***Have you seen My NOT kinda town on FNC today?!***

I was hoping Immigration and "Homeland Security" would be there taping the protesters. Politicians are noticeably silent about the protests - none wanting to risk losing the Hispanic vote.

Yep JP, things are completely out of hand. Wondering if there is a time frame for the US, Mexico and Canada to merge? The lack of attention to our borders seems to be a superficial issue for most politicians, except some on the border states. Since the US gave billions to Pakistan for their security, it makes no sense whatsoever we'd be ignoring (or putting small bandaids on) our own.

>> the Saudi government, which will send about 6,000 students to American universities this year <<

This makes me want to pull out what little hair I'm still able to grow. On the upside, at least I'm one of the few that REALLY know what's happening. Being an ant is sometimes burdensome, but it beats the alternative.

Thanks for the info folks!

Off Topic: Rice Krispies with beef

Snip: Kellog's breakfast cereal adulterated with beef products. The following information comes from the Kellog's website, where information reveals that several of the popular snack products that appear to be vegetarian are actually not.

Club clears after chemical find

Snip: Seven patrons suffered breathing difficulties after being exposed to the unknown chemical, which was found in the male and female toilets of the Hunter Street club overnight, police said. Emergency crews, including the police hazardous materials unit, helped to evacuate about 500 patrons and staff.

Biological and chemical weapon info

Snip: Bioterrorism. Germ warfare. Chemical agents. All are names for a different type of warfare, one in which the enemy is microscopic and deadly.

Sydney female Muslim convert linked to bomb plot, murderer

A woman charged at the weekend with plotting to bomb Sydney was a convert to Islam who planned the attack at the behest of a jailed murderer angered over anti-Muslim race riots here late last year. Jill Courtney, 26, was arrested at her suburban Sydney home on Friday in a swoop by Federal and local police operating under anti-terrorism laws.

Rabid racoon found in Ft. Lauderdale

Confirmation of mad cow disease finding in Alabama

Snip: The fact that the Alabama cow veterinarians detected, and later confirmed, as carrying BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy), or more commonly referred to as mad cow disease, was likely at least 10 years old may be the best news out of the latest discovery of the disease.

Moore says mad cow timing odd

Snippets: Republican gubernatorial candidate Roy Moore said Friday it was a "strange coincidence" that mad cow disease was found in Alabama just as government officials want to start an animal-identification system.

"This is not to track disease. The precept is for tracking disease," he said, "but it will cause small farmers to be run out of business, small animal owners."

"Saddam Planned To Deploy 'Camels Of Mass Destruction' (Free Republic Mention)"
The Telegraph (UK) ^ | 3-26-2006 | James Langton

Posted on 03/25/2006 6:23:46 PM PST by blam

"Saddam planned to deploy 'camels of mass destruction'"

By James Langton
(Filed: 26/03/2006)


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The papers have been translated by Arabic-speaking members of Free Republic, a conservative internet discussion forum that believes the documents will justify British and American claims that Saddam had made Iraq a haven for terrorists.

If the translation is correct, it suggests that many of the foreign fighters now attacking coalition forces and bombing Iraqi civilians were directly trained by the Saddam regime, although there are no known reports of camels being used in suicide attacks."

Police Slice Open Six Camels in Drug Haul
Reuters ^ | Tue, Nov 30, 2004

Posted on 11/30/2004 7:55:29 AM PST by presidio9

Iranian police seized 18 kilograms of opium after cutting open the stomachs of six camels, which are being increasingly used to carry narcotics from Afghanistan, media reported Tuesday.

Iran is one of the world's key narcotics thoroughfares, carrying opiates from Afghanistan to Europe. It boasts 25 percent of opium seizures worldwide.

The official IRNA news agency said police in the central city of Nain slaughtered the camels which they found in the back of a truck pulled over at a checkpoint.

The bellies of four animals yielded drugs and the truck driver was arrested.

Networks of forts and ramparts across Iran's eastern borders have forced drug dealers back to more traditional methods, carrying narcotics through narrow mountain passes in rucksacks and camels' saddle-bags.

Hong Kong firm defends plans to help screen US bound ships

Snip: Some U.S. lawmakers and security experts have expressed concern about the contract for Hutchison Whampoa Ltd. because American customs agents will not be working with the screening equipment, designed to detect smuggled radioactive materials. The Hong Kong company is in the final stages of being awarded a no-bid, $6 million contract from the United States for screening at the Freeport Container Terminal in the Bahamas, just 65 miles from the American shoreline.

Citrus greening found in cape

Snip: State agriculture officials have confirmed a case of citrus greening at a residence in northwest Cape Coral, according to a map posted by the state agriculture department.

They would not release the address of the case due to security issues — the disease has the potential to be used as a bioterrorism weapon, although it is harmless to humans.

Security blitz held at Miami Airport

Snip: Authorities arrested five illegal immigrants, searched more than 650 vehicles and wrote nearly 50 tickets at Miami International Airport to catch threats to airport security, immigration officials said Friday.

Canada jails Muslims for security reasons

Snip: Currently, four Muslim immigrants are being held in Canadian jails pending deportation, and a fifth is subject to strict bail conditions. The five were arrested under provisions of the Immigration and Refugee Act, providing for issuance of security certificates.

Bad dog food

Snip: WINNIPEG — A Gimli woman is grieving her dog that was euthanized after getting sick from eating a bad batch of tinned pet food. Christine Smith says she had her six-year-old collie-cross, Molly, put down when the pet suffered kidney failure from its diet of Royal Canin pet food, a brand sold exclusively through veterinarians.

The parent company for the makers of the pet food, Mars Inc. in Hackettstown, N.J., recalled seven lines of its Royal Canin dog and cat foods after discovering an error in the vitamin formula from one of its suppliers.

Heinz rice baby cereal genetically engineered

Snip: Heinz won't recall products. One year after the Sudan I incident, international food producer Heinz is suffering from another credit crisis after the news came out that non-approved genetically engineered rice was detected in the company's baby rice cereal. In a recent business trip to Guangzhou, Heinz China's newly appointed CEO Donald Gadsden said that up to now, no genetically engineered elements were found in the company's products. All products produced by Heinz are safe to eat and there is no need to recall them.

Thank you for the "first person" account of sharing ones stocked goods with "others." It's definitely something to be comtemplated.

Bought clothesline for the eventuality there would be no electricity in a disaster. Today I searched for clothespins (they were difficult to locate). Little by little we become prepared.

Re #1792

When I was down in Florida last month, the campground I was staying at had a raccoon problem. Didn't know it until I got there. Clyde was vigilant and kept them away from my camp site, but they would regularly raid other sites. They were not afraid of people, even in the daylight. It was the KOA Sugarloaf campground @ mile marker 20 on US 1.

Even up my way, rabid animals are becoming predominant. If you see a nocturnal animal in the daylight, STAY AWAY.

>> Little by little we become prepared. <<

That's how we ALL get it done MD. I continue to rethink my plans. Soon I will have 'stashes' at 2 different sites. I will be searching for more.

As Granny has stated before, the best option is to stay put, but I prefer to be ready to move it I have to. Once on the road you are MUCH more vulnerable.

Prepositioning supplies in multiple locations gives me options. I like options.
