				<outline text="CNN host Carol Costello could only stand so much anti-gay rhetoric this morning. After allowing American Family Association spokesman Bryan Fischer to claim that Adolf Hitler's Nazi Stormtroopers were largely comprised of gay men and that there are documented health risks to homosexuality, Costello threw the outspoken anti-gay advocate off her program, ending the interview abruptly."/>

				<outline text="For the first half of the discussion, Fischer criticized the Southern Poverty Law Center's new ''Mix It Up at Lunch Day'' initiative that seeks to promote tolerance in school lunchrooms and reduce bullying. Naturally, the AFA is protesting the initative, claiming that it seeks to force students ''to accept homosexuality as a normal, healthy alternative to heterosexuality.''"/>

				<outline text="He went on to call the program deceptively ''toxic'' to the ''moral health'' of students, much like ''poisoned Halloween candy'' injected with cyanide. ''The label looks fine, it looks innocuous, but once you internalize it you realize how toxic it is.''"/>

				<outline text="After some back and forth over whether his views constitute ''hate speech,'' Costello read aloud a passage from a previous radio interview Fischer had conducted, in which he said:"/>

				<outline text="''Hitler recruited homosexuals around him to make up his Stormtroopers. They were his enforcers. He discovered he could not get straight soldiers to carry out his orders but homosexual soldiers had no limit to the savagery and brutality Hitler sent them after.''"/>

				<outline text="''That spells agenda to me,'' remarked Costello, adding that by most people's standards this would constitute ''hate speech.''"/>

				<outline text="Fischer encouraged Costello to read a particular German history book that supposedly corroborates his claims, but Costello dismissed him, adding that ''I think most historians would take issue with that.''"/>

				<outline text="The anti-gay activist then attempted to call the Southern Poverty Law Center the real ''bullying group,'' claiming that ''they're the ones that want to silence any view that would criticize the normalization of homosexual behavior.''"/>

				<outline text="But as soon as Fischer began to spout off supposed health risks to homosexuality, Costello abruptly cut him off and ended the interview."/>

				<outline text="''That's just not true,'' she said. ''I'm going to end this interview now, sir, because that's not true.''"/>

			<outline text="(Clockwise from top left) Snippy Willard, Drivetime Radio Mitt, Lofty Willard, Trade-War Willard, Zany Improv Willard, the Real Willard, Ass-Kicked Willard, and Dickhead Willard, the ones we know and love."/>

			<outline text="HEMPSTEAD, New York '-- Those of us who lived under the barely distinguishable leadership of Willard Romney in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (God save it!) know very well that the emotional membrane separating Lofty Willard from Snippy Willard is thin indeed, and that the membrane separating Snippy Willard from Dickhead Willard is well-nigh translucent. Both of those membranes were tested fully here on Tuesday night by the president, by Candy Crowley '-- who has clearly had enough of your bullshit, thank you very much '-- and by the simple fact that certain members of The Help tested the challenger's ideas and found them wanting and, my dear young man, that simply is not done. And both of those membranes failed like rotting levees in a storm."/>

			<outline text="Before I arrived to Hofstra on Tuesday, I thought that, given the roll he's been on, Romney would be able to keep both Snippy Willard and Dickhead Willard in check. I had no doubt that, because the nature of the event required that he mingle with actual carbon-based life forms, we undoubtedly would see English-as-a-Second-Language Willard. And we did. (&quot;Binders full of women&quot;?) And, because at least some of the questions were likely to be wild cards, there was a better than even chance that Zany Improv Willard would put in an appearance, as he did on the very first question of the night, when he told a young man named Jeremy that, &quot;I want to make sure we keep our Pell Grant program going,&quot; when, in fact, one of the under-appreciated consequences of the overall zombie-eyed granny-starving onto which he signed when he picked his running mate is the fact that his running mate's &quot;budget&quot; would utterly devastate... wait for it... Pell Grants!"/>

			<outline text="(I have to admit it: When the president let that fat, hanging curveball go by, I thought he was in for another long evening.)"/>

			<outline text="But not even I expected Romney to let his entitled, Lord-of-the-Manor freak flag fly as proudly as he did on Tuesday night. He got in the president's face. He got in Crowley's face. That moment when he was hectoring the president about the president's pension made him look like someone to whom the valet has brought the wrong Mercedes. "/>

			<outline text="&quot;You'll get your chance in a moment. I'm still speaking.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Wow. To me, this was a revelatory, epochal moment. It was a look at the real Willard Romney, the Bain cutthroat who could get rich ruining lives and not lose a moment's sleep. But those people are merely the anonymous Help. The guy he was speaking to on Tuesday night is a man of considerable international influence. Outside of street protestors, and that Iraqi guy who threw a shoe at George W. Bush, I have never seen a more lucid example of manifest public disrespect for a sitting president than the hair-curling contempt with which Romney invested those words. (I've certainly never seen one from another candidate.) He's lucky Barack Obama prizes cool over everything else. LBJ would have taken out his heart with a pair of salad tongs and Harry Truman would have bitten off his nose."/>

			<outline text="And Romney bitched endlessly '-- endlessly '-- about the rules, and why this uppity fellow on the other stool was allowed to speak before he was spoken to, and why he didn't get to speak at length on whatever he wanted to speak on because, after all, he is the CEO of the stage. Jesus Christ, I'd hate to play golf with the man. He's the guy who counts to make sure you don't have too many wedges in your bag. He knows every cheap subsection of every cheap ground rule, and he'll call you on every one of them. You couldn't get a free drop out of him with thumbscrews, and forget about conceding any putt outside two inches. And then, on the 18th hole, with all the money on the line, he kicks his ball out of the rough and denies up and down to the rules committee that he did it. Then he goes into the clubhouse bar and nobody sits with him."/>

			<outline text="At this point, it is probably futile to mention that, had the president treated the first debate the way he did the second debate, we'd all be able to take the next couple of weeks off. The president was sharp on Tuesday night. (How sharp? When Romney got a chin-music question about how he differed from George W. Bush, the president put an even more wicked spin on it by congratulating Bush for his relatively progressive positions on Planned Parenthood and immigration reform and highlighting how far to the &quot;extreme place&quot; to which Romney has had to move on both those issues to keep his unhinged base from roasting him on a spit. That was high-wire politics and, and the president pulled it off without a bobble.) And the president was certainly engaged, and he was all the things he wasn't remotely close to being in Denver. The whole Libya &quot;acts of terror&quot; byplay, with Crowley herself fact-checking Romney on the fly and getting such a look in reply is going to get most of the run but, to me, the real sharp end of that exchange came when Romney got a bit snarky about the president's attending &quot;a political fundraiser in Las Vegas&quot; the day after the attacks, and got this back in the chops in return:"/>

			<outline text="&quot;The day after the attack, governor, I stood in the Rose Garden and I told the American people and the world that we are going to to find out exactly what happened. That this was an act of terror and I also said that we're going to hunt down those who committed this crime. And then a few days later, I was there greeting the caskets coming into Andrews Air Force Base and grieving with their families. And the suggestion that anyone on my team would play politics or mislead when we've lost four of our own, governor, is offensive. That's not what we do. That's not what I do as president. That's not what I do as commander-in-chief.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Leave aside the stupid quibbling about whether calling something an &quot;act of terror&quot; is the same thing as calling it a &quot;terrorist act,&quot; as if what we call something makes a damn bit of difference to the dead. That was a moment of authentic anger, the kind of thing we never have seen from this president before. It was just inches away from &quot;Have you at long last no shame, governor?&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;That's him when he gets mad,&quot; Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick, who knows the president as well as anyone outside the immediate circle of the White House, told me here in the spin room after the debate. &quot;That was real. Those were his people.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Not only did Romney look like a presumptuous, malinformed jackass, but the president looked like he filled out his entire office for the first time in a couple of weeks."/>

			<outline text="Because, when you come right down to it, asses were kicked on Tuesday night, but not decisively. The president did a good job forcing Romney to think on his feet '-- look out below! '-- especially when they were both talking about gun control and Romney got asked about the Massachusetts assault weapon ban he'd signed when he was governor, and he went off on a ramble about bipartisanship and &quot;hunting opportunities,&quot; and the president reminded him that Romney had said quite honestly that he'd abandoned that considerable achievement in order to curry favor with the NRA. But the real conclusion as regards the actual election that may have happened is that the rising Romney momentum was blunted. The one thing nobody can ever say now is that they didn't know the exact character of Willard Romney, and exactly how he feels about The Help, including that member of The Help who currently holds the job that Romney believes should have been his by virtue of his god-kissed, golden life."/>

			<outline text="&quot;You'll get your chance in a moment. I'm still speaking.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Put all those Romneys together and that's what they sound like, even when they're talking to the president of the United States. It's the voice of the bloodless job-killer, the outsourcing Moloch of the industrial midwest, and the guy who poses with his Wall Street cronies with dollar bills in his mouth. People who claim to be interested in &quot;character&quot; should remember that."/>

			<outline text="It seems as though no one reads the Census Bureau's annual publication &quot;Income, Poverty, and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States&quot; for anything but the number of people in poverty. The parts I find most interesting are those pertaining to the level and distribution of income. The numbers go to the heart of conversations about the &quot;middle class&quot; and the &quot;rich.&quot;"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Both President Barack Obama and Gov. Mitt Romney have adopted household income of $250,000 as a meaningful demarcation point for defining the middle class. In the case of the president, he proposes to retain the Bush tax cuts for households with less than $250,000 and eliminate the tax cuts for those above that threshold. Romney, in a recent ABC interview, offered the same definition of the middle class: &quot;Middle income is $200,000 to $250,000 and less.&quot;"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Where does this concept of $250,000 as the appropriate cutoff come from? According to the data in the Census Bureau report shown in Table 1 below, which presents the thresholds for being in different parts of the income distribution, the median household in 2011 had an income of $50,054. A household with an income of $143,611 was at the 90th percentile point, or in the top 10th of the income distribution. A household with an income of $186,000 was at the 95th percentile, or in the top 5%. The table does not even show households with $250,000, but they must be in the top 97th or 98th percentile."/>

			<outline text="Source: U.S. Census Bureau, &quot;Income, Poverty, and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States: 2011.&quot; Table A-2."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="The thresholds must be interpreted with caution, because households include old and young, urban and rural, coastal and midland, and small and large. But it is very hard to understand how anyone could think of $250,000 as the middle. It seems as if both candidates have a mental picture of the very rich and everyone else."/>

			<outline text="The &quot;very-rich-vs.-every'&amp;#139;one-else&quot; framework may come from data on the share of income earned by various households. Here the census data show that those in the top quintile -- the highest-earning 20% -- earn more than the bottom four quintiles combined (see Table 2). That is, the top 20% receives more income than the bottom 80%."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Table 2. Shares of Household Income by Quintile, 2011"/>

			<outline text="Quintile"/>

			<outline text="Share"/>

			<outline text="Lowest quintile"/>

			<outline text="Source: U.S. Census Bureau, &quot;Income, Poverty, and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States: 2011.&quot; Table A-2."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="And a recent study by economist Emmanuel Saez shows that within the top quintile the distribution is also very skewed, so that the top 1% receives about 20% of total income."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Thus, while the $250,000 threshold makes no sense in describing the middle class, it seems like a relevant divide for defining where the money is. Nevertheless, dividing the nation's households into the &quot;wealthy&quot; and &quot;the middle class&quot; doesn't seem like a useful exercise. It pits the majority of Americans against the top 1% or 2%."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="It suggests that the majority of Americans should not be called upon to solve the nation's fiscal problems. It violates the notion that we are all in this together. Yes, the rich can contribute more, but we can all contribute something."/>

			<outline text="Climate change ... disintegrating iceberg near west Greenland. Photograph:  Jenny E Ross/Corbis"/>

			<outline text="&quot;Guys, the ice caps are melting now,&quot; wrote Chris Ross in the  Guardian Review last year. &quot;Where are those stories?&quot;"/>

			<outline text="The review's subject was a collection of short stories, I'm With the Bears, all on the issue of climate change. It featured good writing '' from the likes of Margaret Atwood and Lydia Millet '' but, as Ross put it, &quot;much of this material seems to have been lifted from the wastebasket.&quot; Why was no one writing fresh fiction about it?"/>

			<outline text="One year on, the question still stands. &quot;In spite of the stakes,&quot; said Andrew Simms on the Guardian's environment blog the other day, &quot;the issue has receded from the political frontline like a wave shrinking down a beach.&quot; It seems that the wave never quite reached our beach '' the beach of fiction writing '' in the first place."/>

			<outline text="Sure, there was Solar. Ian McEwan's 2010 satire of a balding, overweight scientist with marriage problems explicitly focused on &quot;the most pressing and complex problem of our time&quot;. That's the one everyone could probably mention. But after that? There was mainly silence (if you leave aside poetry, where much more seems to be going on, most notably, perhaps, Tom Chivers' ADRIFT project)."/>

			<outline text="There's apocalyptic fiction, of course, and you could, I suppose, connect a novel such as Margaret Atwood's The Year of the Flood to climate change. But is this type of literature really concerned with the issue, or does a vaguely related scenario merely serve as a purpose for other themes and situations? (Also, as environmentalists are increasingly keen to point out, climate change isn't really about the end of the world at all; it's about living conditions becoming harder and harder as we go along.)"/>

			<outline text="Yes, Jonathan Franzen's Freedom (2010) touched on the issue (the &quot;greener than Greenpeace&quot; Walter is deeply worried about it), and one could stretch things by considering books such as Joe Dunthorne's Wild Abandon (2011), which is interested in low-carbon living. A number of childrens' books are on-topic, too. In Saci Lloyd's The Carbon Diaries 2015 (2008), for example, the UK has become the first nation to introduce carbon dioxide rationing. But the kids are alright, really: many are getting climate change much better than the grown-ups do (and, naturally, they're much more worried about it)."/>

			<outline text="No, it's we adults who are failing to have this conversation. It's an unpleasant conversation to have, no doubt about it '' and maybe that's why it's not really taking place in fiction, at least not centre-stage. Many novels vaguely reference the situation; sentences such as &quot;in a warming world&quot; or &quot;in these times of climate change&quot; are common in much of what's being published at the moment. But that's about it."/>

			<outline text="As such, the portrayal of climate change in fiction might actually be a pretty accurate reflection of what's going on in the real world. We know about it, and we know it's a pretty damn serious problem, but engage with it directly? Maybe tomorrow. Maybe the day after tomorrow. Isn't someone else looking into it? We don't want to have this conversation, it seems; and neither do most characters in most novels being published."/>

			<outline text="It's probably also true that climate change is far too complex an issue to write a definitive novel about. But is it too complex an issue for fiction writers to make a contribution? To write not so much a definitive novel about it, but one of many complementary ones? My own attempt at this, From Here (2012), tells the story of a group of ordinary people (a supermarket cashier, an ex-banker, a hipster girl), who've come together in an unlikely alliance '' realising how this one issue touches them all to the core. It's full of the contradictions surrounding climate change, and the confusion many people (even those actively involved) feel around it. Telling people that I was working on a story that tackles the issue head-on, and with a clear stance on it, the response I often got was: are you sure? Which, more than once, probably meant: are you completely out of your mind?"/>

			<outline text="There's a school of thought that says novels shouldn't (even can't) be about a very current issue. One could reply that climate change isn't very current in that sense '' it didn't start yesterday, and it will be with us for a long, long time '' but I won't, because our response to it (or lack thereof) is as current as it gets. But ought that really to prevent us from writing about it?"/>

			<outline text="Zadie Smith beautifully described the dangers of writing fiction that's grounded in the now in a recent Guardian podcast. People tend to find their own time &quot;uninteresting, vulgar and stupid,&quot; she said, and they will constantly accuse you of &quot;shallowness, because there's a sense that literature must be timeless&quot;. And yet, the novels that &quot;end up being important to people are the ones which in some way express their time&quot; '' provided you're not simply producing a &quot;springboard to talk about whatever is in the news.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="It's definitely a fine line, but we need to have this conversation, and I refuse to accept that I'm the only one who believes that fiction can make a massive contribution to it. Novels are about human beings, and it's one of their great strengths that they can be as open and honest as they wish '' about our errors and failures, about our confusions, but also about our deepest wishes and hopes. That's why they have the power to cut through many of the things that make our coming-to-terms with climate change so hard on a strictly factual level."/>

			<outline text="What is our fiction, if it's shying away from &quot;the most pressing and complex problem of our time&quot;? What is our fiction, if all we really strive for is to make some universal statement on humankind, avoiding the messiness that's the here and now? What is our fiction if, wanting to be timeless, we forget our own times? So, I'm putting this as a question, but also as a provocation: Where are those stories?"/>

			<outline text="Mastercard is the latest company to hit the headlines for its plans to mine customers data for insights that can be sold on."/>

			<outline text="If this data has value, then it should be up to Mastercard to ask customers for permission to use their information and offer consumers something in return. Whether health records, shopping habits or geolocation data, the consumer should be in control and it is a retrograde step for privacy when companies decide that it is they, not the people who are actually generating the data, should decide what happens to it."/>

			<outline text="Instead they are treating details of our personal behaviour like their own property to be bundled up and sold on without any regard to what customers might want."/>

			<outline text="Have Mastercard made any effort to seek customer's consent for processing their shopping habits and selling it on? How do consumers opt out? It's exactly this kind of behaviour that leads consumers to question whether companies are more interested in their own profit than respecting people's privacy."/>

			<outline text="The fall of Lance Armstrong needs to be understood not merely as the self destruction of one man, but as a betrayal of one of the most powerful and important fables of our time. Lance Armstrong taught us that a simple man, if dedicated to hard work, high integrity and the admirable pursuit of greatness, could achieve overwhelming victories against all odds. The mythology of Armstrong taught us that greatness is earned, not merely granted, and that there are no shortcuts to achieving the things that really matter in life."/>

			<outline text="But Lance Armstrong, we now know, was a cheat. A liar. A false prophet. He injected his body with banned, illegal substances. He intimidated and threatened teammates into silence. He bullied critics and even lied to his own sponsors (like NIKE) to keep the cash flowing into his own pockets. While presenting a public face of honesty, integrity and hard work, Lance Armstrong was cheating his way to victories he never deserved'... and then he lied about it year after year, race after race, insulting not merely his millions of fans but the reputation of the entire sport of cycling."/>

			<outline text="Lance Armstrong, in other words, claimed to be a man of greatness and achievement but was secretly cheating his way to the finish line every single time. He betrayed the very belief system that he publicly claimed to espouse. He violated not just his own body with doping chemicals; he violated the public trust in a story of personal achievement that simply turned out to be too good to be true."/>

			<outline text="Massive evidence is conclusive: Lance Armstrong is a liar and a cheat"/>

			<outline text="There is no question that Lance Armstrong is a confirmed liar of almost unbelievable magnitude. The evidence against him is overwhelming. Over two dozen of his former teammates testified against him, and USADA is releasing more evidence with each passing day. As USADA writes on its website:"/>

			<outline text="The evidence of the US Postal Service Pro Cycling Team-run scheme is overwhelming and is in excess of 1000 pages, and includes sworn testimony from 26 people, including 15 riders with knowledge of the US Postal Service Team (USPS Team) and its participants' doping activities. The evidence also includes direct documentary evidence including financial payments, emails, scientific data and laboratory test results that further prove the use, possession and distribution of performance enhancing drugs by Lance Armstrong and confirm the disappointing truth about the deceptive activities of the USPS Team, a team that received tens of millions of American taxpayer dollars in funding."/>

			<outline text="Together these different categories of eyewitness, documentary, first-hand, scientific, direct and circumstantial evidence reveal conclusive and undeniable proof that brings to the light of day for the first time this systemic, sustained and highly professionalized team-run doping conspiracy."/>

			<outline text="A d v e r t i s e m e n tIf you want to see the stunning magnitude of evidence against Lance Armstrong, take a look at this report from USADA."/>

			<outline text="Here's a small taste of what's being published about Lance Armstrong right now across the 'net:"/>

			<outline text="Lance Armstrong is ''the greatest fraud in American sports.'' - Yahoo Sports"/>

			<outline text="''Lance Armstrong's reputation lies in tatters after the United States Anti-Doping Agency labelled him a 'serial' cheat who led 'the most sophisticated, professionalised and successful doping programme that sport has ever seen'.'' - the BBC"/>

			<outline text="''USADA's report on Lance Armstrong has opened the flood gates for humiliating instances for the disgraced star. Lance Armstrong was branded as a serial cheat by USADA after stripping him off his Tour de France titles. USADA report, an anthology of evidence of Armstrong's doping habits was compiled with the help of the statements from the star's former colleagues.'' -Sports Bulletin"/>

			<outline text="''Levi Leipheimer, one of the 11 former colleagues who gave evidence against Lance Armstrong, has been sacked by his team, Omega Pharma-QuickStep. In another development on Tuesday, International Olympic Committee vice-president Thomas Bach called for Armstrong to make a full admission of his doping history.'' - The Telegraph"/>

			<outline text="''The United States Anti-Doping agency's report, which amounted to a damning depiction of Armstrong as a main conspirator in a vast doping scheme, contended that Armstrong repeatedly lied under oath. The antidoping agency said it found Armstrong committed perjury during the SCA hearings by making false statements about his doping activities. At the time, Armstrong attacked SCA and its founder, Bob Hamman, as well as witnesses, including some members of the cycling community, who testified for the company.'' - New York Times"/>

			<outline text="''In the months and years to come there is going to be a lot of stuff revealed. It's going to be not just a black period for doping but it's going to reflect on what others'... He's destroyed people and if you go against him, he tries to destroy you. He's been trying that for ten years with me.'' - cycling champion Greg LeMond, in CyclingNews"/>

			<outline text="''He was not just a part of the doping culture on his team, he enforced and re-enforced it. Armstrong's use of drugs was extensive and the doping programme on his team, designed in large part to benefit Armstrong, was massive and pervasive. Armstrong and his co-conspirators sought to achieve their ambitions through a massive fraud now more fully exposed. So ends one of the most sordid chapters in sports history.'' - BBC Sports"/>

			<outline text="Armstrong continues to lie to the world"/>

			<outline text="Despite all the evidence against him, Armstrong continues to lie to the world, absurdly claiming he never doped and it's all some evil government conspiracy set out to destroy him. He apparently wants us to believe that all his teammates and former employees and assistants have all formed a grand conspiracy against him for the purpose of'... what, exactly? Creating a media circus that benefits no one and may very well destroy the credibility of the entire sport?"/>

			<outline text="No, it's now perfectly clear that Lance Armstrong is a serial liar. He lied to his fans, lied to his sponsors and lied to the world. He achieved his victories by cheating."/>

			<outline text="All those people who adored him by wearing those silly yellow Livestrong bracelets were, predictably, worshipping a world-class deceiver who has received millions of dollars in sponsorship money from the pharmaceutical companies. And today, Lance Armstrong has stepped down as the chairman of Livestrong."/>

			<outline text="At the same time, Nike has suddenly ended its contract with Lance Armstrong, too. Sponsorship contracts for Lance Armstrong are falling like dominoes, it seems. It's no wonder: does any corporation want the face of a world-class cheater to represent its brand?"/>

			<outline text="Big Pharma loved the guy, of course. What better spokesperson for the pharmaceutical industry than a ''serial liar'' who used banned chemicals to cheat? That sounds like the entire business model of Big Pharma, come to think of it."/>

			<outline text="''On a different but still relevant note, the Lance Armstrong Foundation was recently exposed for funding a Big Pharma-backed study that promotes an increase in the prescription of opiates and other pain reliever drugs, despite their growing and widespread abuse. The so-called PAINS Initiative study was also backed by the group Rx Action Alliance and drug giant Purdue Pharmaceuticals, the latter of which was fined more than half a billion dollars for misleading the public about the addictive nature of OxyContin (oxycodone).'' - NaturalNews.com"/>

			<outline text="Armstrong was a bully to anyone who questioned him"/>

			<outline text="But Armstrong wasn't merely a cheater, a liar, and a doper. He's also a really nasty, mean person, according to people who have had dealings with him. He viciously attacked anyone who threatened his ''empire.'' Just ask Mike Anderson, a former friend of Armstrong who says he was betrayed by Armstrong."/>

			<outline text="''Armstrong's aggressive attempts to ruin me, and their effectiveness, left me with a deepening sense of disappointment in the U.S. justice system, where the well-heeled often get away with things that ordinary citizens simply can't,'' writes Anderson, adding that Armstrong was never a victim, but often a victimizer of others. (http://www.naturalnews.com/037193_Lance_Armstrong_doping_insiders.htm'...)"/>

			<outline text="See the original story on Mike Anderson at OutsideOnline.com"/>

			<outline text="Lance Armstrong, of course, can easily afford highly-paid lawyers, and those lawyers were regularly dispatched to attack anyone who accused Armstrong of doping. In the case of Mike Anderson, Armstrong's attorney responded with a scathing letter accusing Anderson of being a liar and calling him ''AnderSatan!'' We now know this legal response to be full of lies itself, but if you want to read it, here's the text published in August of this year."/>

			<outline text="One of the subheads from that attack piece written by Lance Armstrong's lawyer reads, ''Mr. Anderson Falsely Accuses Lance Armstrong of Avoiding Taking a Drug Test.'' It's almost laughable now, isn't it? Now the whole world knows Lance Armstrong was running a massive doping conspiracy while viciously attacking the people around him who tried to blow the whistle on his behavior!"/>

			<outline text="Even Piers Morgan saw the truth about Armstrong, saying, ''Nice guy that Lance Armstrong '-- a nasty, vengeful bully as well as the world's biggest sporting cheat.'' - Hollywood Reporter."/>

			<outline text="The Guardian writes, ''Lance Armstrong case: The dope cheat, the bully and the cancer fighter '' On the one hand he could be utterly charming, the inspiring cancer hero, on the other he would bully anyone who dared speak against him.''"/>

			<outline text="''This is my body. And I can do whatever I want to it.''"/>

			<outline text="''Everybody wants to know what I'm on. What am I on? I'm on my bike, bustin' my ass six hours a day. What are you on?''"/>

			<outline text="Followed by ''Just do it'' and the NIKE swoosh."/>

			<outline text="But of course we now know exactly what he was on: Illegal doping substances. Which means Lance Armstrong was, and still is, full of complete sh#t. And NIKE helped pay for the ads that attempted to cover it all up."/>

			<outline text="Comments to the YouTube video lay it out with raw truth:"/>

			<outline text="What am I on? EPO, steroids, human growth hormone, transfused blood'... The question is, what aren't I on?"/>

			<outline text="This is my body, I can do whatever I want to it. I can dope it, inject it, fill it with some extra blood I have saved in Tyler's freezer. What am I on? F#$k man, I'm on all kinds of mad sh%#!"/>

			<outline text="With the release of the Usada report, Lance has been crushed under a mountain of evidence. He has been shown to be a cheat, a liar, a hypocrite, and a bully. I wish I could have back all those hours I spent rooting for him in the Tour. Once upon a time, I was a fan and I believed the guy. I loved this commercial, and I figured the Frenchies were just pissed off at Lance because he kept winning their Big Race. Of course, now I know better. I was a sucker."/>

			<outline text="Lance Armstrong is a symbol of everything that's wrong with our modern world"/>

			<outline text="At the end of the day, Lance Armstrong was more than just a serial liar, cheater, doper and ringleader of a massive international conspiracy. He was more than just a receiver of millions of dollars from big corporate sponsors like NIKE. He was the guy who told the world the way to rise to the top was to be honest and work hard. His victory was made out of pure dedication, integrity and a ''just do it'' attitude. That was his formula, he told us. And if we worked hard, followed the rules, and had the same kind of dedication that Armstrong did, we could achieve great things too, we were promised."/>

