Military to jam GPS signals across East Coast through Jan. 24th; FBI asserting eminent domain to seize night vision devices from distributors
In case you didn't fully realize that something big is about to take place in America, file these two facts in your brain:
Fact #1: The U.S. military, Carrier Strike Group Four (CSG4), is jamming GPS signals from Jan 16th - 24th, which may overlap the planned deep state false flag event in Richmond, Virginia. Richmond is just at the margins of the range of the GPS jamming exercise map released by the military (see below). The epicenter of the so-called "exercise" is off the coast of Georgia. The official FAA announcement claims no jamming will take place on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday next week, but we don't trust the FAA, so your mileage may vary. Remember, too, that 90% of the American population below the age of 30 has never read a paper map and can't use a compass.
The GPS jamming exercise continues through Jan. 24th and effects South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Eastern Tennessee, Alabama and all of Florida. The AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association) has posted details of the warning here.
The FAA has also issued a flight advisory warning aircraft pilots that GPS will fail for "several hours each day" during this military jamming exercise. See:
www.FAAsafety.gov/files/notices/2020/Jan/CSG4_20-01_GPS_Flight_Advisory.pdf
Map of the Carrier Strike Group Four GPS testing
Here are the areas that will be impacted:
Note that this is the U.S. military testing GPS jamming capabilities in anticipation of an event that would require such jamming (obviously). Consider the convergence of events now shaping up:
- The impeachment trial of President Trump by the U.S. Senate, presided over by the treasonous sellout SCOTUS Justice Roberts, who already sold out America to Obama under the wildly unconstitutional "Obamacare" decision years ago.
- The Jan. 20th "Lobby Day" event in Richmond, Virginia, where deep state operatives are absolutely trying to put together a false flag event to cause violence and blame gun owners.
- The Mysterious drone flights over Colorado, Kansas and Nebraska, recently followed up by an emergency meeting with the Kansas legislature on a military base, where they were briefed about something "horrific" and "life altering."
- The FBI's sudden attempts to confiscate high-end night vision tubes from distributors, indicating an emergency need for night vision capabilities in an agency led by a treasonous traitor (Chris Wray) and that has a long history of planning and carrying out terrorism plots across America, according to the New York Times and the Kansas City Star.
FBI invokes "eminent domain" to seize high-end night vision tubes
Fact #2: The FBI is now claiming "eminent domain" to essentially seize high-end night vision tubes (that power night vision goggles) from distributors in the United States. This indicates the FBI has an emergency effort under way to acquire large numbers of night vision devices in anticipation of some urgent event which will take place at night (possibly another FBI false flag operation like Oklahoma City or the 1993 attempted World Trade Center bombing which was entirely masterminded by the FBI).
As Dave Hodges is reporting from The Commonsense Show, Bob Griswold from ReadyMadeResources.com relates a shocking event where he had already locked in the purchase of 70 night vision tubes from his distributor, and had those tubes invoiced and committed. Within hours, the FBI claimed eminent domain over the tubes, effectively "seizing" them from Ready Made Resources before they could even be shipped.
We reviewed a letter written to RMR by their distributor, confirming that the government preempted the order to RMR and claimed they had ownership over the gear because they were the government.
An hour ago, I spoke with Griswold on the phone to confirm the situation, and he told me he thought there were, "No more than 200 high-end night vision devices remaining in the entire country." (This excludes the crappy gen 1 and gen 2 night vision devices, which nobody wants anyway.)
I'm told that inventory units are flying off the shelves and will be gone everywhere in the next 1-2 business days. Yes, there is a run on night vision in America, happening right now.
Here's the relevant question: What is the FBI planning that would require hundreds of night vision devices?
Answer: Probably another bombing, mass shooting, mass casualty event or some other terrorism flashpoint that the FBI is famous for causing. Just ask the church members of Waco, Texas... or not, since they're all dead, thanks to the FBI and ATF.
Earlier this week, Alex Jones declared on his broadcast that the deep state was going to "attempt to assassinate Trump next week." Could this military exercise, and the FBI night vision devices, and the drones scanning the Midwest all be related?
Most likely, yes.
Listen to my urgent false flag warning podcast which covers the possibility of deliberate violence being staged for Monday, Jan. 20th, in Richmond, Virginia:
Brighteon.com/9c32473d-2716-43ea-acd4-03088f4f49d0
The deep state is igniting TOTAL WAR against America
Get prepared, America. The deep state is about to unleash total war against us all. They plan to kill the President, criminalize the Second Amendment, destroy the First Amendment, crash the economy, start race riots and basically plunge the country into nationwide chaos.
It's long past time to just arrest all these left-wing traitors and throw them in prison, as All News Pipeline correctly reports: "It's time Democrats are charged with treason and sedition and held accountable for their high crimes upon America."

