WHO: Ebola death toll rises to more than 4,000

Posted on October 11, 2014 by DRenegade


Liberian lawmakers on Friday rejected a proposal to grant President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf the power to further restrict movement and public gatherings and to confiscate property in the fight against Ebola. One legislator said such a law would have turned Liberia into a police state.

The proposal’s defeat came as the World Health Organization once again raised the death toll attributed to the Ebola outbreak. The Geneva-based U.N. agency said that 4,033 confirmed, probable or suspected Ebola deaths have now been recorded.

All but nine of them were in the three worst-affected countries, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea. Eight of the rest were in Nigeria, with one patient dying in the United States.

On Friday, David Nabarro, the U.N. special envoy for Ebola, said the number of Ebola cases is probably doubling every three-to-four weeks and the response needs to be 20 times greater than it was at the beginning of October.

Judge strikes down NC gay marriage ban

Posted on October 11, 2014 by DRenegade

In the never ending onslaught of the government taking away the power of the people (and the pulpit), homosexual marriages are now allowed in North Carolina. But keep on voting: normalcy bias is a great thing. Until it isn’t.

Chris Creech and Chad Biggs are the first gay couple to marry in Wake County after a federal judge on Oct. 10, 2014, overturned North Carolina’s ban on same-sex marriage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A federal judge in North Carolina struck down the state’s gay marriage ban Friday, opening the way for the first same-sex weddings in the state to begin immediately.

U.S. District Court Judge Max O. Cogburn, Jr., in Asheville issued a ruling shortly after 5 p.m. declaring the ban approved by state voters in 2012 unconstitutional.

Cogburn’s ruling follows Monday’s announcement by the U.S. Supreme Court that it would not hear any appeal of a July ruling by the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond striking down Virginia’s ban. That court has jurisdiction over North Carolina.

“North Carolina’s laws prohibiting same-sex marriage are unconstitutional as a matter of law,” wrote Cogburn, who was appointed to the federal bench by President Barack Obama. “The issue before this court is neither a political issue nor a moral issue. It is a legal issue.”

Though Cogburn’s federal judicial district only covers the western third of the state, North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper said through a spokeswoman that the federal ruling applies statewide. Cooper, a Democrat, had previously decided not to continue defending the ban after concluding that all possible legal defenses had been exhausted. He declined to be interviewed.

Russia Deploying Tactical Nuclear Arms in Crimea

Russia is moving tactical nuclear weapons systems into recently-annexed Crimea while the Obama administration is backing informal talks aimed at cutting U.S. tactical nuclear deployments in Europe.

Three senior House Republican leaders wrote to President Obama two weeks ago warning that Moscow will deploy nuclear missiles and bombers armed with long-range air launched cruise missiles into occupied Ukrainian territory.

“Locating nuclear weapons on the sovereign territory of another state without its permission is a devious and cynical action,” states the letter signed by House Armed Services Committee Chairman Howard P. “Buck” McKeon (R., Calif.) and two subcommittee chairmen.

“It further positions Russian nuclear weapons closer to the heart of NATO, and it allows Russia to gain a military benefit from its seizure of Crimea, allowing Russia to profit from its action.”

Public Health Emergency Declared In Connecticut Over Ebola: Civil Rights Suspended Indefinitely

More…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Do you think Connecticut will be the only state to issue this type of declaration? And since the government is so effective at recognizing Ebola, anyone with a fever or flu like symptoms will be impacted by this “public health emergency”. What is so insidious about this is that the consequences for not containing Ebola will be the rationalization of their actions.

Hagan Passed North Carolina Law that Aided Family’s Solar Company

Posted on October 10, 2014 by DRenegade

Kay Hagan

Kay Hagan (D., N.C.) fought for the passage of legislation in both the state General Assembly and the United States Congress that has financially benefitted her relatives.

As a member of North Carolina’s General Assembly in 2007, Hagan helped pass legislation that required all investor-owned utilities in the state to utilize renewable energy resources for 12.5 percent of their energy needs.

Hagan used her work to pass the law as proof of commitment to renewable energy such as solar panels

“As a state senator, I worked with stakeholders across the state to help make North Carolina the first and only state in the Southeast to require utilities to utilize renewable energy,” said Hagan.

Founded as a result of the law was a company called Green State Power, a solar panel developer based in Greensboro, N.C., which was Hagan’s district.

The CEO of Green State Power is Tilden Hagan, the senator’s son. The other listed managers of the company are the senator’s husband Charles Hagan and son-in-law William Stewart, according to the most recent filing with the North Carolina Department of the Secretary of State. Its address on the filing is the law office headed by Hagan’s husband.

Turkey’s interior minister has presented the grave cost of recent violence in Turkey, noting that over 30 people have been killed in armed clashes between protesters demonstrating in solidarity with the Syrian border town of Kobane and groups opposing them since Oct. 7.

More than 1,000 people were being held in custody as of Oct. 10, Efkan Ala added.

“Since Tuesday [Oct. 7], 35 provinces have been affected by these incidents. In these incidents, 31 people have unfortunately lost their lives. Most of these people lost their lives during violent actions between opposing groups,” Ala told reporters at a press conference on Oct. 10.