			<outline text="And yet, it was all a cruel lie. Armstrong didn't get to the top through hard work and high integrity. He got there with a needle in his arm, a bully lawyer behind his back, and a network of wealthy corporate sponsors who winked and nodded and kept the cash flowing."/>

			<outline text="He won his victories by cheating, lying and intimidating others. He's the mafia boss of cycling; the Satan of sport. He's the guy who charmed everybody into a state of trust and even celebrity worship, while in the back room he was smacking a vein to find a ready injection point for another needle full of illegal chemicals."/>

			<outline text="Lance Armstrong, it turns out, is the anti-hero'... and a despicable human being, to boot. He not only lied to the world, he has now crushed the hopes and dreams in the minds of millions of people who literally worshipped the guy. He has betrayed not merely his teammates, his fans and his sport, he has betrayed the very thing that gives us hope in a troubled world: the idea that a regular guy can achieve something great if he just dedicates himself to a goal and pursues it with honesty and effort."/>

			<outline text="And yet, Armstrong's fakery isn't unique. Much of the world around us is living in a dream state, believing countless other fictions like ''the national debt doesn't matter'' or ''vaccines are safe even though they still contain mercury, formaldehyde and MSG.'' Or even the NIKE fiction of, ''You'll be cool and popular if you wear these tennis shoes made by low-wage workers sweating it out somewhere in Asia.''"/>

			<outline text="Much of the world we see is a fiction'... pure fakery and marketing hype. And so Lance Armstrong, being a man of hype and deception, may actually still be the perfect spokesperson for the corporations that dominate our world. The fact that he was lying to the world only makes him even more aligned with the corporations, it turns out. Maybe NIKE should change its slogan to, ''Just Lie'' and put Lance Armstrong back on contract."/>

			<outline text="Just Lie like Lance Armstrong, and you too can win Olympic medals and world sporting events. Just Lie and you too can receive millions of dollars in sponsorship contracts. Just Lie and you can be worshipped as a hero by millions, even as you are betraying them all with despicable dishonesty."/>

			<outline text="Just Lie'... and you can follow in the footsteps of Lance Armstrong, a scammer and a cheat who fooled the world for more than a decade but ultimately destroyed himself out of sheer greed, arrogance and denial."/>

			<outline text="Mr. Sunstein recently stepped down as chief information and regulation officer for the White House. Now he spends his time in the ''green pastures of Harvard University.''  Recently he had enough time to pen the attached apology for nonsensical interpretations of the US Constitution."/>

			<outline text="The article concerns the 14th Amendmentand specifically how it applies to affirmative action at the University of Texas. (Didn't we do this 10 years ago?) But affirmative action is not the chief issue in his op-ed. More important is Sunstein's convoluted argument about what ''orginalist'' thinking is and is not. Very quickly in the essay we head down the lawyerly rabbit hole. Rabbit holes with lawyers are the worst kind."/>

			<outline text="Sunstein holds that Justices Scalia and Thomas are not really ''originalist'' in their interpretations of the Constitution and especially in the recent UT case."/>

			<outline text="He explains that in his opinion Scalia and Thomas were real ''orginalists'' they would have to take into account the various nuances which surround the14th Amendment, the institution of the Freedmen's Bureaufor instance.  ''Originalists'' would surely have to take into account this tangential legislation (and its intent) which occurred in the wake of the Civil War."/>

			<outline text="But just because a piece of legislation was enacted at the same time as the Amendment was instituted, or because the general vibe of government was radiating this way or that does not matter. Orginalist interpretation centers on what the Constitution actually says. What does the Equal Protection Clause acually say?"/>

			<outline text="Now this is where the linguists, the political correctness police, and the lawyers come together. I mean just because ''up'' may mean ''up'' to you mister bourgeois middle class guy, does not in fact mean that ''up'' is ''up'' to me or someone with a different ''worldview.'' ''Up'' may in fact mean ''down'' to some, or even sideways. This mister bourgeois middle class guy is why we have lawyers who can decipher the meaning of ''up'' for everyone, and what the 14th Amendment actually says for that matter."/>

			<outline text="People like Mr. Sunstein understand that if people in positions of power call the sky red when it is blue long enough everyday folks will begin to agree that the sky is in fact red. In fact over enough time people will even forget what the color blue is (if this is what the redskyers desire.)"/>

			<outline text="The Constitution says what it says. But to accept this is to accept that much of the government superstructure we have erected over the last 100 years is illegitimate. Mr Sunstein and his fellow travelers will never accept that."/>

			<outline text="John Horgan, a science writer who lives just a few miles north of the Indian Point Nuclear Power station, has published a pointed commentary in Scientific American titled No Nukes + No Fracking = More Coal? Indian Point Debate Highlights Green Quandary."/>

			<outline text="As a converted former opponent of the Indian Point facility, Horgan has done the math and researched the actions of Germany and other countries that have claimed they were shutting down nuclear plants and replacing them with unreliables and doing without (aka renewables and energy conservation). What he has found is that the real power that replaces the reliable, emission free output from nuclear energy plants comes from coal and natural gas."/>

			<outline text="Sure, there have been well-publicized sunny, mild Saturday afternoons when unreliables provided more than half of the electricity that Germans were using. What the reports did not mention was that the occasion probably happened at a time when a fair portion of population had turned off their industrial equipment, televisions and cooking appliances to enjoy a sunny spring weekend outside."/>

			<outline text="Horgan has recognized that such events are the exception, not the rule."/>

			<outline text="After Fukushima, German announced that it would close its nuclear power plants by 2022. But to meet its energy needs, Germany has had to build new fossil-fuel plants, including one of the biggest coal facilities in the world. As The Washington Post reported, ''Germany's dilemma shows how difficult it is to balance competing environmental priorities, even with vast resources and popular support for the efforts.''"/>

			<outline text="I must admit I was just a tiny bit disappointed in Horgan's piece. Not only did he imply that natural gas would be an adequate substitute for Indian Point, he neglected to credit one of the major reasons that he changed his mind about nuclear energy."/>

			<outline text="Though he mentioned the influence of my good friend, Gwyneth Cravens, in the evolution of his thinking about energy, he did not say that I was the guy who introduced him to Gwyneth. He didn't provide any links to the initial Blogginheads conversation that we had about nuclear energy in general or the one that we had on March 16, 2012 about nuclear energy in the aftermath of Fukushima. I'm hurt. (grin) Perhaps it is time for us to get together again."/>

			<outline text="On another topic, I am looking forward to a gathering tonight of the Virginia chapter of the American Nuclear Society.

			<outline text="This blog detests these conservative dandies who either have never fired a gun in their life killing anything or buy their hunting done for them."/>

			<outline text="In saying that, this is about Mike Gallagher being invited to South Dakota, the other Um Dakota according to Rush Limbaugh and for Mark Levin, that would be the other South Dakota that Minnesotan's can hear broadcasts out of..........in MG was invited for a freebie hunt by Foster Freiss the billionaire......."/>

			<outline text="You know about Festus, he is the rich Wyoming squatter who would not even bother replying to his blog, as he is too liberal Aspen Institute in buying Romney and Ryan......likes that Dickhead D'Souza too with his 2016 plagiarizing movie for bloggers and who was saying America was responsible for 9 11."/>

			<outline text="Anyway, back at the ranch and I'm pissed about  this, as  Gomer Gallagher gets invited and this bird does not even hunt. He whines about poor pheasants and has this head up his ass not knowing anything about life.So Mike gets told to go out to South Dakota, which he explains is the last place on earth, which really will endear him to those people out there."/>

			<outline text="Next  they tell him to get waterproof boots and pants.....and Gallagher thinks then that pheasants are water birds and not upland birds. For a clue to Mike Gallagher, the reason one wears waterproof boots and pants IS IT RAINS and not that Chinese ringneck pheasants are ducks."/>

			<outline text="I do have concerns about this going Dick Cheney, as Dick actually did hunt this location as it is where the big shots all hunt.......unlike good friend Bo Jackson of the NFL who hunts down at the lodge at Winner, another remote place, but really nice stone fireplace."/>

			<outline text="Anyway I digress........"/>

			<outline text="So this dolt Gallagher starts calling the South Dakota down, GettEEEZZburg which is like Pennsylvania, but in South Dakota the native cowpies say it different in it is Get TESSburg. It is a short E S and not the long E Z which Gallagher would not know as he is like all these conservatives in not knowing a thing about America."/>

			<outline text="I will educate Mike Gallagher on one other thing and that is the capital is PEER pronunciation of the French Pierre.........do not be the Professor on Gilligans Island or the locals will be sure to be thinking you are a dumb ass there Mike."/>

			<outline text="Now for the reality so Mike does not blow Foster Freiss' head off, even if Freiss does deserve to get shot in the ass for not replying to me, that big A HOLE of Aspen liberal Institute buying Romney and Ryan."/>

			<outline text="Mike Gallagher does need an NRA hunter safety course for a license, but if the hunt is canned as this is pheasants raised in pens for the Nimrod's to blast, that might be a non issue. Point is hunters like myself sneer at this kind of shooting of birds the dudes like billionaire Freiss pay for."/>

			<outline text="A real hunter would be armed with a pump shotgun, with a plug in the magazine for 3 shots like for waterfowl. I shoot either handloads of an ounce and eighth 2 shot loaded fast. There is not recoil nor blast with this and it kills pheasants quite lovely at range, as I only shoot wild birds honed by coyotes, coon and fox...........that is raccoon for the racists."/>

			<outline text="Damned horned owls too and Cooper's hawks..........honed by them."/>

			<outline text="Any way, Gallagher though should just get a single shot, loaded with Super X and 5 shot with a modified choke as that is about all he will be good for. That way he can only blow his own head off or shoot Foster Freiss in the ass, and nothing much will happen to the bystanders."/>

			<outline text="I would get a nice pair of Rocky Mountain Boots as they are light. A pair of blue jeans, over chaps for wet, and baseball type cap and a canvas coat, and he will need some orange so Ralph Reed doesn't abort him with a 20 gauge."/>

			<outline text="Oh Mike, you probably should shoot a 12 as it is a hunter's gauge, but knowing you, you will probably wuss out for the 20.........I like 2 3/4 loads in my pheasant hunting.....preference Winchester, Remington and then Federal.......Feds run hotter usually."/>

			<outline text="As far as dogs......leave them alone Mike in their business. You will probably wince in them slobbering and things, so do not grab the birds from them and ruin the dog in the fetching. You will probably get spurred by a cock pheasant too, and that would hurt your hand, so just let the professionals touch the dogs and handle the birds. It would be better if you just stayed in the lodge, along with Foster, and the rest of the girls, and let real hunters do the job, but then you lillies will of course all pretend you are hunters."/>

			<outline text="You will run into preachers lice, niggers lice, cockleburrs and burdocks......all plants that stick you and the burn weeds have things to get into your eyes. You will probably have some shooting glasses on like a puss, so that should not be a problem."/>

			<outline text="Shooting skeet is not like shooting with a coat on......so you will catch the butt of the shotgun on things.....and you will probably have your finger on the trigger with the safety off too as you are an idiot..........Foster should have donated to my blog before you kill him with an ass shot of lead 5's."/>

			<outline text="South Dakota has hell for wind. Your weekend should be relatively calm though for that state."/>

			<outline text="Am thinking.......oh Mike, do not take passing shots of right to left........you will miss of course. Just wait for the pheasants which explode under your feet and fly straight away and then shoot them in the ass.Most pheasants fly at a 30 degree angle, so just pull out about a foot in front of their head and pull the trigger. Should kill most of what you are dealing with."/>

			<outline text="Be careful eating the birds others eat, as lead shot busts teeth. This ain't chickens we are dealing with from Tyson."/>

			<outline text="I really would like to be there in showing you children how to kill pheasants. Is not much sport in it, and is why I do not hunt them often any more, as I do not get terrified of them exploding up under my feet any more. Is just a matter of killing them and the treat is watching the dogs work as hunting dogs are the happiest creatures of the canine world in  being fulfilled."/>

			<outline text="I do detest Mike Gallagher though in his poor pheasants and his whining about things. It is hard enough to keep gun rights without that A HOLE saying things like that in public. It is an ordeal if he knew cock pheasants root hen pheasants out of roosts in cold snowy weather so they die  and the cocks live.It is a fact that it requires only one cock to fertilize 50 hen pheasants, and cropping them helps the flocks."/>

			<outline text="........and for goodness sakes Gallagher do not shoot the hens even if it is a canned hunt."/>

			<outline text="I hope Foster Freiss and Gallagher get arrested and throne into Indian prison. Be good for them to teach them the finer things of South Dakota."/>

			<outline text="To waste birds and hunting on Mike Gallagher.........Foster Freiss is what is wrong with America."/>

			<outline text="This blog was first to expose the reality of Candy Crowley had coordinated with the Obama 2012 election campaign in the second debate over the ANALGATE issue in which she had deliberately prompted Mr. Obama several times in literally lying for Mr. Obama in cutting off Mitt Romney."/>

			<outline text="There is though a reality in this which is much deeper than this and will be first reported in matter and anti matter exclusive here."/>

			<outline text="What Candy Crowley was making up for was the Andersen Cooper outing of Obama in the anal dairies of Chris Stevens when CNN was in the US embassy and the FBI was holed up in Tripoli waiting for the Obama cleaners to get rid of all the evidence in the hostage taking episode he had staged against Ambassador Stevens and three others for a grand Obama rescue."/>

			<outline text="The drunken press at the Obama debate only foreshadowed their boisterous cheering and jeering of Obama asking Mitt Romney about his finances and taxes. The reality is thee entire press corp at the debate had been spying on Romney and feeding David Axelrod intelligence, ever since team Romney had fed false debate information to Obama spies which set up the first Obama implosion."/>

			<outline text="Barack Obama KNEW what the questions were going to be, because team Obama had so loaded the occupants of that debate with their hand puppets, that thee exact questions were known and Candy Crowley by her performance in giving Obama 9 minutes more time and cutting off Mitt Romney, sealed the bias which should have her, and thee entire press corp fired over this.Obama was able to fight this to a draw only, only because he had been given all the answers."/>

			<outline text="The Ambassador Stevens question was a set up. Crowley KNEW of the Obama admission of knowing this was a terror event at the Rose Garden, but you will notice NO ONE IN THE PRESS reported one iota of this, but let it sit knowing Mitt Romney would make an issue of it, and sucker punch Mr. Romney with it."/>

			<outline text="Obama's Freudian slip in the &quot;terrorist&quot; event quote was not aimed at Benghazi but all terror events, but as in all things Obama his left brain right brain can never help blurting things out, including he is a Filipino national when speaking to the President of the Philippines."/>

			<outline text="Obama was in direct contact with these &quot;terror donors&quot; as this was the same group who donated to him in 2008 illegally. Obama has been handing over Muslim nations to these communists and Syria is the lastest 30,000 dead step in this process of paying back that 300 million dollar bribe, you got stuck bailing out in TARP.Obama's Libyan terrorists were supposed to just take hostages and be surprised when Obama sent the SEALS in to murder them. Trouble was the same connected groups which murdered TEAM SIX arrived and decided to pay back Obama a bit more, and that is the chatter which intelligence picked up, and is why CIA and DOD have been absent on this."/>

			<outline text="Obama did his worst to intimidate Christians with this ANALGATE over that Muslim video, for 2 weeks. This is ANALGATE, and now in CANDYGATE, which this blog exclusively exposed first, Candy Crowley with thee entire press corp at that event has been spying on Mitt Romney and assisting Mr. Obama in this set up of Mitt Romney."/>

			<outline text="Mitt Romney's now-infamous fundraising dinner has yielded another gem. This is the event during which he was caught saying that,"/>

			<outline text=" ''There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it '-- that that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what. '... These are people who pay no income tax. '... [M]y job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.''"/>

			<outline text="Of course, those people consist of senior citizens, disabled people, veterans, students and the poor. The elitism of Romney's statement resonated with many people, enough so that it seemed to sway the election for a few weeks, at least until the first debate."/>

			<outline text="It seems that for Romney, the ''truths'' told during that particular fundraiser are like any ghost worth his reputation, the haunting is relentless and this latest portion could be the most damaging of all. In the video, Romney is caught hoping for an Iran hostage type situation to help propel him into the White House. Is it any surprise that he has tried to make political hay out of the Benghazi terror attacks?"/>

			<outline text="As you watch the video, notice the man (is that a British accent?) asking Romney how he can ''duplicate'' an Iran hostage type scenario. Instead of dismissing the question as going against American interests, Romney agrees that the strategy would be beneficial. The entire video is worth a listen but at the end, Romney says, ''if something of that nature presents itself, I will work to take advantage of the opportunity.''"/>

			<outline text="Here's the video:"/>

			<outline text="A researcher named Barnaby Jack (that has to be a fake name) recently demonstrated this dubious capability with a video at a security conference in Australia. Basically, he showed there's a secret function inside of the terminals that communicate with these electronic tickers that can be used to activate all pacemakers and implanted defibrillators in a 30-foot radius. The pacemakers will then turn over their serial and model numbers, so it's possible to upload firmware that can be spread among several implants. Once that's installed, Jack could use his laptop to send a series of 830-volt shocks to the pacemakers. Then boom! Death. Worst case scenario? This could be used to commit mass murder on the elderly:"/>

			<outline text="&quot;The worst case scenario that I can think of, which is 100 percent possible with these devices, would be to load a compromised firmware update onto a programmer and '... the compromised programmer would then infect the next pacemaker or ICD and then each would subsequently infect all others in range,&quot; Jack said."/>

			<outline text="Jack, meanwhile, won't release the video publicly because he doesn't want psychopaths getting any ideas. And while he gave no evidence as to whether or not he escaped from a mental institution, knows Russian, or has a background in Jiu-Jitsu, he has to be a spy. Has to. [SC Magazine via PopSci]"/>

			<outline text="The FBI on Wednesday arrested Quazi Nafis, a Bangladeshi Muslim freak, oncharges he attempted to blow up the New York Federal Reserve Bank with a1,000-pound (450-kg) bomb. Attempting to destroy a landmark building and kill ormaim untold numbers of innocent bystanders is about as serious as theimagination can conjure. Nafis faces appropriately severe consequences. Eggheadssay terrorism originates in the clash of cultures and foreign meddling. Einvolk, ein ummah, ein Muhammad! Promised with 72 virgins in heaven, martyrs havebecome the worst victims of Islam.International networks are used by terrorist groups to finance terroristactivity worldwide. Terrorists are supported by kleptocrats, rich Muslims,various charities, banks, drug trafficking networks, money-laundering schemesand bribed officials. The involvement of Hezbollah and al Qaeda in the drugtrade is well known. It was bin Laden who managed the drug profits for theTaliban and arranged money-laundering operations with Russian mafias, such asBratva and Brigada. Countries that fund or foster terrorism, include SaudiArabia, Iran, Syria, Sudan, Indonesia, Libya, North Korea, and Malaysia. Manyinternational aid organizations inadvertently support terror."/>

			<outline text="Nafis traveled to the United States in January 2012. Once in New York, he was incontact with al Qaeda members. Nafis considered several targets for his attack,including the New York Stock Exchange, and Obama. In the end Nafis decided tofocus on the Federal Reserve Bank in lower Manhattan."/>

			<outline text="Geert Wilders declares Islam is primarily a dangerous ideology rather than areligion. Islam fails four major tests that religions should fulfill: Adherenceto a religion must be a personal choice; no religion should demand that thosewho leave it be killed; a religion must never mandate the subjugation of thosewho do not belong to it; a religion must be in accord with basic human rights."/>

			<outline text="Nafis began to seek out recruits, eventually bringing an undercover FBI agent.The two met on Wednesday morning and traveled by van to a New York warehouse,where Nafis assembled what he thought was a 1,000 pound bomb, before driving tothe Federal Reserve Bank."/>

			<outline text="After parking near the bank, Nafis walked to a nearby hotel and recorded a videostatement in which he said We will not stop until we attain victory ormartyrdom. Nafis was arrested in the hotel as he repeatedly attempted todetonate the inert bomb."/>

			<outline text="Franklin Roosevelt observed that wherever the Muslims have had a complete sway,wherever citizens have been unable to resist them by the sword, civility hasultimately disappeared. Roosevelt rejected as naive the notion that allreligions are the same. Some religions give a higher value to each human life,and some religions and belief systems give a lower value. Our social values,including equality before the law, exist only because the Christians of Europedid what the Christians of Asia and Africa had failed to do '' that is, to beatback the Moslem invader."/>

			<outline text="John Quincy Adams pointed out that Muhammad poisoned the sources of humanfelicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and theallowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war aspart of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. The essence of Muhammad'sdoctrine was violence and lust; to exalt the brutal over the spiritual part ofhuman nature."/>

			<outline text="In 2004, on a street in Amsterdam, Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh was brutallymurdered by a Muslim of Moroccan descent. Van Gogh had collaborated with aSomali emigrant, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, to produce the film Submission, about theabuse of women in Islam. Van Gogh's killer had impaled on his victim's chest anopen letter threatening death to Geert Wilders and Ali, whose politics had putthem on extremists' kill-lists. Two days after the murder, both were whiskedinto hiding by police because of imminent threats of assassination."/>

			<outline text="Wilders draws effectively on the history of Islam to illuminate current events.Thus, he recounts the hijra or migration, of Muhammad and his followers toYathrib in the year 622. Taking advantage of its welcome and tolerance, Muhammadproceeded to overthrow the city from within. What was Yathrib became Medina, andthere Islam's first mosque was Muhammad's propaganda center, the headquarters ofhis state and the barracks of his jihad."/>

			<outline text="Yathrib is the model for the offensive via immigration that Islam has undertakenagainst the West almost 1,400 years later. Wilders also points to Medina's firstmosque as the prototype for mosques throughout the West, primarily a politicalinstitution, not a place of worship."/>

			<outline text="Wilders produced Fitna to illustrate that the Koran, a book of satanic verses,advocates violence. He was prosecuted under Dutch hate-speech laws for groupinsult and incitement of hatred and discrimination. Although he was acquittedultimately, Wilders' tale on this topic is sobering, for it shows how lawfarecan be used to chill unwelcome speech."/>

			<outline text="In large part because of the courage of Wilders, the Netherlands has begun toconfront the damage wrought by Muslim migration and the politics of appeasementthat for so long have characterized the West's reaction to the claims of allegedvictims of all stripes. The Islamic tide is strong, but the West has repulsed itbefore, and we can do it again. You may not be interested in Islam, but Islam isinterested in you. So pay attention."/>

			<outline text="Christoph Luxenberg has proven the Koran, a book of satanic verses, was firstwritten in Aramaic, not in Arabic. There is also a difference between thetolerant verses of the early period, when Muhammad was still powerless and underthreat, and the hostile verses of the later period. The Koran was made up byMuhammad as it suited his opportunistic goals for power, money, and sex."/>

			<outline text="Islam appeared one century after Muhammad's death. The first century of theArab conquest shows the conquerors holding not to Islam but to Hagarism.Hagarenes claimed descent from Abraham through his slave wife Hagar, similarlyto the Jews who claimed descent from Abraham through Sarah. The Muhammad ofIslamic tradition did not exist!"/>

			<outline text="It was only in the eighth century, when the rulers of a now-vast Arabian empirefelt the need for a unifying political theology, that they cobbled together theIslamic religion. The key figure in this enterprise was the brutal governor ofIraq, Hajjaj ibn Yusuf. That's why Islam is such a profoundly politicalreligion with uniquely prominent incivil qualities."/>

			<outline text="Recently by Mac Slavo:Caught On Tape: Obama Campaign Staffers Say It's 'Okay' To Vote Twice"/>

			<outline text="Up until recently the existence of a national ''red list'' of domestic dissidents and potential terrorists existed only within the realm of conspiracy theory and Hollywood story lines."/>

			<outline text="But what if such a red list did exist?"/>

			<outline text="What if all of those tracking and monitoring mechanisms being put into place by the Department of Homeland Security, the National Security Administration and the Central Intelligence Agency are now being utilized to identify and take action against American citizens who may pose a perceived threat to the security and stability of the United States government?"/>

			<outline text="Yes, it sounds like something out of a science fiction novel, but you'd better believe that it's happening, and it's happening right here and now."/>

			<outline text="When 34-year-old U.S. citizen and Mississippi resident Wade Hicks boarded a military flight to visit his wife, a Navy lieutenant stationed in Okinawa, Japan, he did not think it would be a one-way trip. Stopping off in Hawaii to refuel, upon reboarding the plane, Hicks was quickly escorted back off again by armed guards. He was then taken to a secure interrogation room where Hicks was informed he would not be flying anywhere because he turned up on the no-fly list."/>

			<outline text="Hicks has since been stranded on the island state without a way home."/>

			<outline text="'..."/>

			<outline text="After being asked to get off the plane, ''It started out like something fairly routine,'' Hicks said in his interview with Infowars. ''About 15-20 minutes later, two heavily armed Air Force security forces guys showed up.''"/>

			<outline text="It was then Hicks was told he would not be flying anywhere. There is no indication as to why Hicks was able to first fly from San Francisco to Hawaii without being notified he was supposedly on the list."/>

			<outline text="Seemingly the only ''crime'' Hicks has committed that would end in revocation of his ability to fly is his affiliation with the Mississippi Preparedness Project, a prepper organization. Although prepping is not illegal, the FBI has been cracking down on preppers for awhile now, with everything from spying on people who visit prepper websitesto straight up stripping preppers of their Second Amendment rights."/>

			<outline text="Hicks revealed to Infowars that a supposed disabled veteran claiming to be a Navy Seal had joined his prepper group earlier in the year, but Hicks felt the man's story seemed suspicious. Through a Freedom of Information Act request, Hicks learned the man had never been in the military even though he possessed an authentic military ID. Sometime later while out driving, Hicks saw the man's car and ended up tailing him to a Mississippi Department of Homeland Security branch office where the man parked his car."/>

			<outline text="When asked if he thought his affiliation with a prepper group caused him to get detained, Hicks responded, ''If it does, that's a pretty sad situation.''"/>

			<outline text="Via Infowars"/>

			<outline text="Watch the disturbing Infowars report and interview with Wade Hicks and Doug Hagman of the Northeast Intelligence Network:"/>

			<outline text="Wade Hicks is a law abiding citizen; this has been confirmed by a background check performed by the Northeast Intelligence Network which was authorized by Hicks."/>

			<outline text="His only ''crime,'' it seems, is that he is associated with the preparedness movement and that he has a preference for limited government."/>

			<outline text="Last year Senator Rand Paul warned us about scenarios much like this one. To the apathetic and indifferent ears of the American public Paul said ''that some day there could be a government in power that is shipping its citizens off for disagreements.''"/>

			<outline text="That day has come and Rand Paul's prescient warnings are becoming a frightening reality."/>

			<outline text="There are laws on the books now that characterize who might be a terrorist."/>

			<outline text="Someone missing fingers on their hands is a suspect according to the Department of Justice. Someone who has guns, someone who has ammunition that is weatherproofed, someone who has more than seven days of food in their house can be considered a potential terrorist."/>

			<outline text="If you are suspected by these activities do you want the government to have the ability to send you to Guantanamo Bay for indefinite detention?"/>

			<outline text="Wade Hicks may not have been sent to Guantanamo, but he was detained against his will and restricted from travel by his own government '' and for no reason at all. In fact, Hicks may never learn why he was added to the no-fly list because of national security secrecy laws made possible through the Patriot Act."/>

			<outline text="He has been found guilty without ever having been charged, with no evidence having been presented, and without being tried in a court of law as is mandated by the Constitution of the United States '' the supposed fundamental law of the land."/>

			<outline text="The bottom line is that Wade Hicks is considered a potential terrorist and enemy of the United States."/>

			<outline text="He's on the red list."/>

			<outline text="And there's a strong possibility that if you store emergency food, or visit alternative web sites, or put a Gadsden bumper sticker on your car, or like to collect guns, or associate with certain groups on social networks, you are already on the red list, or soon will be."/>

			<outline text="We once facetiously noted that the rate at which people are being added to government no-fly lists, no-work lists and the DHS master list, indicates the list itself will exceed the population of the entire country by 2019. Maybe that notion wasn't so far off."/>

			<outline text="Hollywood is to court controversy with a film that will challenge the official version of the events of 9/11, a previously taboo topic for the industry mainstream. Martin Sheen, Woody Harrelson and Ed Asner, who have all supported conspiracy theories about the terrorist attacks, have signed up to the movie, which is entitled September Morn."/>

			<outline text="Styling itself as a drama in the tradition of Twelve Angry Men, the film's advance publicity note hints at a cover-up, saying: &quot;We the people demand that the government revisit and initiates a thorough and independent investigation to the tragic events of 911.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Details of the film, which is to be directed by BJ Davis and written by Howard Cohen, are expected to be revealed at an American Film Market conference in Los Angeles next week, Deadline.com reported."/>

			<outline text="The production has been set up by Fleur de Lis Film Studios, which has also made the documentary A Noble Lie, about the Oklahoma City bombing, and Operation: Dark Heart, a feature based on an intelligence agent's memoirs."/>

			<outline text="Until now Hollywood has steered clear of claims that the Bush administration, or other elements in the government, may have been behind the 9/11 attacks, in which hijacked passenger planes crashed into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Pennslyvania. The fourth plane was apparently en route to the Capitol."/>

			<outline text="Oliver Stone, who has challenged official history in JFK and other films, steered clear of conspiracy theories in his 2006 film World Trade Center, which focused on the heroism of police and rescuers."/>

But all of that was eradicated by 19 Saudi Arabians, supposedly. Some of whom didn't even know how to fly.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="During a recorded meeting in Central Park with the agent, Nafis said his goal was Muslim global domination."/>

			<outline text="''I don't want something that's like small. I just want something big,'' he said. ''Something very big.

