By Eugene Nielsen Posted in #History One of the most improbable alliances in World War II history was a covert partnership between the United States government and organized crime. Known as Operation Underworld, this clandestine initiative was born out of wartime desperation.

These figures, once hunted by law enforcement, were now enlisted to safeguard ports, suppress labor unrest, and gather intelligence. What began as a tactical…

The U.S. Transportation Security Administration is attempting to “clarify” their rules regarding traveling with ice and other frozen liquids after an airport passenger apparently froze a knife in ice. In a social media post over the weekend, TSA officials said the discovery was made by officers at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Austin, Texas. “We would like to clarify that when we said if it’s frozen it can fly…we were specifically talking about liquids. Freezing your knife in ice is super awkward,” the post said. The headline is misleading. I was expecting to find the knife actually encased in ice –…
