DENVER, Colorado - November 21, 2010 – I just received this sad news. David Nolan, who along with eight others founded the Libertarian Party in his living room in Denver in 1971, unexpectedly died yesterday (Saturday, Nov. 20).  He apparently suffered a stroke while driving alone. His car went off the road and struck something, which may have contributed to his death.

Patriots arise! It is time to go to war with this tyrannical criminal government!

WASHINGTON - November 19, 2010 - Faced with the prospect of large numbers of people refusing the invasive“screening” measures they’ve implemented this holiday season, the TSA is hoping to fight back with threats of fine and arrest.

TSA officials say that anyone refusing both the “full body scanners” and the “enhanced pat down” procedures will be taken into custody. Fascist TSA spokesperson Sari Koshetz says, “Once a person submits to the screening process, (he or she) cannot just decide to leave.”

LONDON, England - November 16, 2010 - Passengers will have their eyes scanned as soon as they check in as part of a new trial a major UK airport.

High-tech machines that can recognize an individual's iris as they walk around will be installed at Manchester Airport at check in during the government-backed pilot program.

The technology has the potential to overhaul security and customs, with airport bosses hoping it could help in the fight against terrorism.

LOS ANGELES, Kalifornia - November 15, 2010 - A man was shocked when he pulled off a Delta flight in Los Angeles for having the words “Atom Bomb” tattooed across his knuckles.

Food stylist Adam C. Pearson was in his seat preparing to take off for Memphis when a fellow passenger reported him for suspicious behavior.

Pearson felt a tap on his shoulder and, expecting an upgrade, was instead escorted off the plane for questioning.

November 11, 2010 - The sky erupts. Cities darken, food spoils and homes fall silent. Civilization collapses.

End-of-the-world novel? A video game? Or could such a scenario loom in Amerika's future?

There is talk of catastrophe ahead, depending on whom you believe, because of the threat of an electromagnetic pulse triggered by either a supersized solar storm or terrorist A-bomb, both capable of disabling the electric grid that powers modern life.

SAO PAULO, Brazil - November 11, 2010 - Grumpy the clown won election in a laugher, getting more votes than any other candidate for Brazil’s Congress. Now he has to prove that he can read and write.

The Sao Paulo Electoral Court held a closed-door exam for the clown turned congressman-elect on Thursday to determine if he meets a constitutional mandate that federal lawmakers be literate.

Once upon a time lying was unacceptable; it was simply not allowed. Those who lied were branded as untrustworthy. They were shunned in business and social circles. Lying was neither condoned nor ignored.

However, the voice of truth seems to have been silenced among the people. How else can you explain modern society’s acceptance of lies as a natural part of life? Lies are accepted as truth in every aspect of our culture. Lies are told between family members, government and citizen, clergy and parishioner, and no one seems to care.

November 3, 2010 - Getting into a climate change debate on Twitter could be even more exhausting than it sounds now that a software developer named Nigel Leck has automated the process.

Tired of arguing with climate change deniers in 140 character quips, the programmer wrote a script to do it for him. Chatbot scans Twitter every five minutes searching for hundreds of phrases that fit the usual denier argument paradigm. Then it serves them up some science.

WASHINGTON - October 26, 2010 - Pretty please, with sugar on top, don’t call it seeing through walls. That shorthand - with its connotations of the First Earth Battalion trying to phase through brick - gets Army engineers gritting their teeth. Instead, this cream-colored handheld senses through the wall, seeing if any live human being is behind it before a squad kicks down the door to see for itself.

WASHINGTON - October 22, 2010 - Printable body armor, better bulletproof glass, and tougher steel are just a few of the applications for a new materials technology developed by Israeli researchers. A team of scientists there have developed a transparent material made of self-assembling nanospheres that is the stiffest organic material ever created, surpassing the properties of stainless steel and even Kevlar.
