Like one commentor said, you can make meth in 2 or 3 liter bottles so they can leave it anywhere.

Your neighborhood friendly cook could've slipped a new batch in your crawlspace last night!

No, I think it's more of the typical WalMart customer being similar to the typical tweaker in some respects. I would however find it VERY surprising to see a meth lab set up in a bathroom of a Nordstroms or a Bed Bath & Beyond.

Meet the physicist who wants to build a time machine to communicate with his dead father

imrs.php

Theoretical physicist Ronald Mallett pours dry ice into a ring laser in this arranged photograph taken in a University of Connecticut laboratory March 23. (Scott Eisen/Bloomberg)

There’s an unmistakable paradox surrounding the sudden death of Ron Mallett’s father when Mallett was an impressionable kid growing up in the Bronx: Had Boyd Mallett survived, his son never would have devoted himself with such obsessive zeal to unraveling the mystery of time travel in hopes of saving his father’s life.

Should Ron Mallett someday succeed — traveling backwards in a time machine to warn his father about this two-pack-a-day smoking habit — he would, in theory, be extinguishing the flame that has burned inside him for decades.

(Have you seen the movie “Interstellar”? Yeah, it’s kinda like that.)

“My love for him is still as strong as it was 60 years ago,” Ron Mallett told The Washington Post of his father, who died in 1955 at age 33. “When I’m on my death bed, I will be thinking of him. His death is the reason I am what I am.”

What he is is a 69-year-old theoretical physicist at the University of Connecticut who, at the tail end of a celebrated career, finds himself closer than ever to building the time machine that has mesmerized him since childhood.

Mallett’s work is rooted in the work of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity. His greatest achievement is a 15-year-old theoretical equation that, he believes, holds the key to finding his father and revolutionizing the way we think about time. To test the equation, Mallett needs to raise $250,000 for a feasibility study.

Chemotherapy kills cancer patients faster than no treatment at all


Wishful thinking simply won't deter from the fact that the cancer industry is just that: an industry. Doctors, drug companies, hospitals and other key stakeholders profit heavily each time a cancer patient submits to the conventional treatment model, which typically involves injecting chemotherapy poisons into the body, blasting it with ionizing radiation or cutting off body parts -- or some barbaric combination of all three.

It might rub some people the wrong way to state this, especially those who've had to watch a loved one die from conventional cancer treatment, but each of these supposed treatments don't actually work, in many cases. Little-known science, which the medical-industrial complex has made it a practice to ignore or cover up, reveals that, despite what the medical industry often claims, chemotherapy in particular just isn't an effective cancer treatment.

Dr. Hardin B. Jones, a former professor of medical physics and physiology at the University of California, Berkeley, had been studying the lifespans of cancer patients for more than 25 years when he came to the conclusion that, despite popular belief, chemotherapy doesn't work. He witnessed a multitude of cancer patients treated with the poison die horrific deaths, many of them meeting their fate much earlier than other patients who chose no treatment at all.

After investigating this further, Dr. Jones found that cancer patients who underwent chemotherapy actually died more quickly, in most cases, than those who followed their doctors' recommendations by getting the treatment. A few number-crunching efforts later and Dr. Jones exposed a fact that the conventional cancer industry doesn't want the world to know about its multi-billion-dollar cash cow.

"People who refused treatment lived for an average of 12 and a half years," stated Dr. Jones about his study's findings, which were published in the journal Transactions of the New York Academy of Sciences. "Those who accepted other kinds of treatment lived on an average of only 3 years."

Breast cancer patients who reject all conventional therapies live four times longer than those who follow the system
Did you catch that? Refusing conventional cancer treatments and doing nothing resulted in cancer patients living more than four times longer than their more compliant counterparts. This is something you'll never hear about from the mainstream media, which continues to peddle the myth that cancer patients somehow need poison injected into their bodies in order to survive and reach "cure" status.

