SAN DIEGO (AP) — Drug smugglers are turning “trusted travelers” into unwitting mules by placing containers with powerful magnets under their cars in Mexico and then recovering the illegal cargo far from the view of border authorities in the United States.

One motorist spotted the containers while pumping gas after crossing into Southern California on Jan. 12 and thought it might be a bomb. His call to police prompted an emergency response at the Chevron station, and then a shocker: 13.2 pounds of heroin were pulled from under the vehicle, according to a U.S. law enforcement official. San Diego police said the drugs were packed inside six magnetized cylinders.   Continue reading “Surprise! Magnets used to plant drugs under cars”

Eerie fluorescent blue patches of water glimmering off Hong Kong’s seashore are magnificent, disturbing and potentially toxic, marine biologists say.

The glow is an indicator of a harmful algal bloom created by something called Noctiluca scintillans, nicknamed Sea Sparkle. It looks like algae and can act like algae. But it’s not quite. It is a single-celled organism that technically can function as both animal and plant.   Continue reading “Magnificent blue glow of Hong Kong seas also disturbing”

HILDALE, Utah (AP) — As polygamist leader Warren Jeffs awaited his fate in a Texas prison, he sent an order to his followers on the Utah-Arizona border: Build me a new compound.

Hundreds of men worked around the clock for three months to construct a mammoth, two-story edifice with dozens of rooms. It was encircled by a 15-foot wall of special white cement. The carpets were turquoise, just as he liked.   Continue reading “Town once run by polygamist leader is sharply divided”

Iran has built a 27-meter-long missile, capable of delivering a warhead “far beyond Europe,” and placed it on a launch pad at a site close to Tehran, an Israeli television report said Wednesday, showing what it said were the first satellite images of the missile ever seen in the West.

It stressed that the missile could be used to launch spacecraft or satellites, but also to carry warheads.   Continue reading “Israeli TV shows ‘Iranian missile’ that ‘can reach far beyond Europe’”

With President Obama pushing to “normalize” relations with Communist Cuba and its Heckle and Jeckle tyrants, Fidel and Raul Castro, there has been talk about where Obama would prop up the Cuban consulate to the United States.

You would think that a natural fit for a Cuban consulate would be the Peoples Republic of North Cuba, or Miami, Florida, but considering that the opening of a consulate in that neck of the Cuban exile woods, would all but guarantee continuous demonstrations of exiles hurling dominoes at the structure, could there be another location in the U.S. that would be best suited for President Obama’s cafe con leche endeavor?   Continue reading “Communist Cuba Looking For a U.S. Home, Obama Serves As Realtor”

Radar devices that allow police officers to effectively see into suspects’ homes raise “privacy concerns of the highest order,” top lawmakers on the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee said Thursday.

At least 50 U.S. law enforcement agencies have secretly equipped their officers with that technology, with little notice to the public or the courts. The devices work like very fine motion detectors, capable of determining whether someone is inside a building by detecting movement as slight as human breathing.   Continue reading “Senators question Holder on police use of motion detectors”
