Watering hole

Portland Oregon construction crews unearthed bones of an  mammoth in the University of Oregon football field. Reset Stadium in Corvallis yielded a femur from an ancient elephant, a bison and a camel dating back to 10,000 years ago. An archeologist said that the 10 foot pitt where the bones were found may have been a watering hole where a lot of sick animals went to die. 

Worn welcome

German police found a hand grenade in a building housing some 20 migrants, but fortunately it did not detonate. A rash of violence against asylum seekers had met Chancellor Merkel's acceptance of 800,000 refugees from Syria that has exploded across Germany since the attack on hundreds of women in Cologne on New Years day by a crowd of migrants.

Last man standing wrestling match

The ladders, chairs and tables Chief "You are fired" Trump versus Ted "McConnell is a liar" Cruz exploded in intensity and viciousness as allegations flew that Cruz had gotten sweetheart deals from his investment banker wife fat cats Wall Street hoodlum friends at exceptionally favorable terms and then failed to disclose them on his financial forms; i.e. Cruz is an undercover agent of Goldman Sachs. It did not take long for feathers to start flying.   "Here is a guy with all these senators, not one endorsement of Cruz because he is a nasty guy, nobody likes him. You can't run a country like that, will be a total mess, it will be worst gridlock than you have now. I think is more important in this whole fact that he is a Canadian citizen, he was until 15 months ago. There are many lawyers coming out, top constitutional lawyers, saying that Ted Cruz can't run for president because he was born in Canada. I think it has huge effect." Cruz replied that T...

Lone wolf

A Milwaukee man was arrested for planning to kill dozens in a Masonic Temple using two submachine guns equipped with silencers. Samy Mohammed Hamzeh told FBI informers that if this act is executed it will be known to the world over and will ignite broader clashes. He was originally planning an attack in Israel, but changed his mind to an attack in the US. Hamzeh also believed that the Temple massacre will make mujaheddin all over the world proud of him.

Iran testing site

PETA museum and shelter

Remember the "Silence of the lambs" house in Perryopolis, Pennsylvania that had trouble finding a buyer? PETA had proposed that it should be turned into a animal shelter and a museum, but the suggestion was taken with deep reservations since visitors may from time to time be startled by angry animals howling and crying, seeing ghostly evil spirits wandering around looking for trouble.

Trump slams Fox

"I have zero respect for Megyn Kelly, she is overrated, not good in what she does, a moderator. I am being taken advantage by Fox News, I don't like it, and now when I am representing the whole country I will not allow the whole country to be taken advantage of, "Trump told O'Reilly. The CFR won't stop their attacks would they?

Ruble roulette

CNBC reported from Davos, Switzerland that "The central bank of Russia is running out of money, they have $200 billion (in reserve) and they're burning through all sorts of money right now because of the oil prices and sanctions. They just don't have the money to support the ruble and so Russians are just suffering," according to a famous economist. The ruble continued its slide against the dollar and it hit 85 rubles per dollar.

No Trump time, Fox $time?

"The debate tonight will be a real disaster," Trump tweeted. "Low ratings for the advertisers, rates dropping like rocks and I hate to see that," he continued. Some analysts are not sure  that people will pull out so fast since Fox charged 10 times the usual rate, like $300,000 for 30 second commercial, a real money maker. Will the GOP base boycott a debate by few single digits percenters whom most people hate? Stand by.

Zika virus

The mosquito borne Zika virus that has lead to thousands of deformed baby brains in Brazil will spread to the Americas in Canada and Chile, WHO said in Geneva Switzerland. The viral infection has been linked to a brain anomaly called microcephaly that leads to baby's being born with smaller than normal brains. Brazil Ministry of Health reported 3348 cases of Zika virus infections in the country.

Bunker lonely

A Swedish doctor was arrested in Stockholm for abducting and keeping a woman in an home made shelter inside a storage shed. Before abducting her she was given sedative laced strawberries and juice and kept for weeks. There are indications that other women may have faced similar faith, and the doctor's' attorney said that his client was sad and lonely and needed company. A psychiatric examination by the police determined that he did not have any symptoms of the illness.

