Care to start a bank run?

Uh, no, that’s illegal. But according to an economist at the same school our Illegal Alien in Chief attended, Harvard University, it might be wise to do so. The PBS article from yesterday should cause everyone to take a moment and pause to reflect:   Continue reading “Now You Can Panic: Economist Withdraws All of His Money from Bank of America”

It is just after New Year’s when 61-year-old unemployed software executive John Walters and I meet for coffee. We’re there to discuss his interest in moving from the “straight” world of corporate enterprise software sales to the rough and tumble, still embryonic legal cannabis industry.

John, a tall bespeckled northwesterner with close cropped hair, begins by telling me about a recent holiday gathering that he and his wife attended in their Shoreline, WA, neighborhood. Recreational marijuana is legal in Washington, but the social protocols of its use remain uncertain. “Do you fire up at the party?” John ponders. “Do you offer your host a box of joints?” The nuances of integrating legal marijuana use into polite society — and business life — are being worked out in living rooms and board rooms across Colorado and Washington.   Continue reading “Faces Of Legal Marijuana: Unemployed Software Salesman Goes For The Green…Rush”

Leaking MCHN tanks at Freedom Industries are being off loaded into tanker trucks on January 10, 2014 in Charleston, West Virginia.(AFP Photo / Tom Hindman)RT News

Weeks after spilling about 10,000 gallons of chemicals into West Virginia’s Elk River, chemical maker Freedom Industries reported another toxic leak Thursday at their facility in Charleston. Yet none of the material has reached the river, officials said.

Contractors for Freedom Industries hit an underground pipe with an excavator Thursday night, unleashing water and the same crude MCHM chemical that leaked from the company’s tank farm into the Elk River on Jan. 9. The earlier incident ultimately spoiled drinking water for around 300,000 nearby residents.   Continue reading “West Virginia’s Freedom Industries suffers another chemical spill”

The Transportation Security Agency was aware that, before they were even introduced, the full-body scanners used at airport security checkpoints were flawed, according to a former TSA agent who alleges employees regularly peered and laughed at travelers.

Jason Edward Harrington, who spent years for the TSA as he studied for a creative writing degree, wrote a long piece in Politico detailing the ineptitude and casual jokes that often came at the expense of the agency’s own inability to prevent an airplane hijacking.   Continue reading “‘Useless’ TSA scanners provided endless fodder for employees, former agent alleges”

The US State Department raised few objections to the environmental impact of the Keystone XL pipeline in a report released Friday, saying that the project won’t impact the pace of Canadian oil sands development and its contribution to climate change.

While the State Department took no position on the project and stopped short of recommending if the line should be built, it did claim the pipeline is more environmentally sound than other options.   Continue reading “Keystone pipeline won’t hurt environment much, US govt report says”

Mass starvation, disease and hopelessness abound in the Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp in Damascus. Although a UN agency has managed to make its first food aid delivery to the rebel-held camp in weeks, many people are on the brink of starvation.

I smell trouble. The tribe is surely trying to focus attention on the superbowl. I’ll send more after this but this is what I found out concerning the ‘white powder’ being sent to the superbowl hotels and what-not. Certainly didn’t sit well with me.

While I think they are gearing up for a false-flag somewhere, think the superbowl is a total distraction. Maybe they’re testing reactions etc. Who knows. Here’s what I’ve pieced together so far.   Continue reading “Super Bowl Powder Bullshit”

Terror Groups Reportedly Hiding Missiles, Military Assets in Apartment Buildings, Mosques and Water ReservoirsThe Blaze – by Sharona Schwartz

Islamist militants are using the cover of residential dwellings and civilian facilities – such as water reservoirs – in which to hide their military assets in an effort to prevent future attack by the Israeli military, according to a senior Israeli official and an Israeli media report.

Commander of the Israeli Air Force Major-General Amir Eshel said on Wednesday that the Shiite terror group Hezbollah has placed “thousands” of military bases inside apartment buildings in Lebanon and that Israel would not be deterred from striking those buildings, even if civilians end up being killed.   Continue reading “Israel’s Excuse for Bombing Lebonan”

We come across tons of interesting patents each and every day, but recently none have caused as much concern and curiosity as this one. Google recently filed a patent for a system that identifies when and where a “mob” event takes place and sends multimedia alerts to relevant parties. The patents are actually titled “Mob Source Phone Video Collaboration” and “Inferring Events Based On Mob Sourced Video“.

No… not that mob. In this case a “mob” is essentially an activity or event attracting an abnormal amount of attention in the form of video recording and picture taking. Here’s a quick blurb from the patent description:   Continue reading “New Google patent suggests automatically sending your videos and photos to law enforcement”
