More than an oil spill -Disasters helped launch, and have reinvigorated, the environmental
movement, but not all such events are equal. James William Gibson May 11, 2010

Experts warn of Gulf oil spill's toxicity.
http://www.tampabay.com/news/environment/water/experts-warn-of-gulf-oil-spills-toxicity/1093346
Most of the public's attention has been focused on the harm it could do
to beaches, birds, fish and coastal wetlands. But there are questions
about how bad the oil could be for humans, too.  ~St. Petersburg Times, Florida

The meaning of the mess. http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1987397,00.html
More than two weeks after BP's Deepwater Horizon accident, no easy way
to close off the well has been found, and it has become clear that what
started as an oil spill has become an uncontrolled gusher with economic,
political and social consequences as far as the eye can see.  ~Time mag

One Case Against BP, Wall Street, and War
Peter Sutherland, chairman of BP's board for the past decade, had headed
Goldman Sachs International and, in the 1990s, was a director of the World
Trade Organization. The Goldman Sachs connection remains to be investigated,
but it appears Sutherland had a conflict of interest in his dual roles at BP
and the Wall Street giant. BP and Goldman were involved heavily in the 1990
and in 2000 in achieving deregulation of energy futures trades from the
previous oversight of the Commodities Futures and Exchange Commission
(CFTC). As most crude oil fut...

Oil spill: US failing to tighten ecological oversight, say activists.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/may/09/oil-spill-ecological-review-environment
The Obama administration waived environmental reviews for 26 new
offshore drilling projects even as the BP oil disaster spewed hundreds
of thousands of gallons of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico, environmental activists said today.

Underground "fossil water" running out.
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2010/05/100505-fossil-water-radioactive-science-environment
In the world's driest places, "fossil water" is becoming as valuable as fossil fuel, experts say.
This ancient freshwater was created eons ago and trapped underground in huge reservoirs, or aquifers.

Ron Paul: Euro Bailout Will Lead To Currency Collapse
Congressman: Bernanke broke promise that U.S. taxpayer dollars would not be sent to European banks
As Europe is bailed out to the tune of nearly $1 trillion dollars, Congressman Ron Paul warns that the constant monetization of debt, allied with taxpayer-funded bailouts, will inevitably lead to runaway inflation and the collapse of paper currencies.

Protestors argue that they are being made to pay for a crisis they did not cause,
and which wealthy speculators are still profiting from.

Will Americans Cry Like Greeks     OR
Will Americans protest & defend against the predatory hedge funds and zombie
banks, by putting some of the operatives in jail, or allow the criminal wolf
packs to attack and destroy the debt of sovereign states, while simply
crying about such (which would more or less bring the system of modern
states to an end, and civilization with it)

EU Is Collapsing Like Tower Of Babel
But World Bank and IMF vultures are lying in wait to feed on the remains of Greece
Monument Securities Chief Economist Stephen Lewis says the chaos in Greece could lead to collapse of the European Union, bringing down with it the dangerous assumption that structures of global governance provide stability in times of financial peril, but the World Bank and IMF vultures will be waiting as ever to feed on the remains of a dying country.

Tea Party Clueless About U.S. Tax Dollars Funding Bailout Heist
Silence from anti-tax movement on bailouts is deafening - and dangerous
As CNBC hosts Joe Kerne and Rick Santelli pointed out yesterday, the Tea Party movement seems largely clueless about the fact that a huge chunk of the $1 trillion dollar bailout heist being pushed through to save the face of global economic governance is being funded with dollars looted from American taxpayers.

"Banging" the U.S. Stock Market
If you want to manipulate a market, deregulate it as much as possible. Then 
make it as "dark," and fast as possible. Make it hard for outsiders to view 
your trades as they get done, and make it even harder for anyone to figure 
out why you are trading. Get as much monopoly power as possible over the 
market. Get funding at the cheapest possible rate. The best possible rate is 
the near zero cost funding available from the Federal Reserve. Next, get 
your "men" stationed in the most influential positions at the exchanges.  Make ...

President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan is perfect in every way – perfect that is if you think the role of the highest judicial body in the United States is to ban free speech, indefinitely detain Americans without trial, resurrect command and control socialism, while urinating on everything the Constitution stands for.

