How Many Mexican Drug War Deaths Can We Attribute to U.S. Pot Laws?It was less than one year ago when acting U.S. DEA administrator Michelle Leonhart publicly declared that the escalating violence on the U.S./Mexico border should be viewed as a sign of the “success” of America’s drug war strategies.

Well, if the DEA’s chief talking head thought that some 6,300 drug cartel-related murders in 2008 was an indication of progress, one can only imagine that she believes that this weekend’s south-of-the-border killing spree — which included the murder of a pregnant U.S. official and members of her family — must be downright victorious.

To rest of us, however, these acts are nothing short of a senseless tragedy — a tragedy made all that much more heart-wrenching because it is U.S. policy that is helping to fuel this violence.

In India, deadly backlash against freedom of information activists New Delhi, India – When Ajay Kumar asked New Delhi authorities last fall why a local politician had authorized the construction of private houses and shops on public land, he didn’t imagine the question would land him in the hospital. The activist had inquired using India’s 2005 Right to Information (RTI) Act, which allows any citizen to ask for information from any level of government, from village leaders to the office of the prime minister. It presents a cultural sea change in India, where for more than 60 years state bureaucrats have acted more like colonial masters than servants of the people.Mr. Kumar was stonewalled by the public information officer at the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, so he followed procedure and appealed to a higher-level public information office in the MCD. When he still heard nothing back, he went to the federal authorities, the Central Information Commission, which directed the MCD together with the police to jointly inspect the property.But when Kumar arrived on site in January, he was attacked by a mob of two dozen that backed the local politician.“Neither the police nor the people helped me,” says Kumar, who was beaten in the head repeatedly by an iron rod, leaving him unconscious and bleeding profusely. Kumar is now pursuing the matter in court.

Hindu holy man Paramhamsa Nityananda in hiding after 'sex film' Angry villagers have ransacked the headquarters of one of India’s most famous “swamis” — or Hindu holy men — after local television stations broadcast footage that appeared to show him cavorting in bed with two women. Paramhamsa Nityananda, who claims two million followers in 33 countries, was not present when the villagers stormed the sprawling retreat about 19 miles (31km) from the southern city of Bangalore on Wednesday, according to local police. They said that 100 officers had been deployed to protect the ashram, which is home to many Indian and Western devotees, and has been visited by several prominent Indian politicians........(Is this what he considers 'Sacred Sex' perhaps?)

Haitian family survives 2 big quakes in 2 months (AP)The Desarmes family left their native Haiti two weeks after the devastating Jan. 12 earthquake, joining the eldest son in Chile for what seemed a refuge from the fear and chaos of Port-au-Prince. Their sense of security lasted barely a month. It was shattered at 3:43 a.m. Saturday when one of the most powerful quakes on record shook a swath of Chile.All the Desarmes' immediate family survived both quakes. But twice cursed, the family now sleeps in the garden of a home that the eldest son, Pierre Desarmes, found for them just south of the Chilean capital of Santiago. They fear yet another temblor will strike. (It seems like you can run.....but you can't hide...oh my!)

Immigration Reform Advocates Allege Jobs Bill Will Allow Employers To Hire Illegal Aliens As the $15 billion jobs bill advanced through Congress last week, the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) said the measure included no verification mechanism to ensure that newly created jobs will be filled by legal U.S. workers. FAIR also alleges that the bill, which was authored by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), does not prevent employers from claiming tax credits and exemptions if the workers they hire are illegal aliens.


Priceless watches stolen from Israeli museum 27 years ago land L.A. woman in court When prolific Israeli burglar Na’aman Diller died of cancer in 2003, he left his widow a collection of more than 100 priceless artifacts of decidedly questionable origin.

They included rare clocks, manuscripts, paintings and an item billed as “the world’s most expensive watch”: a gold and rock crystal pocket watch made for French Queen Marie Antoinette in the 18th century.

