Much of this type of private ownership will be foreign, just as our previous manufacturing base is now foreign. Now, consider private or foreign ownership of our water supplies....

Here's what happened when the US government "sold" the money system to private individuals..

"Readily available credit has made America “the land of opportunity” ever since the days of the American colonists. What has transformed this credit system into a Ponzi scheme that must continually be propped up with bailout money is that the credit power has been turned over to private parties who always require more money back than they create in the first place."

The greatest Ponzi scheme of all time. Capitalism is NOT the problem...private ownwership of the Capitalism IS!
It should be remembered that even Communism had to be Capitalized. This is why modern Capitalists do not care what kind of government people have, as long as THEY own the money system...

'Christ'- Mass: Biblical, Christian 'Holy Day' or Pagan, Romanist 'Holiday' ?

Was the Messiah born on December 25th? No, He was not.
He was likely born during the Biblical Feast of Tabernacles (e.g., John 1:14).

"And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt [tabernacled] among us,..." John 1:14, KJB
_______________________________________________________________________
"Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen...for the CUSTOMS of the people are vain" (Jer. 10:1-3).

"Christmas is coming! Quite so: but what is "Christmas?" Does not the very term itself denote it's source - "Christ-mass."
Thus it is of Roman origin, brought over from paganism. But, says someone, Christmas is the time when we
commemorate the Savior's birth. It is? And WHO authorized such commemoration? Certainly God did not. The Redeemer bade His disciples "remember" Him in His death, but there is not a word in scripture, from Genesis to Revelation, which tells us to celebrate His birth...."

"Does any Christian reader imagine for a moment that when he or she shall stand before their holy Lord, that they will regret having lived "too strictly" on earth? Is there the slightest danger of His reproving any of His own because they were "too extreme" in "abstaining from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul"
(1 Peter 2:11)? We may gain the good will and good works of worldly religionists today by our compromising on "little (?) points," but shall we receive His smile and approval on that day? Oh to be more concerned about what HE thinks, and less concerned about what perishing mortals think."

“Puritans (in both England and New England) nor confessional Presbyterians recognized so called "holy" days.
The only special days to be recognized by the church were the Lord's Day and days of fasting or thanksgiving, the latter days called on the occasion of significant providential events."

"There is no biblical warrant for special services connected with December 25th. Church meeting places should in general be simple and plain, without images or decorations. The pure preaching of the Word of God, the simple administration of the sacraments and the scriptural worship of God’s gathered people provide all the adornment needed for our assembly places. Faith comes by preaching, not by evergreen trees, colored lights, nativity pageants, or manger scenes with an idolatrous image of the Christ child."

"While a Christian might resent the general hostile anti-Christian attitude of the ACLU and businesses, in truth, Christ NEVER WAS IN Christ-MASS.”

"The MASS is an idolatrous perversion of the biblical ordinance of the Lord’s Supper."

Christmas Day
December 25

Christmas is the day on which Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. The Roman Catholic Church designates it as a day of holy obligation on which members of the Church must attend services.

Originally, the birth of Jesus was commemorated in the East on the Feast of Epiphany (January 6) but by 354, the Christmas Feast had taken hold in the West and was observed on December 25. Since the fifth century, most Eastern Orthodox Churches have celebrated the Nativity on December 25; however, some Eastern congregations, called "Old Calendarists," still use the Julian calendar and honor the birth of Christ thirteen days later, on January 7. The Armenian Church continues to celebrate "Old Christmas" on January 6.

As with many traditions surrounding Christmas, the selection of December 25 as a commemoration of Jesus' birthday may be an example of the blending of Christian ideas and the pagan traditions they replaced. December 25 was the date of the Mithric observance of the "Birthday of the Invincible Sun." This also coincided with Saturnalia and the Winter solstice during the period when Mithraism was practiced in Rome. Since the day was already being kept as a holiday, Christians may have adjusted the symbolism of the day, declaring it the birthday of their "Invincible Son." According to events in the Gospel of Matthew, the date of Jesus' birth may actually have taken place much earlier in the year.

The word "Christmas" means "the mass of Christ," and originated in the 11th century as a name for this feast. It was one of the most popular and universally celebrated holidays in Europe during the Middle Ages. During the Reformation, however, the celebration of Christmas began to decline in importance. Reformers engaged in complex doctrinal arguments in an attempt to prove the celebration of Christmas was unscriptural.

In some countries, the Protestant reforms brought about a ban of Christmas celebrations. By the time of the Restoration in 1660, however, the celebration of Christmas as a much more secular holiday was revived in these countries. In New England, Christmas remained outlawed until the mid-nineteenth century, and in Boston classes were held in the public schools on Christmas Day until 1870, with pupils who missed school that day being punished or dismissed. The mass
immigration of Irish Catholics to New England brought about the reinstitution of Christmas celebrations.

"Christmas.", DICTIONARY OF CHRISTIANITY IN AMERICA, 1990

Both the northern European and North American custom of exchanging gifts at Christmas... are possibly related to pre-Christian celebrations at the close of the year. The celebration of Christmas has sometimes been opposed as pagan by religious leaders. New England Puritans considered Christmas "popish" idolatry, and the Massachusetts General Court in 1659 passed an act against its celebration, though the law was repealed in 1681."
______________________________________________________________________
"Christmas", THE WORLD BOOK ENCYCLOPEDIA, Vol. 3, "C-Ch", 1997

"The first mention of December 25 as the birth date of Jesus occurred in A.D. 336 in an early Roman calendar. The celebration of this day as Jesus' birth date was probably influenced by pagan [unchristian] festivals held at that time. The ancient Romans held year-end celebrations to honor Saturn, their harvest god; and Mithras, the [sic] god of light... As part of all these celebrations, the people prepared special foods, decorated their homes with greenery, and joined in singing and gift giving.
These customs gradually became part of the Christmas celebration."

"In the late 300's, Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire... The popularity of Christmas grew until the Reformation, a religious movement of the 1500's. This movement gave birth to Protestantism. During the Reformation, many Christians began to consider Christmas a pagan celebration because it included nonreligious customs. During the 1600's, because of these feelings, Christmas was outlawed in England and in parts of the English colonies in America."
_______________________________________________________________________
"Christmas", COLLIER'S ENCYCLOPEDIA, Vol. 6, 1992

"... The suppression of the Mass during the Reformation led to a sharp change in the observance of Christmas in some countries. In England, the Puritans condemned the celebration and, from 1642 to 1652, issued a series of ordinances forbidding all church services and festivities. This feeling was carried over to America by the Pilgrims and it was not until the nineteenth-century wave of Irish and German immigration that enthusiasm for the feast began to spread throughout the country. Objections were swept aside and the old traditions revived among Protestants as well as Catholics."

THE CHRISTMAS WREATH
The use of evergreens and wreaths as symbols of life was an ancient custom of the Egyptians, Chinese, and Hebrews, among other peoples. Tree worship was a common feature of religion among the Teutonic and Scandinavian peoples of northern Europe before their conversion to Christianity. They decorated houses and barns with evergreens at the new year to scare away demons, and they often set up trees for the birds in winter. For these northern Europeans, this winter celebration was the happiest time of the year because it signified that the shortest day of the year--about December 21--had passed. They knew the days would start to get longer and brighter. The month during which this festival took place was named Jol, from which the word yule is derived. Yule has come to mean Christmas in some countries.

THE CHRISTMAS TREE
Trees and decorations. Ancient, pre-Christian winter festivals used greenery, lights, and fires to symbolize life and warmth in the midst of cold and darkness. These usages, like gift giving, have also persisted.

CHRISTMAS GIFT GIVING
Gift giving is one of the oldest customs associated with Christmas: it is actually older than the holiday itself. When the date of Christmas was set to fall in December, it was done at least in part to compete with ancient pagan festivals that occurred about the same time. The Romans, for example, celebrated the Saturnalia on December 17.
It was a winter feast of merrymaking and gift exchanging. And two weeks later, on the Roman New Year--January 1, houses were decorated with greenery and lights, and gifts were given to children and the poor. As the Germanic tribes of Europe accepted Christianity and began to celebrate Christmas, they also gave gifts.

THE CHRISTMAS TREE
There are several stories about the origin of the Christmas tree. People in Scandinavia once worshipped trees. When they became Christians, they made evergreen trees part of Christian festivals.

The Custom of decorating homes and churches with evergreens began in ancient times. The Romans exchanged green tree branches for good luck on the Calends (first day) of January. The English took this custom over for Christmas.

THE YULE LOG
The custom of burning the Juul (pronounced yool) came from the Norse and Anglo-Saxons. They burned a huge oak log once a year to honor Thor, the god of thunder. After the Norse became Christians, they made the yule log an important part of their Christmas ceremonies. The Scandinavians adopted the word yule to mean Christmas. In Lithuania, the word for Christmas actually means log evening. The yule log became equally important in England. The English considered it good luck to keep an unburned part of the log to light next year's yule log.

MISTLETOE
Mistletoe decorates many homes in the United States, Canada, and Europe at Christmastime. No one knows exactly how mistletoe became connected with Christmas. Ancient Celtic priests, called Druids, used to give people sprigs of the plant as a charm. Hundreds of years ago, some people in Europe used it at religious gatherings.

HISTORY
In A.D. 354, Bishop Liberius of Rome ordered the people to celebrate on December 25. He probably chose this date because the people of Rome already observed it as the Feast of Saturn, celebrating the birthday of the sun.

SOME CHRISTMAS CUSTOMS

"When we give or receive Christmas gifts, and hang green wreaths in our homes and churches, how many of us know that we are probably observing pagan customs? We do not wish to assert that they are not good customs; but they undoubtedly prevailed long before Christian times. The Romans gave presents on New Year's Day, and our bestowing of gifts at Christmas is a survival of that practice, as well as a commemoration of the offerings of the Magi at Bethlehem. The Yule-log, a feature of Christmas in old England, goes back to the days of the pirate Norsemen. Holly and mistletoe and wreaths of evergreen have been handed down to us by the Druids. And even our friend Santa Claus, that mysterious benefactor of our childhood days, existed in one form or another long before Christianity had attributed his virtues to St. Nicholas; for the god Woden, in Norse mythology, descended upon the earth yearly between December 25 and January 6 to bless mankind.