Ebola-infected woman crosses America's open border and dies in a U.S. hospital... "human weapons" infected with Ebola are being sent into the USA

( Natural News ) There ’ s still no formidable wall protecting America ’ s southern border from continued invasion , which means that “ migrants ” and “ refugees ” – let ’ s call these people what they really are : illegals – continue to flood into our country like a broken fire hydrant .

A case-in-point was a 41-year-old woman from the Democratic Republic of the Congo ( DRC ) who died @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Border Patrol reportedly took the woman into custody after it was revealed that she had “ a pre-existing medical condition , ” after which she “ vomited ” before dying from “ acute kidney failure.
” Upon analysis , it was determined that the woman was infected with Ebola , a deadly illness that has the potential to snowball into a national or even global pandemic if it isn ’ t quickly identified and quarantined .
In this case , initial screening determined that this woman was sick , but for some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contracted medical personnel , and transferred to the Lincoln Juarez Bridge for additional immigration processing and overnight holding.

Border Patrol immediately contacted emergency medical services ( EMS ) , which came and transported the woman to the Laredo Medical Center for a medical evaluation , where she quickly died .
“ The subject ’ s health declined rapidly and she passed away @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reports , though the Webb County Medical Examiner ’ s Office ( WCMEO ) ruled the death as not suspicious since she had a “ pre-existing medical condition.

But somehow when it comes to illegal invaders , all bets are off as anyone is welcome by these same leftists into our country , regardless of their “ pre-existing medical conditions.

Upon analysis, it was determined that the woman was infected with Ebola, a deadly illness that has the potential to snowball into a national or even global pandemic if it isn’t quickly identified and quarantined. In this case, initial screening determined that this woman was sick, but for some reason she was “cleared by on-site contracted medical personnel, and transferred to the Lincoln Juarez Bridge for additional immigration processing and overnight holding.”
The very next day, which just so happened to be Christmas morning, the woman began to suffer “abdominal pain” that eventually caused her to throw-up. Border Patrol immediately contacted emergency medical services (EMS), which came and transported the woman to the Laredo Medical Center for a medical evaluation, where she quickly died.
“The subject’s health declined rapidly and she passed away at the hospital,” according to reports, though the Webb County Medical Examiner’s Office (WCMEO) ruled the death as not suspicious since she had a “pre-existing medical condition.” But what this office and others involved failed to reveal was that this “pre-existing medical condition” was deadly Ebola, possibly out of fear that it might create mass panic.

But somehow when it comes to illegal invaders, all bets are off as anyone is welcome by these same leftists into our country, regardless of their “pre-existing medical conditions.” Furthermore, nobody on the vaccine-loving left is calling for “refugees” and “migrants” to be forcibly vaccinated in the same way as California children are by vaccine liars like Richard Pan, who singlehandedly led the crusade to eliminate the Golden State’s religious and philosophical vaccine exemption provisions.

( Natural News ) Like the other tech giants , Google has a very bad attitude towards conservative voices and , as studies have shown , uses its massive market domination as a search engine and media company to silence anyone with whom its Left-wing managers disagree .

Privacy no more: Google, which censors conservative voices, now mining tens of millions of health records without your permission
Like the other tech giants, Google has a very bad attitude towards conservative voices and, as studies have shown, uses its massive market domination as a search engine and media company to silence anyone with whom its Left-wing managers disagree.
Now, the tech behemoth will have additional ‘leverage’ over conservatives and other Americans with whom the company disagrees politically, socially, even culturally: Complete control over medical privacy (or lack thereof).
“Google now has the ability to view or analyze tens of millions of patient health records in at least three-quarters of U.S. states, and won’t say what they’re doing with the data except that they ‘want to be helpful,’” tweeted conservative writer Rachel Bovard, including a story from The Wall Street Journal providing the details.
The story notes that about a year ago, Google’s former top executive Eric Schmidt pitched the company’s cloud storage technology to health data company Cerner Corp. The deal included about $250 million in discounts and incentives, according to people who are familiar with the deal. But:
Google had a bigger goal in pushing for the deal than dollars and cents: a way to expand its effort to collect, analyze and aggregate health data on millions of Americans. Google representatives were vague in answering questions about how Cerner’s data would be used, making the health-care company’s executives wary, the people say. Eventually, Cerner struck a storage deal with Amazon.com Inc. instead.

