COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s governor delayed a condemned child killer’s execution on Wednesday to study the feasibility of accommodating the unusual request by a state death row inmate to donate his organs.

Gov. John Kasich’s decision came less than 24 hours before Ronald Phillips was scheduled to die for the rape and death of his girlfriend’s 3-year-old daughter in Akron in 1993. His lethal injection Thursday was to be the first time a new two-drug combination was tried in the U.S.   Continue reading “Organ-donor request delays Ohio killer’s execution”

A $4 million military drone plopped out of the sky into Lake Ontario and now nobody can find it. The National Guard reported that one of its flying robots plummeted into the eastern part of the lake around 1 p.m. yesterday, but had to give up searching for it because of bad weather.

The MQ-9 Reaper was on a practice mission over the military-controlled waters when it suddenly crashed about three hours into its session. The unarmed drone was being operated from the New York Air National Guard’s 174th Attack Wing in Syracuse. A Coast Guard vessel and helicopter were deployed to find it, but, uh, couldn’t.   Continue reading “The Military Could Use Your Help Looking for a Drone It Lost in Lake Ontario”

(Author’s note: Although this current event thesis may be considered by some a black vs. white and/or being white is somehow good and therefore being black must be bad, nothing could be further from the truth. It is offered to highlight how the corrupt and divisive use of racism can be used as the instrument of destruction to overthrow the once God-fearing Nation, the once thriving Constitutional Republic, the once dominant economic world power, by the devastative-tactic fashioned by Julius Caesar to Divide and Conquer.)   Continue reading “You’re On The Wrong Side”

Last month’s EBT-glitch shopping spree landed those who abused their benefits in hot water when Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal cancelled their SNAP cards. Taxpayers were assured that their dollars would not go to fund the chaotic free-for-all that ensued when shoppers discovered that their benefit cards suddenly had no limits. Wal-Mart made the decision to override the emergency measure of allowing only $50 per card and rang through heaping full carts of goods. The corporation publicly stepped up to the plate and said that they would take the loss. The government was out nothing, and Wal-Mart saved the day.   Continue reading “Insider Reveals Who Really Paid the Bill When Wal-Mart Gave away Unlimited EBT Access”

It seems there are still plenty of parties who would prefer that Arafat’s death continues to be treated as a mystery rather than as an assassination.

It is hard, however, to avoid drawing the logical conclusion from the finding last week by Swiss scientists that the Palestinian leader’s body contained high levels of a radioactive isotope, polonium-210. An inconclusive and much more limited study by a Russian team published immediately after the Swiss announcement also suggests Arafat died from poisoning.   Continue reading “Why Israel Wanted Arafat Dead”

Chicago sinkhole, that’s the threat that has gobbled up a tree and flooded some homes with up to two feet of water and counting this week. Appearing on the Chicago South Side between 124th Street and Wentworth on Saturday night, the expanding sinkhole has become a major cause for concern, though city officials believe that they will have the issue fixed before the end of the month, the Christian Post reports this Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2013.

The Chicago sinkhole is thought to have spanned a broken water main underneath the ground, causing the giant pit to continue crumbling. It is now posing a real danger to some South Side homes as well, gobbling up a tree on a lawn and inundating a few residents’ basements with at least two feet of water.   Continue reading “Chicago sinkhole: Gobbling up tree, sinkhole expands and floods some residences”
