WASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate voted Thursday to raise the ceiling on the government debt to $12.4 trillion, a massive increase over the current limit and a political problem that President Barack Obama has promised to address next year.
The Senate's rare Christmas Eve vote, 60-39, follows House passage last week and raises the debt ceiling by $290 billion. The vote split mainly down party lines, with Democrats voting to raise the limit and Republicans voting against doing so. There… Continue

An international team of scientists has discovered that the human body has an entirely unique and separate sensory system that is largely imperceptible in most people and is based on blood vessels and sweat glands and not on nerves. They found that people lacking known nerve receptors can still touch and feel, and the discovery of how this is possible may help us… Continue
I just watched ventura's big brother episode and was surprised Infraguard was brought up. I remember when news came out about it in 2008. Athough started in 1996 most people still have never heard of it. Hopefully Jesse's coverage will get some exposure about this.
It is true that technology today has been designed to monitor, infiltrate, and identify terrorists, for purposes of apprehending these suspected terrorists and to detect and prevent their plots and activities as we possibly can. Technology is second to none, it gives National Security the ability to eaves drop, or produce intelligence on or about anyone. The same technology and intelligence is being used for restricting private citizens privacy, and our way of life as some people in our… Continue

HAL9001: the following link is to a PDF that EVERY citizen in these United States of America NEEDS to see, read, and understand. It is the 'Articles of Freedom' as put forth by the Continental Congress of 2009. In order for it to have ANY weight with our ELECTED Officials in Washington DC, we must ALL understand our part.
Layoffs are a fact of life in this economy, but there are humane ways to do it. Then there's the Arrow Trucking method.
The Tulsa, Okla., trucking company stopped payment on the gas cards of its drivers, leaving some of them stranded Tuesday around the United States, miles from home. No explanation on the website. No one at the company answering phones.
The 200 or so employees at Arrow Trucking's headquarters were told to… Continue

That's right, I'm challenging a well held belief that the Rothschilds control the globe. That, my friends, is pure fiction, absolute nonsense and a well heeled fraud perpetrated on YOU. In fact, if you believe that the Rothschilds are behind what takes place on this globe you've been duped.
While the internet has forced many people to focus exclusively on the Rothschilds, the real culprits, the most dangerous people on the planet are walking away with the store.
And on Christmas Day in 1776, Washington’s army had collapsed from 30,000 in Brooklyn in September, to 2,500. Less than one out of every thousand Americans had the courage to be with Washington on Christmas Day. Of that 2,500, one third did not have boots. They wrapped their feet in burlap, and they left a trail of blood marching the nine miles to Trenton. Washington decided to cross an icy river at night, in a snowstorm. To march at night, to surprise 800 professional German soldiers, win a… Continue

Readers may have noticed Janet Tavakoli’s recent article at Huffington Post on Goldman Sachs and AIG. While much of it covers territory that Yves and I already wrote about previously, Ms. Tavakoli stops short of telling the whole story. While she is very knowledgeable of this market, perhaps she is unaware of the full extent of the wrongdoings Goldman committed by getting themselves… Continue

Today I’m sort of sharing a headline with my colleague David Codrea because yesterday’s release by the FBI of preliminary crime data for the first six months of this year just poked a mammoth-sized hole in that bag of hot air carried around by gun prohibitionists.
We are determined to break the siege.
We all will continue to do whatever we can to make it happen.
Using the pretext of escalating tensions on the Gaza-Egypt border, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry informed us yesterday that the Rafah border will be closed over the coming weeks, into January. We responded that there is always tension at… Continue
You might think this is a third world countries law, and it sort of is, but it isn't.
For soldiers deployed in Northern Iraq, not all of Iraq, and not all soldiers in Iraq, just a few in Northern Iraq, they are now facing punishment for becoming pregnant. Both parties involved. This includes married couples and they can face Courts Martial. Major General Anthony Cucolo has already disciplined 7 people, 4 women and 3 men.
