MEXICO CITY—“Kill him! Kill him! Kill him,” chanted a mob of roughly 100 angry Mexicans in Cancun, the popular tourist destination on the coast of Quintana Roo, Mexico. “I’m going to decapitate you,” one man shouted at Aleksei Viktorovich Makeev, as the bloodied 42-year-old Russian resident of Mexico fled the interior of his home for a nearby rooftop while the mob pelted him with large rocks and jeered. When Makeev finally collapsed on the rooftop, covered in his own blood—and that of an unarmed teenager whom he stabbed moments before, after the teen attempted to enter the Russian’s apartment—the townspeople finally let him be, as reporters livestreaming from the scene claimed that Makeev had died.   Continue reading “Mexican Mob Lynches Russian ‘Nazi’ in Cancun”

Columbiana, Ohio, is the latest city to debate the legality of gardens, even if the two sides can’t agree on what is up for discussion.

Resident Tony Dolan claims that the right to garden on a homeowner’s property is at stake. The Columbiana city council at one point considered a proposal that would have restricted gardens to back yards, although that language was struck.   Continue reading “Mayor: Anything Not Permitted Under Law Is Now Banned (And That Includes Gardens)”

In recent months, federal and state officials have cited at least eight Chinese students at the UA for fraudulently obtaining resident hunting licenses, and also seized from them a number of firearms obtained using those licenses.

A high-ranking federal official told the Star his agency has no evidence of “malicious intent” by the eight students. Nevertheless, the purchases reveal what officials say is a potentially troubling vulnerability in federal and Arizona firearms laws, which exempt international students and other nonimmigrant visa holders with hunting licenses from prohibitions on gun ownership.   Continue reading “Feds seize guns of 8 Chinese students at University of Arizona”

Nearly 40 years after the world was jolted by the birth of the first test-tube baby, a new revolution in reproductive technology is on the horizon — and it promises to be far more controversial than in vitro fertilization ever was.

Within a decade or two, researchers say, scientists will likely be able to create a baby from human skin cells that have been coaxed to grow into eggs and sperm and used to create embryos to implant in a womb.

WikiLeaks has published a new batch of the ongoing Vault 7 leak, detailing a spyware framework – which “provides remote beacon and loader capabilities on target computers” – allegedly being used by the CIA that works against every version of Microsoft’s Windows operating systems, from Windows XP to Windows 10.

U.S. investment bank Goldman Sachs says there’s an almost one in three chance of Canada’s housing market going bust in the near future.

The warning comes with a fairly large proviso, however, in that the bank’s view a housing “bust” is based on the equivalent of a house price decline of as little as five per cent. A larger correction is on the table but in Goldman’s eyes, even a relatively minor drop of five per cent would qualify.   Continue reading “Canada’s housing boom has 30% chance of going bust, Goldman Sachs says”

WEB Notes: This is truly disturbing, Christianity is/has being ripped from this nation. The young man cannot say a prayer at the graduation ceremony? Why is this offensive? If you do not believe in God, then his speech means nothing to you. No harm done. That has never been the point. The point has always been to remove God from the public arena. Why? Without God the people are more easily controlled by what men say as they do not have a guiding light in their path. Without God we have no direction. Without God anything goes as there is no moral compass. This young man cannot say a prayer, but drag queens can indoctrinate our children in our public tax payer funded libraries. This is insanity, the higher degree of insanity is why do we still allow it?

DENVER (AP) – Colorado’s governor on Friday pardoned a Cuban immigrant for an armed robbery he committed 19 years ago in an effort stave off the man’s deportation after immigration authorities detained him following a judge’s ruling that he should no longer be imprisoned.

The pardon from Gov. John Hickenlooper, a Democrat, was the latest twist in the saga of Rene Lima-Marin, 38. He came to the U.S. as a toddler as part of the 1980 Mariel boat lift from Cuba and had legal residency until it was revoked following his 2000 criminal conviction. Lima-Marin was sentenced to 98 years in prison for the robbery. But he was mistakenly paroled from Colorado state prison in 2008.   Continue reading “Colorado governor pardons felon to stave off deportation”
