According to SkyNews, The Organisation of American States (OAS) has called a meeting of foreign ministers for August 24 to discuss the stand-off sparked when Ecuador granted asylum to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Twenty-three countries voted on Friday for the resolution proposed by Ecuador to convene the meeting at its Washington headquarters to discuss Quito's stand-off with Britain over Assange.

Post Sun Aug 19, 2012 9:41 am by mcgowanjm What kills Empire is not the predicted....but the Rosa Parks events.... Twenty-three countries voted on Friday for the resolution proposed by Ecuador to convene the meeting at its Washington headquarters to discuss Quito's stand-off with Britain over Assange. The US, Canada and Trinidad and Tobago voted no. The vote was taken at emergency talks to discuss the Assange case (...) The US envoy to the OAS, Carmen Lomellin, said a meeting of its foreign ministers 'would be unhelpful and harmful to the OAS's reputation as an institution'. Furthermore, Lenta.ru reports that Ecuador is also calling for an extraordinary meeting of the Union of South American Nations (UNASUR) to discuss the Assange case. It seems that the Anglosphere is now isolated from, and on a collision course with, the rest of the Americas. Good! (I can't believe that even Colombia voted against the USA... amazing, no?)

Adrio declined to discuss specifics regarding the police's plans, though it appeared late yesterday afternoon that officers would largely stay away from the communities and watch from a distance. Adrio said officers were aware of the dead body near where the miners had gathered yesterday and that they would attempt to recover it. "Our objective is to civilise the situation on the ground," the captain said. "The second objective is to find who killed our two officers and those who killed the other dead."

Just like Rosa Parks, what cause the revolution was that she was just too tired to walk any further....and so sitting down sparked the revolution.....how easy is that..... :twisted: Commentary: Even though I had little doubt that Ecuador would grant asylum to Assange, it was really heart-warming for me to listen to the absolutely beautiful statement of Foreign Minister Ricardo Patiño, in particular after learning of the mind-boggling arrogance of the Brits who dared to cross a line very few, if any, governments ever dared cross: threaten to violate the sovereignty of an embassy (the only other example I can think of is the USAF bombing the PRC embassy in Belgrade - which everybody forgot, of course). Does anybody remember that even the Iranian revolutionary government did not dare to openly say that it had seized the US embassy in Tehran, but that it hid behind a student movement instead? Yes, I know, this was a *very* thin fig-leaf for a regime which right in the wake of the Islamic revolution was rather over the top in most of its actions at the time. But even that regime did not have the arrogance to openly declare that it had violated one of the most basic rules of civilized behavior: one does not directly violate the diplomatic immunity of an official embassy. The Brits just fcuked up Big Time... :twisted: A slave doing what it thinks it's Master would have wanted....ANOTHER underrated cause of Empire collapse...... :twisted: :roll: :shock: :? 8-)

* Print * Permalink * RSS Andrew Freedman By Andrew Freedman In May, the U.S. Agriculture Department predicted a record corn yield after farmers planted the largest area of corn and soybeans since 1937. Three months later, after a searing drought engulfed a wide swath of the continental U.S., those crops lie in ruin. Despite all of the resources at forecasters’ disposal, the worst drought to strike the U.S. in nearly 50 years came on largely without warning across the fields of the Midwest and High Plains during late spring and early summer. Between May 1 and July 24, the drought footprint in the lower 48 states expanded from an already high 38 percent to a devastating 64 percent, engulfing more than a dozen states in the process, including nearly the entire corn and soybean growing region. Judging by past droughts, the drought of 2012 will likely cost the U.S. somewhere on the order of tens of billions of dollars."

Meanwhile, worldwide emissions are still growing, putting CO2 into the atmosphere as though it were some sort of global Roach Motel where molecules can check in, but they can’t check out.

Just what the Zionists that are running and ruining this nation want and need, another empty-headed, no questions asked full blown supporter of Apartheid Israel’s malevolent policies. Todd Akin’s rape remark has GOP fretting BTW, Todd old boy, just what in the hell is ‘legitimate rape?’ Is that what happens anytime a rep from AIPAC comes into your office and you get down on your hands and knees?
The AP, USAToday and the WSJ have yet to connect this Heat Wave/Drought to Climate Change. Not one mention. STUDY: TV Media Ignore Climate Change In Coverage Of Record ... mediamatters.org/research....climate-change.../189366 6 days ago – Climate Change Largely Absent From Media Reports On Extreme Heat ... But the Associated Press, the Los Angeles Times, and USA Today mentioned it ... Only 8% Of Coverage Pointed Out That Human Activities Are Driving ...
Why would Akin leave the GOP. What's the difference? " It was bad enough that Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin made his comments on "legitimate rape" in the first place. The comments are offensive in the cruelest way. It was worse from Romney's perspective that his vice presidential candidate has a close affiliation with Akin on a bill before the House that gives full rights of personhood to eggs upon fertilization (Turn out the lights, the party's over) Now this! Mr. Akin’s comments, made in an interview Sunday with a St. Louis television station, were not the only factor propelling abortion prominently into the national political dialogue. Meeting in Tampa, Fla., ahead of next week’s National Republican Convention, the party’s platform committee on Tuesday adopted a policy statement calling for a ban on abortion without an exception for rape. The Democratic National Committee immediately labeled that “the Akin Plank” as they tried to create a gender gap in both the presidential and Congressional races. Akin Says He Is Staying in Senate Race, Defying G.O.P., New York Times, August 21"
What's the difference? Ain't that the truth. He's their poster boy.

