clipper's remarks: I just saw a documentary on the eruption of Kracatoa, located in the South Pacific, in 1883. This eruption was the largest in human existence causing pyroclastic(large flowing mass of lava) tidal waves of 1000 degrees to neighboring islands and spawning a year long winter around the globe.

Fed Reserve counterfeits currency

Tue, 01 Jan 2008 19:35:51 GMT

clipper's remarks: The reserve actually causes inflation in the long run. With banks only storing, at most, 10% of your deposited money at any given time, in turn, the banks are allowed to keep reserves amounting to 10% of deposits at the Federal Reserve, the bank's bank. This means if your bank deposits 2 million dollars into the Central Bank, the reserve is an additional 18 million of money to be printed. Ten percent of 20 million is 2 million. Talk about major inflation. ALL BANKS are constantly having more and more money printed by the reserve.

According to GAAP, 2003 edition, page 41 under the section Cash and Cash Equivalents it states that “ANYTHING ACCEPTED BY A BANK FOR DEPOSIT WOULD BE CONSIDERED AS CASH”. This includes promissory notes, same as Federal Reserve Notes.

Money should be backed by real gold or silver, not created out of and backed by nothing. In this way it cannot be easily counterfeited. Our Forefathers fought to protect us from this exact same evil, and outlined it in the U.S. Constitution - Article 1, Section 10, Clause 1: No state shall enter any Treaty, Alliance or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts...

Operation Shamrock: NSA’s First Domestic Spying Program Was Revealed by Congress in 1975

During the Vietnam War, the NSA used data from Shamrock to compile a watch-list (code-named “Minaret”) of Nixon’s political enemies, including Martin Luther King, Jane Fonda, folksinger Joan Baez and Dr. Benjamin Spock, along with 75,000 other Americans.

Operation Shamrock came to light in 1975 during investigations by the U.S. Senate into government intelligence abuses in the Nixon Administration. The committee, chaired by Sen. Frank Church (D-Idaho), learned that three telegraph companies had turned over all their overseas communications traffic, both outbound and inbound, to the National Security Agency (NSA) on a daily basis for 30 years.

Genetically Modified Crops in the United States

Tue, 03 Jul 2007 20:19:13 GMT

clipped by: delete101
clipper's remarks: Many countries outside the U.S. are vehemently opposed to genetically engineered crops on their shelves because the health risks of such are yet to be determined. Basically, officials in Japan and Britain, for instance, are using the U.S. public as guinea pigs for at least ten years to see what the major health risks are. The countries outside the U.S. that do have genetically modified foods are labeled accordingly, unlike the U.S.

Genetically Modified Crops in the United States

The United States is the World Leader in Production of Biotechnology Crops

The United States accounts for nearly two-thirds of all biotechnology crops planted globally.

U.S. Farmers Continue to Increase GM Crop

Other GM crops currently grown in the U.S. include canola, squash and papaya. An estimated 54 percent of all canola grown in the U.S. in 2001 was genetically modified, according to industry estimates. While more than 50 percent of papayas grown in the U.S. (all in Hawaii) are GM, other commercially available GM crops, such as sugar beets, potatoes, and sweet corn, have yet to be widely adopted by farmers.

In the United States the three main GM crops under cultivation are varieties of corn, soybeans, and cotton.

imperialism

clipped by: delete101
clipper's remarks: Strangely, the U.S. reign over the oil rich Middle East country of Iraq fits the definition of imperialism. Our alliance with Britain in the status quo seems natural considering Britain's imperialistic past. The U.S. made a "pre-emptive" strike on Iraq without finding Weapons of Mass Destruction so what is the purpose for such measures if the original reason turned out to be false? You be the judge.

Aum Shinrikyo

Aum Shinrikyo, now known as Aleph, is a Japanese religious group founded by Shoko Asahara. The group gained international notoriety in 1995, when several of its followers carried out a Sarin gas attack in the Tokyo subways.

1995 Tokyo sarin gas attacks and related incidents

On the morning of 20th March 1995, Aum members released sarin in a co-ordinated attack on five trains in the Tokyo subway system, killing 12 commuters, seriously harming 54 and affecting 980 more. Prosecutors allege that Asahara was tipped off about planned police raids on cult facilities by an insider, and ordered an attack in central Tokyo to divert attention away from the group.

Internet Radio Equality Act

Internet Radio Equality Act would overturn decision on webcasting fees

The Copyright Royalty Board recently raised rates on Internet webcasters, who will soon face greatly-increased fees for streaming music on their stations. The issue affected not just Internet broadcasters but noncommercial groups like NPR, and the broadcasters filed an appeal of the decision earlier this month, but were denied.

Inslee's bill, the Internet Radio Equality Act, would toss out the Board's decision and return the webcasting industry to a percentage-of-revenue model. In this case, the percentage would be set at the same rate paid by satellite radio, which is 7.5 percent.

The bill is a huge victory for groups like the SaveNetRadio coalition. Jake Ward of SaveNetRadio called the new bill a "critical step to preserve this vibrant and growing medium, and to develop a truly level playing field where webcasters can compete with satellite radio."

