Fukushima

Fukushima – WIPP – Radiation Fallout: INL admits “nobody really knows what’s going on.” Radioactive trash dump in U.S. on fire?

19 September 2015 (12:24 UTC-07 Tango 01)/28 Shahrivar 1394/05 Dhu l-Hijja 1436/07 Yi-You (8th month) 4713

“The Agency has for many years made a major contribution to development by making nuclear science and technology available in areas such as food production, water management and agriculture. Our work deserves greater recognition.”-Amano Yukio, UN IAEA

India: “Over the past four months, sporadic rainfall saw Mumbai’s UV Index (UVI) levels touch the ‘high risk’ category. Their immediate effect can be seen in form of sun burns, long-term exposure can lead to skin cancer and cataract.  ‘The sporadic rain pattern is responsible for the high UV radiations in the city this monsoon,’ said Gufran Beig, project director, System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research (SAFAR), IITM. ‘When (the number of) rainy days are less followed by a long period of sunny days, UV radiation levels peak.’”

Ukraine: “International heavy lift company Mammoet and its client Novarka have successfully connected the two halves of the New Safe Confinement (NSC) structure at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine. This was needed following the catastrophic nuclear accident in 1986.”

United States: “Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.), ranking member of the House Communications Subcommittee, are accusing the FCC of failing to enforce safety guidelines on cell tower worker exposure to radiofrequency radiation, saying they are putting the health and safety of a quarter of a million workers at risk.”

“Exposure to high doses of radiation triggers a number of potentially lethal effects. Among the most severe is the gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity syndrome caused by the destruction of the intestinal barrier, resulting in bacterial translocation, systemic bacteremia, sepsis, and death….   ….TP [Thrombin-derived Peptide] 508 may be an effective emergency nuclear countermeasure that could be delivered within 24 h post exposure to increase survival and delay mortality, giving victims time to reach clinical sites for advanced medical treatment.”

“Scientists have recently developed a new hybrid solar energy system that harnesses all of the sun’s radiation…..”

Idaho:  Researchers at the INL are on the verge of creating a system to track nuclear waste from the oil industry.  The oil industry uses radioactive material as part of its oil extraction process.  The new system will be tested in North Dakota because “It’s the Wild West out there. Waste sites are taking the wrong stuff, or they’re dumping it in fields. Nobody really knows what’s going on.”-Doug Akers, Idaho National Laboratory

Massachusetts: “As a resident of Plum Island, Newbury, I are deeply concerned about the threat posed by Seabrook Station — the threat of radiation release. If a radiation release were to occur, evacuating this area would be impossible.”

“…parents filed a lawsuit claiming that the Fay School in Southborough has ‘high-intensity Wi-Fi emissions’ that have harmed their son……he has a condition called Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome (EHS)”

Missouri: “…radiation from the West Lake Landfill in Bridgeton has spread to neighboring properties. The reports also suggested that an underground fire at the neighboring Bridgeton Landfill is moving toward radioactive waste and could reach it as soon three to six months. The landfills’ owner, Republic Services, has vehemently maintained that the situation at the landfills is under control.”

“Loretta Copeland is shutting the doors on her dog grooming business on Natural Bridge Road, near McKelvey Road, about a mile from the landfill. She says she’s afraid of getting cancer.  ‘…it just seems like everybody you talk to they either have cancer or they know somebody……..Who wants to buy a grooming shop sitting within one mile from the landfill?’”

New Mexico: “The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant simulated a full-scale emergency response on Wednesday to prepare the facility and community in case an emergency occurred again.”

“The Underground Ventilation System at Waste Isolation Pilot Plant is being upgraded to provide additional airflow into the facility’s underground.”

“…burying 34 tons of weapons-grade plutonium would be far cheaper and more practical than completing a multibillion-dollar plant that would turn the radioactive material into commercial reactor fuel.”

New York: “The studies found that 50 percent to 75 percent of the animals who were exposed to a potentially lethal dose of radiation died without any treatment. Using Cleveland BioLabs’ Entolimod drug, less than a third of all animals that received the drug died, even when the drug was administered as much as 48 hours after exposure.”