But, pagan though they be, they are beautiful customs. They help to inspire us with the spirit of "good will" even as the sublime services of our Church remind us of the "peace on earth" which the Babe of Bethlehem came to bestow. May that spirit fill the heart of each of us on every Christmas Day!"

Concerning Messiah’s birth, most serious Bible scholars know that the Messiah was not born on December 25.
They freely admit that it was a pagan holiday and many sources will even go so far as to admit that it was the birthday of Mithra (also known as ‘Tammuz’ by the Babylonians and as ‘Esus’ by the Druids)—a pagan deity that was proclaimed by his followers as the savior.

"I do not observe "Christ"-Mass because I do not believe it is a Biblical, Christian Holy Day; neither in its origins, nor in much of its worldly practice, although many Christians erroneously see it as a time to celebrate Messiah's birth. It is yet another example of Biblical Christianity polluted by the ungodly leaven of Roman Catholicism, which is itself rooted in Babylonian paganism.
It is my understanding that the Saviour was most likely born around the time of the Feast of Tabernacles (Leviticus 23:34) which is celebrated according to the Jewish lunar (Biblical) calendar around our modern-day months of September or October."

Even jury hiring is frozen
To cut costs, New Hampshire courts won't hold criminal or civil jury trials for a month. At least 19 other states have slashed court budgets and other state services.

By Bob Drogin  December 22, 2008
http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-courts22-2008dec22,0,387609.story
Reporting from Brentwood, N.H. -- Come February, the red-brick Rockingham County Courthouse, one of New Hampshire's busiest, will arraign criminal suspects, process legal motions and otherwise deal with murders, mayhem and contract disputes. What it won't do is hold jury trials.  The economic storm has come to this: Justice is being delayed or disrupted in state courtrooms across the country.
Full coverage: Financial crisis
Financially strapped New Hampshire has become a poster child for the problem. Among other cost-cutting measures, state courts will halt for a month all civil and criminal jury trials early next year to save $73,000 in jurors' per diems. Officials warn they may add another four-week suspension.  "It brings our system almost to a screeching halt," said county prosecutor James M. Reams. His aides are scrambling to reschedule 77 criminal trials that were on the February docket.  "All the effort to subpoena witnesses and prepare for those trials is right out the window," Reams said, frustration in his voice. "Internally, it's a monumental waste of time. We'll have to redo everything."
At least 19 other states, including California, have slashed court budgets and other government services as their economies have tanked, said Daniel Hall, vice president of the National Center for State Courts, a nonprofit in Williamsburg, Va.  "Courts are there to provide a fair and impartial resolution of disputes," Hall said. "When you start affecting that, you affect who we are."  California cut its judicial branch budget by more than $200 million, or about 10%, in the current fiscal year, and further reductions are almost certain as the state grapples with a projected $40-billion deficit. A Republican proposal unveiled last week, for example, would trim a further $205 million from the judiciary.  H.D. Palmer, spokesman for Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's finance department, said it was "not yet clear" whether the judiciary would be granted an exemption to the governor's order to reduce state payrolls by 10% through layoffs and unpaid furloughs.  Criminal defendants have a constitutional right to a speedy trial. Judges usually give such trials priority over civil cases involving broken sidewalks, medical malpractice and the like.  As a result, civil litigation and family law cases are bearing the brunt of the disruptions. And cascading bankruptcies, foreclosures and business disputes have only increased the backlog.   After two rounds of budget cuts in Florida, courts have laid off 280 clerks, lawyers and other staff members, and cut funding for a judges' unit that helps resolve civil disputes. State legislators meeting next month are expected to demand more spending cuts.  An additional 10% reduction would mean "all civil cases in the state of Florida would virtually be suspended," Belvin Perry Jr., chief judge of Florida's 9th Judicial Circuit and chairman of a trial court budget commission, warned a legislative committee in Tallahassee this month.  In Vermont, state Supreme Court Chief Justice Paul L. Reiber recently proposed closing as many as seven county courts, as well as laying off employees, to help ease a budget deficit. The state already shuts district and family courts half a day each week to save money.  "None of our choices are good," Reiber conceded in a memo to court employees.  With rising joblessness and falling revenues, New Hampshire projects a budget deficit this year of $250 million. The crisis has forced Gov. John Lynch to seek spending cuts across state government, including the judicial system.  John T. Broderick, chief justice of the state Supreme Court, has carved $2.7 million from the judicial budget. In addition to the one-month halt in jury trials and trimming back courtroom security, seven of the state's 59 judgeships will be left vacant through June, when the fiscal year ends. Three of the empty slots are in trial courts.   Worse, Broderick said, he may need to suspend jury trials for another month, and leave open a Supreme Court slot after one of the five justices retires in February. It is the state's only appellate court.  "In my 36 years here as a lawyer and judge, I've never felt as insecure about the state courts in terms of operations and resources as I do now," Broderick said.  Robert J. Lynn, chief justice of the superior courts, which conduct all New Hampshire jury trials, said he fears the delays inevitably will cause damage. "There is some element of 'justice delayed, justice denied,' no doubt about it," he said.
Christopher Keating, executive director of the New Hampshire Public Defender program, said his chief concern now is "people in custody who will endure delays in getting their day in court."   The state Supreme Court threw out two criminal cases this year because trials did not begin within six months of arraignment, the legal limit. Prosecutors fear more cases may be dismissed.
Delays in jury trials in 2001 and 2002, during a previous budget crisis, caused less disruption because they involved fewer cases, said John Safford, Superior Court clerk in the Hillsborough County district that includes Manchester, the largest city.   This time, he needs to reschedule up to 100 trials.  "I've been here 30 years," he said. "This is the worst I've ever seen it."
The delays may encourage some defendants to seek plea deals, or litigants to settle out of court.   Some counties are advocating out-of-court mediation and conflict resolution.   But other cases may face new hurdles as time passes.   "Witnesses die, memories fade; things happen when trials are delayed," said John Hutson, dean of Franklin Pierce Law Center, the state's only law school. "Then you'll get a bow wave of cases, so they pile up the next month and it's hard to catch up."  The slowdown has unnerved many residents in the state, where granite-hewn courthouses often anchor Colonial-era town squares.   "You're talking about erosion of our fundamental civic fabric," said Ellen J. Shemitz, executive director of the New Hampshire Assn. for Justice, which represents civil trial attorneys.   James J. Tenn Jr., incoming president of the state's bar association, said that as the crisis has grown, New Hampshire courts have been slow to process orders, respond to lawyers' requests and "do the daily work."   "We've just seen delay after delay after delay," said David Slawsky, a civil lawyer in Manchester. "The court process is breaking down."  Dennis Ducharme, a Manchester attorney, received cancellation notices last week for four personal injury cases scheduled for trial next year. He worries that a delay of six months, perhaps longer, will make witnesses less willing to testify.  "The longer you drag it out, the more reluctant people become to cooperate," he said.  In Newport, in the rural west, lawyer Lisa Wellman-Ally has seen a property rights trial postponed four times. Each time, she has prepared 100 exhibits, re-subpoenaed witnesses, refreshed her arguments and billed her client for the time.  "Then we would get bounced again," she said.  No new trial date has been scheduled.

"A Fundamentalist Christian Looks at Fundamentalist Islam!" by Don Boys, Ph.D.
Have American Christians misread or misinterpreted historic Islam? I am afraid many have, and as a Bible-believing Christian concerned with the truth, I want to challenge their thinking.
Many believe that all Muslims are uneducated fanatics; however, many Muslim clerics are highly educated, urbane, and politically informed.
Another false conception is that all Muslims are terrorists, and while State Department testimony reveals that the extremists in Saudi Arabia control 80% of U.S. mosques, some Muslims are anti-terrorists. Some Muslim leaders, especially in Europe and Egypt have taken anti-terrorist positions at the risk of their lives! I have great respect for those clerics. (However, where have mass demonstrations of American Muslims taken place since 9-11 to show abhorrence for terror?)
To provide non-Muslims with a proper historical, theological, and political understanding of Islamic influence on our nation we must look at some historical facts:
*It is a fact that where the Muslim faith flourishes, their flag follows. Where Muslims are in total control, they are in total control! There is no separation of mosque and state. It is also a fact proclaimed by numerous Muslims that their goal is to conquer America and the world! No one is a true Muslim unless he accepts that challenge!
*It is also a fact that Muslims and Christians do not worship the same God. Numerous Middle East scholars clearly state that Allah was one of 360 pagan gods worshipped at the Kaaba hundreds of years before Mohammed was born! See Encyclopedia Britannica, World Book, Coon, Farah, Thompson, etc.
*It is a fact that while Muslims talk about believing in Christ, they do not believe in the Christ of the Bible. They believe that He was not divine, did not die on the cross and did not rise from the dead. That is not believing in Christ.
*It is a fact that they do not believe in the Bible teaching of the Trinity (sura 5:75). In fact, Mohammed did not even know that the Trinity was the Father, Son and Holy Spirit! He thought Mary, the mother of Christ was a member of the Trinity! See sura 5:116.
*It is a fact that Mohammed was, in the words of Gibbon, an “illiterate barbarian” beheading over 800 Jewish males after the Battle of the Trench. See Gibbon, Durant, New Encyclopedia, etc.
*It is a fact that Islam teaches no one has a right to worship anyone but Allah. See Sura 9:29; 2:691; 47:4; etc. In fact, a Muslim is to be killed if he or she leaves Islam. See vol. 9, book 84, #64.
*It is also a fact that Mohammed took his son’s wife, slept with his Coptic slave, and had a nine-year-old wife. See Encyclopedia Britannica; Encyclopedia of Islam; Tabari (most famous Muslim historian); and Hadith vol. 7, book 62, number 65 where Aisha admitted, “My marriage (to Mohammed) was consummated when I was nine.” She should know!
*It is a fact that jihad is considered the “sixth pillar” of Islam, and while jihad can mean inner struggle, etc., it has always meant, “holy fighting in the cause of Islam.” See New Encyclopedia Britannica; Dictionary of Islam, and page 39 of the official Koran published in Saudi Arabia.
*It is a fact that Muslims true to the Koran (and Hadith) are not moderate. The terrorists are the ones carrying out the commands of Mohammed, and I believe those terrorists will target the true moderates (who would be considered the equivalent of modernists in Christian circles) with death.
*Koranic Islam (historic Islam) is America’s Trojan Horse full of an enemy that has clearly proclaimed plans to destroy America. If our leaders do not recognize that fact and act accordingly, they are like a man wading waist-deep through a snake and alligator infested Everglade’s swamp. They are going to get bit!
What should authorities do to escape planned Islamic terror? Recognize that our enemy is Koranic Islam (not the genuine moderates) because the first principle of war is to identify your enemy. Secondly, apprehend and arrest every person associated with terrorist groups. Thirdly, freeze all terrorist funds in the U.S. and free world with cooperation of our European allies. Fourthly, thoroughly investigate all Muslims in the military and academia, and then arrest those having terrorist connections. Fifthly, stop playing games at the airports. Realize few Americans are terrorists and spend time on those who are more likely to cause harm.
In other words, start to profile. Spend little time on little old ladies from Iowa and look more closely at Middle Easterners. Most will be innocent, and when they are innocent then have federal officials apologize to them and maybe even give them first class seats for their inconvenience.
I have been called a “hater” because I have reported the historical facts about Islam, Mohammed, and the Koran. I am not a hater, but a lover. It must be remembered that love without truth is not love. I am interested in truth not political correctness, unity, diversity, pluralism, multiculturalism, ecumenicity, or making Muslims feel warm and fuzzy with their 7th century religion. Truth and honesty are still important.
Must we permit Muslims to rewrite history to make them more comfortable with their religion? I refuse to do so, and while some will hysterically call me names, intelligent people will ask if my statements are correct. If I am not correct, then let me be corrected. If I am correct, then let my opponents respond to the historical facts.
If I can be proved wrong in my facts, I will apologize in the national media and rip my shirt on national television! I may even consider wearing sackcloth and ashes.
American leaders are making a deadly mistake in not understanding the nature of historic Islam, and we will all pay the price when the terrorists strike again. And when U.S. cities are in flames, the economy in a deadly spiral, and many innocent Muslims are killed by the “false moderates” (or by outraged non-Muslims), the Administration’s pandering toward all things Muslim will be discarded as quickly as long underwear in a Texas heat-wave.

