Proven incompetent nuke site operator says radiation increase was just a case of gas!

01 February 2014 (00:35 UTC-07 Tango)/30 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/12 Bahman 1392/02 Bing-Yin (1st month) 4712

NMP/Sellafield Limited, who’s already been declared incompetent by British government officials and even fined for breaking the law, says the unexplained elevated levels of radiation at the Sellafield nuke site in western United Kingdom, was just a case of naturally occurring gas!

The incident caused thousands of nuclear industry employees to miss a day of work.  The Sellafield site is the biggest nuke site in all Europe.  Officials claim they determined the incident to be caused by “naturally occurring background radon”.  With NMP/Sellafield Limited’s track record can anybody trust what they say?

Martial Law European Union: Police confirm they’re developing remote kill switch to target your car!

31 January 2014 (02:42 UTC-07 Tango)/29 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/11 Bahman 1392/01 Yi-Chou (1st month) 4712 (Happy New Year!)

Several European Union (the European member of the evil Trilateral Commission) news outlets are reporting that a secretive pro-police agency called European Network of Law Enforcement Technologies Services (ENLETS) has revealed they’ve been working on creating a remote kill switch for all vehicles in the EU.

Soon all ground vehicles in the EU will be required to have such a kill switch installed.  Critics are pointing out that there is no evidence that European police need such a kill switch. If you’ve lived in the EU you’d know that most roads don’t lend themselves to high speed chases.  Also, critics point out that European police have been conducting ever increasing random vehicle checkpoints, forcing drivers to stop anyway (Did you know that in Germany the Polizei conduct sobriety checkpoints looking for people who use prescription drugs, or even non-prescription cold medication?).

The EU’s Standing Committee on Operational Cooperation on Internal Security  (COSI, the EU’s version of Homeland Security) approved the remote kill switch idea.

I’ve read reports that similar technology is already being used by EU vehicle sellers who use it to disable cars whose owners failed to make the car payments.  In some cases it not only disables the car, but causes the horn to go off until the owner makes a payment!

Breaking News: Nuclear disaster in the United Kingdom? Disaster was inevitable?

31 January 2014 (01:55 UTC-07 Tango)/29 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/11 Bahman 1392/01 Yi-Chou (1st month) 4712 (Happy New Year!)

“In response to an operational condition on the Sellafield site a conservative and prudent decision has been taken, to operate the site at reduced manning levels, commensurate with safe operations.”-official statement

Reports that a possible nuclear event is unfolding at the United Kingdom’s Sellafield nuclear reprocessing site.  All non-essential workers are being told to stay home due to rapidly rising radiation levels at the site!

Sellafield is located in in Cumbria, England.  It is being used to decommission nearby nuclear reactors.  It is the largest nuke site in all of Europe, covering six square kilometers (2.3 square miles) and employing more than 10-thousand people.

Just a couple of days ago it was revealed that roe deer within the site’s boundaries will be killed off.  Officially the reason is that there is skyrocketing wild deer population in England, and they are running out of wild spaces to live.  Maybe the real reason is that they’ve become radioactive?

Also, a week ago it was revealed that John Clarke, head of the U.K.’s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, criticized the way a contractor was running the Sellafield site.  The site is run by Nuclear Management Partners (NMP), and Clarke said NMP’s “…current performance levels….are not acceptable.”

Public Accounts Committee member, Margaret Hodge, also criticized NMP saying “…more evidence …emerges of incompetence at Sellafield….”

On 18 January 2014, the Guardian/Observer stated: “The government stands accused of drafting the consultation process to select the site of a multibillion-pound nuclear waste storage facility to favour a location that some geologists claim is unsuitable for burying radioactive material.

Two leading geologists told the Observer that they believed the government was keen to push through Sellafield as the site of the facility, a subterranean tunnel network that would be the size of Carlisle, despite an official inquiry demonstrating that its geology is highly fractured and unsuitable for the safe storage of radioactive waste.”

On 17 January 2014, NMP/Sellafield Limited lost its appeal against a massive $1-million USD fine.  Back in February 2013 NMP/Sellafield was fined for dumping nuclear waste in a local garbage dump!

Martial Law Canada & U.S.A.: Police state criminals track you using Wi-Fi! More British empire take over BS!