To the bitter end

The Xinhua news agency reported that the Chairman of Changjiang Securities Yang Zezhu, China 17th largest brokerage by assets has committed suicide by jumping from the 12th floor of a residential tower in the city of Wuhan. He was under investigation for corruption, part of nationwide effort by President Xi to clean up the financial markets from insider trading, illegal practices and bribery that had de-stabilized trading and forced trading halts.

Man and his dog

Geysersville California fire fighters were able to pull out a North Carolina man who got stuck in 12 foot deep shaft trying to save his dog that fell in it. He descended down in a ladder but somehow got wedged on the side and had to be rescued by the emergency personnel.

Trump GOP debate boycott statement

The full text of Mr. Trump statement regarding the next GOP debate: As someone who wrote one of the best-selling business books of all time, The Art of the Deal, who has built an incredible company, including some of the most valuable and iconic assets in the world, and as someone who has a personal net worth of many billions of dollars, Mr. Trump knows a bad deal when he sees one. FOX News is making tens of millions of dollars on debates, and setting ratings records (the highest in history), where as in previous years they were low-rated afterthoughts. Unlike the very stupid, highly incompetent people running our country into the ground, Mr. Trump knows when to walk away. Roger Ailes and FOX News think they can toy with him, but Mr. Trump doesn't play games. There have already been six debates, and according to all online debate polls including Drudge, Slate, Time Magazine, and many others, Mr. Trump has won all of them, in particular the last one. Whereas he has always been a job...

The peak of ugliness

When Goldman Sachs, the company that caused the biggest crash since 1929 pays Hillary Clinyon $200,000 per hour to talk to their executives and investors, what did she said? What did she say to the executives of other Wall Street banks that paid her 2.5 million in speaking fees during the last two years? A reporter asked her that question during a talk in Manchester New Hampshire, but she smiled, turned around and did not answer the question. The average salary of an American family of four is around $52,418 per year. Let's think how outrageous this behavior is and do we want another 8 years of robbery on what is left from the middle class.

Iran ask for prayers

Arriving in a motorcade of some 26 limousines to the Vatican the Iranian President Hassan Rouhani met with  Pope Francis in the  first visit in two decades. He said that having a chat with Francis was a "real pleasure " and asked the Pope to pray for him. The Pope gave the Iranian a medal depicting Saint Martin helping a beggar, and Rouhani presented him with a hand made rug crafted in Iranian holy city of Qhom. Before departing the Vatican he also said that Iran is the most stable state in the region and asked Francis to pray for peace.

China warning to Soros: don't mess with us

The onshore yuan is the currency controlled by the Chinese Government, and the offshore yuan is a free float of Chinese currency, hence the spread between the two is a source of great amount of volatility that affects commerce flows and currencies. A well connected source to People's Bank of China issued a stern warning to the speculators who short the yuan: Invest in the future of China or suffer steep losses shorting the yuan. The central bank recently went in the offshore yuan market and bought billions worth of yuan, a move that shot the Hong Kong interest bank rate from 4% to 68%, crushing the yuan shorts. It is not clear if US treasury or the Fed are participating on the short side of the yuan, but judging by today's DJI market drop someone screamed from the bottom of their lungs in horror.

Watch the salad

One person is dead and 11 more have been hospitalized after falling ill with deadly listeria infections that experts warn have been linked to several brands of bagged salad. The multi-state outbreak of the dangerous bacteria has been linked to a Dole processing facility in Springfield, Ohio, according to the CDC.  Anyone who's purchased bagged salads under the brand names of  Dole, Fresh Selections, Simple Truth, Marketside, The Little Salad Bar, or President's Choice Organics are advised to check the manufacturing code found on the package.

Light of dreams

Can't sleep at night? Did you ever dreamed to be Neal Armstrong waving in the heavens hundreds of thousands of miles from our celestial home? Try the  new Genesis LED lamp that emits  different tones at different times of the day with light effects of natural sunshine or twilight. NASA used it to awaken the astronauts on the ISS by making them experience 16 sunrises and sunsets every 24 hours.

