The Chinese Are Becoming Very Good At Stealing U.S. Military Secrets
*Next Big Future*:* US Congressional report warns that China is getting even better at stealing US military technology and secrets* US intelligence agencies determined that several years ago China stole secrets relating to the F-35 jet fighter from a US contractor. The design secrets were detected in China’s new J-20 stealth fighter and the J-31. The stolen secrets included details of the F-35’s electro-optical targeting system, radar-absorbing coatings and engine nozzles. Taiwan remains a major spying target of China and, since 2002, 56 Chinese agents have been arrested there aft... more »

Bill Gates: Trump Will Be Assassinated “Like JFK”
Microsoft billionaire Bill Gates has hinted that President-elect Donald Trump may suffer the same fate as JFK, in an interview with CNBC on Tuesday. Gates compared Trump to JFK on Squawk Box, saying that Trump has an opportunity to establish “American leadership through innovation.” While he didn’t outright say Trump would suffer the same fate as the late President, his decision to compare him to a man who is most famous for being assassinated is rather odd. CNBC.com reports: “But in the same way President Kennedy talked about the space mission and got the country behind that,” G... more »

Residents of New York City reported seeing a military Doomsday Plane flying close to the Trump Towers late Tuesday afternoon. According to multiple reports on Twitter, either a Boeing E-4B (Doomsday Plane) or a C-130 (military plane) were spotted and filmed circling the air around midtown for over an hour before leaving the airspace.

Regardless of whether the plane was indeed a E-4B or a C-130 – a... more »

"A Look to the Heavens"
“What will become of these galaxies? Spiral galaxies NGC 5426 and NGC 5427 are passing dangerously close to each other, but each is likely to survive this collision. Typically when galaxies collide, a large galaxy eats a much smaller galaxy. In this case, however, the two galaxies are quite similar, each being a sprawling spiral with expansive arms and a compact core. As the galaxies advance over the next tens of millions of years, their component stars are unlikely to collide, although new stars will form in the bunching of gas caused by gravitational tides. *Click image for larger... more »

"We Like To Think..."
"We like to think that we are rational beings; humane, conscientious, civilized, thoughtful. But when things fall apart, even just a little, it becomes clear we are not better than animals. We have opposable thumbs, we think, we walk erect, we speak, we dream, but deep down we are still routing around in the primordial ooze; biting, clawing, scratching out an existence in the cold, dark world like the rest of the tree-toads and sloths." - "Grey's Anatomy"

Sundance Excerpt
Below you will find a passage from Walter McClintock’s book *The Old North Trail*. It describes a portion of the ceremony performed on the first day of the Sundance. Note how it honors many of the other animals that inhabited the ecosystem. The ceremony was born in an era prior to the settler’s war on wildlife, and before the arrival of the cult of human supremacy. The relationship of the Blackfeet to the other animals was one of profound reverence, respect, and adoration. McClintock presents us with a magnificent example of a culture that was nearly the opposite of ours. ... more »
For a different view, the blogger adds a man by the name of Craig Murray who stated that he "had a call from a Guardian journalist" the afternoon of Dec 10 (or thereabout). He went on: "The astonishing result was that for three hours, an article was accessible through the Guardian front page which actually included the truth among the CIA hype: "The Kremlin has rejected the hacking accusations, while the WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has previously said the DNC leaks were not linked to Russia. A second senior official cited by the Washington Post conceded that intelligence agencies did not have specific proof that the Kremlin was “directing” the hackers, who were said to be one step removed from the Russian government." "Craig Murray, the former UK ambassador to Uzbekistan, who is a close associate of Assange, called the CIA claims 'bullshit', adding: 'They are absolutely making it up.'” “I know who leaked them,” Murray said. “I’ve met the person who leaked them, and they are certainly not Russian and it’s an insider. It’s a leak, not a hack; the two are different things." “If what the CIA are saying is true, and the CIA’s statement refers to people who are known to be linked to the Russian state, they would have arrested someone if it was someone inside the United States." “America has not been shy about arresting whistleblowers and it’s not been shy about extraditing hackers." "They plainly have no knowledge whatsoever.”

The Monica Garcia - Betsy DeVos connection
*“Monica Garcia believes in… choice… She expanded charter schools” — Michael R. Bloomberg and A.

