Occupy livestreamers detained at gunpoint by police in Chicago

But..



The police never explained why the men were being detained but handcuffed and interrogated them, searched their car, repeatedly slammed one of their computer hard drives against the car floor, and attempted to delete their footage of the incident before it could be archived at Ustream



But it was too late. The attempt to delete the footage … well, it appears it did not work.

Three have been charged in Chicago .. police say the three NATO protesters planned to “commit terrorists acts” on Obama, police, and mayor’s home.


Yes, indeed. As mentioned earlier on this site.. it’s going to be a long NATO summit indeed.

More on the big Italy quake: Historic buildings hit with a lot of damage

Reuters reports on one man who died because he was at the right place.. at the wrong time:



A 57-year-old Italian was killed when part of an ironworks in Sant’ Agostino collapsed, and two men were killed in the same town when part of a ceramics factory collapsed. “He wasn’t supposed to be there. He changed shifts with a friend who wanted to go to the beach,” the mother of one of the victims said.



More on the big Italy quake: Historic buildings hit with a lot of damage

Excellent point and video from the website DutchSinse: Have a plan and be ready

Some mighty large quakes recently.


It’s not a bad idea to just have some notion of what you’d do in case of a dire emergency.. one that say, hasn’t hit since the 1300s….. Italy..


Excellent point and video from the website DutchSinse: Have a plan and be ready

This Reuters image showcases the amount of damage that took place in Italy—as a quake stronger than any in hundreds of years hit ..


The official summary of the photo:



The old tower is damaged after an earthquake in Finale Emilia May 20, 2012. A strong earthquake rocked a large swathe of northern Italy early on Sunday, killing at least three people and causing serious damage to the area’s cultural heritage. The epicentre of the 6.0 magnitude quake, the strongest to hit Italy in three years, was in the plains near Modena in the Emilia-Romagna region of the Po River Valley. REUTERS/Paolo Bona  



The magnitude was a 6.0. 

The earth is moving in Italy

Actually it seems lately that the unstable crust that houses our feet is moving everywhere.. But today,  one of the worst quakes to hit northeast Italy in hundreds of years rattled the region around Bologna early Sunday.  


A civil defense official told the AP that it was the worst earthquake since the 1300s..


More here..


The quickening just got quicker..

And it begins.


This image shows a NATO protester being arrested in Chicago .. Outright crackdown on protesters is set to begin by police, who have been warning for months that security was going to be tight.


Reports a few days back on local Chicago news indicated that a no fly zone will be in effect in Chicago for the duration of the NATO meeting.


A large demonstration in set for Chicago today.. police vs. protesters Match 1 set to begin some time during the next several hours..


An AP report illustrates the amount of tension that is already existent between both sides in Chicago.


And meanwhile, when the NATO summit begins, world leaders will be dealing with a potential breakup of the EU, war, and all that happy go lucky stuff…


Readers in Chicago: Keep in touch with me about what is going on. It’s going to be a long summit for many..

Ever feel like this? We all do sometimes

GHOST ADVENTURES Ayden edition

Saturday morning craziness here maybe for some followers of mine, but this morning while Tara and I were videoing Ayden in his post-casting of his leg and, to our surprise and his, he began to point around the room and become distracted by something.. He followed something with his eyes, his entire body moved to find whatever it was he was looking for. When we reviewed the tape…. mom and dad found a white orb-like object moving where Ayden looked.


Seriously.


It’s interesting because I am addicted to ghost shows on TV—with the exception of GHOST ADVENTURES, they just annoy me sometimes.. But with all my addiction aside I am typically quite scientific and skeptical of videos I see. I analyzed the video this morning of Ayden for the past hour.. I cannot debunk it.


