Socialist, Communist, and McCarthy-era blacklisted writers appear on the U.S. Department of Labor’s (DOL) new “Books That Shaped Work in America” list celebrating the department’s 100th anniversary.

A Socialist leader, two Stalin apologists, two blacklisted ’50s screenwriters, and a suspected Marxist are included on the list, which DOL compiled based on recommendations from various figures in the community. Labor Secretary Thomas Perez described the program as an “online book club.”   Continue reading “Socialist, Communist authors make Obama administration reading list”

Drivers could possibly be pulled over for snacking, smoking or putting on make-up behind the wheel under a bill that has been advanced in the New Jersey Assembly.

The proposed law would fine drivers found to “engage in any activity unrelated to the operation of a motor vehicle in a manner that interferes with the safe operation of the vehicle.”   Continue reading “New Jersey Proposal Bans Snacking, Smoking Behind the Wheel”

All those gun control laws sure seem to be working.  Any day now, Oakland will be as safe as Chicago.  When they catch the shooters, no doubt they will have all passed a background check to get their guns.

What they are not telling you here is the 28 miles is from Fresno to Madera. One crap hole to another and the cost to do just the dirt work(not including cars, rails, power or stations) was going to be (ready?) 80 billion. Guess who’s company got the contract? Feinstein’s husbands company.

Believe it or not, the first cold fusion power plant is now available to pre-order. The E-Cat 1MW Plant, which comes in a standard shipping container, can produce one megawatt of thermal energy, using low-energy nuclear reactions (LENR) — a process, often known as cold fusion, that fuses nickel and hydrogen into copper, producing energy 100,000 times more efficiently than combustion. It sounds like E-Cat is now taking orders for delivery in early 2014, priced fairly reasonably at $1.5 million. Has cold fusion — the answer to all our energy needs — finally made its way to market?   Continue reading “1-megawatt cold fusion power plant now available – yours for just $1.5 million”

Pastor Aubrey Shines hails from Chicago, much like our Fearless Leader, Barack Obama. But that’s where the resemblance ends. Unlike Obama, Pastor Shines has had the courage to point fingers in the deadly trend of “knockout” that is causing injuries and death across the country. In an opinion piece, published on The Blaze, Shines wrote:

The more the media reports these attacks a few things become clear. First, the perpetrators are young black men. Second, the victims are white and most often Jewish. Because the victims are white, the game is also referred to as polar bear hunting. Third, there has been radio silence from black national leaders condemning the acts. Al Sharpton finally condemned the game at one of his weekly National Action Network meetings. But the outrage pales in comparison to the outrage that Sharpton and his fellow Race Warriors are able to muster when it benefits them financially and politically.   Continue reading “Finally: Black Pastor Says That If Obama Had a Son, He’d Look a Lot Like the Knockout Thugs”

The US government made enough profit from student loans in the last year to provide full Pell Grants of over $5,600 to 7.3 million students. But, like many government financial issues, accounting methods complicate the story.

The $41.3 billion student-loan profit for the 2013 fiscal year – which ended on Sept. 30 – is actually down by $3.6 billion from 2012, but still enough to out-profit all but two global companies, Exxon Mobil and Apple.    Continue reading “US government “profits” from student loans in 2013 surpassed $41 billion”

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania has become the first city in the United States to officially ban the use of 3D printers to manufacture firearms, only six months after a Texas-based company published digital blueprints for a homemade handgun.

The 10-member City Council announced last week that its members unanimously approved a first-of-its-kind measure that makes it illegal for anyone within the city to “use a three-dimensional printer to create any firearm, or any piece or part thereof, unless such person possesses a license to manufacture firearms under federal law.”   Continue reading “First ban in the country: 3D-printed guns now illegal in Philadelphia”

The parents of a Cedar Creek High student who is in a coma after he was shocked by a Taser at the school this week are fearful he could die, a lawyer for the family said Friday.

Adam Loewy, who is representing 17-year-old Noe Nino de Rivera’s family, said the teen has a traumatic brain injury as a result of falling and hitting his head after a Bastrop County sheriff’s deputy shocked him with a Taser during a fight at the school Wednesday.   Continue reading “Lawyer: Family of Cedar Creek student shocked by Taser worried he will die”

You know that when you’re getting chased by a tiger, you’re almost in a car accident, your “to do” list is overflowing, and you’re burning the candle at both ends, your body’s “fight-or-flight” stress responses are going to get triggered. But you might not know what else will trigger stress responses in your body, and it’s important that you do!

As I explain in Mind Over Medicine: Scientific Proof That You Can Heal Yourself, the body has natural self-repair mechanisms that can fight cancer, prevent infection, repair broken proteins, protect your coronary arteries, and retard aging. But whenever the nervous system is in “fight-or-flight,” the body’s natural self-repair mechanisms are disabled!   Continue reading “10 Surprising Things That Trigger “Fight-Or-Flight””

The bungled rollout of President Obama’s signature health care law might have kept the president away from Gettysburg, but it has not kept him off the links or away from the fundraising circuit.

Since the launch of the HealthCare.gov on October 1, Obama has gone golfing five times and attended ten fundraisers — with five more scheduled for the beginning of this week — while Obamacare’s favorability has hit all time lows.   Continue reading “Obama makes room for fundraisers, golf in his schedule despite Obamacare troubles”

Missouri State Parks bought the more than 300-acre property known as Camp Zoe at auction for $640,000 plus closing costs. The online auction began last month and ended Friday, said the park system’s director, Bill Bryan.   Continue reading “Missouri State Parks acquires Camp Zoe”