‘We don’t do anything with Google’
The failed effort with Cerner did not quell Google’s enthusiasm for health data. Since then, the WSJ reported, Google has managed to land contracts with some of the country’s biggest hospital systems and “most-renowned” healthcare providers.
Within the course of a couple years, Google has managed to gain the ability to view and “analyze” tens of millions of healthcare records in three-quarters of U.S. states (now you know why we have always opposed ‘electronic medical records, for just this reason, among others — hackers come to mind).
And of course, the tech giant isn’t finished — nor will it be until it can access the medical records of every single American.
So they can be ‘analyzed.’
Now, what would Google want with so much health information? There are all kinds of possibilities and none of them good, as the WSJ notes. (Related: Doctors are FLEEING medical practice and changing careers in record numbers as “health care” system implodes.)
“The prospect of tech giants’ amassing huge troves of health records has raised concerns among lawmakers, patients and doctors, who fear such intimate data could be used without individuals’ knowledge or permission, or in ways they might not anticipate,” the paper reported.
Exactly.
And what about the Fourth Amendment? Where is our right “to be secure” in our homes, “papers, and effects” against “unreasonable searches?” Or does the Fourth Amendment’s protections only apply to government? No, according to Cornell Law School; the Constitution’s privacy provisions also form the basis for privacy law.
But…no. According to the WSJ, laws passed by Congress during the dial-up age of the Internet make it legal for Google to use information it gathers from health companies “for purposes beyond diagnosing illnesses,” the company’s stated objective.
Fortunately, not all health companies are in on this.
“We are not actively doing anything today with Google,” Kaiser Permanente Vice President Elizabeth McGlynn told the paper. “We have to be very clear about who shares our values about protecting patient privacy. Not every tech company can satisfy that standard.”

The MMR vaccine is a total failure, and health officials are desperately trying to prevent you from discovering that fact
For some odd reason, the "science-based medicine" folks refuse to acknowledge that their precious vaccines aren't a one-size-fits-all miracle medicine. While even the manufacturer package inserts openly admit – because theyto – that some children won't respond to vaccines and might even suffer adverse effects from them, both the media and health "authorities" alike want us all to believe them when they say that vaccines are 100 percent safe and effective, which is why they're working tirelessly to eliminate vaccination exemptions all across the country.
Of particular concern is the MMR vaccine for measles, mumps, and rubella, a highly controversial multivalent jab that we've repeatedly warned doesn't hold up to scientific scrutiny. In fact, the MMR vaccine was fraudulently approved based on flawed and inaccurate studies, and is linked to causing a 340 percent increase in autism specifically among African-American boys.
There are many other problems with the MMR vaccine that continue to be ignored by those with the loudest voices in our society, which is why groups like Children's Health Defense (CHD) are publishing groundbreaking research that tells the ugly truth about vaccines that nobody else seems willing to tell, save for Natural News and a few other independent media sources that have braved the tide of censorship in defense of the facts.
As part of an installment series about vaccine failure, CHD recently published an extensive piece about the many problems inherent to the MMR vaccine. The following is information about this deadly jab you're unlikely to hear or read about anywhere else, which is why we're committed to doing our part in getting the message out loudly and clearly.
Fundamentally speaking, the MMR vaccine simply doesn't provide true protection against measles like the medical establishment claims. As it turns out, primary and secondary measles vaccine failures are more common than many people think, with as many as 12 percent of children who receive the first dose of measles vaccine exhibiting what's known as "primary vaccine failure."
Almost none of the official story about the "benefits" of the MMR vaccine is true
For reasons that CHD claims remain "largely unknown," measles vaccination often fails to induce the expected antibody response that's believed to create immunity – meaning the vaccine is certifiably useless. And even in individuals for whom the vaccine appears to "take," the science shows that many vaccinated individuals "have lower levels of measles-specific antibody than do those with immunity derived from exposure to wild-type" measles virus.
Secondary failure is also common, as even the best "immunity" procured by measles vaccines is temporary at best. At worst, no immunity is conferred at all, and vaccinated individuals still contract and spread vaccine-type measles infections to themselves and to others.
Another problem with measles vaccines is that they don't pass any real immunity on to the next generation. A measles-vaccinated mother, for instance, will not pass on adequate immunity to her children like an unvaccinated mother who contracted measles naturally when she was a child would. This creates a situation in which the children of measles-vaccinated mothers are more prone to developing the type of serious measles infections that the media and health authorities constantly claim unvaccinated children are contracting and spreading.
And that brings us to another point: Measles-vaccinated individuals in general are still getting measles, and perhaps at an even higher rate than the statistics show. While media and government mouthpieces would have us all believe that getting vaccinated always prevents infection, the truth of the matter is that vaccines contain viral components, sometimes in live form, that are still capable of causing a vaccinated person to become ill.