31 January 2014 (01:46 UTC-07 Tango)/29 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/11 Bahman 1392/01 Yi-Chou (1st month) 4712 (Happy New Year!)

Documents released by Edward Snowden revealed that Canada’s  Communications Security Establishment Canada (CSEC) uses Wi-Fi (wireless internet) to track your whereabouts.

Snowden is not releasing any new documents, he turned all documents he had over to select journalists a long time ago, so many documents that it’s taken the journalists this long to discover the Canadian Big Brother/Sister scheme.

The Canadian NAZIs track you by using Wi-Fi to track your wireless device, such as your cell phone.  At this point there is apparently nothing illegal about it under Canadian law.

The documents also reveal that the Wi-Fi tracking software was jointly developed with the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), as part of the decades old secret Five Eyes union between the United States and the British empire.

Norovirus Vomiting Bug: Cruise ships hit hard! Japan hit hard, again! Hospital infections & deaths being hushed up? Using too many drugs can make it worse!

26 January 2014 (01:50 UTC-07 Tango)/24 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/06 Bahman 1392/26 Gui-Chou (12th month) 4711

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) can cause norovirus like symptoms.  Most tumors are detected after misdiagnosis.

India: A new medical study, to be published in February, shows that the more prescription drugs you use, the harder it is to deal with tummy infections.  Specifically the vomiting bug bacteria known as shigellosis.  Researchers warn against using nalidixic acid, ampicillin, co-trimoxazole and ciprofloxacin.

Italy: A study says giving your baby probiotics will reduce the chances of it getting some types of gastrointestinal diseases.  Probiotics are ‘good’ bacteria that help your stomach.

Aomori Prefecture, Japan: At least 77 people with symptoms of norovirus after eating box lunches (bentos) they bought at a store. The store has been ordered to stop selling the lunches.

Gunma Prefecture, Japan:  At least 2800 people sickened after eating frozen foods laced with malathion.  An arrest has been made.  Company officials have apologized.  Police suspect the employee they arrested deliberately poisoned the frozen foods, over the course of four production runs, because of issues regarding his pay.  The employee denies the accusation.

Hiroshima, Japan: 303 Junior High School students, and 20 teachers from ten schools got sick.  Health officials suspect norovirus.  Lunches for all ten schools are supplied by the same food service contractor.

Kyoto, Japan: Four people dead at Soseikai General Hospital.  Officials finally revealed the seriousness of the outbreak, saying it’s been going on for the past five weeks!  At least 101 patients and employees of the hospital have been infected with norovirus.

United Kingdom:  Health official are telling people that if they’ve been sick with norovirus symptoms, they need to stay away from hospitals for at least 48 hours after feeling better. Norovirus continues to close hospital wards with  Wigan Infirmary and Wrexham Maelor Hospital.

Georgia, United States: Reports of 30 people down at the Warner Robins Rehabilitation and Nursing Center.  Both patients and employees are sick.  Tests are being done to determine the cause.

Florida, United States: Indian River County revealing that “Norovirus has been identified as the culprit in several recent outbreaks in long term care facilities….”-Cheryl Dunn, Florida Department of Health

Minnesota, United States: Many students at schools in Hermantown were out sick due to an outbreak.  A school nurse noted that most of the locals were calling it a flu outbreak, when in fact it is probably norovirus.  They are suspecting self serve lunches in the schools’ cafeterias.

New Jersey, United States: The Royal Caribbean Explorer of the Seas ship halted its voyage to the U.S. Virgin Islands shortly after leaving Cape Liberty.  303 passengers and crew became violently ill.  The ship had to be “sanitized” in Puerto Rico.  The U.S. CDC will investigate.

New York, United States:  Duchess County Department of Health warning of increased gastrointestinal diseases.   Specifically norovirus.

Virginia, United States: In Midlothian, it’s been revealed there was an outbreak of norovirus at the Bon Secours Saint Francis Medical Center.  Between 30 to 40 hospital employees got sick after eating food brought in by a contracted food service.  The actual cause is still being investigated.

The U.S. CDC says norovirus accounts for as many as 800 deaths in the United States, every year.

Norovirus (aka Norwalk Virus), is a surface contact bug, meaning you pick it up by touching or eating it.  It is not influenza and there is still no vaccine for fast evolving RNA norovirus.  The only ‘treatment’ is to keep the sick person hydrated.