			<outline text="Preventing what could have been a major terror attack on American soil, US authorities on Wednesday arrested a man they said attempted to detonate what he believed was a 1,000-pound (454 kilogram) bomb at the Federal Reserve Bank in New York's financial district."/>

			<outline text="The 21-year-old Bangladeshi man, Quazi Mohammad Rezwanul Ahsan Nafis, faces charges of trying to use a weapon of mass destruction and attempting to provide material support to al Qaeda, according to a statement from the US Justice Department."/>

			<outline text="''The defendant came to this country intent on conducting a terrorist attack on US soil and worked with single-minded determination to carry out his plan,'' said US Attorney Loretta Lynch."/>

			<outline text="Officials said Nafis' arrest was the culmination of an undercover operation during which he was being monitored by the FBI and New York Police Department."/>

			<outline text="Authorities said at Nafis' request, an undercover agent supplied him with 20 bags of purported explosives and Nafis purchased components for the bomb's detonator."/>

			<outline text="On Wednesday morning, Nafis allegedly met the undercover agent in Long Island, outside of New York City, and then assembled what he believed to be a working bomb inside a van. Officials said they then drove to the Federal Reserve Bank and during the trip Nafis attached the explosives and armed the device."/>

			<outline text="Authorities said they parked next to the bank, where Nafis walked to a nearby hotel and recorded a video statement directed at the American people."/>

			<outline text="In it, he allegedly said, ''We will not stop until we attain victory or martyrdom.''"/>

			<outline text="Later, Nafis is accused of attempting to detonate the bomb with a cellphone before he was arrested."/>

			<outline text="Law enforcement officials said that Nafis was being monitored throughout the sting operation and stressed that the public was never in any danger and that the explosives in the van were inactive."/>

			<outline text="According to a criminal complaint, Nafis traveled to the United States in January 2012 for the purpose of conducting a terrorist assault."/>

			<outline text="The complaint alleges that Nafis had proposed multiple targets for his attack, including a high-ranking U.S. official and the New York Stock Exchange before deciding on the Federal Reserve Bank. "/>

			<outline text="The bank is located just blocks from the World Trade Center site, and has the most gold bullion in the world."/>

			<outline text="Nafis allegedly wrote that he wanted to ''destroy America'' and he believed the most efficient way to do this was to target the US economy.  In this statement, Nafis also included quotations from ''our beloved Sheikh Osama bin Laden,'' the Justice Department said."/>

			<outline text="''Al Qaeda operatives and those they have inspired have tried time and time again to make New York City their killing field,'' New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.  ''We are up to 15 plots and counting since 9/11.''"/>

			<outline text="My children I warned of the danger to Mitt Romney if he started exploiting the popular vote gap at 25 points. It has reached that point as much as the double entry ledger in Obama will have hisself scuffed to appeal to white female sympathy by activating a BATF Mormon white guy, who is probably who will be blamed for &quot;shattering&quot; that Denver window before the last debate."/>

			<outline text="*Note as the police blackout in this is widespread in the cover up, it means literally that this was a government agent employed by Obama in being a professional to set this stage or this was literally a black person who went postal, and this too was what this blog warned of exclusively months ago in the Obama regime was very leery of blacks who might go postal at some Obama event, as blacks have been hit hardest by Obama policies than any other group."/>

			<outline text="CNN host Candy Crowley on Wednesday stood her ground and refused to backtrack as a surrogate for Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney insisted that she had been &quot;wrong&quot; to fact check the GOP hopeful's claim that President Barack Obama had not referred to the attacks in Libya as &quot;acts of terror.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="While moderating Tuesday night's second 2012 presidential debate, Crowley had briefly stunned Romney when she undermined his claim that Obama had not taken the Benghazi attacks seriously."/>

			<outline text="''He did call it an act of terror,'' she had told the former Massachusetts governor. ''It did as well take two weeks or so for the whole idea of there being a riot out there about this tape to come out.''"/>

			<outline text="By the next morning, conservatives were insisting that Crowley had backtracked because she later explained that Romney was &quot;right in the main&quot; but &quot;picked the wrong word&quot; by saying that Obama had not called the attacks terrorism."/>

			<outline text="&quot;This morning, Paul Ryan, who has been making the rounds on the morning shows, says, 'Well, she's already backtracked,'&quot; CNN host Soledad O'Brien pointed out to Crowley on Wednesday morning. &quot;Are you backtracking on what you said in that fact check last night?&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;Goodness, I hope they get back to one another,&quot; Crowley replied, adding that her comments following the debate were &quot;exactly the same&quot; as the original fact check. &quot;He did say 'acts of terror,' call it an act of terror, but, Gov. Romney, you are perfectly right that it took weeks for them to get past the tape.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;Not a backtrack?&quot; O'Brien wondered."/>

			<outline text="&quot;No!&quot; Crowley said. &quot;Now, did the president say, 'This was an act of terror'? The president did not say [that], he said, these 'acts of terror.' But he was in the Rose Garden to talk about Benghazi so I don't think that's a leap.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), who was appearing on Wednesday morning's CNN panel as a Romney surrogate, told Crowley that &quot;it wasn't necessarily your place to try to be fact checker right there. I happen to think that your assessment of that was wrong. ... It's not the role of the moderator to say, 'Mr's President, you're right.'&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;Nonsense,&quot; CNN liberal contributor Roland Martin quipped. &quot;The congressman is dead wrong. If you stand there and say something that is wrong, you should be corrected on the spot. Look, I have no problem even having a table of fact checkers there. We shouldn't wait until the debate is over and then have different people saying, this was right, this was wrong. More people are watching that singular debate than they're watching anyone's particular coverage.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;And so if you say something and it's wrong, you check them right then,&quot; he added."/>

			<outline text="1:00 p.m. EDT"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Happy Wednesday, everybody. I have one little thing at the top, then we'll go to what's on your minds. This is with regard to our Human Rights Dialogue in Burma. Our first Human Rights Dialogue with the Government of Burma concluded earlier today in Nay Pyi Taw. Assistant Secretary for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, Michael Posner, led a 22-member interagency delegation from the U.S. to discuss the full range of human rights issues affecting the country. The delegation included senior representatives from the White House National Security staff, the Office of the Vice President, the Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Agency for International Development, and the Department of Defense."/>

			<outline text="The talks reflected our whole-of-government approach for engagement with Burma to address outstanding concerns of the international community in the area of human rights. The results of the dialogue were assessed to be very positive and we look forward to continuing these discussions with Burmese authorities."/>

			<outline text="Let's go to what's on your minds."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Sorry, I don't really have anything. But on that, when you say the results of the talk were assessed to be very positive --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: By the participants."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I knew you were going to say that."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: What does that mean?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: That the tone was very good, that we were able to talk about a broad cross-section of human rights issues. You saw that the delegation reflected experts in different aspects of how our government addresses human rights, and we weren't sure whether the Burmese would be open to addressing all of those issues, and they were."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And they did."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So you're pretty confident that there's not going to be a human rights problem in Burma in the coming days, weeks, months?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We are confident that we have now an open channel with the Government of Burma to discuss human rights and to continue to work on bringing them where they want to be in terms of human rights standards for their government."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Did the U.S. team get a '' sort of a count from them on the number of political prisoners that still remain, and any sense of how that is progressing?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I didn't get a chance to talk to Assistant Secretary Posner. I'm sure those issues came up, but let me get a little more for you when he comes home."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Also, we'd be interested in what they said on Rakhine."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: New topic?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: New topic. Yeah, let's go to Elise."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: On Syria?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Everybody's in black today, is there something I'm --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: This is navy."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Oh, it's navy. All right, it's navy. (Laughter.)"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I'd like to follow up on your discussion yesterday on Syria and on arming the opposition. I understand that you've decided to focus your aid on kind of nonlethal, but do you think that the U.S. decision not to provide weapons to the Syrian opposition makes it more difficult to find out and ensure where these weapons are going, and that they're not going into the hands of extremists, but more secular people that you want to have them?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, as you know, we have talked quite extensively here about the fact that our own decision is to provide only nonlethal assistance to the opposition; other countries are making other choices. And we do have very close coordination in looking at all of the needs of the opposition and also looking at who's who within the opposition. This is a very, very important issue now as we see an increasing trend of extremists trying to take advantage of the violence and the lack of government authority, et cetera, all of over Syria, to try to make inroads, to try to hijack what the Syrian people want and deserve, which is a more democratic Syria and an opportunity to have a real transition."/>

			<outline text="So we are working very closely with lots of other countries. You saw that the Secretary had a meeting when we were in New York with some of the key countries we work with to try to compare notes not only on how we increase the pressure on the regime through sanctions and other measures, not only on how we support the UN's humanitarian needs and the Syrian people's humanitarian needs, but also very much on who the emerging leaders are in Syria, what we can do to ensure that we are supporting those who want a democratic Syria, and we are doing what we can to encourage them as they begin to take more control in parts of Syria where the regime has seeded the field, that they are leading in a manner that reflects the kind of Syria we all want to have, one that's pluralistic, one that's inclusive, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But specifically on the weapons. Are you saying that you're working with '' closely with other countries to make sure that the weapons are going '' who are making those choices to make sure that the weapons are going to the right type of people?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think I'm not going to get too deeply into the details of the conversations that we are having, but I would say that we are very, very conscious and we are very active in working with our partners to assess the situation and to encourage that all support going to the opposition, whether it's to the nonlethal that we're providing or other support, that there be good vetting of who it's going to and that we compare notes on what we are seeing. Because it's not just a matter of individual leaders, it's also a matter of ensuring that the groups that are working there are not becoming infiltrated."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But just admittedly though, you not doing it yourself does make it less '' a little bit more difficult for you to control that, would you say?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We have very good and close coordination with the countries that you saw meet with the Secretary in New York when we were there a couple of weeks ago. This is very much a focus to ensure that we are doing what we can to strengthen those in the opposition who support a democratic Syria and to help them resist the efforts of the extremists to hijack their efforts."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Toria, seeing that three close allies, namely Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar are the major providers of these weapons, do you caution them against dumping weapons like they did in Libya, for instance? I mean, we have been down that road before."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I'm not going to go any further than I just went in response to Elise's question, but we are very much working to ensure that the groups that any of us is are supporting are focused on the right kind of the Syria and discouraging extremism, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Just following on that, and I apologize if you touched on this yesterday, but there are reports now that the various elements of the opposition are trying to yet again forge a new leadership structure that would include the FSA. Has that '' are you aware of this? Is Ambassador Ford in touch with them? Do you think this is a sort of viable vehicle now?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Ambassador Ford is very much in touch on a daily basis, on an hourly basis, with opposition groups, both inside Syria, those who've recently left, and some of the longtime external opposition figures. We are, as the Secretary said in New York and as we've said since, working very hard to support them in their effort to unify. We are encouraged by some of these efforts at unity that we're seeing, particularly inside Syria."/>

			<outline text="We talk about providing communications gear as part of our nonlethal support. This not only is designed to help the opposition resist the regime's aggression; it's also designed to help them to communicate with each other and to work on things like a real transitional strategy that will be broadly supported within Syria, that'll protect the rights of all Syrians."/>

			<outline text="So we're encouraged, but there is more work to do, quite a bit more work to do. There's a conference that is getting underway now in Doha. They're doing some preliminary work this week. We expect that effort will accelerate, that Ambassador Ford will eventually join that group when they get to the right level, but this is part and parcel of trying to encourage more unity and to try to encourage a leadership group to emerge that is committed to democratic principles and can really engage on a transition strategy going forward --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So do you think that '' it sounds as though you don't think this new grouping, however it sort of ends up being constituted, is going to be ready to make its debut in Doha, that it's going to take more time than that? Or is that where you're expecting to sort of see the lineup?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Or is that the plan of the conference?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: My understanding is '' I assume you're talking about this group of fighters --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- that have announced some '' well, obviously, there's that group, but as you know, most of our efforts are focused on the political opposition, whether it's in the individual towns or whether it's the emerging effort to form a unified national political opposition, ensuring that they are connected to others within Syria. But it's early days, I would say."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Victoria, on the issue of the ceasefire that has been called for for Eid al-Adha, which is a week from tomorrow '' if you have any comment on that. Also, I don't know if you read or heard statements made by the Syrian Government that they are actually flexible on this issue and they will consider it. Do you take them seriously? And do you feel that the onus is on the regime to stop the violence on its part before the opposition groups do?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, we've talked about this over the last week or so here, Said. I will say again that we support any efforts to end the bloodshed in Syria. However, as Joint Special Envoy Brahimi himself has said, it's up to the government to take the first step. I'm not sure what press reporting you're reading on what the regime is saying, but what I have is that even today the regime rejected the Brahimi proposal and called a ceasefire, quote, ''pointless,'' unquote."/>

			<outline text="Please, Michel."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Toria, you've said that we are ready to look at the needs of the opposition. Did you mean that you are ready to look at their needs for specific type of arms, too?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Michel, our position with regard to nonlethal hasn't changed. We are supporting nonlethal assistance to the regime."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Is it --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: To the opposition. Goodness."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: A follow-up: Do you agree on all the types of arms that the Arab states are providing to the opposition?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I'm not going to go any further than I did in response to Elise's question with regard to our specific conversations with our allies and partners who are supporting the opposition, but we are very conscious of concerns about extremist infiltration and we're very focused on it."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I'm sorry if you went over this yesterday, but have you discussed reports by Human Rights Watch that the Syrians are using cluster munitions against the people?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We are very concerned about these kinds of reports. The security situation on the ground in general is continuing to deteriorate as the conflict escalates, not only in Aleppo and Damascus but also in Idlib, in Al Raqqa, in Homs. We've seen horrific reports of barrel bombs, of cluster munitions used against civilians, and we, as you know, have consistently condemned targeting of civilians by any group. We're not in a position ourselves to confirm the use of clusters, but there are quite broad spread '' widespread reports now from the ground to that effect."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But I mean, if these reports are true '' and obviously, you're very concerned about them '' doesn't this take this conflict to another level? I mean, cluster munitions? You've said from this podium that this is mostly a ground '' when we've talked about a no-fly zone, for instance, that this is mostly a kind of ground game and that even a no-fly zone, even if you were to consider it, wouldn't necessarily be the most prudent thing. But now that the regime is largely now using an air campaign, doesn't this heighten the necessity for some kind of no-fly zone or something?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, we have said consistently that we see regime forces ratcheting up the brutality of their tactics '' I mean, horrific enough to use fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters to strafe your own cities. We are seeing an escalating pattern of regime forces targeting civilians who are not at all involved in the conflict, so this is obviously extremely concerning as we go forward."/>

			<outline text="You know that we '' as the Secretary has said on a number of occasions, we continue to look at all of the ideas out there for trying to end the violence. She has said very clearly that we continue to talk to partners about how, what, why, exactly the elements that might go into some of these things that people have proposed, including no-fly zone, but we haven't made any decisions at this stage."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Is there a redline for the type of weapons they start using that you've drawn?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: It's not '' I don't want to put things in those terms that you've put them, Justin. We are continuing to look at the ground situation. We are, at the same time, continuing to do everything we can to squeeze this regime. I would note that not only have we continued to expand the number of countries that are sanctioning the Syrian regime, but also the kinds of things that they are sanctioning so that the effect is now being felt quite strongly on the streets of Syria, including in terms of the inflation of the currency, other kinds of things. So we're going to continue to look at all of these options and work with our partners."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Toria, a couple things. One, the President said that the use of chemical weapons would be a redline. Are you saying '' are you walking that back?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, obviously '' no. Obviously not. Obviously not."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. Is it still your understanding based on what you've heard from the Turks that that plane that was coming from Russia to '' Moscow to Damascus '' was carrying military equipment '' I think you said ''very military'' --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes, yes."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: It is?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So you are convinced that the Russians are continuing to supply the regime with military equipment and materiel to carry '' so that they can continue their repression of the people. Is that correct?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We don't have any question, based on what we've heard from our Turkish allies, that there was dangerous military cargo on that aircraft, which obviously speaks to what you're talking about."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Right. Okay, but even aside from just this one aircraft, you are certain that the Russians are continuing to supply weaponry?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: The Russians '' the Russian Government has itself said that it is not concluding any new contracts, but it is fulfilling old contracts. I don't have anything particular to brief other than with regard to this instance."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay, but I mean does this ship '' okay, so if that is in fact the case, and if it is in fact the case that the Russians are supplying this stuff, and if it is in fact the case, as you're alluding to or you're saying, that some countries have decided that arming the opposition is a good way to go and that they're doing that, is this now a proxy war between the Russians and the Iranians '' the supporters of the regime, and your friends in Gulf, particularly in Turkey, who are supplying weapons to the other side?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We've made no secret of our concerns that the longer this goes on, the more there is a prospect of the thing devolving not only into a civil war, but into a proxy war, and into a larger war that spills beyond borders. Those concerns remain. The Iranians --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Doesn't it already meet the definition of a proxy war?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm not going to be giving new definitions right here from this podium, but our concerns remain, and we've been clear with the Russians. But it's '' if you want to look for who's doing the most to prop up the Assad regime, you should address your concerns primarily to Tehran, which is not only aiding them rhetorically, aiding them financially, but is sending fighters, is advising them on tactics and technique, and also providing materiel, as we've said --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But why, but --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay, but you're '' just because it's not --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Guys? Can you guys decide which one of you is going to yell at me? (Laughter.) Go ahead."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I'm not '' I'm trying not to yell."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Good. (Laughter.)"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: The '' but I '' you're an intelligent woman. Just because it's --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Thank you, Matt. I return the compliment to you."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Just because it's not in the guidance in front of you --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: My father will be pleased to hear it."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Just because it's not in the guidance in front of you doesn't mean you can't call it like '' call it what it is. If you have the Russians and the Iranians '' okay, the Iranians for the most part '' on one side supplying the regime with weaponry, enabling it to stay in power longer and enabling it to kill more of its people, and you have on the other side your good friends and allies in the Gulf, and a NATO ally included in that, supplying the opposition with weaponry that you yourself just said you're helping to vet who gets it, how does this not meet the definition of a proxy war?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I'm not going to go beyond what I've said, which is that our concerns remain about where this is going, which is why we all have to work together to hasten the day that the violence ends. And I would also remind that it is the regime that has it in its hands to end this any day that it chooses to, and they are the ones who bear the brunt of the burden of the violence that's going on."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can I '' but why are you making a moral distinction between what the Iranians are doing and what the Russians are doing?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm not making any moral distinctions."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I mean, you're placing more of an onus and a burden on the Iranians when the Russians actually have more influence because they're the ones holding up a UN Security Council resolution, they're the ones feasibly presenting '' preventing the international community from doing anything, and they're arming the Syrians. So why is --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think we've been very clear about our concerns about the Russian posture vis-a-vis Syria. I myself was quite clear last week from this podium."/>

			<outline text="Go ahead."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Poor Jo has been trying to get a word in edgewise all morning '' all afternoon."/>

			<outline text="Go ahead, Jo."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes. Going back to Iran's influence and whether or not this is a proxy war, how concerned is the United States about the numbers of Hezbollah fighters inside Syria? And do you have any kind of figures on whether these are growing, and how '' yeah? I mean, Hezbollah's obviously backed by Iran."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: You mentioned just now they're sending in new fighters. Are we talking about Hezbollah? Are we talking about Iranian people?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, we're certainly very concerned about growing Hezbollah influence. We're very concerned about Iran's use of Hezbollah to achieve its ends in supporting up '' supporting the Assad regime. I don't think we've made any bones about that. And back to where Elise was, in our conversations with the Russians, we have said very clearly and repeatedly at all levels that if Moscow is concerned about these kinds of things '' they have expressed concern about what could come after Assad, and our point is, what is coming now with Assad still in power '' increasing efforts by extremists of all kinds and by Iran to make trouble that could spread even beyond borders."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So you dismiss Nasrallah's claim last '' three days ago that there are no Hezbollah fighters whatsoever in Syria?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes. We would reject that completely. We are quite confident of nefarious activity by Hezbollah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you have a notion of how many Hezbollah fighters are inside country?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm not going to get into our intelligence assessments, but it's a matter of quite serious concern."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Going back to Burma?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: One more on --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Let's stay on Syria until we're '' yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: The shelling into Turkey has continued today."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you expect an escalation in tension between the two countries?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I'm obviously not going to be predictive here, but the Turks have been very consistent that they are striking back strongly and proportionally every time they take an attack across border. This is extremely dangerous and goes to the point that we've been making about the danger of this conflict spilling beyond borders."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Sorry. How concerned are you about whether it's '' whether perceived or truthful '' of growing resentment from Syrians on the ground that blame the United States for not doing enough, for not providing weapons, for not providing a no-fly zone, and whether that would fuel some of '' sympathy with some of the extremists?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, we're working very hard through Ambassador Ford's contacts, through all of our contacts with the Syrian opposition, not only to advertise and reach out through the programs that we have on the nonlethal side. I think I mentioned that in addition to the 1,200-plus sets of communications gear that we've handed out, we've now trained hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of Syrian oppositionists in all kinds of things from human rights training to civil administration training to supporting the rights of women and students, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="So '' but not everybody in Syria understands those programs or has been touched by them, so we are trying to make it better known what the opportunities are to work with us. We are trying to ensure that those who have benefitted from our training go back into Syria and become trainers themselves so that we can deepen and spread the impact and the effect of these programs. But we have made a policy decision that we are not going to '' that our support will be nonlethal. But we do think it is having an impact, and we think that the alumni of our programs are beginning to spread that word inside Syria as well."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: There are news stories saying that the U.S. has agreed or has allowed Libya to provide the opposition with stinger missiles. Can you confirm that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Has allowed Libya to provide the Syrian --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: The Syrian opposition with stingers."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have any comment on that one way or the other. As you know, the Libyan Government is working hard on its own business now. They've just formed a government. They are working on dealing with the internal security problems inside Libya, and that's the focus of our conversation with them."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can we revisit --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Toria '' hi, sorry '' do you have any information on the attack in Afghanistan over the weekend that killed a female soldier and a CIA operative? Do you know anything more about this attack? Was it targeting U.S. intelligence assets, to your knowledge?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Obviously, I'm not going to talk about intelligence of any kind. I think you're talking about the attack in Kandahar Province --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- which killed a U.S. soldier and another U.S. official. Our understanding of that '' and I will refer you to ISAF because I think they've already spoken to this '' is that this was, in fact, a green-on-green attack where some of our folk got caught in the middle."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So you're not '' does it fall under insider attack?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I think I'm just going to send you back to ISAF because they spoke on this quite extensively at the time."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. Also on Afghanistan, where are we on the post-2014 negotiations for keeping a U.S. presence in Afghanistan? Have those talks begun? Are they progressing?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think we announced when we saw the '' when the Secretary saw President Karzai in New York, that we had named our negotiating teams for the Bilateral Security Agreement, but I don't think we've announced a start date yet for those talks."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Afghanistan?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Afghanistan?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Afghanistan; go ahead."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Is Ambassador Grossman traveling to Afghanistan for this trip?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have anything to announce. I know he was planning some travel, but let me get the details. I don't have the details in front of me --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And there was another --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- and I don't think he's left yet."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: There was another suicide attack in Afghanistan today and in the last few months there have been increase in number of attacks inside Afghanistan. When the withdrawal of troops was announced, was it '' it is '' it will be conditions-based. The conditions hasn't improved yet, so do you think that that policy needs to be reviewed?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: You're talking about the attack in Paktia? Is that the one that you're talking about?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah. ISAF has also spoken today to this one, so I'm going to send you to them for any more details."/>

			<outline text="Said."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Israel?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: The --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Sorry, still Afghanistan?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Still Afghanistan, please."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: There was a young woman who was killed in Herat Province. She was beheaded because she refused to become a prostitute for her in-law family. I just wondered generally if you had a reaction to that, if you knew about the case, and then more generally if '' what measures are being put in place that, post-2014, the rights of women can be ensured in Afghanistan once the international '' the eyes of the international community are somewhat away from the country?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah. We are looking into this incident. We don't have any independent information besides what we've seen in the news reports. Obviously, we condemn violence against women wherever it happens, including in Afghanistan, and we reiterate our own deep commitment to the rights of Afghan women."/>

			<outline text="I think you know that for the past decade, we and the international community have worked intensively with the Government of Afghanistan to advance women and girls' rights not only in the constitution, but in our education programs, in all of the support that we give to the Afghans' own National Action Plan for the Women of Afghanistan, which does things like establishing shelters, referral centers, transit houses for women under threat, for women who've suffered abuse."/>

			<outline text="We are continuing to work on that. We also think that these shelters play a vital role in the implementation of Afghanistan's own 2009 law to eliminate violence against women when they face women in their own '' violence in their own families. But again, we have extensive programs. I can give you a separate brief or put you in touch with all of our people who work on this. We are training prosecutors who specialize in violence against women. We are working to help women who are incarcerated, perhaps falsely or on charges brought under inappropriate circumstances. We're working with refugees and IDPs and all of those kinds of things."/>