Media bias and Israeli spin-doctoring

clipped by: delete101
clipper's remarks: Israel has a elaborate media filter structure to cast the country and it's "occupation" in a favorable light around the world. These filters include Owners of media outlets(who conform to the political elite), the political elite, a PR ministry dedicated primarily to western influence(plus allied with the most influencial American PR firms, and finally and last line of media filtering are watchdog groups such as CAMERA. Israel will always be cast as "defenders" or "retaliating" on US airwaves although they are OCCUPYING foreign land. Also, the influx of Jewish "settlements" on occupied territory will alway be mentioned as "neighborhoods." I'm not Jewish or Arab, I just beleive the truth be told w/o spin. I loathe misinformation on our public airwaves.

This is what is happening right now in Palestine. Israel is using all of its powerful influence with the western media to pose as the innocent victim of a violent, vicious and untrustworthy people - the Palestinians - demonising and blaming them in order to justify the violence, ethnic cleansing and oppression used by the Israeli Army and the Settlers to maintain their illegal occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.

Israel finds easy acceptance in the western press for its propaganda. For decades the western media has drawn a picture of Arab culture and Islam that portrays the Arab people as fanatical terrorists who are intolerant and anti-democratic. This has skewed and influenced public opinion in America and Europe, culminating in a distortion of perception that has led western democracies, particularly the United States, to support, almost without question, Israel's conquest of Palestine and the subjugation of its people.

Epigenetics

Epigenetics

Epigenetics is a term in biology used today to refer to features of unicellular and multicellular organisms (eg. chromatin and DNA modifications) that are stable over rounds of cell division but do not involve changes in the underlying DNA sequence of the organism.^[1] These epigenetic changes play a role in the process of cellular differentiation, allowing cells to stably maintain different characteristics despite containing the same genomic material. Epigenetic features are inherited when cells divide despite a lack of change in the DNA sequence itself and, although most of these features are considered dynamic over the course of development in multicellular organisms, some epigenetic features show transgenerational inheritance and are inherited from one generation to the next.^[2]

IBM's technology automated the Holocaust

clipper's remarks: When the U.S. gov. outlawed American companies from doing business with the Third Reich, IBM's Swiss office became the nexus, providing the New York office with all the day to day business info. Corporations are considered a person by the context of the law, however, they lack any kind of morals and this is a prime example of company profit at the expense of price-less human life.

Recently, it has dawned on me why so many people in this world are against ruthless Capitalists. Similar atrocities are still being committed day to day systematically destroying our civilization.

the coordination was so complex a task, this too called for a computer. But in 1933, no computer existed.

However, another invention did exist: the IBM punch card and card sorting system-a precursor to the computer. IBM, primarily through its German subsidiary, made Hitler's program of Jewish destruction a technologic mission the company pursued with chilling success.

People were moved from place to place, systematically worked to death, and their remains cataloged with icy automation.

IBM's subsidiary, with the knowledge of its New York headquarters, enthusiastically custom-designed the complex devices and specialized applications as an official corporate undertaking.

Punch cards could only be designed, printed, and purchased from one source: IBM. The machines were not sold, they were leased, and regularly maintained and upgraded by only one source: IBM.

Moreover, the fragile machines were serviced on site about once per month, even when that site was in or near a concentration camp.

Corporations Stiffing Government on Fines

clipper's remarks: Profit is the bottom line for every corporation. Damage to the enviroment and humans are secondary.

If companys would just pay to fix the areas of violation, I think it would equal the amount they rack up in fines yearly. But hey, they are not paying the fines or they renegotiate for a lower penalty, so know I know why they don't fix the areas that aren't up to stadards.

Corporations Stiffing Government on Fines

The amount of unpaid federal fines has risen sharply in the last decade. Individuals and corporations regularly avoid large, highly publicized penalties for wrongdoing — sometimes through negotiations, sometimes because companies go bankrupt, sometimes due to officials' failure to keep close track of who owes what under a decentralized collection system.

Internal documents from U.S. Customs show that dramatically large fines may be cut sharply.

A major factor in the high rate of uncollected fines and penalties was a change in the law.

The 1996 Victims Mandatory Restitution Act requires judges to order payments regardless of a defendant's ability to pay. It's no coincidence, says Natalie Collins, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's office in Las Vegas, Nev., that the uncollected debts have steeply increased since the law was passed.

Drinking cow's milk unnatural. Would you drink rats milk?

clipper's remarks: ANYTHING that is giving to the cow be it antibiotics, hormones, etc. is in the milk the cows excrete. Humans having a higher intake of antibiotics from cow's milk, for instance, have immune systems that are less resistant to disease because of this constant exposure. When someone in a hospital dies of a simple staff infection, their is call for alarm. DON'T DRINK MILK!!!

THE MILK LETTER : A MESSAGE TO MY PATIENTS

The latest high-tech onslaught on the poor cow is bovine growth hormone or BGH. This genetically engineered drug is supposed to stimulate milk production but, according to Monsanto, the hormone's manufacturer, does not affect the milk or meat.

One of the problems with adding molecules to a milk cows' body is that the molecules usually come out in the milk.

Any lactating mammal excretes toxins through her milk. This includes antibiotics, pesticides, chemicals and hormones. Also, all cows' milk contains blood! The inspectors are simply asked to keep it under certain limits.

I'm sorry to tell you that another way to describe white cells where they don't belong would be to call them pus cells.

Authorities test for only 4 of the 82 drugs in dairy cows.

It seems that cows are forever getting infections around the udder that require ointments and antibiotics.

If the cow has mastitis, there is pus in the milk.
