Sniper Basics
Source: SHTFplan.com
During the Finnish "Winter War" against the Soviet Union in which they were vastly outnumbered and outgunned, guerrilla tactics, which they called "Motti tactics", were used to excellent effect. The Finnish devastated the Soviets using hit and run attacks, homemade and improvised weapons, and snipers. The most famous of these snipers was Simo Hayha.
Simo was a common farmer with a diminutive stature of only 5 feet 3 inches tall. His shooting prowess was honed as a hunter in the wilderness of Finland. Simo is credited with over 505 (official) kills, including several teams of Soviet counter-snipers sent specifically to eliminate him. These kills were made during less than 100 days of combat, meaning Hayha engaged and destroyed 5 targets per day by himself. Known as the "White Death", Simo would finally be removed from the battlefield by a lucky shot from an explosive tipped rifle round to the face while holding off a Soviet advance; he would wake up later in a Finnish hospital at the very end of the war and die of old age in the year 2002.
Simo Hayha proved once and for all the effectiveness of a single shooter in the face of a more powerful opponent. This kind of attrition warfare stopped the more technologically advanced Russians in their tracks, and ended their pursuit of total invasion. The poorly armed Finish prevailed despite all odds.

US Farmers Abandoning GMO Seeds: "Non-GMO Crops more Productive and Profitable"
Source: GlobalResearch.ca
A growing number of farmers are abandoning genetically modified seeds, but it's not because they are ideologically opposed to the industry.
Simply put, they say non-GMO crops are more productive and profitable.
Modern Farmer magazine discovered that there is a movement among farmers abandoning genetically modified organisms (GMO) because of simple economics.
"We get the same or better yields, and we save money up front," crop consultant and farmer Aaron Bloom said of non-GMO seeds. Bloom has been experimenting with non-GMO seeds for five years and he has discovered that non-GMO is more profitable.
The re-converts to non-GMO seeds are not hippies but conservative Midwestern farmers who are making a business decision, Modern Farmer discovered. They are switching back to natural seed because it is more profitable — not because of any ideology.
"Five years ago the [GMO seeds] worked," said farmer Christ Huegerich, who along with his father planted GMO seeds. "I didn't have corn rootworm because of the Bt gene, and I used less pesticide. Now, the worms are adjusting, and the weeds are resistant. Mother Nature adapts."

US Media Blacks Out New Snowden Interview (Video)
Source: BennSwann.com
This past Sunday eveningformer NSA contractor Edward Snowden sat down for an interview with German television network ARD. The interview has been intentionally blocked from the US public, with virtually no major broadcast news outlets covering this story. In addition, the video has been taken down almost immediately every time it's posted on YouTube.
In contrast, this was treated as a major political event in both print and broadcast media, in Germany, and across much of the world. In the interview, Mr. Snowden lays out a succinct case as to how these domestic surveillance programs undermines and erodes human rights and democratic freedom.
He states that his "breaking point" was "seeing Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, directly lie under oath to Congress" denying the existence of a domestic spying programs while under questioning in March of last year. Mr. Snowden goes on to state that, "The public had a right to know about these programs. The public had a right to know that which the government is doing in its name, and that which the government is doing against the public."

Nullification Movement Grows As States Challenge Federal Power
Source: LibertyCrier.com
Multiple states, including Washington, Arizona, New Hampshire and Tennessee, have introduced legislation that bar state workers from cooperating with the National Security Administration's domestic spy program. Some bills, such as HB1533 in New Hampshire, even make it a Class-A misdemeanor if state employees are caught violating the proposed law.
In other states, such as Montana and Missouri, nullification bills have either been passed or introduced that refuse to recognize gun-control requirements made by the federal government. In 2009, Montana passed the Firearms Freedom Act, which prohibited federal regulations of guns manufactured within the state's borders. A federal appeals court struck down the act in August, citing the commerce clause.
A host of states are challenging President Obama's signature legislative achievement, the Affordable Care Act. Indiana just introduced HB1406, which resists the enforcement of ACA guidelines. The Hoosier State joins South Carolina, Oklahomaand Georgia in doing so.

The NY Times Doesn't Like Me (Highly Recommended)
Source: LewRockwell.com
The New York Times, whistling past the financial graveyard, paused over the weekend to smear the Mises Institute, Ron Paul, our other scholars, hardcore libertarianism, and me. Why? Because our ideas and our youth movement are gaining real traction. It is in effect a compliment. They have never faced opposition like ours before, and Ron Paul's tremendous resonance with young people has only made things worse from the Times's point of view.
The Times wants opponents who play the game, who accept the presuppositions of the regime, and who are willing to confine themselves to the narrow range of debate to which the Times would prefer to confine the American people.
The purpose of articles like the one over the weekend, it should be unnecessary to point out, is not to shed light. It is to demonize and destroy a school of thought that the regime considers threatening.

MSNBC Cuts Away From Some Silly NSA Thing To Breaking Bieber News (Video)
Source: LibertyCrier.com
--Bieber fever swept through all the cable news networksThursday morning afflicting all who came in contact. In one particularly egregious case, MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell was in the middle of an interview with Congresswoman Jane Harman discussing the latest news developments on the government's NSA program — particularly, that the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board had found the surveillance program illegal.

Whistleblower: Google Chrome Can Listen To Your Conversations (w/ Video)
Source: Infowars.com
--As far back as 2006, we warned that computers would use in-built microphones to spy on users. We also revealed how digital cable boxes had embedded microphones that had the capability of recording conversations since the late 1990′s.
As we have previously highlighted, terms of agreement for both Android and iPhone apps now require users to agree to allow their microphone to be activated at any time without confirmation before they can download the app.
Facebook's term's of agreement also allow the social network giant to record your phone calls, read your phone's call log and "read data about contacts stored on your phone, including the frequency with which you've called, emailed or communicated in other ways with specific individuals."
We are now fully ensconced in a world that even George Orwell would have laughed off as inconceivable. Embedded microphones in everything from Xbox Kinect consoles to high-tech street lights that can record private conversations in real time represent the final nail in the coffin of privacy.

COMMENT: Hopefully somebody will verify that this "whistleblower video" is legit.
It sure would be irritating if this was a hoax aimed at discrediting "concerns" about this type of technology.