Exotic anti-biotic soaps can’t kill norovirus, or any other virus for that matter, because anti-biotics are only for bacteria.  Despite that, even hand ‘sanitizers’ made with alcohol can’t totally get rid of norovirus.   Guess what apparently works?  According to the U.S. CDC old fashioned hand soap is best.  Consumer Reports says to leave the soap on your hands for a minimum of 20 seconds.  Also, in public restrooms use a paper towel to turn off the faucet and to open the door, do not touch surfaces with your bare hands after washing them.

Wash household surfaces with bleach.

The worse thing is that you can be infected and not have any symptoms.  An infected person can spread norovirus, yet not feel sick themselves. If you think you might be infected do not cook food for other people. People recovering from traditional symptoms of norovirus can continue spreading the bug for days after feeling better (some reports say weeks).

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 19-22 January 2014: U.S. Army drone operator assassinated! Obama’s Presidential Guards conduct massive Israeli style home invasions?

Badakhshan Province: Mujahideen captured a gemstone mine along with 44 local cops and “…a considerable amount of arms and ammo as well as several ranger vehicles.”  They say the police were forcing people to work the mine for the profit of the local police boss-warlord.

Helmand Province: In Nawzad Distict, at least three civilians dead, four wounded when they drove over a landmine. In Marjah District, reports that a nine years old was murdered by a government lapdog, possibly a member of Obama’s Presidential Guards.

Herat Province: In Gerishk District Jangzo village, a midnight Israeli style home invasion resulted in three people being kidnapped. In Pashtun Zarghun District, 63 privately funded NGO personnel working to remove landmines, were captured by Mujahideen. Mujahideen released the ‘deminers’ once they learned they were not government military personnel.  However, local Afghan government forces claim they ‘rescued’ the deminers.

Kabul Province: In Kabul City’s 8th district, for the first time in recent memory (according to Afghan news media) an seven years old boy killed himself by hanging. Nobody knows why.

Kandahar Province: In Spin Boldak District, reports that one cop attacked two other cops with a big knife, he was shot and killed.  In Maiwan District, three civilians killed one wounded when they drove over a landmine.   In Zharai Distirct, a 42 years old U.S. Army CWO from California, was shot and killed during an attack by Mujahideen which included suicide bombers.  Mujahideen claim they killed and wounded many more than what is being reported (including several high ranking Afghan National Army personnel), saying they observed medevac ‘copters flying in and out of the base “well into the night”.  Afghan government sources say nine Mujahideen were killed.  The USA Chief Warrant Officer was an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV, drone) operator on his fourth deployment to Afghanistan.  Also, five militiamen of the Minnesota Army National Guard’s 849th Mobility Augmentation Company were wounded during the attack: “We got ambushed. We’re all alive, we’re all alive.”-Staff Sergeant Robbie Sheets, Minnesota ANG, hit by shrapnel, during a phone call with his mother

Kapisa Province: In Nijrab District, reports that a stray mortar round fired by the Afghan National Army, killed an eight years old girl and wounded six civilians.

Kunar Province: Once again provincial officials claim Pakistan bombarded their territory with artillery fire. 21 rounds hit Dangam and Kunar Khas districts. No damage or casualties reported.

Maidan Wardak Province: In Syed Abad District, an Israeli style home invasion resulted in three people being kidnapped.

Parwan Province: In Shinwari District, Mujahideen say they captured 47 artillery rounds, 8 rockets and 1500 rounds of heavy and light machine gun ammo.

Sar-e-Pul Province: Three local cops killed, four wounded when they drove over a landmine.

Zabul Province: Obama’s recently created (in 2010-11) Presidential Guards may be behind a terror op targeting civilians. In Nawbahar District, many villagers reported large scale heliborne Israeli style home invasions.  Personal vehicles and other property were destroyed, people beat up, a Mosque vandalized and at least 13 people kidnapped.

USMC General Dunford told U.S. Congress that the U.S. should stay in Afghanistan after the supposed 2014 pullout.  He wants at least 10-thousand U.S. military personnel to stay.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 15-18 January 2014: France makes military pact with Afghanistan! Poland gets out early! IMF boss assasinated by Mujahideen! Red Coat kills own daughter in ecstasy of violence!

Ghazni Province: NATO member Poland announced they are pulling out their troops early.  Instead of waiting until the end of 2014, Poland will withdraw about half of their troops by May.

