Here's an update on the car explosion that occurred not far from the Lincoln Tunnel:

"Authorities have discounted initial suspicions that the blast was related to a domestic dispute, Rehmann said."

My polling place is at a school as well. I really hope the authorities have this information.

I've said before we need to protect the polls. It would take but one or two incidents to scare the sheeple away from the poles. That would really mess up the election.

Worrisome.

Any ideas on how we can help protect against polling attacks?

Call me a pessimist, but I believe it is a done deal.

Unfortunately- I believe the weapons are already in this country- assembled, and waiting to be triggered at the appropriate time.

Authorities Hunt Keg of Potent Chemical That Fell From Truck in North Dakota (10/7/04 Sodium Cyanide)

The Associated Press Published: Oct 7, 2004 DEVILS LAKE, N.D. (AP) - Three drums filled with sodium cyanide fell off a truck, and one barrel remains missing. Authorities said beekeepers planned to use the dangerous chemical as a pesticide and could be fined.

The Ramsey County sheriff's office has declined to say how or when the kegs of sodium cyanide disappeared or who was involved, citing the pending investigation.

Farmers found two 30-gallon kegs alongside a state highway east of Devils Lake on Sept. 30. The missing barrel, half that size, is believed to have fallen off the back of the truck somewhere between Devils Lake, in the east-central part of the state, and Cavalier, near the state's northeast corner.

The container weighs more than 100 pounds and is labeled with the chemical's name and a skull and crossbones. The chemical was being brought into the state by beekeepers to sterilize equipment and kill bees at the season's end, said Andrew Thostenson, North Dakota State University pesticide specialist.

Sodium cyanide reacts with water to create lethal hydrogen cyanide gas, which can kill a person in five minutes, he said.

"It isn't illegal to possess the compound, but it also isn't registered as a pesticide anywhere in the United States, so its appearance in North Dakota should throw up red flags," Thostenson said. The beekeepers could be fined up to $6,000, said Jeff Olson, a program manager at the state Agriculture Department. He said department officials investigated and were surprised to find that use of the chemical as a pesticide was widespread, with 18 kegs shipped into the state. Its disappearance attracted the attention of the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security. "The people in homeland security and the FBI are not amused," Thostenson said. Sodium cyanide is registered for use in the commercial chrome plating and in mining for extracting gold and silver from ore.

We know the dems won't have a clue, so it's up to us.

I'd say be alert. Have cell phone handy to call in anything suspicious.

But vote, we must!

Jackson airport officials destroy bag after passenger lies about identity
http://www.ledger-enquirer.com/mld/ledgerenquirer/news/local/9860379.htm

(snip)Lauren Stover, eastern director of public affairs for the Transportation Security Administration, said the passenger told airport employees he worked for the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics but when airport officials asked to see his badge, the passenger said he misrepresented his job affiliation.

"Therefore, we felt it prudent to take a look at the bag," Stover said.

The bag was destroyed with a water cannon on a stairwell in the airport, Rowlett said.

Stover said the bag was then examined and found to have wires, a telephone battery, tweezers and a cassette player.

Rowlett said the passenger told officials that the suspicious item in the bag was a phone charger, but the item didn't match the phone that the passenger was carrying.(snip)