			<outline text="So all of our international efforts are designed to create the structures and institutions of the Afghan state to help protect these rights going forward. It's something that we are all committed to, that the Afghan Government and President Karzai is committed to. But it's a long road, and we're going to have to keep working on it. And as we've said, even as we wind down the combat mission, our civilian programs are going to continue in Afghanistan."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Thank you."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: One more?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Still on Afghanistan?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Afghanistan."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: According to the reports, of course, many trainings are going on and Afghanistan is maybe ready by next year to take over their own security. You think U.S. is planning to withdraw earlier than, I mean, next year, earlier than 2014?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think we have all confirmed from the President on down that we are committed to the Lisbon timetable which speaks about full transfer at the end of 2014. Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Rwanda?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Mm-hmm."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: There's a report out of the UN panel of experts which, again, is very clear in saying that the Rwandan Government, specifically the Rwandan Defense Minister, is sort of operationally in control of M23 in Congo and also says the Ugandans have a heavier hand than we've heard about before. I'm just wondering if you have any reaction to this report and what the current status is of your talks with the Rwandans on trying to get them to back off on the M23."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, first of all, I think you're talking about the group of experts report for the DRC sanctions?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah. That report has not yet been officially released. I think you're working off a leak, so I'm not going to comment on it until it's been formally released. I think you know that we've obviously been engaged at the high levels with the Government of Rwanda. The Secretary, as you know, when we were in New York hosted a meeting with both Kabila and Kagame to try to encourage them to work together on these problems, and we're going to remain very much engaged."/>

			<outline text="Please, Justin."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: On Benghazi, one question on Benghazi. There's been sort of an almost constant criticism coming mainly from conservatives that the State Department was wrong when it initially linked the attack to the anti-Muslim video. Now, obviously you all have walked back the idea that it was premeditated, but has the State Department ruled out that the attackers may have been motivated in some way by that video?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Justin, I don't have anything to add to what the Secretary said when she was standing next to Italian Foreign Minister Terzi last Friday. She was asked a version of this question. This is exactly why we have an Accountability Review Board, why we have an FBI investigation, and we really are not going to have any more details on these things or be able to give a final or definitive account until it's done."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I'm not asking for detail or final or definitive --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I'm just asking to '' for you to '' I'm giving you the opportunity to sort of address some of this constant criticism that it is totally wrong to associate this with the anti-Muslim video. And I'm giving you the opportunity to say maybe that constant criticism is too much and is not accurate."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: While I very much appreciate any opportunities that you're giving me here, Justin; I just really don't have any further information to share. As the Secretary said, we just don't have a full picture, even now."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Is that because the '' you're '' you've been given the opportunity to '' you have already been given the opportunity to present incomplete and perhaps part '' only partial information, and it's come back to haunt you?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think the Secretary spoke for all of us, spoke for this building not only on Friday but also in Peru yesterday. I just don't have anything further on Benghazi here."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Toria, do you have a timetable --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Could we go to Israel?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: -- for when you will have the information, when this will be done, or an update at least?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I think the Secretary said herself that '' the day that she announced the ARB, that when she impaneled them and they began working, that she very much hoped that they'd be able to wrap up their work in 60 days. Those were the instructions that she gave them. I think they've been at work now for a calendar week maybe, something like that. So '' but traditionally, these kinds of reports have taken 60- 65 days, so we just have to see."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you think the President was clear in asserting that this was a terrorist attack on September '' what was it, the day after?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm not going to try to improve on anything the President has said here. I'm sorry."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes. Victoria, according to Israeli radio, the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is getting ready to enact a recommendation report by Edmond Levy, or parts thereof, declaring the West Bank not occupied and legalizing outposts. Are you aware of the report and do you have any comment on it?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I haven't seen any of that, but I, in any case, wouldn't comment on something prospectively that another government might do."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. But you do have a position on the status of the West Bank and on the status of these outposts as being illegal, correct?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Our position on settlements has not changed at all."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And you consider the West Bank to be under Israeli military occupation, correct?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Said, as I said, our position on settlements, on any of these things, hasn't changed."/>

			<outline text="Scott. Can we go to --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can we stay on --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Scott's been patient. You want to stay on this part of the world?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah. Well, it's not Israel. It's the Palestinians. Is that all right?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes, it is all right."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I have your blessing?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Scott's blessing you."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you know '' this is a very strange story about a Palestinian --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: What a day. Compliments from Matt, blessings between Scott and Matt. I think we send him to Peru more often. (Laughter.)"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you know anything about this situation with Palestinian students being unable to take SATs, Palestinian students in the West Bank, because of some problem with the SAT booklets being held up in Israeli customs?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I do, and I'm happy to say that we have learned that this issue has now been resolved and more than a hundred '' or about a hundred West Bank students will be blessed to get to take the SAT this coming Saturday. So they should sharpen their number two pencils."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Well, I'm not sure they're blessed."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I was just trying to pick up the theme here."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But blessed? What was the issue? What was the problem?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: My understanding is there was some issue having to do with customs procedures. I would refer you to the Israelis."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But do you know if the U.S. Government got involved with the Israelis to help fix this, or is it just something that it was --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: My understanding is that we were engaged to try to ensure that the West Bank students could sit their SATs."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. And then also on the Palestinians '' there's a report that the Palestinian Ambassador to the United Nations has said '' this is regarding seeking recognition, unilaterally seeking recognition from the Security Council '' the Palestinian Ambassador to the UN says that the only two countries that have come out and said '' really expressed firm opposition to this are Israel and Canada, and that the United States, along with Colombia and Guatemala, who are your traditional allies, I think, along with Palau and all the --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Micronesia. (Laughter.)"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: -- South Pacific islands, have not said firmly that they are opposed to that, and that --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Opposed to what, exactly?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: To the seeking recognition, to the '' asking the General Assembly to recognize them as a non member state. So they say that they have not heard firm opposition from the United States on this or any warning that that kind of a move might draw some penalties from the U.S., whether it's from the Administration or whether it's from Congress; is that correct, to your knowledge?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I haven't seen his comments. If in fact it is correct, it's easy to rectify. Let me start right now by saying we have consistently opposed a Palestinian attempt to upgrade their status at the UN outside the framework of a negotiated settlement, and we will continue to do so."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. And does that mean that you have also told them that, ''Hey, if you go ahead and do this, there are certain '' we have their laws in the United States that would require action against you,'' correct?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: As you know, the Secretary has met regularly with President Abbas. He should be in no doubt about our position on this --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- and concerns about the potential ramifications."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay, and then just --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can we go to Benghazi?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Hold on. And then just on that, so you're telling me right now that you have gone to the Palestinians and told them that they shouldn't do something. And yet when you're asked about Israel, you say ''We wouldn't comment prospectively on what another government might do.''"/>

			<outline text="Can you square that for me?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I was being --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Is this not a prospective thing that the Palestinian Government might do, and you're telling them not to do it?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I was being '' Matt?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And yet, if it's an Israeli prospective thing, you're not going to tell them one way or the other?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I was being asked about something that I hadn't seen, that purportedly the Israelis are going to do internally. It wasn't even clear to me what they were going to do. This goes to a position that the Palestinians may take in the UN where we sit, where obviously we are Security Council members and we are going to talk to them about our concerns about it."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes, but ''may'' take being the operative word. So you're perfectly willing to tell the Palestinians what they can and can't do --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well we've had '' we had measures --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: -- but the Israelis don't get that same treatment?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Matt, we had measures taken last year and we are continuing that conversation."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Well, but can I just follow up? I mean, obviously you're opposed to the attempt for them to get recognition unilaterally at the UN, but can you really expect them to just wait indefinitely to '' through '' there is no chance of negotiations restarting anytime soon. And, I mean, are they supposed to wait like another 30 years to see if negotiations go through? I mean, is there any other remedy to help them get some kind of recognition, some kind of middle ground or something?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Elise, you know where we are on this very well, which is --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Nowhere."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- that all of our efforts are focused on trying to get the two parties to talk to each other, to communicate with each other, to set the conditions so that they can have direct negotiations. That's the only way we're going to get through this, and we're not going to give up on that and we're going to keep working on it."/>

			<outline text="Scott, who has been patient."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Colombia --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: -- opening talks with FARC. It seems that the Venezuelans are playing a more productive role than they have in the past. Any thoughts about that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I frankly don't have anything on a role that the Venezuelans may or may not be playing. We are obviously focused on the process that President Santos has set in place and we are supportive of it and we'll be watching closely."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can you take that question, though? I think that '' I mean, you don't have anything on what the Venezuelans '' maybe not in your guidance book, but you don't have anything on what the Venezuelans are doing as far as these '' as the FARC --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm happy to look into whether our folks --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Could you? Thank you."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- have any issues that they are interested in with regard to a Venezuelan role."/>

			<outline text="Goyal."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And what about '' how you are supporting the Colombia FARC talks?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, this is '' these are direct talks. We're obviously not involved, we're not in the middle of it. But we are being briefed regularly by the Colombians, and we're very '' we're supportive of their effort to get to the peace that they deserve."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Just staying in that region, you spoke yesterday about the Cuban exit visa thing, correct?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah. Never mind, then."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I did, yeah, quite extensively, in fact, making clear that while this may look like a good move on paper, there are other restrictions in place that will allow the Cuban Government to continue to have controls."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Going back to Burma?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: This '' as far as this multi-talented organization --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Multi-talented, yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: -- navigation to Burma is concerned, are they '' one, are they meeting with the '' Aung San Suu Kyi? And two, are they talking about only human rights or also as far as opening, I mean, investment? And also, finally, the release of political prisoners and also end of emergency rules and regulation imposed by the military rule for 20 years?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, this was a human rights delegation, the first of what we hope will be many. As you know, we have human rights dialogues with many countries around the world, so this was focused on those issues. Andy asked the political prisoners question. I'm sure that issue came up, but I don't have any details. When Assistant Secretary Posner gets back, we'll do what we can to get you some more details on that issue."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: How long you think Burmese will wait for '' this change will come out?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Will wait for what change?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: As far as political prisoners and other emergency rules and regulations to be uplifted."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, again, I'm not going to predict the patience of the Burmese people, but we have all spoken out about the need to get to zero in terms of political prisoners, and we're continuing to work with the Government of Burma on that."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can we go back to Libya, please --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yep."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: -- and human rights as well? I don't know if you had the opportunity to see yesterday a report from Human Rights Watch on '' actually, it came out this morning, sorry '' about the executions that they've catalogued that happened in the days surrounding the death of Muammar Qadhafi. I just wondered what the United States's comment was on the fact there seems to have been a lot of summary executions and that these people weren't brought to trial as perhaps the international community would've liked."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, first, with regard to the findings outlined in Human Rights Watch report, which allege that war crimes took place last year in Libya, we are urging the Government of Libya to genuinely investigate all these claims and to prosecute any perpetrators in a manner consistent with Libya's international obligations."/>

			<outline text="Similarly, with regard to Qadhafi's death, we have regularly urged the Government of Libya to continue to investigate the circumstances, and it's very important to hold those responsible to account. This is part of the '' not only the judicial maturation of Libya, but also part of the ground that they need to plow for national reconciliation."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But are you confident they're doing that? I mean, it would seem a year on, Human Rights Watch has been out to come out with something which they say they believe to be true. Have you heard back from the Libyan Government on your requests for further investigation?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We have an extensive dialogue with the Libyans on all aspects of their justice system moving forward. I would note that, as the Secretary said in her speech last Friday, one of the things that we've been doing with the Government of Libya is training lawyers, judges, civil society to strengthen the underpinnings. Remember that they not too long ago were a authoritarian regime. But it's no secret that this is a fragile and very new democracy. They've only just elected a new Libyan Prime Minister. So they were operating within a transitional governing structure for a very long time, and we need to now support them as they take the next steps on all of these issues."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And I wondered, on Benghazi, if you're aware of reporting that the authorities have apparently singled out a leader of Ansa al-Sharia, Ahmed Abu Khattala, as the commander of the attack on Benghazi on September 11, if you had any information about that."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I am not, from this podium, going to get into any of these details of arrests or prosecutions or any of it. We're going to leave all of that to the FBI as they work with the Libyans to both investigate and '' but obviously, we are committed to ensuring that those who did this are going to come to justice."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Thank you."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Thank you."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: (Inaudible.)"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Oh. Sorry. We got Lalit in the back."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah. India and Australia today announced that they would be starting negotiations on a civilian nuclear pact. You know U.S. are the first country to have similar agreement with India, a couple of years ago. How do you see this development, the announcement by the two governments?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I hadn't seen that Australia and India are moving forward but, as you know, we work very closely on these issues with Australia around the world. So I'm sure that we were '' we'll be in touch as we go forward."/>

			<outline text="Thank you very much."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Thank you."/>

		<outline text="Latest Jackson Jr. probe clouds political, legal future - chicagotribune.com">

			<outline text="Link to Article" type="link" url="http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/politics/clout/chi-latest-jackson-jr-probe-clouds-political-legal-future-20121016,0,7229719.story"/>

			<outline text="Wed, 17 Oct 2012 18:56"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="Out of sight for months and seeking re-election in weeks, Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.'s return to Congress by voters may be virtually assured, but a new federal investigation of the South Side Democrat has made his political and legal future even more tenuous."/>

			<outline text="The probe by federal prosecutors in Washington into whether Jackson misused campaign funds is but the latest example of how the once-bright future of a 17-year congressman with big political aspirations greatly dimmed after his involvement with imprisoned former Gov. Rod Blagojevich four years ago."/>

			<outline text="A source close to Jackson, who was not authorized to speak publicly about the congressman's situation, said Tuesday that there was no change in Jackson's status as a candidate for re-election but cautioned that matters surrounding the latest federal investigation were &quot;all in the lawyers' hands now.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="The look at Jackson's finances is an &quot;ongoing inquiry,&quot; according to a federal source familiar with the probe. Another source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the investigation into campaign finances has been ongoing &quot;for months&quot; and that vendors to Jackson's campaign are among those being questioned in the case."/>

			<outline text="On Tuesday, a woman who identified herself as a co-owner of a suburban office furniture company told the Tribune that federal authorities contacted the business within the past month or so to tell the operators they would be receiving a federal subpoena for records connected to a purchase of furniture by Jackson's campaign committee."/>

			<outline text="Campaign finance records show that Jackson's campaign committee purchased office furniture from the company for $8,000 in September 2010."/>

			<outline text="Jackson's last real power lies in remaining a member of Congress. Though he potentially faces prosecution, his title as congressman could provide him with a bargaining chip to trade with authorities in exchange for avoiding a contentious prosecution or stiffer penalty."/>

			<outline text="Many top Democrats acknowledge there are no last-minute preparations to replace Jackson on the Nov. 6 ballot because they don't believe he'll drop out and is all but a shoo-in to win in a 2nd Congressional District drawn to heavily favor Democrats, and the congressman in particular."/>

			<outline text="Under state election law, Democratic leaders have only until Monday '-- 15 days before the election '-- to pick a replacement candidate should Jackson opt to remove his name from consideration. After that, Jackson's name would appear on the ballot. Should he decide later to resign, a special election would be held several months down the road."/>

			<outline text="Top Chicago Democrats also said privately that they believe Jackson's tenure in Congress may be short-lived, due to the new federal investigation but also in light of his drama-filled summer. Jackson's camp offered few details about his June medical leave from the House that finally led to the revelation in August that he was being treated for bipolar disorder."/>

			<outline text="Jackson has not campaigned publicly, and spotting him has become fodder for gossip websites. The Daily reported that it found Jackson outside his DuPont Circle home in Washington smoking a cigar Monday. Jackson told the site he's &quot;not well&quot; and visits a doctor twice a day at a nearby hospital. The Daily also said it confirmed that Jackson had shown up twice last week at a D.C. bar with a group of people that included men and women."/>

			<outline text="In 2008, Jackson faced federal scrutiny over his involvement in trying to secure President Barack Obama's former U.S. Senate seat from Blagojevich. Jackson's political stock rapidly declined amid allegations that a wealthy supporter and longtime friend, Raghuveer Nayak, offered Blagojevich up to $6 million to appoint the congressman to fill Obama's Senate vacancy."/>

			<outline text="Nayak, who was arrested on unrelated federal fraud charges in June, had told federal investigators that Jackson asked him to raise campaign money for Blagojevich in hopes the then-governor would appoint the congressman to the seat, sources familiar with the investigation have told the Tribune."/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="My children, the reality is Lame Cherry is the Bob Woodward of the 21st century in breaking stories for years, and for the uncovering of ANALGATE, the hostage gone anal rape and murder election fiasco of the Obama 2012 campaign."/>

			<outline text="You have lived weeks in the future with this blog, now live months in telling you what took place, as now even CO Jones of Western Journalism has heard the rumors coming directly from inside the White House."/>

			<outline text=" This operation was focused on many things and the chief of them deals with the disarming of American Soldiers in Afnamistan when Leon Panetta visited there. As this blog exposed there were numbers of ops who were furious over what the murder of bin Laden's corpse unleashed in the retaliation mass assassination of the Obama SEALS in Team Six."/>

			<outline text="The regime was operating in fear, and it is why Muchelle was exposed in that bizarre reach out to dead Soldiers families in pretending the regime actually cared for the Soldiers. They were afraid people in this group were going to go postal.That is what was part of this Chris Stevens hostage set up, as Obama has a number of ghosts he exercises in wanting to replace every President in his living history.Teddy Kennedy got the John Kennedy mantel. The Obamacare was LBJ. Nixon is the machinations of the regime in covering up his crimes. Carter is this Iranian hostage scenario. Reagan is disarmament. Clinton is black President and Bush41 and 43 is the realignment of the Middle East with Obama's people and not Bush people."/>

			<outline text="Analgate had many facets to it in planning as it was replacing bin Laden's bounce, but it was more in the Muslim Brotherhood was contracting for greater payments. The associates who set this drama up were the same negotiating team who wet up the drug train for al Qaeda out of Obama's narco communists in South America and al Qaeda running it in Africa and Asia out of Afghanistan."/>

			<outline text="This operation tails back into Lebanon and Egypt as staging points, and it was in this mix that the same Islamocommunists staged the murder and rape as they knew Obama was going to be blackmail material. This is about Iran and their safeguarding and you can find not far in this old KGB contractors who provided intelligence support, as they are furious yet over Khadaffi and what is taking place in Syria with Assad.They see their former billionaire partners being picked off and it akin to what the KGB did in neutralizing Clinton policy in selling nukes to Iraq and Iran."/>

			<outline text="In layers, this was like Obama's birther documents as much as the 300 million he took in to his 2008 campaign which was laundered off of credit cards. The same contractors who assisted Obama have been the same contractors starting all of these revolutions, and the same corp group who Obama contracted with in trusting them."/>

			<outline text="It really pissed these people off in what Obama did on that God and Jew plank on the DNC convention, as this was Palestine's moment and it started the hot head campaign which did not take a great deal of fanning the flames to &quot;teach Obama a lesson&quot;, so he would come through with the nation for Palestinians the next time."/>

			<outline text=" It was compartmentalized and handed to Obama. For effect, he was not told the specifics, but only hostages would be taken and rescued.Hillary Clinton knows a great deal more in her intelligence end."/>

			<outline text="I have mentioned that Panetta and Patraeus know a great deal more, in the digitals coming out of the chatter there, spilled the greater portion of this tale."/>

			<outline text="This is now the story which is leaking out in torrents confirming what this blog has broken as Egypt, Libya and Lebanon blackmail Obama. Iran is not far behind in the machinations."/>

			<outline text="Hillary Clinton is running scared on this part of it and is why she is eating the blame. The large players know and they know the Clintons took the security away for this Obama hostage taking, and they know Hillary told Obama it was in exchange for a new position.If Obama won, Hillary was looking at the Supreme Court in what the payment was to be she knew she would never collect on, as it had to do with the reality of this was about Romney getting elected as the hostage crisis was not to end until January 2013."/>

			<outline text="There are still in the ledger Obama has, a layout of hostages in the Rose Garden as that location was most important to Obama dealing with Jimmy Carter held hostage there in his Rose Garden Strategy."/>

			<outline text="Mr Obama has been making a great deal of enemies in the old Muslim order. This had Palestinian catalyst, but what took place in Benghazi had players who took down the Team Six helo."/>

			<outline text="All of this is starting to spill out. Was first here as always."/>

			<outline text="October 15, 2012 By C.O. JonesI received a phone call from an old friend that has been in Washington D.C. for years and is fairly well-connected politically. What she told me was ugly and sinister, yet very compelling. She said she had received information from someone high up in White House circles, and wanted my thoughts. No, there is no leaked email, no concrete proof, and this article is based on ''hearsay.'' I'm not one that usually engages in or repeats hearsay, but if this is true, it could be the biggest story in 50 years.According to her, Barack Obama, wanting an ''October Surprise,'' had secretly arranged with the Muslim Brotherhood for a kidnapping of our ambassador. Then sometime in October before the election Obama was to orchestrate some great military action to rescue Ambassador Stevens, causing all of America to cheer Obama's strong foreign policy and bravery and making him look like a hero. After all, his supposed killing of Osama Bin Laden bounce had long since faded. Thus, sweeping him to victory in November. Imagine the headlines and talking points. The election would be a lock. The Muslim Brotherhood has every reason to want Obama re-elected in November and have an American President sympathetic to their causes. Not to mention an administration filled with Muslim appeasers. Therefore, they agreed to aid in these theatrics. Unfortunately for Ambassador Stevens and three others, the Brotherhood could not control the hired thugs that were to perform the kidnapping and things escalated and four American lives were lost. Panic set in at the White House and with little time to place blame as far away from Obama as they could, they settled on a ridiculous fairy tale about an irrelevant video posted four months prior on YouTube and ran with it. Barack Obama even ran with it after evidence showed he knew better and ran with it all the way to his speech at the U.N.So now, they are admitting it was a terrorist attack. They are admitting that the State Department had denied requests for more security from Washington, but nobody told them. Blame anyone but Barack Obama. I'm betting the White House is smirking and perfectly happy to be accused of having a breakdown in communication as opposed to the alternative. This scenario, if true, more than satisfies my common sense gland."/>

			<outline text="My children, it is time to lay the law down on a subject and that is cannibalizing humans is criminal."/>

			<outline text="That might sound as something everyone should be aware of, like sawing off your neighbor's ass for an ass steak for the grill would be something to end you up in prison, but the reality is in this world of evil being called good and good being called evil, things and situations must be defined as the human exterminators who are the elite have been busy for a generation in defining heinous acts as lawful, just to keep the mobs from overbreeding and taking back all that was stolen from them by the cartels."/>

			<outline text="The subject in this is about ABORTICIDE. There is no such things as legal abortion, as abortion in nature is natural. Abortion is when a deer doe during hard winters absorbs a fawn back into her system so it does not develop. Abortion is miscarriage in human women when the womb  recognizes a cell structure forming a baby is not going to survive or endanger the mother.Aborticide is the act of a global elite in eugenics or class extermination, setting out propaganda that a baby is tissue and that a mother should end that life by artificial means for whatever conditioning the elite have put out in propaganda from birth control to the planet is over populated."/>

			<outline text="I will not delve into the Spiritual, psychological and physical harm this billion dollar industry has done to women worldwide by this indoctrination due to increased cancers to women being tormented for years in dealing with this, because I have spoken of this before. The matter though is now before all of us, that American companies are producing new lines of products for you to consume which are utilizing the DNA structure of a dead infant,  murdered by this cartel in an aborticide in the Netherlands in 1972."/>

			<outline text="I'm going to name this child, Dan, as the Israelite Danites are from this region, and calling this HEK 293 just is far too removed, even if HEK Stands for Human Embryonic Kidney tissue."/>

			<outline text="What no one has ever spoken of and is exclusive to this blog is the reality of that number 293."/>

			<outline text="That number was not just chosen out of Dutch thin air, but it means that as you are lied to in this being just the tissue of one dead baby from the Netherlands.....DAN, as he will be called here, the reality is as you know, that for there to be a 293, there had to be 292 OTHER SAMPLES cannibalized by science."/>

			<outline text="Now back track in this a bit in you know about trimesters and how little babies are. You also know that they did not just stop at 293, but there were probably 1293 other samples at least.As you are pondering that disgusting chopping up of  body parts, you know that a fetus kidney probably did not have 200 pieces to be chopped up, so the logical conclusion is, this was a quite developed baby, or in fact, this &quot;one sample&quot; now storming the world for food testing, was in fact part of hundreds of babies murdered by the cartel, and these ghouls on government grants were cannibalizing thousands of dead children in laboratories in Europe all for exploiting those body parts."/>

			<outline text="Yes, they will state this was legal, but I would state that Germans experimenting on Jews was legal in 1940 as were Japanese experimenting on Koreans, so if that is the case of legalities for research, why not just dig up all those holocaust Jews and Koreans and let's all make some real profits out of this, as this is all moral and legal."/>

			<outline text="The process for Dan's kidney was to mix it's cells in the 293 phase with a calcium solution which turned it into.........this whiz bang cell structure which all these major companies for years have been using for testing and making a fortune off of this dead child."/>

			<outline text="This all changed recently in a company called Senomyx found a way to rig Dan's kidney cells to make it respond as a tongue, yes the correct term is a taste receptor in order to &quot;taste&quot; sugar, salt and other goodies which companiese like Pepsi and Hershey are contracting for."/>

			<outline text="Yes why employ humans to taste test food products when one can have a dead baby's kidney  chopped up, doused with lab experiments to turn it into a tongue that tastes everything you are going to be eating in the year ahead."/>

			<outline text="As a behaviorist expert in animal and plant genre, it fascinates me completely that Dan is going to be taste testing all of your sodas, chips, chocolates and only corporate America knows what for billions of people.This puzzles me as you can taste for example apples as I can. Some of you might like a McIntosh, some a Golden Delicious, some a Braeburn, some a Honeycrisp and some a Wealthy, and in all of those flavors each person will taste sour, sweet, tart and apple essence in which they will produce a preference.Just like you might take acetaminophen for a headache and it will work, but ibuprofen might work better in my chemistry."/>

			<outline text="Dan is who the industry has chosen, and it is Dan's receptors which are reacting and it is Dan who will be deciding what he likes in 1 out of 8 billion people sipping on Pepsi, the choice of a new generation and an aborticided generation."/>

			<outline text="The industry on this reality alone should be paying me a brain fee for pointing this out, in what if a Netherlands boy's kidney cells turned into a tongue tastes different from yours which they do.Now of course they are going to say this is not some porno tongue slathering around in a petrie dish, but as you do not taste with your ears, but with your tongue, this is a tongue of a dead baby from Europe being engineered to lap at Pepsi products."/>

			<outline text="What I would like to know is just how many thousands of these cells are housed in these multi billion dollar companies of dead babies in some type of cemetery slide for obscene profits?"/>

			<outline text="Senomyx  has 70 patents using Dan's kidney cells."/>

			<outline text="In this age of Muchelle Obama hating fat children and Michael Bloomberg warring on sugar, I ask what the hell is wrong with sugar as everyone likes it, including plants and animals, that Pepsi has to find &quot;new derived ingredients&quot; for beverages?"/>

			<outline text="What in the hell, literally from holocaust camps is something &quot;derived&quot; that is called a &quot;sweetener&quot; that replaces sugar?Is it more of that aspartame poison?"/>

