PressTV... The largely unknown leader of the Takfiri terrorist group ISIL has declared himself “caliph” of Islam and rightful ruler of the world’s nearly two billion Muslims. Al-Baghdadi’s declaration was met with a barrage of ridicule. Observers pointed out that al-Baghdadi declared himself Caliph while wearing a Rolex wristwatch – a symbol of enslavement to Western materialist consumer culture. Muslim scholarly authorities – even those deluded enough to support the “Syrian rebels” – have unanimously repudiated Baghdadi’s bogus caliphate. Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the best-known pro-Syrian-rebels TV scholar, dismissively rejected ...

"Simple Song" It's a simple song for simple feeling You see the moon and watch it rise Across the continent the night bird sings And somewhere someone hears its cry So disillusioned Keep your head down If you do they'll never know You'll have no answers to their questions And they will have to let you go And disenfranchised Revolution They'll take away by right what's yours And make you martyrs of your own cause When they don't know what cause it's for And all deserted Stand alerted They'll love you when you're all alone But you find a red rose in the morning light You wait the night and find it gone So hear my words with faith and ...

Fan who fell asleep during Yankees-Red Sox game suing for $10 million By Mike Oz July 7, 2014 4:31 PM Big League Stew A New York Yankees fan is hoping that a mid-game nap could net him $10 million. Andrew Rector, 26, fell asleep during the April 13 game between the Yankees and the rival Boston Red Sox. It was nationally televised on ESPN, and Rector was noticed by cameras and talked about by commentators John Kruk and Dan Shulman. Video of Rector — titled "Tired fan naps in the stands" — was then published to MLB.com and YouTube. People on the Internet made fun of Rector (shocking, right?) and now he's filed a defamation lawsuit against the Yankees, MLB, ESPN, ...

ScienceAlert... A new study has provided proof that listening to a new language while you sleep can reinforce prior learning. learning A team led by biopsychologist Björn Rasch from the Swiss National Science Foundation enlisted 60 German-speaking students to test how sleeping affected their Dutch language lessons. They all sat down and learned a number of Dutch words until 10pm, at which point half of the volunteers were told to go to bed and the other half had to stay up. The sleeping half had the words they’d just learned played back to them while they were in non-rapid eye movement sleep - otherwise known as a dreamless sleep. The other half stayed up till 2am and also had ...

94 percent of tuna and more than three quarters of sushi samples in New York City mislabeled New Study Shows 59% of “Tuna” Sold in the U.S. Isn’t Tuna by Michael Krieger |Liberty Blitzkrieg | July 2, 2014 This is just the latest revelation in the stealth inflation and food fraud themeI have written about frequently in recent months.

Carlyle Group’s Latest Acquisition: the JFK Library (!)

WhoWhatWhy... Some things you truly cannot make up. Like this: the museum and archives celebrating and exploring the life (if not really wanting to investigate the death) of John F. Kennedy is getting a facelift—courtesy of….the Carlyle Group. This development was noted, without much fanfare, in a variety of major media. If there was a smidgen of irony, I missed it. Yet, consider this: The ultimate globe-girdling corporation is playing a major role in preserving the memory of a president who at the time of his death was engaged in what may be described as mortal combat with outfits not unlike Carlyle—if smaller and less global. (I write about this in my book Family of ...

WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS — SWAT officer Charlie Eipper lowered his head to his rifle, peered through his Simmons scope, searched for his target, and fired. When he killed a man in the line of duty on Jan. 10, 1999, he was confident that Jesus Christ condoned — even supported — his use of deadly force. He spelled out his convictions — and the Bible’s support for them — in his book “Jesus Christ on Killing,” self-published March 5. The book is available on Amazon. Eipper has considered himself a professional warrior in the service of his country for the past 23 years. He served three years as a helicopter pilot in the Army, then 16 years on the Wichita ...