Hours after his announcement, Turkish news agencies reported late Oct. 10 more deaths as injured protesters in hospitals could not be saved, putting the death toll at 37, including two police officers.

What Happens When Government Collapses?

Posted on October 10, 2014 by DRenegade

mad-max
by Martin Armstrong

Come December, I will be able to explain a bit more clearly. It will become more obvious by then why I have held back a touch more in this area. I am finishing theSOLUTION and intend to put this out in a book format so many people can afford it. I too have family and this is why I even do what I do, Yes, I could just retire and ignore the world. But what would my family face?

I understand that we are at a crossroads. The tree has been cut. Which way will it fall – authoritarian or democracy? We can make a difference. Step one is understanding what is the problem. At least then we can address a solution with some reasonable game plan.

We have a great convergence coming. It is nothing to be afraid of and it is nothing we can ignore. Yes a Mad Max event is possible. The average person depends upon government tremendously – even those not on welfare. There are pensions and Social Security that people really believe they are “entitled” to and thus these benefits will exist. What happens when they realize they do not?

Socialism has even changed the historic bounds of family. You had 4 to 6 kids for that was your retirement. The kids knew they had the responsibility of taking care of their parents. Today – that’s government’s job. Everything has been changed to depend upon government that never tells the truth and they will defend to the very last drop of your blood.

Pick Your Poison (Disease)

Posted on October 10, 2014 by DRenegade


Although the media is focused on Ebola, there are multiple diseases that must not be overlooked. The lack of news coverage is the reason for these diseases: the pResident’s open border policy is bringing enterovirus D8, TB, Dengue Fever and swine flu to the US. And into our children’s schools. But not in the Obama’s children’s private school.

China’s Own “Ebola” Claims Another 1826 Cases

While Ebola is getting all the headlines, China is dealing with “the worst outbreak in decades” of Dengue Fever. As ITAR-TASS reports, the outbreak of the mosquito-borne disease in China has killed six people and infected more than 27,200 according to Chinese health officials. Just today, the epidemic has infected 1,826 more people in the Guangdong Province alone. But it’s not just China, last month Malaysia reported that dengue fever deaths had more than tripled in 2014, while Japan recently saw its first outbreak in 70 years with many contracting the illness at Tokyo’s popular Yoyogi Park.

As ITAR-TASS reports,

An outbreak of mosquito-borne dengue fever in China has killed six people and infected more than 27,200, a Chinese health authority spokeswoman said on Thursday.

Song Shuli, spokeswoman of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, said that this year witnessed an apparent increase of dengue cases with most of them found in China’s southern regions, including Guangdong, Fujian, Yunnan and Guangxi.

Unusually high temperatures and humid weather have contributed to a mosquito population in South China five times as high as normal, fuelling the outbreak, health officials said.

Spread by mosquitoes, the disease thrives in tropical mega cities thanks to rapid urbanization and population movement. Climate change is also a factor, giving rise to longer periods that infected mosquitos can survive.

Libs Claim Using the Term “OBOLA” Is Racist

From the left:

Liberal journalists are now claiming that Americans who use the term #Obola are racist and xenophobic, continuing the trend whereby any criticism of President Obama is hastily characterized as a racial slur.

In an article for the Verge entitled Ebola panic is getting pretty racist, feminist journalist Arielle Duhaime-Ross blames Dinesh D’Souza and Michael Savage for popularizing the hashtag #Obola as a “racist xenophobic….banner to rally around,” despite the fact that the meme patently represents a witty encapsulation of what many see as the federal government’s botched response to the Ebola outbreak and the failure to block flights from West Africa in the name of political correctness.

Duhaime-Ross argues that “white privilege….is floating to the surface” in the aftermath of the Ebola outbreak, a theme mimicked by Rev. Jesse Jackson who this week blamed “white privilege” for Ebola victim Thomas Duncan not getting the treatment he needed.

Ebola Pandemic Update: Probable Cases In Brazil And Paris, 7 More Isolated In Spain, WHO Warning

Posted on October 10, 2014 by DRenegade

Despite claims of containment, Reuters reports seven more people turned themselves in late on Thursday to an Ebola isolation unit in Madrid; but following a visit by PM Rajoy, Spanish citizens can relax as the government is setting up a special Ebola committee. Following yesterday’s scare in Paris, The Independent reports authorities are investigating a ‘probable’ case of a French national who may have contracted the disease in Africa. The World Health organization has warned that East Asia is at risk of becoming a “hot spot” for diseases – but is well prepared after SARS and avian flu but it is the appearance of a confirmed case in Brazil that is most concerning. A 47-year-old man, originally from Guinea, is LatAm’s first case and suggests SOUTHCOM’s “nightmare scenario” is closer than many would care to believe. Finally, the CDC has issued special guidance to 911 operators on dealing with suspected Ebola cases across America.

Spain continues to escalate (as Reuters reports)

Seven people turned themselves in late on Thursday to an Ebola isolation unit in Madrid where Teresa Romero, the nurse who became the first person to contract Ebola outside Africa, lay gravely ill.