All the items had allegedly been stolen during a storied heist at Jerusalem’s L.A. Mayer Museum of Islamic Art back in 1983. But that didn’t stop Diller’s widow, Nili Shamrat, 64, of Tarzana, from trying to sell the treasures back to the art museum no questions asked, authorities said.

Her effort to sell the booty put in motion a lengthy international investigation that ended a few weeks ago when Shamrat was sentenced to five years of probation and 300 hours of community service for receiving the property.

Woman Sells Children For $175 And A Cockatoo (AP) NEW ORLEANS -- A Louisiana woman has pleaded guilty to selling two children for a cockatoo and $175 in what her attorney called an attempt to do a good thing that went wrong.

Greenwell, 53, was sentenced Monday to 15 months of hard labor on each of two criminal counts: sale of a minor. The sentences are to run concurrently. The case centered on a 5-year-old boy and a 4-year-old girl in Greenwell's custody.

Scouts Train to Fight Terrorists, and More The Explorers program, a coeducational affiliate of the Boy Scouts of America that began 60 years ago, is training thousands of young people in skills used to confront terrorism, illegal immigration and escalating border violence — an intense ratcheting up of one of the group’s longtime missions to prepare youths for more traditional jobs as police officers and firefighters. “This is about being a true-blooded American guy and girl,” said A. J. Lowenthal, a sheriff’s deputy here in Imperial County, whose life clock, he says, is set around the Explorers events he helps run. “It fits right in with the honor and bravery of the Boy Scouts.” ....................'true-blooded American guy and girl??????!!!...oh sigh!...

Hazelwood man dies after 10 calls to 911 over two days In his first call to 911, Curtis Mitchell sounded calm, explaining to dispatchers that his "entire stomach [was] in pain."By the time his longtime girlfriend made a 10th call nearly 30 hours later, she was frantic.

Oklahoma cop pulls ambulance over; puts EMT in chokehold while patient lingers An Oklahoma State Trooper pulled over an ambulance on its way to the hospital Sunday, resulting in the police officer placing a chokehold on a paramedic as a patient lingered in the back.It was all caught on video by the patient’s son, who was following in another car.The officer was apparently upset that the ambulance did not yield for him.However, it is evident that the ambulance had a real emergency on its hands, unlike the cop, who had been speeding towards some incident he was able to resolve in minutes, enabling him to refocus his attention on the ambulance.The incident marks the second time this year that a police officer pulled a vehicle over as it was clearly on its way to a hospital for an emergency.

Neo-Nazi party given green light to target school children in Germany The neo-Nazi National Democratic Party will be allowed to distribute CDs outside schools with interviews and music by party members because authorities have no legal grounds to stop them, a report said Saturday.The Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons said the disc merely contained political opinions, daily Süddeutsche Zeitung reported.The department therefore found no basis on which to ban the disc, the report quoted director Elke Monsen-Engberding as saying.The NPD is Germany’s leading far-right party. It promotes an anti-immigrant agenda and is considered by the US-forced German democracy to be a threat to the constitution.

French Government Queries US re 50s Secret LSD Experiment  A major diplomatic and political scandal is erupting that could have significant import for French-American relations. It involves new research into the mysterious outbreak of "mass insanity" in a village in southern France that affected some 500 people and resulted in five deaths.

According to reliable US sources, the US State Department Bureau of Intelligence and Research has been given a confidential inquiry from the office of Erard Corbin de Mangoux, head of the French intelligence agency DSGE (Directorate General for External Security). According to the report the inquiry regards a recently-published account of U.S. government complicity in a mysterious 1951 incident of mass insanity in France in the village of Pont-Saint-Esprit in southern France.
The strange outbreak severely affected nearly five hundred people, causing the deaths of at least five, two by suicide. For nearly 60 years the Pont-St.-Esprit incident has been attributed either to ergot poisoning, meaning that villagers consumed bread infected with a psychedelic mold or to organic mercury poisoning.

