So Many People Died The American System of Suffering, 1965-2014 By Nick Turse
Pham To looked great for 78 years old. (At least, thats about how old he thought he was.) His hair was thin, gray, and receding at the temples, but his eyes were lively and his physique robust all the more remarkable given what he had lived through. I listened intently, as I had so many times before to so many similar stories, but it was still beyond my ability to comprehend. Its probably beyond yours, too.
Pham To told me that the planes began their bombing runs in 1965 and that periodic artillery shelling started about the same time. Nobody will ever know just how many civilians were killed in the years after that.

"The truth is that we do not have to have a system where more money is only created when more debt is created. We could have a system where the federal government directly creates debt-free money that is spent directly into circulation by the federal government.
In fact, this has happened before.
As I have written about previously, during the presidency of JFK a limited number of debt-free United States Notes were issued by the U.S. Treasury and spent by the U.S. government directly into circulation without any new debt being created. In fact, each bill said "United States Note" right at the top.
Unfortunately, after JFK's presidency no more debt-free United States Notes were ever issued."
If the Federal Reserve did not exist and the U.S. government directly created money instead of borrowing it, it is conceivable that we could have a national debt of $0.00 today instead of $16,432,707,263,449.56.
Which option do you think our children and our grandchildren will wish that we had opted for?

Burn whatever we can find.

The Algeria hostage situation reported yesterday, where alleged Al Qaeda operatives took numerous hostages at a local BP, Statoil and Sonatrach JV gas plant in retaliation for the French incursion into Mali, has rapidly gone from bad to worse as some 34 hostages (out of the 41 originally reported) have been killed.

Which would explain the lack of reporting by the USSAMSM....the situation is still fluid.

Accentuate the positive, ignore that fact that most are dead. At least that's my take on it.

Mauritania: a history marked by political instability
Internally, Mauritania is characterized by chronic political instability. From 1978, the year in which President Mokhtar Ould Daddah was deposed by the military, the country lived through 13 coups détat or attempted coups détat before its first free, lawful, multiparty presidential election in early 2007 (Fichter, 2007, p. 17).
The presidency of Sidi Mohamed Ould Cheikh Abdallahi, how ever, was brutally interrupted on [color=#800000]6 August 2008[/color]
by another coup détat, which terminated the countrys first experience of democracy and brought the head of the presidential guard, Gen. Mohammed Ould Abdelaziz, to power. After a year during which his power was disputed, Abdelaziz won the presidential election on 18 July 2009,
which confirmed his legitimacy as the head of state (see Table 1).

Terror in North Africa: are Westerners pulling the strings? Daniel Howden, Independent, Jan 22 2013
Canada is investigating an allegation by the Algerian Prime Minister that one of its citizens coordinated the terror raid at the Saharan gas plant in which dozens of hostages were killed.Westerners, including a man with blond hair and blue eyes, are believed to have been among the attackers. A French jihadist, previously unknown to authorities, and 2 Canadians are suspected to have been involved in the hostage-taking, and reports also claim that a man with a Western accent was among the extremists who lured terrified gas workers from their rooms during the hostage crisis.
Futures Impressive in Light of Apple (AAPL) Carnage
By: Mark Hanna Posted on: January 24, 2013 at 9:00 am
While the NASDAQ futures are taking it on the chin, the premarket read for the S&P 500 and Russell 2K is flattish which is an impressive showing by this market as it continues to segregate Apple (AAPL), much as it has for the past few months. When I posted last night Apple was testing recent lows in the $480s, it is opening in the $460s (-10%!). Call me a bit surprised the market has completely isolated it."

