In the middle of December 2012, the Customs and Border Protection Agency presented a pre-solicitation for 50,000,000 rounds of .40 S&W caliber ammunition, ostensibly for training. The contract would provide a total of 250,000,000 rounds over the life of the 5-year contract. The contract was to be issued on 20 January 2013. CPB, an agency within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has included the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency with this solicitation.   Continue reading “Another 250 Million Rounds Of Ammunition For An Agency On A Bullet Diet”

On Tuesday, the operator of the Fukushima nuclear power plant said that over 1,000 tons of contaminated water was dumped into the sea after a typhoon hit the area.

Typhoon Man-yi hit Japan on Monday, causing heavy rains and uncontrollable floods.

“Workers measured the radioactive levels of the water collected in the enclosure walls, pumping it back into tanks when the levels were high,” said a TEPCO official.   Continue reading “1,130 Tons of Contaminated Fukushima Water Dumped in Sea After Typhoon”

Verizon's diabolical plan to turn the Web into pay-per-viewInfoWorld – by Bill Synder

Think of all the things that tick you off about cable TV. Along with brainless programming and crummy customer service, the very worst aspect of it is forced bundling. You can’t pay just for the couple of dozen channels you actually watch. Instead, you have to pay for a couple of hundred channels, because the good stuff is scattered among a number of overstuffed packages.

Now, imagine that the Internet worked that way. You’d hate it, of course. But that’s the direction that Verizon, with the support of many wired and wireless carriers, would like to push the Web. That’s not hypothetical. The country’s No. 1 carrier is fighting in court to end the Federal Communications Commission’s policy of Net neutrality, a move that would open the gates to a whole new — and wholly bad — economic model on the Web.   Continue reading “Verizon’s diabolical plan to turn the Web into pay-per-view”

Oklahoma state law enforcement officials have pulled two vehicles from a lake that may contain the bodies of six people listed as missing for decades.

The Daily Elk Citian reported that the vehicles — which were recovered from Foss Lake in western Oklahoma Tuesday afternoon — appear to match a Camaro missing with three Sayre teenagers since 1970 and an older Chevrolet with two Canute residents missing since the late 1950s or early 1960s.   Continue reading “Authorities find 6 bodies in submerged cars in Oklahoma”

An estimated one thousand people marched from the United Nations through the Upper East Side yesterday to demand a Robin Hood Tax and protest the growing inequality gap.

At least a dozen protesters were arrested as the march blocked traffic. An NYPD spokesman said the department did not have a specific number of arrests, but one of the detainees was New York State Senator Brad Hoylman, per this Getty photo.   Continue reading “A Thousand New Yorkers March For Tax On Wall Street”

Occupy Wall Street’s terrible twos began this morning with a familiar set of scenes: protesters holding signs. Protesters glaring at cops. Cops glaring at protesters. Dozens of metal barricades lining the streets between them. Everyone pausing to look in unison at the Hipster Cop and his improbably tight pants. After a rowdy first anniversary last year that began on the wrong foot with some two dozen arrests, this morning’s march looked downright serene by comparison. The only real moment of tension came on the steps of Wall Street’s National Federal Hall Memorial, when the police and park rangers decided together, in a seemingly impromptu sort of way, that only one side of the monument’s broad stone steps could be used for free speech purposes.   Continue reading ““The First Amendment Steps Are Over There:” With a Heavy Police Presence, Occupy’s Second Birthday Begins”

Two thugs wanted in the abduction of a 14-year-old girl during an armed home invasion in Georgia are now demanding $10,000 for her return, according to local reports.

The family of Ayvani Hope Perez rallied Tuesday to raise money to meet the men’s demands, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports, after the teen was forced from her Ellenwood home at gun point around 2 that morning.   Continue reading “Georgia kidnappers reportedly demand $10,000 ransom for release of girl”

Russia will provide the UN Security Council with data proving that the chemical weapons near Damascus were used by the opposition, Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov said. The materials were handed to Russia by the Syrian government of Bashar Assad.

We have plenty of reports on chemical weapons use, which indicate that the opposition regularly resorts to provocations in order to trigger strikes and intervention against Syria,” Lavrov said. “There’s a lot of data. It’s widely available on the Internet. This data is presented in the report, which our experts put together in association with the use of chemical weapons in Aleppo in March this year. There’s also plenty of data on the incidents that occurred in August in Ghouta, near Damascus.”   Continue reading “Russia to provide UNSC with data for chem weapons’ use by Syrian rebels”

Apparently, her son was involved in a shooting that nearly killed two toddlers. Police have detained a total of five people for their possible involvement in the shooting, but the mother of one of the suspects claims her son is innocent for a very silly reason.   Continue reading “Mom Claims Son Is Innocent Because “Gay People” Don’t Shoot Kids”

“The deer may show no outward symptoms of disease,” said Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks biologist Vickie Edwards. “People are seeing healthy looking deer fall over dead.”   Continue reading “More than 100 deer found dead west of Missoula, Montana”

On January 23, 1961, a B-52 packing a pair of Mark 39 hydrogen bombs suffered a refueling snafu and went into an uncontrolled spin over North Carolina. In the cockpit of the rapidly disintegrating bomber (only one crew member bailed out safely) was a lanyard attached to the bomb-release mechanism. Intense G-forces tugged hard at it and unleashed the nukes, which, at four megatons, were 250 times more powerful than the weapon that leveled Hiroshima. One of them “failed safe” and plummeted to the ground unarmed. The other weapon’s failsafe mechanisms—the devices designed to prevent an accidental detonation—were subverted one by one, as Eric Schlosser recounts in his new book, Command and Control:   Continue reading “A Sneak Peek at Eric Schlosser’s Terrifying New Book on Nuclear Weapons”

One of the many essential doctrines of the Talmud is that Jews are allowed to cheat and deceive the goyim for the purpose of advancing Jewish interest. According to Baba Kamma 11a, “Jews may use lies to circumvent a Gentile.”

This is permitted because Gentiles, according to the Talmud, are “outside the protection of the law and God has ‘exposed their money to Israel.’”[1] Let me illustrate this point from experience.   Continue reading “The NSA Is Ideologically and Deceptively Talmudic (Part II)”

Yesterday, I referenced a USA Today piece which cited a federal law-enforcement source (off the record), who states that Aaron Alexis, the accused shooter, cleared a Navy Yard security checkpoint in his car. After parking in the lot, he got into an argument and opened fire on one or two people. He then entered the building where he went on a killing spree.

So did Alexis shoot his way past security guards at the building’s separate checkpoint? Why weren’t the guards waiting for him just outside the building with their weapons drawn, after he, Alexis, had already shot people in the parking lot?   Continue reading “Navy Yard shooting: Aaron Alexis narrative crumbling”