BREAKING: Coronavirus Hits 15% Fatality Rate, 83% Infection Rate for Those Exposed; Lancet Publishes Early Study That Points to Alarming Consequences for Humanity
BREAKING: The U.S. news media is currently running about one to two days behind the Chinese media in covering the bombshell revelations surrounding the coronavirus pandemic. Natural News has Chinese-speaking investigators on the ground in Taiwan, and they're scanning the Chinese media for the most important announcements.
Earlier today, the Taiwan media began reporting on a new mainland Chinese study that specifically looked at the individuals involved in this Wuhan coronavirus outbreak. We have a partial translation and link below. According to this news, which is widely circulating in the Taiwan press and is based on a study published in The Lancet, the Wuhan coronavirus fatality rate has leaped to 15%, and the infection rate among those exposed is 83%.
These numbers are virtually unheard of in the world of microbiology and infectious disease transmission. It means that 15 out of every 100 infected people will die. It also means that 83 out of 100 exposed people will become infected and able to transmit the disease to others.
So for every 100 people who are exposed, around 12 will die (15% of 83).
The only criticism of this study is that its sample size was relatively small, given that it's still very early in the outbreak of this disease. The study looked at 41 cases of individuals who were exposed.
If the infection rate stands at 83%, this pandemic will be impossible to contain
The story is from TaiwanDaily.net and says this (translated):
Hong Kong and Chinese researchers published the latest research on "New Coronavirus 2019" (referred to as "Wuhan pneumonia") in the medical journal "Lancet" on the 24th. Chinese experts pointed directly to the disease. The [fatality] rate is fifteen percent. Hong Kong experts confirmed for the first time that Wuhan pneumonia can be transmitted from person to person, and patients may not have surface symptoms. Taking a Shenzhen seven-person home with six people as an example, the analysis shows that the attack rate is as high as 83% and the incubation period is three to six days It is expected that a large number of cases will break out in China within a week, and the next two weeks will be a crucial period to prevent any place from becoming "another Wuhan".
The same article also reveals the recorded rate of symptoms among those who are infected:
Overall, 98% of the symptoms were fever, 76% coughing, 44% muscle pain or feeling tired.
With 98% showing fever, this means that one out of 50 people infected will show no fever and therefore easily bypass current screening methods that are practiced by health officials.
If one in 50 infected people is able to get through screening that's primarily looking for fever and respiratory symptoms, it means this outbreak is highly unlikely to be contained.
The article from Taiwan also describes the slow progression of symptoms, in some cases taking as long as eight days to appear:
As a result, one person had fever and diarrhea in Wuhan one day; many relatives they visited also began to have fever and cough on the fourth day; another did not go to Wuhan, but lived with four family members who were subsequently diagnosed, and the eighth day also began Found physical discomfort and confirmed the illness.
The Lancet publishes the study: More details
As we were working on this story, The Lancet study appeared, providing more details and a direct link to the research article. You can find it here:
https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)30183-5/fulltext
The findings:
By Jan 2, 2020, 41 admitted hospital patients had been identified as having laboratory-confirmed 2019-nCoV infection. Most of the infected patients were men (30 [73%] of 41); less than half had underlying diseases (13 [32%]), including diabetes (eight [20%]), hypertension (six [15%]), and cardiovascular disease (six [15%]). Median age was 49·0 years (IQR 41·0–58·0). 27 (66%) of 41 patients had been exposed to Huanan seafood market. One family cluster was found. Common symptoms at onset of illness were fever (40 [98%] of 41 patients), cough (31 [76%]), and myalgia or fatigue (18 [44%]); less common symptoms were sputum production (11 [28%] of 39), headache (three [8%] of 38), haemoptysis (two [5%] of 39), and diarrhoea (one [3%] of 38). Dyspnoea developed in 22 (55%) of 40 patients (median time from illness onset to dyspnoea 8·0 days [IQR 5·0–13·0]). 26 (63%) of 41 patients had lymphopenia. All 41 patients had pneumonia with abnormal findings on chest CT. Complications included acute respiratory distress syndrome (12 [29%]), RNAaemia (six [15%]), acute cardiac injury (five [12%]) and secondary infection (four [10%]). 13 (32%) patients were admitted to an ICU and six (15%) died. Compared with non-ICU patients, ICU patients had higher plasma levels of IL2, IL7, IL10, GSCF, IP10, MCP1, MIP1A, and TNF?.
Interpretation:
The 2019-nCoV infection caused clusters of severe respiratory illness similar to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus and was associated with ICU admission and high mortality. Major gaps in our knowledge of the origin, epidemiology, duration of human transmission, and clinical spectrum of disease need fulfilment by future studies.
Note the language saying there are "major gaps in our knowledge" about the "duration of human transmission."
Also note the more detailed list of symptoms offered by The Lancet:
Fever: 98%
Cough: 76%
Fatigue: 44%
Sputum production: 28%
Headache: 8%
Haemoptysis: 5%
Diarrhea: 3%
Also note it took eight days to develop dyspnoea, or difficulty breathing.
Also notice that 12% suffered "acute cardiac injury" which means permanent damage to the heart.
Sadly, through policies such as open borders, filthy liberal cities and biosludge "recycling" of human sewage onto food farms, humanity has created the "perfect storm" for a pandemic wipeout that cannot be stopped:

