WASHINGTON — The Transportation Security Administration is abandoning a plan to allow passengers to carry small knives, souvenir bats, golf clubs and other sports equipment onto planes in the face of fierce congressional and industry opposition, the head of the agency said Wednesday.

By scuttling the plan to drop the knives and sports equipment from TSA’s list of prohibited items, the agency can focus its attention on other priorities, including expanding its Pre-Check program to identify ahead of time travelers who don’t pose a security risk, TSA Administrator John Pistole told The Associated Press.   Continue reading “TSA Drops Plan To Allow Small Knives On Planes”

Refreshing News

There have been a lot of news stories recently about young children being punished for talking about guns, making toy guns, owning toy guns, and drawing guns. This new story takes the cake: a group of students from Chase Lake Elementary School in Edmonds, Washington, asked their teacher if they could bring Nerf guns to school. The teacher gave permission, but the school punished the children with suspension anyway.   Continue reading “Teacher: Kids, bring your Nerf guns to school. I have a fun experiment planned. School: Kids, we have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to toy guns. You’re all suspended”

He’s either a right-wing extremist, a knee-jerk liberal, a yuppie, a gun nut, a Jesus freak, a redneck, a soccer mom, a welfare queen, or possibly even a conspiracy theorist, but regardless of what he actually thinks or feels, he falls into one of many media-defined categories, and without ever speaking to him, you’re fairly certain that you already know his opinions on all political issues. And just as every army teaches its soldiers to use derogatory names for their enemy, you’ve been taught a derogatory name to describe most of the people around you, and there are corresponding television characters that give you examples of how they think, so you never really have to talk to them at all.    Continue reading “I know your neighbor….”

Some of US President Barack Obama’s high-ranked political appointees are using secret government email accounts, which they say are necessary to prevent their inboxes from being overwhelmed with unwanted messages and spam.

The scale of secret email use across the government remains unknown, as most US agencies have failed to provide lists of political appointees’ email addresses, which AP requested under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) over three months ago.      Continue reading “Obama’s top appointees use secret email accounts – AP”

The state of Connecticut has become the first to successfully enact a law requiring food containing genetically modified ingredients to be labeled as such, though it comes with the unusual requirement that four other states must pass similar legislation.

Though supporters of GMO product labeling will likely laud the state legislature’s approval of the new bill, it represents a significant weakening of the initial proposal with the introduction of a bipartisan ‘compromise’ requiring that four additional states, one of which must border Connecticut, pass labeling laws as well. An additional requirement is that the aggregate population of any combination of such states exceed 20 million people.    Continue reading “Connecticut passes first GMO food labeling law in US”