Kabul Province: In Kabul City, a woman has become the first police chief for the city’s 1st District.  Police seized 3.5kg of heroine (packaged in 409 capsules) at the international airport. They say the traffickers were heading to India. An Afghan National Police (ANP) vehicle was hit with a magnetic bomb.  Cops say the vehicle was damaged but nobody was hurt. An area of Kabul City frequented by foreigners was hit by a suicide bomber and two Mujahideen gunmen.  People from Canada, Germany, Lebanon, United Kingdom and United States were killed or wounded.  One of those killed was the head of the evil International Monetary Fund’s Afghan operations!  The attack on the upscale restaurant in the city’s 14th District lasted at least five hours.  Afghans were also killed. At least 29 people killed, dozens wounded.  For some reason, the police chief and two other cop commanders from the city’s 10th District were fired.  Government officials say the three cop commanders are being investigated for negligence in connection to the attack.  Mujahideen say the attack on the city’s 14th District was a vengeance attack for what happened in Parwan Province (see below).

Kandahar Province: A U.S. Army Specialist, from the U.S. state of North Carolina, died from “non-hostile” injuries.  The U.S. Army is investigating the cause.  In Maiwan District, three children playing football (soccer) were killed when the field they were on got hit by an artillery rocket.  Four children wounded.  Of course local government officials blame Mujahideen, but have no proof.  In Spin Boldak District, a bicycle bomb exploded wounding three people.

Maidan Wardak Province: In Syed Abad District, a residential compound was hit by a missile believed fired from a U.S. drone.  One person was killed.  There was also a report of an Israeli style invasion (possibly by the Obama regime’s Presidential Guards) in which a university student was kidnapped.

Nuristan Province: In Kamdish District, a U.S. drone strike killed nine people.  Afghan government officials say most of the nine people were from Pakistan, planning attacks against the Afghan government.  Of course they presented no proof of their claim.

Parwan Province: A U.S. Army Special Forces Sergeant, from the U.S. state of Tennessee, was shot and killed by Mujahideen.  Mujahideen say five of their own were killed in the attack.  U.S. Special Forces and Afghan National Army (ANA) retaliated by calling in an airstrike killing at least 14 civilians including three women and five children, and wounding dozens more, according to government officials investigating the incident.  U.S.-NATO-ISAF officials admitted to killing only two civilians.  But there is some confusion; ISAF says the incident took place in Ghorband District, while the Afghan investigators say the U.S. airstrike hit Siagh Gerd District.  Witnesses confirm the U.S. airstrike hit four homes in the Waz Ghar valley of Siagh Gerd District.

Tahkar Province: In Darqad District, an Israeli style home invasion (possibly by the Obama regime’s Presidential Guard) resulted in ten people being kidnapped.

Uruzgan Province: In Chinartu District, reports that a mortar round landed on a house, killing one girl and wounding another girl inside.  It happened while government forces were locked in battle with Mujahideen.

The Indian government is asking U.S. led NATO not to go through with the 2014 pullout.  Indian officials would also like to see President Hamid Karzai sign the Obama regime’s security deal for 2014 and beyond.

Afghanistan has agreed to a military “Friendship” pact with France.  The military pact continues French presence in Afghanistan beyond the 2014 NATO pullout.

Germany’s ambassador to Pakistan, Cyrill Nunn, said “NATO forces will be moving out soon but that does not mean that the international community will abandon Afghanistan and stop taking interest in its affairs. Germany will continue to be involved in reconstruction and provide economic help. It will also train Afghan security forces. So nobody should worry that the friends of Afghanistan will leave the region.”

The German NGO, Welthungerhilfe, is asking that taxpayers fork over even more aid money for Afghanistan!

A former Red Coat Bilderberger British empire soldier who lost his right eye when he was shot in Helmand Province, and then was medically kicked out of the Red Coat army, savagely killed his 20 month old daughter.  At first he blamed PTSD, but then admitted to police that he always liked to hurt people and that was why he became an evil Red Coat soldier.  He was sentenced to six years in prison.

Barack Obama issued an executive order, creating a new Department of State office in Afghanistan, to be called Afghanistan and Pakistan Strategic Partnership Office.  The office will be in charge of “further security and stabilization” after the 2014 pullout!

