Each of Us is Our Own Big Bang

The "big bang" theory basically says that everything came from nothing. Consciousness is sort of like that, I mean we all woke up one day and from then on have continued changing. What a love analogy if I may so myself. I do hope I get some comments and questions about this one.

Lazy Mainstream Media

KFOR - Strange monument mysteriously shows up in front of Paseo area restaurant
. Basically a concrete monument was placed in front of a restaurant in the arts district. The Creer Pipi claims the land in 2012 in the name of Azazoth The report is another example of poor journalism. A quick search on the internet would have explained that the monument referenced two things. "Creer Pipi" is French for "create piss" or pee. "Azathoth" is the name of a fictional a demon god and was created by H.P. Lovecraft.

Yahoo - Reuters - Corporate breaks at risk in U.S. plans to cut tax rates. Companies want to be treated as people (I am okay with that); but, want to have more deductions than people would be given. As a capitalist, for me, it is simple. If you want to treat corporations as people then tax them just like any other person. I personally am not in favor of tax deductions for any reason. Tax deductions are by definition anti-capitalist.

I have to interrupt myself. I received a lot of hits on this blog from people looking up Pastor Carol Daniels. It is the most read of any of my threads or posts. I have been blessed to have received correspondence from her family and other people who wanted me to know that they appreciated that I wrote about her. It is just past the anniversary of when she died and there does not appear that the police are any closer to finding her killer; but, we would never know if there was unless it was really clear information or there was an arrest. I sort of feel really bad that this blog is not about her, it was started before I even knew about what happened. This blog is really about economics and lies and fraud and destroying ourselves.

Sometimes I worry that people come here because of a particular issue (like Stephen Hawkings being a douche) and discover that there is no single topic and that the topic they came about is a rarity on this site. However you may have gotten here, don't expect consistency.

YouTube - Keiser Report: The Killing of Tony Blair (E489) (ft. George Galloway)

OffTheGridNews - Power Grid Down Drill To Be Conducted By US Government.

BBC - Miniature 'human brain' grown in lab. What a horrible idea, the idea of creating human brains, claiming they have no consciousness (as if we could define it) and then killing it. I know something that goes along with this idea.

A friend sent me a book. It is called "How the Irish Saved Civilization". I am Irish and like the title. In the book it talks about how the Irish were viewed by the English. I offer a quote from the book of an English historian"

"I am daunted by the human chimpanzees I saw along that hundred miles of horrible country. I don't believe they are our fault (referencing the way in which the English were allowing 1/4 of the population of Ireland to starve to death. I believer that there are not only many more of them than of old, but that they are happier, better and more comfortably fed and loddged under our rule than they ever were. But to see white chimpanzees is dreadful; if they were black, one would not feel it so much, but their skins, except where tanned by exposure, are as white as ours"

What is human? I was taught science. The species is defined by the genetics. You can get a sex change operation; but, you either have an x and y chormosome or you do not. Neither a sperm nor an egg are human until they unite and there genes are complete. If you create a being that has half of it's genes from a human and half from a pig, it is not a human. That does not mean that it is undeserving of being treated with respect. It also does not mean it has the same rights. The question is where the line is and the more important one is why would we try and blur that line by playing God with living beings genetics?

Obscure talk to be sure; but, let me try and get you closer. We can now take stem cells of cows and create hamburger. How would you know and would it matter if they had used human stem cells to create meant? They sold horse meat as cow meat in England. We should never think of another human as less than human and we should not believe animals are as important as humans and we should always remember that harming anything for the sake of harming it is wrong.

Distractions and Economics

The war machine is ramping up and for what real reason is unclear. Can you imagine Greece deciding to go to war with Syria out of humanitarian concern at this time. Lets face it, America is in just as much economic trouble. There is one difference, we make money by selling weapons. Currently, we are experiencing a weapons bubble. It is no different than the housing bubble or the stock bubbles and will end the same, it will burst. In fact, in the same way that the housing bubble was planned for, including its bursting, this bubble is planned for too.

It has been published that the President plans on removing our troops from both Iraq and Afghanistan next year. I bet that you also see us close more oversees bases. Civil wars will be good for business, we can sell to both sides in all the region. Remember that picture of McCain with the guy from Al-Qaeda?

Today the stock market dived and the pundits blamed it on the possible attack by us on Syria, heck, it should have gone up if that was the reason. In either case, this is a great time for Wall Street and others to steal you blind. Heck between Miley Cyrus grabbing other peoples private parts on national television and a possible Syrian war, there is more than enough entertainment in the news to get people to ignore the much more complex and impactful things going on.