Fat boys syndrome

Norway's 980 billion sovereign wealth fund hardly budged during the flash crash that took away 7 trillion dollars of worlds wealth. Many Governments have dipped in their reserves to keep the ship straight during the blinding deflation of the last year, with estimated total in the $110 billion range. Norway will take money out of the fund for first time since 1996 due to the fact that interest and dividend income more than offset current needs. Are the Norwegians simply smart, or very lucky? The only way to answer this question is to wait until the DJI average breaks below the 3rd quartile of the market range and drops down to 12500, leading to melting stock prices with Yellen unable to stop the crash by simply printing more money.

A love story

The billionaire Koch brothers, the staunch conservatives that spent millions of dollars supporting the infamous RomRyns Establishment GOP candidates like Jeb "My family are all Mexicans" Bush and others like Kasich and Rubio, and have done their best to topple the campaign of Chief "I am a winner" Trump, have actually profited a lot from the "Internal Financing scheme" that has been in place since President Barack Obama took office. According to Forbes magazine  each of the brothers had a net worth of $19 billion in 2008, that exploded to a spectacular $41 billion each recently .

Saint Trump the messenger

"If I am President the Christianity will have power in the US," Trump said during a visit to Dordt College of liberal arts in Sioux Center in Iowa. "I would have had less difficulty banning Christians from the US than Muslims," he continued. "And that is sad because we are Christians, I am a Protestant, a Presbyterian, a true believer," he said. "Christianity is under siege, churches are afraid of their tax status, stores don't  have signs of "Merry Chtistmas" anymore, Christians don't use their power," Trump continued with his sermon. "If I am President we'll say "Merry Chtistmas" again and Christians will have power again if I am there." He has a point and a big point at that, doesn't he? The moral of his sermon is that the infidels have taken over our country.

The curse of the batteries

Over the last 8 years Obama has touted the incredible efficiency of the electric car, using companies as Tesla to chart this nation trek into the havens of crystal clean air and no global warming. But recent data by the EPA throws a bucket of cold water on the invincibility of electric cars to the ambient environment by the disclosure that at temperature drop below 20F, the conventional cars mileage dips by 12%, but the hybrids mileage drops by 34%. Even worst at steady 20F the all electric vehicle mileage drops by 57%, meaning that the average miles traveled at 75F of 105 miles drops down to only 43 miles, a cathstophic loss. As the joke goes, don't mess with mother physics. This is another Solyndra folly isn't it?

Field Marshal Napoleon McDonalds versus General Burger King

In an endless trek to regain its past glory and crush the barbarian invaders next door, McDonald's kicked off a new effort in January with the "McPick 2," a limited-time deal that lets  customers select two of the following items for $2: a McDouble, a McChicken, small fries, and mozzarella sticks.

The NKVD legacy?

The former KGB officer Alexander Litvinenko died in a London hospital from polonium 210 poisoning, and now  a British judge has concluded that two Russian men, possibly undercover operatives of the KGB or the feared Russian military intelligence GRU killed him under the personal orders of Putin. The allegations infuriated the powers to be in Moscow and sharp rebuttal was delivered to the British Government. Still one does not have to dig very deep to unearth a infamous history of brutality in a string of murders using poisons cooked in the secret labs of the KGB and its predecessor the NKVD  that took the lives of hundreds if not thousand of  people including dedicated Communists who raised their hand against the iron will of the Party . That a culture of terror is still allowed to exists under the magnificent edifice of Russian cultural accomplishments and tradition is a stain to the honor of the Russian nation.

UFO over the Balkans

Rembrandts in the trash

A distinguished artist has proven again that one's man trash may be other man's treasure. The French artist Bernard Pras learned in his childhood how to transform a recycled materials in to work of art, an obsession that led him to reimagine later in life classics such as "The Wave" and "Starry Night", and a contemporary portrait of Jack Nicholson. Pras has an artistic bent to show things not the way they seem but under the lens of seeing them in another angle.