Medical experiments in the U.S.A.
Human experimentation -- the practice of subjecting live human beings to science experiments that are sometimes cruel, painful, or deadly -- is a major part of U.S. history that you won't find in most history or science books. It is still continuing today. Here are a few examples, out of many more.They are not for the faint of heart:
1845: J. Marion Sims, later hailed as the "father of gynecology," performs medical experiments on enslaved African women without anesthesia. These women would usually die of infection soon after surgery. Because of his belief that the movement of newborns' skull bones during protracted births causes trismus, he uses a shoemaker's awl, a pointed tool shoemakers use to make holes in leather, to practice moving the skull bones of babies born to enslaved mothers.

1895: New York pediatrician Henry Heiman infects a 4-year-old boy whom he calls "an idiot with chronic epilepsy" with gonorrhea as part of a medical experiment.

1906: Harvard professor Dr. Richard Strong infects prisoners in the Philippines with cholera to study the disease; 13 of them die. He compensates survivors with cigars and cigarettes. During the Nuremberg Trials, Nazi doctors cite this study to justify their own medical experiments.

1919: Researchers perform testicular transplant experiments on inmates at San Quentin State Prison in California, inserting the testicles of recently executed inmates and goats into the abdomens and scrotums of living prisoners.

1931: Cornelius Rhoads, a pathologist from the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, purposely infects human test subjects in Puerto Rico with cancer cells; 13 of them die. Though Rhoads gives a written testimony stating he believes that all Puerto Ricans should be killed, he later goes on to establish the U.S. Army Biological Warfare facilities in Maryland, Utah and Panama, and is named to the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, where he begins a series of radiation exposure experiments on American soldiers and civilian hospital patients.

1932: The U.S. Public Health Service in Tuskegee, Ala. diagnoses 400 poor, black sharecroppers with syphilis but never tells them of their illness nor treats them; instead researchers use the men as human guinea pigs to follow the symptoms and progression of the disease. They all eventually die from syphilis and their families are never told that they could have been treated.

1939: In order to test his theory on the roots of stuttering, prominent speech pathologist Dr. Wendell Johnson performs his famous "Monster Experiment" on 22 children at the Iowa Soldiers' Orphans' Home in Davenport. Dr. Johnson and his graduate students put the children under intense psychological pressure, causing them to switch from speaking normally to stuttering heavily.

1944: As part of the Manhattan Project that would eventually create the atomic bomb, researchers inject 4.7 micrograms of plutonium into soldiers at the Oak Ridge facility, 20 miles west of Knoxville, Tennessee.

1956: U.S. Army covert biological weapons researchers release mosquitoes infected with yellow fever and dengue fever over Savannah, Georgia, and Avon Park, Florida, to test the insects' ability to carry disease. These experiments result in a high incidence of fevers, respiratory distress, stillbirths, encephalitis and typhoid among the two cities' residents, as well as several deaths.
1962: Researchers at the Laurel Children's Center in Maryland test experimental acne antibiotics on children and continue their tests even after half of the young test subjects develop severe liver damage because of the experimental medication .
1963: Chester M. Southam, who injected Ohio State Prison inmates with live cancer cells in 1952, performs the same procedure on 22 senile, African-American female patients at the Brooklyn Jewish Chronic Disease Hospital in order to watch their immunological response. Southam tells the patients that they are receiving "some cells," but leaves out the fact that they are cancer cells. He claims he doesn't obtain informed consent from the patients because he does not want to frighten them by telling them what he is doing, but he nevertheless temporarily loses his medical license because of it. Ironically, he eventually becomes president of the American Cancer Society.
1987: Philadelphia resident Doris Jackson discovers that researchers have removed her son's brainpost mortem for medical study. She later learns that the state of Pennsylvania has a doctrine of "implied consent," meaning that unless a patient signs a document stating otherwise, consent for organ removal is automatically implied.
1994: In a double-blind experiment at New York VA Hospital, researchers take 23 schizophrenic inpatients off of their medications for a median of 30 days. They then give 17 of them 0.5 mg/kg amphetamine and six a placebo as a control. According to the researchers, the purpose of the experiment was "to specifically evaluate metabolic effects in subjects with varying degrees of amphetamine-induced psychotic exacerbation".
1995: A 19-year-old University of Rochester student named Nicole Wan dies from participating in an MIT-sponsored experiment that tests airborne pollutant chemicals on humans. The experiment pays $150 to human test subjects.
2003: Two-year-old Michael Daddio of Delaware dies of congestive heart failure. After his death, his parents learn that doctors had performed an experimental surgery on him when he was five months old, rather than using the established surgical method of repairing his congenital heart defect that the parents had been told would be performed. The established procedure has a 90- to 95-percent success rate, whereas the inventor of the new procedure would later be fired from his hospital.

The US Congress, through it's trade policies, moved production out of the US, and by opening trade with Communist China, set them up as an economic powerhouse. None of this is by mistake. The Congress is full of TRAITORS which have sold us out to the Communists...Joseph McCarthy was right..."Conspiracy Theorists" were right...I urged people in my district, many years ago, not to vote for Bob Goodlatte for Congress, because he supported NAFTA, and now we are reaping the "benefits" of his and his peers' policies. We are now dependent on Communist China for our future...a future of INTERDEPENDENCE...

What is happening is the passing of the "Judas Goat" baton from ecumenical, compromising, universalist Billy Graham, who has served the New World Order's purposes well in helping to serve up evangelical's for political slaughter at the hands of the CFR-dominated Republican and Democratic Parties, to CFR, ecumenical apostate Rick Warren. Like fellow CFR-member and Southern Baptist Judas Goat, Dr. Richard Land (SBC Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission), Rick Warren is a traitor to the Christian church in America.

THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE -- A SHORT CRITIQUE

www.radioliberty.com/purpose.html

by Dr. Stanley Monteith
[excerpt, emphasis added]

People ask why I do not recommend Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Life to learn about God’s purposes for our lives. I have enjoyed and profited from all the things the book tells Christians to do. I agree with them. His main point for us is to make God’s plans the first priority in our life and to surrender our life to Him. I heartily agree.

However, I studied his Purpose Driven Life and noticed that often his quotations from “the Bible” are not Biblical. He uses many translations and paraphrases which he still calls “The Bible;” and even in using those he sometimes omits very important content from the passages and in his writing about them. He has made major omissions that have changed the gospel message inconspicuously so that it corresponds with the essential occult teachings of the New Age.

HE HAS OMITTED, and removed from view, several major teachings in the Bible: [continued]

Instructions for Preparing an RS2477 Claim
On BLM and National Forest System Lands

Introduction
Access within and across BLM and National Forest system lands is an issue of concern to local governments, emergency service providers, commercial operators, interest groups and private citizens. One way to acquire access is through the successful establishment of an RS 2477 claim.

In summary, RS 2477 (short for Section 2477, Federal Revised Statutes), was a provision included in an 1866 mining law to allow continued public access in and across lands removed from the public domain. This provision of law states, “The right-of-way for the construction of highways over public land, not reserved for public uses, is hereby granted.” (An Act Granting Right of Way To Ditch and Canal Owners Over The Public Land, and for Other Purposes [Mining Law of 1866], Act of July 26, 1866, ch. 262, § 8, 14 Stat. 251, codified at R.S. 2477, recodified at 43 U.S.C. § 932)

When this law was repealed by Congress in 1976, those “public” roads existing on BLM lands prior to 1976 were, and continue to be exempted from this repeal. On National Forest system lands, those public roads existing at the time the forest reserve was created (or annexed) were also exempted from this repeal. (Pub. L. No. 94-579, § 706(a), 90 Stat. 2793 (1976); see also Recognition of R.S. 2477 Rights-of-Way under the Department of the Interior’s FLPMA Disclaimer Rules and Its Memorandum of Understanding with the State of Utah, United States General Accounting Office Washington, DC 20548 B-300912, February 6, 2004, and Highway Rights Of Way On Public Lands: R.S. 2477 And Disclaimers Of Interest Congressional Research Service Report For Congress (received through the CRS web) Order Code RL32142, November 7, 2003.)