No joke: South Carolina now requires ’subversives’ to register Five-dollar registration fee for persons planning to overthrow US government Terrorists who want to overthrow the United States government must now register with South Carolina's Secretary of State and declare their intentions -- or face a $25,000 fine and up to 10 years in prison. The state's "Subversive Activities Registration Act," passed last year and now officially on the books, states that "every member of a subversive organization, or an organization subject to foreign control, every foreign agent and every person who advocates, teaches, advises or practices the duty, necessity or propriety of controlling, conducting, seizing or overthrowing the government of the United States ... shall register with the Secretary of State." There's even a $5 filing fee. By "subversive organization," the law means "every corporation, society, association, camp, group, bund, political party, assembly, body or organization, composed of two or more persons, which directly or indirectly advocates, advises, teaches or practices the duty, necessity or propriety of controlling, conducting, seizing or overthrowing the government of the United States [or] of this State."

Girl buried alive in Turkish honour killing A 16-YEAR-OLD girl was buried alive by relatives in southeast Turkey in a gruesome honour killing just because she reportedly befriended boys, the Anatolia news agency reported today.Acting on a tip-off, police discovered Medine Memi's body in a sitting position with her hands tied, in a two-metre deep hole in a chicken pen outside her house in Kahta town, Adiyaman province, 40 days after she went missing, the agency said.A subsequent post mortem revealed that she had a significant amount of soil in her lungs and stomach, meaning that she was buried alive, forensic experts told the agency."The autopsy result is blood-curdling.

Gov't buys $2.5M in Super Bowl ads to boost census Faced with record levels of red ink into the foreseeable future, Washington is spending $2.5 million to create buzz for the census — by advertising during the Super Bowl.The Census Bureau is hoping to exploit the strong ratings from this annual attraction, aiming to get more participation from people who now seem disinclined to mail back a government questionnaire or even answer the door.Census officials call it a good investment, saying the front-end costs of purchasing the ads can be quickly recouped if they succeed in encouraging people to mail back their census forms. A recent poll found nearly 1 in 5 residents said they may not fill them out, mostly because they were unfamiliar with the census or weren't interested.......

(OKAY.......I GOTTA ASK.......how about if they pay us for answering the quesitons instead of paying all tha tout for advertising?????.....give US something back??????....and jeepers, how about ASKING US in the first place if we want OUR MONEY...spent that way?????.....what a novelty!)

How an 8-Year-Old Got On the No-Fly List On its website, the TSA specifically denies that there is an 8-year-old on any of its watch lists.

Businessman is arrested in front of wife and son... for ‘anti-gipsy’ email that he didn’t even write A wealthy businessman was arrested at home in front of his wife and young son over an email which council officials deemed ‘offensive’ to gipsies – but which he had not even written.The email, concerning a planning appeal by a gipsy, included the phrase: ‘It’s the 'do as you likey' attitude that I am against.’Council staff believed the email was offensive because ‘likey’ rhymes with the derogatory term ‘pikey’.The 45-year-old IT boss was held in a police cell for four hours until it was established he had nothing to do with the email, which had been sent by one of his then workers, Paul Osmond.

Shouting at your wife may get you a criminal record in France Married couples in France could end up with criminal records for insulting each other during arguments.Under a new law, France is to become the first country in the world to ban ' psychological violence' within marriage.The law would apply to cohabiting couples and to both men and women. It would cover men who shout at their wives and women who hurl abuse at their husbands - although it was not clear last night if nagging would be viewed as breaking the law.

Whether you are a fan of the current administration or not, just do the arithmetic here on THIS one!  This is laughable, unless it happened to you!



CASH THIS !!!!!

The Plan, The Scam, The Man.  Don't ya just love it when a plan comes together?

 

The Scam Regarding the Cash for Clunkers Program

  

Just look at how the stupid Cash for Clunkers car buyers got taken to the cleaners:

If you traded in a clunker worth $3,500, you got $4,500 off for an apparent "savings" of $1,000.

However, you will have to pay taxes on this $4,500 of “income” next April 15th (something no auto dealer told you).  If you are in the 30% tax bracket, you will have to pay a whopping $1,350 on that $4,500!

