Man gets traffic ticket for running stop sign when video shows he clearly stopped

Randy Kratofil was driving through Jefferson Hills, Pennsylvania when he came to a stop sign at an intersection. After coming to a complete stop, Mr. Kratofil continued through the intersection – but he didn’t make it very far. As KDKA CBS Pittsburgh reports, the Clairton, Pennsylvania resident was pulled over by Jefferson Hills Police officers. They told him he was being given a ticket for not stopping. This shocked Mr. Kratofil, but fortunately, he happened to have evidence that would refute the police officers’ claims.

Mr. Kratofil happened to have a dashboard camera recording as he was driving through Jefferson Hills. In the video, you can see that he comes to a complete stop. KDKA even brought the video to driving instructor Jim Clair, who confirmed that Mr. Kratofil hadn't rolled through the intersection.

When the station brought the video to Jefferson Hills Police Chief Gene Roach, he viewed it and decided to ask the police officer responsible for writing the ticket to withdraw it. However, KDKA notes that Chief Roach did defend his officers. “He defends his officers, saying technically…the law says you stop at the stop sign, you move forward, stop again, until you can see that the intersection is clear and then you go.”

Michigan man accused of trying to toss drug-packed football into prison

Someone from Ohio will make a comment about this incident. The same thing happened at an Ohio prison and the ball sailed over the wall and was caught by prisoner Bronco Dante.

(Reuters) - A Michigan man faces felony charges for allegedly trying to hurl a football stuffed with heroin and cell phones into a state prison yard, a corrections department spokesman said on Tuesday.

The man hopped out of a vehicle on Sunday morning and heaved the football, which landed short, between two security fences at a state prison in Jackson, Michigan, about 75 miles (120 km) west of Detroit, prisons spokesman Russ Marlan said.

"From where he was throwing, it would not have been that difficult of a throw to throw it in ... but you don't know how heavy it was," Marlan said.

The football had been sliced open, stuffed with drugs, phones and chargers and stitched back together, Marlan said.

The man, identified as Christen Deon-Sterling Moore of Detroit by the Detroit Free Press, was charged with furnishing contraband and cell phones to prisoners.

A prison officer apprehended the would-be quarterback and the driver after seeing him toss the football and turned them over to Michigan State Police, Marlan said.

It was not clear who the intended receiver was, Marlan said.

2 Russian journalists killed in eastern Ukraine

Two Russian journalists for a Russian state-owned TV channel died Tuesday in eastern Ukraine after being hit by mortar fire, the Rossiya 24 network said.

Correspondent Igor Kornelyuk, 37, died during surgery in a hospital after being wounded while on assignment in Luhansk. The whereabouts of the sound engineer who was with him were unknown throughout the day, but in late evening the network announced that Anton Voloshin had been confirmed dead as well.

Russian officials expressed indignation over the deaths. Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said the Ukrainian government should be held responsible, while Russia's federal investigative agency announced the opening of a criminal case.

Viktor Denisov, a cameraman working with Kornelyuk, said in a television broadcast that they were filming Ukrainian refugees fleeing the area north of the regional capital when mortar fire began. Denisov was not next to Kornelyuk when he was wounded.

Clinton: 'Not prepared' to back working with Iran

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton expressed caution Tuesday about the United States working with Iran to combat fast-moving Islamic insurgents in Iraq, saying the U.S. needs to understand "what we're getting ourselves into."

The U.S. and Iran have held an initial discussion about how the longtime foes might cooperate to address the threat from the al-Qaida-linked militants that have swept through Iraq. Clinton said at a CNN town hall meeting that any partnerships with third parties such as Iran would need to be "carefully thought through."

"I am not prepared to say that we go in with Iran right now, until we have a better idea what we're getting ourselves into," said the former secretary of state

I know why, and now, you will also .....

Is there at least one ...... POLITICIAN ..... that you respect. I must admit none come to my mind. There is some quality that a person possesses, perhaps a flaw, that leads them down that path. Peeping Toms can't stay away from windows, pedophiles from parks, criminals, out of jail, and there is some innate, inborn flaw, in the genes of some people, that draws them to ........ politics.

L. Ron Hubbard, wrote Dianetics:
In Dianetics, the unconscious or reactive mind is described as a collection of "mental image pictures," which contain the recorded experience of past moments of unconsciousness, including all sensory perceptions and feelings involved, ranging from pre-natal experiences, infancy and childhood, even the traumatic feelings associated events from past lives and alien cultures. The type of mental image picture created during a period of unconsciousness involves the exact recording of a painful experience. Hubbard called this phenomenon an engram, and defined it as "a complete recording of a moment of unconsciousness containing physical pain or painful emotion and all perceptions."

The  politician is not aware of these engrams. At sometime, unaware as they are, they have acquired an engram ... they have heard ... "It's not mine, spend it."

So, as a politician, faced with a decision to make, his unconscious kicks in, and he spends. 

True story. I knew a girl, in Reno, 21 dealer, had bad eyesight, big thick glasses, some problems seeing cards, which is not a good thing dealing 21. She sought help from a therapist in Reno, who was working with Hubbard's theory. She went through the "regressive" therapy. In her childhood, she had hit a tree on her bike, nothing serious, but very bloody. Her Mother was elbowing her way through an assembled crowd, some were saying, "Don't look, don't look, she is not hurt, don't look, let us clean her up, don't look, yet."

The girl, my friend, was semi conscious and heard those remarks ..... under therapy, that "engram" .... don't look, was revealed to her conscious mind, her eyesight improved, she quit wearing glasses. She made me a believer.

Something happened in the life of a politician to implant that engram, "spend it" in their mind, and they do. There are other words that become engrams that linger in their unconscious also, the list would be too long. Just work backwards from one of their actions, and you will know what it was. And now, you know why. Unfortunately, some of them are still "unconscious" and they are loaded with engrams. Perhaps therapy should be a "must" before entering politics.

Spend some time, take just one politician's actions, then, imagine what happened in their youth to plant that engram there .................. "Oh, I see!"

...and they said it never strikes twice ...........

L. Ron Hubbard

In reply to a couple of inquiries.
I met him, probably late 50's. He gave a brief talk to a group of locals in Reno, Harold's Club, 7th Floor. There was a Dianetician in Reno who had studied in Maryland, Baltimore, I think, and was using Dianetics in his practice.
He had quite a group in Reno studying Dianetics. I was one.
Hubbard was a very impressive man, very charismatic, and you got under his spell when you heard him speak. I was very impressed with him.
I remember some of his history from his talk, and they conflict a bit from what is published about him.
I know nothing much about Scientology, it was in its infancy in those days, and most of his concern was about Dianetics.
I knew, personally, some people who were greatly changed, and/or healed, through Dianetics. To this day, I use some of his philosophies from the book.
