California has seen its share of insane behaviour and of bears breaking into cars (but usually only to steal picnic baskets, Boo Boo.) But the bears recently caught on camera entering luxury cars tipped off insurers that something wasn’t quite right.
In what has been dubbed “Operation Bear Claw,” the California Insurance Department said four Los Angeles residents were arrested on Wednesday (13 November 2024), ad charged with of defrauding insurance companies out of nearly $142,000 by claiming a bear had caused damage to their luxury vehicles.
The trio are accused of providing video recodings shot in the San Bernardino Mountains in January of a “bear” busy tearing apart the insides of a Rolls-Royce and two Mercedes to the insurance companies as part of their damage claims, the department said. Photos provided by the insurance department show what appeared to be scratches on the seats and doors.
On viewing video of the Rolls-Royce, an assessor for one of the insurance companies suspected that he was looking not at a mischievous bear, but a human in a fancy dress shop bear costume.
A biologist from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, sent by the state Insurance Department to review the three videos, concluded it was “clearly a human in a bear suit,” the insurance department said.
After executing a search warrant, detectives found the bear costume in the main suspects’ home, the department said.

Mind Control: How It Works and how The Elite Use It
Mind control, the ability of science to deliver a completely compliant and uncomplaining population. It had been the goal of tyrants for over a hundred years, just as the abilty to comtrol human minds and turn us into humandroids has been the goal of mad scientists. But is such scientific advance getting uncomfortably close to reality? The idea of a scientific dictatorship able to subjugate individuality was born over a century ago by insane scientists and control freaks who saw human qualities like empathy and compassion as an obstriction to scientific progress. welcome to Dystoipia.

Civilisation Isn't Over 'Til The Bearded Lady Sings
Freak shows went out of fashion in the 1950s and rightly so in my not so humble opinion. Two headed dogs, a man with goat hooves, people who swallowed live animals (geeks) and bearded ladies were not anybody's idea of sophisticated entertainment. That being the case, why do Europe's media luvvies who think they are oh so sophisticated persist with the annual freak show that is the Eurovision song Contest?
Labour, the (very rich, elitist) People's party plans to ban your beer and pies
Are Labour still the peoples party or have they forgotten their core voters and working class roots and sold out to the metrpolitan left-wing intellectual media mafia. After the latest P R faux pas, few voters over 40 will be able to asociate the people's party with cloth caps and ciggies. Ed Miliband's proposed crackdown on tobbacco, alcohol and 'unhealthy eating' could well be the policy that loses the election.

Technowanks for technowankers with Google Glass?
Almost every day we are reporting the latest 'breaktrhough in dehumanisation and a further step towards making us all slaves to technology.

Mr. Hollande's Soap Opera
The bedroom antics of France's latest President would have brought down the government in most nations, particularly those tending to the protestant version of Christianity. So why has the exposure of a love affair betwen France's Francoise Hollande and a beautiful actress much younger than himself caused so little difficulty for the distinctly uncharismatic M. Hollande?

Scientists Prove Science Is For The Terminally Insane