The U.S. Department of Defense claims there is a “new” video of the U.S. Army Sergeant (from Idaho) who was captured by Mujahideen.  For some reason it hasn’t been made public.  In previous statements, Afghan Mujahideen say they are not the ones holding the POW, that he was actually captured by Pakistani Mujahideen (aka Haqqani Network).

150 militiamen from the Army National Guard’s 276th Engineering Company 203rd Engineers, from the U.S. state of Missouri, deploying to Afghanistan in February.

Do you like working for the 1%? New study says only 85 people control half the World’s wealth! U.S. recession a False Flag used by the 1% to take your money! EU austerity False Flag used to make the 1% even richer!

20 January 2014 (12:25 UTC-07 Tango)/18 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/30 Dey 1392/20 Gui-Chou (12th month) 4711

As the economy continues to contract did you ever wonder “Where’s all the money going?”  According to a new study out of the Bilderberg British empire member known as United kingdom, almost half the World’s wealth is being funneled into the pockets of just 85 people!

Oxfam International says “The wealth of the one percent richest people in the world amounts to $110 trillion. That’s 65 times the total wealth of the bottom half.”

In the United States, the top 1% used the 2009 recession to capture 95% of wealth in the U.S., making the majority of U.S. citizens poorer: “…the wealthiest one percent captured 95 percent of post-financial crisis growth between 2009 and 2012, while the bottom 90 percent became poorer.  The Great Recession did not change the trend in concentration of income: the share of US national income going to the top decile stands at 50.4 percent – its highest since World War I.”

The Oxfam study, Working for the Few, says the austerity (government spending cuts and increased taxes) is a scam run by the rich: “…..the combined wealth of Europe’s 10 richest people exceeds the total cost of stimulus measures implemented across the European Union (EU) between 2008 and 2010 (€217bn compared with €200bn). Furthermore, post-recovery austerity policies are hitting poor people hard, while making the rich even richer. Austerity is also having an unprecedented impact on the middle classes.”

Oxfam blames the growing disparity on tax policies and anti-competition laws that favor the rich.  Oxfam also admitted “It is likely that the full concentration of wealth is in fact even worse, as a significant amount of wealth among those at the top of the scale is hidden away in tax havens. It is estimated that $18.5 trillion is held unrecorded and offshore.”

The laws favoring the 1% is the result of outright bribery of your ‘elected’ officials. Oxfam gave several examples, here’s one: “In 2010, President Obama signed into law the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (known as the Dodd-Frank Bill). The objective of this legislation is to regulate financial markets to protect the economy from a second major crash. However, the financial industry has spent more than $1bn on hundreds of lobbyists to weaken and delay the Act’s full implementation. In fact, in 2012 the top five consumer protection groups sent 20 lobbyists to defend Dodd-Frank, while the top five finance industry groups sent 406 to defeat it. Even though Dodd-Frank was signed into law more than three years ago, only 148 of its 398 rules have been finalized….”

Oxfam discovered that the true shadow government and banking system is that which belongs to the global 1%: “….a global network of tax havens has evolved that has far-reaching implications for increased economic inequality. Large amounts of wealth are hidden from view, and are largely untaxed, denying national treasuries vital resources that could be used to benefit society………This network of secrecy and low tax rates facilitates the illicit flows of large amounts of capital from the poorest countries. It is estimated that between 2008 and 2010, sub-Saharan Africa lost on average $63.4bn dollars this way each year, or more than twice what it received in aid.”

The study also confirmed the adage that the rich get richer, pointing out that it’s children of wealthy parents who get richer, while children born into families of middle and lower classes get poorer.  Oxfam says it’s the result of an effect they call the “privilege cascade”.

Unfortunately the report does not name names, but the biggest share of the global wealth stealing is being done by the 1% of the United States.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 11-14 January 2014: 4-thousand+ U.S. personnel heading to Afghanistan! Obama corrupted 2009 elections! Obama regime shutting down state militias, stealing their airborne firepower! Preps for U.S. civil war?

Badghis Province: Three employees of the government Rural Rehabilitation and Development Directorate were kidnapped.

Kabul Province: In Kabul City, a suicide bomber exploded near the police academy.  At least 3 people killed, 21 wounded.

Kandahar Province: In Maiwand District, reports say a man and woman were shot and killed as they walked past a U.S.-NATO-ISAF base.  Witnesses say the shots came from the base.  The members of 1st Battalion, 158th Field Artillery, Oklahoma Army National Guard, arrived for duty at the Kandahar Airfield.

