[NYDAILYNEWS] This customer really wanted to have it her way.
A woman at a South Carolina Burger King threatened to shoot everyone in the restaurant after she was served a stale cinnamon roll, police said.
The suspect was eating at the Mount Pleasant location with two friends Tuesday when she complained that her cinnamon bun wasn't fresh, the Post and Courier reported.
She became angry and started shouting, but stormed out when a manager tried to speak to her, a witness told police.
But, the three friends came back later, and the woman threatened to shoot the restaurant's employees and patrons, police said.
According to the police report, the furious woman said, "I'm going to shoot down the place."
She left, again, with her friends when employees called police.
Police said they have not found the suspect, and no one has been tossed in the clink Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! .

[Ynet] During PA President's stay at Caracas, Venezuelan President says country will provide shipment of 240,000 barrels of oil to PA; Abbas thanks Venezuela for support in 'breaking Israel's monopoly on our economy.'
Won't China disapprove? I thought they'd pre-bought all Venezuela's production in perpetuity.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro pledged Friday to send oil and diesel to the Paleostinian Authority, as part of agreements signed with its leader the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... during his visit to Caracas.
Venezuela, which sits atop the world's largest oil reserves, said it would provide an initial shipment of 240,000 barrels of oil, but gave no details as to how it would send them.
"Thanks to Venezuela for supporting Paleostine... to break Israel's monopoly on our economy, for your response to our needs, for your willingness to support the Paleostinian people in their long struggle," Abbas said, according to an official translation.
During the meeting, Maduro also agreed to support the Paleostinian Authority's quest to be granted observer status in three Latin American regional organizations: the Union of South American Nations (UNASUR), the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA) and the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC).
"The Paleostinian people have the right to maintain commercial relations with the world as well," Maduro said.
During his third visit to Venezuela in five years, Abbas visited the grave of Maduro's predecessor, longtime leader Hugo Chavez, who died of cancer last year.
Abbas arrived in Caracas on Thursday after meeting with US Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you know Kerry Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat, conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State... in London the day before, a first since the grinding of the peace processor between the Paleostinians and Israelis collapsed.
Abbas's visit comes amid months of at times bloody protests that have rocked Venezuela since February.
Maduro has called the unrest, which has claimed at least 42 lives, a coup attempt backed by the United States, raising tensions with Washington, which has repeatedly denied the claim.

"According to OGJ, Venezuela had 1.28 million bbl/d of crude oil refining capacity in 2012, all operated by PdVSA. The major facilities include the Paraguana Refining Center (955,000 bbl/d), Puerto de la Cruz (195,000 bbl/d), El Palito (126,900 bbl/d), and San Roque (5,200 bbl/d)."

China gets about 450,000 bbl/day out of an exportable total of roughly 2.2 million bbl/day. PetroCaribe (Cuba, Jamaica and assorted beggar states) get 150,000 bbl./day for next to nothing.

Surrounded by friends with oil rich land and the PA has to get oil from the other side of the world. If I was Israel I would charge $99 / barrel import tax.

Whatever arrives will be all diesel, if any petroleum is shipped it'll be skimmed off at a way point. Or it might be a ghost shipment of petroleum, Vzla is way the hell beyond corrupt.
President Hugo Chavez's government has sold China oil for as little as $5 a barrel and was upset that China apparently profited by selling fuel to other countries, according to a classified U.S. document released by WikiLeaks.
The report about Chinese companies diverting oil was one of several newly released documents that also describe falling crude output in Venezuela caused by a host of problems within the national oil company Petroleos de Venezuela SA, or PDVSA.
The documents, posted online Monday by the Spanish newspaper El Pais, also showed that American officials have managed to cultivate sources within the state oil company in spite of Chavez's antagonism toward Washington.
The confidential memo from the U.S. Embassy in Caracas on Feb. 26 said a PDVSA director revealed that the state company "had analyzed its crude sales to China and determined that China had only paid $5/barrel of crude on a couple of deals" - a small fraction of the market price...
[MercoPress] Bolivian President Evo Morales revealed on Thursday that, with Argentina's help, his country was working to develop nuclear power. Morales had previously indicated that his country had plans to go nuclear with help from both Buenos Aires and La Belle France, but this is the first time that the news was confirmed.
[Iran Press TV] A group of Ukrainian forces has defected to the self-proclaimed People's Republic of Donetsk.
The event comes after the People's Republic of Donetsk announced it is not after holding talks with Kiev's interim government.
Donetsk Republic's Prime Minister Aleksandr Boroday vowed on Saturday that there would be no negotiations until the complete withdrawal of Kiev's forces from the region.
"As long as the territories are occupied, there will be no dialogue with Kiev," local news agency Ostrov quoted Boroday as saying at a presser.
The remarks came as Ukraine's acting President Oleksandr Turchynov changed heads of four regions in Donetsk Province.
Ukraine's prosecutor general declared the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk republics as "terrorist organizations." In a statement released on Saturday, the prosecutor's office said these two regions have financiers and arms supply channels.
Meanwhile, ...back at the bunker, his Excellency called a hurried meeting of his closest advisors. It was to be his last. They discussed the officers's efficiency rating system... self-defense forces in Donetsk said they had tossed in the calaboose Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! nearly 100 people for provocation against the region's self-proclaimed republic.
Additionally, the deadline for an ultimatum set by Donetsk self-defense forces, which demanded the pullout of the Ukrainian troops from the territory, passed on Friday.
Deputy Commander of "the People's Militia of Donbass" Sergey Zdrilyuk threatened to use force against the Kiev military troops if the demand was not met.