That in itself does not mean it is authentic or real.. I am choosing not to post it on here simply because.. well.. I don’t know what it would be that I am posting and don’t want to go onto a limb that cannot support the weight of any argument. *I did post below a little screen cap of Ayden Morris searching the room with his eyes*


It is interesting though.. In October 2010, I had a VERY brief glimpse of a strange fast moving object in the sky that seemingly vanished into thin air. My dog Bailey was still alive, but sadly she couldn’t share in my outright joy of finally seeing a UFO after years of wanting to.. On the flip side, I never really wanted to see a ghost. But if they are real, well, I suppose then the chances of us seeing one increase. Maybe having a child also do well in increasing the likelihood of strange activities? …


…I am followed on here by agnostics, atheists, Christians, pagans, and witches. I love that about who follows me.. and who I follow. So you may focus your point of view on this post and either laugh at me, think I’m crazy, or want to send me strange powders and creams to protect the house. 


Frankly, I don’t know what it is that showed up… dust? A glowing orb? A spirit?…


Or just nothing?… I don’t know


Do you venture to say you do?

Here's one link I left out of the previous update

Read it and weep.

Texas CPS takes child from parents because of their recreational drug use and then goes on to destroy the child with ravaging psychotropic drugs!

"There’s paperwork saying she was screaming for mommy and daddy," Rachel’s mother said.
"And the easiest way to handle her acting up was to medicate her," said Rachel’s father.

I read the news today oh boy. And now I’m done…

I read the news today.. oh boy

The headlines and links to things that you  may want to see, may not want to see.. and may be disgusted by seeing. Indeed, the earth is a mess. Here are some examples.


The silver lining is that you’re alive. And you can change it. Or at least try. Even the highest mountains can move if the earth quakes enough…


Just the facts:


Wrong.


Care.


We have some very big questions to answer as we head down the path of surveillance. And love him or hate him, Matt Drudge had a Twitter ramble the other day that is worth quoting. He made some sense in the questions asked:



Question for The New Age: If one shoots down a fed/police drone while it’s invading one’s privacy, does that make one a terrorist?


Does ‘Homeland’ need warrant to fly drones over one’s backyard? Will new drones look into window? Follow one driving? Walking? NSA protected


Can media organization use drone for ‘news gathering’? Can citizen hire private ‘eye’ in personal dispute? Or only ‘Homeland’ can have fun?


Once had LAPD tell me ‘traffic’ cam could zoom up to zit on nose. Will new drones have same ability? Big Sis Reads Lips! Or will have mic?


Alas, no one would care on TWITTER, they’re all looking down. What drones?


How soon until Rahm unleashes armed drones in Chicagoland, like he did at White House in ‘terror’ war? And can one be put on ‘no spy’ list?



…I read the news today indeed. 
Hope tomorrow will be better.
We know it won’t. 


See you all on the other side of the sunrise.


The sunrise.. ready to be eclipsed and shine a ring of fire.


 

A Friday night welcome to my new followers

I am appreciative of your support. I am always curious though of the folks who follow for only a brief moment in time. I’d imagine just an accidental click… 

You don't see a story like this every day.. The newest rumor floating around Russia is that an Obama official warned that the end of the world is coming

…Does Harold Camping now work for Obama?

Today was tough. Ayden Morris was a trooper when they applied the cast. But … even troopers have bad moments.  He yelled, screamed.. his face turned a strange shade of purple.. veins popped out of his forehead.. his strength was overwhelming. I think at that moment he could have seriously lifted a car in the air.


I never had a broken bone in my life. Knock on wood that it stays that way.. 


So I asked the friendly Doc ‘is it worse to put the cast on or take it off?’


There was laughter.. Followed by a horrific look on all our faces.


Yes, indeed. Three weeks from now Ayden’s anger may build again.


Until then….. stickers of Thomas the Train and …well, as much sugar as he wants.

Unfortunately Ayden has a fracture… And a series of XRays, a cast, and memories to suppress… The little man turned into a ferocious tiger…

Here's one to make you wonder: A mystery object nearly caused a mid-air collision

The object didn’t show up on radar..


Maybe it was a bird.


A drone?


And it brings up the question in my mind: In the future, how many people are going to believe that the drones that are about to fill the sky are actually extra terrestrial craft? And in the past, how many people already thought it…