The group is made up of nearly 5,000 synthetic chemicals that have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for their ability to resist heat , oil and water , they ’ re used across a broad range of products .

FDA reports that PFAS, or “forever chemicals,” are NOT a health concern for customers, but other public health experts aren’t convinced
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s main responsibility is ensuring that the food, drugs, cosmetics and other products sold in the country are safe for human health. Unfortunately, there are lots of ways they’re failing the public, especially when it comes to a group of chemicals known as PFAS.
PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, were found in a recent FDA analysis in multiple levels of the American food supply chain. The group is made up of nearly 5,000 synthetic chemicals that have been used since the 1940s.
Valued for their ability to resist heat, oil and water, they’re used across a broad range of products. For example, they can be found in nonstick cookware, dental floss, firefighting foam, fast food packaging and stain-resistant fabrics and carpets.
These chemicals were recently found in food sources throughout the nation, including in those areas that are known to be contaminated with PFAS. They were found in milk at a New Mexico dairy farm where PFAS made their way into groundwater and leafy greens like kale, cabbage and lettuce grown at a farm downstream from a North Carolina PFAS production plant and sold at a farmer’s market. They also turned up in 14 out of 91 samples tested of dairy, grains and meat.
Cumulative lifetime exposure cause for concern
While the FDA said the presence of these chemicals in our food supply chain are not likely to be a health concern for the public at the levels detected, many experts beg to differ. One big problem is the fact that PFAS are known as “forever chemicals” because they build up in your body over time. The FDA’s limits fail to take into account the cumulative lifetime exposure people are subjected to when even things like ready-made chocolate cake are contaminated with these chemicals.
Northwell Health Chief of Occupational and Environmental Medicine Dr. Ken Spaeth said that while we’ve long known that pretty much every American has these chemicals inside their bodies, he takes issue with the FDA’s conclusion that there are no hazards at these levels.
Just what is at stake here in terms of your health? So far, PFAS have been linked to everything from thyroid issues and high blood pressure to reproductive harm, kidney and liver problems, and several types of cancer.
While the EPA set a health advisory for certain PFAS in the form of a lifetime exposure limit of 70 parts per trillion when it comes to drinking water, these non-enforceable limits fail to consider the fact that people are exposed to it through other products as well, such as dairy, meat and fish.
Moreover, independent scientists and other regulators have recommended safe levels be set at more than 200 times below the EPA guideline. One study by researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health and the University of Copenhagen suggested the limit be set at just 0.3 parts per trillion for PFOA and PFOS in drinking water.
Molecular Toxicologist Dr. Wendy Heiger-Bernays told Healthline that the FDA’s findings illustrate how federal regulations should be set across several agencies. She said there is sufficient evidence to set limits and believes they need to be instituted quickly because the molecules in these “forever chemicals” cannot be broken down by the body’s enzymes, microorganisms, sunlight, or anything else due to the extremely strong bond between fluorine and carbon.
If so many experts are calling for strict limits to be set, why is the FDA dragging their feet on this? We’re talking about chemicals that make their way easily into water, soil, food, dust and air and are putting people’s health at serious risk. When will something be done to protect the public from these dangerous toxins?