			<outline text="The reason I want to know is as an exclusive here, I can tell you that Americans were lied to in nutrasweet as I did the first taste tests and you honestly thought it was sugar. That was BECAUSE IT WAS SUGAR. It was not until the first batches had cleared and conned Americans into thinking nutrasweet tasted better than sacharyn, that the companies started dumping the real product and poisoning people, and people like trusting idiots knew this tasted like crap, but still kept on drinking it.....DUE TO PRECONCEIVED PROGRAMMING NOTIONS THAT WHAT ORIGINALLY TASTED SWEET MUST BE NOW SWEET AND THEY COULD NOT BE WRONG NOW."/>

			<outline text="That is one hell of a lawsuit if that fact ever got out, and the John Edwards lawyers owe me a big finders fee in pointing that out."/>

			<outline text="Meanwhile back at human cannibalism, as that is what this is for profit."/>

			<outline text="If &quot;derived&quot; things are so poisonous in testing that they require Dan's tongue, then they should not be around later to put on your tongue. There are no excuses for this in a world of sugar so plentiful that Brazil turns it into ethanol for fuel, that sugar should not be flowing from all venues as sugar is a very good product.In India it is a flavoring. In medicine it literally is a disinfectant for wounds. I have noted here how it will in an inflamed eye actually cure it as it has for my livestock often."/>

			<outline text="The point being, sugar is natural as plants produce it, but it is not natural to be testing whatever &quot;derived&quot; things are, for the simple reason some damn company which makes chemicals is looking for a way to unload on the public some poison, to cut rural farmers out of the profits they receive by growing things which produce sugar."/>

			<outline text="It is past time literally that all of this Human testing from baby tissue is not only shut down, but given a proper burial. There are human and animal cell  structures which can be utilized for this in consenting people and animals which can be harvested humanely while maintaining their lives. If not in animals, the meat industry produces millions of pounds of kidney tissue these ghouls can play with which is not repulsive nor immoral."/>

			<outline text="The greatest cause of death in America is aborticide each year. That is a fact. America is sinful enough without the reality that the greatest cause for 10 out of 10 Pepsi drinkers to choose Pepsi is a dead baby's kidney Frankenstein turned into a tongue for taste tests."/>

			<outline text="These things just do not happen my children. Someone in the cartel dreamed this up. Someone  figured out that chemical poisons could poison people while cutting out the farmers from growing sugar in taking money they would use to empower other people in purchases or just might donate to Conservative candidates for government."/>

			<outline text="Everyone of these steps in this has been plotted out and backed by the same cartel which installed foreign bred Obama into 1600 Penn Avenue. It always sounds insane, but there is always method to the madness and it is always about how have the few rule the many while the masses are exterminated."/>

			<outline text="A dead baby murdered and used to create some new poison to murder billiions. Sounds like something out of the Nazi and Tojo biological weapons arsenal, and yet it is all through world industry and being made excuses for."/>

			<outline text="Morally this all needs to be outlawed and farming must return to producing wholesome products like sugar to feed people."/>

			<outline text="The good part in this is, that even on Google in searching for aborted fetus pictures as the search protocol brings up Soylent Pepsi and other issues focusing on this, so the message is getting out."/>

			<outline text="Do you really want to be drinking and eating products which were verified by a dead baby's kidney mutated into a tongue?"/>

			<outline text="Link to Article" type="link" url="http://www.caseyresearch.com/cdd/syria-energy-based-proxy-war-making"/>

			<outline text="Wed, 17 Oct 2012 04:28"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="By Marin Katusa, Chief Energy Investment Strategist"/>

			<outline text="The Vietnam war wasn't really about Vietnam. Spaniards may have fought in the Spanish Civil War, but the real opponents were elsewhere. US and Soviet machinations in Afghanistan in the late 1970s had little to do with liberating a repressed population."/>

			<outline text="They were all proxy wars, struggles between superpowers that chose to fight their battles in faraway lands and inflict their collateral damage on other peoples instead of their own."/>

			<outline text="Each war had a cover. Each time the superpowers of the world got involved '' overtly or covertly '' to right an arguable wrong. Really though, they were there to fight each other. To weaken each other. To claim moral superiority and political preeminence. And to win the right to use the proxy nation's resources and location to their advantage."/>

			<outline text="It would be lovely to think such wars are a thing of the past... but another proxy war is rapidly developing."/>

			<outline text="This one pits the world's biggest oil producer against one of its largest customers. It positions a nation with a stranglehold on European gas supplies against one with newfound gas wealth and dreams of future exports. It involves pipelines and terrorism and sovereignty and religion and contrasting concepts of human rights and political progress."/>

			<outline text="It is Syria."/>

			<outline text="In its simplest description, the war in Syria is a civil war, a revolt against a tyrannical dictator who would rather slaughter his own people than relinquish his power."/>

			<outline text="Of course, it is more than that. Syria is a complicated place and an important player in Middle Eastern and global relations."/>

			<outline text="First and foremost, Syria is the third arm of the anti-Israel and anti-West Iran-Hezbollah-Syria alliance, a Shia threesome that opposes the set of Sunni-led powers in the Middle East. (Syria's population is dominated by Sunni Muslims, but the country is controlled by the Assad family, who are Shias.)"/>

			<outline text="In addition, Syria buys some $150-million worth of arms from Russia every year and hosts a Russian naval port on its Mediterranean Sea coast. It has been lorded over by the ruthless Assad family for more than 40 years, democracy a forbidden notion. And it is situated at a continental crossroads, between the energy riches of Eurasia and the Middle East and the energy-hungry markets of Europe."/>

			<outline text="To turn Syria toward the West '' even just slightly '' would be a huge victory for the West and a major loss for Russia, Iran, Hezbollah, and even China."/>

			<outline text="This much has been clear since Syrians started rising up against Assad 19 months ago. Less clear has been where Syria's revolt would lead. With the Western public weary of war, economic heavyweights China and Russia vehemently opposed to foreign intervention in Syria, and a US presidential election looming, no one has even proposed the idea of direct action in Syria."/>

			<outline text="No one has proposed much at all, in fact, because it seemed there was no workable answer."/>

			<outline text="Then, last week, Turkey started sending shells across the border into Syria. The attack was supposedly in response to Syrian shells that strayed across the border, but Turkey's mortar offensive lasted five days. A few days prior, Turkish politicians approved legislation that allows their forces to conduct military operations in Syria."/>

			<outline text="Soon after the shelling stopped, Turkish jets intercepted a civilian flight en route from Moscow to Damascus, forcing it to land in Turkey on the pretext that it was carrying Russian military equipment in violation of international law."/>

			<outline text="Suddenly, after 19 months of speculation, it became clear. Syria will not be a Libya, let alone an Iraq. There will be no direct interventions, no united international action."/>

			<outline text="But it will be a proxy war."/>

			<outline text="And the key instigator? Not Iran, nor Israel. The country amping up covert involvement in Syria is none other than the United States. And the reason is energy."/>

			<outline text="The United States is supporting Syria's freedom fighters and green-lighting Turkey's cross-border clashes with Bashar's fighters because America is increasingly fearful of Russia's growing stranglehold on worldwide energy resources."/>

			<outline text="At least, that's how I see it. Here's why."/>

			<outline text="Russia's Energy StrangleholdVladimir Putin loves being in control of other countries' energy supplies. Thankfully for him, he found himself the perfect job."/>

			<outline text="As Russian president, Putin controls roughly 8.5% of the world's oil production and 19% of global natural-gas output. His country is also home to 40% of the world's uranium enrichment capacity and a fair chunk of global uranium resources."/>

			<outline text="Those are big numbers, and Putin knows it. Since starting his first term as president in 1999, he has worked tirelessly to increase Russian heft in the global energy arena. He invested in Russia's oil fields to reverse production declines and position Russia as one of the world's top producers. He encouraged gas exploration in a push that delineated 1,600 trillion cubic feet (TCF), a full quarter of the world's known resources. And he built new oil and gas pipelines that bypass troublesome countries and access new markets."/>

			<outline text="(We dedicated an entire issue of the Casey Energy Report to Putin's quest for resource power, a phenomenon we call &quot;Putinization,&quot; and it led us to an investment recommendation.)"/>

			<outline text="The announcement last week that Russia will not sign an extension of the Megatons to Megawatts deal (which sees Russian facilities downblend highly enriched uranium from old warheads to generate half of the fuel that feeds US nuclear reactors) is just the latest Putin maneuver aimed at gaining power through resource control. (I will write more about this '' and the huge impacts it will have on US and global uranium markets '' in a coming Dispatch.)"/>

			<outline text="The United States is finally figuring it out: Putin is basing Russia's foreign relations first and foremost on energy. Why else would Putin be befriending Israel? (The answer is natural gas, as I explained in this August Dispatch.)"/>

			<outline text="Putin's plan is working. With every new gas supply deal, every Arctic oil discovery, every meter of new pipeline laid, Russia gains international leverage in a world starved for energy resources."/>

			<outline text="Global heft is like the total energy of a contained system '' it cannot be created nor destroyed, but can only change form. Russia's growing global influence is sapping significance from other superpowers'...including the United States."/>

			<outline text="Of course, America is now doing what it can to stem this changing tide. Syria is front and center of that effort."/>

			<outline text="Rippling Ramifications of Regime Change in SyriaWhy would a regime change in Syria impact relations between Russia and the world? For many reasons, some very general and others very specific."/>

			<outline text="The generality is that Russia has supported Bashar al-Assad long and loud. The fact is that an Assad-led Syria serves Russian interests."/>

			<outline text="As long as Assad is in charge in Syria, the Iran-Syria-Hezbollah alliance will persist. It is this alliance of Shia strongholds that keeps the US-oriented Sunni side of the Middle East in check, a delicate balance that could erupt into riots and wars if disturbed."/>

			<outline text="Within that balance, the US relies on Sunni Saudi Arabia and Qatar to maintain its profile in the Middle East. However, Saudi is no longer the stalwart of stability it once was (read about Saudi's troubles), and US-Saudi relations have been on a downward slide for several years (in large part because of the demise of the petrodollar)."/>

			<outline text="So that's the generality: A reformed Syria '' one that ousted its dictator with Western support and one where the Sunni majority might finally be in control '' would give the US an opportunity to create a new Middle Eastern foothold. That is something Putin is dead set against."/>

			<outline text="As for the specifics: the longer that war rages in Syria, the bigger Putin's head start will be in building yet another pipeline to deepen Europe's reliance on Russian natural gas."/>

			<outline text="Russia is already working on the South Stream, a gas pipeline from Russia to Italy via the Black Sea, Romania, and Greece that would complement the Nord Stream in locking Europe into reliance on Russian gas. The main competitor to South Stream is the Trans-Anatolian Pipeline (TANAP), which would run across Turkey to connect Europe to Azerbaijan's massive Shah Deniz gas field."/>

			<outline text="As long as war is raging in Syria and shells are straying across the border into Turkey, TANAP won't see much progress'... and Putin will move closer to beating out Azerbaijan in supplying southern Europe with gas."/>

			<outline text="The US wants Assad to go just as much as Putin wants him to stay. Weakening the Shia threesome of Iran, Syria, and Hezbollah has long been a key American goal. To not just weaken that alliance but to turn one of its members into a Western ally would be as good as seeing Cuba renounce communism."/>

			<outline text="To justify its Syrian ends, the West has worked hard to portray Russia as a villain, to portray Putin as a dictator siding with the butcher Assad. To do this, the ends are clearly more important than the means."/>

			<outline text="Take Russia's arms deals with Syria. These contracts go back years and are completely legal. No matter. From the moment Syria's uprising turned into a war, the US has been demonizing Russia for these weapons shipments. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton went so far as to accuse the Russian government of instigating civil war in Syria, by simply delivering weapons that had been contracted a year prior."/>

			<outline text="But shady arms deals aren't enough '' the US needs to add fuel to the fire of American anger over Syria. Enter Turkey's latest moves."/>

			<outline text="You see, there is no way that Turkey would have shelled Syria without direct (albeit discreet) approval from the United States."/>

			<outline text="For another, Turkey intercepted that Damascus-bound plane on the same day that US Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta confirmed that a 150-strong US task force had been dispatched to the Jordan-Syrian border to ensure regional security and to &quot;'... determine how best to respond to any concerns in that area.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="The task force will establish a humanitarian buffer zone within Syrian territory, patrolled by US-backed forces from Jordan. Such a zone has long been considered a means to supply rebel groups in Syria and thereby help push Assad out."/>

			<outline text="The airline interception and the arrival of US troops in Jordan are precisely the kinds of moves that can stoke tensions and justify aggression. Anytime you put troops in a region, it creates the possibility that some kind of incident could lead to a shooting match and then a full-out war."/>

			<outline text="The stage is set. To the US public, the poor Syrian rebels are being slaughtered by a tyrannical dictator getting direct support from deep, dark Russia. That means the US government can start directly supporting the rebels '' even if the real reason is to secure a new Middle Eastern ally and to weaken Russia on the way."/>

			<outline text="The war in Syria is a tragedy, with both sides committing terrible atrocities. Unfortunately, Syria's pivotal role in the world's most important energy region means the tragedy is about to get worse. Russia and Iran are deeply invested in Assad; the United States and its Middle Eastern allies would love to see Assad ousted. Regardless of the result, there are a few certainties."/>

The push will require $530 billion of new investment, and Iraq would have to overcome a host of major obstacles; but if it succeeds, this flowing faucet of new supply could well postpone peak oil."/>

			<outline text="Imagine if the Obama administration participated in the creation of an arms pipeline to al Qaeda in Syria '' a ''Fast and Furious'' program running Saudi and Qatari weapons to our terrorist enemies in the Middle East. Then imagine that Vice President Joe Biden looked the American people in the eye during the vice presidential debate last week, and lied about it."/>

			<outline text="It would make Susan Rice's blaming the Benghazi attack on a YouTube video pale by comparison."/>

			<outline text="Yet that is precisely what has happened. The New York Times reported on its front page Monday:"/>

			<outline text="Most of the arms shipped at the behest of Saudi Arabia and Qatar to supply Syrian rebel groups fighting the government of Bashar al-Assad are going to hard-line Islamic jihadists, and not the more secular opposition groups that the West wants to bolster, according to American officials and Middle Eastern diplomats."/>

			<outline text="That conclusion, of which President Obama and other senior officials are aware from classified assessments of the Syrian conflict that has now claimed more than 25,000 lives, casts into doubt whether the White House's strategy of minimal and indirect intervention in the Syrian conflict is accomplishing its intended purpose of helping a democratic-minded opposition topple an oppressive government, or is instead sowing the seeds of future insurgencies hostile to the United States."/>

			<outline text="''The opposition groups that are receiving the most of the lethal aid are exactly the ones we don't want to have it,'' said one American official familiar with the outlines of those findings, commenting on an operation that in American eyes has increasingly gone awry. (Emphasis added)."/>

			<outline text="It is scandal enough that a gun-running program, in which American officials are helping to vet the recipients, is sending weapons to al Qaeda-linked terrorists. But the Times story completely ignores the deeper scandal here: In last week's vice presidential debate, Joe Biden lied about it '-- twice!"/>

			<outline text="In response to a question about Syria, Biden declared that the United States was working to isolate al Qaeda in Syria by ensuring that aid was directed to moderate elements of the Syrian opposition:"/>

			<outline text="We are working hand and glove with the Turks, with the Jordanians, with the Saudis, and with all the people in the region attempting to identify the people who deserve the help so that when Assad goes '-- and he will go '-- there will be a legitimate government that follows on, not an al-Qaeda-sponsored government that follows on."/>

			<outline text="When Paul Ryan challenged Biden's claim, saying that the administration's inaction has allowed al Qaeda to get a foothold in Syria, Biden doubled down, declaring:"/>

			<outline text="We are in the process now '-- and have been for months '-- in making sure that help, humanitarian aid, as well as other aid and training is getting to those forces that we believe, the Turks believe, the Jordanians believe, the Saudis believe are the free forces inside of Syria. That is underway."/>

			<outline text="Both of his statements were untrue. And if the Times story is to be believed, Biden knew his words were untrue when he uttered them."/>

			<outline text="According to the Times, ''President Obama and other senior officials are aware [of the arms diversions to jihadists] from classified assessments of the Syrian conflict.'' Yet Biden said exactly the opposite. He plainly asserted aid was going to ''people who deserve the help'' and ''free forces inside Syria'' and not jihadists."/>

			<outline text="Questions Biden needs to be asked immediately include:"/>

			<outline text="' When were you first briefed on the intelligence findings that most of the arms intended for the ''free forces inside Syria'' are in fact going to ''hard-line Islamic jihadists?''"/>

			<outline text="' If the U.S. has know about these diversions for some time, why did you assure Americans during the vice presidential debate that they were not happening and that we had an effective program in place to make sure weapons got to ''people who deserve help.''"/>

			<outline text="' Who, if anyone, vetted your briefing book for the debate with the points asserting that the arms diversions to jihadists were not happening? Or did you make this up on your own?"/>

			<outline text="This should be HUGE news, particularly in light of the Libya cover-up. Yet it has gotten precious little attention. It's time for the media to start demanding answers from the White House."/>

			<outline text="What did Joe Biden know, and when did he know it?"/>

			<outline text="Who gave Obama the questions in the Crowley campaign commercial for him?"/>

			<outline text="The staged questioners of course who were seeded into the audience."/>

			<outline text="The reality is Barack Obama has a bobble head look which is annoying, from bug eyes, bouncing head and big ears, as he had that annoying cadence about him."/>

			<outline text="The problem is the staged event afterwards which Obama had the crowds standing about him for effect as this was scripted."/>

			<outline text="I did find it amusing the woman who stated she was undecided looked very Romney voting after the debate and the black man who was not impressed with Obama, looked off in the distance."/>

			<outline text="The reality is Candy Crowley and this mob majority was pro Obama from the cheering which was allowed to the Dom attempts by Crowley."/>

			<outline text="For the reality, Obama trying to look the thug, did not give the impression, as Obama retreated and that was telling as Romney ordered him around."/>

			<outline text="Obama was helped by Crowley on the terror issue of Benghazi in  Obama coordinated with CNN on the issue in he at the Rose Garden called it a terror issue while his team was blaming the Christian movie about Islam for it.Problem is no one seems have asked, :&quot;Why is it Mr. Obama knew these were terrorists and the UN Secretary and Hillary Clinton did not?&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Yes there is the rub in this like Mr. Obama knowing bin Laden's DNA was bin Laden's hours and days before it could have possibly been tested, now has the problem of how did he know these were terrorists unless he was in direct contact coordinating with them to take Chris Stevens hostage."/>

			<outline text="The debate was not that memorable, but that coordination with Crowley and CNN which  kept this  secret from the public and the Romney camp, to set up this &quot;gotcha&quot; has now captured Mr. B. Hussein Obama in, how did he know these were terrorists as Panetta, Clinton, Patraeus, Mueller and Rice said absolutely nothing about it, and were feeding a different talking point."/>

			<outline text="Yes Mr. Obama just admitted in this debate with CNN covering that he knew these were terrorists, and Joe Biden was not even in this loop."/>

			<outline text="Barack Obama admitted before the world information no one else had, that Libya was a terror operation, and the only way he could know this was from direct contact with the hostage takers who he employed and they informed him, new terrorists elements Mr. Obama did not employ had infiltrated the operation and murdered these 4 Americans."/>

			<outline text="Someone was grabbing the live feed off the blog and reading it, as in multiple sources on this exclusive, and they were bumping into each other wondering what I was doing about the shop."/>

			<outline text="The story is not the spin in a rancorous debate, and the people who monitor the spiders with the plasma's knew immediately what this blog was posting was a NET QUAKE if the Romney camp, their backers and the internet group figure out what this blog uncoveredThe story is not Romney being corrected on Obama terror speak, but how Obama knew they were all terrorists."/>

			<outline text="Barack Obama was caught with CNN in this question feed set up by that idiot Crowley chiming in on the defense, but the trap for Romney caught Obama in the &quot;prior knowledge&quot; in how he knew when only this blog was breaking the story from Source."/>

			<outline text="Obama in trying to save his teabagger ass just got caught like Jimmy Carter in 1980 blurting out about Stealth technology when Reagan rattled him. Obama was not rattled. This was planned, and B. Hussein and his dolts have no idea what they just admitted to in hostage taking confirmation."/>

			<outline text="GOP hopeful Mitt Romney found himself backtracking during the second presidential debate after moderator Candy Crowley challenged his assertion that President Barack Obama had not referred to recent attacks on Americans in Libya as terrorism."/>

			<outline text="&quot;The day after the attack, governor, I stood in the Rose Garden and I told the American people and the world we are going to find out exactly what happened, that this was an act of terror and I also said that we're going to hunt down those who committed this crime,&quot; Obama explained following Romney's suggestion that the president had been more concerned with fundraising than national security after the death of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens."/>

			<outline text="&quot;I think it's interesting that the president just said something, which is on the day after the attack he went in the Rose Garden and said that this was an act of terror,&quot; Romney replied. &quot;Is that what you're saying? I want to make sure we get that for the record because it took the president 14 days before he called the attack in Benghazi an act of terror.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;Get the transcript,&quot; Obama insisted."/>

			<outline text="&quot;He did, in fact, sir,&quot; Crowley pointed out to Romney."/>

			<outline text="&quot;Can you say that a little louder, Candy?&quot; the president asked Crowley as the audience applauded."/>

			<outline text="&quot;He did call it an act of terror,&quot; the moderator agreed. &quot;It did as well take two weeks or so for the whole idea of there being a riot out there about this tape to come out.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;The administration indicated that this was a reaction to a video,&quot; Romney said, rephrasing his attack with a slight stutter. &quot;It took them a long time to say this was a terrorist act by a terrorist group. And -- and to suggest -- am I correct in that regard?&quot;"/>

			<outline text="DoD continues long relationship with Hollywood as new stealth jets will be seen on silver screen before they are seen in combat"/>

			<outline text="The pentagon has reportedly ''chosen'' the Hollywood re-boot of Superman to introduce the world to the most expensive weapons program in human history, the new F-35 Joint Strike Fighter jet plane."/>

			<outline text="The new stealth jet will appear in Man of Steel, the latest regurgi'... ahem excuse me, ''re-imagined'' Superman adaptation starring Russell Crowe and directed by Zach Snyder."/>

			<outline text="''It was a target of opportunity,'' Phil Strub, the Pentagon's Hollywood liaison, tells Danger Room. ''They liked the idea of having the most modern, the newest fighter aircraft in the background,''"/>

			<outline text="While Strub denies that the fighters have anything to do with the plot, IMDB lists two actors as ''F-35 pilots'' in the film."/>

			<outline text="The F-35 is a single engine jet with stealth capability, built by Lockheed Martin. It is mainly being funded by the Pentagon with some aid from other NATO countries. The program has been somewhat dogged by safety and performance concerns, as well as the fact that it has been estimated that it will cost $1.5 trillion."/>

			<outline text="Last year the defense contractor released a video with a slick rock band playing in front of footage of the jet."/>

			<outline text="As Danger Room points out, The Pentagon has injected advanced military hardware into practically every recent big hollywood action movie. F-22 raptors were prominently featured in Iron Man and Transformers 2. The first Transformers film received record amounts of funding from the Pentagon, as well as active duty troops, tanks, and twelve different kinds of aircraft. Scenes were filmed on military bases and even inside the Pentagon."/>

			<outline text="Of course, the object of placing the latest weapons as well as active duty troops next to fictional super heroes who ''save the day'' is a no-brainer '' it's propaganda 101, and it's been going on for decades."/>

			<outline text="It is common knowledge that after the release of Top Gun in 1986, in which the Pentagon played a major role, recruitment figures increased by a massive 500 percent."/>

			<outline text="The movie was seen as so influential that the Pentagon started to create recruitment ads that just looked like Top Gun:"/>

			<outline text="Most recently, the Pentagon fully sponsored X-Men First Class, combining scenes from the film into recruitment ads and offering exclusive footage to visitors of the army's recruitment website:"/>

			<outline text="Earlier this year, the Pentagon went one further, as the Navy's Special Warfare Command actually commissioned a movie to be made. Act Of Valor, was intended wholly as recruiting propaganda dressed up as a Hollywood movie."/>

			<outline text="The relationship between the military and Hollywood is a cozy one. Filmmakers get access to high-tech, tax-payer funded hardware, and the Pentagon gets to literally re-write the scripts, editing out anything they perceive as portraying the military negatively."/>

			<outline text="However, the Pentagon routinely refuses to cooperate in the making of films such as Apocalypse Now, Platoon and Forrest Gump, because they portray the harrowing reality of war. Ironically it is these films that have gone on to become cinematic classics. In 100 years will anyone still remember mindless X-Men and Transformers movies?"/>

			<outline text="The Pentagon was fully on board with the recent Avengers movie, but pulled the plug on it because it found the portrayal of military hierarchy as ''unrealistic''."/>

			<outline text="Former Hollywood Reporter and pulitzer nominee, David L. Robb, has further exposed the unconstitutional processes involved in the relationship the Pentagon has with Hollywood:"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: All right, everybody. Happy Tuesday. The Secretary is just finishing her program in Latin America and will be returning later this afternoon. I have '' or later this evening '' I have nothing for you at the top."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can I ask you about the series of interviews she gave on this trip? We didn't have one, so we didn't get a chance to ask her directly. But she said she took responsibility related to the Benghazi attack. I just wanted to be clear on what she's taking responsibility for."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, if you have a chance to get up on our website, you will see transcripts of five TV interviews that the Secretary gave yesterday, as she always does when she's traveling and she has TV crews with her or TV correspondents with her. I think she was extremely clear what she's taking responsibility for. She is the head of this Department. She takes responsibility for this Department fully. She's never made any secret of that. That's been her position all the way through this."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: What is she taking responsibility for, though? She just said, ''I take responsibility,'' full stop."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Brad, you can go back and reread that interview. The question was clear."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I have reread it."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: The answer was clear. I'm not going to try to improve on it here."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Why won't you?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Because she was ''"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: She doesn't finish the thought."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: She was extremely clear what she takes responsibility for, which is the operation of this Department, all of the men and women here, and certainly she is personally, as she has said again and again and again since September 11th, committed to getting to the bottom of who did this and learning the lessons that we need to learn from it."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So you said she takes responsibility for the operation of this Department and the people who work here. So she wouldn't be taking responsibility for things like intelligence assessments, per se, because that is something that might not be done by this building; is that correct?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Brad, I am not going to stand here and parse the Secretary's words. She was very clear in her interviews."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Well, if she was so clear, why can't you answer a question like that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I want you to go back and read the interviews."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I have read all of them."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah. I think she was very clear."/>