Yahoo - AP - Calif city looks to seize loans to ease mortgages. Think about this article, cities that are having a hard time paying their bills are considering buying up mortgages through eminent domain. The claim is that these cities will buy homes that have $300,000 mortgages and are worth $200,000 will buy the properties for $150,000 and then sell them to the people living in them for $190,000. The same logic would allow cities to buy homes that have mortgages of $150,000 for $250,000 and then sell them back to the people living in them for $300,000. It is simply more accounting games.

Computerworld - Are Smartphones On Their Way Out?

Yahoo - Daily Ticker - The Trillion Dollar Crisis Facing the U.S.. I went to a seminar once, after the seminar I went to the hotel bar, there was a group of young turks that were there working on setting up a scheme for carbon trading. In Wall Street they talk about creating markets, that is basically finding a way to make money off what is already being sold. A good example is the aluminum market that is 80% controlled by JP Morgan, so the result is that the cost of aluminum goes up and it takes longer to get deliveries. The carbon trading market will basically tax every living thing, just for living. Carbon dioxide is not killing the planet, it is simply a lie.

Bloomberg - Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Ignoring Write-Offs, Report Says. Lets see if I have this right. Big banks gave out lots of bad loans and during the crisis and since, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were instructed, by the government, to buy the bad mortgages. Of course both Fannie and Freddie are government owned so the taxpayer bought the bad loans. Now, Fannie and Freddie are being asked to show their losses. What happens next? I know, I know, Fannie and Freddie will be privatized for their real value and the tax payer eats the losses while turning over all the assets to private banks that will reap the benefits as the properties appreciate.

Don't you find it funny that now that the housing market appears to have bottomed out (there will be another drop) suddenly everyone wants to buy up the properties.

NYSE and Nasdaq and Garbage

Recently, the NASDAQ lost it's computers for three hours. Oddly enough, later trades by the big boys were given a do over. Bad bets were not counted against them. But, nothing to fear, the SEC is getting involved and wants to know what happened. LOL.

Yahoo - Reuters - Exclusive: Nasdaq, NYSE at odds on outage cause as SEC seeks facts.

NYSE Euronext which is investigating what happened and is about to take over the setting of international interest rates (they are taking over LIBOR rate settings) cannot agree with NASDAQ over what caused the problems. I won't go into great detail over what happened, you can look it all up by researching the LIBOR scandal.

Have a Great Week and News (very little news)

Linda Ronstadt has stated she has Parkinson's and will never sing again. One of her first songs. YouTube - Linda Ronstadt - Long Long Time. I had always hoped to hear her sing torch songs again.

Yahoo - Reuters - Emerging market slump highlights Fed's global reach. The question is not if there is going to be a international financial crisis, there will be. The question is who will recover. My answer is bet on places that have something to sell. The emerging markets may take a short term hit; but, have something to allow them to recover. The United States makes nothing, we are going down.

Yahoo - AP - Churches changing bylaws after gay marriage ruling. This is stupidity being scared of stupidity that people agree with and none of it has anything to do with marriage. I could apply to the state to get a license to marry people. I will not do such a thing. I have been preaching for about 3 years now and do not intend to do any ceremonies. Marriage is not a ceremony. You do not need the governments permission or a preachers permission to be married and that is not the job of either. It is the misunderstanding of what marriage really is that is fooling these churches.

For the Christians out there, I have a simple question. What is marriage, not what is it not, what is it? Is marriage a government enforced contract, is it only a marriage if someone who claims to believe in God says it is? Pastors and churches do not authorize marriage and were never meant to. The ceremony was a statement before the community that one lived in that two people had chosen and agreed to live their lives together and take care of one another no matter what. That is marriage. These churches have a simple issue, they want to decide if someone is married or not and be the final arbitrator on government contracts regarding the issue. I have no such wish. They don't need to change their bylaws, stop telling people that they need your ceremony and approval to be considered married.

Yahoo - Daily Ticker - China Will Invest $1 Trillion Globally; How Much Will U.S. Get? I like my readers and try and get them to think beyond what we are told. We have a GDP of about 15 to 16 trillion a year. Basically, our net worth. We owe other countries about half of that, half of all we own and make. Think about that. Now what if they decide to spend those promises, those dollars, buying our hard assets, our land and our minerals? This article seems to imply that having the Chinese buy 1/16th of all our land and business is a good thing. They are concerned that the Chinese might spend our dollars in other countries. Truth is that in the end those other countries eventually end up buying our resources. The question is, who do we want to own us, the Chinese or Europe or Russian or whoever, we already sold our future.

Activist Post - DARPA Wants Portable Brain Recorders "In Every Classroom in America" by Julie Beal. They cannot read people's minds; but, if they can convince you that they can, would you allow them to arrest people for pre-crimes?

BBC - Exploring Los Angeles' forgotten stairways to the stars. Just for fun.