“An upstate New York man faces life in prison after he became the first person ever convicted in the U.S. of trying to acquire a radiation weapon for mass destruction…”

Washington: Hanford to remain Undeclared Interim Storage site “By early 2007 the decision was made to construct a mox fuel plant at the Savannah River Site (SRS), in South Carolina. Construction is 70 percent complete, and some $4.5 billion has been spent.  ……DOE-Headquarters is now considering major/arbitrary changes to the final disposition of MOX, and stopping construction the mos facility at SRS!    DOE’s new path is considering ‘downblending’ (diluting) the weapons grade plutonium and adding it to waste going to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) in New Mexico. DOE reports shutting down the SRS mox plant could cost a billion dollars.”

“In the near term the cost of dealing with the solid waste would be about $20 million from the DOE Richland Operations Office annual budget, which is about $1 billion a year, according to the state of Washington.”

Washington DC: “In 1981, anthropologists, engineers, nuclear physicists, and others assembled to form the Human Interference Task Force, at the behest of the U.S. Department of Energy and Bechtel Corp. The impetus of the task force, according to a technical report issued a few years later, was to ‘reduce the likelihood of future humans unintentionally intruding on radioactive-waste isolation systems.’”

Japan:  Off the coast of Hokkaido a fish called a Wolffish was caught. The man who caught it says it’s one of the largest Wolffish ever caught.  See internet ‘TV’ news report here.

Proof of arrogant incompetence: “…there was a basic assumption in Japan that the design of nuclear power plants and the safety measures that had been put in place were sufficiently robust to withstand external events of low probability and high consequences….there was a tendency for organizations and their staff not to challenge the level of safety……resulted in a situation where safety improvements were not introduced….”

More proof of government incompetence: “…a team of Japanese researchers report that evacuation following the Fukushima nuclear accident may have been much worse for Japanese citizen’s health than nuclear radiation.”

“Authorities in the small city of Nikko in Japan’s Tochigi Prefecture, some 175 km away from the Fukushima nuclear power plant, have said that at least 334 bags containing radioactive soil have been swept into a tributary of the Kinugawa river, The Asahi Shimbun reports.

According to the city’s authorities, the washed-away waste was only part of hundreds of bags being stored at the Kobyakugawa Sakura Koen park alongside the river. Another 132 bags of waste reportedly rolled down the slopes.” 

‘Black’ helicopters return to California! U.S. will increase radiation contamination limits! 

Idaho

Boise, Idaho, renders 400 War Refugees homeless in the name of jacking up rents! Disabled people being kicked out as well!

17 September 2015 (16:34 UTC-07 Tango 01)/26 Shahrivar 1394/03 Dhu l-Hijja 1436/05 Yi-You (8th month) 4713

“People who we work with very closely have already gone through flight, war, disaster, devastation, have been displaced….with a lot of strength, ingenuity and resilience, made whole new lives, and they’re being expected to do it all over again!”-Julianne Donnelly Tzul, International Rescue Committee

The International Rescue Committee reports that at least 4-hundred war refugees are being evicted from the Glenbrook Apartments off Curtis Road in Boise, Idaho.

Reports say the new California based owners of the apartment complex has plans to remodel the complex and greatly increase rents, from $650 per month for a two bedroom to $1-thousand USD per month!  They’re plan to evict tenants has started with those who rent month to month.  A local TV station tried to get comment from the new apartment owner, with no luck.

It’s not just war refugees being kicked out but people on welfare and people with disabilities, a local community action church warned of legal action: “I don’t know if ownership or management fully thought through the ramifications of what it means to release those people. Whether it’s legal or not, I think the impact of their decision should be taken into consideration.”-John Thompson, Cornerstone Community Church

“I’m going to cry….the business isn’t there anymore.” Eliminating older workers dubbed War for Talent! Mass incompetence in Jersey schools! A Idaho Right to Work over Unions law ruled illegal! : U.S. Job Losses & Closings 17 September 2015

Incomplete list of publicly announced layoffs & shutdowns:

Japan based Sony is ending its facebook support for the PS3 and Vita.