			<outline text="Go ahead."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: A quick follow-up on matters of security."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Does she, at the end of the day, determine the '' I know she shares with the intelligence people, those who are experts at security. But she takes the final decision in terms of what kind of security you should have on your diplomatic missions?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: She speaks specifically about how security is done in this building in those interviews, as our team that testified, spoke to, but she made very clear that she takes responsibility for this Department."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And a very quick follow-up. If, let's say, there is a couple of proposed security agencies, whether private or government, does she say we will go with this one or with that one?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: That is not the way this works in this building. We've talked about the way these things work extensively. I don't have anything to add here."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Tom Lewis, BBC News."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Could you give your reaction to the British Home Secretary's decision to block the extradition of Gary McKinnon, the British man accused of hacking into U.S. Government computer systems?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Welcome. We miss Kim, but welcome. I guess she's on the road. The United States is disappointed by the decision to deny Gary McKinnon's extradition to face long overdue justice in the United States. We are examining the details of the decision."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: A quick follow-up. How will you --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: You're so polite. (Laughter.) You raised your hand."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I'm British."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: He pauses. It's the British way."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Are you saying that we here are less '' (laughter ) ''"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I made no comparative assessment. I just positively complimented our British guest."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: How will the U.S. proceed, therefore, in --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have anything particular to share with you today. As I said, we're examining the decision."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Was it a bad day for the U.S.-UK relations, especially with '' in the light of the extradition treaty?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think you know that we have an incredible alliance, and that will obviously continue in all of its forms."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Change topic?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes. The Palestinian issue?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Mm-hmm."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: First of all, could you confirm if there was a meeting between the Palestinian President and the King of Jordan and Ehud Barak in Amman last Saturday?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: You're asking me about a meeting between ''"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Are you aware of it?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- three folks in the Middle East, none of whom was American."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But you did not ''"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm going to send you to their spokespeople."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. Fair enough, but '' so you are not aware that the meeting took place?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: As I said, I'm going to send you to their spokespeople to confirm a meeting among them. We speak to what we're up to, obviously."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. Well, Abbas on his part in the Gulf once again spoke about the effort at the United Nations, and he said that this is not in contradiction with our commitment to the two-state solution or to direct negotiation. Can you --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: That what is not, Said? You didn't give me a noun to start that sentence."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Their effort at the United Nation was not in contradiction with negotiation. Do you agree that any effort at the UN on the part of the Palestinians is not in contradiction with the proposed negotiations?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I haven't seen his exact quote, and with all due respect, you mungled it a little bit. So I'm not quite sure what he said. However, our position on all of these issues has not changed. We think the way this needs to be settled is through direct negotiations between the Israelis and the Palestinians. That is the route to a lasting peace between them, not the UN route."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Let me try to untangle what I said."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: He said the following: that their effort at the United Nations would continue, because it is not in contradictions of any negotiations that might be entered to anytime in the future."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Our view on this has not changed '' that the UN route is unproductive, counterproductive, that what we really need is for these parties to be focused on sitting down at the table with each other."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes. I will try to be polite as well. (Laughter.)"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: What a day. (Laughter.)"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Regarding Tibet, Ambassador Gary Locke was spotted paying a visit to Aba Tibetan Autonomous area this September. There was a photo tweeted on Twitter. My '' Aba area is the area where more than 30 self-immolation cases since last year, so I wonder if you could please confirm that, and also if State Department have more information on that. Thank you."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Sure. This stop that he made, that Ambassador Locke made in Aba Prefecture, was part of a broader trip that he made to Chongqing and Sichuan Province in September. While on that trip, he met with government officials, and he participated in events that were designed to advance U.S.-China trade, and he visited the Stilwell Museum. When he was in Aba, he met with a number of local residents, including ethnic Tibetans. You saw the quite poignant photo. Some of them work in the travel industry. He also visited villages and monasteries to learn more about how ethnic Tibetan people live and work and to have a chance to talk to them."/>

			<outline text="I think you know that we have been very clear and very transparent with regard to our views on Tibet and our advocacy for better dialogue between the Chinese Government and the Tibetan people on issues of concern and our grave concern about the rising number of self-immolations."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: How many days was he there, and what is his impression of the area? Because it's heightened '' the security is heightened."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I can't speak to his personal views at the end of that trip. I'll send you to his spokesman at our Embassy in Beijing. I think the trip was three or four days long '' I'm not sure '' between the stops in Chongqing and the stops in Sichuan. But again, our Embassy in Beijing can give you more information."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Is he in the States right now? And then does he plan to share it with '' his experience with the congressional leaders or the Tibetan communities in the United States?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, whenever we have members of Congress visiting China, they always are briefed by Ambassador Locke. The various human rights issues in Tibet always come up, and he shares his impression and they talk together about how to raise these issues with the Chinese Government. He's not shy about that. If the Congress is interested in his trip, I'm sure that he will address any questions that they have."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So he's indeed here in the States?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Frankly, I '' my impression was he was '' he's in Beijing this week. I don't have any information that he is back in Washington this week. But frankly, I didn't check on his status, his physical status, when I came down."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: One final question."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Could you please specify and clarify more about U.S. position regarding self-immolation?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We have done this many times. We have grave concerns about self-immolations in Tibet and about the underlying grievances that the Tibetan people have. And we have consistently urged dialogue between the Chinese Government and the Tibetan people with regard to those grievances."/>

			<outline text="Please. Anything else? No? We're done?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Cuba."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: No, okay."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: No, please."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Oh well."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I wonder if you have a reaction '' well, I hope you would have a reaction to the announcement today from Cuban officials on the exit bans and the exit visas."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: What Brad is referring to is that the Cuban Government today announced changes to their exit permit requirements to allow Cuban citizens to depart the country without explicitly having exit permits. This is consistent with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which provides that everybody ought to have the right to leave any country, including their own, and/or to return to their own country, to come in and out."/>

			<outline text="We obviously welcome any reforms that will allow Cubans to depart from and return to their country freely. We remain committed to the migration accords under which our two countries support and promote safe, legal, and orderly migration. Our own visa requirement remains unchanged. Our understanding is that this exit permit regime is going to take effect on January 14th, so we are analyzing, obviously, all of the details and any implications it may have for our processing, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So just two things with that. Firstly, this was something that the United States had long called for; that's correct?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yes."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Secondly, what --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Very few countries, as you know, have exit permit requirements. I mean, if you want to leave the United States, if you want to leave most countries around the world, if you have a passport, you can go."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And what implication '' you mentioned implications. Just could you spell out what this might mean for certain asylum laws in the United States? And correct me if I'm wrong, there's certain congressional legislation on people who enter the United States from Cuba. Would this change any of that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't think it changes any U.S. laws on the books. I think the question becomes whether more Cubans desire to travel and are applying for visas and all those kinds of things. So obviously, we need to see how it affects the flow of travel. We obviously always urge Cuban families to use legal family reunification and other immigration mechanisms that are already in place."/>

			<outline text="With regard to acts on the books, I think you're '' I assume you're talking about the Cuban Adjustment Act of 1966 which --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I didn't know the year. Sorry."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah. There you go. Before you were born, I think, Brad. Which provides an avenue for Cuban '' most of you, actually '' provides an avenue for Cuban nationals to apply for adjustment of status and become lawful permanent residents of the United States. The Department of Homeland Security is the lead agency on the implementation of that, because it applies to folks who are already in the United States. So I would refer you to them for any specific questions."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And then just lastly on this, this was a '' I mean, in your view, this was a human rights violation, in a sense, because under the Universal Declaration they should have had this right, freedom of movement to leave their own country. Will the United States be offering any carrot to '' I don't know '' incentivize further reforms from the Cuban Government at this point?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, as you know, we've been very outspoken. We are not shy in all of our public and private comments on Cuba that we want to see the human rights of the Cuban people respected. This is certainly a step, but I would advise that even with regard to this step, we await further information, because as I said, it's not being implemented until January 14th. We need to see how it is implemented. For example, we understand that current Cuban passport holders who don't already have an exit permit are going to be required to revalidate their passports before they're allowed to travel. And we would note that the Cuban Government has not lifted the measures it has in place to preserve what it calls the human capital created by the revolution. So the question is going to be whether those other requirements are going to continue to restrict the ability of the Cuban people to take advantage of this change."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So you'd be worried that maybe this new right that's being granted wouldn't be extended to people of certain political convictions, maybe human rights defenders, that have been targeted in the past?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think the point I'm trying to make is that the Cuban Government has kept for itself a couple of other checks on the ability of people to leave freely, including this issue of revalidating passports, this issue of claiming that they can preserve the human capital of the revolution in the country. So we just need to all see how it's implemented."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Victoria?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Has there been any change in your position since yesterday regarding the potential for a truce or a ceasefire during the Eid al-Adha holiday?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have anything further to what I had to say yesterday, Said. I mean, we haven't seen any indications that the Assad regime is serious about stopping the violence."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But this seems to be an idea that is at least gaining some steam, and a lot of people are talking about it. Would you support such a notion?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, we have said repeatedly that we would support any end of the violence in Syria. But we have not seen any indications that Assad is on that program."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And just to follow up on yesterday, now you have supported the observer force in the past. It was small. But now they are talking about a larger force, 3,000."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Who's the ''they,'' Said?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Well, Brahimi. Brahimi is talking about perhaps an observer force of like 3,000 people that are '' that come, let's say, from North African countries, African countries, perhaps Latin America. Would you support such a proposition?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I think we said yesterday that we're not going to comment on putative pieces of a prospective future Brahimi plan until Mr. Brahimi has had a chance to complete his rounds and formally present something to us and to other members of the Security Council. You know our concerns about the way the observer mission worked in the past - that they weren't allowed to actually observe and they weren't allowed to actually move around, and it became a sort of a situation where they were observers in name only. So obviously, any new plan needs to be analyzed in terms of whether the conditions in Syria allow it to be implemented properly."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I've got one on Syria."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND Yeah, okay."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And I apologize if this already came up. I came in late and I've been a little bit under the weather the last few days. Did anyone in this --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We're dropping like flies. You've been my fourth one sick today. Go ahead."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Did anyone in this building know that Prime Minister Erdogan of Turkey was going to meet with President Ahmadinejad from Iran yesterday? And is it still the position of this Department that including Iranians in such meetings is a bad idea?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Including Iranians in multilateral meetings on Syria; is that what you're talking about?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: For example, the Friends of the Syrian People or whatever?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Mm-hmm."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah. We continue to believe that the Iranians are a malign force in this, that they are actively aiding and abetting the Syrian regime and its war machine. So they can halt that activity before we would see them as productive in any multilateral efforts."/>

			<outline text="With regard to the meeting, I frankly don't have any particular information that we had advance notice. We, as you know, coordinate extremely closely with the Government of Turkey on issues having to do with Syria. And our full expectation, based on what we know of Prime Minister Erdogan's position, is that he was, no doubt, extremely frank with Ahmadinejad about the Turkish concerns."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Did you respond yesterday '' and if you did, please move right past, but did you respond to questions about the New York Times story that quoted unnamed officials citing concerns that the U.S.-Saudi-Qatari weapons to Syrian rebels triangle is inefficient, and it's resulting in weapons going more to Islamist factions than secular factions?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I did, Guy."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: You did. All right, I'm sorry. Thank you."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yep. Anything else? All right. Thank you all."/>

			<outline text="You know if Jim Lehrer would have pulled out a gun and shot Mitt Romney, the liberals would have just gushed about Lehrer the way they did about little state Martha Raditz or whatever that shrews name is, as Obama voters just loved Joe Biden's attempted homosexual rape of Paul Ryan."/>

			<outline text="See that is what you children missed in this. This was not Wall Street Journal drunken Joe at the end of the  bar bullying people or Andy Bean going on about Biden being brain exploded. What Joe Biden was reinacting was the old fag butt raper always after a new piece of ass."/>

			<outline text="'I'm not a fly on the wall'..."/>

			<outline text="The real issue in this is, is this blog advocates a change in debates. Women who are ugly on the inside should not be allowed to moderate, as like in Martha Raditz's case everyone knew she was not going to get her cobweb covered snatch violated by Joe Biden but the reason Paul Ryan was drinking so much water was he was trying to deal with olde Joe rubbing on his leg under the table.This Candy Crowley for example. As a shemale she is perfectly safe from Barack Obama as he has that at home. Mitt Romney of course might end up being torn in two by Candy and Barack as they fight over him."/>

			<outline text="Originally I had hoped this was Monica Crowley that blonde thing conservative's sister, but Candy is........well of a different branch of the missing link than Monica, even if Candy dyed her hair blonde."/>

			<outline text="I know that for debates America should just put this all on the venue of women who are attractive. I have nothing against geezers like Jim Lehrer as he is quite pretty, but should not we have on stage a woman who everyone would say, lesbian, sodomite, normal and bestial that they would tap that if she would assume the position?"/>

			<outline text="I mean Candy Crowley would be fine at a Catholic boys school threatening those little perverts to fright they would never get an erection again. She would work at a girls college making certain the whores turned back into virgins, but at debates one needs some enticement as one's mind wanders to keep the audiences attentions."/>

			<outline text="Why is not Keiran Chetry asked to moderate or some other snatch showing talking head? Debates would rival football games then as everyone would be waiting to see when she shifted her legs and we could see who the real man was in the debate as they shifted their johnsons after getting a view of beaver country."/>

			<outline text="Perhaps if Candy Cutie was her name and not a sinister croaking bird, Candy might have turned out looking like someone showing their legs off on FOX news, but right now she is just scarier than Joe Biden and name change will not help."/>

			<outline text="So it would be a good thing to only have hot looking women as moderators as no one would care what they would say like Candy, but at least people would enjoy watching."/>

			<outline text="To help viewers this blog advocates printing up some photo of a Lame Cherry model and holding it over Monica to help their attention spans, and so they do not ghetto green vomit upchuck."/>

			<outline text="People should not be subjected to things like this and as voters have their votes flipped by Scytl, should not we have our moderators flipped for a more numbing effect on the psyche. Everyone can not be gay. There have to be a few breeders who are into sex for normal reasons and not to be gay parades."/>

			<outline text="No viewer should have to be distracted in wondering about too many X and Y genes and have nightmares wondering what got up her privates. Debates should not be fag in Obama being fag or Biden being dirty old fag, with geezer Lehrer shocked by the fag and Martha wondering why all the men in her life turned fag."/>

			<outline text="I say from now on that we only have moderators who gay people would turn straight for. It would make everyone happy and Candy Crowley could.........well be employed as the Russian communist bikini woman spokesmodel. Russians like this look in a woman. I do not know why but Candy would be a treat in Russia. We all win and will feel better about American election theft."/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="Two and a half weeks  ago I wrote a column for Fox News Opinion calling on Hillary Clinton to quit as Secretary of State. As more information comes out about what really led to ambassador Chris Stevens's death on September 11, we're hearing growing murmurs demanding the same thing.  It's not a full-throated chorus yet.  But yesterday's hearings in front of the House Government Oversight Committee are encouraging others to join in.  "/>

			<outline text="They certainly confirm three damning facts about our Secretary of State."/>

			<outline text="First, she and her Washington minions ignored repeated direct calls for help with security in Benghazi, including from the ambassador himself, and warnings about a possible attack on the anniversary of 9/11. According to the State Department's security chief Andrew Wood, getting ''security in Benghazi was a struggle'' without end.  "/>

			<outline text="Twice the man in charge of security for our diplomats in Libya, Greg Nordstrom, begged the State Department for more security in  Benghazi after no less than 48 security ''incidents'' there, including two bombings.   "/>

			<outline text="Washington, however, said no. Hillary Clinton wanted to preserve the illusion that all was fine in Libya, especially on the eve of the November election. She had her minion Charlene Lamb, deputy assistant secretary for international programs, tell Nordstrom that State wanted ''to normalize operations'' in Libya and to ''reduce security resources.''"/>

			<outline text="In the end Ambassador Stevens had to trust his life to hired local security''who, we now know, led the killers to Stevens's hiding place where they could torture, and murder him."/>

			<outline text="Second, by blaming the Stevens murder on a video instead of Al Qaeda terrorists, she and the president deliberately deceived the American people and the world. "/>

			<outline text="Hillary  paraded this falsehood in two very public speeches on September 12th after the attack, and again on the 14th''even though the word was out within 24 hours that the killings in Libya were the result of a terrorist attack. "/>

			<outline text="Her own State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research dubbed the murders acts of terror from the start, and never considered the online video a factor.  ''That was never our conclusion,'' officials now say.  "/>

			<outline text="It was not until September 21st''more than a week after the truth was known''that Hillary abruptly changed her story to ''what happened in Benghazi was a terrorist attack.''  By then the video story was so transparently false that when she trotted it out one last time at a Congressional briefing on September 20, the reaction was one of disbelief and disgust. ''They're trying to cover their behinds,'' Congressman Ted Flores of Texas seethed, and he was right."/>

			<outline text="Third and finally''and most tellingly--the professionals at State are starting to abandon the Hillary ship. Wood and Nordstrom have provided a version of events that explicitly contradicts the Hillary version of what happened. That wouldn't happen unless they and others weren't fed up with taking the fall for their boss, and being associated with a dangerous and epic lie.     "/>

			<outline text="So don't expect the administration's latest story that the video story was the result of an ''intelligence failure,'' to help save Hillary.  That'll only arouse more ire inside the CIA and other intelligence agencies, along with State.  "/>

			<outline text="The only possible conclusion is that, in order to preserve the fiction that the Obama policy in Libya was working, Hillary Clinton was willing to put the life of our ambassador at mortal risk, and afterwards deliberately misdirected our attention away from a genuine lethal threat to our security, Al Qaeda, toward a fake one, an online video.   "/>

			<outline text="After this sustained deception no other Secretary of State in our history could keep his or her job.  "/>

			<outline text="This one shouldn't, either."/>

			<outline text="Link to Article" type="link" url="http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/us-ambassador-susan-rice/2012/10/15/c5a9fe04-16d9-11e2-8792-cf5305eddf60_print.html"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="By Anne Gearan and Colum Lynch,A month after the assault on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, a fateful series of television appearances by Susan E. Rice, the American ambassador to the United Nations, is haunting the Obama administration in the face of allegations that it deliberately attempted to play down suspicions of terrorist involvement."/>

			<outline text="Rice made the rounds of the Sunday morning talk shows on Sept. 16, five days after the attack in the Libyan city, and in each one she said the fatal assault appeared to have stemmed from a spontaneous protest over an anti-Islam video."/>

			<outline text="The appearances were part of a gradual increase in the public profile of an administration insider, one eyed as a potential successor to Hillary Rodham Clinton as secretary of state. Today, Rice's profile has been raised, but hardly in the way that she or her White House supporters would have liked."/>

			<outline text="The administration's characterization only days after Rice's TV appearances that the assault in Libya was a terrorist attack has raised questions about why she attributed the incident to a protest that officials now say did not take place. Republicans have pressed for answers on whether she simply went too far in her assessment or was reading from an administration script that was designed to protect President Obama's record on national security in an election year."/>

			<outline text="In an interview Monday with The Washington Post, Rice said she relied on daily updates from intelligence agencies in the days before her television appearances and on a set of talking points prepared for senior members of the administration by intelligence officials. She said there was no attempt to pick and choose among possible explanations for the attack."/>

			<outline text="''Absolutely not,'' Rice said. ''It was purely a function of what was provided to us'' and had been given to Congress the day before."/>

			<outline text="Administration officials have risen to her defense. On Monday, Clinton said she wanted to ''avoid some kind of political gotcha.''"/>

			<outline text="''I take responsibility'' for what happened on Sept. 11, Clinton told CNN in an interview shortly after arriving in Lima, the capital of Peru, for a visit."/>

			<outline text="Republicans have dismissed suggestions that they are playing politics. And Rice's explanation of her remarks, which echoes that of other administration officials, including Vice President Biden, has not blunted the criticism."/>

			<outline text="''The facts are there was never a riot,'' Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) said Sunday on ''Face the Nation.''"/>

			<outline text="''My belief is that that was known by the administration within 24 hours and, quite frankly, Susan Rice, on your show on September 16th, the president on the 18th and the 25th, kept talking about an attack inspired by a video.''"/>

			<outline text="Furor over comments"/>

			<outline text="The White House has said that it turned to Rice to make the administration's case on the Benghazi attack because it made sense to have a top diplomat speak to the loss of the U.S. ambassador to Libya, J. Christopher Stevens."/>

			<outline text="Rice has previously said little about the controversy generated by her TV appearances. Aides have said that her comments have been taken out of context and that she stressed at the time that the FBI was still investigating the attack."/>

			<outline text="''Ambassador Rice's comments were prefaced at every turn with a clear statement that an investigation was underway that would provide the definitive accounting of the events that took place in Benghazi,'' said Erin Pelton, spokeswoman for the U.S. Mission to the United Nations."/>

			<outline text="The White House has supported that explanation but has not specified the intelligence that underlined Rice's statements. Instead, officials have deemed as preposterous allegations that Rice or anyone else cherry-picked intelligence and have argued that it would make no sense for the administration to knowingly put out a false narrative that could so easily be disproved."/>

			<outline text="In the interview, Rice said intelligence agencies were doing their best to understand what had happened in complicated circumstances and should not be blamed. ''What you get Day 1, Day 2, Day 14 isn't the whole story,'' she said."/>

			<outline text="Intelligence agencies collected ''multiple threads'' of information that day and night, and the assessment of those threads changed over time, Undersecretary of State Patrick F. Kennedy said last week before a congressional committee."/>

			<outline text="''If any administration official, including any career official, were on television on Sunday, Sept. 16th, they would have said what Ambassador Rice said,'' Kennedy said."/>

			<outline text="In addition to her comments on CBS, Rice told NBC's ''Meet the Press'': ''Our current assessment is what happened in Benghazi was, in fact, initially a spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired hours before in Cairo, almost a copycat of the demonstrations against our facility in Cairo, prompted by the video.''"/>

			<outline text="During an interview on Fox News Channel the same day, she attributed the Benghazi attack to a protest gone wrong."/>

			<outline text="Uncertain political fate"/>

			<outline text="Republican criticism of Rice's handling of the crisis comes at a time when the administration appeared to be grooming her for a more visible diplomatic position."/>

			<outline text="In recent months, she has represented the United States at a state funeral for a close U.S. ally, Meles Zenawi of Ethiopia, and mixed family sightseeing at the Taj Mahal with high-level talks with India's top foreign policy officials."/>

			<outline text="''The president has enormous confidence in Ambassador Rice and is extremely grateful for all the important work she does at the U.N. every day,'' said National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor."/>

			<outline text="The spokesman said he would not ''speculate on future personnel decisions.''"/>

			<outline text="Micah Zenko of the Center for Preventive Action at the Council on Foreign Relations said Rice's political fate largely rests on whether investigations by a State Department panel and by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee ''find compelling evidence she had intelligence that didn't match'' the account she presented to the public."/>

			<outline text="''I think it would be very difficult for the administration to put her forward [for secretary of state] if she willfully mischaracterized the intelligence,'' Zenko said."/>

			<outline text="He said he would ''find it hard to believe'' that Republicans could muster sufficient opposition to block her nomination if the evidence indicates that her account matched the intelligence assessments."/>

			<outline text="Lynch reported from the United Nations."/>

			<outline text="Tue, 16 Oct 2012 17:28"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="Libya has become the Obama administration's Iraq.Enthusiasm for intervention without clarity of strategy after intervention is common to both the Bush and Obama administrations. What is different is that George W. Bush took ownership of the Iraq crisis; Barack Obama has not."/>

			<outline text="In the Libyan case, the dynamics are occurring in the background of an explosive Middle East. No matter how stovepiped our policy processes, there is significant interaction among the various locations of change in the Middle East."/>

			<outline text="The difficulty with politicians and the media is that they have one issue fixation. The Western and Eastern Mediterranean are seeing significant upheaval, but each event is looked at only in and of itself."/>

			<outline text="It is striking how isolated the coverage and the policies have been towards each element re-shaping the Middle Eastern puzzle."/>

			<outline text="The Libyan case has several key elements which put the credibility of the United States and Europe on the line."/>

			<outline text="First, the Libyan intervention was a &quot;lead from behind&quot; exercise for the Obama administration. For Europe it was a military intervention with EU humanitarian aid in the rear drill. After &quot;leading from behind&quot; and toppling the Libyan dictator, the administration failed to put together a transition strategy. And Europe has largely gone missing in action from shaping a credible support effort to ensure transition. The EU may have won the Nobel Peace Prize but now needs to earn it in Libya."/>

			<outline text="Second, a transition strategy is tough and nasty. It means recognizing that Libya is neither stable nor settled. It is a territory where terrorists will operate, and factions will struggle with one another for dominance."/>

			<outline text="These difficulties are covered over by providing support for &quot;rebels.&quot; When politicians starting supporting &quot;rebels&quot; I get concerned. I am old enough to remember such great democratic &quot;rebels&quot; as Fidel Castro. That turned well, didn't it?"/>

			<outline text="Third, the misplaced notions of the dominance of soft power need to go. If we are to have a transition in Libya we need security to allow for stability and growth. Security requires outside military and security forces protecting Western interests and shaping stability in the country."/>

			<outline text="And, yes, Western interests need to be on the table. Insertion of force, toppling regimes without a discussion of interest almost always guarantees outcomes, which are not. Look at the victory lap on Iraq withdrawal, which avoids rather nasty realities such as whose oil companies and arms suppliers are now the friends of Iraq. It's hard to find Americans very high on that list. And of course the Iraq government is supporting Assad against those &quot;rebels.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Fourth, the catastrophic failure to secure shoulder-fired surface to-air missiles (called MANPADS by the military) present in Libya is creating a potential new global reality. By not putting troops on the ground in Libya to find, destroy or move those missiles, the West may have met UN requirements and fed political instincts at home, but it made no strategic sense whatsoever."/>

			<outline text="Those loose MANPADS can not only kill Western forces, but can have significant global economic impact as well if they were used to shoot down a civilian airliner or destroy it on the runway."/>

			<outline text="&quot;Of course, the MANPADS threat '' accelerated by Libyan developments '' poses the stark possibility of repeating what we saw after 9/11. A sharp downturn in the commercial airplane business, and 10-year growth plans was thrown into the wastebasket after the terrorist crashed into the World Trade Center,&quot; a senior European industrialist pointed out on my last trip to Europe. &quot;A MANPADS incident could be the functional equivalent; and could shut down the commercial airplane business. It would recover, but the demand to deal with this threat would then have to be dealt with, rather than ignored.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Running from the problem is no solution. Inventing protests that did not happen, or not being informed by the State Department of this or that does not shape a strategy. As my colleague Ed Timperlake wrote last year, Hope is Not a Strategy."/>

			<outline text="So we need a strategy, and not some statement of hope about the Arab Spring, Summer or whatever it is."/>

			<outline text="The way ahead is difficult and challenging. And the way ahead can only be a transition to a true national Libyan government, which may not be democratic and may not be our best friend. It is not necessarily a step in the proliferating Arab Spring, but perhaps a step AWAY from an Arab Winter."/>

			<outline text="The first element is to get realistic about what can be done. Destroying the old is relatively easy; building something new is not."/>

			<outline text="The second element is to recognize that hard and soft power are not alternate ends of the spectrum but must be blended together into an effective strategy. We need to help rebuild infrastructure and a functioning economy, but this requires an external border security system and continued Western presence in Libya."/>

			<outline text="Presence requires the ability to defend Western citizens. Acts of violence such as what has happened to the US ambassador and the other embassy workers require a greater response than simply waiting for a Libyan legal system to sort itself out. We need to be like Israel in this situation: whichever group of villains did this need to be punished, even if they are not currently in Libya. Respect in the international arena is not given; it is earned."/>

			<outline text="Europe and the US do not have the resources to spend or simply will not spend them to rebuild Libya. But aid is needed now and civilian experts are needed now to rebuild the country. A Libyan aid agency can be formed whereby aid is repaid from future oil earnings. The money could be paid back to the EU and the US and whomever else through these future oil earnings."/>

			<outline text="Perimeter security needs to be set up by the US and Europe with core Arab ally support. The system can be paid for by the Libyan Aid Agency funds. If you do not have security you can not have development, especially given the fragility of Libya's oil infrastructure and transportation systems."/>

			<outline text="Finally, here's a message to both political camps in the United States. Assuming that joyous citizens await you when you whack a dictator is not realistic. Crafting a policy on such nonsense on stilts, to quote John Stuart Mill, guarantees that we will always have a realistic strategy gap. Syria comes to mind as the next instance of a place where we need to get realistic."/>