Dr. Jones' study also found that the same is true concerning conventional treatments for breast cancer. Women with breast cancer who refused chemotherapy, radiation and surgery -- and remained untreated -- likewise lived four times longer than women who went under the knife or agreed to be poisoned with chemicals.

As admitted in a more recent study published in the journal Clinical Oncology back in 2004, chemotherapy is really only effective about 2 percent of the time for all cancers. And this is based on the standard five-year survival rate criteria, which isn't technically indicative of a cure -- even though health authorities often like to claim it is.

Washington (CNN)Don't mess with Texas -- even if it's just an exercise.

Amid unfounded, Internet-fueled rumors that U.S. Special Operations Forces might be trying to take over parts of the southwest, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott ordered Texas State Guard forces under his control to keep an eye on the U.S. military during a large upcoming training exercise.

The exercise is called Jade Helm 15.

"It is important that Texans know their safety, constitutional rights, private property rights and civil liberties will not be infringed," Abbott said in an April 28 letter to Major Gen. Gerald "Jake" Betty, commander of the guard.

From FoxNews: "Even actor Chuck Norris is keeping his “eyes of a ranger” on the situation." :lol:

I did not know where to post this, it is weird news from today, but it's also canna/vape related as it is going to give ALL vaporizers a bad rep.

Q13
Flakka can be eaten, snorted, injected or vaporized in an e-cigarette.

“Literally, we have people walking down the streets, walking by police officers, using drugs and you don’t even know it,”

He’s worried about the technology that kids are using now to vaporize cheap heroin or meth, and he urged parents to talk to their children about the dangers of drug use.

My advice to all is If it's not pot, don't smoke/vape it kids! Just saying!

edit, is this that dvt shit i was reading here?

Actually, if I was given a choice to be executed by a normal firing squad or an anti-aircraft gun, I'd choose the anti-aircraft gun. Quick blaze of glory kind of thing I guess....

I doubt he was given a choice in the matter.
But you have a point, it's probably way more humane than our lethal injections.

This was in my local news today, and the whole world loves news that makes Floridians say "WTF?!"

Florida Man Dances on Cop Car To Stop Vampires From Sacrificing Children.

Radecki said it all began when a "woman with fangs" came to his door, threatening that a human sacrifice was about to occur involving vampires. "Therefore, Radecki made the conscious decision to get the Sheriff of Nottingham to help him stop the slaughter of small children," the report states.

But wait, it get's better! There's video and a soundtrack!



So thank Florida and Supertramp for keeping your children safe. Or call Simon Pegg. Either way, keep on dancing. :popcorn::lmao:

Mysterious clumps of earthworms appear on Texas road

staff at Texas' Eisenhower State Park noticed the bizarre phenomenon of clumps of worms lined up along the centre of a road running through the park.

Over 30 piles of the worms were left scattered on the tarmac, leaving staff puzzled as to worms' behavior, as well as why the balls were mainly located in the middle of the road and not elsewhere.

Ya know what's really interesting about this?

I was at the VA yesterday for my physical and my doc and I got into a conversation about why the VA doesn't offer dental work as they do their other medical services especially being that it is a proven fact that poor dental health can have a very negative affect on your heart health and to me, it seems penny wise and dollar foolish to not offer dental services.

Her very candid reply totally threw me. I mean I knew what she was telling me was true but I was just amazed to be hearing it from a VA doc.

She said that dental work is just another added expense and while it would be saving money in the long run in future heart disease issues, the drug companies have powerful lobbyists in government to keep churning out drugs for those heart disease issues and money takes precedence.

She recently made a visit to China and said that they have PET scan technology that can detect non-visual cancer cell development long before the cancer becomes an issue and that they can detect this in a full body scan. I asked why this isn't employed here in the States for just about everyone in that it would cut cancer deaths by a HUGE margin. Her answer.............."Future profits for the drug companies. They only make money when you're sick."

I'm lucky in that I found myself a VERY honest doctor.