So, rather than save $1,000, you’ve actually paid an extra $350 to 
the feds.  In addition, you most likely traded in a car that was already paid for.  Now you have 4 or 5 years of payments on a car that you may not have needed, and costing you more per month than the averaged fuel, maintenance and upkeep you were dealing with while driving your ‘clunker’.

But wait; it gets even worse:  You also got ripped off by the dealer.  For example, every dealer here in LA was selling the Ford Focus with all the goodies, including A/C, auto transmission, power windows, etc for $12,500 the month before the "Cash for Clunkers" program started. 
 

Then, when the "Cash for Clunkers" came along, they stopped discounting the cars’ retail price and instead sold them at the full list price of $15,500.  So, you paid $3,000 more than you would have the month before...  (Honda, Toyota , and Kia played the same list price game that Ford and Chevy did).

So let's do the final tally here:

You traded in a car worth:   $3,500

You got a discount of:   $4,500

---------
Net so far:    +$1,000

But you have to pay:  $1,350 in taxes on the $4,500 (if in the 30% tax Bracket).
      
---------
Net so far:     -$350

And you paid:   $3,000 more than the car was selling for the month before         
                     
---------- 
  
Net   -$3,350 loss

We could also add in the additional taxes (sales tax, state tax, etc.) on the extra $3,000 that you paid for the car, along with the 5 years of interest on the car loan, but let's just stop here.

So who actually made out on the deal?  

* The feds collected taxes on the car along with your increased income tax on the $4,500 they "gave" you.  

* The car dealers made an extra $3,000 or more on every car they sold along with the kickbacks from the manufacturers and the loan companies.  

 

* The manufacturers got to dump lots of cars they could not give away the month before. 

And the poor, stupid consumer. . ..   got saddled with even more debt that 
they cannot afford.  

Obama and his band of merry men convinced Joe consumer that he was getting $4,500 in "free" money from the "government" when in fact, Joe was giving away his $3,500 car and paying an additional $3,350 for the privilege..

Think this was stupid for those who were crazy enough to swallow this wonderful scheme?

Just wait until we get health care with no additional costs over what most of us now pay for health insurance and the best medical care in the world.  Think that scheme might be designed by the same people who came up with Cash for Clunkers?

Obama urges major new stimulus, jobs spending President Barack Obama called for a major new burst of federal spending Tuesday, perhaps $150 billion or more, aiming to jolt the wobbly economy into a stronger recovery and reduce painfully persistent double-digit unemployment. Despite Republican criticism concerning record federal deficits, Obama said the U.S. has had to "spend our way out of this recession" with so many people out of work but insisted he was still mindful of a need to confront soaring deficits. More than 7 million Americans have lost their jobs since the recession began two years ago, and the jobless rate stands at 10 percent, statistics Obama called "staggering."(perhaps Mr. Obama should read our article "Checkbook 101" to get a little bit of an idea of fiscal responsibility.....it shouldn't be any different on a governmental level as it is on a personal level. There is no way, now shape, no form, that ANYONE CAN SPEND THEMSELVES OUT OF DEBT!.....)

TIDBITS:
The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet 8.5 inches. That’s an exceedingly odd number.
Why was that gauge used?

