Before It’s News – by N. Morgan

A woman died in jail, from lack of medical care. The guards refused to giver her medication she needed. She was in jail for a small amount of marijuana. She was left to die, unattended, by sadistic, jail guards. This is a continual problem in the prison/jail system. When will enough be enough? Even if these people are in jail. they still have rights! I would also point out, she was a non-violent offender and shouldn’t have been there anyway.

Two sisters returning to Kansas from a trip to Colorado were pulled over on Monday for speeding. After being stopped, the Kansas police officer found a small amount of marijuana in the car. As will surely happen to many people in the near future, the sisters purchased marijuana legally in Colorado but made the mistake of bringing it across state lines.   Continue reading “Woman Arrested For Small Amount Of Marijuana Dies In Jail After Guards Deny Her Prescription Medicine”

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Highway access to the city at the end of the trans-Alaska pipeline has been cut off indefinitely by avalanches, including one that dammed a river and created a lake up to a half-mile long across the roadway in a 300-foot wide mountain canyon.

State Department of Transportation officials said Monday that the snow slide about 12 miles outside Valdez on the Richardson Highway cannot be cleared until water behind the snow drains. The water in Keystone Canyon is too deep on the upstream side for crews to approach the snow dam. Officials fear that digging from the downstream side could trigger a dangerous surge of water and harm work crews.   Continue reading “Avalanches cut off only road to Alaska city”

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — The New Jersey Legislature on Monday merged what had been separate but parallel investigations into allegations that Gov. Chris Christie’s aides manufactured traffic jams as political payback.

The state Assembly and Senate voted to establish a joint bipartisan committee with power to subpoena people and correspondence related to the traffic scandal and other matters. The panel will continue the investigation into allegations that top Christie aides blocked two traffic lanes approaching the George Washington Bridge, creating hours-long backups in the town at the base of the span to send a message to the Democratic mayor there.   Continue reading “NJ Democrats combine traffic jam probes”

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. government is looking at ways to prevent anyone from spying on its own surveillance of Americans’ phone records.

As the Obama administration considers shifting the collection of those records from the National Security Agency to requiring that they be stored at phone companies or elsewhere, it’s quietly funding research to prevent phone company employees or eavesdroppers from seeing whom the U.S. is spying on, The Associated Press has learned.   Continue reading “US looks at ways to prevent spying on its spying”

Trey RadelMail.com

MIAMI (AP) — After going through rehab for cocaine and alcohol abuse and pledging that he’d work through his problems to regain his Florida constituents’ trust, Trey Radel’s short career in Congress ended with a whimper Monday.

Facing a House ethics investigation, a growing group of primary challengers and the steady drumbeat of a Republican establishment calling for him to step down, the 37-year-old, who pleaded guilty to cocaine-possession charges last year, quietly tendered his resignation letter.   Continue reading “Fla. congressman to resign after cocaine scandal”

Top Democrat Drops a Truthbomb on ObamaCare After Announcing His RetirementIndependent Journal Review – by Bubba Atkinson 

After 23 years in the House, Virginia’s Democratic Rep. Jim Moran announced his retirement, and now he appears to be breaking ranks with Democrats since he no longer has to run on ObamaCare:

“I’m afraid that the millennials, if you will, are less likely to sign up,” Rep. Moran admitted to radio station WAMU 88.5. “I don’t think we’re going to get enough young people signing up to make this bill work as it was intended to financially,”   Continue reading “Top Democrat Drops a Truthbomb on ObamaCare After Announcing His Retirement”

Tallahassee, January 27, 2014– The Florida legislature will consider a bill that would prohibit any state agency from cooperating with enforcement of federal gun laws.

Rep. Dan Eagle (R-Cape Coral) introduced HB733 on Monday. The Second Amendment Protection Act declares that no agent of the state or its political subdivisions may participate with or assist federal agents in the enforcement of unconstitutional federal firearms laws, or provide material support of any kind to federal agents in the enforcement of these laws. State agents and/or contractors who knowingly participate in or provide support for the enforcement of federal firearms laws would be subject to dismissal.   Continue reading “New Florida Legislation Would Essentially Nullify Federal Gun Laws”

Almost two decades ago, I wrote in Dare To Prepare about dire consequences from mega-quakes in the New Madrid Seismic Zone. After Dare To Prepare’s 1st Ed. was published, scientists retracted their worries and pronounced the New Madrid area ‘dead’. It was safe. What a different tune they’re singing now.

“Previous studies have suggested that it may be shutting down, based on GPS readings that showed little strain accumulation at the surface. Other research came to the same conclusion by blaming ongoing quake activity on aftershocks from the 1800s, which would essentially relieve strain on the fault.   Continue reading “How Many Will Die in the New Madrid Earthquake?”

A shortage of propane heating fuel during a brutal U.S. cold snap this month threatens to sharpen the year’s most urgent energy policy debate – how much of its newfound shale oil and gas bounty should America export?

Millions felt the pinch last week as another wave of biting, bitter cold strained already low propane supplies in the Midwest, causing prices to surge three-fold over two weeks to record highs and forcing suppliers to ration deliveries.   Continue reading “Analysis: Propane freeze squeeze may harden resistance to U.S. oil exports”

Angry BirdsThe Guardian – by James Ball

The National Security Agency and its UK counterpart GCHQ have been developing capabilities to take advantage of “leaky” smartphone apps, such as the wildly popular Angry Birds game, that transmit users’ private information across the internet, according to top secret documents.

The data pouring onto communication networks from the new generation of iPhone and Android apps ranges from phone model and screen size to personal details such as age, gender and location. Some apps, the documents state, can share users’ most sensitive information such as sexual orientation – and one app recorded in the material even sends specific sexual preferences such as whether or not the user may be a swinger.   Continue reading “NSA and GCHQ target ‘leaky’ phone apps like Angry Birds to scoop user data”

Amy Glass is clueless and apparently rather bitter.

Amy Glass is a feminist blogger that I’d never heard of before someone sent me a link to this post. Her bio includes links to such gems as I Use My Sexuality To Get Ahead At Work and Hillary Clinton Has Given Just As Much To This World As The Stay At Home Wife In My 11am Yogalates Class.  She also can’t spell very well, but it would be catty to say that. (oops)

I read her arrogant post called ”I Look Down On Young Women With Husbands And Kids And I’m Not Sorry” thinking that there had to be a punchline, some merit, some deep social concept that I had heretofore been missing.   Continue reading “I Look Down on Clueless Bitter Feminists and I’m Not Sorry”

The explosion happened near Otterburne, Manitoba, about 25 km (15.5 miles) south of the provincial capital, Winnipeg. The area was evacuated as a precaution, said the National Energy Board, which oversees parts of Canada’s energy industry.   Continue reading “TransCanada gas pipeline explodes in Manitoba, none hurt”
