If there had been time, Marie Exley would have liked to start a family. Instead, the 32-year-old Army veteran has less than six months left, which she'll spend spreading a stark warning: Judgment Day is almost here.Exley is part of a movement of Christians loosely organized by radio broadcasts and websites, independent of churches and convinced by their reading of the Bible that the end of the world will begin May 21, 2011.

U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords remains in critical condition after a shooting rampage at a Tucson shopping center that has shaken the nation and left at least five people dead and more than a dozen wounded.Giffords, an Arizona Democrat, was shot in the head at point blank range by a man who opened fire during a meet-and-greet with constituents. Among the dead are an aide to the congresswoman, a 9-year-old girl and U.S. District Judge John Roll.
[...]
The shooter has been identified as Jared Loughner, 22, by law enforcement officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the name publicly.
[...]
Federal law enforcement officials were poring over captured versions of a MySpace page that belonged to Loughner and over YouTube video published to the Internet weeks ago under an account "Classitup10" and linked to him.
”Classitup.” Very classy act.
Back in June 2010, Rep. Gabrielle Giffords's (D-AZ) Republican opponent Jesse Kelly had an event at which voters could shoot an assault rifle with the candidate, promoted as thus:Get on Target for Victory in NovemberTPM

Shoot a fully automatic M16 with Jesse Kelly.
From last year Rep. Giffords (D-AZ) responds to earlier vandalism incident at her office and being placed on Sarah Palin's 'crosshairs' list."We're on Sarah Palin's targeted list. But the thing is the way that she has it depicted has the crosshairs of a gun site over our district. People do that they've got to realize there's consequences to that action."

In a letter to be distributed Friday night, Reps. Pete Sessions and Mike Fitzpatrick apologize to all 433 of their House colleagues for voting after missing out on taking their official oath of office during Wednesday’s opening ceremonies of the 112th Congress.[...]
“[W]e are deeply committed to fulfilling our role in our constitutional democracy by maintaining the integrity of the People’s House. Our absence on the House floor during the oath of office ceremony for the 112th Congress — while not intentional — fell short of this standard by creating uncertainty regarding our standing in this body,” Sessions, a Texas Republican, and Fitzpatrick, a Pennsylvania Republican, write in a copy of the letter provided to POLITICO.
What do they mean “not intentional?”
Sessions and Fitzpatrick were attending a reception for the Pennsylvanian in the Capitol Visitor Center when the oath was administered. House officials became aware of the problem Thursday after the online publication of a photograph of the two members-elect raising their right hands while watching the ceremony on television Wednesday.

Sorry. I just haven't felt much like being serious about the world lately.
The second unexplained mass bird death within a week has been discovered in the southern United States, this time in the state of Louisiana, officials said Tuesday.The latest incident affected some 500 birds which were discovered dead in Pointe Coupee Parish, said Olivia Watkins of the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries.
I have an idea (look out)...these birds and the red wing blackbirds that died in Arkansas...could they have been feeding on aquatic insects on the Louisiana coast that were contaminated with oil and dispersants? Were the Arkansas birds migratory? Did they perhaps stop on the coast and fill up for the next leg of the flight, and somewhere over Arkansas, the digestion process reached the poisoning point?
Hey, it may be wrong, but it's not illogical.
Of course, neither is government experiments on species-targeting warfare.
The Maryland Department of the Environment said that tens of thousands of small fish have died in the Chesapeake Bay due to the stress of the cold water.[...]
She said the fish usually swim to warmer waters before the severe cold weather that the area experienced in December. There is no word on why the fish didn't do that.
Maybe somebody should ask that question.
A survey conducted by the Federation of Fishermen's Colony of Paraná, Paranaguá on the coast of the state [of Brazil], indicates that at least 100 tons of fish (sardine, croaker and catfish) have turned up dead since last Thursday off the coast of Parana.
It’s all just coincidence, I’m sure…the 5,000 redwing blackbirds, the thousands of fish in Arkansas, the “tens of thousands” of fish in Maryland, and the tons of fish in Brazil – all within a few days. The animals are leaving the planet.
As officials worked to figure out the cause of death of some 5,000 blackbirds that fell from the Arkansas sky this weekend, some 100 miles away another disaster was unfolding: The discovery of 100,000 dead drum fish in the Arkansas River.
Or maybe there was an alien spaceship landing. It is Arkansas we’re talking about, you know.
BP destroyed Gulf life. Arkansas is the next inland. Any connection? Or just a coincidence?
I'd be drinking bottled water and staying indoors if I were you Arkansans, although it may be too late for that.
....and hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
And, PS
Someone suggested that there were loud booming noises when the blackbirds died which scared them to death. Yeah, 5,000 of them.
It was just blackbirds that died, and it was just one species of fish. This reminds me of tests that were being conducted when I was in grad school using microwaves to target specific species of crop pests. Of course, you know the military has run experiments to target just one race of people. Don't you?
In videos shot in 2006 and 2007 and obtained on Friday by the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot, Capt. Owen Honors is seen ringleading numerous skits depicting scenes such as female sailors pretending to shower together and begging for more time; sailors dressed in drag; sailors using anti-gay slurs; and simulated masturbation and rectal exams.[...]
According to unnamed Naval officers who spoke with the Virginian-Pilot, the videos were a regular fixture aboard the USS Enterprise, being broadcast weekly by closed-circuit TV to its approximately 6,000 crew.
[...]
”This evening, all of you bleeding hearts -- and you, fag schoolboy -- why don't you just go ahead and hug yourself for the next 20 minutes or so, because there's a really good chance you're gonna be offended," Capt. Honors says at the start of one of the videos.
(The "schoolboy" Capt. Honors referred to was his own "alter ego," appearing in the video through a camera trick.)
[...]
The Navy at first defended the videos as an attempt at using humor to instruct sailors on various issues.
[...]
"The videos created onboard USS Enterprise in 2006-2007 were not created with the intent to offend anyone," a statement to the Virginian-Pilot said. "The videos were intended to be humorous skits focusing the crew's attention on specific issues such as port visits, traffic safety, water conservation, ship cleanliness, etc."
[...]
Honors was executive officer, or second-in-command, of the aircraft carrier when the videos were made. He has since been promoted to commander of the ship.
No wonder we are having such trouble. Sexually obsessed commanders leading sexually obsessed juveniles. Are there no adults in the military? Lord of the Flies.

Pakistan's prime minister, scrambling to keep his party's grip on power, sought support from opposition leaders Monday following the defection of a key coalition partner that threatens to bring down the government.
Fantastic. Going just as we imagined. Now, come July, we can slink out of Afghanistan like we did Iraq (without really leaving, of course), but keep our munitions manufacturers in the black by concentrating our firepower in Pakistan.

US President Barack Obama is unlikely to face a serious challenge in the 2012 White House race from within his party, the Democratic Party leader said Sunday.

Wildlife officials are trying to determine what caused more than 1,000 blackbirds to die and fall from the sky over an Arkansas town.
Only blackbirds - no other kind. Perhaps it was something that happened to one flock. But just to be safe, I'd hurry and pack the family out of there if I were you.