Because that’s the way they built them in England, and the US railroads were built by English expatriates.
Why did the English build them like that?
Because the first rail lines were built by the same people who built the pre-railroad tramways, and that’s the gauge they used.
Why did ‘they’ use that gauge then?
Because the people who built the tramways used the same jigs and tools that they used for building wagons, which used that wheel spacing.
Okay! Why did the wagons have that particular odd wheel spacing?
Well, if they tried to use any other spacing the wagon wheels would break on some of the old, long distance roads in England, because that’s the spacing of the wheel ruts.
So who built those old rutted roads? The first long distance roads in Europe (and England) were built by Imperial Rome for their legions. The roads have been used ever since.
And the ruts?
The initial ruts, which everyone else had to match for fear of destroying their wagon wheels and wagons, were first made by Roman war chariots.
Since the chariots were made for, or by Imperial Rome, they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing. Thus, we have the answer to the original question. The United States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 inches derives from the original specification for an Imperial Roman war chariot.
Specifications and bureaucracies live forever.
So the next time you are handed a specification and wonder what horse’s rear end came up with it, you may be exactly right-because the Imperial Roman war chariots were made just wide enough to accommodate the back ends of two war horses.
Now the twist to the story… There’s an interesting extension to the story about railroad gauges and horses’ behinds. When we see a Space Shuttle sitting on its launch pad, there are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank. These are solid rocket boosters, or SRBs. The SRBs are made by Thiokol at their factory at Utah. The engineers who designed the SRBs might have preferred to make them a bit fatter, but the SRBs had to be shipped by train from the factory to the launch site. The railroad line from the factory had to run through a tunnel in the mountains. The SRBs had to fit through that tunnel. The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad track is about as wide as two horses behinds.

So, the major design feature of what is arguably the world’s most advanced transportation system was determined by the width of a couple of horses’ asses.

Missouri government plots undercover sting operations against families selling raw milk Springfield Missouri: Where farmers are branded criminals. Yes, both the Missouri Dept. of Health and the state Attorney General (Chris Koster) have decided that prosecuting a farm family for illegally "trafficking" raw milk should be at the top of their list of priorities. The family being targeted by state officials is the Bechard family, of Armand and Teddi Bechard, and their children Joseph, Hananiah, Kazia and Katie.

$10 an hour with 2 kids? IRS pounces (It's called 'entrapment....why 'your' govt determines you can't live on what you say you are living on and thus must be lying to them...and harrasses you) Rachel Porcaro knows she's hardly rich. When you're a single mom making 10 bucks an hour, you don't need government experts to tell you how broke you are. But that's what happened. The government not only told Porcaro she was poor. They said she was too poor to make it in Seattle. It all started a year ago, when Porcaro, a 32-year-old mom with two boys, was summoned to the Seattle office of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). She had been flagged for an audit. She couldn't believe it. She made $18,992 the previous year cutting hair at Supercuts. A few hundred of that she spent to have her taxes prepared by H&R Block.

"I asked the IRS lady straight upfront — 'I don't have anything, why are you auditing me?' " Porcaro recalled. "I said, 'Why me, when I don't own a home, a business, a car?' "

The answer stunned both Porcaro and the private tax specialist her dad had gotten to help her.

"They showed us a spreadsheet of incomes in the Seattle area," says Dante Driver, an accountant at Seattle's G.A. Michael and Co. "The auditor said, 'You made eighteen thousand, and our data show a family of three needs at least thirty-six thousand to get by in Seattle."

"They thought she must have unreported income. That she was hiding something. Basically they were auditing her for not making enough money."

the rest of the story at the link.......according to IRS, you are dammed if you do, and dammed if you don't....they keep pulling shit like this on more people, and perhaps 'the wrong' people.........oh yes, from us, the taxpayers who pay their salaries......pink slips anyone????.... and yes.....they wasted taxpayers money to do this and also money from these people that they needed to support their families..........!!!!!! ARE YOU MAD YET?

Illegal? No Toys for You, Kid A handful of Houston-area charities tasked with giving toys to children this holiday season are checking would-be recipients’ immigration status first—and denying goodies to kids in the US illegally. Though one such group says the measure is aimed at parents, immigration advocates are appalled.“It is very disturbing to think a holiday like Christmas would be tainted with things like this,” one rep tells theChronicle. “Usually, people target the adults because the adults made the decision to migrate, where the children are just brought through no fault of their own.”

