A couple of weeks ago, ITV accused the BBC of using licence-payers money to
rip off TV programmes from its commercially-funded rivals in an
“aggressive” pursuit of higher ratings in a submission to the Commons
Culture Media and Sport Committee:
The BBC’s pursuit of audience share regardless of distinctiveness or
innovation has been evident where the BBC has rushed to commission or
produce almost identical programmes to those by ITV, and then has scheduled
them against ITV’s planned transmissions.

the alien agenda
I have researched and studied the alien presence for 46 years. The early
contactees of the 50's such as adamski, van tassel, menger, and meier were
contacted by alien groups who were here to offer us help. Their offer was
rejected by our government and military because they denied our requests
for technology and required us to end war and destroy our atomic weapons.
Other alien groups were then quick to offer the enticement of technology in
exchange for certain privileges and a treaty emerged. In exchange for
technology they would be granted secrecy and be allowed to abduct people

The Order of DeMolay
"Founded by Frank S. Land, a Freemason, DeMolay is modeled after
Freemasonry. With the sponsorship of a Masonic body, a DeMolay chapter
often meets in a lodge room or, if not in a lodge room, in some other
appropriate room within the same building. Although none of the youth
groups are "masonic organizations" as such, DeMolay is considered to be
part of the general "family" of Masonic and associated organizations, along
with other youth groups such as Job's Daughters and Rainbow. As with
Rainbow, a family connection to Masonry is not a prerequisite for

Bank Of America Caught Frontrunning Clients ? Zero Hedge lays out its case as to why this appears to be the situation... And which other Banks are doing the same to achieve almost perfect trading quarters - quarter after quarter ( is the answer all of the big Banks ) ? Well , to sum up our free market capital system .. " So while HFTs frontrun all equity retail trades in open markets, major banks frontrun all institutional block equity orders in their own dark pools, we find out that bankers also just happen to frontrun clients in "you name it" over the counter product, where the only reason to be involved is to take advantage of the low margin - something JPM's CIO did quite aggressively and quite well until it blew up of course. " Don't even ask whether a single banker will go to jail for any of this........

Duncan’s Bizarro World, Where Lie Is Truth and Truth Is Lie
Superintendent of Montgomery County (MD) Joshua Starr is rightfully

underperformance and who worked closely with educators to bring about real

Whistleblower: Google Chrome Can Listen To Your Conversations ( and note Facebook might be doing the same thing as per the terms of the Facebook terms of agreement ) .... Wonder why Facebook and Google seem to be deploying espionage tools against their customers , why the proverbial trail of bread crumbs keeps coming back to the same major Tech Companies ? Ever wonder what else is used to track your moves , what you say in your home , what you type on your keyboard ? While we are aware of what some of the NSA programs are to spy on US Citizens are thanks to whistl-blowers like Edward Snowden , keep in mind many companies are spying every day on you without warrants and without restraints !

Once upon a time, the only CME margin hike releases the investing

Tinfoil Super Bowl Terror Alert - On a FWIW basis .....Several things to ponder ( looking at the CC's , was this sent out before the start of the playoffs ? ) President Obama and Governor Chris Chrisite would benefit from the obvious refocusing of American attention in the wake of a terror event...... False Flag events have happened in the past , have happened during GOP and Democrat Administrations and it has been quite the while since we have had a major terror event here in the US ......If one wanted to select an event which would capture world attention this year , the sporting events would be the Super Bowl , Sochi in russia or the World Cup in Brazil - only one event would change the subject for PTBs in the US .....With so many potential enemies to chose from ( Bad Al Qaeda , Taliban , Iranian supported terrorists ) , it would be easy to sell such an event to gullible sheeple......But let's hope we just see a football game on February 2 , 014.....

A Failed Economist
As Lorne over at Politics and Its Discontents noted yesterday, there has
been much gnashing of teeth as the Canadian dollar has slid down to 90
cents (U.S.) But Tom Walkom writes this morning that the dollar can and
should fall farther:
With luck, it will end back up at roughly 80 cents. Under the purchasing
power parity rule, which compares the prices charged for identical goods in
two countries, that’s about where it should be.
The rise of the dollar was predicated on the prime minister's ambition to
turn Canada into a petro state and himself into a blue eyed sheik. But that

Republicans, the "right to life gang", freezing Unemployed Americans (including FETUSES) in the Northeast
I just took this snapshot of our weather here in the Northeast:
Right now in the northeast, we're experiencing a multi-week cold snap of
the sorts that I cannot remember, including a Polar Vortex. It's safe to
say, knowing we're experiencing extremely high unemployment, that many
thousands of Americans in the northeast need their unemployment to purchase
heat to keep warm. Since January 1, the unemployment extension has been
filibustered by the Republicans along party lines. You need a
super-majority of 60 in the senate to pass the unemployment extension, not
51-49. You need 60 vot... more »
Conservatives Have Always Had A Problem With Women
Boehner was so proud yesterday that he picked a girl to give one of the

rural northeast Washington who votes with the Republican patriarchs on

in prison.
American progressives show their cluelessness by *asking* President Obama

A report from Congress’ Interior Committee says that 643 people were killed in Libya in 2013, mostly in assassinations and extra-judicial killings. The figure is said to be a significant increase on 2012. ....... Libya’s Grand Mufti, Sheikh Sadik Al-Ghariani had ordered revolutionaries to “eliminate” alleged criminals resisting arrest in the Warshefana area and pro-Qaddafi forces in Sebha. ....

US seems to signal no desire to reach a final resolution of the nuclear issues with Iran - instead , the US just might be content to string this along for years , with six month extensions granted and miserly removal of sanctions if milestones are reached. And similar to what we have seen with Syria , war talk , threats and pessimistic chatter and sudden escalation of US demands will accompany the nuclear talks every step of the way !

*Spectator*: Ed West - Why do most children’s books have a liberal bias?
...and now only children's books. Ed now believes he's not losing the plot
when he detects a liberal bias in today's children's TV. He's found that
he's not alone. Contrasting the conservative values enshrined in *Thomas

with liberal values from a very early age - and that the BBC's in on it.

Oh that's priceless, who on Earth would believe that of Ed Balls?
It seems that Ed Balls has pledged Labour to balance the UK's books and do
away with the budget surplus in the next Parliament if it wins the 2015

include eliminating the deficit and reducing debt as a share of GDP between
2015 and 2020.

The Common Core: A Disaster for Libraries, A Disaster for Language Arts, a Disaster for American Education
Stephen Krashen
Knowledge Quest 42(3): 37-45 (2014).
There never has been a need for the common core and there is no evidence
that it will do students any good. The common core ignores the real problem
in American education: Poverty. The common core will continue the process
of turning schools into test-prep centers, and bleed billions from places
the money is badly needed, where it can help protect children from the
effects of poverty. The only real goal of the common core is to do the
opposite, to profit a small group of the elite, the .01% at taxpayer
