ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Buoyed by his characteristically soaring spirit, the surging crowd around him and a pair of canes, Pete Seeger walked through the streets of Manhattan leading an Occupy Wall Street protest in 2011.

Though he would later admit the attention embarrassed him, the moment brought back many feelings and memories as he instructed yet another generation of young people how to effect change through song and determination — as he had done over the last seven decades as a history-sifting singer and ever-so-gentle rabble-rouser.   Continue reading “Folk singer, activist Pete Seeger dies in NY”

ROME — A relic containing drops of late Pope John Paul II’s blood has been stolen, and Italian police speculate the thieves may want it for satanic rites.

The vial was stolen from the Church of San Pietro della Ienca in the mountainous Abruzzo region in central Italy on Saturday. Pope John Paul II, who died in 2005, loved to go on skiing holidays in the area.

A relic with a vial containing the late Pope John Paul II’s blood is seen in 2012.   Continue reading “Vial of Pope John Paul II’s blood stolen from Italian church”

Chicago. IL – Testimony given by an undercover officer in a state terrorism prosecution in Illinois sheds new light on the Chicago Police Department’s surveillance of dissidents, including what appears to be a targeted campaign to keep an eye on the activities of people who call themselves anarchists.

Journalist Kevin Gosztola is in Chicago covering the trial of the NATO 3, protesters who may have been set up by undercover Chicago police officers and are facing state terrorism and felony conspiracy charges. Gosztola’s reporting provides new insight into the CPD’s modern day red squad.   Continue reading “NATO 3 trial exposes illegal police surveillance tactics used to discourage and frighten activists”

The board of the New York state teachers union this weekend unanimously withdrew its support for the Common Core standards as they have been implemented — a major blow for Common Core advocates who have been touting support from teachers as proof that the standards will succeed in classrooms nationwide.

“We’ll have to be the first to say it’s failed,” said Richard Iannuzzi, president of New York State United Teachers.   Continue reading “New York teachers turn on Common Core”

President Obama, in the first of potentially many executive actions tied to his State of the Union address, will unilaterally increase the minimum wage for workers under new federal contracts to $10.10 an hour, from $7.25, in an effort to build momentum for a minimum wage hike for all Americans.

The executive order, which has been championed by progressive Democratic lawmakers, applies to all contractors performing services for the federal government and would effect more than 2 million employees, according to an administration official.    Continue reading “Obama to sign executive order raising minimum wage for federal contractors”

Codex Gigas, otherwise known as ‘the Devil’s Bible’ is the largest and probably one of the strangest manuscripts in the world. It is so large that it is said to have taken more than 160 animal skins to make it and takes at least two people to lift it. It measures approximately 1 metre in length.

According to legend, the medieval manuscript was made out of a pact with the ‘devil’, which is why it is sometimes referred to as the Devil’s Bible. It was written in Latin during the 13th century AD, and although the origin of the manuscript is unknown, a note in the manuscript states that it was pawned in the monastery at Sedlec in 1295.   Continue reading “Codex Gigas (the Devil’s Bible) – the largest manuscript in the world”

Barack Obama is America’s own Man of Steal, and he’ll prove it again when he pontificates on the State of the Union on Tuesday.  The Over/Under for the number of times he utters the first person pronoun is 100.  Savvy bettors are, of course, playing the Over.

This years SOTU speech will  be historic in other ways as well.  It will likely mark the first time a sitting U.S. president (if that is what Obama ever was, considering his proclivity to rule by secrecy and decree) has dared issue a more open call for communism (i.e. income equality).   Continue reading “The SOTU Is FUBAR”

Less than two weeks ago, FEMA was seeking contractors who could supply biohazard disposal facilities, tarps and housing units. They have also recently been on the look out for companies who are able to provide food and drinks on a grand scale, presumably to the displaced who are living under the tarps or in the housing units.

Moving on a little, they have now realized they have no way to get all the displaced/forcibly removed people from their homes to the camps housing units, so they are looking for transport companies willing to work on an indefinite time-scale, indefinite quantity basis, to facilitate possible large scale evacuations.   Continue reading “FEMA Soliciting Companies For ‘Motor Coach Evacuation of the General Population’”
