THE GIST * A neurologist and other scientists argue animals are capable of having spiritual experiences. * The researchers hold that spiritual experiences originate within primitive parts of the human brain, structures shared by animals. * The challenge lies in proving what animals experience. Spiritual experiences originate within primitive parts of the human brain, structures shared by animals, Chimpanzees may confront death in a lot of the same ways we do, researchers suggest. Animals (not just people) likely have spiritual experiences, according to a prominent neurologist who has analyzed the processes of spiritual sensation for over three decades. Research suggests that ...

The man, Robert Maley, 25, of Chandler, had let the pair suck his blood before. But on Monday, he refused, and was stabbed in the left arm, police said. He was living with Aaron Homer, 24, and Amanda Williamson, 21, also of Chandler. The pair are "into vampire stuff and paganism," the stab victim is quoted as telling police in the report. "He had allowed them to suck his blood one time, but did not want them to suck his blood any ...

Joseph Sobran, 1946–2010

With sadness, I report the death of an old and cherished friend, Joe Sobran. Joe wrote and edited for National Review until he and William F. Buckley, Jr., had a falling out; he had a long-running engagement with CBS Radio as a commentator; and he wrote a syndicated newspaper column. For most of his life, Joe was one of those rare conservatives who actually had and lived by sincere conservative values, rather than merely mouthing the usual banal conservative views and readily throwing principles overboard whenever an opportunity to influence or wield state power presented itself. Late in life, he embraced philosophical anarchism, having given up all hope that the state would ever do ...

I was walking past the mental hospital the other day and all the patients were shouting, '13....13....13.' The fence was too high to see over, but I saw a little gap in the planks, so I looked through to see what was going on..... Some idiot poked me in the eye with a stick! Then they all started shouting '14....14....14'..

[Hey Kiddies!] The hot Halloween costume for 2010

Tragedy + time = comedy, the old maxim goes. But in this world where the 24-hour news cycle compresses time, we tend to look at tragedies in the not-too-distant past as ancient history, and as such, fair game for comedy. Enter “Bad Planning,” my pick for what will be this year’s hot costume, a getup that consists of oil-spattered British Petroleum work overalls with a dead oil-encrusted plastic fish and an oily wrench. I’m sure some people’s first reaction to the costume will be disgust – how could anyone make light of a fairly recent catastrophic natural disaster, on Halloween no less. But I see the costume as a means for folks to mock BP (the BP logo on the ...

Elderly Woman Shoots 12-Year-Old BoyBoy Is Charged With Crime, Woman Is Not CHICAGO (CBS) A shooting on the city's Southeast Side has people telling two entirely different stories.

The boy who was shot, along with another boy, 13, are cited in juvenile delinquency petitions with one count each of misdemeanor aggravated assault to a senior citizen, according to police.

Have you learned anything? Are you getting accustomed to your 'information sources'. When the NWO really 'KICKS IN' do you think you'll have your Blackberry, your I-Phone, your Internet connection? There is a whole generation that know nothing but the above. Remember "Desert Storm" (GHWB)?. The first thing attacked was "COMMUNICATION". Try to imagine no forums, no e-mail, no cell phone calls, no land line calls. Just a soup can and some string perhaps.

Owner of Segway Machines Dies on a Segway Jimi Heselden, the British multi-millionaire entrepreneur and owner of the Segway company has died age 62. British police say they believe Mr. Heselden died while testing an all-terrain equipped Segway and lost control and drove the machine off a cliff near his estate in Leeds. Worth an estimated quarter of a billion dollars, Mr. Heselden was a miner who made his fortune inventing the Hesco "Bastion" barrier---a tall wire cage cube that is filled with rocks and dirt for a make-shift defensive wall. The Hesco Bastion's are employed at NATO military outposts all around Afghanistan and the Pentagon has spent more than $50 ...