			<outline text="According to Der Spiegel, Iran is secretly planning to spill oil into the Strait of Hormuz as revenge for Western sanctions.The magazine claims to have spoken to Western intelligence sources who say they have obtained Iran's classified report on the operation."/>

			<outline text="Code-named &quot;Murky Water,&quot; the plan allegedly involves steering an Iranian supertanker, capable of carrying hundreds of thousands of barrels of oil, onto a rock."/>

			<outline text="According to Der Spiegel:"/>

			<outline text="The goal of the plan seems to be that of contaminating the strait so as to temporarily close the important shipping route for international oil tankers, thereby 'punishing' the Arab countries that are hostile to Iran and forcing the West to join Iran in a large-scale clean-up operation '-- one that might require the temporary suspension of sanctions against Tehran."/>

			<outline text="The proposal was drawn up by the heads of the Revolutionary Guards and the Iranian Navy, according to the magazine, but it is up to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei whether to implement it.Not sure what to make of this. Truth or Western propaganda? You get to decide. I note it appears just as the EU is considering stronger sanctions against Iran."/>

			<outline text="Dick Cheney discussing his memoir, October 2011."/>

			<outline text="Photo by Brendan Hoffman/Getty Images"/>

			<outline text="The president was warned of an impending threat of terrorism. He failed to act. The attack came, Americans died, and now the administration is covering up the truth."/>

			<outline text="That's what Republicans are arguing in 2012. Which is pretty funny, if you don't count the dead Americans, because it's the opposite of what the GOP said 10 years ago. Back then, the conspiracy theories and the 20/20 hindsight were about the original 9/11 attacks. And the Republican Party line was that anyone who accused the president of neglect or deceit was unpatriotic."/>

			<outline text="Yesterday the Republican National Committee posted a 4,500-word indictment of Obama's role, or lack thereof, in the recent assault on the Libyan consulate. ''Less than two months before the Benghazi attack,'' said the RNC, ''the State Department determined that 'the risk of U.S. mission personnel, private U.S. citizens and businesspersons encountering an isolating event as a result of militia or political violence Is HIGH.' '' Meanwhile, ''U.S. security officials repeatedly warned the State Department that more U.S. security personnel were needed in Libya.'' Instead, security was cut back."/>

			<outline text="The RNC mocked Joe Biden for asserting in last week's vice-presidential debate, ''We weren't told they wanted more security.'' It said Biden's remarks ''raised questions about what had been included in the president's briefing on the U.S. security posture the day before the 9/11 anniversary.'' And it skewered White House press secretary Jay Carney for telling reporters ''there was no actionable intelligence that suggested there would be an attack at the Benghazi facility.'' The larger question, the RNC maintained, was whether Obama, in his security briefing, had been told of previous plots and security concerns more broadly."/>

			<outline text="Dick Cheney, the former vice president, has been pressing this issue against Obama. On Oct. 2, Cheney said, ''The latest thing I've heard now is that '... they had denied the additional security resources that had been requested by the Benghazi consulate '... it looks like the administration's been involved in a cover-up.'' Cheney's daughter, Liz, elaborated on the evidence: ''There was a DOD assessment, there was a CIA assessment. You had the chairman of the Joint Chiefs today say there's been this thread of intelligence that, in fact, al-Qaida is resurgent in Libya, resurgent particularly in Benghazi. There may well have been information out there that the president should have been aware of, that the State Department should have been aware of.''"/>

			<outline text="Donald Rumsfeld, the former defense secretary, makes the same point. ''It's clear that they misjudged the security situation,'' he told Fox News on Oct. 1. A day later, Rumsfeld paraphrased reports that U.S. officials had failed ''to respond promptly to a threat report and to concerns that were being expressed by the people in Libya.'' Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor, was more emphatic. ''This is a cover-up,'' he charged. ''And it's the worst kind of cover-up, a cover-up that involves our national security, a cover-up that involves the slaughter of four Americans.'' On Oct. 9, Giuliani concluded: ''We should never have been attacked in Libya. The warnings were manifold. Instead of increasing security, we decreased security. It is quite possible that the ambassador and the other three Americans didn't have to die if there [had been] a competent reaction.''"/>

			<outline text="Maybe so. Maybe, if Obama and his underlings had heeded the danger signs, those four Americans would be alive today. But it's pretty rich to hear this complaint about ''the events of September 11, 2012'' from the people who presided over the original events of Sept. 11. You know, the ones in which nearly 3,000 Americans died."/>

			<outline text="The 9/11 commission report, issued in July 2004, documented numerous warning signs of that attack, all of which went unheeded. One was a July 2001 memo from the Phoenix FBI office to FBI headquarters, flagging the &quot;possibility of a coordinated effort by Usama Bin Ladin&quot; to train terrorists as pilots in U.S. flight schools. Another was the August 2001 arrest of one of the 9/11 plotters, Zacarias Moussaoui, for suspicious conduct at a flight school, which ''was briefed to '... top CIA officials.'' But the most embarrassing document was the Aug. 6, 2001, Presidential Daily Brief, which carried the title, &quot;Bin Ladin Determined to Strike in US.''"/>

			<outline text="When the Aug. 6 document came to light in May 2002, Cheney brushed it off. ''It didn't give us any actionable intelligence,'' he insisted in a Fox News interview. ''It didn't really give us anything new or anything precise or specific.'' As to the rest of the warning signs, Cheney argued,"/>

			<outline text="There wasn't anything out there that would have allowed us to predict what was going to happen. We found out since Sept. 11 that the FBI had Moussaoui in custody in Minnesota. We didn't know that before the 11th. That didn't trickle up to the presidential level. We've since heard about the so-called Phoenix memo that dates back to sometime in July, but again that didn't come up. '... In terms of getting down into the nitty gritty, into the weeds of this kind of intelligence reporting, you know, we're not in the habit of reading the raw intelligence reports from the FBI. There are 56 bureaus around the country, and that stuff'--there aren't enough hours in the day for us to do all of that, so you need a system that deals with it."/>

			<outline text="October 15, 2012Washington, D.C.&amp;#173;'' U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ), Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) today released the following statement on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's comments this evening regarding the terrorist attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi on September 11, 2012:"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="''We have just learned that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has claimed full responsibility for any failure to secure our people and our Consulate in Benghazi prior to the attack of September 11, 2012. This is a laudable gesture, especially when the White House is trying to avoid any responsibility whatsoever."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="''However, we must remember that the events of September 11 were preceded by an escalating pattern of attacks this year in Benghazi, including a bomb that was thrown into our Consulate in April, another explosive device that was detonated outside of our Consulate in June, and an assassination attempt on the British Ambassador. If the President was truly not aware of this rising threat level in Benghazi, then we have lost confidence in his national security team, whose responsibility it is to keep the President informed. But if the President was aware of these earlier attacks in Benghazi prior to the events of September 11, 2012, then he bears full responsibility for any security failures that occurred. The security of Americans serving our nation everywhere in the world is ultimately the job of the Commander-in-Chief. The buck stops there."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="''Furthermore, there is the separate issue of the insistence by members of the Administration, including the President himself, that the attack in Benghazi was the result of a spontaneous demonstration triggered by a hateful video, long after it had become clear that the real cause was a terrorist attack. The President also bears responsibility for this portrayal of the attack, and we continue to believe that the American people deserve to know why the Administration acted as it did.''"/>

			<outline text="The businessman at the centre of the cancelled Broadway production of Rebecca: The Musical was charged with fraud on Monday, after being arrested at his home in New York."/>

			<outline text="Mark Hotton, a 46-year-old stockbroker, is accused of inventing fictional investors to con the musical's producers, for whom he promised to secure $4.5m. Investigators claim that he received $60,000 in commission and fees, including $18,210.88 for an African safari with one of the funders and his eldest son."/>

			<outline text="In a statement, Manhattan US attorney Preet Bharara described the scheme as &quot;stranger than fiction&quot;."/>

			<outline text="He continued: &quot;Hotton concocted a cast of characters to invest in a major musical '' investors who turned out to be deep-pocketed phantoms. To carry out the alleged fraud, Hotton faked lives, faked companies and even staged a fake death, pretending that one imaginary investor had suddenly died from malaria.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="It is alleged that after &quot;killing off&quot; fake investor Paul Abrams in August, Hotton implemented a second scheme that involved helping to secure a $1.1m loan. The production folded on the day rehearsals were due to begin, leaving lead producers Ben Sprecher and Louise Forlenza financially liable if it does not eventually take place."/>

			<outline text="Sprecher's lawyer Ronald G Russo said: &quot;This fraud did enormous damage to Broadway and Ben Sprecher remains totally committed to bringing Rebecca to New York.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Hotton was arrested at his Long Island home and charged with two counts of wire-fraud, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years' imprisonment. His legal representatives pleaded not guilty on his behalf, and magistrate Arlene R Lindsay ordered that Hotton be held without bail."/>

			<outline text="&quot;In his alleged scheme to defraud investors, Mark Hotton wrote, directed and starred in the work of fiction he took to Broadway,&quot; said FBI acting assistant director Mary E Galligan in a statement. &quot;A convincing portrayal on stage can earn you a Tony. A convincing act that fleeces a production's backers can earn you a prison term.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Lima, Peru (CNN) -- Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Monday tried to douse a political firestorm over the deadly assault on a U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya, saying she's responsible for the security of American diplomatic outposts."/>

			<outline text="&quot;I take responsibility,&quot; Clinton told CNN in an interview while on a visit to Peru. &quot;I'm in charge of the State Department's 60,000-plus people all over the world, 275 posts. The president and the vice president wouldn't be knowledgeable about specific decisions that are made by security professionals. They're the ones who weigh all of the threats and the risks and the needs and make a considered decision.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="But she said an investigation now under way will ultimately determine what happened at the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, where Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed on September 11."/>

			<outline text="&quot;I take this very personally,&quot; Clinton said. &quot;So we're going to get to the bottom of it, and then we're going to do everything we can to work to prevent it from happening again, and then we're going to work to bring whoever did this to us to justice.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="The attack took place in the eastern Libyan city that was the cradle of that country's 2011 revolution. Obama administration officials initially blamed a mob inflamed by a U.S.-produced movie that mocked Islam and its Prophet Mohammed, but later said the storming of the consulate appears to have been a terrorist attack."/>

			<outline text="With criticism growing, Vice President Joe Biden said during last week's vice presidential debate that the White House did not know of requests to enhance security at Benghazi, contradicting testimony by State Department employees that requests had been made and rejected. After the debate, the White House said the vice president did not know of the requests because they were handled, as is the practice, by the State Department."/>

			<outline text="Fact Check: Benghazi security"/>

			<outline text="&quot;In the wake of an attack like this, in the fog of war, there's always going to be confusion,&quot; Clinton said. &quot;And I think it is absolutely fair to say that everyone had the same intelligence. Everyone who spoke tried to give the information that they had. As time has gone on, that information has changed. We've gotten more detail, but that's not surprising. That always happens.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="She added, &quot;What I want to avoid is some kind of political gotcha or blame game.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;I know that we're very close to an election,&quot; Clinton said. &quot;I want to just take a step back here and say from my own experience, we are at our best as Americans when we pull together. I've done that with Democratic presidents and Republican presidents.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Her remarks drew a quick response from three Republicans on the Senate Armed Services Committee, including ranking member John McCain."/>

			<outline text="Clinton's statement of responsibility was &quot;a laudable gesture, especially when the White House is trying to avoid any responsibility whatsoever,&quot; the Arizona senator said in a joint broadside with Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire. However, they added, &quot;The security of Americans serving our nation everywhere in the world is ultimately the job of the commander-in-chief. The buck stops there.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Stevens, State Department computer expert Sean Smith and security contractors Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods died in the Benghazi assault, which State Department officials now say was the work of dozens of armed men."/>

			<outline text="Clinton also described a desperate scene in the State Department during the hours of the attack, as staff tried to find out what had happened."/>

			<outline text="&quot;This was a many-hour ordeal that we were all involved in, and I was deeply concerned as you would obviously assume, to hear about an attack,&quot; she said. Not only was the picture coming out of Libya murky, but also, &quot;Then we couldn't find Ambassador Stevens, and we were trying desperately to figure out what happened to him and to Sean Smith and to the others who were there.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Actress sues filmmaker"/>

			<outline text="Clinton said her mission now is to make sure such an attack will never happen again, and also to ensure the work of American diplomats won't be stopped even in dangerous areas like Benghazi."/>

			<outline text="&quot;We can't retreat. We have to continue to lead. We have to be engaged,&quot; she said. &quot;We can't hang out behind walls.&quot; She said Stevens, who came to Benghazi on a cargo ship to start building ties with rebel leaders during last year's revolt, &quot;knew that more than anybody.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Thousands of protesters march in the country's largest anti-Walmart rally in Chinatown on June 30, 2012 in Los AngelesPhotograph by Joe Klamar/AFP/GettyImages."/>

			<outline text="Walmart, the world's largest private employer, is facing what looks to be a growing wave of strikes. What's most interesting here is that Walmart is'--quite famously'--not a unionized company. The current state of American labor law makes unionizing worksites at a company like Walmart extraordinarily difficult, and the political outlook for major revision to the relevant laws is extremely poor. So the question of whether it's possible for workers to effectively organize themselves and engage in industrial action outside the context of the formal legal framework that governs collective bargaining in the United States is a very important one. Legislative change has often been seen as the key to a revival of labor activism in the United States, but obviously unions didn't become influential in the first place because of a friendly political climate'--like any new social movement they became powerful despite the hostile political climate and then thanks to their growing power were temporarily able to create a friendly climate."/>

			<outline text="Walmart's in a fairly low-margin industry but with net income before tax of a bit over $10,000 per employee there really is substantial economic surplus that workers could, in theory, capture."/>

			<outline text="Bryce Covert in The Nation emphasizes that this is important because there's been so much employment growth in the low-wage retail sector. I think I'd read the causality the other way around'--one reason there's been so much employment growth at places like Walmart is because they've found a way to hire adequate workers for very low wages. If they end up needing to pay more, the business model will shift. I shop regularly at two different supermarkets, one unionized and one nonunion. I don't think it's a coincidence that the nonunion supermarket has more employees and the unionized one has more frequently-malfunctioning self-checkout machines. To the extent that wages in the retail sector start to rise across the board, you'll see more emphasis on perfecting and installing that kind of technology. Amazon is investing in warehouse robots for a reason and there are some broader economic trends away from big box retail and toward Internet-based commerce that might let you get buy with fewer, higher-paid workers."/>

			<outline text="Which I think would be progress. I was struck the last time I was in France by the fact that the McDonalds' outlets in crowded parts of Paris (I wanted a soda with lots of ice in it, sue me) seem more technologically sophisticated than their US peers. Our fast food sector lags in this regard presumably because it's easier here to substitute cheap labor for advanced technology."/>

			<outline text="Today there is a new tab on the Scripting News home page. Screen shot."/>

			<outline text="I've felt for a long time that every serious news organization and blog should have a river associated with their publication. The river would include the news sources that the publication &quot;reads&quot; -- to give their readers a sense of the community they both belong to and the community they define."/>

			<outline text="For example, a blog about a town would include a river of all the bloggers who are active in that town. This is a vital resource for the editorial people who write for the pub, but it also gives access to everyone. The readers get to read all the news sources, and the news sources get to read each other. Very quickly, probably instantaneously, all these different boxes, sources, readers, reporters merge into one, because truthfully it's more like that every day. The imaginary line that separates a columnist from a voter from a mayor is more or less non-existent, in a day when mayors have blogs, and citizens become mayors."/>

			<outline text="This is the world envisioned by at least some of the founders of the United States. That the people would form the government, and that the press would cover everything, without regard to status. The tendency of cliques and ladders to form would be counteracted by new entrants in all the fields, and lower barriers to entry. This is what democratization of media looks like. It's why I put my collection of rivers on a site called Media Hackers. Because that's what all this is doing, hacking media, and turning it into something new, given the new realities of the technology we now use to publish and to read."/>

			<outline text="Rivers are revolutionary because they are flat. The ideal level playing field. I read NakedJen and Doc Searls along with the New York Times and whitehouse.gov. And Jon Chait, David Frum, Felix Salmon and Matt Taibbi. I love them all because they send me fresh ideas that get me thinking. And I love that I can share all that with you, the lovely people who read my humble blog."/>

			<outline text="The river on Scripting News home page is a collection of feeds that I read to be inspired and to keep informed. They reflect my interests, which is appropriate because it is my blog. It helps you know who influences me, and I'm always open to adding more feeds to my river."/>

			<outline text="My feeling is that if you read my blog you should also read my river."/>

			<outline text="I think the more innovative sites should get on board right away. I have pitched FastCompany and Wired on doing this. Technology Review at MIT has written glowingly of the idea of rivers of news, how about putting one together for your community? BerkeleySide, why not put a river of Berkeley bloggers on your site?"/>

			<outline text="I am available to help any serious publication get started. We have the software, and the interest. And the community of users gathered around my site, ever-more-active, are zealots when it comes to spreading the gospel! :-)"/>

			<outline text="PS: Thanks to Dody Gunawinata, a developer in Cairo, for helping get the flash out of my rivers. I'm still very much a Javascript newbie, and need help getting stuff like this to work smoothly."/>

			<outline text="(Credit: John Mabry/Teague )Design firm Teague knows a thing or two about making things. After all, the company's design portfolio includes (among many other creations) the Polaroid camera, the Xbox, and even the UPS truck."/>

			<outline text="John Mabry, a senior industrial designer at Teague, believes we're entering an age where we can print out working consumer electronics instead of buying them from major corporations. Built around the concept that we live a &quot;life in beta,&quot; Mabry freely offers plans for a working pair of headphones that anyone can print with a MakerBot Replicator 3D printer."/>

			<outline text="&quot;This project started as a thought piece around printed consumer electronics and the idea that they could be as easy to turn into working product as they are to print,&quot; Mabry says in a description about the headphones. &quot;Meaning that once off the print bed, such an object could be assembled without any tools, and be made functional by readily attainable components.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Aside from the obvious requisites of a 3D printer and material to print with, creating the 13:30 headphones only requires less than a $20 worth of components (speakers, cables, etc.) to assemble."/>

			<outline text="The unusual name 13:30 derives from how many hours and minutes it took Mabry to print out the first pair with a Dimension 1200ES 3D printer. To further complement the aforementioned beta concept, Teague posted the design on Thingiverse and hosts the 13:30 headphone CAD files, meaning that anyone can take this design and make it their own."/>

			<outline text="The attorney general, Dominic Grieve QC, told parliament it would make sense for all 96 Hillsborough inquest verdicts to be quashed. Photograph: PA"/>

			<outline text="The attorney general has confirmed that he will apply to the courts to quash the original verdicts of &quot;accidental death&quot; from the inquest into the deaths of 96 Liverpool fans in the Hillsborough disaster."/>

			<outline text="Dominic Grieve QC told parliament he would apply to the high court to have the original verdicts overturned in the wake of new evidence revealed by the Hillsborough independent panel's (HIP) report published last month."/>

			<outline text="&quot;My consideration of the evidence is far from complete but, given the anxiety further delay may cause the families affected by the Hillsborough disaster, I have decided to take an exceptional course and state at this stage that, on the basis of what I have already seen, I have determined that I must make an application to the court,&quot; he said on Tuesday."/>

			<outline text="Because the deaths arose from a &quot;common chain of events&quot;, he said, it would make sense to apply for all 96 verdicts to be quashed but he would take representations from the victims' families on the matter."/>

			<outline text="&quot;Having announced my decision, I will need further time to prepare the application so the strongest case can be made to the court. I need to complete my consideration of the evidence and consider any representations. I will move as quickly as I can.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Trevor Hicks, chair of the Hillsborough Family Support Group, welcomed the move and said the families would meet the attorney general soon to discuss the next steps."/>

			<outline text="&quot;We are very pleased with the pace things are going at,&quot; said Hicks, who lost two daughters in the disaster on 15 April 1989."/>

			<outline text="&quot;We have waited 23 years. Due process will have to take place. We are pleased he has pointed out it will be 96 fresh inquests. We didn't want any differentiation between those who might have been saved and those who would not.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Ninety-six people died and more than 760 were injured in a human crush during the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest at Hillsborough in Sheffield."/>

			<outline text="The HIP report, which ran to 395 pages and was based on consideration of 450,000 pages of evidence, confirmed the disaster was caused by an unsafe stadium, chaotic emergency response and police failings, and laid bare the extent of the coverup that followed as police attempted to blame the fans."/>

			<outline text="It also revealed that up to 41 of the 96 victims had the &quot;potential to survive&quot; beyond the 3.15pm cut-off time imposed by the original coroner, prompting new questions over how many could have been saved had the emergency response been better."/>

			<outline text="Some families of the victims have said that having the original inquest verdict quashed is their No 1 priority."/>

			<outline text="&quot;The inquests and any potential prosecutions are important not only for the families of the victims but the whole of society. The agencies of the state let us down and that has to be put right,&quot; Hicks said."/>

			<outline text="Grieve said it was not for him to direct where any new inquest should be held but the families will demand that it takes place in Liverpool rather than Sheffield."/>

			<outline text="If a new coroner is appointed, he or she is expected to liaise with the families over whether the inquest should proceed before any criminal or disciplinary charges that may arise."/>

			<outline text="On Friday, the Independent Police Complaints Commission announced it would launch the largest ever review of police conduct in light of the evidence revealed by the panel."/>

			<outline text="Simultaneously, the director of public prosecutions, Keir Starmer, said he would undertake a review of all the evidence to see if new charges of manslaughter could be brought against corporations or individuals."/>

			<outline text="Grieve said the DPP's parallel considerations would not impact on the timing of his application to quash the 96 existing verdicts, but any new criminal proceedings &quot;could undoubtedly impact on when an inquest could take place&quot;."/>

			<outline text="Hicks said that at a meeting between Starmer and the families earlier this week they had been given a reassurance that any new inquest would not be delayed by criminal proceedings."/>

			<outline text="Representatives of the Hillsborough Family Support Group and the Hillsborough Justice Campaign will give evidence to the home affairs select committee on Tuesday afternoon, as will the South Yorkshire police chief constable, David Crompton."/>

			<outline text="Tue, 16 Oct 2012 13:08"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="A sense of vindication has most likely spread throughout the headquarters of Google in Mountain View, Calif., after reports surfaced that Apple's new Maps app contained glaring imperfections, such as removing the Statue of Liberty from its perch in New York harbor. Apple's decision to boot Google Maps from the list of pre-installed apps on the newest version of its mobile operating system, iOS6, replacing it with the company's own error-prone version, no doubt only added to Google's joy. Apple also kicked out another popular Google app, YouTube, in the same software update."/>

			<outline text="Here is the context for those who have not been following the Maps flap: Apple rolled out the new Maps-containing iOS6 on September 19 for installation on its devices. The operating system comes pre-installed in the latest smartphone, the iPhone 5, and is an update on older devices. By most reports, the iPhone 5 is the best-selling iPhone yet: more than five million in the three days after the device's September 21 launch, or about one million more than the iPhone 4S in the comparable period a year ago. All of those customers will get Apple Maps as the default app. However, the app's errors are almost comically glaring: Las Vegas is depicted as a melting city, train stations are placed underwater and some bridges show up crooked. A Tumblr page is dedicated to the program's mishaps, andWired.com calls it a &quot;mapocalypse.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Mapping programs are among the most popular apps accessed on mobile devices and a key point of competition in the mobile arms race. According to Opus Research, mobile ads that appear on maps and location apps account for a quarter of about $2.5 billion spent on ads on wireless devices this year. That's up from 10% in 2010, the research firm said. Among iPhone owners, Google Maps was the second most popular app used in March, after Apple's iTunes store, online measurement firm comScore reported. With Android smartphone users, Google Maps was the third most popular, after the Android marketplace and Google Search apps."/>

			<outline text="Apple has good reason to resist ceding such a popular feature to Google, particularly since Android has overtaken iOS as the leading mobile platform. Today, Android is the top mobile operating system, claiming 51% of the smartphone market, according to an October 2 survey by comScore. Apple is second with 31.9%. Technology news site AllThingsD reported that Apple jettisoned Google Maps in part because the two companies could not come to an agreement over providing voice-guided turn-by-turn driving directions for iOS'--a feature that is available to Google Maps users on the Android platform. Sources familiar with the negotiations told AllThingsD that Apple leadership was unhappy that Google was trying to call the shots on such a key application, while Google was leery of providing voice-navigation without getting more control and greater visibility on the app'--something Apple was unwilling to provide."/>

			<outline text="The acrimony between Apple and Google is well known. In the biography of late Apple founder and CEO Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson, Jobs accused Google of stealing the idea behind Apple's operating system and coming up with Android. &quot;I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple's $40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong. I'm going to destroy Android because it's a stolen product. I'm willing to go to thermonuclear war on this,&quot; Jobs said in 2010. At the time, Apple had just sued phone maker and Android user HTC for alleged infringement of its patents on multi-touch features. The lawsuit was one of many that the Cupertino, Calif.-based firm has lobbed at companies with phones that run on Android, and it is widely believed that Google is the true target of such moves. In August, Apple won a patent infringement lawsuit against Samsung, whose Android smartphones are outselling iPhones worldwide, and was awarded damages of $1 billion."/>

			<outline text="For Apple, &quot;it's a good strategy to develop their own mapping service,&quot; says Wharton operations and information management professor Shawndra Hill. &quot;It's a key component on everyone's smartphone.&quot; Although Apple Maps appears to be a deficit right now, it's likely to become an asset as time goes on and the company is able to work out the glitches, notes Wharton marketing professor Peter Fader, who is also co-director of the Wharton Customer Analytics Initiative. &quot;This is such a non-issue. Google Maps isn't perfect. If people scoured Google Maps as carefully as they scoured Apple's Maps, they would find things that are not quite right,&quot; Fader points out. &quot;For the vast majority [of iPhone users], it's fine. They know it's early in the game and it gets better. If people want Google Maps, they can access it. It's not that [Apple] blocked Google Maps; it just doesn't come pre-installed. People will forget about this. This is nothing compared to 'antenna-gate.' Even that is entirely forgotten.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Fader is referring to a 2010 incident in which a faulty antenna design in the iPhone 4 caused degraded reception. Apple had wrapped the antenna around the device to minimize size, but users gripping the phone encountered signal interference. The tech company ultimately gave away plastic bands that go around the iPhone and sent out a software fix. In many cases, early adopters of new tech devices are more forgiving of glitches because &quot;they expect the brand-new model to be kind of buggy,&quot; Fader says, noting that the same cannot be said of other consumer products, such as movies or books, that have to do well at launch because sales can quickly tank."/>

			<outline text="When Jobs apologized for the faulty antenna, he was criticized for pointing out in his comeuppance that rival smartphones had similar issues. In a statement addressing the problems with the Maps application, current CEO Tim Cook advised iPhone owners to seek out other mapping programs, suggesting downloads of MapQuest, Microsoft's Bing and yes, Google Maps, until Apple's mapping program improved."/>

			<outline text="Who Wins'--and Who Loses"/>

			<outline text="In the flap over Maps, both Apple and Google are winners'--and losers, Wharton experts say. In the short run, Google'--where developers hope to finish a maps application for iOS devices by the end of the year'--is losing direct access to millions of iPhone users. Meanwhile, the iPhone 5 continues to enjoy robust sales despite the bad press for Apple Maps."/>