Thu May 13 An Introduction to The Art of Sensual Restraint - A FREE Workshop - Rope leads to surrender, surrender to intimacy.
Rope bondage is a dance -- one person leads, the other follows, one person commands, the other surrenders. It is a simple, tangible and beautiful way to hold someone and to let yourself be fully and completely held.
Join us for this evening of fun and exploration as we teach you how to use rope to create heat and connection (whether tying or being tied) between you and your partner.
You’ll learn: • The basic ingredients of a good tie • How to tie with connection
• How to safely let yourself be handled and held • The 3 keys to power exchange
Bring a friend (not required) and bring some rope if you have it — one piece 25’ or more is sufficient. There will be extra rope on hand (but we can’t guarantee there will be extra friends).
7:00pm - 9:00pm Thursday May 13 115 10th St, SF (near Mission St) Cost: FREE Rope: Provided
Attire: Comfortable, form fitting clothing, nudity not required (but not discouraged either).
Rope is the medium, connection is the message — let us show you how to deliver and receive with precision and care!

http://www.facebook.com/l/7eba6;www.americanfreepress.net/html/bilderberg_found_217.html
We are planning to go with a few activists from Belgium, and now we are looking for other activists who can help us find a place to sleep between 01/06 and 09/06, all help is welcome, we don't ask much, just a dry place to sleep, we will be coming with three of four persons, and our intentions are to interview Daniel Estuling & Jim Tucker, and I'm sure there are many other interesting people to connect with..
We hope to hear from you guys? It's the time to help one another, together we stand, divided we fall...
The more people who are interested in a collective action, please let us know, for we all need each other to stand together..
You can contact me about this here on Facebook, but you can also mail me about this on gerry@belfort-http://www.facebook.com/l/7eba6;group.eu or you can contact me on Skype under the name Gerry Nelissen or FreedomFighter2012..

June 19 Please Don't Melt Grandma's Ring (san rafael) Don't melt jewelry that may have more value than the gold. Anybody with a tester, a calculator and a checkbook can offer so many dollars a gram. My name is Hank Friedman and my expertise is in Antique and Estate Jewelry, Rolex, Patek Philippe and other fine wristwatches and Pocket Watches. I was trained by the GIA to grade diamonds and always need diamonds of 2 Carats or better. I especially need older cuts. I'm not in in the scrap business. I buy Fine Jewelry and Watches, Silver Sets, Big Diamonds & Signed Pieces (ie Tiffany,Cartier and many others). I need steel Rolex sport watches made before 1975. I need fine Jade and great Russian pieces. Some silver sets with signatures like Georg Jensen are in high demand. Please don't melt your treasures. Let's talk.
My ongoing class in How To Make Profit Finding Hidden Gold (a gold buying primer) at College of Marin (Kentfield) is scheduled for Sat June 19th 9-1. Sign up opens May 17. We have fun and everyone learns the skill of identifying and evaluating gold, silver & platinum in a 4 hour workshop, Put it on your calendar. The class is limited to 35 folks. Bring a piece and I'll help you determine value. My first book "The Urban Gold Miner" and a jeweler's magnifier is included. My new book "The Gold Buyer's Handbook" ($29 Hivista Press) is aimed toward professionals and serious hobbyists and will be out soon.

Crash Course Chapter 3: Exponential Growth Chapter 4: Compounding Is The Problem are you prepared?
http://chrismartenson.com/crashcourse
If you only watch one chapter, start with chapter 16: fuzzy numbers

"In Germany back in 1923, a man put all the money he had into a wheelbarrow and headed to the store to buy a loaf of bread. But when he got there, the store was closed. He left his wheelbarrow outside the door, figuring he'd come back when the store opened, knowing the money in it wasn't worth enough for anyone to bother stealing. He was right. When he came back, all the money was still there, dumped on the ground, but someone had stolen his wheelbarrow."

Next came gun registration. People were getting injured by guns. Hitler said that the real way to catch criminals (we still had a few) was by matching serial numbers on guns. Most citizens were law abiding and dutifully marched to the police station to register their firearms. Not long after-wards, the police said that it was best for everyone to turn in their guns. The authorities already knew who had them, so it was futile not to comply voluntarily. No more freedom of speech. Anyone who said something against the government was taken away. We knew many people who were arrested, not only Jews, but also priests and ministers who spoke up.

GUN CONTROL WORKS ask the experts: Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao Tse-Tung, Idi Amin, Kim Jong-il, Qaddafi

Washington didn't use his right to free speech to defeat the British, he shot them.
Most often when a government takes a peoples guns, it then takes their land or their lives.
