Survival Gear Review: Streamlight TLR-3

Shared from Zite   What It Is The  Streamlight TLR-3  is the most diminutive of the  Streamlight Tactical Gun Mount series  of weapon-mounted  lights.  Streamlight has made a serious name for itself in the illumination market, perhaps even coming close to dominating the weapon light market.  Their product offerings for weapon-mounted lights range from the  TLR-1 HL  with a turn-bread-into-toast-at-25-paces 630 lumen output all the way down to the tiny TLR-3 and  TLR-4  (which looks to be a TLR-3 with a red or green laser incorporated into it.).

8 ways the Obama administration is blocking information | THE DEFINITIVE SOURCE

Shared from Zite   Here is Buzbee's list of eight ways the Obama administration is making it hard for journalists to find information and cover the news: 1) As the United States ramps up its fight against Islamic militants, the public can't see any of it.

At Women’s Event, Biden Praises Ex-Senator Ousted For Abusing Women

Shared from Zite   "It's Republicans who were involved, guys like [Sen.] Mac Mathias [R-Md.] and [Sen. Bob] Packwood [R-Oregon] and so many others," Biden said, looking back fondly on GOP lawmakers who were once willing to work with Democrats on issues like the minimum wage.  Packwood resigned from the Senate in 1995 after the Senate Ethics Committee voted unanimously to expel him for sexual and official misconduct. A Los Angeles Times story on his resignation noted that the committee released more than 10,000 pages of documents that showed a "pattern of abuse of his position of power and authority as United States Senator." The article also said the documents included "many explicit" allegations and that 19 women had accused Packwood of misconduct.
