‘The abolition of the African slave trade put Britain in a dilemma: Its economic engine still depended on slavery to run. So it looked to India, the Empire’s jewel in the crown, which had millions of unemployed laborers who could not read or write. Signed up by a thumb print, hundreds of thousands were shipped […]

‘All parents of children in public and private schools would have to undergo social services background checks when enrolling their kids in school in Ohio under a new proposed state law. The bill by State Senator Capri S. Cafaro (D-Youngstown) specifically exempts most homeschoolers, although it doesn’t exempt homeschool families who form what is called […]

‘If you’re a homeless person in Wichita, Kansas, City Councilman Pete Meitzner and his associates at The Lord’s Diner will feed you. If you’re caught with a joint and locked up at the Sedgwick County Detention Facility, Meitzner and his political associates will feast on you – and any relatives who try to call you […]

‘The Israel Defense Forces is planning to install Iron Dome missile defense batteries on board its advanced warships to protect the country’s gas drilling platforms. The installation of the interceptors is an interim solution that would remain in place until new ships meant to protect the rigs arrive from Germany in 2019. The ships were […]

‘This year’s best spy thriller isn’t fiction – it’s history. David Talbot’s previous book, the bestseller “Brothers: The Hidden History of the Kennedy Years” explored Robert F. Kennedy’s search for the truth following his brother’s murder. His new work, “The Devil’s Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the CIA, and the Rise of America’s Secret Government,” zooms out […]

‘A powerful explosion has rocked a building in the Belgian town of Verviers, almost completely destroying its facade, local media reports. Authorities will now demolish the structure. At least 14 people have suffered as a result of the explosion. Witnesses have posted numerous photos on Twitter, which showed three floors of the building had been […]

With the 115 year old tradition of the annual Army-Navy football classic on Saturday, the so-called “America’s game” and “rivalry for the ages” is now once again upon us. This occasion never fails to pay reverent homage to America’s so-called “cream of the crop” elitist military academies and always from the president to celebrities Americans give tribute to our armed forces. At this time we hear that familiar patriotic mantra “support our troops” mindlessly repeated. So it seems appropriate now to take a cold hard look to examine what it actually means to “support our troops.” As both a West Point graduate and critic of … Continue reading →

Proponents claim Basic Income can be paid by redirecting existing welfare programs, but a quick review reveals this as nonsense. Finland made the news recently by proposing a pilot program of guaranteed income for all, also known as Universal Basic Income: Desperate Finland Set To Unleash Helicopter Money Drop To All Citizens. The goal is two-fold: by providing every household with a minimum income, regardless of what other income the individuals might earn, the program does two things: it provides everyone enough money to get by and it removes the disincentive to work inherent in the conventional welfare model: in … Continue reading →

Picture this. You’re driving down the highway with your nine-year-old son. You’re in the middle lane. On your right, one behind the other, are two buses. The bus in front is painted white. The bus behind is painted yellow. The bus in front has its windows painted over. The bus behind does not. Your son asks you a question. “What are those two buses, Daddy?” You tell him that they are two very different kinds of buses. ” How are the different?” he asks. You explain that on the first bus are prisoners who are being taken to jail. On … Continue reading →

By Dr. Mercola Sleep is such an important part of your overall health that no amount of healthful food and exercise can counteract the ill effects of poor sleeping habits. Researchers have linked poor sleep to a number of ailments, from short-term memory loss and behavioral problems, to weight gain, diabetes, and even increased risk of cancer, just to mention a few. Yet while most of the literature emphasizes the ramifications of insufficient sleep, research shows too much sleep isn’t good either.1 Studies have linked excessive sleep to health risks ranging from depression to an increased risk for stroke, just … Continue reading →

Originally published by AmmoLand.com. Louisiana – Islam declared war on unarmed civilians. It is the muslim way, after all. We’ve watched our politician dither. What should ordinary citizens like us do? Despite their heartfelt desire, Police and Sheriff’s Deputies cannot be everywhere to protect us. Law enforcement does their best, but we need to protect ourselves until help arrives. We have. Armed citizens stopped mass murder. Ordinary people like you and me saved lives time after time. Sure, President Obama wants us disarmed. He is wrong. Ordinary citizens like us are the secret weapon in the defense against terrorism and mass … Continue reading →

The verdicts in the case of Oscar Pistorius, and the reasoning behind them, seem to me curious. Either Pistorius was guilty of murdering his girlfriend or he was guilty of nothing. I don’t know whether there is anyone who needs to be told who Pistorius is. His surname makes him sound like a terribly boring Dutch legal theorist of the 17th century, but in fact he is a South African athlete with no legs who, in front of huge crowds, runs very fast on sophisticated blades attached to his stumps. In 2013 he shot his glamorous-model girlfriend dead through the … Continue reading →

During the Middle Ages, Black Knights began to appear in history and, since the 13th century, a series of legends mentioning the mysterious Black Knights emerged. Although the Black Knights were said to have carried out good deeds and fought to protect cities from unjust rulers and other threats, texts referring to these legends were censored and banned by the Church during the medieval period. Nevertheless, the story of the legendary knight Ashor endured over the centuries. The origin of Black Knights is closely linked to the legend of Ashor, a knight who had remained skilled and strong, despite his advanced … Continue reading →

My interest in Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol began one Christmas eve when, as a small child, my parents turned on network radio to listen to what, even then, had become a classic Christmas eve festivity: Lionel Barrymore’s presentation of the Dickens story. Radio was a medium that required the imagination to paint scenes far more colorful, and to concoct monsters far scarier, than anything motion pictures or television have ever been able to present. With radio, the listener was the stage designer, costumer, and location director. In later years, I watched Alistair Sim’s movie version of the story – … Continue reading →
