I Felt A Great Disturbance In The Narrative
Robert Abell, a co-owner of Lotus Gunworks in Jensen Beach, Florida, told ABC News today that a man entered the store five or six weeks ago and asked specific questions about high-end body armor. When employees said the store didn’t carry the body armor he wanted, Abell said, the man made a phone call in a foreign language, hung up and then asked about ammunition in bulk.
He was probably calling NRA head office.

About that DNC crack
The water is muddied.
Crowdstrike stands by it’s assessment and attributes ‘Guccifer 2.0’ to a disinformation campaign.
If you’re interested, Guccifer 2.0’s post. Don’t download any of the documents on that site, just look at the sample images. They are MS Office files and may contain macro viruses.

Passwords
Do you have an account on one of VerticalScope’s domains? You may want to change your passwords.
Another 45M username/passwords leaked from 1000 web forums.
This happened before LinkedIn was breached and before the TeamViewer hack/breach.
From the story, this link to Leaked Source. It asks you to enter your email, usernames or other identifying data into the search field and checks if it is in their database of cracks. If it is, that account has probably been compromised depending on the type of encryption used in the sites database.
Don’t use the same password on different sites, try not to use the same username. Personally, I use Firefox’s browser password manager with the master password feature turned on and I have set Firefox to delete cookies when it shuts down. That way I only have to remember the master password and the rest are encrypted. Chrome and Explorer do not encrypt their remembered passwords, so anyone with access to the filesystem can see them.

In total, the documents tabled in the House of Commons show the government made 51 requests to Google between November 4, 2015 and March 3, 2016 to remove the government record of Harper’s time in office from its search results.

Yesterday, I noted that the FBI had questioned the mass murderer (MM) in 2013, based on his claims that he knew terrorists. The FBI concluded that his claims could not be substantiated. But then in 2014 they discovered that MM actually had contact with a terrorist who engaged in a suicide bombing. The 2014 event confirmed that MM knew terrorists.
What did the FBI do? They closed the investigation.

Riding Mass Transit Is Like Inviting 20 Random Hitchhikers Into Your Car
Good Samaritan assaulted on SkyTrain.
On June 9, a man noticed three men in their 20s board the train at Sperling and call out to a female passenger that they were going to follow her home.
One of the men “made jokes to his two friends about raping her. The first man stood up and sat down near this suspect, telling him to leave the woman alone,” said a Transit Police news release. “Suspect 1 became aggressive, swearing at the man and threatening to follow him off the train.”

Leaders in the Baltic countries and Poland fear the force NATO plans to deploy on their territory is too small and symbolic to deter an attack by Russia, whose 2014 annexation of Crimea is fresh in the memories of the former Soviet-bloc states.