[AnNahar] North Korea's state media reported Sunday an "unimaginable" accident at an apartment construction site in Pyongyang, which had resulted in an unspecified number of casualties.
The Fly Ash army wins again.
South Korean officials said the incident involved the collapse of a 23-storey apartment building, which already had close to 100 families in residence.
It is extremely rare for North Kora to report negative news of this type, and the despatch from the official KCNA news agency included equally rare apologies from brass hats.
KCNA said the accident had occurred last Tuesday and was the result of "irresponsible" supervision by officials in charge of the construction.
An "intensive" emergency rescue effort had been carried out to rescue survivors and treat the maimed, it said.
The KCNA did not provide a corpse count or elaborate on the cause of the collapse, but said it had left Pyongyang citizens "greatly shocked".
The agency carried lengthy public apologies by bigwigs including the Minister of People's Security, Choe Pu-Il.
"(Choe) repented of himself, saying that he failed to find out factors that can put at risk the lives and properties of the people and to take thorough-going measures, thereby causing an unimaginable accident," it said.
-- Kim 'up all night, feeling painful' --
A South Korean official, speaking on condition of anonymity ... for fear of being murdered... , said Seoul was aware of the incident which involved the collapse of a 23-storey apartment complex.
"It is common in North Korea that people move into a new apartment building before construction officially ends," the official told AFP.
The official said 92 families were believed to be living in the collapsed building, and the final corpse count was likely to be "considerable".
The North's leader Kim Jong-Un "sat up all night, feeling painful" after being told about the accident, according to a senior Pyongyang official quoted by the KCNA.
The young leader "instructed leading officials of the party, state and the army to rush to the scene, putting aside all other affairs and command the rescue operation," Kim Su-Gil, chief secretary of the city committee of the ruling Workers' Party, said in his public apology.
All Pyongyang citizens were "sharing sorrow" with the bereaved families and victims, the official said, calling all to "overcome sorrow with courage".
About 2.5 million people -- mostly political elites including senior party members or those with privileged background -- are believed to live in Pyongyang.
Pyongyang residents are known to enjoy better access to electricity, food, goods and other services than those living elsewhere in the impoverished and isolated country.
The secretive nation has rarely made public the details -- especially corpse counts -- of major accidents.
But in one exceptional case, the North announced in April 2004 a massive train kaboom in the northwestern county of Ryongchon had left 154 -- including dozens of schoolchildren -- dead and some 1,300 injured.
The accident -- caused by damaged electric wires -- devastated many nearby towns, prompting Pyongyang to make a rare plea for help from the international community.
The North is under layers of U.N. sanctions imposed after its disputed nuclear and missile tests, and suffers chronic shortages in food to fuel and medical supplies.

An unimaginable nuclear accident is a real possibility, too. SKorea and the Chinese on the North side better address that since a fallout would not be good.

Those 100 families must be people that Pudgy needs.

After Chernobyl, I can image quite a bit. In winter the winds blow from the north-west, so out to sea. In the summer, the winds come from the south so too bad China and Russia.

