U.K. POLICE RECAPTURE ESCAPED TERRORISM SUSPECT

LONDON — A terrorism suspect whose sensational escape from a London prison launched a four-day nationwide manhunt was found and arrested, the Metropolitan Police said.

Daniel Abed Khalife, the most wanted man in Britain, was arrested just before 11 a.m. on Saturday in an area of west London.

The details seemed like something out of a prison break film. Khalife, 21, a former British soldier, was in jail awaiting trial on charges of breaking the Official Secrets Act and terrorism-related offenses. He slipped out of London’s Wandsworth prison early Wednesday morning. Police said they believed he escaped by clinging to the bottom of a food delivery van. more at   MORE AT U.K. police recapture escaped prisoner after a nationwide manhunt (msn.com)

A TREMENDOUS VICTORY FOR FREE SPEECH

Censorship is not just an attack on the free speech rights of the speaker; it is a coordinated effort against you, the citizen, and your right to information. It aims to perpetuate power by silencing dissent and destroying opposition.

The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals reaffirmed this principle on Friday night when it ruled that the White House, the FBI, and the CDC violated the First Amendment by encouraging and coercing social media companies to suppress free speech.

“The officials have engaged in a broad pressure campaign designed to coerce social-media companies into suppressing speakers, viewpoints, and content disfavored by the government,” a three-judge panel wrote in Missouri v. Biden. “The harms that radiate from such conduct extend far beyond just the Plaintiffs; it impacts every social-media user.”

The judges partly upheld a preliminary injunction from July.....MORE AT A Tremendous Victory for Free Speech  ⋆ Brownstone Institute

EXAMINER NEWS---EFFORTS UNDERWAY TO RESCUE CROTON MAN TRAPPED IN TURKISH CAVE

Efforts Underway to Rescue Croton Man Trapped in Turkish Cave--September 10, 2023Rick Pezzullo

A 40-year-old Croton-on-Hudson man remains trapped in a Turkish cave after experiencing life-threatening illnesses while assisting in an exploration.

Mark Dickey, a caving instructor and Chief of the New Jersey Initial Response Team (NJIRT), became sick Aug. 31 while 1,040 meters deep in the Morca cave in southern Turkey’s Taurus Mountains with a handful of others.

According to a release from the NJIRT, Dickey suffered intestinal problems that rapidly progressed into serious bleeding and vomiting. He was unable to get out under his own power and only experienced cavers are capable of reaching him to render aid.

The Morca cave is very deep, wet and cold and experienced cavers who know the cave take eight hours to reach the location where Dickey lies. The phone lines in the cave have become inoperable, so communication between the surface and Dickey’s location is extremely slow.

On Sept. 5, doctors were able to reach Dickey with fresh blood and fluids to replace some of what he lost and his condition was reported to be slightly improved. However, he was still unable to move on his own.

It is reported that rescuers from Turkey, Italy and Croatia, as well as others in Europe and the United States were responding to assist with the rescue. However, the location is very remote and the local water resources are limited. The Turkish military has stepped in to coordinate and to supplement the local resources.

THE NYS HAND SANITIZER DEBACLE---YOU PAID FOR IT---NEWS 6

Welcome to The New Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

I'm sure that some of you can remember the online demands of a few community members for the government to provide free sanitizer to everyone......and how anyone who brought up the issues outlined below was instantly vilified.    Still no apologies---or accountability.....

THE HAND SANITIZER DEBACLE---YOU PAID FOR IT---NEWS 6

You can have too much of a good thing, and sometimes it can cost you too much. Such is the tale of NYS Clean hand sanitizer.  New York state spent $4 million making way too much of it, and now it's spending millions to get rid of it. This process has taken a year and it's still far from over.   We're keeping track, because you paid for it.   MORE AT You Paid For It: New York State's $6.62 million hand sanitizer mistake | WRGB (cbs6albany.com)