California: In upscale elitist Montecito, after 30 years Lana Marme Last Resport clothing store shutting down.  San Diego news sources say the expected mass layoffs by Qualcomm will be in the thousands! Qualcomm employees about 12-thousand people in San Diego.   In Santa Monica, after 93 years (surviving the Great deflationary Depression and numerous recessions) Santa Monica Radiator shutdown: “We have had an amazing 93-year run in business…Operating the business has become extremely stressful. It’s much more difficult to be profitable.”-Chuck Perliter, a third-generation owner (remember, they survived the Great Depression and they say now it’s too hard to be profitable!)

In Huntington Beach, Yum! brands owned (spun-off from anti-gun Pepsi) Taco Bell shutting down their experimental fast-casual booze selling U.S. Taco Company restaurant due problems with booze licensing and lack of sales.   The Arcata Chamber of Commerce shutting down its California Welcome Center due to being $12-thousand USD in the hole.  All four Orange County Capriotti’s sandwich shops shutdown suddenly by the corporation: “Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop has decided to end a relationship with one of our franchisees.”-Ashley Morris, ceo

Georgia: In Savannah, Thrifty Hardware & Home Supply shutdown after almost 60 years. It’s been sold to fund the owner’s retirement.

Idaho: The 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals has ruled the evil 2011 anti-unions law (given the Orwellian Double Speak title Fairness in Contracting Act) to be in violation of the federal National Labor Relations Act.  Because of lawsuits the law never went into effect.  The bad news is that yet again Idaho taxpayers are stuck paying the legal fees caused by their inept and evil ‘lawmakers’!

Idaho taxpayers will also have to pay for the burial fees for a female U.S. Navy veteran, as well as $70-thousand USD in legal fees.  The female vet wants to be buried along side her wife in the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery, but ‘lawmakers’ forbade it due the fact the vets are the same sex.  However, after court battles Deputy Idaho Attorney General W. Scott Zanzig admitted “There is no question that the plaintiff is entitled to an award of fees and expenses under controlling law.”

Idaho ‘lawmakers’ have a long track record of losing court cases and then sticking taxpayers with the bill!  It’s proof that ‘lawmakers’ do not represent the ‘people’, because they’re obviously picking the wrong battles to fight in court.

More proof employers are shunning people over 35.  In Twin Falls it was reported that the growing food processing industry there will focus on hiring people ages 18 to 34 only.  Jan Rogers of Southern Idaho Economic Development Organization admitted that’s it’s also a national agenda.  The push to get rid of older workers has been dubbed by Jeff Sayer, director of Idaho Department of Labor, as The War for Talent.

To show you how ignorant the numbers crunchers are with the state Department of Labor, they expect 109-thousand jobs to be created over the next ten years. Sounds good, until you realize that they expect all those jobs to be filled by out-o-staters moving in.  In others words they are not concerned with the unemployed Idahoans currently struggling to find jobs!

Illinois:  In Chicago, after 13 years the Signal Ensemble theater shutdown.  After 41 years Variety Comics shutting down by the end of October, 40 years worth of comic iconica must be sold. In Kankakee, Germany based BASF shutting down its resin factory, 50 jobs lost.  Administrators admitted that their sales have been crashing for the past 15 years, before the Great Recession started.

Louisiana: A third round of layoffs being reported at the NOLA.com/The Times-Picayune.  37 jobs eliminated so far.  One former unnamed employee said he was laid off as he drove home from work: “By the time I got home and tried to check my email it had been deactivated.”  

What hurricane recovery?  In New Orleans, after four years critically praised farm-to-table restaurant Maurepas Foods shutting down by October: “We were just at a plateau. Every day I know exactly what I can buy from our farmers and I know the limits of what I can pay my staff, and I know that I’m not able to spend as much time with my family as I want to and keep it going.”-Michael Doyle  

Massachusetts: Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) forcing Peabody based medical equipment maker Analogic to eliminate at least 90 U.S. jobs as they begin moving production to China!

