No one knows why a child opened fire at Sparks Middle School in Nevada, killing a teacher and wounding two other students before taking his own life.

Merkel's move: Can you hear her now?

Maybe the NSA should re-create the HealthCare.gov site.. but they are busy with their own stuff.. They record 124 billion calls A MONTH .. they may know everything from the drugs you’re taking, to what you’re having for dinner, to who you’re currently attempting to mate with.. And they know if the partner really wants you to mate with them. It’s gotten to the point where now nations are actually turning to the United Nations to implement some internet privacy rules.. The angriest may be Germany’s Angela Merkel, who apparently has been spied on by the NSA too.. Old friend (or foe to some) Edward Snowden says there is no telephone call in America that does not leave some sort of record with the NSA.. ..

But life online may get a little more transparent, thanks to Mozilla. They have a new product called LIGHTBEAM, and it is set to expose those companies who are looking over your shoulder while you surf the world online..

Remember the woman the other day who was fainting behind President Obama while he spoke? Why did he turn around BEFORE the woman fainted? Wow. . this video is quite a bombshell of conspiratorial thought. I love it!

Healthcare.Flub

The government is used to regulating products and not selling them. Perhaps that’s too easy of a way out for the Obama Administration? I just think the entire disaster that is now happening with Obamacare is unfortunate—there really is no way to even debate if Obamacare in itself is good, because the problems with the health care rollout has completely overshadowed the argument as to whether health care reform was right or wrong. Now we are dealing and reeling with insurance cuts for people who have plans they wanted to keep, and a failure of a website that, for some reason, works worse than even a Geocities page in the late 1990s..

The news rundown concerning this, should you wish to cringe:

Cancellation notices are soaring above Obamacare enrollments..

People can’t log on!

Dummy files and fake names were left in published code!

Democrats in uneasy spot over Health.gov

Trading blame in front of Congress..

What we did not learn from hearings..

Contractors testify: Not enough testing..

Consumers grow very frustrated with Healthcare.gov

SO how much did Healthcare.gov cost?

Just a plain weird GIF presented by NBC’s TODAY SHOW blog this morning.

And I can’t stop watching it..

The exciting world (to me) of solar flares

The sun has come alive! M class and X class flares..the latest in a series of strong bursts that came off of the sun was an X1.7 flare. It will be set now to provide a glancing blow to the planet Earth.. The X class flare came from sunspot 1882.. you can find the most and best information concerning this and other previous flares from the suddenly active sun on SOALRHAM.NET, plus you can also hear why the sun is suddenly so active and what that can mean courtesy a video provided by Art Bell’s website..

But at this point two CMEs are heading to earth..

Also this link of worth reading: A ‘Canyon of Fire’ solar filament eruption was caught on close up video..

THE DEVIL'S IN Danvers: Colleen Ritzer asked murder suspect to stay after school

BOSTON.COM is reporting this:

The high school math teacher who was allegedly slain by a 14-year-old student asked the student to stay after school on the day she was killed because she wanted to help him with an upcoming test, a student in the class said today.

Student Rania Rhaedaoui said she was in Colleen Ritzer’s algebra class on the last period of the day on Tuesday, along with the suspect, Philip Chism.

“She saw him drawing during class and she just said to him, ‘I didn’t know you could draw,’” said Rhaedaoui, a 14-year-old freshman.

“I sit really close to him, so I could hear,” she said.

Rhaedaoui said she later heard Ritzer ask Chism to stay after school.

“She just said, ‘Can you stay after with me?’ He just gave a nod.”

“There was a test coming up, and she wanted to know if he had any questions on learning equations,” Rhaedaoui said.

Cambria Cloutier, another 14-year-old freshman, who was also in the class, said she walked by Ritzer’s classroom at about 3:15 p.m., more than an hour after the class had gotten out at 1:55 p.m. “She was standing at her computer, and he was just sitting there,” Cloutier said. “It just looked normal, like any other day.”

An obvious developing story.. There is more much to read at BOSTON.COM
