Latest mule strategy.
Infuse the blood then extract after arrival at the destination.
Of course it is hazardous for the tiny containers.
[NBC4] A motorcyclist who drew social media attention across Southern California and prompted an investigation by the California Highway Patrol was critically hurt in another dangerous stunt. I blame the water. There's something in the Simi Valley water.
The first stunt captured on video March 3 showed the 24-year-old San Clemente motorcyclist jumping over the 60 Freeway as cars passed underneath him.
He was identified by a friend as Kyle Katsandris. Simi Valley police have not yet confirmed his identity to NBC4. The wild stunt video was viewed hundreds of thousands of times, and prompted an investigation by the California Highway Patrol.
Mexico is the 4th largest exporter of oil to the US
Mexico is the largest importer of refined gasoline from the US
The Mexican government has not been doing a lot of expansion leases for oil companies the past decade
Oil exports is one of the few areas that Mexico is good at and is a fairly corrupt free enterprise (for Mexican standards) and provides much needed foreign coin that doesn't go to the drug cartels.
The fact that Mexico has not expanded its oil reserves is a huge mistake with the shale industry taking off. There isn't a huge demand for new deepwater oil exploration with the US doing so well with fracking and opening up its shores. There has also been new fields found in the North Sea and other friendly business countries.
I predict the Mexican oil exports will slowly dry up over the next decade as bringing new fields online will take time for the new oil glut to clear out a bit and for investors to start looking at Mexico.
In the mean time, their treasuries will start to empty as they will have more capital going out to pay for imports than come in. This is also a major reason they will fight so hard to keep illegals in the US. It is a major source of revenue.
Time will see if they can weather the lean years coming or if they go the way of Venezuela.
[SCMP] North Korea has warned it will retaliate if the global community ramps up sanctions over its latest round of weapons tests.
The warning comes after US President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... threatened the United States was prepared to go it alone and "solve North Korea" if China did not step in.
The isolated state has quickened its missile programme in recent months, with a volley of tests it says are putting it closer to acquiring the ability to hit the US mainland with a nuclear weapon. US-based analysts have said North Korea appears to be preparing a new atomic test. It has staged five nuclear tests so far, two last year.
North Korea’s foreign ministry on Monday assailed Washington for its tough talk and for an ongoing joint military exercise with South Korea and Japan which Pyongyang sees as a dress rehearsal for invasion.
The "reckless actions" are driving the tense situation on the Korean peninsula "to the brink of a war", a ministry front man was quoted as saying by the official KCNA news agency.
The idea that the US could deprive Pyongyang of its "nuclear deterrent" through sanctions is "the wildest dream".

[Dhaka Tribune] A Moslem elementary school in Sweden, which separated boys and girls on a bus and during sports lessons, sparked controversy on Tuesday with the prime minister condemning it as "despicable".
As part of a documentary, Swedish broadcaster TV4 filmed secret footage of the privately-run al-Azhar Primary School in a Stockholm suburb where boys are seen entering a bus from the front and girls from the back.
Aged between six and 10, the students take the school bus in the mornings and evenings to go to and from school in the working-class neighbourhood of Vallingby, northwest of Stockholm.
"I think this is despicable. This doesn’t belong in Sweden," Prime Minister Stefan Lofven told news hounds in Stockholm.
"We take the bus together here, regardless if you’re a girl or a boy, woman or a man."
This isn’t the first controversy surrounding the school. In August last year, Swedish media revealed that teachers had agreed to gender-segregated sport lessons.
The school argued that gender-mixed sports courses would cause some parents to stop their children from attending.
The school’s vice principal said it had no intention of carrying out gender-segregated activities.
"I don’t know why it still turned out that way," Roger Lindquist told TT news agency. "It was a mistake."
But the school says on its website that "boys and girls have separate courses in swimming and sports".
Lofven has asked Education Minister Gustav Fridolin to contact the school and propose measures on what can be done to prevent segregation.
"The school has a duty to end outdated segregation norms," Fridolin told public broadcaster SVT. "This must concern all schools."

"I think this is despicable. This doesn’t belong in Sweden,"
Yeah it is but who invited them in and told them they had the run of the house?
You don't turn you house into a pig sty and then complain about the stench and pig shit unless you're a clueless ass.
First, the 26th Amendment and changed the voting age from 21 to 18. The reasoning was that if a person was old enough to die for his country, then he (or "she" as it is today) should be able to vote in elections. Registration to vote after death, now a call for voter registration at birth. What's next, registration before birth?."
In Washington state, a local Democratic leader wants people registered to vote at birth.
In Nevada and New Mexico, a liberal group is pressuring the legislatures to let people register when they get driver’s licenses.
In Ohio, progressive activists have thrown their support behind a mayoral candidate because she fights with Republicans about voting access.
Across the country, Democrats and their allies are plotting a quiet and disjointed but considerable push to make voting easier by dismantling registration barriers and promoting candidates who want to expand voting rights. It’s all an effort to reshape the electorate by creating new Democratic voters.
If successful, the effect could be profound. The more people who vote, the better Democrats usually do in everything from a marquee presidential election to little-noticed municipal race.
"Democrats have been on the defensive," said Tina Podlodowski, chairwoman of the Washington State Democratic Party. "We’ve tried to get on the offensive, and I think people are starting to listen more and more to that.

Raise the minimum age to vote to 35, and require photo ID. A lot of problems would be solved, overnight.

The Democratic effort faces strong headwinds; year after year the country has voted in more Republicans -- and more conservative Republicans -- at every level.

Registering at birth + infant mortality means someone gets a vote (or two or three) when the time comes.
Back to 21, unless serving (with at least 6 months under their belt) then 18. The original rationale was old enough to die for their country, well if you're not in, then you won't, therefore you don't qualify.
Of course the 'die for your country' argument should tie voter registration with registering for selective service, but that would be sexist since only one gender has to.
Yeah. Then an abortion but the voter remains registered just in case mommy wants to cast an extra ballot.

What's next, registration before birth?
Remember the Orwellian titled Employee Free Choice Act? I had this mental image of twenty years from now of a classroom of preschoolers all holding up their brand new Party Voting Cards. 'Card Check' cards that gave the Permanent People's Democratic Party their life-long proxy vote -- after all, think how efficient the new voting process would be!

[USA Today] WASHINGTON -- President Trump has signed an executive order removing his chief political strategist, Steve Bannon, from a key national security post.
The move also restores the director of national intelligence, CIA director, and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to full participation on the National Security Council's principals committee, the panel that Bannon previously had a seat on.
A senior White House official confirmed the move, saying that Bannon was given the post as a check on former national security adviser Michael Flynn. But Flynn was fired in February after misleading Vice President Pence about the substance of his discussions with the Russian ambassador after attending only one meeting, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a personnel matter.
Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, the new national security adviser, will be given more control over the council and its agenda. Trump's decision to reorganize the principals committee came at McMaster's urging, the official said.
Trump signed the executive order, known as a national security presidential memorandum, on Tuesday. But the White House did not announce the move, and it didn't come to light until the order was filed with the Office of the the Federal Register on Wednesday.
Trump's decision in January to include Bannon in National Security Council deliberations was controversial. Although he served as a junior officer in the Navy Reserve, he had little national security experience. He came to the White House via the Trump campaign and, before that, as the executive chairman of Breitbart News, a website that often gave voice to his conservative, nationalistic ideas on trade and immigration.

Shake up? or just an acting CO till Trump got someone with better matching qualifications? I did a 60 day stint between outgoing and incoming senior officers, then went back to just being a techie.
I never would have guessed...
