Yet another Florida nuclear plant may be in trouble.

More than 3,700 tubes that help cool a nuclear reactor at Florida Power & Light’s St. Lucie facility exhibit wear. Most other similar plants have between zero and a few hundred.

Worst case: A tube bursts and spews radioactive fluid. That’s what happened at the San Onofre plant in California two years ago. The plant shut down forever because it would have cost too much to fix.   Continue reading “Cooling tubes at FPL St. Lucie nuke plant show significant wear”

The CDC has been shunning the correlations between thimerosal and neurological disorders for a very long time. Although the FDA gave a two year deadline to remove the mercury based preservative from vaccines after the neurotoxin was banned in 1999, it still remains to this day in 60 percent of flu vaccines. A vaccine industry watchdog has now obtained CDC documents that show statistically significant risks of autism associated with the vaccine preservative, something the CDC denies even when confronted with their own data.   Continue reading “PhD Scientist and Biochemist Reveals Hidden CDC Documents Showing Thimerosal In Vaccines Increase Neurologic Disorders”

President Obama’s Kansas speech is a remarkable document. In calling for more government controls, more taxation, more collectivism, he has two paragraphs that give the show away. Take a look at them.

there is a certain crowd in Washington who, for the last few decades, have said, let’s respond to this economic challenge with the same old tune. “The market will take care of everything,” they tell us. If we just cut more regulations and cut more taxes–especially for the wealthy–our economy will grow stronger. Sure, they say, there will be winners and losers. But if the winners do really well, then jobs and prosperity will eventually trickle down to everybody else. And, they argue, even if prosperity doesn’t trickle down, well, that’s the price of liberty.   Continue reading “Obama To Americans: You Don’t Deserve To Be Free”

Austin’s chief of police has had a bad week. First, a few of his cops were videotaped roughly arresting a woman for the crime of jaywalking. Then, in defense of his officers, he said that at least they aren’t raping people.

It started when police observed a jogger crossing a street against the light. When they stopped her, she apparently “failed to present ID properly.” Now, at this point the cops had two choices. Let it slide or brutally drag a screaming young woman to a police car and place her under arrest. They chose the latter.   Continue reading “Austin Police Chief Says Residents Should Just be Happy They’re Not Sexually Assaulted by Cops”

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — A federal proposal to clean up the smoke wafting from wood-burning stoves has sparked a backlash from some rural residents, lawmakers and manufacturers who fear it could close the damper on one of the oldest ways of warming homes on cold winter days.

Proposed regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency would significantly reduce the amount of particle pollution allowed from the smokestacks of new residential wood-powered heaters.   Continue reading “Federal wood burning rule prompts rural backlash”

Some of the issues that most divided the nation during the first five years of President Barack Obama’s presidency — the reform of the American health care system and gun control — are now on the docket of the United States’ highest court. Plus there are cases brought by for-profit companies — the craft store chain Hobby Lobby Stores Inc. and Conestoga Wood Specialties Corp. — putting the spotlight on the First Amendment’s freedom of religion clause, with the plaintiffs objecting to the Affordable Care Act’s requirement that companies subject to the employer mandate must provide workers with policies covering contraception. The Second Amendment has also been placed in the limelight thanks to lawsuits that have been appealed to the Supreme Court.   Continue reading “Former Supreme Court Justice: Second Amendment Must Be Changed”

What is “Good Behavior”? How Does “Good Behavior” apply to both federal and state Judges?

How do “We the People” know what is required of the judges of this land, and when they are doing the duty assigned to them in a lawful way? More importantly, how do “We the people” know when the judges of either federal or the states are not doing their duty in a lawful manner, when they MUST be removed from office? What does it take to remove a judge from office when they are not using “Good Behavior”? Why is it important that “We the people” understand the difference between judges who use “Good Behavior” in the courtrooms and those who do not?   Continue reading “Judges And “Good Behavior” In The Courtroom”

“Let the American youth never forget, that they possess a noble inheritance, bought by the toils, and sufferings and blood of their ancestors; and capable, if wisely improved, and faithfully guarded, of transmitting to their latest posterity all the substantial blessings of life, the peaceful enjoyment of liberty, property, religion, and independence…Republics are created by the virtue, public spirit, and intelligence of the citizens. They fall, when the wise are banished from the public councils, because they dare to be honest and the profligate are rewarded, because they flatter the people, in order to betray them.”   Continue reading “Governmental Emergency Powers”

Our government, the Constitution of the United States of America

Second Amendment:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed

The Basics of “Who” (are the Militia):   Continue reading ““What is, Who Are The Militia, And Why Is It Important?”

“Missouri’s SB613 counts as what could be the strongest defense against federal encroachments on the right to keep and bear arms ever considered at the state level.”

This is good, but what everyone seems to not understand is that WE ALREADY HAVE THE LAWS IN PLACE STOPPING FEDERAL ENCROACHMENT AND UNLAWFUL ACTS – the US Constitution and each state’s Constitution, our republican form of government. That the laws – old and new are not now, nor have they ever been, the problem.   Continue reading “The Problem With the Constitutions – State and Federal, is Enforcement”

Apparently all it takes to kick the world out of a secular recession and back into growth mode, is for several dozen finance ministers and central bankers to sit down and sign on the dotted line, agreeing it has to be done. That is the take home message from the just concluded latest G-20 meeting in Syndey, where said leaders agreed that it is time to finally grow the world economy by 2% over the next 5 years.   Continue reading “G-20 Agrees To Grow Global Economy By $2 Trillion, Has No Idea How To Actually Achieve It”

A man was jailed after failing to pay his child support.

During sentencing, Judge Abednico Ndebele said that being unemployed is not an excuse for not taking care of children.

Unemployed men were surprised when Ndebele said that they should stop having sex, as it could lead to pregnancy and not paying child support.   Continue reading “Zimbabwe: Judge orders unemployed men to stop having sex as they cannot pay child support”
