We now know what to call the mysterious object from interstellar space that zoomed past Earth last month. The interloper — the first known interstellar body observed within our own solar system — has been named 'Oumuamua, which means "a messenger from afar arriving first" in Hawaiian, representatives of the International Astronomical Union (IAU) announced yesterday (Nov. 14). The IAU also approved an official scientific designation for 'Oumuamua: 1I/2017 U1. This is a first-of-its-kind moniker; the "I" stands for "interstellar." Previously, small objects like 'Oumuamua have received standard comet or asteroid designations, which sport ...

Ten years from now, people could look at their local news reporting and wonder how it ever went so wrong. You’ve heard of fake news? You ain’t seen nothing yet. What would happen if the politician you love to hate were indicted, but your local news didn’t report it? No newspaper stories, no TV news, no radio news on the hour, nothing. Couldn’t happen? Think again. The Republican-controlled Federal Communications Commission voted on Nov. 16 to allow just one corporation to own the local newspaper plus nearly every commercial TV station in your town. Nifty way to reduce down to just one newsroom then dictate whatever information that corporation does — and does not ...

Sites log your keystrokes and mouse movements in real time, before you click submit. If you have the uncomfortable sense someone is looking over your shoulder as you surf the Web, you're not being paranoid. A new study finds hundreds of sites—including microsoft.com, adobe.com, and godaddy.com—employ scripts that record visitors' keystrokes, mouse movements, and scrolling behavior in real time, even before the input is submitted or is later deleted. Session replay scripts are provided by third-party analytics services that are designed to help site operators better understand how visitors interact with their Web properties and identify specific pages that are confusing or ...

As reporters have began to sift through the thousands of newly revealed government documents relating to the assassination of President Kennedy and subsequent investigation, we are starting to see some stunning revelations concerning not only JFK but the overall mindset of the CIA at the time in their all out war against Communism. One of the more scary revelations to come out so far details a copy of a paper on “Pretexts” for war with Cuba that described a plan, under Operation Mongoose, to conduct false flag terror attacks in Miami, to be blamed on Cuba but actually carried out by the Central Intelligence Agency. “Operation Mongoose” was the operational name for ...

Chicago, IL — In August, Chicago police officer Marco Proano told a jury that when he fired 16 shots into a car full of unarmed teenagers, that was not threatening him, he was just doing his job. However, the dashcam video was so ‘gruesome’ that a jury did not agree. After only a 4 hour deliberation, Proana became the exception to the rule by actually getting convicted for his crimes. Proano was found guilty on two felony counts of using excessive force in violating the victims’ civil rights. He was facing a maximum of 10 years in prison on each count but moments ago, he was sentenced to just 5 years. Given Chicago’s irresponsible and incredible ability to utterly ...

Women are attracted to confident men comfortable with their masculinity, according to a new study which debunks third-wave feminism and its war on testosterone.Researchers analyzed the user-submitted rankings of men whose photos were uploaded to TubeCrush, a British hot-or-not-type site, and found that “macho men, particularly ones in suits, still reign supreme on the totem pole of sexual attraction.”“Popular images also often made sure to focus on a man’s biceps, pectorals, and chest, particularly if he was muscular in those areas,” the study concluded. “Many accompanying comments also emphasized a man’s physique and supposed sexual prowess, the ...

Being a trucker – especially an owner-operator – used to be a lot like being a cowboy was back in the 1800s.On your own timetable, beholden to none – so long as the cows (or the cargo) got where they needed to be on time. Independent, free.Which, naturally, is why both avocations had to be stomped.Cowboys became ranch hands, no longer free to roam.But at least they aren’t subject to 24-7 recording of their doings – as truckers soon will be. It will be done via something called an Electronic Logging Device (ELD) which is basically a mobile, in-truck Panopticon – a rig for the rig that sees all and knows all – and narcs all, to the Appropriate ...

General says he'd deny 'illegal' order for nuke strike Fox News military analyst Oliver North reacts on 'Fox & Friends.' Just a day after the U.S.’s top nuclear commander said he would resist President Trump’s order if he called for an “illegal” nuclear launch, a fiery debate emerged about the president’s authority to order the firing of a warhead. Brian McKeon, a senior policy adviser in the Pentagon during the Obama administration, said a president's first recourse would be to tell the defense secretary to order the reluctant commander to execute the launch order. "And then, if the commander still resisted," McKeon said ...

Free Thought Project – by Jay Syrmopoulos Las Vegas – In another strange twist to the largest mass-shooting in recent U.S. history, a damning report indicates that the parent company of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, MGM Resorts International, is paying crisis management firm Joele Frank to spread disinformation about the massacre online.

20,000 DWI Cases May Be Thrown Out After Cop Arrested for Tampering With Breathalyzers

More than 20,000 drivers in the state of New Jersey could have DWI charges wiped from their record because a police officer was caught tampering with multiple breathalyzer machines. Last year, Sgt. Marc Dennis, a coordinator in the New Jersey State Police Alcohol Drug Testing Unit, was accused of skipping a vital step in the calibration of breathalyzers on multiple occasions. It has not been specified in police reports whether or not Dennis had malicious intent. However, given how quickly criminal charges were brought against him, it seems that this is far more than a simple oversight. While Dennis denies the accusations, he was allegedly identified tampering with these machines ...

Helter skelter: The history of Charles Manson and rock 'n' roll

Charles Manson, one of the world’s most notorious killers, pined to be one of the world’s greatest rock stars. Manson, who died Sunday at age 83, may have been known to most people as a manipulative cult leader and a ruthless murderer, responsible for ordering the slaughter of eight people in 1969, including actress Sharon Tate and her unborn child. But his reign of terror exploited a specific, and powerful, movement in pop culture. He enticed the young, largely female followers who made up his cult by twisting the language of ’60s hippies and by recasting the native excitement of rock ‘n’ roll for his own purposes.When Manson formed his gang, dubbed “The ...

The outcome of this case may bring clarity to the property rights of Americans living in the shadow of police militarization.Leo Lech owns a property parcel at 4219 South Alton Street in Greenwood Village, a sleepy suburban enclave tucked between Denver's bustling Tech Center and the scenic reservoir of Cherry Creek State Park. His quarter-acre plot rests near the end of a quaint cul-de-sac that fits every idyllic American stereotype: two-car garages, well-manicured lawns, the stars and stripes waving in front of each home. While most houses on this block were built in the 1970s, Lech's is brand new: It received a certificate of occupancy in August after two years of construction. ...