Nangarhar Province: In Jalalabad City, three children died when a propane gas cylinder exploded. Two other children, along with the parents, were wounded.   In Khogyani District, a family of six were wounded when a mortar round landed on their house.

Sar-e Pol Province: In Balkhab District, the British empire controlled (London based) Afghan Gold and Minerals Company has been awarded a contract to develop a huge copper mine.  The copper vein was originally discovered by the Soviets during the Cold War.

Uruzgan Province: In Charchino District, three local cops were stabbed to death (see, you don’t need guns to kill, it’s called hand to hand combat).  Apparently the cops were stabbed by two other cops who joined the Mujahideen.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Afghanistan is reporting skyrocketing incidents involving foreigners hunting rare animal species in Afghanistan.  It is illegal to hunt animals declared as rare in Afghanistan.  Ministry officials said most of the illegal hunters are from Arabian Peninsula, Pakistan, Kashmir and Bangladesh.

Despite foreign tax funding and deals with mining companies, The New York Times is reporting that many Afghan cops have not been paid since November 2013!  The report says Obama regime and UN officials are not aware that many cops were not being paid.  So where’s the money?

In Halifax, Canada, people are asking government officials why their war memorial still does not reflect the Canadian involvement in the U.S. led occupation of Afghanistan?

Former chief of Afghanistan Independent Election Commission Secretariat, Daud Ali Najafi, revealed that in the 2009 Afghan elections, Obama regime officials Richard Hallbrooke and Peter Galbraith tried to oust Hamid Karzai by influencing Afghan voters.  Najafi also said the U.S. officials threatened him, saying he should not announce the election result because Karzai won with 55% of the votes. A second election was held at the insistence of the Obama regime.

More than 4-thousand members of the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force deploying to Afghanistan from California.

10 air-militiamen of the Air National Guard’s 282nd Combat Communications Squadron, from the U.S. state of Rhode island, returned home from Afghanistan and Qatar.

15 militiamen from the Wisconsin Army National Guard’s 924th Engineer Facilities Detachment deployed to Romania.  The east European country is the new final landing point (Forward Operating Site Mihail Kogalniceanu) for planes carrying U.S. personnel bound for Afghanistan, since the Central Asian country Kazakhstan kicked out the U.S.

About 50 members of Alpha Battery 2-146th Field Artillery Regiment, Washington Army National Guard, returned home from Afghanistan.

The U.S. state of Oregon’s 186th Infantry 41st Infantry Brigade Combat Team Army National Guard is undergoing training for deployment to Afghanistan.

The Army National Guard’s 262nd Engineer Company, from the U.S. state of Maine, undergoing training for deployment to Afghanistan.

After returning from Afghanistan with their AH-64 Apache gunships, the Army National Guard’s 1-211th Attack Helicopter Battalion, in the U.S. state of Utah, were told they will probably lose their Apaches plus 100-200 jobs!  Supposedly it’s part of the U.S. Department of Defense’s plans to cut military spending.  Or is it really a conspiracy to deprive state militias of firepower when the 2nd U.S. civil war starts?

As they are just about to deploy to Afghanistan with their OH-58 Kiowa recon ‘copters (based on the Bell civilian JetRanger), the Army National Guard’s 1-230th Air Cavalry Squadron, in the U.S. state of Tennessee, were told they will probably be shut down by the Obama regime when they return home: “This will have a tremendously negative impact on the Tennessee Guard. If the Army follows this course of action, Tennessee will lose 30 helicopters and the 692 soldiers who support them. It will also eliminate 113 full-time jobs and possibly two of the three Army flight facilities across the state.”-Major General Max Haston, Tennessee National Guard

Tennessee National Guard was also told Obama will probably take their newly acquired German designed LUH-72 Lakotas! (the LUH-72 was originally built in the 1990s by Messerschmitt before that company was absorbed into the new Eurocopter)

After returning from another deployment to Afghanistan the Army National Guard’s 1st 104th Attack Reconnaissance Battalion, in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, revealed that the Obama regime is about to steal their Apaches, Chinooks, Kiowas and Lakota ‘copters!  It will affect at least 450 jobs, one officer says it’s a plan to destroy state militias’ airpower: “It’s a very bad deal for Pennsylvania and the entire National Guard……It leaves nothing in reserve in Army aviation. If they get shot up, there’s nowhere else to go to pull in….”-Major General Wesley Craig, Pennsylvania adjutant general

The official U.S. Army (aka Regular Army, RA) reason for stealing Apaches from state militias is that RA units will be replacing their lightweight recon birds with the anti-tank gunships. But that doesn’t explain why Obama is also ordering the RA to take Chinooks as well as the lightweight Kiowas and Lakotas.