PUNISHING ECONOMY: San Fran's Democrat tyrants double down on closed businesses, taxing landlords for leaving stores vacant

PUNISHING ECONOMY: San Fran’s Democrat tyrants double down on closed businesses, taxing landlords for leaving stores vacant
It’s difficult to start a new business even in a fantastic economy like the one President Donald Trump and Republicans have created, but it’s never easy to create and sustain a business in a high-tax state like California.
Democrat super majorities have, for years, ratcheted up taxes, fees and other expenses including mandating minimum wages a business owner must pay, which has made it difficult, if not impossible, for new businesses to open and older smaller ones to remain afloat.
And now, those that close — at least in San Francisco — are being doubly zapped by money-grubbing Democrats who are much better at punishing failure than they are at creating success.
According to the San Francisco Chronicle, the city’s leaders are considering a “vacancy tax” on businesses that close, and more than 400 of them have in recent months due to all of the other crazy expenses the city and state foisted upon them:
To combat storefront vacancies, the Board of Supervisors may vote Tuesday to place a measure on the March ballot to tax building owners who won’t lease their commercial spaces to small businesses.
Introduced by Supervisor Aaron Peskin, the proposal was heard Wednesday by the board’s Budget and Finance Committee, which made several amendments, including adjusting the tax rate.
“We are all aware of the perennial issue of storefront vacancies in our neighborhood commercial districts, which unfortunately have been increasing in recent times,” Peskin said, according to the paper.
Absolutely unreal — but typical Left-wing ‘logic.’ Let’s not do anything to help businesses stay afloat and keep storefronts from becoming vacant in the first place; no. Let’s punish business owners after the fact because, you know, that’ll cause them to stay in business in the first place…even though they can’t afford to.
Or something like that. It’s insanity.
Democrats tax — it’s what they do
Peskin said the tax increase — actually, let’s call it what it is, a punitive fine — will compel “bad actor landlords to get off their duffs,” Peskin said, and do more to rent out commercial spaces to small businesses like, say, lowering the rent.
He also said that the levy would work to prevent landlords from trying to strong-arm tenants during business negotiations because they know on the backside they’ll get stuck with the bill.
“What this tax does, which is completely avoidable, that we do not want to collect, is give small business lessees leverage in lease negotiations,” Peskin said.
Pop quiz here: When was the last time any Democrat-run government in San Francisco or anywhere in the country offered to lower the taxes and fees they collect in order to make life easier and less expensive for those they rule over? (Related: Wealthy California suburb goes BROKE, wants residents to pony up new fees or face service cuts.)
Answer: Never. Because once Democrats get your money, they are never going to give it back — unless, of course, they are doling it out to their favored constituencies in exchange for votes.
The paper noted:
The proposal imposes a tax of $1,000 per linear feet of street frontage if it remains vacant for more than 182 days in a given tax year. The tax was amended Wednesday to start the tax at $250 per linear foot in 2021, $500 in the second year and $1,000 in the third year and beyond. The average storefront is estimated at about 25 linear feet.
And of course, for every new tax there is the overhead expense of paying people to actually administer it…which often requires more tax money to finance the extra help.
If Peskin is serious when he says that the city doesn’t really want to collect this tax, then the simple solution is to not implement it in the first place. Okay, fine; then pass an ordinance that makes it easier for storefront landlords to charge less for their rents, rather than force them to take less money than they can afford to take just so they can avoid having to pay the city.
No wonder California is turning into a basket case; fools like this one are elected to run it.

naturalnews--2020-01-25--Strange ring-shaped objects made from cereal and found in a Bronze Age dig site could have been used