Examples of RS 2477 rights of way on BLM or National Forest lands include:

a. a right of way that leaves a county road, enters federal land, continues through federal land and returns to a county road.

b. a right of way that begins on federal land continues through federal land and ends on federal land.

c. a right of way that leaves a state highway or county road, enters federal land, and continues to private property.

d. a right of way that leaves a state highway or county road, enters federal land, and continues to state land

e. a right of way that leaves a state highway or county road, enters private land, continues to federal land, and ends on federal land, a state highway, or a county road

f. a right of way that leaves a state highway or county road, enters State land, continues to federal land, and ends on federal land, a state highway, or a county road. (see Amended R.S. 2477 Inventory Protocol: Perfecting R.S. 2477 Assertions in Moffat County, Colorado, May, 2005.)

All RS 2477 claims are likely to be challenged on the grounds of either state or federal law, depending on the state you live in. In Arizona, for example, an RS 2477 challenge is most likely to be decided on the construction of federal law due to the Federal Ninth Circuit’s general reliance on federal law to interpret RS 2477 claims. Conversely, an RS 2477 case in Colorado is likely to be decided on the construction of Colorado State law, due to the Tenth Circuit’s reliance on state law to interpret RS 2477 claims. (see Federal Regulation of R.S. 2477 Rights-Of-Way. NYU Annual Survey Of American Law Vol. 63:547, 2008. See also White Paper Review: Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance v. Bureau of Land Management Prepared by: Dr. Martin D. Moore, Research Associate
Southwest Center for Resource Analysis / Western New Mexico University, 2008)

Preparing A Claim
The following steps will assist you in preparing a verifiable RS2477 claim in your area. These involve research, documentation, and government action.

Research
1. Identify on any official federal, state, or county map the road or easement name you are seeking to claim.
a. If the road or easement is located on the map, MOVE TO STEP 2.

b. If the road or easement is not on a map, use a geographic positioning sstem (gps) to mark the coordinates for the beginning and end points of the road or easement, and take photographs of the road. Then, MOVE TO STEP 2.

2. Check the county records to see if that road, trail, or easement has been claimed as RS2477.
a. If you don’t find evidence that the county has taken official action to claim an RS 2477 road or easement, MOVE TO STEP 3.

b. If you do find evidence that the county has taken official action to claim an RS 2477 road or easement has been claimed through official county action, ask to see and receive a copy of:
i. minutes of the meeting in which the action took place; and
ii. documents and/or maps supporting the action to claim the road. These documents should include:
1. if a road crosses BLM lands, official (federal, county, or state) maps that pre-date 1976.
2. if a road crosses National Forest lands, official maps that pre-date the establishment of the forest reserve.
3. copies of County Board minutes from the time period the road was originally accepted showing that:
-the road was accepted into the county road system; or
-the county gave approval to spend funds to construct, repair or maintain the road

c. If you are satisfied that the county has back-up documentation as outlined in paragraph 2(b), STOP. YOU DO NOT NEED TO FILE A CLAIM.

d. If you are not sure that the county has adequate back-up documentation, CONSULT LEGAL COUNSEL.

e. If you are not satisified that the county has adequate back-up documentation, MOVE TO STEP 3.

3. On an official federal, state, or county map, mark the beginning point, the route, the width, and end points of the road or easement you are seeking to claim.

4. If possible, take pictures of and plot on a Geographic Positioning System (GPS) unit the beginning point, the route, the distance, the width, and the end point of the road or easement.

5. Check county records for evidence of :
a. the inclusion of the road or easement on the county or state road system; or

b. approval by the County Board to spend public funds for constructing, repairing, or maintaining the road; or

c. the expenditure of public funds for constructing, repairing, or maintaining the road.

Notes:
1. These records must pre-date 1976 for roads or easements on BLM lands. For roads or easements on National Forest lands, they must pre-date the establishment of the forest reserve.

2. To aid your search of county records, ask if your county has compiled a historic record including:

a. past County Board meeting minutes showing official actions to accept roads or easements into the county system. You will want minutes for County Board meetings that occurred:
i. prior to 1976 for roads or easements on BLM lands;
ii. prior to the establishment of a forest reserve for roads or easements on National Forest system lands.

b. past County Board meeting minutes showing official actions to abandon or remove roads or easements from the county system. You will want minutes for County Board meetings that occurred:
i. prior to 1976 for roads or easements on BLM lands;
ii. prior to the establishment of a forest reserve for roads or easements on National Forest system lands.

c. past County Board meeting minutes showing official actions to approve the use of public funds to construct, repair, or maintain the road or easement. You will want minutes for County Board meetings that occurred:
i. prior to 1976 for roads or easements on BLM lands;
ii. prior to the establishment of a forest reserve for roads or easements on National Forest system lands.

d. official county maps and road / trail / easement inventory lists created:
i. prior to 1976 for roads or easements on BLM lands;
ii. prior to the establishment of a forest reserve for roads or easements on National Forest system lands.

3. If the county has compiled historic records, ask for a copy of the records. There may be a copying charge.

4. If the county has not compiled historic records, ask for the location of:
a. Archived Board meeting minutes (often in the office of the County Clerk, County Recorder, or Clerk of the Board), dated:
i. prior to 1976 for roads or easements on BLM lands;
ii. prior to the establishment of a forest reserve for roads or easements on National Forest system lands.

b. Historic maps and road/easement inventory lists created:
i. prior to 1976 for roads or easements on BLM lands;
ii. prior to the establishment of a forest reserve for roads or easements on National Forest system lands.

c. Archived financial records, which may or may not be public record.

Documentation

In order to build a complete file for each R.S. 2477 Right of Way, the following steps are recommended:
1. Use numbers or letters, along with common names (if any) to identify each right of way for future reference.

2. Note the type of right of way. These include:
a. State Highway: recognized by State Highway road numbers.
b. County Road: recognized by County road numbers.
c. Dirt: Vegetation has been mechanically removed to bare soil. Some vegetation re-growth may occur depending on the age of the right of way or time since last maintained.
d. Two-Track: Vegetation is generally absent on each vehicle track and present between vehicle tracks.
e. ATV: Generally the same as Two-Track with approximately four feet distance between tracks. Single-track motorcycle tracks fit the ATV category.
f. Livestock: Generally single-track rights of way used for public access.
g. No Physical Evidence: The existence of a right of way can be proven despite a lack of current maintenance or use.

3. Document the use of the right of way. If available, any anecdotal explanation or discussion of the public uses should also be included. For example, if the use is “access to cabin” then any information about the owner of the cabin, when it was built, and whether it was originally part of a ranch or homestead should be included. Types of uses may include, but are not limited to:
a. connects road “a” with road “b”
b. motorcycle route for recreational use
c. access to cabin
d. maintenance of barbed wire fence
e. access to hang gliding launch pad
f. access to water reservoir or spring
g. access to mining claim
h. access to hunting location
i. access to dispersed camping location
j. access to livestock gathering place
k. access to windmill
l. access to scenic overlook
m. alternative route to “a” during heavy snow

4. Document the physical location of the right of way
a. The location of routes may be entered as a layer in a Geographic Information System computerized mapping system.
b. A database using Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates may be used to document the exact location of the right of way.
c. Drawing on 1:24000 USGS maps or official county road maps can locate the right of way.
d. When possible, an estimated width of the right-of-way should be documented.

5. Document the approximate date or year when the right of way came into existence.
a. This can be based on date of construction, repair, acceptance, etc.

6. Document the source(s) that identifies the right of way.

7. Compile gathered information pertaining to the public usage of the right of way (e.g. trailing livestock, hunting, motorized recreation, mining, etc.)

a. Where possible, compile affidavits documenting public use of the rights of way. Affidavits detailing the use of a road in detail beyond a phrase or short sentence are important.

8. Compile ground truth evidence of the right of way. (GPS, photographs)

Government Action
1. If you are a county or state, you need to claim, through binding resolution or legislation, the RS2477 roads, trails, or easements that you have gathered evidence on.

2. If you are a citizen or private group, compile the evidence you have gathered and request that your Board of County Commissioners (or state legislature and governor) claim the road, trail, or easement as RS2477. This request should be in writing through either a letter, a resolution from your organization, or a petition with signatures. Include a complete copy of your evidence with the request.

Microsoft's HealthVault, the medical records database, is to be integrated with VeriMed's human-embedded RFID tags, allowing doctors to access the medical records of unconscious patients with a quick scan of the arm.
VeriMed consists of an RFID tag that is embedded in the arm of a hopefully willing participant, and responds with a 16-digital identity code when queried at 134KHz. This code can then be used to identify the person through VeriChip's website, and will soon be able to link to their medical records as stored on Microsoft's HealthVault system

U.S. Treasury Prepares To Rip-Off the u.S.

The American people are getting set-up for a major economic swindle by the U.S. Treasury as well as the Commodities (Mercantile) Exchange and due to economic ties, other freedom-loving people around the world will pay as well.

Based on first-hand interviews with numismatic, precious metal and circulation coin experts, Hour Of The Time has discovered the following alarming facts concerning precious metals in the u.S.

Today, December 15 2008 was reported to be the last shipments from the U.S. Mint for the year, no matter what their obligations or prior commitments were. They have also reportedly decreased their “allocations” to authorized U.S. Mint distributors by 70%, despite prior agreements or historical arrangements. As well, the U.S. Mint will no longer be minting fractional precious metal coins, thus eliminating a major segment of the investing public from participating in the exchange of lawful money.

As an aside, it should be noted that the Department of the Treasury is making a new run of quarter designs, which involve a very unique set of legal entities for the researcher.

The “Commodities Exchange”, as people in the trade call it, is now reported to be refusing to fill contractual obligations for payment of bond in precious metals. Let us look at an excerpt concerning gold from the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) for more insight into why gold is important to trade, stability and economic good;

“Gold
Perhaps no other market in the world has the universal appeal of the gold market. For centuries, gold has been coveted for its unique blend of rarity, beauty, and near indestructibility. Nations have embraced gold as a store of wealth and a medium of international exchange; individuals have sought to possess gold as insurance against the day-to-day uncertainties of paper money.

COMEX Division gold futures and options provide an important alternative to traditional means of investing in gold such as bullion, coins, and mining stocks.

Gold futures contracts are also valuable trading tools for commercial producers and users of the metal. Commercial concentrations of gold are found in widely distributed areas: in association with ores of copper and lead, in quartz veins, in the gravel of stream beds, and with pyrites (iron sulfide). Seawater contains astonishing quantities of gold, but its recovery is not economical.