On the other hand, right-wing extremists like Campbell Brown seemingly can't contain their joy over the arch-reactionary appointment. Ultimately DeVos's scho... more »

But today, we’ll look at another Olympian money man- the chairman of Trump’s new Strategic and Policy Forum and private equity magnate, Stephen Schwarzman. *Bubble fina... more »
The Reality…Breaking the silence per Biased BBC (part 2)
Here's a second quotation from this biasedbbc.org article http://biasedbbc.org/blog/2016/12/13/the-reality-breaking-the-silence/ 'My father was indoctrinated with this ideology in the early 1980s…Dad would say 'you kids don't know nothing – Islam will take over, there will be mosques everywhere, you must think of your after-life – not this life. Kaffirs will burn in the fire of hell.' His words would frighten me, and I had no reason to doubt his words of wisdom as he was reading the Quran and attending mosques where pious religious mullahs gave sermons about the Quran. He was beco... more »
The Reality…Breaking the silence per Biased BBC (part 1)
This biasedbbc.org article http://biasedbbc.org/blog/2016/12/13/the-reality-breaking-the-silence/ both saddens and angers me. Here's the first quote for you to mull over: 'I left because there was no way I was going to raise my children as a lone mother in a community where the Imams or mosques did nothing to serve the community or teach a plural Islam. Even the schools were allowing little primary school girls to wear headscarves, and that has nothing to do with religion. The extremists have had over twenty five uncontested years to mobilise the minds of British Muslims and their... more »
Qatar abolishes controversial 'kafala' labour system per BBC News
Reading this short BBC report http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-38298393 on the system of kafala in Qatar I was struck by the lack of anger in it, the lack of moralising about the evils of slavery. After all the USA is still demonised by parts of the BBC as having operated a system of slavery. Then I wondered how different the BBC would be if it was Israel that operated a system of slavery now. Then I realised that when you're an organisation that is institutionally anti Israel and pro Islam why would anyone expect you to be unbiased in your reporting.
One People Dec 12: Antarctica, CERN, and Energetic Waves
Last nights One People Round Table Discussion was a pretty damn interesting one! We started off in Antarctica, bounced to the North Pole, back to the South Pole, and then spread out from there into discussions about this fuckin' construct of a reality, jumped from the energetic to the political to the energetic, to the galactic and finally dove head long into physics. Get your popcorn ready and have lots of coffee on hand!! love d Links and Videos discussed on last nights show: http://www.sciencealert.com/physicists-have-found-hints-of-a-rare-quantum-spin-liquid-hiding-in-... more »

This is Your Medical System on Government
Most certainly the voters had zero reason to have confidence in Hilary to fix it all. So they did a very rational thing. They elected Trump who has a long track record of fixing things. And as the crack up has only really begun to bite, the shift was still modest. Looking at the stories it is obvious that it simply cannot work. What ever is wrong is so wrong that no one is getting a fair deal and the individual can not fix it. Yet it is solvable by all other developed countries. How so? *This is Your Medical System on Government* * Jeffrey Tucker * * Wednesday, November ... more »
Corporate Giants' "Sustainable" Palm Oil Revealed as Sham
So long as we have pure poverty we will have outright exploitation. Fix that and this all goes away. In the meantime what is talked about here is that this is a world of production based earnings and that families do put kids to work as well. No real harm provided we are talking about a short harvest season. The harm arrives if these children are not otherwise getting an education. That remains unanswered in this piece of propaganda. I observed no end of canoes carrying school children to school in the most unlikely places in Indonesia. So while the economics deserve investi... more »
This New Cannabis Capsule is So Powerful That It Could Replace ALL Pain Killers
First, such a capsule is nicely targeted and does replace the opiate protocol. Second it is not addictive or if it is it is almost neutral at worst. Thus policy should immediately mandate a switch. This is obviously the future for the vast majority of pain relief and most certainly for chronic pain relief. The sooner the better. In the meantime the pharmaceutical industry, having no alternatives except opiates, have worked hard to embed their product even in the face of rapidly rising addiction problems and a serious death rate. *This New Cannabis Capsule is So Powerful That I... more »
Pineapple Juice Found To Be 500% More Effective Than Cough Syrup
What appears to make this effective is that it dissolves the mucus. This then speeds up the whole process. Really a good idea. I am reminded every once in a while that pineapple is a friend and get to say so again. The extras are nice enough but the juice alone is the most important part so do not fuss too much and go get a pineapple to juice... . *Pineapple Juice Found To Be 500% More Effective Than Cough Syrup* *With winter on our doorstep, many of us end up with a nasty cold or cough. * *http://humansarefree.com/2016/11/pineapple-juice-found-to-be-500-more.html#more* *While ... more »
Operation Darkroom - the mainstream media event - you've heard nothing about
Allegedly, this shocking paedo-ring news item from Norway is being TOTALLY IGNORED by the six mainstream media companies who own and coordinate the public face of the Global News Networks around the world. *The year-long (Norwegian police) investigation named “Operation Darkroom,” has so far resulted in the seizure of 150 terabytes of child porn involving young children and babies, with top politicians, lawyers and authorities implicated in the scandal. *[source YNW] I hope this is a fake-news item, and I've just been fished in by Teh Internezt o'Nonsense... otherwise, I'm an ang... more »