( Natural News ) While ancient agricultural practices are well-documented in the archaeological record , the same can ’ t be said for food preparation and production .
This can be attributed to the relative rarity of extensive texts on the subject — best exemplified by the classical text “ De re coquinaria ” ( On The Subject of Cooking ) , which has been attributed to the Roman writer and gourmet Marcus Gavius Apicius , and the ancient Arabic text “ Kitab al- ?
ab ?
?
” ( The Book of Dishes ) by ancient historian and writer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as the fact that any foodstuff prepared by the ancients would have easily rotted away over time .
This relative rarity of food preparation records thus make the recent developments on a 40-year-old discovery at a Bronze Age hill all the more important .
The discovery in question ?
Dough rings .
As published in the journal PLOS One , archaeologists and researchers led by Andrea Heiss of the Austrian Archaeological Institute said the items , described as looking like “ mini bagels ” or “ ancient Cheerios , ” ?
were first @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the cereal storage pits in the Bronze Age hill fort site of Stillfried an der March in eastern Austria in 1978 .
The area , which covers roughly 54 acres of land near the Slovakian border , was once used as a major trade post during the late Bronze Age , Heiss said in an interview with Newsweek .
As per the details of the study , upon analysis of the items using both light and scanning electron microscopy , as well as radiocarbon dating , the researchers found that the rings , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to one-and-a-half inches in diameter , were actually made of fine barley and wheat flour and water , and that they were simply dried instead of baked .
This painstaking process , as well as the absence of salt or any dairy product in the mix is markedly different from the other cooking methods used for other food items found in similar Bronze Age sites in places such as Italy , Sweden and Switzerland , thus leading the researchers to suggest the idea that the “ ancient Cheerios ” were , in fact @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Their finely ground flour and intentional shaping certainly indicate that more time was invested in their production than necessary for subsistence , ” the researchers highlighted in their report , adding that the rings may therefore have held higher value compared to the other cereal preparations described from the area .

The researchers also noted in their study that the items bore resemblance to similarly shaped clay items known as loom weights @ @ @ @ @ @ @ keep their threads taut when weaving textiles .
This , the researchers said , lends credence to their theory that the 2,000-year-old items could have been used for ritualistic purposes , especially since late Bronze Age settlements often used loom weights as grave goods ?
– items buried with the dead to ease their passage in the afterlife .
Heiss , in his Newsweek interview , also pointed out that the latest findings can help expand the list of ways that cultures from the Bronze Age used cereal products for purposes other than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the dough rings is currently not known , they can certainly serve as a document of a much more variable—and perhaps playful— prehistoric cuisine than had previously been thought , ” Heiss said .

Strange ring-shaped objects made from cereal and found in a Bronze Age dig site could have been used in ancient rituals, researchers find
While ancient agricultural practices are well-documented in the archaeological record, the same can’t be said for food preparation and production. This can be attributed to the relative rarity of extensive texts on the subject -- best exemplified by the classical text “De re coquinaria” (On The Subject of Cooking), which has been attributed to the Roman writer and gourmet Marcus Gavius Apicius, and the ancient Arabic text “Kitab al-?ab??” (The Book of Dishes) by ancient historian and writer Ibn Sayyar al-Warraq ?-- as well as the fact that any foodstuff prepared by the ancients would have easily rotted away over time.
This relative rarity of food preparation records thus make the recent developments on a 40-year-old discovery at a Bronze Age hill all the more important. The discovery in question? Dough rings.
As published in the journal PLOS One, archaeologists and researchers led by Andrea Heiss of the Austrian Archaeological Institute said the items, described as looking like “mini bagels” or “ancient Cheerios,”? were first discovered during a dig at one of the cereal storage pits in the Bronze Age hill fort site of Stillfried an der March in eastern Austria in 1978.
The area, which covers roughly 54 acres of land near the Slovakian border, was once used as a major trade post during the late Bronze Age, Heiss said in an interview with Newsweek.
As per the details of the study, upon analysis of the items using both light and scanning electron microscopy, as well as radiocarbon dating, the researchers found that the rings, which ranged in size from roughly one to one-and-a-half inches in diameter, were actually made of fine barley and wheat flour and water, and that they were simply dried instead of baked. This painstaking process, as well as the absence of salt or any dairy product in the mix is markedly different from the other cooking methods used for other food items found in similar Bronze Age sites in places such as Italy, Sweden and Switzerland, thus leading the researchers to suggest the idea that the “ancient Cheerios” were, in fact, not made for eating.
"Their finely ground flour and intentional shaping certainly indicate that more time was invested in their production than necessary for subsistence," the researchers highlighted in their report, adding that the rings may therefore have held higher value compared to the other cereal preparations described from the area. (Related: Food residues from 500-year-old pottery in Northamptonshire suggest medieval peasant diets were healthier than modern ones.)
The researchers also noted in their study that the items bore resemblance to similarly shaped clay items known as loom weights, which were used by weavers to keep their threads taut when weaving textiles. This, the researchers said, lends credence to their theory that the 2,000-year-old items could have been used for ritualistic purposes, especially since late Bronze Age settlements often used loom weights as grave goods ?-- items buried with the dead to ease their passage in the afterlife.
Heiss, in his Newsweek interview, also pointed out that the latest findings can help expand the list of ways that cultures from the Bronze Age used cereal products for purposes other than eating.
"Although the purpose of the dough rings is currently not known, they can certainly serve as a document of a much more variable—and perhaps playful— prehistoric cuisine than had previously been thought," Heiss said.