Maryland:  Too Big to Jail BB&T (Branch Banking & Trust) eliminating 126 jobs in Hagerstown as a result of their $2.5-billion takeover of Susquehanna Bancshares!

Michigan: After 32 years Pete’s Stardust Family Restaurant shutdown, no explanation.   In Grand Rapids, the owners of Kilwins chocolates are suing their former landlord for forcing them to shutdown. They claim that Steadfast Property Holdings (note it’s an evil ‘holding’ company, the same type that helped cause the Great Depression) failed to maintain its air conditioning systems, causing the store’s inventory to melt.  Apparently Texas owned Adrian Mall is kicking out MC Sports: “I’m definitely not happy because we are a good store and I know our customers are disappointed too, but there’s not much we can do about it.”-Amy Gossman, associate manager

Minnesota:  Buck’s Furniture shutdown their last store, the owner blames his quality long lasting furniture and said economic times have radically changed: “Like many small, independent retailers, we’ve survived fires, some tough economic downturns, trends toward disposable furniture and Internet retailers, but we live in a new economic reality today. For a small furniture business to be competitive in the long-run you need deep pockets and repeat customers. So in some ways we created our own problem. We hear every day that our all-wood furniture lasts a long time.”-Ramon Buck

Montana: In Libby, Applied Materials consolidating to Kalispell, 17 jobs lost.  

Nebraska: In Omaha, after 80 years iconic Piccolo’s Restaurant shutdown. The restaurant was also known for its sign of the original owner which shows “He’s playing the piccolo wrong. He never played the piccolo and he’s playing it left handed because he was left handed and that’s not how you play the piccolo.”  The current owner and daughter of the original owner,Donna Sheehan, lamented “I’m going to cry. I didn’t want to do this. Sorry. We decided to end it because the business isn’t there anymore. We’ve tried everything but it’s just what happens. The chains come in and they just eat the little fish. We can’t compete with them. They have deep pockets. We do not.”

New Jersey: More proof of public administrator incompetence.  Over the Summer Paterson School District laid off 3-hundred people, blaming what I call Disappearing Students Syndrome!  After you include protest resignations and early retirements at least 535 jobs went away! Now those same exalted school administrators are scrambling to hire on people because it turned out they weren’t losing students, in fact their enrollment went up by 7-hundred students!

New York: Drugs maker Novartis Pharmaceuticals shutting down their Suffern factory sometime after Xmas, at least 54 jobs lost.   The Daily News laid off about a dozen people, the owner says it’s losing $20-million USD per year and he’s trying to sell it.

Ohio: Tax sucking nuclear industry contractor Fluor-BWXT Portsmouth reminded local governments it is losing money big time and could eliminate 570 jobs in October, and 1-thousand 4-hundred jobs in the long run!  It’s connected to the decommissioning disaster known as Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant, in Piketon.

Oklahoma: After 45 years the Consumers IGA grocery store in Stillwater shutting down by the end of the month.  The owner blamed the greedy property owner for selling to property developers.  Tulsa based shale oil company Samson Resources now chapter 11 bankrupt busted claiming to be in $4.2-billion of debt!

Pennsylvania: God refuses to stop administrators at ‘his’ Saint Joseph’s University from eliminating jobs and cutting programs due to The Rapture, I mean what I call Disappearing Students Syndrome.  Administrators hope the cuts will put them back into the ‘black’ next school year.  The Wilkinsburg School District shutting down its High School and shipping the 2-hundred students to another school district!  However, it was revealed the district is also going to spend $10-million renovating two elementary schools. After nine years the Meritage restaurant shutdown, it might be connected to the collapse of the wall in the kitchen.

Texas: Two Dallas Capriotti’s sandwich shops shutdown suddenly by the corporation: “Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop has decided to end a relationship with one of our franchisees.”-Ashley Morris, ceo

Virginia:  The Virginia Hospital and Healthcare Association warned that Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) is making healthcare worse.  They said increasing operating costs and decreasing payments will result in state run hospitals shutting down and thousand of people becoming unemployed!