"Did the Israeli nationals have foreknowledge of the events at WTC and were they filming the events prior to and in anticipation of the explosion?" The fact that it's blanked out indicates that the answer is clearly not an emphatic "no".
Nonetheless, the material that has already been released is sufficient to prove that the Israelis did indeed have foreknowledge of the attacks on the WTC. That is of course consistent with Israel's capability and history of staging false-flag terror, the two hours' advance warning of the WTC attack transmitted via the Herzliya / New York-based Israeli instant messaging service Odigo, the failure of Benjamin Netanyahu's friend Larry Silverstein and his children to turn up for work that day at the World Trade Center, Netanyahu's advance warning of, and Efraim Halevy's intimate knowledge of, the London 7/7 attacks, the $250,000 "loan" received by Bernard Kerik from Israeli billionaire Eitan Wertheimer together with $236,000 in rent paid by Steven C. Witkoff after Kerik visited Israel from August 26-29, 2001 to meet with Wertheimer and then claimed on September 16, 2001 that a "hijacker's passport" had been "discovered", along with multiple corroborating evidence much too numerous to mention in an introduction."
The logistic map: (a) As r increases from 2 to 4 the attracting final state is initially a single curve ( an equilibrium point for each r ) but then it repeatedly subdivides (pitchfork bifurcations) to make a rich and lean year (period 2) then periods 4, 8 etc., finally entering chaos (stippled bands). Subsequently there are windows of period 3, 5 etc. with abrupt transitions to and from chaos. The Lyapunov exponent indicates whether the system is chaotically amplifying small differences. During chaos it remains positive. The Mandelbrot set illustrates the fractal nature of the ordered and chaotic regimes when x and r are extended to the complex number plane. (b) A series of 2-D views of the iteration, including periods 1, 2 and 8 chaos, intermittency, and period 3. Pick an initial value x and find y by moving vertically to the curve y = r x (1 - x). Next we let the new x = y by moving horizontally to the sloping line. The two steps result in one iteration, i.e. xn+1 = y = r xn (1 - xn). (c) The non-escaping points form a disconnected repelling fractal for r = 4.5. The attracting final set has now broken up, resulting in a fractal Julia set. (d) A connected Julia set for the complex logistic [x-axis vertical] plotted by inverse iteration taking all the 2n square root solutions of the inverse function
IMG] />
At this point, a new erratic behaviour emerges, and the system wanders with no fixed period. chaos has appeared. All of the previous periodic attractors continue to exist hidden in the chaos as repellers, generating a tangled repelling flow, whose spreading causes sensitive dependence. As r increases further, windows of order, with new periods appear in a new and abrupt type of transition from chaos to order. There is yet a third type of chaotic transition represented by the mode-locked periodic feedback, as in the heart pacemaker and rotations on the periodic spirals of the Mandelbrot set illustrated below.
A portion of the Mandelbrot set of the logistic map. The fractal displays all possible quadratic dynamics. Although these vary and it is thus not exactly self-similar, it is nevertheless a fractal.
Finally a new situation emerges. The attractor becomes unstable. All that is left is a residual set of points, which do not escape, but are mapped chaotically among themselves.

[quote] What is the Difference Between Entrained Air and Cavitation? Along with entrained air, cavitation is a top candidate for causing pump problems. Cavitation occurs when the pumps internal pressures are lower than the vapor pressure of the liquid which results in rapid vapor formation within the pump which collapse as the liquid is swept into the higher pressure regions of the pump. The cavitation effect may cause material damage to the impeller and possibly casing, which is resultant of the sudden formation and implosion of vapor bubbles. [/quote]
The USSR was the 'pump' that was cavitating with the Berlin Wall.
Cheap oil could no longer be supplied to the Warsaw Pact.
To bleed the air, the Berlin Wall was collapsed. Not enough.
A coup to 'streamline efficiencies' was carried out in Moskva.
But instead, an 'Entrained Air' moment occurred. Nothing moved anywhere in the USSR. It disintegrated.
[quote]For reasons already presented in Part 1, I believe that per capita consumption rate is an important indicator of the direction and magnitude of economic growth/de-growth, and, that below a certain low level or per capita consumption (e.g., less than 1 barrel of petroleum per person per year, b/py) the petroleum driven food production system of a region starts to decline, along with a concurrent and proportional an increase in starvation and death in that region. In particular, my thesis is that that the extent of population decline is in direct proportion to that needed to keep per capita consumption at 1 b/py, until the population drops to its pre-petroleum era population, which I have assumed to equal that regions population in 1900.[/quote]
[quote]Final thoughts Of course, if the disaster presented above for rAP occurs, it would, by far, be the greatest magnitude of human loss and suffering in the history of mankind. This would eclipse the starvation and population decline of 1 billion I predicted for AF and FS by 2026, or the 67 million population decline in JP predicted to start a few years later in about 2033. All told then, we are looking at population declines for the four regions of rAP, AF, FS and JP totaling about 3.4 billion people by the end of my study period in 2065.[/quote]