The greatest early surge in gold refining followed the first voyage of Columbus. From 1492 to 1600, Central and South America and the Caribbean islands contributed significant quantities of gold to world commerce. Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Panama, and Hispaniola contributed 61% of the world's newfound gold during the 17th century. In the 18th century, they supplied 80%.

Following the California gold discovery of 1848, North America became the world's major gold supplier; from 1850 to 1875, more gold was discovered than in the previous 350 years. By 1890, the gold fields of Alaska and the Yukon were the principal sources of supply and, shortly afterwards, discoveries in the African Transvaal indicated deposits that exceeded even these. Today, the principal gold producing countries include South Africa, the United States, Australia, Canada, China, Indonesia, and Russia.

The United States first assigned a formal monetary role for gold in 1792, when Congress put the nation's currency on a bimetallic standard, backing it with gold and silver.

During the Great Depression of the 1930s, most nations were forced to sever their currency from gold in an attempt to stabilize their economies.

Gold formally reentered the world's monetary system in 1944, when the Bretton Woods agreement fixed all the world's paper currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar which in turn was tied to gold. The agreement was in force until 1971, when President Nixon effectively cancelled it by ending the convertibility of the dollar into gold.

Today, gold prices float freely in accordance with supply and demand, responding quickly to political and economic events.

Gold is a vital industrial commodity. It is an excellent conductor of electricity, is extremely resistant to corrosion, and is one of the most chemically stable of the elements, making it critically important in electronics and other high-tech applications.

A broad cross-section of companies in the gold industry, from mining companies to fabricators of finished products, can use the COMEX Division gold futures and options contracts to hedge their price risk. Furthermore, gold has traditionally had a role in investment strategies, and gold futures and options can be found in investors' portfolios.”

Based on interviews with precious metals experts, the frightening realization is that they have less than 20% of the metals needed to fill their contractual agreements with investors. Therefore, they are now fulfilling these “agreements” with an exchange of Federal Reserve Notes rather than the agreed upon precious metal.

This is resulting in a further run on the supply of gold and silver in circulation, resulting in an artificial rise or “premium” on the prices. For example, a 30-year expert in the field of precious metals and coins who is listed on Dunn and Bradstreet, a provider of international and US business credit information and credit-reports, had the following to report.

1) Precious metal dollar coins have had such premiums added to their selling price as to increase their final selling prices by up to $70 FRN’s per-coin above market value. This has been greatly affected by investors desire to own precious metals, no matter the cost, because of fear of the strength of the U.S. Dollar.

2) 100-ounce silver bullion bars have been harboring up to $3 FRN’s per-ounce above current market value, thus resulting in an artificial propping of the U.S. dollar and artificial suppression on the real value of silver. This has been further exasperated by the shortcomings of commodity bond commitments along with skepticism of the solidity of the U.S. Dollar in the marketplace.

We hope that everyone can take heed of the current events in the precious metals market and learn the true value and safety of precious metals investing through sources such as the Hour Of The Time.

The Great Depression was not caused by the stock market crash of 1929...it was caused by the lack of money in circulation. This is very much like credit drying up (same). You can well imagine the implications of foreign markets, wary of our "promise to pay" (seeing as we are now over TEN TRILLION DOLLARS in debt), refusing the shipments we have become so dependent on. Welcome to the world of fractional reserve lending, finance capitalism, and interdependence, all rolled into one, like so many pigs in the mud. The united States of America's independence was sold on the international markets. Like HOTT has said...do what you can in order to insure your survival for six months to a year...as I said several years ago...hang on tight, the ride's about to get pretty bumpy.

North Korea reported ready to fire more missiles 
SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea has deployed more than 10 missiles on its west coast for what appears to be an imminent launch, a South Korean newspaper said on Thursday, two days after the North fired two short-range missiles into the Yellow Sea. It would be an unprecedented test if the North fired all of the surface-to-ship and ship-to-ship missiles, but intelligence sources quoted by the Chosun Ilbo paper said they thought the North may launch five to seven of them. The North has forbidden ships to sail in an area in the Yellow Sea until October 15 in preparation for the launch, an intelligence source told the paper. The North fired two missiles on Tuesday in routine military drills, South Korea's defence minister said on Wednesday. "If the North fires a large number of missiles, it would be difficult to see it as routine exercise," the source was quoted as saying.

Sadly, few people understand what is actually happening here today...few know what the "plan" is, but as it turns out, the "Conspiracy theorists" were right, but the people at large wouldn't listen. The people were taught to ridicule "conspiracy" talk, as if the truth were ridiculous lies. War has been declared on the people of the united States by their very own elected officials. The war is, to a great degree, economic. They put that pyramid on the back of the dollar bill for a reason. As you watch your savings and your country's economic system go down the tubes, you are quickly becoming an economic slave. The government and the media will easily manipulate "public opinion" against those of us who believe in the constraints of Constitutional government and the original structure that was created in this country so long ago, but has been taken from us. I said years ago that the "terrorist" of the "future" is an American standing with the Constitution in one hand and a rifle in the other...that "future" is here...NOW!

"Israel and the US supported Georgia against Russia, and Syria thus saw a chance to capitalise on Russian anger by advancing its long-standing relations with Moscow," said Taha Abdel Wahed, a Syrian expert on Russian affairs. "Syria has a very important geographical position for the Russians. Relations between Damascus and Moscow may not yet be strategic, but they are advancing rapidly."

"Congress has specified that a Federal Reserve Bank must hold collateral equal in value to the Federal Reserve notes that the Bank receives. This collateral is chiefly gold certificates and United States securities. This provides backing for the note issue."

Really ?

"Federal Reserve notes are not redeemable in gold, silver or any other commodity, and receive no backing by anything This has been the case since 1933. The notes have no value for themselves, but for what they will buy. In another sense, because they are legal tender, Federal Reserve notes are "backed" by all the goods and services in the economy."

Emergent Church: Top Evangelicals Like Dr. Dobson Huddle with the Hares and Hunt with the Hounds!

Don Boys, Ph.D.
It is obvious that many evangelical leaders do not want to be “put on the spot” especially when they are asked to take a position that embarrasses their friends or supporters. Many evangelical leaders often criticize political cronyism in the political arena but often refuse to deal with religious cronyism when their friends are involved. Too many evangelical leaders preach convictions but practice compromise. They are quick to point out dangerous error in the political arena but are very reluctant to see dangerous error in some of their own connections. On many controversial issues their favorite color is grey. Not black or white. They try to huddle with the hares and hunt with the hounds! Such is the relationship of leading evangelicals with the Emergent Church.
There is no question that the Emergent Church is a departure from historic Christianity. Their many leaders are unabashed universalists, mystics, and kingdom builders. Leaders make it very clear that they are not too concerned with your final destination as long as your journey is kingdom oriented—and you vote Democrat! As with all movements, there would be some who do not take extremist positions; however, I cannot be rightly accused of distortion, dishonesty, or even disingenuousness. EC leaders are prolific authors and have made their positions clear.

I contacted leading evangelicals to see where they stand on this clearly unorthodox movement and found it very revealing. I am aware that interdenominational ministries must appeal to all segments of Christians to pay their bills; however, the Scripture is clear that all of us have an obligation to stand for truth and against error. We all make mistakes, take wrong positions from time to time but to remain in error is without excuse. To make errors is really human but to remain in error is really dumb!

Furthermore, all Christians are obligated to contend for the faith and to exhort, rebuke, etc., but when some try to carry out such clear commands they are accused of being haters, heresy hunters, grenade throwers, bigots, etc., and those are the kind things they call us!

I informed many leading evangelical leaders that I was writing a series on the Emergent Church that would go to over 11,000 newspapers, television and radio stations and would appreciate a response so my readers can assess them. I had some surprises.

My first response was from Moody and they were very definite. “Moody Bible Institute does not endorse the emerging/emergent church.” There it is, very precise with no dodging. Moody is to be commended. They went on to say, “Scripture is our sole authoritative source of revelation and insight into the God whom we serve. Therefore, Moody rejects an overemphasis on spiritual experience as a reliable teacher of spiritual truth and on cultural relevance as the highest goal of ministry.”

My response from Precept Ministries (Kay Arthur) here in the Chattanooga area was from Diane Hitt who was very kind, helpful, and informed. She said, “Kay has spoken at some conferences where EC people also were although she disagreed with many of them especially leading authors.” She said, “Kay believes, ‘If I don’t go out with the truth how will they hear?’” Diane was informed about some of the leaders and their books along with their false teaching.

I don’t question Kay’s sincerity and good motives to get out the truth; however, it is the same justification Billy Graham has used for 50 years in his yoking up with unbelieving preachers, and I believe all of us must be careful about our associations and ministries we silently approve by our alliances with those in doctrinal error. After all, if we really love those in error are we not obligated to tell them the truth?

I received a message from Ravi Zechariahs’ assistant who wrote, “Ravi has not written or spoken directly on the emergent church. He feels they are asking good questions, but he has concerns over the answers they are providing. I can give you some resources that we have sent to others regarding these topics.” As she continued, she seemed to be uncomfortably straddling a very thin fence. A website she provided was really a defense by the main spokesmen for the Emergent Church! Ravi is known as a Christian apologist and I expected better of him.

Moreover, I disagree about the EC leaders asking “good” questions. I have noted that their questions usually elicit left wing, radical, kingdom building, responses. Furthermore, Zechariah appeared on Robert Schuller’s television program in April 2004 without any caution, correction, or condemnation of Schuller’s many flaky theological errors. It seems Ravi the watchdog has become a lapdog! How tragic.

Chuck Swindoll responded with a pitch for me to spend time on his website. He never responded to my question. I replied to him that he ignored my question as to his stand on the EC. Much later, I received another message from an assistant who said, “The movement does not place proper emphasis on theology, the doctrines of the faith, the great truths that have come down through the centuries.” Then he added, “We are not a party to or participant in the Emergent Church movement.” That is good to know, however Swindoll has recommended “Mother” Teresa, and some radical evangelicals such as Schuller!

Word of Life responded with, “We are not impressed with the emerging nor the emergent church due to the basis on postmodernism.” They recommend D.A. Carson’s book, Becoming Conversant with the Emerging Church .