Wisconsin: News reports say the city of LaCrosse forcing a local church to shutdown its homeless shelter.  Apparently elitist Nazi false christian neighbors didn’t like the church taking in homeless people and complained!  Manitowoc Ice laying off more employees, this time 20 by November.  It’s part of the company’s plan to move production to Mexico.

16 September 2015: “We need our money and we need it now!”

WARN=Worker Adjustment & Retraining Notification

Former employees who receive severance are not counted as unemployed

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) no longer issues mass layoff reports: “On March 1, 2013, President Obama ordered into effect the across-the- board spending cuts (commonly referred to as sequestration) required by the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act, as amended. Under the order, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) must cut its current budget by more than $30 million, 5 percent of the current 2013 appropriation, by September 30, 2013. In order to help achieve these savings and protect core programs, the BLS will eliminate two programs, including Mass Layoff Statistics, and all ‘measuring green jobs’ products. This news release is the final publication of monthly mass layoff survey data.”

False Flag or Incompetence? 3rd time in 4 months massive loss of industrial bees in Idaho!

12 September 2015 (14:54 UTC-07 Tango 01)/21 Shahrivar 1394/28 Dhu al-Qa’dah 1436/30 Yi-You 4713

For the third time in four months, millions of bees used by farmers were lost when a tractor-trailer rig flipped while driving through Idaho.  (the first two times happened in June)

A pollen encrusted bee on a sunflower in Chubbuck, Idaho.

A pollen encrusted bee on a sunflower in Chubbuck, Idaho.

This time it happened near where I live,  on Interstate 15.  The bees swarmed and caused drivers in other vehicles to crash.  A motorcyclist was stung on the head, causing him to crash.  Then a tanker truck hauling sulfuric acid crashed into a car.

I find it interesting that as bees are so important to agriculture that three major accidents involving trucks hauling bees through Idaho happened in a four months period (one in Coeur d’Alene, northern Idaho. One near Arco, eastern Idaho, and now this latest one in Pocatello also in eastern Idaho).

The owner of the bees says most will die due to their hives being destroyed.

Mother Nature killing off Bees, Chickens & Turkeys! 

U.S. West Nile virus: No more bees? 

West Nile update: Bees dying by the thousands! 

Corn syrup + GMO corn crops + Pesticides = Honey Bee Colony Collapse!

“We just cannot continue on this road.” California city admits goal of destroying 2nd Amendment Rights! Idaho ignores its own beer/wine sales laws! Pocatello leaders lie about jobs! : U.S. Job Losses & Closings 10 September 2015

Incomplete list of publicly announced layoffs & shutdowns:

Alabama: Richland Golf Course shutdown: “It is with heavy and broken hearts that we announce we have put Richland Golf Center up for sale.  The past fourteen years at Richland have been a true blessing…..The past few years have been rough.  Our rent has more than tripled over the last several years and it has killed us.  We just cannot continue on this road……We have met with banks, private investors, City officials, and more trying to work something out.  Our prayer is to sell the facility.”

California: In San Luis Obispo, after 30 years the owners of Costume Capers say they must shutdown after Halloween due to competition from internet and the seasonal Halloween costume shops.  Cupertino based (but incorporated in Ireland as a tax dodge) hard-disk maker Seagate announced it’s killing off 1-thousand and 50 jobs in time for Xmas!  It’s blamed on crashing computer sales.  In San Francisco, the owner of the last gun store in the city, High Bridge Arms, says the city is about to pass an unconstitutional law that will shutdown his business.  City administrators boasted that they were openly attacking the 2nd Amendment: “What we are doing is essentially closing what amounts to a loophole between federal and state law and making sure that San Francisco continues to stay at the forefront of gun control legislation in our country.”-Mark Farrell

Florida: Avon Park Fire Department laid off 11 firefighters due to local taxpayers demanding an end to the Fire Assessment Fee.

Georgia: Atlanta based NBC owned Weather Channel laying off an undisclosed number of employees due to a radical change in programming.

Idaho: The Idaho Statesman revealed that Idaho police have not been enforcing state laws regarding the sale of beer and wine.  One rule says all brands of beer/wine must be available to all retailers who want to sell it, no “private label” sales.

