[Non-Ebola List]
[A warning to numerous newcomers on ping list — I don’t read much online carefully. Only my quotes are somewhat careful. I jump to presumptions that are almost always correct {but once in a blue moon, I mess up big-time}. Good example was yesterday’s ‘Supreme Court Opposed to Voter-ID’. That was a tweaked headline. I worried about ‘getting it wrong’ all day after leaving internet. But it was sadly correct.]

Supreme Court’s blockage of WI voter ID law only temporary, election reform expert says
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3213897/posts
The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday may have blocked Wisconsin’s voter identification law, but an election reform expert is calling the decision purely procedural and expects the requirement to be in place at some point in the future. The high court didn’t give a reason for its decision in a brief order overruling the U.S. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, but three of the nine justices who dissented said there is a “colorable basis” for the court’s conclusion due to the proximity of the upcoming general election Nov. 4. Justices Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas,... [snip]

“When the Ebola case was diagnosed, we went in to crisis mode,” Ed Garcia, the managing director of Firestone Liberia, recently told NPR. In a saga that commentator Scott Ott characterizes as one of “an evil capitalist corporation” springing into action for the commonwealth, Firestone employees in Liberia stopped the spread of Ebola in their area by taking quick actions after an employee showed symptoms of the deadly disease. When no hospital in the area could take the stricken woman, Firestone staff built an onsite treatment center in record time. The Firestone employees set up an Ebola ward so quickly... [snip]

Ebola bumper stickers greet Obama’s arrival in southern California [ebOla]

President Obama’s arrival in southern California Thursday was greeted by a ripple of discontent about the administration’s handling of the Ebola epidemic. Bumper stickers reading “EBOLA,” with the middle letter replaced by the iconic Obama campaign “O,” have appeared on cars in the Los Angeles area. Truth Revolt, a conservative news site, published photos of three cars with the stickers on Wednesday. The president’s fundraising trip begins Thursday night at the home of actress Gwyneth Paltrow. Several posters depicting actress Ms. Paltrow as an “Obama Drone” have surfaced near her Brentwood home.

Experts warn of ‘Ebola suicide bombers’
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3213809/posts
Militants from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) could turn themselves into Ebola “suicide bombers” against the Western world, terrorism experts have warned. ISIS or other terrorist groups could simply dispatch individuals to Ebola-infected areas in West Africa where they would intentionally infect themselves and then spread the virus through the world’s air transportation network. Capt. Al Shimkus, a professor of national security affairs at the U.S. Naval War College, said the scenario was plausible. “The individual exposed to the Ebola virus would be the carrier,” Shimkus told Forbes. “In the context of terrorist activity, it doesn’t take...

Ebola victims without symptoms can still be contagious
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3213599/posts
WND | JEROME R. CORSI
“A group of German medical doctors in a peer-reviewed medical journal article published by Oxford University Press have challenged a key assumption regarding the Ebola virus repeatedly asserted by Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. The researchers found that a patient showing no symptoms of the disease can still transmit a virus like Ebola by air if droplets containing the virus are transmitted to another person by a sneeze or cough. snip The German physicians, led by Dr. Timm H. Westhoff of the Department of Nephrology at the Carité Campus Benjamin Franklin...”
[Funny how Corsi always lays out an exhaustive case, but people just brush him off. Fuzzy memory alert: there is always a miniscule chance that someone without a fever might transmit any virus in his/her body. After all, trace amounts are there. It’s just a question of odds. A fever is the typical immune-response that the virus has risen to an alarming level.]