An assistant at Crystal Cathedral wrote, “The Crystal Cathedral does not hold a stands (sic) on the issue you have brought to our attention. Please know that as we gather for prayer we will pray for you.” Of course, that is religious babble. Robert Schuller has taken a stand on the issue. He is part of the problem! He has compounded his sin of compromise with the sin of lying.

Charles Stanley’s representative told me that Stanley “has not taken a position for or against the EC.” That statement was, if not dishonest, at the least, devious and disingenuous. Stanley has recommend books by EC leaders without disclaimers.

Campus Crusade responded by saying, “We work with all kinds of churches so we would not have a position against any group.” I asked “What about Mormons, JW, etc.?” “Well, no, we don’t work with them.” She told me, “Our ministry is one of evangelism.” However, Christian preachers have far more responsibilities than that. Billy Graham used that on Larry King Live when he said, “My message is one of love.” That is an incomplete and innocuous message to preach. Who could get offended by that?
I did not get a reply from American Family Association (Don Wildmon), Jonathan Falwell, Back to the Bible, Jack Van Impe, Christian Working Woman, Beth Moore, or David Jeremiah.
I received a reply from Dr. James Dobson of Focus on the Family informing me via his top assistant that Dobson was at a mountain retreat writing a book about rearing girls. I responded to him thusly:

“You are absolutely correct in stating that churches and movements must ‘be measured by its adherence to and reverence for the Scriptures and its fidelity to an historic, orthodox understanding of the Christian faith. Deviance in that regard should always be cause for concern.’ I only wish that other groups would use that as their criteria.

“Using your own criteria, does Dr. Dobson agree with his wife’s assessment of Robert Schuller’s ministry when she said on his television program that he was doing a ‘good work’? Doesn’t Dr. Dobson know Schuller is a universalist? Was her statement only an off-the-cuff remark that most people make especially under the stress of a television or radio show or does she actually believe her statement? If so, does Dr. Dobson believe that?

“Since Schuller does not believe the New Birth is necessary to go to Heaven, how can Dr. Dobson use his endorsements and why would he declare that Schuller’s ‘message is still very Christian in nature’?  
“Furthermore does Dr. Dobson agree with his son’s statement that Rod Bell is ‘an exemplary man of God’ in light of the information I have included?” After many weeks, I have not received an answer.

I appreciate those who took a clear stand against the EC and am embarrassed that Christian ministries like Stanley, Dobson, Campus Crusade, Schuller, and others have chosen to huddle with the hares and hunt with the hounds. Each reader will make his or her own assessment as to the reason I received no response from Falwell, Christian Working Woman, Don Wildmon, David Jeremiah, Beth Moore, Van Impe, Back to the Bible and Concerned Women of America. If preachers had courage, character, commitment, and convictions they would provide better examples of biblical obedience to Christian laymen who support such ministries. Their supporters deserve better.
It’s time to decide: Will evangelical leaders huddle with the hares or hunt with the hounds—or attempt to do both? I have tried to be helpful to ministry leaders who are pressed for time to accomplish their tasks, but some are not willing to be helped or are so arrogant that they don’t recognize a need of help.
My philosophy has been "He who is honestly mistaken, when he hears or sees the truth, will either cease to be mistaken, or cease to be honest." Many leading ministries are on the wrong side of this issue. What a tragedy.

I own a copy of this limited, and rare book....2000 published in 1932
It shows documentation that "news" reporters were paid all during the "roaring" twenties to write favorable stories to "ballyhoo" stocks. Plummer brought two trunks of documents to Representative La Guardia who in turn presented them to the Senate Banking and Currency Committee.
One headline from N.Y. American dated April 27, 1932
"Writers Paid To Push Stocks Senators Told"
Excerpt:
"From 1925 to 1931 inclusive, 5,542 banks in this country closed their doors with losses of 3,662,177,736 to American bank depositors. This exceeds in both number of banks and liabilities the entire 32 years prior to 1925- that is from 1898 to 1924 inclusive when 5,264 failed with losses of 1,981,546,602. To think that 10,806 banks could go under through mismanagement, or any other cause, with total losses of 5,643,724,338 and but a handful of bankers go to jail is unbelievable. If they had all closed in one day it would have been dramatic but spread over 39 years apparently American citizens and lawmakers have blinked at the spectacle."
"All securities on Jan. 1, 1925, aggregated 63.6 Billions; rose to 138.9 Billions in 1929 (1930 for Bonds) and declined to 59.1 Billions May 1, 1932- a net loss of 79.8 Billions from the top.To state the value of securities depreciated 79.8 Billions from the peak of 1929 to the May 1, 1932, lows does not tell the entire story as staggering as it appears."
"Cold statistics do not, and can not, reveal the ruin of millions of individual investors, leaving bankrupts, broken homes, and suicides in it's path. But it helps to visualize the dollar damage brought about by the world's greatest gambling spree"

The book shows how, well before Operation Mockingbird, the press was well paid to broadcast lies, and played an important, an instrumental, role in fleecing the public by being the propaganda tool for Wall Street.
Excellent addition to the library of anyone who is interested in the financial deception of our history or the present time....

NEVER TICK OFF A NURSE

A big shot attorney had to spend a couple of days in the hospital. He was
a royal pain to the nurses because he bossed them around just like he did
his staff. None of the hospital staff wanted to have anything to do with
him.

The head nurse was the only one who could stand up to him. She came into
his room and announced, 'I have to take your temperature.' After
complaining for several minutes, he finally settled down, crossed his arms
and opened his mouth.

'No, I'm sorry,' the nurse stated, 'but for this reading, I can't use an
oral thermometer.' This started another round of complaining but
eventually he rolled over and bared his behind.

After feeling the nurse insert the thermometer, he heard her announce, 'I
have to get something. Now you stay JUST LIKE THAT until I get back!'

She left the door to his room open on her way out. He cursed under his
breath as he heard people walking past his door, laughing.

After a half hour, the man's doctor came into the room.

'What's going on here?' asked the doctor.

Angrily, the man answered, 'What's the matter, Doc? Haven't you ever seen
someone having their temperature taken?'

After a pause, the doctor confessed.....

'Not with a carnation.'

Drivers could have their speed controlled by satellite to stop them from breaking the limit following a Government trial of new technology.
Ah, but there are two problems with this.
The first is technology. The error in location for GPS various quite a bit (depending on the overhead satellite constellation). There will be times when the system cannot determine if the car is on the freeway or on the access road running right alongside it. This means that at some point a car driving on the freeway at 55 will suddenly slow to 35, much to the annoyance of the people following along behind.
Second, there are times when one has good reason to break the speed limit, such as getting a loved one to the hospital in a medical emergency, outrunning the waters from a dam burst, or escaping that meth head who has mistaken you for the guy who dropped a dime on him last week.

