Sweat like a pig? Now you can smell like one too: literally.

A Seattle company has introduced bacon deodorant, Power Bacon, which goes on sale today in a handy deodorant stick. Try not to sweat too much while you’re wearing it though, or you’ll be covered in unappetizing bacon grease.

In a world filled with bacon-flavored beer, bacon-wrapped cars and bacon bandages, it would be an understatement to say we’re obsessed with the cured pork product. One 105-year-old Texan even credited it for her longevity earlier this year, telling a reporter, “I love bacon. I eat it everyday.”   Continue reading “How to Stay Single Forever: Wear This New Bacon-Scented Deodorant”

One of the more offensive duties of being an investigative journalist is taking out the trash — exposing liars, fraudsters, con artists and scammers for the people they truly are. Each time we investigate a sociopath, we find that they always have a little cult group following of spellbound worshippers who consider that particular sociopath to be a “guru” or “prophet.”

Sociopaths are masters at influence and deception. Very little of what they say actually checks out in terms of facts or reality, but they’re extremely skillful at making the things they say sound believable, even if they’re just making them up out of thin air. Here, I’m going to present quotes and videos of some legendary sociopaths who convinced everyday people to participate in mass suicides. And then I’m going to demonstrate how and why similar sociopaths are operating right now… today.   Continue reading “How to spot a sociopath – 10 red flags that could save you from being swept under the influence of a charismatic nut job”

Now – not after the tar sands spigot is turned on – is the time to support the efforts of courageous Texas landowners who could stop Keystone XL’s administration-approved southern leg in its tracks.

Twenty-five environmental leaders recently signed on to an open letter to President Obama urging him to avoid any “deal-making” with the Canadian government and to reject a presidential permit for Keystone XL’s proposed northern leg. As the letter remarked: “Building Keystone XL will expand production in the tar sands, and that reality is not compatible with serious efforts to battle climate change.”   Continue reading “Obama Must Be Called Out, Not Coddled, on Keystone XL Bait-and-Switch”

A Texas farmer has won an entry of default against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which failed to respond to a federal lawsuit claiming it illegally granted environmental permits to TransCanada Corp. (TRP)’s Keystone XL pipeline.

Michael Bishop, a farmer in Douglass, about 150 miles northeast of Houston, said he will ask U.S. Magistrate Judge Keith Giblin, in Lufkin, Texas, to invalidate the pipeline’s permits and order the Army Corps to conduct public hearings that it skipped before issuing water-crossing permits to Keystone, which will transport Canadian tar-sands crude to refineries on the Texas Gulf coast.   Continue reading “Texas Farmer Wins Entry of Default in Keystone Lawsuit”

J.P. Morgan Electronic Financial Services is the country’s single biggest food stamp services provider, and at the same time is giving increasingly large donations to the very politicians in charge of the food stamp program.

This common incestuous relationship, along with the food stamp chaos recently seen across the country, highlights the corruption of America’s “ruling class,” charges Boston University professor emeritus and bestselling author Angelo Codevilla.   Continue reading “How big bankers profit from food stamps”

World Events and the Bible

(Voice of Russia) – According to the US Census Bureau more than 50 million of Americans are experiencing poverty and struggling with major financial issues. The worst part is that the situation is not becoming better. If to look on the living standard, the family of four is expected to spend at least $23,050 per year, everything less than that is considered poor.

A family living in a rural state usually spends about $18,000 with mortgage, a family living in California with mortgage house is likely to spend at least $35,000 to maintain a very simple lifestyle. The same research proved that the number is not coming down, concluding that 47 million Americans are below the poverty level. This number stayed the same for the last three years, showing worse result than in 2009.   Continue reading “US Census Bureau claims more than 50,000,000 Americans suffer from poverty”

November 11 is Veterans Day in the United States.  It (and the Sunday preceding) has become a day of holy worship for many.  Churches as well as today’s temples of worship – the sports arena – will bear witness to this glorious event.  The throngs will cheer uncontrollably.

They cheer for their heroes, those who have died so they could live free – free to pay a 50% portion to the state, free to have every form of communication monitored, free to be forced into all sorts of activities and prohibited from many others, free to turn their children over for brainwashing, free to be seen naked before flying.   Continue reading “The Required Blood Sacrifice”

The growing role of big government in our lives presents a continual attack on the cherished and hallmark American values of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. In no area is this expansion more troubling than the criminal justice system. Actions defined as crimes have proliferated to the point that the average American now inadvertently commits an estimated three felonies a day. This explosion of criminal statutes has little to do with protecting our communities; it is simply another symptom of the expansive reach of big government.   Continue reading “Criminalizing America”