It’s not just me, but members of the National Guard state militias suspect a coming civil war with the federales: “The Army chief of staff disparaged the Army National Guard last week by telling reporters in Washington DC, that, essentially, the Army National Guard just isn’t good enough to be relied upon more in the future.”-Major General Gus Hargett, National Guard Association of the United States

The U.S. state of Indiana’s Army National Guard gave several expensive MRAPs ($600-thousand USD each) to the West Lafayette Police Department.  The ‘gift’ will actually cost taxpayers another $4-thousand for modifications to demilitarize them.

Norovirus: More cruise lines hit! Connection to Autism? More schools shut down! Gummy Bears making people sick?

18 January 2014 (10:24 UTC-07 Tango)/16 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/28 Dey 1392/18 Gui-Chou (12th month) 4711

Ontario, Canada: The Sudbury and District Health Unit warned of increasing cases of Norwalk virus at day care centers.

United Kingdom: Multiple hospitals have wards closed due to vomiting bug.  They include Warwick (strange because on the same day there was a report saying restrictions had been lifted), Borders General Hospital, Dumfries Infirmary.

California, U.S.A.: Baywood Court Retirement Community reports an outbreak of severe gastrointestinal illness.  People are being told to stay in their rooms.  The dining hall is closed.

Florida, U.S.A: A Royal Caribbean cruise ship docked with at least 68 sick passengers and crew.

Louisiana, U.S.A.:  The U.S. FDA is warning that oysters from Copano Bay are giving people norovirus.  Remember the BP oil spill?

Oregon, U.S.A.: Rock Creek Elementary shut down after 100 kids and several staff got sick. Washington County Department of Health and Human Services suspects norovirus.  One parent lamented “I had them wash their hands. I don’t know of any realistic precautions you can take.”-Molly Brown

Virginia, U.S.A.:  Saint Francis Medical Center reports that at least 32 employees are sick. There are no reports that patients are sick, hospital officials blamed children without any proof.  The hospital is now using a ultra-violet light robot to sanitize rooms.

More and more studies concerning autism are making connections to gastrointestinal problems.  One study said 43% of their autistic subjects had GI problems. Researchers also made GI connections to families that have a history of anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorders.

Germany’s Haribo sugarless gummy bears are making people sick, at least that’s what self proclaimed victims are reporting on Amazon’s Customer Review page.  People are reporting gastrointestinal problems after eating just a handful of the bears.  One man admitted he ate one pound worth in one sitting, then suffered “Gastrointestinal Armageddon”.  Anybody remember those fat free cookies and chips, that acted like intense laxatives if you ate just a handful? Stay away from junk food that’s made with fake sugar, or fat substitutes.

The U.S. CDC says norovirus accounts for as many as 800 deaths in the United States, every year.

Norovirus (aka Norwalk Virus), is a surface contact bug, meaning you pick it up by touching or eating it.  It is not influenza and there is still no vaccine for fast evolving RNA norovirus.  The only ‘treatment’ is to keep the sick person hydrated.

Exotic anti-biotic soaps can’t kill norovirus, or any other virus for that matter, because anti-biotics are only for bacteria.  Despite that, even hand ‘sanitizers’ made with alcohol can’t totally get rid of norovirus.   Guess what apparently works?  According to the U.S. CDC old fashioned hand soap is best.  Consumer Reports says to leave the soap on your hands for a minimum of 20 seconds.  Also, in public restrooms use a paper towel to turn off the faucet and to open the door, do not touch surfaces with your bare hands after washing them.

Wash household surfaces with bleach.

The worse thing is that you can be infected and not have any symptoms.  An infected person can spread norovirus, yet not feel sick themselves. If you think you might be infected do not cook food for other people. People recovering from traditional symptoms of norovirus can continue spreading the bug for days after feeling better (some reports say weeks).
