Autonomous military
robots that will fight future wars must be programmed to live by a
strict warrior code, or the world risks untold atrocities at their
steely hands.
The
stark warning — which includes discussion of a "Terminator"-style
scenario in which robots turn on their human masters — is part of a
hefty report funded by and prepared for the U.S. Navy’s high-tech and
secretive Office of Naval Research. – [read more] Continue Reading ‘Experts Warn of 'Terminator'-Style Military-Robot Rebellion’
Gun owners are alarmed over what they’re witnessing in Washington, DC and state legislatures across the country. Realizing they could not succeed in disarming American citizens, Liberal organizations and their political representatives have decided to allow armed citizens to possess all the guns they wish. The hitch is, according to political strategist Mike Baker, the so-called gun-grabbers have decided to track ammunition for those guns by encoding the cartridges and maintaining a database.
I doubt very seriously this bill will pass, as Arizona will never follow in Kalifornicateya’s footsteps. Even so, do liberals actually think we patriots won’t trade ammunition, rendering tracking useless?

People often use the term “police state” without really knowing what it means. It really isn’t all that bad.
A police state is a society where the government undertakes the roles of parent, shop disciplinarian, generic organizer, approved implementer and punisher, all wrapped into one tax-supported bundle. The “police” term refers simply to the idea that the state will keep everything in society orderly and tidy and aligned to the same central goals.
Of course, you can’t really tolerate much individual deviation and arbitrary action, what some people call “freedom,” if you’re going to have a nicely functioning police state. To make it work, you need experts and government employees, who have been certified, to make most plans and guide most decisions. Honestly, you really wouldn’t want mere citizens running their own lives – too much chaos, not enough central planning.
To get yourself and your family ready for citizenship in a police state, post the following checklist on your refrigerator door. These 15 steps are not difficult, and the sooner you are prepared, the sooner the police state can step in to protect and save us all. [ PDF Document]

Decades after the imaginings of William Gibson (in his book Neuromancer) prompted the invent Virtual Reality and the way we navigate the Internet (according to some pundits), some MIT researchers have designed a device which can seamlessly channel Internet data into daily routines, and turn any surface of any object into a touchscreen for controlling computing by using simple hand gestures.
The ‘Sixth Sense’ device can look at a book shelf, a grocery store shelf or even an airplane ticket and provide you data about the subject (authors, prices, schedules, etc). This sounds very much like the ‘Virtual Light’ device (in the form of dark eye glasses) from William Gibson’s book of the same name.
"Other than letting some of you live out
your fantasy of looking as cool as Tom Cruise in ‘Minority Report’ it
can really let you connect as a sixth sense device with whatever is in
front of you," said MIT researcher Patty Maes. – [source] Continue Reading ‘MIT invents something like the Virtual Light device’

Barack Obama – who is due to be sworn in as president any minute now – says it looks like he’s keeping his beloved Blackberry, despite earlier and ongoing concerns that it represents both a legal and security risk.
Obama hasn’t elaborated on what’s changed since earlier reports indicated that the Secret Service would bring the hammer down on unapproved gadget use – including a standard cell phone. In an interview with CNN, Obama simply said, "I think we’re going to be able to hang onto one of these. Now, my working assumption, and this is not new, is that everything I write on e-mail could end up being on CNN. So I make sure to – to think before I press ‘send.’" Continue Reading ‘Attn Hackers: Obama's Keeping His Blackberry!’
Here is the comparison – the corollary – between the armed citizen and the lay administration of CPR.
1. In each case, discount the situation is one of grave danger, whether it is from medical emergency or violence. Cardiac arrest is generally fatal, and many crimes of violence do great bodily harm and become a fatality.
2. Each occurs in the absence of first responders, and is more life–threatening every second it evolves.
3. In each case, the citizen has full authority to act in agreement with public policy and interest.
4. In each case, the consequences of non-intervention are irrevocable and heartbreaking.
5. The very mobility and likelihood of a citizen presence improves the rapport between the government and the governed. How? Not by authorization, but by non-interference, thank you. Freedom. Call it less centralization of powers and no longer excluding the citizen from the process of a healthy and safe community.
6. Each is proven over decades of experience.

Researchers at Duke University, who developed a material that can “cloak” an item from detection by microwaves, report that they have expanded the number of wavelengths they can block.
“The new device can cloak a much wider spectrum of waves—nearly limitless—and will scale far more easily to infrared and visible light. The approach we used should help us expand and improve our abilities to cloak different types of waves,” senior
researcher David R. Smith said in a statement.
The new cloak is made up of more than 10,000 individual pieces of fiberglass arranged in parallel rows. The mathematical formulas are used to determine the shape and placement of each piece to deflect the electromagnetic waves.- [source]

The U.S. Military is warning of the potential sudden collapse of Mexico!
Mexico is one of two countries that "bear
consideration for a rapid and sudden collapse," according to a report
by the U.S. Joint Forces Command on worldwide security threats.
The command’s "Joint Operating Environment (JOE 2008)" report, which
contains projections of global threats and potential next wars, puts
Pakistan on the same level as Mexico.
"In terms of worse-case scenarios
for the Joint Force and indeed the world, two large and important
states bear consideration for a rapid and sudden collapse: Pakistan and
Mexico.- [source] Continue Reading ‘Lets go claim some beach front Mexican property’
It appears that all the raccoon I have eaten growing up in western Michigan wasn’t just because they were plentiful and we were hungry. Apparently they are tasty as well! (from personal experience, they are also very fatty, and you must parboil them long before you can eat)
"Good things come to those who wait," says A. Reed, 86, who has been eating raccoon since she was a girl."This
right here," she says, holding up a couple of brown packages tied with
burlap string, “this is a great value. And really good eatin’.
Best-kept secret around.”Raccoons go for $3 to $7 — each, not per pound — and will feed about five adults. Four, if they’re really hungry.Those who dine on raccoon meat sound the same refrain: It’s good eatin’.As
long as you can get past the "ick" factor that it’s a varmint, more
often seen flattened on asphalt than featured on a restaurant menu.
(One exception: French restaurant Le Fou Frog served raccoon about a
dozen years ago, a waiter said.)Eating varmints is even in vogue
these days, at least in Britain. The New York Times reported last week
that Brits are eating squirrels with wild abandon." – [source] Continue Reading ‘Raccoon – the other dark meat’
In recognition of the unprecedented demand for firearms by nervous
consumers, The Outdoor Wire has named President-elect Barack Obama its
"Gun Salesman of the Year". For me, it was a simple fact of recognizing
that without President-elect Obama’s frightening consumers into action,
the firearms industry might be suffering the same sort of business
slumps that have befallen the automotive and housing industries.
It’s credit where credit is due. Mr. Obama has consistently voted
against individual rights to firearms, appointed a re-tread Clinton
administration full of gun banners, and made it plain to anti-gun
groups that despite what he might say to the contrary, he’s on their
side That history, along with the unquestioned support of anti-gun
organizations has spooked consumers into a buying frenzy for firearms
that could be outlawed in another Assault Weapons Ban. - [read more] Continue Reading ‘Obama Called ''Best Gun Salesman of the Year''’