In Bannock County the Mormon dominated Bannock Development Corporation outright lied about jobs saying “The demand is here but the workforce isn’t.”  Bullshit!  I’ve been unemployed since April (when I got laid off after the USPS shutdown their postal processing center in Pocatello on Flandro Drive).  I got no severance and the Idaho Department of Labor gave me no unemployment assistance.  I’ve got 13 years military experience, decades in retail/warehousing/delivery and six years in television, yet in the past few months I got three rejection notices for entry level jobs say I “didn’t have the qualifications they were looking for”!  Where are these jobs Bannock Development Corporation?  I’ve been told my problem is my age, I’m over 45 years old which seems to be the unwritten cutoff for hiring workers.  Most of the young adults in the area flee due to the lack of good paying jobs, so is what the Bannock Development Corporation really saying is that ‘the demand is here but the YOUNG MORMON workforce isn’t.’?

Illinois: In Washington, Tractor Supply Company shutting down its Washington Road location in October, due to “many business factors”.  The Lone Star Steakhouse & Saloon shutdown after 18 years on Route 50, at least 50 jobs lost.  It’s blamed on the property owner who wants to redevelop the land.  The Top of the Hill Bait Shop in Murphysboro shutdown.

Iowa: In Shell Rock, farm equipment maker Unverferth Manufacturing joins the downsizing club: “As commodity prices have plummeted over the last year and investment tax credits have subsided, so has the demand for farm equipment. As such, we have had to make the hard choice of laying off workers to better meet current demand. Being family owned, we keep any specific numbers private.”

Louisiana: Too Big to Jail Capital One announced major changes for its Pelican State operations that will result in shutdowns and hundreds of layoffs: “We are transforming the bank with a focus on efficiency and simplifying our organization. We notified assistant branch managers in Louisiana that their roles are being eliminated.”

Maryland:  Bethesda based tax-sucker Lockheed Martin announced they will eliminate 5-hundred IT jobs! It’s connected to their $9-billion USD takeover of Sikorsky Aircraft.  Lockheed Martin has already eliminated hundreds of jobs this year.

Michigan: After 35 years The Lark restaurant shutting down by Xmas in West Bloomfield Township.  The owners said it’s getting harder to run a business and the returns continue to fall.

New Jersey: In Toms River, Harris’ clothing store shutdown after 87 years (surviving the Great deflationary Depression and numerous recessions).   After 100 years (surviving the Great deflationary Depression and numerous recessions) Metzler’s Sporting Goods shutdown: “We made it to 100 years and that was very important to me. I’m going to be 65, it makes sense. Now is a good time for me to pack it in while everything is still OK and to go out on my terms.”-Billy Meltzer

New York: In Orchard Park, after 80 years (surviving the Great deflationary Depression and numerous recessions) Eckl’s Restaurant shutting down by the end of the month.  It’s up for sale.

North Carolina: Duke Energy shutting down their Allen Steam Station coal fired electricity factory by 2024, due to a federal lawsuit.

Oklahoma: In Tulsa, Lil’ Reasor’s convenience store on 15th Street and Lewis Avenue shutdown.

Pennsylvania: Too Big to Jail BB&T (Branch Banking & Trust) laid off 89 people at its new Lititz location.  It’s part of BB&T’s $2.5-billion takeover of Susquehanna Bancshares.  More layoffs could happen once more redundancies are identified.

South Dakota: Wyndham Hotel Group shutting down their Aberdeen call center, 250 jobs lost by January 2016!

Texas: In Austin, after 34 years Cozzoli’s Pizza shutdown.

Washington: The state Charter School Commission forced to shutdown after the state Supreme Court ruled charter schools “unconstitutional”!

Wyoming: In Pavillion, Miss Ginny’s Roost Steak House shutting down: “Yes, Saturday lunch will be our last day of operation. There is no one to blame but myself: I made very bad business decisions, based on bad information. I take full responsibility for the demise of my once proud Roost.”

