DEER!!!!

 You have heard of people vandilising campaign signs before. But have you ever heard of an animal doing it? Tom and Beth Priem have experienced this first hand. They found thier Obama sign, on several occasions, had been knocked down with holes in it. So they decided to one morning wake up early and catch the culprit. It turned out to be one of the deer that roamed the neighborhood. Even the animal are beginning to take side in this election.

Libya Attack

   Chris Stevens and 3 others where killed when 20 armed men scaled the walls of the Libyan embassy, and opened fire with RPGs and machine guns. Some are speculating that the attack had already been planned, and the men were using the riot over a movie as cover to get close. While others are saying the attack was sparked by a movie, or rather movie clip insulting their prophet Mohammad. This horrible even happened on September 11, 2012,  the eleventh anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Towers in New York, The Pentagon, and a third attempted attack on the White House.

LS3

 In the past few years the military has started to look into ways for us to fight using robots. Using robots can one, limit the harm that can be done to our soldiers, two do things we can't, and over all just make it easier on the soldiers that are willing to fight for our country. DARPA's  LS3 is one of those many robots that are in development. Once finished,  it will be a robotic "pack mule" for the soldiers. Carrying some if not most of a soldiers load, such as extra ammo and other things that may slow him or her down.

Four soldiers

  Four off duty soldiers returning to their unit were recently killed due to a roadside bombing. The fighting in Iraq has quieted a bit since the it began in 2003, however, things like this still happen every so often. As seen from history, that region has been stooped in violence for a very long time. Sadly, it seems that fact will not change anytime soon.
