins told reporters on Thursday after the meeting at the Capitol.   Continue reading “Obama couldn’t eat at Hill meeting without food ‘taster’”

Do you want to keep drones out of your backyard?

An Oregon company says that it has developed and will soon start selling technology that disables unmanned aircraft.

The company, called Domestic Drone Countermeasures, was founded in late February because some of its engineers see unmanned aerial vehicles—which are already being flown by law enforcement in some areas and could see wider commercial integration into American airspace by 2015—as unwanted eyes in the sky.   Continue reading “Oregon Company to Sell Drone Defense Technology to Public”

In the 1980s, the McMartin family, who operated a preschool in California, were charged with hundreds of acts of sexual abuse of children.When the trial ended with no convictions in 1990, it was the longest & most expensive criminal trial in American history. Hollywood and the mass media portrayed the case as “mass hysteria over imaginary Satanic ritual abuse.” Believe what we tell you; not what you see. That’s how Cabalism works. 

Indictment: The McMartin Trial, rebroadcast on Hebrew Box Office Wednesday, casts the abusers as the victims: John J. O’Connor, writing for The New York Times: “This is a portrait of mass hysteria, fueled by panic-stricken parents, overzealous prosecutors, irresponsible talk shows and an out-of-control tabloid press…”Is Indictment balanced? Is it fair to the other side? No. As [writer] Mr. [Abby] Mann puts it, “What other side?” Watch it and shudder.”  Continue reading “Illuminati Jews Still Covering for 1980’s Satanism”

Institute for Political Economy – by Paul Craig Roberts

Over a decade during which the US economy was decimated by jobs offshoring, economists and other PR shills for offshoring corporations said that the US did not need the millions of lost manufacturing jobs and should be glad that the “dirty fingernail” jobs were gone.

America, we were told, was moving upscale. Our new role in the world economy was to innovate and develop the new products that the dirty fingernail economies would produce. The money was in the innovation, they said, not in the simple task of production.   Continue reading “When Truth Is Suppressed Countries Die”