Mississippi: In Vicksburg, reports that Texas based oil service company Schlumberger is about to layoff 222 people after selling off their recently acquired Cameron ops to a rival: “Due to the current declining business conditions, the company has decided to substantially reduce its operations at the Vicksburg facility. As a result, we anticipate that we could potentially permanently layoff up to as many as 222 employees, beginning as early a November, 2, 2015.”

Missouri: In Springfield, Price Cutter shutting down its Grand Street grocery store.  Local news reports say no official explanation was given.

Incomplete list of publicly announced layoffs & shutdowns:

“Premiums for Obamacare plans are expected to increase substantially in 2016, with many insurers requesting double-digit rate hikes. For example, in June Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina proposed an overall rate hike of 26 percent for 2016 Obamacare plans, and two months later raised the hike to 35 percent.”–Agile Health Insurance

The British empire’s taxpayer funded BBC announced massive funding and program cuts.  The BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) is the shadow owner of the United State’s PBS (Public Broadcasting Service, public meaning funded by donations), if you haven’t noticed all those British programs clouding up the PBS airwaves.

Alaska: After four years film and commercial production company Piksik shutting down by the end of the month.  It’s connected to a controversial tax credit for the movie industry.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) no longer issues mass layoff reports: “On March 1, 2013, President Obama ordered into effect the across-the- board spending cuts (commonly referred to as sequestration) required by the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act, as amended. Under the order, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) must cut its current budget by more than $30 million, 5 percent of the current 2013 appropriation, by September 30, 2013. In order to help achieve these savings and protect core programs, the BLS will eliminate two programs, including Mass Layoff Statistics, and all ‘measuring green jobs’ products. This news release is the final publication of monthly mass layoff survey data.”

U.S. Civil War, 31 August – 02 September 2015: California admits killing thousands of civilians! Idiot cops shoot each other! Fast food employees refuse service to cops!

Civilian Lives Matter!

Incomplete list of news reports:

Unfair and unbalanced Fox News reports that police recruitment is crashing.

The British theguardian reports that U.S. police “fatally shot 30 people in moving vehicles this year, despite federal guidelines advising them not to.”

Arizona: Peoria police are investigating one of their own after video surfaced showing the cop beating a cop dog (K9).  

California:  The state Department of Justice has launched a new website that actually publicises the number of civilians killed by cops. It’s called Open Justice, and it shows that between 2005 and 2014, 684 people per year have suffered “death in custody”, versus only 10 cops killed per year!  6-thousand 156 civilians killed by law enforcement in a nine years period!    Fresno cops arrested a 15 years old for posting stupid Eminem lyrics on his Instagram account. The boy says his account was hacked.  In Oakland, somebody punked the cops by placing a lifelike baby doll in a car and then called 911. No further info at this time.  This comes after cops shot and killed a woman they say was hitting them with a metal chain.  This after video was posted showing an Oakland cop spitting on people.

Florida: In Pembroke an Arby’s employee refused to serve a local cop.  Despite the manager ordering the employee to serve the cop, the Pembroke Pines Police Department ‘leaned’ on Arby’s and got an official corporate apology directly from the ceo and vp of operations, however the arrogant despots Broward and Dade County Police Benevolence Association said an apology was not enough!

Georgia:  Atlanta area cops shot and wounded a homeowner and killed his dog, and also shot one of their own.  DeKalb County police claim they were responding to a burglary call.  It sounds like a total case of Keystone cops; they failed to see if anybody was home then broke into the house themselves whereupon the family dog scared them and they killed it.  When the homeowner responded they shot him in the leg, and somehow one of the cops was also shot, by the other cop! 

DeKalb County is the same place where director of DeKalb County public safety and CNN employee (yeap, he works for CNN) Cedric L. Alexander said “…an attack on an officer is an attack on you and your community.”

Hawaii: The city of Honolulu destroyed $575-thousand USD worth of brand new never used 9mm police pistols despite a tradition of auctioning off unwanted weapons to the 2-thousand 2-hundred person police force.

