SCIENTISTS CURE CANCER, BUT NO ONE TAKES NOTICE
Canadian researchers find a simple cure for cancer, but major pharmaceutical companies are not
interested.Researchers at the University of Alberta, in Edmonton, Canada have cured cancer last week, yet
there is a little ripple in the news or in TV. It is a simple technique using very basic drug. The method
employs dichloroacetate, which is currently used to treat metabolic disorders. So, there is no concern of side
effects or about their long term effects.

FRIENDS
A one-time limited GAO audit of the Federal Reserve that was mandated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act has uncovered some eye-popping corruption at the Fed and the
mainstream media is barely even covering it.  It turns out that the Federal Reserve made $16.1 trillion in

  BROKE STATE IGNORING SAFETY WITH TRUCKSTOP CLOSURES: MTA
MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota’s politicians can’t agree on a debt-reduction plan and until they do, the state has
effectively shut down all sorts of state services. Some, as schools, are considered critical and therefore left
open. But others, for instance state-operated rest areas for trucks and roadside-inspection processing, are
shut down.

  HR 1505: DO YOU WANT HOMELAND SECURITY TAKING CONTROL OF SEA SHORES
AND COASTAL AREAS?
A new bill in the House of Representatives sponsored by Rob Bishop (R-UT) will expand the power of the
Department of Homeland Security in coastal states. This directly from the bill, "To prohibit the Secretaries of
the Interior and Agriculture from taking action on public lands which impede border security on such lands,
and for other purposes." So much for states rights being defended by the GOP.

  A COMPLETELY NEW KIND OF AIRCRAFT PROPULSION SYSTEM, MADE OF ROTATING
CYLINDERS
An Austrian engineering firm debuted a new type of hovercraft at the Paris Air Show this week, claiming it can
take off and land vertically without using any rotor blades or fixed wings. The D-Dalus vehicle uses four
contra-rotating turbines for propulsion, each reaching 2,200 rpm. Each turbine blade has a variable angle of
attack, which according to the designer allows the main thrust to be fired in any direction, around any axis.
This allows the craft to launch vertically, hover, rotate in any direction and even thrust upwards, holding itself
down.

  REMINDER: ALABAMA STEEL COIL LAW
Alabama law requires motor carriers involved in transporting steel coils to use truck drivers trained and
certified in properly securing these coils. The Alabama Department of Public Safety is charged with setting
the training standards. ADPS has partnered with the Alabama Trucking Association (ATA) to offer Web-based

driver would face a fine of $5,000 to $10,000. The uncertified driver would also face of fine of $250 to $1,000,
and as much as a year in jail.

PRODUCED SECRETIVELY FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS
Scientists have created more than 150 human-animal hybrid embryos in British laboratories. The hybrids
have been produced secretively over the past three years by researchers looking into possible cures for a
wide range of diseases. The revelation comes just a day after a committee of scientists warned of a
nightmare ‘Planet of the Apes’ scenario in which work on human-animal creations goes too far.

  TAKING AIM AT DETENTION TIME
Ah, detention time: two of the ugliest words in trucking’s lexicon, and they’ve dogged this industry for
decades. For drivers, in particular, detention time remains particularly frustrating, hurting their wallet (as
most don’t get paid for sitting at a shipper’s dock waiting to load or unload) while shredding their schedule to
pieces, especially in terms of staying in compliance with hours of service (HOS) rules. The debate over what
to do about detention time is reaching a fever pitch of sorts of late, particularly as members of Congress
propose to drive a legislative stake through the heart of this nasty issue once and for all.

SOME PEOPLE TALK ABOUT SPACE-TIME INVISIBILITY CLOAKS. AT CORNELL, THEY
BUILT ONE
We’ve written previously about the theoretical possibility of “event cloaks”--metamaterial space-time devices
that could theoretically conceal an entire event in time from the view of an outsider. Well, while some bright
minds were just talking about bending space-time to their whims, a team at Cornell was doing it. And it
works. For 110 nanoseconds.
