Mystery Launch off California Coast


Posted: Nov 9, 2010

The link posted is for the video. Part of the story is from another news source.

 

The unmistakable contrail of a missile streaking into the California sunset was captured on video last night by a KCBS news helicopter flying over Los Angeles at around 5 p.m. Pacific time.

The missile firing drew more attention when local news stations were told by Navy and Air Force officials that they did not launch a missile last night.

Flying above Los Angeles, the crew aboard the helicopter estimated the missile was fired approximately 35 miles west out to sea, north of Catalina Island.

The missile appeared to have been launched at sea, which prompted speculation that it had been launched by a U.S. Navy vessel.

However, Navy officials contacted by local news stations said they were unaware of a missile launch in that area. Contacted by ABC News, a Navy official said today they were still looking into the report, but, a preliminary check indicated it was not a Navy asset

California Prop 187 In 1994 LOST California For The GOPNov 07, 2012
red for Reagan and H.W. Bush, but NO more. California's gone very blue in Presidential elections ever since. For those who don't remember, 187 was an attempt by conservatives to deny schooling and healthcare to illegal immigrant children. It outraged MANY of all backgrounds, but it especially activated the Hispanics it was aimed at; and although it was later voided as unconstitutional, the damage it did to the GOP lives on. If no 187, we might well have woke up to a President-Elect ...

The attack in Pul-i-Alam, some 80 kilometers (50 miles) east of Kabul and the capital of Logar province, started when the first bomber detonated his explosives at the gate of the police headquarters, said Din Moha ...

The Mysterious Mystery Of Disappearing Funds Sep 13, 2016
Donald Trump was in a tuxedo, standing next to his award: a statue of a palm tree, as tall as a toddler. It was 2010, and Trump was being honored by a charity — the Palm Beach Police Foundation — for his “selfless support” of its cause. His support did not include any of his own money. Instead, Trump had found a way to give away somebody else’s money and claim the credit for himself. Trump had earlier gone to a charity in New Jersey — the Charles Evans Foun ...

Billy Nungesser On Gulf Coast CleanupJun 22, 2010
I saw part of this on C-Span this morning, and thought you would like to view it. It's 35 minutes long, but very interesting. The first minute is just him saying hello to everyone, then the ride in the elevator up to the main room where the map is, and from there, the conversation gets pretty interesting. I believe this took place yesterday, but not sure. http://www.c-span.org/Watch/Media/2010/06/20/HP/A/34464/Plaquemines+Parish+President+Billy+Nungesser+on+Gulf+Coast+Cleanup+Efforts.aspx ...

MT In CaliforniaNov 05, 2016
When Nuance laid off all California MTs, I began to wonder what was happening but that was employees.  TTS wrote me and said they will not hire any from California. I have applied to numerous jobs and hardly a word.  I have passed tests at 96% and still, have not been hired.  I purposefully applied somewhere and left off my address.  I saw there were 400 hits so I figured I would not hear from them.  Today I got an email asking, "Where are you located?"  Am I correc ...

California Principal May 08, 2010
How awful this whole thing is.  It is apparent that the school officials just wanted to avoid any unrest, but they ended up setting the stage anyway.  I don't think they could have avoided it no matter what they did, but it seems it would have been much better if they had announced that there would probably be those who choose to wear the American flag.  The students should have been counseled on how to handle situations such as these as a group, and made fully aware of the c ...

About Obamacare, I Just Found Out In California, SMOct 14, 2013
that many of the exchange plans will not have the same doctors as the non-exchange plans. Blue Shield will only offer 50% of the doctors and only 40% of the hospitals as the same non-exchange plans. I guess you have to sign up for it before you know what's in it. Pun intended. The silver lining to all of this is that market forces are about to be re-introduced into the health CARE industry. I've read about doctors opening cash only clinics, and like Medicare will pass on Obamaca ...

Anyone On Covered California (Obamacare)?Mar 05, 2015
I am thinking of letting go of my terrible work insurance where the premiums are nearly $200 per month. I can quailfy for subsidies from Obamacare because my income is so disgustingly low. I'm wondering if anyone has trouble with getting prescriptions covered? Do you have to pay full price for them and are those costs rolled into the deductible? Did you have to change doctors? I believe I would have to do that if I select the bronze plan. I figured out the cost of my current premiums and ...