Things are seldom what they seem,
Skim milk masquerades as cream;
Highlows pass as patent leathers;
Jackdaws strut in peacock's feathers.
Very true,
So they do.
Black sheep dwell in every fold;
All that glitters is not gold;
Storks turn out to be but logs;
Bulls are but inflated frogs.
So they be,
Frequentlee.
Drops the wind and stops the mill;
Turbot is ambitious brill;
Gild the farthing if you will,
Yet it is a farthing still.
Yes, I know.
That is so.

Hezbollah is deploying missile launchers in residential areas.
Why wouldn't the Norks explicitly protect secret and sensitive facilities with dedicated human shields aka 'apartment complexes?'
#13
Pyongsong, the site where nork nuclear work is concentrated, is 31 miles northeast of Pyongyang. No reason not to hide something under an apartment building. Hard to hide the thermals though.

Wonder who Pudgy will blame and what sort of imaginative public execution will he/they receive?
My vote is to put him/them in a cement mixer with lots of glass shards and then set for max revs.....

[AnNahar] China has evacuated more than 3,000 of its nationals from Vietnam, state media reported Sunday, after a wave of anti-China unrest following Beijing's deployment of an oil rig in contested waters.
"Hey Hsieh, the cops went home. Let's break store windows!"
The announcement came after Vietnamese civil society groups on Saturday called for fresh demonstrations against China following riots earlier in the week which left two Chinese workers dead and more than 100 injured.
But Vietnamese authorities, which have occasionally allowed protests to vent anger at the country's giant neighbor, warned they would "resolutely" prevent any further outbursts.
More than 3,000 Chinese nationals had been evacuated from Vietnam as of Saturday afternoon, China's official Xinhua news agency reported early Sunday.
"They returned to China with the assistance of (the) Chinese Embassy to Vietnam," it said, citing China's Foreign Ministry.
The Chinese government is also arranging for a chartered plane and vessel to evacuate the staff of China 19th Metallurgical Corporation, a contractor of one of the plants badly hit by the recent violence, Xinhua added.
Earlier Saturday Beijing advised its nationals against travelling to Vietnam, which has over the past week seen its worst anti-China unrest in decades.
Beijing's positioning of an oil rig in waters also claimed by Vietnam in the South China Sea has ignited long-simmering enmity between the two communist neighbors, which have fought territorial skirmishes in past decades.
Worker demonstrations spread to 22 of Vietnam's 63 provinces in the last week, according to the Vietnamese government, with enraged mobs torching foreign-owned factories.
"Recently, there was an kaboom of violence in South Vietnam targeting foreign companies, provoking injuries and death of Chinese citizens and damaging companies' properties," China's Foreign Ministry said in a statement in Chinese on its website Saturday.
"The Foreign Ministry advises Chinese nationals temporarily not to travel to Vietnam. (It also advises) Chinese citizens and structures in Vietnam to increase their risk-awareness, to strengthen their security prevention measures, and to avoid leaving (their premises)."
Hong Kong also updated its travel advisory Saturday, warning its residents to avoid "non-essential travel" to Vietnam.
Earlier Saturday, Xinhua reported that security chief Guo Shengkun had spoken to his Vietnamese counterpart and urged the authorities there to quell the violence. Xinhua also said commerce minister Gao Hucheng had called on officials to "bring relevant issues under control".
An alliance of 20 vocal Vietnamese NGOs has called for fresh protests in the capital Hanoi, the southern economic hub of Ho Chi Minh City, and other areas against China's "aggressive actions" in the South China Sea.
However, some people are alive only because it's illegal to kill them... it urged participants to remain peaceful following the chaos Tuesday and Wednesday.
"Those violent actions created a bad image for patriotic demonstrations and the people of Vietnam; therefore, they must be stopped," said a statement issued on social media late Friday.
The alliance comprises largely of anti-government organizations and is believed to have played a role in stirring the recent protests.
In a text message sent by the government to Vietnamese mobile phone users Saturday, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung said authorities across the country had been ordered to "implement measures to resolutely prevent illegal demonstrations that could cause social and security disorder".
China's deployment of the giant rig is viewed in Hanoi as a provocative assertion of Beijing's hotly-disputed claims in the South China Sea, and has been criticized by Washington as exacerbating territorial tensions.
There have been repeated skirmishes near the controversial rig in recent days between Chinese and Vietnamese vessels, including collisions and the use of water cannon.
The violent attacks on Chinese personnel at foreign-invested factories in Vietnam have further aggravated the situation, with China accusing Hanoi of a role in the unrest.
Beijing, which has refused to budge on the oil rig, has said two Chinese nationals were killed and more than 100 injured over the past week.
The attacks on foreign enterprises -- which included Chinese, Taiwanese and Korean businesses -- appear to have spooked Vietnamese authorities, which depends heavily on foreign investment for economic growth.
But, while condemning China's maritime actions, the government has warned against further protests and pledged foreign investments would be protected.
The oil-rig confrontation is the latest to spark alarm among China's Southeast Asian neighbors, which complain of increasing maritime intimidation by Beijing.
China claims nearly all of the South China Sea, which is believed to hold significant offshore energy reserves.