In other earth shattering news...Ariel Sharon's brain is said to be showing significant activity after vegetating for the last seven years. Doctors are amazed because brain activity is rare in any Israeli politician, awake or in a coma. When asked about Sharon's condition, Netanyahu foamed at the mouth and threw a copy of the Sunday Times at the reporter.
Sharon was Prime Minister of Israel during the September 11, 2001 joint Israeli/neocon attack on America. In an attempt to provoke more stimulation in Sharon's brain, doctors are playing him a looped recording 24/7 of his alleged famous quote...

Wow. Apparently this particular professor hasnt been paying attention to the news. Or perhaps she is plagued by the sentiments of James Baldwin, the American novelist, essayist, playwright, poet, and social critic: Precisely at the point when you begin to develop a conscience you must find yourself at war with society. Being at war with society is a tough sell for a university professor embedded within and dependent upon the current version of society. "
This task force [one of several in place in Mexico] is pretty heavily armed and is embedded with the Mexican military, says William Robert "Tosh" Plumlee, a former CIA contract pilot who flew numerous missions delivering arms to Latin America and returning drugs to the United States as part of the covert Iran/Contra operations in the 1980s. These are boots on the ground ... seven to eight of them [in Joint Task Force 7], working in a civilian capacity, meaning they are not in uniform.
An explosion at the main headquarters of Mexico's state-owned oil company in the capital Thursday left at least several workers injured, blew out windows and damaged the building, the company said.
Local media reported that at least one person had died and that about 40 were injured.

View Full Size PHOTO: Firefighters search for survivors Guillermo Gutierrez/AP Photo Firefighters and workers dig for survivors after an explosion at an adjacent building to the executive tower of Mexico's state-owned oil company PEMEX, in Mexico City, Jan. 31, 2013.
Petroleos Mexicanos, or Pemex, said workers have been evacuated from the building. A reporter at the scene saw rescue workers trying to free several workers trapped. Television images showed people being evacuated on office chairs, and gurneys. Most of them showed injuries likely caused by falling debris.
Pemex said in a Tweet that several workers were injured in the blast but no one answered at its offices.
In an earlier Tweet, the company said it had evacuated the building because of problems with the electricity in its administrative skyscraper.
"A government official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said preliminary findings suggested the blast was caused by aged boiler exploding in a Pemex building next to the tower, Reuters reported.
"Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto arrived at the Pemex administration complex by helicopter Thursday night to supervise rescue operations, Pemex and the news agency La Prensa reported. Hundreds of Mexican military forces were sent to the complex to "preserve security," officials told newspaper El Universal.
"Sánchez said as many as 30 people remained trapped in the debris Thursday. Search-and-rescue dogs were sent into the skyscraper, parts of which remained on fire at 10 p.m. ET, cloaking the Mexico City skyline in a thick cloud of smoke, Telemundo reported.
The main floor and the mezzanine of the auxiliary building were heavily damaged, along with windows as far as three floors up.
"Pemex initially said the building had been evacuated because of a problem with its electricity supply. It then said there had been an explosion, but it didn't give the cause."
"Pemex Director Juan Jose Suarez said that there was "no evidence that it was a deliberate incident, or some kind of attack".
Company officials said that maintenance work had been carried out on the plant just minutes prior to the explosion.
President Calderon praised the emergency workers, who he said had managed to contain the fire before it could spread to the massive tanks of a neighbouring gas processing plant.
There have been several fires at Mexican refineries over the past month.
While investigations into those blazes have not yet concluded, preliminary evidence suggests they could have been caused by thieves tapping the lines to steal petrol."