You don't get it. And the POTUS will have about 45 sec to make the call....;) What is happening to the Empire is, ironically, a process I would call of "Israelization": a dynamic in which it is rather obvious that the world's elites dare not speak against it, but the rest of the planet hates and despises it. We can think of "Israelization" as the inevitable backlash resulting from a systematic disregard for international law combined with an equally systematic use of violence or threat thereof (which is, of course, a form of violence in itself). Of course, the imperial rulers are far too ignorant of history, to full of hubris and racist arrogance and, frankly, too stupid to realize how dangerous this process is for them. They will "get it" only by the time it is way too late to stop it. "
Living in the Conspiracy "Living in the Middle Ages" "Todd Akin: The man who said too much" "'Rape can't cause pregnancy': A brief history of Todd Akin's bogus theory" Akin was surprised by the reaction, as he naturally assumed the people he was talking to would see nothing controversial in what he was saying. His mistake was that this type of comment is supposed to be limited to discussions with the like-minded, and not on a television interview that anybody can see. Being a Republican is like being a habitual liar: it is damn hard to keep your stories straight.

* Re: Isaac Forecast Lounge Less Praying, More Generators, Water, Boats.... See any similarities? www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2005/KATRINA_graphics.shtml Friday, August 26, 2005 At 1:00 AM EDT, maximum sustained winds had decreased to 70 mph (110 km/h) and Katrina was again downgraded to a tropical storm. At 5:00 AM EDT, the eye of Hurricane Katrina was located just offshore of southwestern Florida over the Gulf of Mexico about 50 miles (80 km) north-northeast of Key West, Florida. Maximum sustained winds had again increased to 75 mph (121 km/h) and Katrina was upgraded again to a Category 1 hurricane. By 8:00 AM CDT (1300 UTC), in New Orleans, water was seen rising on both sides of the Industrial Canal. At approximately 8:14 AM CDT (1314 UTC), the New Orleans office of the National Weather Service issued a Flash Flood Warning for Orleans Parish and St Bernard Parish, citing a levee breach at the Industrial Canal. The National Weather Service predicted three to eight feet of water and advised people in the warning area to "move to higher ground immediately."[14] By 9:00 AM CDT (2100 UTC), there was 6–8 feet of water in the Lower Ninth Ward.[15][16] Many of the new ground based wind measurements were published on the New Orleans National Weather Service web site on Friday, October 7, in their post-storm report on Katrina. The highest sustained winds measured at any ground-based site were 90 mph on Lake Pontchartrain. The highest gust measured on the ground was 135 mph in Poplarville, MS. Many wind measurement sites failed during the storm, so we will have to rely on aircraft and Doppler radar to arrive at the true wind speeds of Katrina at landfall. Here's a few highlights of the highest winds measured at the ground during Katrina, before instrument failure: New Orleans Lakefront Airport: sustained winds of 69 mph, gusting to 86 mph. Biloxi's Keesler Air Force Base: sustained winds of 54 mph, gusting to 90 mph. Gulfport airport: 46 mph, gusting to 58 mph. Lake Ponchartrain mid-lake buoy: 90 mph, gusting to 114 mph. Many of us heard that Category 5 winds were measured by the National Weather Service in Katrina. These rumors were aired as fact by television stations and other media outlets during the storm. However, as the post-storm report above outlines, these were just rumors, and no such winds were measured. If you listened to NPR last night, you also might have heard the story of how television stations in Baton Rouge were reporting a huge crime wave in Baton Rouge after the hurricane, and that an armed gang had even taken over the Mayor's office. These reports, later found out to be completely untrue, led to four-hour waits to buy guns at local gun stores in Baton Rouge. According to NPR, there was no increase in crime in Baton Rouge after the hurricane. The media, at times, did a poor job in separting fact from fiction during the storm, and there were in reality no sustatined winds above Category 1 measured on the ground during Katrina. Obviously, a demotion of Katrina to Category 3 status would have political consequences. classic.wunderground.com/...comment.html?entrynum=182 All we need are shots of Cantore, the Angel of Doom, on the River Walk, with oblivious tourists walking along Jackson Square.

