NEW YORK, NY — With terror suspect Najibullah Zazi in custody, accused to plotting to bomb NYC mass transit, experts are now weighing on how Zazi's purchases from a beauty supply store were very dangerous. They say that Zazi “had the means to kill scores of people — not hundreds or thousands,” with retired FBI explosives expert Denny Kline saying, “These explosives are meant to be concealed easily and deployed easily and kill and maim and cause havoc in small areas.”

A Spine Is A Terrible Thing To Waste! – Are All Our Faculties Headed In The Same Direction?

By Rabbi Yoseph Kahanov – Jax, Florida

You’re sitting on a plane buckled-up in your seat, the plane is pushing back. You’re ready to relax – read a book, close your eyes and catch up on some badly needed sleep — but there’s one more piece of business to be taken care-of before you can kick back; the airline safety demonstration. This, you know, is when the flight attendant gets up to do her/his little buckle-vest-mask ditty.