Previous research has established that "training" the organs by using remote ischemic preconditioning to restrict blood flow may make the heart more resilient and resistant to changes in blood flow and the damage caused by lack of oxygen during a heart attack.

These cuffs were inflated for five minutes and then deflated for another five minutes, with the process repeating four times.

Study suggests Europa, Jupiter’s Moon, contains table salt in its oceans just like the oceans on Earth
A study published in the journal Science Advances believes that subterranean oceans lurking underneath the surface of Jupiter's moon Europa may have a similar salt composition to oceans on Earth after the Hubble Space Telescope spotted sodium chloride, or salt, on the surface of the icy moon. Scientists now believe that other similarities may be discovered between the oceans of the two worlds.
Four different observations of Europa were made between May to August 2017 with the Hubble as well as ground-based infrared light scans. These scans led scientists to detect sodium chloride on the moon's surface, however they did not indicate whether the surface salt came from Europa's underground oceans.
These scans found out that the sodium chloride is coming from Europa's "chaos regions," or areas on its surface that are geologically young. Scientists believe that the material in these chaos regions may be welling up from Europa's subterranean oceans.
NASA, however, is optimistic. In a statement, they said that since the region is geologically young and features abundant evidence of past geologic activity, they suspect that the salt on the surface may come from the ocean below it.
Prior to this study, the scientific consensus was that magnesium sulfate, or Epsom salt, was the main compound in Europa's subterranean oceans. This discovery is making scientists reconsider their position, with many on the research team now confident that Europa's oceans have sodium chloride. However, lead author of the study Samantha Trumbo of the California Institute of Technology states that the team is unsure of whether sodium chloride dominates or if other salts such as sulfate salts are also present in large quantities.
If sodium chloride doesn't make up the majority composition of Europa's oceans, there is still time for regular old table salt to prevail if certain geological processes work in its favor. Seafloor hydrothermal systems, like the ones that are widespread throughout the Earth's oceans, could change the chemical makeup of the icy planet's subterranean oceans. These hydrothermal vents play a crucial role in putting sodium chloride into the water.
"We do need to revisit our understanding of Europa's surface composition, as well as its internal geochemistry," said Trumbo. "If this sodium chloride is really reflective of the internal composition, then [Europa's ocean] might be more Earth-like than we used to think."
More to be discovered about Europa
Whether or not Europa's ocean is dominated by sodium chloride or magnesium sulfate, the researchers are still proud of their findings. They believe their study is an important step in uncovering more information about one of Jupiter's largest moons, and one of humanity's most viable candidates for hosting life outside of Earth.
Furthermore, the question about the chemical composition of Europa's oceans is an important one that needs to be answered quickly, as it may give the world an insight into whether or not Europa can be a host to extraterrestrial microorganisms. (Related: Towering blades of ice in Europa could get in the way of our search for alien life, scientists warn.)
A study published in the journal Nature already believes that it won't be difficult to find signs of extraterrestrial life on the icy moon. Luckily, NASA's Europa Clipper, which is expected to launch in 2025, will be studying Europa through a series of flybys while it orbits Jupiter. Its study will focus on confirming the existence of the subterranean ocean, study the chemical composition of its waters and give NASA enough evidence to weigh in on whether or not the Jovian moon can harbor life. With luck, the Europa Clipper can also find out if there are any extraterrestrial microorganisms swimming within Europa's oceans.
