Created by Arizona entrepreneur Mark Phillips“Palcohol” is the brand name for a new powdered alcohol.

The cakes that he ordered were specifically requested to be shaped like bibles, and have the words “God hates gays” written on them, with a picture of two men holding hands with a line through it.   Continue reading “Bakery Under Government Investigation For Refusing To Write Anti-Gay Message On A Cake”

American Sniper is directed by Clint Eastwood, and tells the story of Chris Kyle, a US Navy Seal who served four tours of duty in Iraq as a sniper credited with 160 confirmed “kills”, and earning him the dubious honor of being lauded the most lethal sniper in US military history.

Played by Bradley Cooper, in the movie Kyle is an all-American hero, a Texas cowboy who joins the military out of a sense of patriotism and a yearning for purpose and direction in his life. Throughout the ‘uber-tough’ selection process, Kyle is a bastion of stoicism and determination, willing to bear any amount of pain and hardship for the honor of being able to serve his country as a Navy Seal – America’s equivalent of the Samurai.   Continue reading “Hollywood uses ‘American Sniper’ to destroy history & create myth”

Yellowstone National Park’s bison population is about to start getting much smaller, as the park has reportedly sent at least 200 bison to slaughter in an effort to cull the winter population by approximately 900 animals.

The statistics come from an American conservation group called the Buffalo Field Campaign (BFC), which has traditionally been against the park’s annual attempts at bison population control, pinning the behavior on outdated laws and pressure from the livestock industry. Officials say that the culling of the herd is necessary to ensure that bison infected with a problematic bacterial disease do not transmit it to cattle herds raised by Montana ranchers.   Continue reading “Yellowstone Park ships 200+ bison to slaughter, more planned – conservation group”

The deadline imposed by ISIS for Japan to pay $200 million to free two captives passed, starting what the terrorist group called a countdown clock on Friday, even as questions swirled about the authenticity of the initial tape and whether the pair is even alive.

A tweet from a Twitter account linked to ISIS said the hostages had been killed “because of Japan’s choices.” The tweet, on the same one that previously posted the countdown clock, warned that a new video was “being sent to production.” Intelligence sources told Fox News the claim the hostages had been killed could not be confirmed, but said the situation is being monitored as they await release of a new video.    Continue reading “Experts say ISIS ransom clip faked as deadline for Japanese hostages passes”