Re: Isaac Forecast Lounge [Re: TXEB] #93764 - Mon Aug 27 2012 08:26 AM E We're about to find out via rapid intensification or not, Quote: Hurricane forecast models (the same ones that were used to predict Katrina’s path) indicate a tendency for more intense (but not overall more frequent) hurricanes when they are run for climate change scenarios (Fig. 1). Figure 1. Model Simulation of Trend in Hurricanes (from Knutson et al, 2004) In the particular simulation shown above, the frequency of the strongest (category 5) hurricanes roughly triples in the anthropogenic climate change scenario relative to the control. This suggests that hurricanes may indeed become more destructive (1) as tropical SSTs warm due to anthropogenic impacts. http://www.realclimate.org/index...canes-and-global-warming/ As far as I can tell, Katrina and Isaac are almost Identical at this point. corrections Always welcomed. The NHC Still has very little in the way of Intensity predictions. and the only thing that's changed in NO, is that it's 7 inches lower in elevation and the GOM is at least 3 inches higher.

Several dozens of the invading terrorists were killed and wounded in the resulting fighting, setting the base facility on fire and a number of the military vehicles and tanks were destroyed in the blast and fighting, whereas an attack helicopter among many hovering overhead which, in turn, were bombing and targeting Mujahideen combatants, got shot down by Mujahideen during the fight. Meantime, enemy’s spying balloons were destroyed and the center of district got badly damaged as a result of the successful operation increasing the death and injury toll. According the recent reports, more than 30 puppet soldiers were retrieved from beneath the rubble by the bulldozers and the dead and the wounded were being carried by about 30 ambulances, whereas the ambulance helicopters were busy carrying the dead and wounding. According to the witnesses to the scene, more than 10 government buildings were unbelievingly flattened and became piles of rubble. mcgowanjm posted on 2012-09-01 21:31:52 ET Reply Trace Private Reply Edit #697.

" Faced with defeat on all fronts, Washington planners, nonetheless, continue to uphold the delusional dream of an indefinite US stay in Afghanistan. Imperial dreams die hard." In lieu, then, of discussing Afghanistan and US militarism more broadly, the presidential campaign devolves into spectacle and triviality. Substance, where it is to be found, is limited to squabbles over who promises to cut the most from the already gutted American social safety net. The fact that the Pentagon appropriates over half the US budget (52 percent in 2011, according to the War Resisters League) in order to conduct campaigns of misery and terror abroad, leaving the hollow mantra of “shared sacrifice” in its wake at home, is beyond debate-beyond the pale. US militarism is simply an unquestionable pillar of the American way of life. Something the people of the world (from Vietnam to Afghanistan, from Iraq to Korea and beyond) have come to learn firsthand." We're getting our ass handed to us. And Clint Eastwood is our model. Pack up the band...it's now all over. Waiting for the False Flag that will project us into the Post 9/11 Shock Doctrine.
It's going to be 100 F today... And tomorrow. It will cool off to 97 by Wed. No one has to tell me, I don't have to google to know this is a Record....... It used to cost one barrel of oil to get about 100 barrels of oil out of the ground. These days one barrel only gets us 10 barrels back, and declining. And that means it's not cheap anymore.
So far, 48 NATO troops – including the three Australians killed on Wednesday – have died in 31 separate attacks. This month, during Ramadan, 11 US soldiers were killed in nine days. The high number represents 14 per cent of all combat fatalities this year and though it is still only August, the figure is already significantly higher than last year, when 31 troops died. The numbers are so high that some analysts claim they may represent the highest incidence of intentional friendly fire attacks in recorded military history...
When San Diego does this to you, you need to take the hint: ""Go ahead, nurse. Make my bed." A man's got to know his limitations and Clint Eastwood's performance at the Republican National Convention earned him notices the likes of which he hasn't received since City Heat. "Clint, my hero, is coming across as sad and pathetic. He didn't need to do this to himself. It's unworthy of him." - Roger Ebert "That was the weirdest thing I've ever seen at a political convention in my entire life." - MSNBC's Rachel Maddow "Tremendous!" - Academy Award-Winner, Jon Voight Eastwood began his career talking to trees and now he's addressing a chair. It's like watching the dummy without Paul Winchell.
I like that review best.

Rachel Maddow. You are quoting a sex pervert. I think she would look good with her head removed by a sharp sword.

And THIS is what I get replies to? Not the Afghans. Not Market Manipulation. Not Climate Change. HEat Records still falling today. Not Peak Oil. But Clint Fucking Eastwood losing an arguement to a chair. Election 2012 and the media: a vast rightwing conspiracy of stupid By Glenn Greenwald 31paul-ryan-with-his-wife-j-008.jpg Paul Ryan's address to the RNC contained a number of notably dubious claims, yet CNN's Wolf Blitzer chiefly admired 'his beautiful family'.