Emotional China
I'm having dinner with our fellow blogger LSP in Dallas tonight, in the hopes that our discussions can bring some closure and sanity to the present "crisis in China". These sorts of summit meetings are often ignored by the scions of the airwaves and it's not unlike two jets landing in Phoenix... *But will China listen to this high level advice?* Maybe not. That sort of inscrutable wisdom doesn't come cheap and the Chinese are notoriously tight fisted. (Shameless plug for "Consulting Services") Irrespective of Chinese attention, steaks will be consumed with a possible doggy bag for... more »
Vivid dreaming - intense emotional material - phone numbers
a colleague at work intimated to me that (they were tired because) they'd been having really intense dreams lately. I concurred with this, "Me too," I said. Just the last few days? Yes. Maybe it's an Electric Universe thing, where intensified electromagnetic forces drive our heightened consciousness, or something. Maybe the Earth is in for a pole shift. Maybe it's the pixies, pickling our pineals... Anyway, yes emotionally intense dream content, vivid, lifelike, electrically charged, actually based in the Dreaming Room in some occassions, have been the order of the last few night... more »

Another Trumpfest *sigh*
*A duck enclosure. The white ones are farmed. They don't fly away because they are too fat -- ducks are like dogs, we were told, they eat and eat. The black ones are wild visitors living the easy life.* So much headache this week. I think I'm going to invest all my retirement funds in tranquilizers, since everyone in DC must be taking them by the handful now... Yeah, hopefully Trump will start trolling on another topic, so I don't have to write any more posts like this and can go back to writing on domestic events.

Education & The Election
There is plenty of analysis on why Trump narrowly won the crucial states that gave him an electoral college victory—Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan—even though Clinton won the popular vote by more than 2.5 million votes. But what was particularly striking was how, even if we control for race and income, educational levels best predict how people voted in the election. Of course this was expected, but I was shocked by how much a difference education made in terms of voter preference. http://ieet.org/archive/donald-trump-1818953_960_720.png

Syrian army liberates Aleppo
*Off-topic, business:* Pilsner Urquell, the beermaker in my hometown that gave the name to 90% of the world's beer, was sold by SABmiller to Asahi, a Japanese beer company, for $7.8 billion, along with four less well-known post-communist European breweries. Because of anti-monopoly legislation, SABMiller+Anheuser Busch was forced to sell *some* breweries. The City of Pilsen, descendants of the old 19th century owners, and some Czech billionaires were among the prospective buyers. The Battle of Aleppo is finally over. It lasted for more than four years – since July 2012. It's a ver... more »

Rump May Make Russia Great Again
By Manifesto Joe Each day seems to bring new confusion. I've never been a fan of the CIA. As an organization, it doesn't appear to understand the simple concept of "blowback," instead embracing myopic "U.S. interests" that see ahead as far as about a couple of days rather than a couple of decades. The 1953 overthrow of a democratic government in Iran is an example. Wow, and now so many folks there hate us? Who could imagine? But to have a "president-elect" pick a fight with them before even taking office? Not smart. Resident-elect Donald J. Rump took time from his busy schedule of ... more »

"A Look to the Heavens"
“Sometimes galaxies form groups. For example, our own Milky Way Galaxy is part of the Local Group of Galaxies. Small, compact groups, like Hickson Compact Group 87 (HCG 87) shown above, are interesting partly because they slowly self-destruct. Indeed, the galaxies of HCG 87 are gravitationally stretching each other during their 100-million year orbits around a common center. The pulling creates colliding gas that causes bright bursts of star formation and feeds matter into their active galaxy centers. * Click image for larger size.* HCG 87 is composed of a large edge-on spiral galaxy ... more »
"I Pity You..."
"Said a philosopher to a street sweeper, “I pity you. Yours is a hard and dirty task.” And the street sweeper said, “Thank you, sir. But tell me, what is your task?” And the philosopher answered saying, “I study man's mind, his deeds and his desires.” Then the street sweeper went on with his sweeping and said with a smile, “I pity you too.” - Kahlil Gibran
"Attitude..."
“Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.” - Kahlil Gibran
Ever Get Caught Up In A Revolution? Guest Post From Eden Unger Bowditch
*Cairo, revolution* I met Eden Unger because I used to do a alt-metal rock show on KUSF in San Francisco and she was in an all girl hard core band, Rude Girl. Great band! Eventually, Sandy Pearlman (Blue Oyster Cult, Black Sabbath, The Clash) was going to produce their debut album for my record label and CBS, which had bought my company, was going to release it. But it never happened and I can't remember what exactly why or what transpired next. I remember Eden being a metal sculptor working with a blow torch and then the next thing I knew decades had passed, she was an author with ... more »

Hillary Furious After Wisconsin Recount Increases Her Loss
Hillary Clinton lost Wisconsin by over 22,000 votes as the finalised recount total on Monday reaffirmed Donald Trump’s victory in the state. Hillary Clinton is reported to be “furious” after Donald Trump picked up an extra 162 votes following Jill Stein’s $3.5 million push to recount ballots in the state. Despite arguments from Green Party candidate Jill Stein that voting machines in Wisconsin were susceptible to hacking, the recount results prove, once and for all, that Russia did not hack the election – Hillary simply lost.