Rense - Jesse Marcel, Jr...Rest In Peace. Mr. Marcel's father worked at the Roswell airforce base. His father told the story of the Roswell "UFO". You can believe the story or not; but, his son was a veteran and never wavered in what he claimed to be the truth.

Yahoo - KFSN - Virtual reality treatment for autism. I want you to read the article and watch the video and think about what we are being told. Then scroll down till you see words again.


















































Okay, what did the last article and video really say. They said that autistic kids need to be able to read facial expressions better. What if people just told the truth, wouldn't that help the autistic? If people told the truth, their facial expressions would be meaningless. Blind people cannot respond to facial expressions, how is it that they are more worried about autistic people not recognizing when you lie with your expressions?

Pastor Carol Daniels Anniversary and Investigators

There is a lot of outrage and talk about how Manning and Snowden gave away U.S. secrets. As if the Russians and Chinese did not also already tap the internet or know that we did. The government is only now admitting that area 51 exists, yet, the Russians and Chinese have known for years. We keep secrets that are already known by our enemies. In fact, we spend more time keeping things from our own citizens than we do keeping secrets from those who might wish us ill.

Today, the anniversary of Pastor Daniels death, I had lots of hits on the post and did a search to see if there was anything new. I found an article that said the following: "The mother of an Oklahoma pastor who was killed in her church wants to know where her daughter's purse and briefcase have gone as the killing remains unsolved four". That is all I could copy and the article was changed to be a copy of other articles marking the anniversary. The actual article I can no longer access. Lets think about why.

I have never read that there were any missing items and now have reason to believe that she was robbed of both her purse and her briefcase. If true, I am pretty sure that the perpetrators knew what he took. He or she should assume that the police have known that from the beginning. According to the headline I read, Pastor Daniels mother told a reporter that her daughters belongings were taken; but, the article has disappeared.

It has been four years since Pastor Daniels passed away. We have been told there is no DNA evidence, that may or may not be true. I assume it is true for a variety of reasons. We have good reasons to believe that the killer entered and exited through the back door to the church and video evidence that such is true, at least according to news reports. The back door to the church was removed by police while the rest of the church was demolished. Should we assume that the back door had some evidence on it, could it be writing or pictures in blood? The Pastors autopsy is online and shows that she was killed with a sharp instrument, during the day and about 500 feet away from the Police Station. If you use the current Google Earth, you will discover that the back of the church where Pastor Daniels was killed could be seen from the Police Station. If you use it a little more, you can see that the back of the church could be seen from about 6 houses and a gas station, all within 500 feet or so.

Here is what I believe. Firstly, this was not a serial killer, there are no other examples of killings that are sufficiently similar. Secondly, this was not a robbery. Way too much preparation to rob someone who had no money of $20 bucks or whatever she had in her purse. If you are willing to kill someone for money and put in the amount of effort it took to kill Pastor Daniels then you could make a lot more money by killing a McDonalds teller.

Now lets talk about the briefcase. I preach and I never bring a briefcase. I bring my bible, wallet and keys. There are serial killers that keep souvenirs, BTK did as did the Zodiac killer. This is not a serial killer. If this killer kept the purse and briefcase, it was for a different reason, they wanted to see what was inside or have what was inside.

kswo - 4th Anniversary of Pastor Murder

news9 - Case Of Slain Pastor Unsolved After 4 Years.

Apparently, the OSBI has a new man assigned to cold cases. We can only pray that he can see beyond the mistakes that have been made so far. What was in the briefcase. We have been told that Pastor Daniels only had two people coming to her sermons on an irregular basis. Now we know that she helped others, the news report by the man who said she fed seven and got him a room for the nights says she was effecting more than just the two old people that alerted police to her death.

I do not mean to offend Pastor Daniels family ever. I found it odd that the Pastor brought a briefcase, I preach and never bring one. It also said she brought a purse, so what did she keep in the briefcase. I get buy with a wallet and keys and cigarettes. I cannot imagine bringing a backpack to church when I preach. The killer knew what was in the purse and the briefcase, the rest of us can never know the specifics; but, her family may have known what she kept in the briefcase. Again, not the specifics; but, at least why she had a briefcase.

I am quite convinced that the answer to this case is the motive. 6,000 people had the opportunity; but, few had a motive. Whoever had killed Pastor Daniels had been to the church before and knew the layout. It takes a lot of confidence to use a blade to kill someone 500 feet from a Police Station. It takes a lot of confidence to come prepared to leave through the back door of the same church covered in blood or having changed clothes in a car that is local down an alley or through multiple backyards in front of a gas station and police station. What was in the briefcase and why is that only, almost, coming out now. The killer knew what he took and what was on the backdoor.