...My understanding is that the ROC is also evacuating its citizens, as the good people of Vietnam are apparently not being discriminating in their ire.
And the PRC should remember - though it's unlikely they will - that Vietnam handed them their asses back in '79, IIRC. This may call for some industrial quantities of Red on Red(TM) brand popcorn.....

Yes they did hand them their asses, but those soldiers do not exist now. They were tough and hardened, but they are now old and retired just like our Vietnam vets. Now they are a peace time army used only to control their indigenous population, and the chinks have modernized their army while RVA, not so much.
[FRESNOBEE] Engine maker Pratt & Whitney is leaving Southern Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, which will eliminate 530 jobs as defense spending contracts and the company consolidates its operations.
The defense contractor announced Thursday that it plans to close its AeroPower facility in San Diego over the next two years, U-T San Diego reported (http://bit.ly/1hP6ZCn ).
AeroPower makes auxiliary power units for military and commercial airplanes. The units are engines used mainly to provide electricity and air conditioning to aircraft on the ground, and to start a plane's main engines.
"This decision, while a difficult one to make, is necessary to maintain our competitiveness in the market, further leverage Pratt & Whitney's network and best position the company for the future," front man Ray Hernandez said in a statement.
AeroPower's military business will move to Pratt & Whitney's Military Engines organization. The company is considering relocating operations to existing facilities in Florida, Georgia and Texas.
The commercial side will go to Pratt & Whitney Canada, with much of the actual work being done in Poland.

As the Donks continue to cut defense (NB the only place they know how to cut government) it gives contractors the excuse opportunity to 'consolidate' in regulatory and tax climates more akin to private business - ie non-Donk states.
[Prague Post] Lidové noviny reveals the scale of Moscow's influence and intelligence gathering in the Czech Republic
Prague, May 15 (ČTK) -- The latest developments in Ukraine have stepped up the activities of Russian agents in the West, including the Czech Republic, which is an extremely interesting target for Russian spies, daily Lidové noviny (LN) writes today.
"It is no secret that the Czech Republic is an extremely interesting destination for the Russian services," Karel Randak, former head of the Czech civilian counter-intelligence, is quoted as saying.
"A large Russian community lives here, and there are interesting investment opportunities here," he added.
"Whenever they succeed in proving we are not a firm link of the EU and NATO, it is a victory for them," Andor andor, former head of the military counter-intelligence, told the paper.

[Al Ahram] Turkish rescue workers were on Saturday battling fires to reach the last two coal miners trapped by the country's worst-ever industrial disaster that has killed 301 workers and led to a surge of anger over the government response.
Energy Minister Taner Yildiz said two miners were still thought to be in the collapsed mine, based on information from families, while 485 have either escaped or been rescued since Tuesday's kaboom in the western town of Soma.
"We have identified their locations and will end the rescue operation after retrieving them," Yildiz told news hounds in Soma.
A fire in a nearby part of the mine complex had hampered rescue operations earlier in the day but had been brought under control, he said.
The nationwide trauma over the incident has turned to rage, fuelled by claims of negligence against mine operators and what many see as a heartless response from the government.
A preliminary expert report on the accident, obtained by the Milliyet newspaper, pointed to several safety violations in the mine, including a shortage of carbon monoxide detectors used to alert authorities, and ceilings made of wooden planks instead of metal, which caused the fire to spread quickly.
The report's authenticity could not be immediately verified.
Mine operator Soma Komur on Friday vehemently denied any negligence.
"We have all worked very hard. I have not seen such an incident in 20 years," said general director Akin Celik.
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan ... Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi only they haven't dumped him yet... has been the focus of mounting anger for his response, starting with an apparent attempt to downplay the incident by comparing it to mining disasters from 19th century Britannia.
There was further outrage on social media after a video emerged of him shouting an anti-Israel slur at a crowd of angry protesters -- and apparently hitting one of them.
"Why are you running away, Israeli spawn?" Erdogan is heard yelling at a protester in the footage, which surfaced after one of his advisors was photographed kicking a grieving demonstrator.

