The first phase of nuclear talks with Iran went well, Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday.

Most people associate drones with military and counter-terrorism programs, but Balfour Beatty CIO Danny Reeves wants to use them for a rather different purpose. Speaking at the Fujitsu Forum, he told Techworld that unmanned aerial vehicles could be used to build walls, and improve project efficiency.

Balfour Beatty is a international construction and engineering firm that specializes in large-scale projects and building management. Their revenue for 2012 was approximately $17 billion, with an operating income of just under $500 million, so presumably they have the resources to commission a fleet of construction drones. Reeves also spoke of the potential for drones to monitor sprawling project sites, hopefully reducing communication errors and wasted labor on large sites.   Continue reading “International Construction Firm Balfour Beatty Considering Drone Workers”

Tufts Magazine – by COLIN WOODARD

Last December, when Adam Lanza stormed into the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, with a rifle and killed twenty children and six adult staff members, the United States found itself immersed in debates about gun control. Another flash point occurred this July, when George Zimmerman, who saw himself as a guardian of his community, was exonerated in the killing of an unarmed black teenager, Trayvon Martin, in Florida. That time, talk turned to stand-your-ground laws and the proper use of deadly force. The gun debate was refreshed in September by the shooting deaths of twelve people at the Washington Navy Yard, apparently at the hands of an IT contractor who was mentally ill.   Continue reading “Up in Arms”

Obama Military PurgeMilitia News – by Xavier

Throughout history, whenever a dictator came to power, the first thing such infamous leaders did was to purge the military. Since Barack Hussein Obama became President, at least 197 officers, mostly at the rank of colonel or higher (including 9 senior generals), have been relieved of duty for a variety of reasons, or for no stated reason at all. The real question is. . . who is more likely to fire on the American public? Those loyal to the Constitution, the people, or those loyal to a rogue leader? And this is the very same man who wants to disarm you in the name of ‘public safety’.   Continue reading “The Military Purge Continues”

The UC Berkeley student government has banned the term “illegal immigrant” from its discourse, deeming the phrase racist, offensive, unfair and derogatory.

Zionist mega donor Sheldon Adelson once said, “Not all Islamists [Muslims] are terrorists, but all terrorists are Islamists [Muslim].” Not only are 94% of all terrorist attacks on US soil committed by non-Muslims, but Jews like Sheldon Adelson, are actually responsible for more terrorist attacks than Muslims. That’s right, according to the FBI, Jews were responsible for 7% of terrorist attacks on American soil while Muslims were only responsible for 6%.    Continue reading “Which Race Is Most Likely To Be A Terrorist?