Idaho: After numerous accusations by prisoners and counselors, the Department of Corrections admits they place people into cells with no beds or toilets, called ‘dry cells’.  Police state administrators swear they won’t do it anymore.  In Meridian, an investigation into why a police SUV collided with a civilian SUV in a lighted intersection.  Two eastern Idaho police shootings were declared suicide by cop,  two other police shootings resulted in injuries and were declared justified. 

Illinois: A manhunt continues for whomever led a 32 years veteran cop into an ambush.  The rebels shot and killed the cop then took the cop’s own weapon and pepper spray.  The veteran cop was described as “GI Joe” by the mayor of Fox Lake.  Why was it so easy to lure a veteran “GI Joe” cop into an ambush?  An NBC News reporter has questioned the incongruities of the official Fox Lake Police Department statements: As Manhunt For Slain Illinois Officer Continues, Unanswered Questions Remain

Indiana: “…privacy activist who has filed hundreds of public records requests to learn about how cell-site simulators are used nationwide had a request denied earlier this week by the Indiana State Police….releasing the requested information constitutes a possible risk to terrorism or even ‘agricultural terrorism.'”

New Jersey: In Newark, a carjacking ended in a standoff, which resulted in one underaged suspect dead and five arrested.

Ohio: A Twinsburg cop shot and killed a 76 years old man after responding to a domestic disturbance.  Apparently the man shot and wounded his own wife and killed his son.  In Dayton, a man was pulled over by a paranoid cop “Because you made direct eye contact with me and held onto it while I was passing you on Salem.”

Oregon: In Eugene, police SWAT responded to a strangely behaving man who was periodically firing off rounds from a rifle (apparently he would step outside of his home, shoot, put the gun down and go back inside).  Instead of doing what NAZI cops around the U.S. do, they aimed to wound the man using what local news reports called a “less than lethal round”.   The man was treated at the scene, and it turns out he had warrants for his arrest anyway.

Pennsylvania: Philadelphia says it’s short 2-hundred cops. Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey wants taxpayers to fork out more bucks to increase salaries, and he wants to dumb down qualifications to be a cop.   Now realize that a Susquehanna Township Police Sergeant recently killed himself after being caught robbing his estranged wife and trying to frame her boyfriend!  An off-duty cop was killed while riding his motorcycle, by a hit and run car driver.  A tow truck driver captured the hit and run driver.

South Carolina: A former police chief is under house arrest after his murder trial ended in a mistrial. However, he pled guilty to misconduct.  For some unknown reason the police chief got an arrest warrant for his victim then killed him as he was driving away in his truck.  The city has settled a wrongful death suit with the family.  Another family is asking the state Supreme Court to take action regarding the death of their son.  An independent autopsy showed that cops shot him twice from behind as he was sitting in his car in the parking lot of a Hardee’s fast food joint.   Cops claimed the man was trying to run them over.   A Columbia cop was fired after being involved in a fight and shootout at a nightclub. 

Tennessee: In Memphis, a man was shot five times and rushed to a hospital, police refuse to give news media any info. 

Texas:  Video shows a man with his hands up being shot dead by two Bexar County sheriff deputies.   Bexar County District Attorney commanded civilians not “rush to judgment”.   In Clyde, police now say a cop was murdered in his own home: “The circumstances behind his death indicate that the probable cause is homicide. Aside from that, I’m not going to comment any further….”-Stan Standridge, Abilene police chief

Virginia: Two Norfolk cops now facing embezzlement charges.  Court documents say the tax-sucking cops were charging for hours they did not work.  Prince William County police arrested an 18 years old for driving a car made up to look like a cop car. The dumb wanna-be cop tried to pull over a real cop!

Washington: A judge decided that an Olympia cop will not be charged with assault after shooting a man he claimed was threatening him with a skateboard.  Instead the skateboard assault artist will be charged.  In Vancouver, a cop dog (K9) was stabbed to death after a confrontation with a man who has multiple arrest warrants. 

Wisconsin: “…I am too pissed off tonight to be diplomatic about what’s going on…..I said last December that war had been declared on the American police officer led by some high profile people, one of them coming out of the White House, and one coming out of the United States Department of Justice….it’s open season right now….”-David A. Clarke Jr., Milwaukee County Sheriff