[DAWN] While ordinary residents travelling between Faizabad and Shamsabad are forced to face lots of inconvenience due to the construction work on Murree Road, Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan enjoys a comfortable drive to Islamabad from his home at Faizabad via a special crossing.
"He is a self-proclaimed champion of eliminating the 'VIP culture'," said Mohammad Akhtar, who works at a Shamsabad petrol station. "But he isn't willing to experience the suffering of the ordinary people."
Since the construction of the elevated road for the metro bus began, most of Murree Road has been reduced to potholes and mud - a situation that has been aggravated by the recent rains.
"There are 4-6 inches of mud at various parts of 6th Road to past Shamsabad - the whole car gets dirty, what will happen to motorcyclists?" asked Qazi Mohammad, a taxi driver who lives in the area. "But the road is always clean as we near Faizabad," he added.
A possible reason for the clean road past the Survey of Pakistain office is better management by contractors and authorities since the road faces the interior minister's residence.
A path has also been established specifically to facilitate the minister right in front of his home so that vehicles leaving the residence won't have to turn left to make a 'U-turn' to go towards the capital.
Not only has the centre median been cut to create the path, but also a barrier has been installed on the road divider that only allows privileged vehicles through.
"The worst part is to see the pathetic condition of the 'U-turn'. It is like driving through potholes," said Faizabad shopkeeper Mohammad Umar.

[REUTERS] Hundreds of Indians thronged the leafy streets of New Delhi on Saturday to greet Narendra Modi's triumphant march into the capital after he decimated the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty and the ruling Congress party in the biggest election victory the country has seen in 30 years.
Modi leaned far out of his car, waving a victory sign to jubilant supporters, in a drive from the airport to the headquarters of his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the center of town.
A Hindu nationalist who critics fear will be divisive ...politicians call things divisive when when the other side sez something they don't like. Their own statements are never divisive, they're principled... and autocratic, Modi toned down religious issues in his pitch to India's 815 million voters and won the world's biggest ever election with promises of economic development for all.
The three-times chief minister of the western state of Gujarat ...where rioting seems to be a traditional passtime... is an outsider to Delhi's power circle. The low-caste son of a tea stall-owner, his rise to power signals the end of an era dominated by the descendants of India's first prime minister, independence hero Jawaharlal Nehru.

[PBS] WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration has given the go-ahead for insurers and employers to use a new cost-control strategy that puts a hard dollar limit on what health plans pay for some expensive procedures, such as knee and hip replacements. The elderly don't require mobility. Mobility and exercise extend life expectancy and create a pathway for future claims.
Some experts worry that such a move would surprise patients who pick more expensive hospitals. The cost difference would leave them with big medical bills that they'd have to pay themselves. Or more likely forego the procedure, which is the gov't objective.
That could undercut key financial protections in President Barack Obama's health care law that apply not just to the new health insurance exchanges, but to most job-based coverage as well. But of course! The dollar caps will no doubt catch on quickly.
Others say it's a valuable tool to reduce costs and help check premiums. Others say it's hush money a cash producing concession to insurance providers.
Some federal regulators appear to be concerned. A recent administration policy ruling went to unusual lengths, acknowledging that the cost-control strategy "may be a subterfuge" for "otherwise prohibited limitations on coverage." HELLO! The entire Obama regime is a case study in "subterfuge."

Realestate prices just inside Mexico is going to go up, when doctors start setting up shop about 10 feet across the border to have the liberty of administering traditional American health care to people in the Southern States.
Medical ships 12 miles out in international waters would be a great idea as well.
This is less worrisome than the established media refusing to report critically on the government.
A series of emails disclosed this week indicate that officials at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) don't particularly like conservative reporters and in at least one case told a scientist to lie in order to avoid answering questions.
The Daily Caller discovered this after being subject to one of the federal agency's "freeze-outs." The right-wing website was skeptical of a CDC study that purported to show obesity rates in 2- to 5-year-olds dropping by 43 percent, and of subsequent claims that First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move! campaign played a role in the decline.