England: Taxpayers pay £1,600-a-week for family of ex-asylum seekers to live in luxury five-storey home

Furious MP uses Parliamentary privilege to accuse council of 'kidnapping' nine-week-old baby from parents Social workers who forced a couple to give up their 11-week-old baby for adoption have been accused of 'child kidnap' by an MP. Staff waited until the girl's father was out before launching a raid with police at the family home to 'snatch the baby from the arms of her mother'. Tory MP Tim Yeo used Parliamentary privilege to make the allegations in the Commons, saying Suffolk County Council had declared the couple to be unfit parents despite having no evidence of physical or emotional abuse.

SEIU Union Boss to Boy Scout: How Dare You Serve Your Community!

There's nothing new about forced-dues-hungry union bosses complaining about how volunteers and nonprofits don't pay union dues, but this is a new low:

Last week at a city council meeting in Allentown, Pa., a top official of the local Service Employees International Union chapter ranted about 17-year-old Scout Kevin Anderson's park cleanup work. Anderson devoted some 200 hours to the job in order to earn an Eagle Scout badge. He picked up trash and helped clear a 1,000-foot walking path with fellow members of Boy Scouts Troop 301 of Center Valley.

But SEIU's Nick Balzano gave them hell instead of thanks.

Balzano disparaged altruistic efforts in city parks and asserted that "there is (sic) to be no volunteers" since his union members were laid off. He then issued a witch hunt threat: "We'll also be looking into the Cub Scout or Boy Scout who did the trails. We may file another grievance on that." Citing union rules, he gave the Allentown city council, the Boy Scouts and all potential volunteers an iron-fisted ultimatum: "None of them can pick up a hoe. They can't pick up a shovel. They can't plant a flower. They can't clear a bicycle path. They can't do anything. Our people do that."

Couple arrested for not paying 18% tip If you’re frustrated by poor service at a restaurant, think twice before you decide to not tip. You may be in for a bit more than just a dirty look from the waiter. "Nobody, nobody wants to be forced to pay a tip or be arrested for terrible service," Leslie Pope said when her happy hour ended in handcuffs.Pope and John Wagner were hauled away by police and charged with theft for not paying the mandatory 18 percent gratuity totaling $16 after eating at the Lehigh Pub in Bethlehem, Pa. with six friends. Pope claimed that they had to wait nearly an hour for their order and that she had to get napkins and silverware for the table herself

Twilight 'Zona: Tennis Seniors Arrested Here we go again. How many stories like this are we going to get? Stories of senseless tennis violence. And what do you get when this happens?
Ray Moore and George Morell know. Moore was wrestled to the ground by a cop, a knee in his back while he was cuffed, apparently bleeding. Both were arrested, and spent the bulk of the day in jail.(by the way, they are in their 80's) The offense? Have I forgotten to mention that part? Morell is 85 and Moore 82. They were playing tennis at their club in the Sun City West, Ariz. retirement community, where they have been members for years. Morell, apparently, didn't show his membership card before taking the court.

When asked for it, he produced a photocopy, not the original.

That was the offense. From there, an argument is understandable, but somehow it got all the way to the club calling police, and the officers throwing them in jail after a ruckus.

.............Oh yeah....hardened criminals these two!...thats easy to see....we ask one more time ....who in hell is training these cops?????...who is letting them get away with this insanity....don't they have real criminals to chase ...and how come they are WASTING THE TAX PAYERS MONEY...(hint, these two probably are taxpayers).....and time....???

how about a series called 'dumb' and 'dumber' cops on patrol!

The world gets crazier and crazier everyday, doesn't it? The world that many of us thought was there, isn't. The bottom has dropped out of everything. The illusions have been revealed, we have found out who has been pulling the strings behind the scenes. Millions have lost their jobs, have mortgage problems, credit card issues, credit repair problems and foreclosure. What can be done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that we can control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government of a nation over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its laws." Get the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system. It's all about 'commerce'. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for each individual. Not only does this end personal debt, it places the people first in line as creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in A New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles, an informational study. Is your credit rating bad for reasons that seem out of your control? There are ways of credit repair, so you can men those broken fences too. Do you want to keep your children protected from outside forces, there are ways of protecting your children. Do you want to keep your sons and daughters free from 'the draft'? Check this out.