 They Thought They Were Free  The Germans, 1933-45  Excerpt from pages 166-73 of "They Thought They Were Free" First published in 1955  By Milton Mayer  But Then It Was Too Late  "What no one seemed to notice," said a colleague of mine, a philologist, "was the ever widening gap, after 1933, between the government and the people. Just think how very wide this gap was to begin with, here in Germany. And it became always wider. You know, it doesn’t make people close to their government to be told that this is a people’s government, a true democracy, or to be enrolled in civilian defense, or even to vote. All this has little, really nothing, to do with knowing one is governing.  "What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, little by little, to being governed by surprise; to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if the people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security. And their sense of identification with Hitler, their trust in him, made it easier to widen this gap and reassured those who would otherwise have worried about it.  "This separation of government from people, this widening of the gap, took place so gradually and so insensibly, each step disguised (perhaps not even intentionally) as a temporary emergency measure or associated with true patriotic allegiance or with real social purposes. And all the crises and reforms (real reforms, too) so occupied the people that they did not see the slow motion underneath, of the whole process of government growing remoter and remoter.  "You will understand me when I say that my Middle High German was my life. It was all I cared about. I was a scholar, a specialist. Then, suddenly, I was plunged into all the new activity, as the university was drawn into the new situation; meetings, conferences, interviews, ceremonies, and, above all, papers to be filled out, reports, bibliographies, lists, questionnaires. And on top of that were the demands in the community, the things in which one had to, was ‘expected to’ participate that had not been there or had not been important before. It was all rigmarole, of course, but it consumed all one’s energies, coming on top of the work one really wanted to do. You can see how easy it was, then, not to think about fundamental things. One had no time."  "Those," I said, "are the words of my friend the baker. ‘One had no time to think. There was so much going on.’"  "Your friend the baker was right," said my colleague. "The dictatorship, and the whole process of its coming into being, was above all diverting. It provided an excuse not to think for people who did not want to think anyway. I do not speak of your ‘little men,’ your baker and so on; I speak of my colleagues and myself, learned men, mind you. Most of us did not want to think about fundamental things and never had. There was no need to. Nazism gave us some dreadful, fundamental things to think about—we were decent people—and kept us so busy with continuous changes and ‘crises’ and so fascinated, yes, fascinated, by the machinations of the ‘national enemies,’ without and within, that we had no time to think about these dreadful things that were growing, little by little, all around us. Unconsciously, I suppose, we were grateful. Who wants to think?  "To live in this process is absolutely not to be able to notice it—please try to believe me—unless one has a much greater degree of political awareness, acuity, than most of us had ever had occasion to develop. Each step was so small, so inconsequential, so well explained or, on occasion, ‘regretted,’ that, unless one were detached from the whole process from the beginning, unless one understood what the whole thing was in principle, what all these ‘little measures’ that no ‘patriotic German’ could resent must some day lead to, one no more saw it developing from day to day than a farmer in his field sees the corn growing. One day it is over his head.  "How is this to be avoided, among ordinary men, even highly educated ordinary men? Frankly, I do not know. I do not see, even now. Many, many times since it all happened I have pondered that pair of great maxims, Principiis obsta and Finem respice—‘Resist the beginnings’ and ‘Consider the end.’ But one must foresee the end in order to resist, or even see, the beginnings. One must foresee the end clearly and certainly and how is this to be done, by ordinary men or even by extraordinary men? Things might have. And everyone counts on that might.  "Your ‘little men,’ your Nazi friends, were not against National Socialism in principle. Men like me, who were, are the greater offenders, not because we knew better (that would be too much to say) but because we sensed better. Pastor Niemöller spoke for the thousands and thousands of men like me when he spoke (too modestly of himself) and said that, when the Nazis attacked the Communists, he was a little uneasy, but, after all, he was not a Communist, and so he did nothing; and then they attacked the Socialists, and he was a little uneasier, but, still, he was not a Socialist, and he did nothing; and then the schools, the press, the Jews, and so on, and he was always uneasier, but still he did nothing. And then they attacked the Church, and he was a Churchman, and he did something—but then it was too late."  "Yes," I said.  "You see," my colleague went on, "one doesn’t see exactly where or how to move. Believe me, this is true. Each act, each occasion, is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join with you in resisting somehow. You don’t want to act, or even talk, alone; you don’t want to ‘go out of your way to make trouble.’ Why not?—Well, you are not in the habit of doing it. And it is not just fear, fear of standing alone, that restrains you; it is also genuine uncertainty.  "Uncertainty is a very important factor, and, instead of decreasing as time goes on, it grows. Outside, in the streets, in the general community, ‘everyone’ is happy. One hears no protest, and certainly sees none. You know, in France or Italy there would be slogans against the government painted on walls and fences; in Germany, outside the great cities, perhaps, there is not even this. In the university community, in your own community, you speak privately to your colleagues, some of whom certainly feel as you do; but what do they say? They say, ‘It’s not so bad’ or ‘You’re seeing things’ or ‘You’re an alarmist.’  "And you are an alarmist. You are saying that this must lead to this, and you can’t prove it. These are the beginnings, yes; but how do you know for sure when you don’t know the end, and how do you know, or even surmise, the end? On the one hand, your enemies, the law, the regime, the Party, intimidate you. On the other, your colleagues pooh-pooh you as pessimistic or even neurotic. You are left with your close friends, who are, naturally, people who have always thought as you have.  "But your friends are fewer now. Some have drifted off somewhere or submerged themselves in their work. You no longer see as many as you did at meetings or gatherings. Informal groups become smaller; attendance drops off in little organizations, and the organizations themselves wither. Now, in small gatherings of your oldest friends, you feel that you are talking to yourselves, that you are isolated from the reality of things. This weakens your confidence still further and serves as a further deterrent to—to what? It is clearer all the time that, if you are going to do anything, you must make an occasion to do it, and then you are obviously a troublemaker. So you wait, and you wait.  "But the one great shocking occasion, when tens or hundreds or thousands will join with you, never comes. That’s the difficulty. If the last and worst act of the whole regime had come immediately after the first and smallest, thousands, yes, millions would have been sufficiently shocked—if, let us say, the gassing of the Jews in ’43 had come immediately after the ‘German Firm’ stickers on the windows of non-Jewish shops in ’33. But of course this isn’t the way it happens. In between come all the hundreds of little steps, some of them imperceptible, each of them preparing you not to be shocked by the next. Step C is not so much worse than Step B, and, if you did not make a stand at Step B, why should you at Step C? And so on to Step D.  "And one day, too late, your principles, if you were ever sensible of them, all rush in upon you. The burden of self-deception has grown too heavy, and some minor incident, in my case my little boy, hardly more than a baby, saying ‘Jewish swine,’ collapses it all at once, and you see that everything, everything, has changed and changed completely under your nose. The world you live in—your nation, your people—is not the world you were born in at all. The forms are all there, all untouched, all reassuring, the houses, the shops, the jobs, the mealtimes, the visits, the concerts, the cinema, the holidays. But the spirit, which you never noticed because you made the lifelong mistake of identifying it with the forms, is changed. Now you live in a world of hate and fear, and the people who hate and fear do not even know it themselves; when everyone is transformed, no one is transformed. Now you live in a system which rules without responsibility even to God. The system itself could not have intended this in the beginning, but in order to sustain itself it was compelled to go all the way.  "You have gone almost all the way yourself. Life is a continuing process, a flow, not a succession of acts and events at all. It has flowed to a new level, carrying you with it, without any effort on your part. On this new level you live, you have been living more comfortably every day, with new morals, new principles. You have accepted things you would not have accepted five years ago, a year ago, things that your father, even in Germany, could not have imagined.  "Suddenly it all comes down, all at once. You see what you are, what you have done, or, more accurately, what you haven’t done (for that was all that was required of most of us: that we do nothing). You remember those early meetings of your department in the university when, if one had stood, others would have stood, perhaps, but no one stood. A small matter, a matter of hiring this man or that, and you hired this one rather than that. You remember everything now, and your heart breaks. Too late. You are compromised beyond repair.  "What then? You must then shoot yourself. A few did. Or ‘adjust’ your principles. Many tried, and some, I suppose, succeeded; not I, however. Or learn to live the rest of your life with your shame. This last is the nearest there is, under the circumstances, to heroism: shame. Many Germans became this poor kind of hero, many more, I think, than the world knows or cares to know."  I said nothing. I thought of nothing to say.  "I can tell you," my colleague went on, "of a man in Leipzig, a judge. He was not a Nazi, except nominally, but he certainly wasn’t an anti-Nazi. He was just—a judge. In ’42 or ’43, early ’43, I think it was, a Jew was tried before him in a case involving, but only incidentally, relations with an ‘Aryan’ woman. This was ‘race injury,’ something the Party was especially anxious to punish. In the case at bar, however, the judge had the power to convict the man of a ‘nonracial’ offense and send him to an ordinary prison for a very long term, thus saving him from Party ‘processing’ which would have meant concentration camp or, more probably, deportation and death. But the man was innocent of the ‘nonracial’ charge, in the judge’s opinion, and so, as an honorable judge, he acquitted him. Of course, the Party seized the Jew as soon as he left the courtroom."  "And the judge?"  "Yes, the judge. He could not get the case off his conscience—a case, mind you, in which he had acquitted an innocent man. He thought that he should have convicted him and saved him from the Party, but how could he have convicted an innocent man? The thing preyed on him more and more, and he had to talk about it, first to his family, then to his friends, and then to acquaintances. (That’s how I heard about it.) After the ’44 Putsch they arrested him. After that, I don’t know."  I said nothing.  "Once the war began," my colleague continued, "resistance, protest, criticism, complaint, all carried with them a multiplied likelihood of the greatest punishment. Mere lack of enthusiasm, or failure to show it in public, was ‘defeatism.’ You assumed that there were lists of those who would be ‘dealt with’ later, after the victory. Goebbels was very clever here, too. He continually promised a ‘victory orgy’ to ‘take care of’ those who thought that their ‘treasonable attitude’ had escaped notice. And he meant it; that was not just propaganda. And that was enough to put an end to all uncertainty.  "Once the war began, the government could do anything ‘necessary’ to win it; so it was with the ‘final solution of the Jewish problem,’ which the Nazis always talked about but never dared undertake, not even the Nazis, until war and its ‘necessities’ gave them the knowledge that they could get away with it. The people abroad who thought that war against Hitler would help the Jews were wrong. And the people in Germany who, once the war had begun, still thought of complaining, protesting, resisting, were betting on Germany’s losing the war. It was a long bet. Not many made it."  Copyright notice: Excerpt from pages 166-73 of They Thought They Were Free: The Germans, 1933-45 by Milton Mayer, published by the University of Chicago Press. ©1955, 1966 by the University of Chicago.

The truth is no evil action is justified by having a good end in mind. This is true for a nation, as it is for you as an individual. Intention does not detract from the gravity of committing a wrongful action. To accept commission of evil against other human beings for a supposed favorable end for other human beings is to defy ethics and morality completely. A recurrent example of this is of the United States' targeting civilians for some geopolitical "end" it wishes to achieve (resulting in the tragic death and suffering of millions). Whether during the invasions of sovereign nations (without congressional declaration of war), deliberate bombings of civilians during war, or covert operations worldwide in which civilians die for some advantage as perceived by our government - every instance assumes moral justification for the widespread death and destruction.

But it is Obama's surrender on the Iraq War front -- or rather, the anti-Iraq War front -- that is most striking, and most disheartening. On the very night that John McCain was putting the "success" of the surge at the center of his campaign, Obama was openly, cravenly laying down one of his chief weapons at the feet of Bill O'Reilly. Obama's cheerleading for the surge -- "beyond our wildest dreams!" -- surpassed anything that McCain himself has claimed for the escalation.

Former NY Judge Admits Providing Prostitutes for Pals
The New York Law Journal by Joel Stashenko - September 5, 2008

NEW YORK - Ronald H. Tills, a retired acting Supreme Court justice and Court of Claims judge, pleaded guilty yesterday in federal court in Buffalo to violating the federal Mann Act by transporting a prostitute across state lines. Mr. Tills, 73, admitted before Judge William Skretny of the Western District of New York that he recruited prostitutes to service members of a fraternal club, the Royal Order of Jesters, at gatherings in Pennsylvania, Florida, Kentucky and Ontario in 2005, 2006 and 2007. In his plea agreement with Western District U.S. Attorney Terrance P. Flynn, Mr. Tills also acknowledged arranging for women to attend a meeting of the Buffalo chapter of the Jesters in 2001 in Dunkirk, N.Y., to have sex with members of the club.

He faces from 27 months to 33 months in prison during sentencing, which Judge Skretny scheduled for Jan. 12. Mr. Tills' lawyer, Terrence M. Connors of Connors & Vilardo in Buffalo, said in an interview yesterday that Mr. Tills "accepted responsibility for his actions and admitted in court that he committed a crime, that his conduct was wrong and his judgment was horrible." Mr. Tills also agreed to aid in the prosecution of others involved in the procurement of prostitutes, a role that could earn him a shorter prison sentence, Mr. Connors said. Mr. Tills, of Hamburg, Erie County, was a judge from 1995 until his retirement in 2005. He resigned in March as part-time judicial hearing officer for the state as the FBI and U.S. Border Patrol agents investigated allegations of his involvement with prostitutes and the Jesters' organization, Mr. Connors said. Mr. Tills was also a Republican state assemblyman from 1969-77.

YouTube Bans Videos That Incite Violence

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/09/11/AR2008091103447.html

From the piece: "YouTube was being used by Islamist terrorist organizations to recruit and train followers via the Internet and to incite terrorist attacks around the world, including right here in the United States," Lieberman said in a statement.

