This is a mixed bag because he's used the EPA to put lead smelters, who make ammunition, out of business, thus effectively doing an end run around the second amendment.

A massive meteor descended onto the city of San Diego Wednesday night before vaporizing in the air, raising the hair on the backs of local residents concerned for their safety.

SAN DIEGO (INTELLIHUB) — 911 calls came pouring in Wednesday night as people around the area were concerned after witnessing a massive meteor fall from the sky just East of the metropolis. The sheer size and brightness of the meteor has even attracted scientists to respond and has some wondering if planet earth will soon be facing another extinction much like the dinosaurs did millions of years ago.
Reports say that the meteor “disintegrated in the sky” just before impact “with over 30 times the force measured of the bomb blast that destroyed Hiroshima”. Scientists say that this can happen as the “solar system is a shooting gallery”. However, this type activity can be expected for this time of the year.[1]
“I saw this big, greenish flash like, light up the sky. It was headed pretty sideways from like, east to west. I thought, ‘Is that a firework?’ And then I realized, that couldn’t be that big. It’s just in the middle of nowhere in a totally dark area where there’s no houses or anything where anyone would shoot fireworks. I thought, ‘Man, it must have been a meteor” CNN reported one witness saying.[1]
These meteors typically travel at 10 miles per second once they have entered the atmosphere and have been known to actually “knock people off their feet” like the one that descended on Russia earlier this year.
Neil Tyson, the director for the Hayden Planetarium explained on a CNN newscast that the government and NASA now possess the technology to deflect meteors to some extent as seen with NASA’s Project Deep Impact mission. “96 percent of what is driving this universe is “dark matter” Tyson explains, informing the viewers that the universe is a vast and rather expansive thing.[1]
According to eyewitness reports the meteor “broke into 3 large pieces”.[2]
NASA has recently announced that a meteor hitting the planet is 4 to 5 times more likely than originally thought. NASA now claims there are 20 million meteors up in the sky orbiting around earth which has gotten some wondering when the next massive impact will be.[2]

Satellite falling to Earth
Satellite will fall back to Earth, but where?
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
- Nobody knows where or when fragments will strike Earth
- Pieces most likely to hit oceans and unpopulated areas
- European Space Agency launched satellite in 2009
(CNN)
-- A European satellite that ran out of fuel will start falling in the
next few days, and fragments of the disintegrating 2,000-pound
spacecraft are expected to strike the Earth's surface.
Nobody
knows where or when the fragments will hit, but the European Space
Agency has said the parts are likely to fall into the ocean or
unpopulated areas. Potential spots will be narrowed down closer to
re-entry, ESA said on its website.
Re-entry
probably will occur Sunday or Monday, Rune Floberghagen, mission
manager for the Gravity Field and Steady-State Ocean Explorer, better
known as GOCE, told the New York Times.
GOCE
was launched in 2009 to map variations in the Earth's gravity in 3D,
provide ocean circulation patterns and make other measurements.

European GOCE satellite falling to Earth – stay calm
The European GOCE satellite is falling uncontrollably to Earth but no one need worry too much

one-tonne satellite is falling uncontrollably towards the Earth. It is
expected to hit sometime late this weekend or early next week. No one
knows exactly when or where it will smash down but it is likely to
fragment into 25-45 pieces en route.
Written in those terms it
sounds like pretty scary stuff, and indeed the news is making headlines
across the web. Many seem to have been triggered by a piece in the New
York Times, titled Satellite Will Fall to Earth, But No One Is Sure Where.
Perhaps a more sensible headline would have been Satellite Will Fall to Earth, But No One Need Worry Too Much.
The spacecraft in question is the European Space Agency's Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) mission. Since 2009, GOCE has been measuring the Earth's gravitational field with exquisite sensitivity.

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-11-08/guest-post-obamas-socialism-experiment-brought-home
An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama’s socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.
The professor then said, “OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama’s plan”.. All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade so no one will fail and no one will receive an A…. (substituting grades for dollars – something closer to home and more readily understood by all).
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.
The second test average was a D! No one was happy. When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.
As the tests proceeded, the scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
To their great surprise, ALL FAILED and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed. Could not be any simpler than that.
Here are possibly the 5 key points about such an experiment:
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.

In response to the polio outbreak in war-torn Syria, United Nations officials today announced an immunization campaign aiming to reach 20 million children in seven countries over the next 6 months.
Officials also said preliminary evidence suggests that the polio strain in Syria is of Pakistani origin and is similar to the strains detected in sewage in Egypt, Israel, and the Palestinian territories (the West Bank and Gaza Strip) in the past year.
The announcement from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) called the effort "the largest-ever consolidated immunization response in the Middle East." It targets children in Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, and the Palestinian territories.
Syria's polio outbreak is the first there since 1999 and has left 10 children paralyzed. Emergency polio immunization efforts in and around Syria have already reached 650,000 children, including 116,000 in the "highly contested" northeastern province of Deir-ez-Zor, where the outbreak was confirmed last week, the WHO statement said.
It said the campaign aims to reach 1.6 million children in Syria with vaccines against polio, measles, mumps, and rubella. Syria's polio immunization rate has dropped from 90% before the civil war to 68% today.
In Jordan, more than 18,800 children under age 5 in the Za'atari refugee camp have received polio vaccine in the past few days, and a nationwide campaign aims to reach 3.5 million people with polio, measles, and rubella vaccines, the WHO said. A vaccination drive has also been launched in western Iraq, and another will start soon in the country's Kurdistan region.
In addition, Lebanon plans to launch a nationwide immunization campaign later this week, and efforts in Turkey and Egypt are expected to start by mid-November, the agency said.
"The Middle East has shown exactly the coordinated leadership needed to combat a deadline virus: a consolidated and sustained assault on a vaccine-preventable disease and an extraordinary commitment to a common purpose," said Ala Alwan, MD, the WHO's regional director for the Eastern Mediterranean, in the WHO statement.
UNICEF has acquired 1.35 billion doses of polio vaccine so far this year and will have obtained up to 1.7 billion doses by year's end to meet increased demand, the UN agencies said. The Syrian outbreak has increased the pressure on a global supply that was already being stretched, they said.
