KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — An Afghan government security guard opened fire Thursday on a group of foreign doctors at a Kabul hospital, killing three American physicians and wounding a U.S. nurse, officials said.

The shooting at Cure International Hospital in western Kabul was the latest in a string of deadly attacks on foreign civilians in the Afghan capital. Two of the dead Americans were a father and son, Health Minister Soraya Dalil said, adding that the third American was a Cure International doctor who had worked in Kabul for seven years.   Continue reading “Afghan hospital guard kills 3 American doctors”

Atlanta (CBS ATLANTA) – An anti-biotic resistant “superbug” that has long affected hospitals and other health care locations around the world has now found a new “reservoir” location: inside U.S. homes.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a bacteria that is resistant to many of the strongest antibiotics, and although recent prevalence has been limited to hospitals and nursing homes, a new study of 161 New York City residents who contracted the MRSA infections finds that the these people’s homes were “major reservoirs” for the bacteria strains, HealthDay reports.   Continue reading “Study: Antibiotic-Resistant MRSA ‘Superbug’ Found In US Homes”

American law enforcement has long advocated for universal “kill switches” in cellphones to cut down on mobile device thefts. Now the Department of Justice argues that the same remote locking and data-wiping technology represents a threat to police investigations–one that means they should be free to search phones without a warrant.

In a brief filed to the U.S. Supreme Court yesterday in the case of alleged Boston drug dealer Brima Wurie, the Justice Department argues that police should be free to warrantlessly search cellphones taken from suspects immediately at the time of arrest, rather than risk letting the suspect or his associates lock or remotely wipe the phone before it can be searched.   Continue reading “Feds Beg Supreme Court to Let Them Search Phones Without a Warrant”

Yesterday Texas Attorney General, Greg Abbott, held a press conference in the Spring Branch Independent School District. SBISD is one of many districts (including CCISD) that has filed suit against the State of Texas for inadequate school funding. Abbott is defunding the schools and defending the State. Awkward!

But Abbott stunned everyone when he announced his support of standard testing and drug testing of 4 year olds. Abbott’s staff was quick to defend his position:

Helping Misguided Voters – by Dianne Richardson

For decades US presidents of both parties have used the words, the ‘New World Order’ in speeches. (1A)(1B)(1C)(1D) This is the UN’s grand plan to herd all humans, except the elites, into high-rise urban zones of their designation and design, while leaving the vast land masses to nature. It’s formally known Agenda 21, aka Earth-friendly Communism. Except that nature would be managed so as to feed everyone in the way the New World Order decides. (2) This plan fits the desires of other elite groups that also want to control us, so the concept gets support from the likes of the Bilderberg Group through the Federal Reserve and we presume Wall Street’s Goldman Sachs, as well as the Trilateral Commission, a future world controlled by a supreme Muslim monarch with caliphates, and the future world of Communism soon to be lead by Barack Hussein Obama. (3) Because it’s too early to react, I suppose the plan by each group is to wait until it’s about done, then ‘fight it out’ to see who wins ultimate control. In the meantime, they are happy to take their share of whatever comes their way during the global conversion.   Continue reading “The March Toward The New World Order”

At least 40 U.S. veterans died waiting for appointments at the Phoenix Veterans Affairs Health Care system, many of whom were placed on a secret waiting list.

The secret list was part of an elaborate scheme designed by Veterans Affairs managers in Phoenix who were trying to hide that 1,400 to 1,600 sick veterans were forced to wait months to see a doctor, according to a recently retired top VA doctor and several high-level sources.   Continue reading “A fatal wait: Veterans languish and die on a VA hospital’s secret list”

With revelations that the National Security Agency has collected some20 trillion phone calls and emails via an expansive nationwide surveillance network, most Americans have already come to the realization that everything they do is being monitored.

But many shrug off Big Brother’s prying eyes by suggesting that, since they aren’t doing anything wrong, they have nothing to worry about.   Continue reading “Pre-Crime Systems Now Actively Monitoring the Internet: “The Computer Algorithm Learns the Pattern and Produces a Prediction””

A Dallas jury ruled Tuesday in favor of the Parr family, which sued Aruba Petroleum in 2011 after each member of the family noticed a decline in health that, their attorneys argued in court, was the result of dozens of gas wells surrounding their home in Wise County, Texas.   Continue reading “Family awarded $3 million in first US fracking trial”