If this is true, then wouldn’t the war on terror want to be able to go and see their plans that they are openly flaunting?

They are making it clear, here, that in the event of a national emergency, the children WILL be separated from the parents. People had better wake up, and do so quickly. In light of what I know about 9-11, it is very clear that any coming "national emergency" will likely be a creation of the powers that be. If the threat of not having access to your children does not wake you up to the powers that the Federal Government has taken from the people, then Bill Cooper was right, and the entire nation has turned into a bunch of damn sheep.

Interesting that these people are specifically called "anarchists", without any evidence whatsoever as to the political stand that these people take. Couldn't they just as easily be "Democrats", fed up with the Republican policies of the last several administrations? Couldn't they be "Republicans" dissatisfied with the choice of candidates? There is a reason that this term is being force fed to the Fox audience.

.“De-population should be the highest priority of US foreign policy towards the Third World.” This sentence formed the hard backbone of NSSM 200. The memo went on to state that “Reduction of the rate of population in these States [Third World nations] is a matter of vital US national security.” Why? Simply because “The US economy will require large and increasing amounts of minerals from abroad, especially from less developed countries.” In stating this the focus was exclusively, on the “…economic interests of the US.”

Picture in your mind for a moment the rough-and-tumble individualist who gave birth to this nation, a man who had tamed a wilderness, fought Indian wars on and off for 180 years, and successfully faced down the world’s mightiest empire. Hold a picture of that man in your head for a moment and then try to imagine him when he is told that this new federal government would have the authority to regulate his ownership of firearms in any manner it saw fit, including imprisoning him for possession of any firearm for any reason at any time.
No honest person could ever profess for even a second that the men who founded this nation would ever have submitted to such a thing, especially as, lacking any significant gun crime at the time, the only conceivable reason for such a federal power grab would be to lay the groundwork for enslaving the populace.

Americans and Zimbabweans are both troubled by rising prices and the devaluation of their money. The only difference between the two is the degree. Clearly, the economic situation in the United States has not reached the level that it has in Zimbabwe. But what assurance do we have that it won’t reach that level?
Zimbabwe’s dire economic situation is attributed to the actions of its government. Is it conceivable that the U.S. government is at the root of America’s economic problems? Could the parallels between the United States and Zimbabwe be more than coincidence? Is Zimbabwe’s present America’s future?

City Hall could easily spare the Violence Policy Center and the Shakespeare Theatre the hardship by striking the provision when it returns from summer recess. But that is as likely as Mayor Adrian Fenty testing the onerousness of his own bureaucracy and anti-gun logic by trying to buy and register a handgun. Indeed, the mayor is seemingly refusing to yield even to the Supreme Court when it comes to handgun rights. Mr. Fenty's response to the second lawsuit filed by Mr. Heller sounds as if the mayor was not even aware that the court had ruled in Mr. Heller's favor: "The Office of the Attorney General will vigorously defend the District's laws as reasonable regulations of firearms, and as the lawful action of the people's representatives, the Mayor and the Council."

There are major problems, however, with that position, at least from the standpoint of conscience. For one, there has been no attempt on the part of many Americans, especially through their elected representatives in Congress, to investigate whether the president and his associates knowingly and intentionally lied about the real reasons for invading Iraq. Instead, it is obvious that people just don’t want to know whether their federal officials lied or not. Wouldn’t a person struck by a crisis of conscience want to know the truth in order to deal with what he has wrought?

considering public health law reform in their states.
Legislative Status Update: Since its completion on December 21,
2001, the Centers has been tracking state legislative activity
related to MSEHPA. As of July 15, 2006, the Act has been introduced
in whole or part through 171 bills or resolutions in forty-four (44)
states, the District of Columbia, and the Northern Mariannas
Islands. Thirty-eight (38) states [AL, AK, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FL, GA,

When it comes to separatist movements, the American and Russian governments have no principles whatever. They take whatever side advances their political interests at the moment. When ethnic Albanians in Kosovo sought to break from Yugoslavia, the Russians sided with ally Serbia and opposed independence, but the United States backed the separatists and unleashed its bombers. Something similar happened when the Bosnians did the same thing. (The United States gave mixed signals when the Russians moved against separatists in Chechnya.) Yet when the Ossetians and Abkhazians want to be free of Georgia, the big-power roles are reversed.

Is this a "hidden" warning to us?

Who should MDs let die in a pandemic? Report offers answers
By LINDSEY TANNER, AP Medical Writer Mon May 5, 9:47 AM ET
CHICAGO - Doctors know some patients needing lifesaving care won't get
it in a flu pandemic or other disaster. The gut-wrenching dilemma will
be deciding who to let die.

Now, an influential group of physicians has drafted a grimly specific
list of recommendations for which patients wouldn't be treated. They
include the very elderly, seriously hurt trauma victims, severely burned
patients and those with severe dementia.

The suggested list was compiled by a task force whose members come from
prestigious universities, medical groups, the military and government
agencies. They include the Department of Homeland Security, the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Health and
Human Services.

The proposed guidelines are designed to be a blueprint for hospitals "so
that everybody will be thinking in the same way" when pandemic flu or
another widespread health care disaster hits, said Dr. Asha Devereaux.
She is a critical care specialist in San Diego and lead writer of the
task force report.

The idea is to try to make sure that scarce resources — including
ventilators, medicine and doctors and nurses — are used in a uniform,
objective way, task force members said.

Their recommendations appear in a report appearing Monday in the May
edition of Chest, the medical journal of the American College of Chest
Physicians.

"If a mass casualty critical care event were to occur tomorrow, many
people with clinical conditions that are survivable under usual health
care system conditions may have to forgo life-sustaining interventions
owing to deficiencies in supply or staffing," the report states.

To prepare, hospitals should designate a triage team with the Godlike
task of deciding who will and who won't get lifesaving care, the task
force wrote. Those out of luck are the people at high risk of death and
a slim chance of long-term survival. But the recommendations get much
more specific, and include:

_People older than 85.

_Those with severe trauma, which could include critical injuries from
car crashes and shootings.

_Severely burned patients older than 60.

_Those with severe mental impairment, which could include advanced
Alzheimer's disease.

_Those with a severe chronic disease, such as advanced heart failure,
lung disease or poorly controlled diabetes.

Dr. Kevin Yeskey, director of the preparedness and emergency operations
office at the Department of Health and Human Services, was on the task
force. He said the report would be among many the agency reviews as part
of preparedness efforts.

Public health law expert Lawrence Gostin of Georgetown University called
the report an important initiative but also "a political minefield and a
legal minefield."

The recommendations would probably violate federal laws against age
discrimination and disability discrimination, said Gostin, who was not
on the task force.

If followed to a tee, such rules could exclude care for the poorest,
most disadvantaged citizens who suffer disproportionately from chronic
disease and disability, he said. While health care rationing will be
necessary in a mass disaster, "there are some real ethical concerns here." James Bentley, a senior vice president at American Hospital Association,
said the report will give guidance to hospitals in shaping their own
preparedness plans even if they don't follow all the suggestions.

He said the proposals resemble a battlefield approach in which limited
health care resources are reserved for those most likely to survive.

Bentley said it's not the first time this type of approach has been
recommended for a catastrophic pandemic, but that "this is the most
detailed one I have seen from a professional group."

While the notion of rationing health care is unpleasant, the report
could help the public understand that it will be necessary, Bentley said.

Devereaux said compiling the list "was emotionally difficult for everyone."
That's partly because members believe it's just a matter of time before
such a health care disaster hits, she said.

"You never know," Devereaux said. "SARS took a lot of folks by surprise.
We didn't even know it existed."

(A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000

(C) Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171

Health Human Services

Guns:
(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000
(Yes, that's 80 million.)
(B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500
(C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .000188
Statistics courtesy of FBI

So, statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

(April 24, 2008), a New York Daily News editorial (page 40) offered this commentary:

"A Federal Appeals Court has ruled that former
Environmental Protection Agency Chief Christie
Whitman cannot be held liable for issuing patently
false assurances that the poisoned air around
Ground Zero was safe to breathe after 9/11.

So, more than seven years after failing to warn
rescue and recovery workers, she has beaten the rap...
the judges acknowledged evidence that White House
officials directed Whitman to avoid warning the
public about air-quality hazards--as well as
evidence that her aides were aware of the perils.

The failure by the U.S. government to come through
for citizens from across the country who stepped up
in a crisis and were hurt is what truly shocks the
conscience."

Two days after 9/11/2001, the Notmilk letter warned:

insulation. Crocidolite asbestos fibers are carcinogenic.
If you visit or live in Manhattan, use a face mask. Shower
frequently, and after each exposure, send your clothing to a
dry cleaner."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Three days after 9/11/2001, the Notmilk letter warned:

http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/notmilk/message/686

"...dust masks do not protect you from asbestos fibers.
...a dust mask does not stop those small particles."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
34 months after 9/11/2001 (July 9, 2004) Notmilk reported:

http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/notmilk/message/1704

"...more than half of the surviving police and fire department
personnel are on disability as a result of lung diseases
suffered during the ill-fated post-9/11 asbestos-filled days.
Over two thousand police and/or firefighters have filed
lawsuits against New York City for lung diseases and cancers
which they claim resulted from the fouled New York City
air that was supposedly safe to breathe."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When it comes to your own health, be informed. Do not
trust the government's opinion which is compromised
by political and financial conflicts of interest.

The government has failed to pay farmers the foreign currency component for wheat deliveries to the Grain Marketing Board (GMB) because of the critical hard currency shortage.
Farmers this week complained that, in addition to the delays by the GMB and the Reserve Bank to process their payments, the producer price of the crop, pegged at $72 million last year, is now almost worthless because of high inflation of more than 100 000 percent.
Originally, the Ministry of Agriculture had set the wheat producer price at $42 million per tonne, but the Reserve Bank later added a “bonus” which resulted in the payment rising to $72 million.

That figure is backed by a respected Canadian researcher who recently signed on as the firm's chief scientific adviser.
Las Vegas-based Arctic Oil & Gas has raised eyebrows around the world with its roll-of-the-dice bid to lock up exclusive rights to extract oil and gas from rapidly melting areas of the central Arctic Ocean, currently beyond the territorial control of Canada, Russia and other polar nations.