			<outline text="Google Maps will no longer be as easily accessible on iOS devices, including the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. When users search for directions within another app that involves maps'--Yelp, for example'--it will link to Apple Maps. To get to Google Maps, one has to separately access it through a search engine and retype the address being sought. If users decline to take those extra steps, Google stands to lose any benefit associated with tracking their whereabouts. Thus far, around 100 million people have downloaded iOS6, according to Apple."/>

			<outline text="The good news for Google, however, is that Apple's latest moves could cast a permanent stain upon its corporate character. &quot;The one silver lining is that Google looks like a victim here, and Apple looks like a bully,&quot; Fader says. &quot;From a public relations standpoint, Apple [appears] evil and greedy&quot; for kicking out Google Maps, a popular app beloved by users. &quot;I do think Apple made a mistake. It was dumb for them to walk away from Google just for more or less political reasons. I don't think it was for a good business reason. A lot of it was posturing on their part, trying to send signals to Google and to the consumer that we [Apple] are self-sufficient.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Whether Apple booted Google for personal or business reasons, or both, it took a risk by rolling out a flawed product. But its saving grace is that maps, though important, is only one of many features of iOS6. According to Eric Clemons, a Wharton professor of operations and information management, a company can usually get away with rolling out an inferior product if it is bundled with other applications and if it takes effort for consumers to switch to an alternative. When Microsoft introduced its Excel spreadsheet program, for example, it was widely considered to be inferior to Lotus 123. But the software got a boost by being bundled into a suite of other programs, Clemons notes. In the same way, most iPhone users will likely put up with Apple Maps because they like many of the phone's other features. &quot;No one is going to abandon an iPhone for Android just for that reason,&quot; Clemons says."/>

			<outline text="The Value of Maps"/>

			<outline text="Apple may have stumbled out of the gate, but it is a fallacy to think that Google Maps cannot be overtaken, Clemons suggests. &quot;Do you remember when no one was expected to be able to catch MapQuest? Google can be caught.&quot; To be sure, Google has a good lead: Its StreetView cars mounted with cameras already have driven five million miles recording streets and landmarks to be incorporated into Google Maps, according to a September 6 article in The Atlantic. In a statement addressing the loss of the application from iOS, the search giant described Google Maps as &quot;the most comprehensive, accurate and easy-to-use maps in the world. Our goal is to make Google Maps available to everyone who wants to use it, regardless of device, browser or operating system.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="So why did Apple dump Google Maps? David Pogue, The New York Times personal tech columnist, wrote in a September 26 article: &quot;Every time you use Google's maps, you're sending data from your phone to Google. That information'--how you're using maps, where you're going, which roads actually exist'--is extremely valuable; it can be used to improve both the maps and Google's ability to deliver location-based offers and advertising.&quot; Pogue noted that Google was not supplying the iPhone with some of the most important features in its maps that it was giving to Android phones, such as spoken navigation. That is why, when their contract renewal came up, Apple simply said &quot;no,&quot; Pogue wrote."/>

			<outline text="Meanwhile, consumers voiced their displeasure quite loudly online. &quot;There is a big outcry for a variety of reasons. Google is popular. Google also, I suspect, has an army of semi-official groupies who raise an outcry any time Google is disadvantaged by anything,&quot; Clemons says. For its part, Apple has stated that as more people use its maps, accuracy will greatly improve given that location searches are tracked. &quot;There are a few things they could do that would make it better, involving small changes to the interface to make it consume less bandwidth at the start and to make it easier to specify that you wanted to navigate from your current location to someplace,&quot; he suggests. &quot;Apple Maps does not need to be much better [than Google Maps]. It just needs to be as good and properly integrated.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Apple is accomplishing two things by kicking Google out, Clemons notes: &quot;It is protecting the privacy of its users, which could be a source of competitive advantage, and it could be denying Google detailed information on the activities, location and interests of its users, which could be another source of competitive advantage.&quot; Maps, while a popularly used feature on smartphones, are &quot;not a killer app for users, but a Trojan horse for data parasites like Google,&quot; Clemons says."/>

			<outline text="If Apple pledges not to track users, it could lure many more people from Google Maps, even if its maps are not perfect, according to Clemons. &quot;Apple can say, 'Our map respects your privacy.'&quot; Google makes most of its revenue on advertisements so it is critical for them to track users, he adds, but the company has been taken to task for privacy violations. &quot;Google sends ads based not just on searches, but on everything you do online.&quot; In contrast, Apple derives the bulk of its business from sales of Mac computers as well as iPhone, iPad, iPod and iPod Touch devices. Thus, the company is in a financial position to forgo ad revenue opportunities and possibly gain some consumer goodwill in the process, Clemons notes."/>

			<outline text="Indeed, while people's attention was focused on maps, what may have been overlooked are the enhanced privacy features in iOS6, according to an October 1 article by the Center for Democracy and Technology. &quot;When iOS6 was released last week, the 'big news' was Apple's decision to drop Google Maps. In the uproar that followed, iOS6's privacy features received little fanfare, despite undergoing a major overhaul,&quot; the group said. &quot;Many changes [that the center] has advocated for'--including giving users more control over tracking and increasing the visibility of options in the privacy settings'--have been adopted in the new version.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="But ultimately, the total ecosystem is what corrals people to a particular smartphone, experts say, whether it is iOS, Android, Windows Phone or others. An owner of several Apple devices would be hard-pressed, for example, to switch to Android because many of his or her devices use iTunes and operate on iOS. &quot;The biggest key to mobile supremacy? It has less to do with the particular apps within an ecosystem, and more to do with the size of the installed base using it,&quot; Fader says. &quot;Google/Android has an obvious advantage here because they work with so many manufacturers. Apple is unlikely to be able to match their footprint in the long run. That's the key. The size of the footprint drives the apps, not the other way around.&quot; In the end, he adds, &quot;that's where the battle will be won or lost.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Four years ago, on September 11, Barack Obama made the pilgrimage to Harlem to have lunch with Bill Clinton. The meal was the first t&amp;#170;te- -t&amp;#170;te between the soon-to-be president and the former one since the unpleasantness of the &amp;#173;Democratic nomination contest, and feelings on both sides were still raw and fraught with suspicion. Clinton's staff had wanted to include a Harlem stroll and &amp;#173;photo op as part of the visit, but Obama's people demurred'--a standoff that led each camp to ascribe race-related motives to the other. Eager to avoid awkwardness, Obama kept the conversation focused on governance, not politics. But at the end, Clinton offered to hit the campaign trail for, or with, the nominee. Obama, fighting a stomach bug, said okay and then beat a hasty exit to avoid upchucking on Clinton's shoes."/>

			<outline text="In truth, neither side was delighted at the prospect of Clinton stumping for Obama. The latter's team believed that he wouldn't move many votes, and were only interested in having the two men appear onstage together to stop the press from harping on the fact that they had not. Clinton, meanwhile, was still simmering over his treatment during the primaries'--in particular over Obama's assertion, before the Nevada caucuses, that ''Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that '... Bill Clinton did not.'' On countless conference calls with his wife's campaign, Clinton had returned obsessively to the slight, which he saw not as a gambit to get inside his head (which it was) but as Obama's genuine opinion. ''He would have been less angry if he thought it was tactical,'' a former Clinton aide remembers. ''But he thought Obama actually believed he was a shitty president.''"/>

			<outline text="Dutifully, halfheartedly, Clinton headlined a handful of solo events for Obama that October. And then, on the Wednesday before Election Day, the pair enacted their one joint appearance, in Kissimmee, Florida. Clinton's speech on that frosty night was emphatic, at times hyperactive. ''Folks, we can't fool with this!'' he declared. ''Our country is hanging in the balance; this man should be our president!'' But his talk was all of thirteen minutes long and entirely formulaic, festooned with not a single warm personal anecdote or insight."/>

			<outline text="Seated on a stool next to Clinton, Obama wore an impassive expression, as if he were being endorsed by a Kissimmee town councilman'--or a former president whose vaunted rhetorical gifts were inferior to his own. ''He thought it was fine,'' recalls a senior Obama adviser. ''We were all watching on TV, and we thought it was fine, too. But by then, nobody cared that much. We were all just so far past the Clintons.''"/>

			<outline text="Four years later, two words leap to mind: As if. Today, Hillary Clinton is the most popular member of Obama's Cabinet, and her husband is not only his greatest but most tireless political ally. This past September 11, the Y-chromosome Clinton was in Miami, ripping Mitt Romney a new one over Medicare. Since then, Clinton has campaigned for Obama in New Hampshire and Nevada, raised money for him in Boston and with him in Los Angeles'--and there is more to come. A TV ad with Clinton making the case for Obama's reelection has run 16,000 times in swing states across the country. Another, featuring a clip of Clinton's address at the Democratic convention, almost gives the impression that he is Obama's running mate. Then there is that speech itself, which another top Obama adviser tells me flatly is ''the most important moment of the campaign so far.''"/>

			<outline text="The Barack-and-Bill double act on display this fall marks a new and intriguing phase in a psychological entanglement so rich that if Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung were alive, they would surely be squabbling over it instead of Sabina Spielrein's hysteria. No one close to Obama or Clinton even bothers with the pretense that there is any real affection between them. But most concur with the assessment of a Democratic operative with tentacles deep in both worlds: that ''the relationship today is totally transactional'--and highly functional.''"/>

			<outline text="What Obama stands to gain from the transaction is plain enough to see. The support of the political figure with the highest approval rating, 69 percent, of any in America. The suasive services of a surrogate who can talk the owls down from the trees. The imprimatur of a former president associated with a period of broad and deep prosperity, imbued with unparalleled credibility on matters economic, and possessing special traction with the white working- and &amp;#173;middle-class voters whom Obama has always had a hard time reaching. What Obama stands to gain, in other words, is a healthy boost in his quest for reelection'--one all the more invaluable in the wake of his dismal performance in the first debate."/>

			<outline text="&quot;We're able to view just everything,&quot; Verizon Wireless manager boasts. Privacy groups say plan--including linking databases showing whether customers own pets--may violate wiretap law."/>

			<outline text="Verizon Wireless has begun selling information about its customers' geographical locations, app usage, and Web browsing activities, a move that raises privacy questions and could brush up against federal wiretapping law."/>

			<outline text="The company this month began offering reports to marketers showing what Verizon subscribers are doing on their phones and other mobile devices, including what iOS and Android apps are in use in which locations. It says it may link those data to third-party databases with information about customers' gender, age, and even details such as &quot;sports enthusiast, frequent diner or pet owner.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;We're able to view just everything that they do,&quot; Bill Diggins, U.S. chief for the Verizon Wireless marketing initiative, told an industry conference earlier this year. &quot;And that's really where data is going today. Data is the new oil.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Verizon Wireless says that its initiative, called Precision Market Insights, is legal because the data are aggregated and don't reveal customers' identities. Also, the company says, its customers can opt out at any time."/>

			<outline text="But hyper-detailed monitoring of customers' activity looks a lot like the deep packet inspection techniques that landed NebuAd in hot water -- including a congressional investigation -- four years ago. NebuAd's chief executive, Robert Dykes, claimed he had created &quot;anonymous profiles that cannot be hacked or reverse-engineered,&quot; but the controversy led to the company's demise."/>

			<outline text="Hanni Fakhoury, a staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation in San Francisco, said a wireless carrier that discloses information about which URLs a customer visits could run afoul of the Wiretap Act. In general, the Act says, carriers may not &quot;divulge the contents of any communication.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;I don't see any substantive difference between collecting content from one person and turning it over to someone, and collecting it from multiple people, aggregating that information and then turning the aggregated data over to someone else,&quot; Fakhoury says. &quot;In the end, there is still a capturing of content from the user at some point -- and that's what the potential (Wiretap Act) problem is.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Paul Ohm, a professor at the University of Colorado Law School currently working at the Federal Trade Commission, concluded in a law review article that federal privacy law &quot;likely forbids many invasive forms of ISP monitoring.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="At the industry event sponsored by PricewaterhouseCoopers in Los Angeles, Verizon's Diggins touted the carrier's extensive monitoring abilities: &quot;We're able to analyze what people are viewing on their handsets. If you're at an MLB game, we can tell if you're viewing ESPN, we can tell if you're viewing MLB, we can tell what social networking sites you're activating, if you're sending out mobile usage content that's user-generated on video.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Verizon Wireless declined to answer questions that CNET posed last week about how its technology works, but it did provide this statement:"/>

			<outline text="Verizon is committed to customer privacy and takes the issue seriously. The Precision program complies with the law and protects the privacy of our customers. The reports available through the program will not disclose the content of specific customer communications because each report will contain aggregate data from a large number of customers to protect privacy. Customers who do not want their data used as part of the program can opt-out at any time."/>

			<outline text="&quot;Deep&quot; vs. &quot;shallow&quot; packet inspection"/>

			<outline text="It's true, of course, that any company selling Internet connectivity needs to know the destination of packets so it can route them properly, a practice sometimes referred to as shallow packet inspection."/>

			<outline text="But monitoring which mobile apps customers are using and which URLs are visited typically means engaging in deep packet inspection, which is controversial because it's more intrusive."/>

			<outline text="Verizon Wireless' marketing literature acknowledges that it sells &quot;mobile-usage data that offers insights on the mobile-device habits of an audience, including URL visits, app downloads and usage.&quot; (Not all carriers do: Google guarantees that its proof-of-concept Google Fiber project &quot;will not engage in deep packet inspection&quot; except when necessary to fend off network attacks.)"/>

			<outline text="Ryan Radia, associate director of technology studies at the Competitive Enterprise Institute think tank, agrees with the EFF's Fakhoury that disclosing aggregated URLs visited can be legally risky. &quot;If Verizon Wireless discloses the URLs you've accessed without your consent, it has violated (the Wiretap Act) -- even if Verizon Wireless doesn't disclose any other identifying information,&quot; he Radia."/>

			<outline text="But, Radia argues, Verizon has obtained consent for its Precision Market Insights program by updating its privacy policy and allowing customers to opt-out. That's sufficient to satisfy the Wiretap Act by putting the company's subscribers on notice, he says, and notes that a lawsuit that arose out of NebuAd's monitoring was dismissed last year (PDF)."/>

			<outline text="The 2003 In Re Pharmatrak decision from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit offers a glimpse of how judges view whether customers truly consented. The court ruled in a case involving Web tracking &quot;that it makes more sense to place the burden of showing consent on the party seeking the benefit of the exception.&quot; The judges approvingly cited a second case, which said &quot;consent can only be implied when the surrounding circumstances convincingly show that the party knew about and consented to the interception.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="In addition, a Florida appeals court has ruled that a state law closely resembling the Wiretap Act is violated when information about &quot;websites visited by the user&quot; is intercepted without consent. Wiretap Act violations can be punished by damages of $100 per victim per day or $10,000 per victim, whichever is greater."/>

			<outline text="Verizon's Diggins said the carrier had created &quot;a very sophisticated system&quot; so advanced it can predict what customers will want: &quot;We're able to identify what that customer likes not by filling out a form, but by analyzing what they do on a day-to-day basis. We're able to serve them products that we know they like because we've seen that they've gone through and downloaded products like it.&quot; One potential customer for the Precision program, he said, is a sports arena that wants to know more about who's attending a game."/>

			<outline text="There is an irony here: as the online advertising market is shifting toward behavioral targeting, sometimes called interest-based ads, companies like Facebook, Yahoo, Google, and Microsoft are able to compile detailed profiles on their users. But because of legal twists -- and, perhaps, an old-fashioned cultural norm skeptical of the telephone company listening in on calls -- broadband and wireless providers are being left behind."/>

			<outline text="On the other hand, ads make Facebook and Google free to use. Says Christopher Soghoian, principal technologist with the ACLU's Speech, Privacy and Technology Project: &quot;When you pay a company $80 a month, they have no business monetizing the data they're collecting.&quot;"/>

Most shocking is news that Sheldon Richman is no longer at the Koch-controlled Foundation for Economic Education:Morning musings: my impression is that libertarianism has been growing in the past few decades, and more and more young and maturing libertarians are influenced by Austrian economics and anti-war, anti-state and anti-IP Rothbardian/radical libertarianism.

			<outline text="Fraud is an illegitimate thing."/>

			<outline text="When one has nothing but frauds, one has nothing but bastardized truth which is deception which is lies, which is the spawn of satan, for that is the father of lies."/>

			<outline text="When the establishment conservatives suddenly seize upon the exclusives of this blog and still remain too pansy to actuall say the words in ANALGATE over Chris Stevens and others murder, it is no different than Mark Levin taking years to utter the world MARXIST concerning B. Hussein or taking 6 weeks to come to the conclusion in his cowardice that the Gulf Gusher was deliberate sabotage by the regime to shut down American oil production."/>

			<outline text="This blog has led the way in ALL OF THIS. It has been banned from posting comment on World Tribune after Robert Morton requested me to write an editorial."/>

			<outline text="None of this is any different that Daniel Pipes coming to the &quot;conclusion&quot; on subjects after I posted on this site the same thing weeks prior. I have been banned from Huffington Post, Front Page and yes that Tony Wiener, Noel the Coward Shepherd thought he too could come in and bash around a woman who called him out on saying Sarah Palin liked political rape, with his chumster Camille Paglia."/>

			<outline text="It is all the same my children from Rush Limbaugh plagiarising this blog, to the use of this blog by World Net Daily. The machinations of this established machine goes from top to bottom in these homosexual honeys have me doing the heavy work and then they like their brat commenters rip this blog ON THE FIELD I CLEARED in removing racism, homophobia and the untouchable Obama, so they are not having federal police banging on their doors to shut them up, the way Lawrence Sinclair experienced in 2008.I promised I would never forget that American and I never will stop making note of what Obama, Greta and the rest did to him in making him a political prisoner in America like Lt. Col. Terry Lakin."/>

			<outline text="You have this field, because this blog did the dirty work. Because this blog took the mines out in stating the rude and profane things in driving back these thugs and exposing their crimes. By God's Grace this was accomplished, and it included stomping Rush Limbaugh into losing radio stations and exposing his lies about biofuels which if America did not have alchohol fuels as George W. Bush created, you would be burning 7 dollar a gallon gas right now, funding trillions more in 9 11 events."/>

			<outline text="Where this foundation or prelude is going is important as Ambassador Chris Stevens and his gay entourage were murdered in mass with anal rape. These frauds like Mike Gallagher the happy consevative, can whisper about it being bigger than Watergate in the murders, but they can not as cowards say the word ANALGATE as broken by this blog."/>

			<outline text="Gallagher will champion that liberal fraud Obama voter from FOX in Chris Wallace in taking on Adolf Axelrod spinning Romney was using ANALGATE as a political event, but the problem is when Axelrod was spewing about &quot;let the investigation take it's course&quot; all Wallace could do was shout.............."/>

			<outline text="Hey Chris Wallace you Obama voter, how about calmly just stating the fact in, &quot;Mr. Axelrod what investigation, in you took 2 weeks to get the FBI into Libya and only as far as Tripoli. There is no investigation, but a cover up of your regime's crimes which FOX has been a part of in your blackmailing Rupert Murdoch and taking away his media empire!&quot;"/>

			<outline text="That is the fact my children and it was broken here as thee only new stories which have been broken for the past 4 years have been broken here from Stuxnetgate to now Analgate."/>

			<outline text="If you want the connect the dots it is simple. Stevens wanted security. He applied to Hillary Clinton, who denied it, so that a hostage even would take place that she had intelligence puff lip rumors on to tie this directly to Barack Hussein Jimmy Carter as in 1980 to bring down Obama, as the Clinton's are in bed with Mitt Romney for his win, so Hillary can win in 2016 as she does not want to face Jeb &quot;clinton skeleton's in the closet&quot; Bush.Hillary knew what was up, and helped set up the hostage taking. Of course as was reported here, Obama thought it was going to be hostages taken, and then rescued before the first debate for his to seal the election theft."/>

			<outline text="Problem was the Obama al Qaeda is a bastard lot like him, and they sold out. You can not keep secrets in the Middle East as Ronald Reagan found out in Iran Contra. Every damn one of those merchants is a gossip and sells out their own sex partner camel for a bowl of couscous."/>

			<outline text="This is Russian Roulette in a Mexican stand off and I informed all of you about this, as they are all dirty and all shooting at each other, and Chris Stevens gets anal raped and mass murdered, and Hillary was plotting something and got screwd on it, Obama was plotting something and got screwed on it and then there is Romney in the Casey Associates who got wind of this nightmare and &quot;for the cause&quot; were doing a non hostage rescue but release as in 1980 like Iran to benefit Romney as it helped bring down Obama.All blew up because it was Muslim murderers involved, and the Casey Associates went in and shot the entire lot with a mixed bag of civilian and military enforcers."/>

			<outline text="This is what ANALGATE is. Muslim Obama playing with his terrorists for an election theft. Hillary angling for 2016. The Cowboys getting into the mix as everyone knew Obama was behind this hostage taking, and the Marxist mullahs raping a sodomite Ambassador who had no business ever being stationed in a Muslim nation, no more than his gay parade being put into this situation where a mass murder took place."/>

			<outline text="It is pathetic in Chris Steven's father being quoted by Adolf Axelrod in his not liking his son being politicized. Perhaps the reality is a father should be marching like Cindy Sheehan not in BUSH LIED PEOPLE DIED, but in THE F*CK STOPS HERE at the gates of the Obama occupation of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue."/>

			<outline text="Until these pansy fraud  conservatives get off their asses and just follow this blog in stating what this story is in ANALGATE to bestow on it the bestial nature of this heinous crime, they are as has been since Day One, nothing but enablers of this criminal Obama regime, now being blackmailed by most the countries in the Middle East costing you billions of dollars over this ANALGATE."/>

			<outline text="Oh yes, Sean Hannity, Mr. Abyss, that defination came from this blog too, but you rich bastards of Mockingbird  can not quote what goes on here or else everyone is going to know what frauds you are from top to bottom on the right and the left."/>

			<outline text="This is no Harry Truman fraud in his giving away central Europe, the atomic bomb and China in claiming THE BUCK STOPS HERE. No this is the Obama equal in giving away central Europe, giving Iran the atomic bomb and Asia to China in electioneering THE FUCK STOPS HERE, as this all comes from the Barack Hussein Obama desk, and every Mike Gallagher conservative is there holding down the American Virgin to be  raped as the Adolf Axelrods provide the whips and chains and broom handles."/>

			<outline text="Come on Chris Wallace, Mike Gallagher, big mouth Mark Levin, how about doing your satan cursed jobs you Faustian Freeloaders in someone asking the obvious in the pattern.........."/>

			<outline text="Gee John Roberts looks like he was blackmailed for Obamacare."/>

			<outline text="Gee FBI Director Mueller has been absent for 4 years of Obama crimes and his FBI was kept out of Libya so the crime scene could be wiped clean, but CNN could get into the anal diaries with Teabagger Anderson Cooper."/>

			<outline text="Amazing how those facts are never brought up except here."/>

			<outline text=".........or is it, there is so much blackmail dirt that all these Obama enablers just never find the stories, until months after they are broken here first."/>

			<outline text="That is the Barack Hussein Obama legacy. The Fuck Starts Here. The Fuck Stops Here and his rapist mob on the Chris Matthews left and Rush Limbaugh right are gagging the Virgin so the electorate will not call the FBI on these crimes."/>

			<outline text="For all of the frauds who do not like the f word or profanity, and have used it more than this blog ever has, just remember your profane natures hiding in Christianity, sodomy or liberalism, and how not defining Barack Obama in ANALGATE is only getting more people murdered daily around this globe."/>

			<outline text="The f*cking all starts and stops with each of you as you protect your piles of money in your fraud jobs parroting your puppet masters stories, all so you can go home at night and lie about how much better you are than the rest of the mob."/>

			<outline text="If you ask Barack Obama or Mitt Romney, or merely wander in front of a television when they are speaking, they will confidently tell you the same thing: This election poses a fundamental choice to America. And they are right. America is struggling to pull out of its deepest economic crisis in 80 years. The past four years have unleashed a raw, bitter war over economic class, our social obligation to the poor and sick, and the basic sustainability of the modern state that has existed since Franklin Roosevelt. Various events have conspired to compress the decisive battles of the war into a brief period at the beginning of the next year, in what will likely be an atmosphere of economic crisis. ''2013,'' says Paul Ryan, correctly, ''is the magic year that determines how all this gets resolved.''"/>

			<outline text="But when you press the candidates to explain just how it is they could escape the muck that has ensnared Obama the past two years, they descend into mushy platitudes. Romney promises ''leadership in Washington that will actually bring people together and get the job done, and could not care less if it's a Republican or a Democrat'''--at most a mild Republican retreat from Obama's aggressive reforms, or perhaps even a reprise of Romney's often liberal tenure in Massachusetts. Obama, for his part, has offered up an even less plausible scenario, which is that, even though Republicans in Congress responded to his 2008 victory by becoming even more radical than they were under George W. Bush, winning a second election will beat the crazy out of them and usher in a new era of legislative compromise and good feelings."/>

			<outline text="It seems natural to conclude from all this vapid, buoyant patter that neither candidate has a plausible blueprint to avoid political gridlock, and that, whoever wins, the stalemate of the past two years will grind on into the next four. President Obama would still likely face a Republican House, and President Romney a Senate in which Democrats can mount a filibuster. Yet all the signs suggest both candidates do have strategies in mind to prod the creaky machinery of Washington to life and effect the dramatic change they vaguely but ardently promise. In fact, shortly after the next Inaugural Ball'--perhaps very, very shortly after'--the great stalemate between socialism and social Darwinism will break open and likely turn decisively in one direction or the other."/>

			<outline text="For different reasons, the candidates cannot openly describe these plans to the voters. But the clues are everywhere."/>

			<outline text="Let's first imagine that, on January 20, Romney takes the oath of office. Of the many secret post-victory plans floating around in the inner circles of the campaigns, the least secret is Romney's intention to implement Paul Ryan's budget. The Ryan budget has come to be almost synonymous with the Republican Party agenda, and Romney has embraced it with only slight variations. It would repeal Obamacare, cut income-tax rates, turn Medicare for people under 55 years old into subsidized private insurance, increase defense spending, and cut domestic spending, with especially large cuts for Medicaid, food stamps, and other programs targeted to the very poor."/>

			<outline text="Few voters understand just how rapidly Romney could achieve this, rewriting the American social compact in one swift stroke. Ryan's plan has never attracted Democratic support, but it is not designed for bipartisanship. Ryan deliberately built it to circumvent a Senate filibuster, stocking the plan with budget legislation that is allowed, under Senate ''budget reconciliation'' procedures, to pass with a simple majority. Republicans have been planning the mechanics of the vote for many months, and Republican insiders expect Romney to use reconciliation to pass the bill. Republicans would still need to control 50 votes in the Senate (Ryan, as vice-president, would cast the tiebreaking vote), but if Romney wins the presidency, he'll likely precipitate a partywide tail wind that would extend to the GOP's Senate slate."/>

			<outline text="One might suppose that at least a handful of Republicans might blanch at the prospect of reshaping the entire face of government unilaterally. But Ryan's careful organizing of the party agenda has all taken place with this vote as the end point, and with the clear goal of sidestepping any such objection. When Republicans won control of Congress during the 2010 elections, Ryan successfully lobbied the party to take a vote on his budget plan the following April. The plan stood no chance of passage (given Obama's certain veto) and exposed dozens of vulnerable House members to withering attacks over its unpopular provisions. So why hold a vote carrying huge potential risk and no chance of immediate success? So Ryan could get the party on record supporting his plan, depriving quiet dissidents of any future excuse to defect should the real vote come in 2013."/>

			<outline text="The temperature in the Fukushima Daiichi Unit 4 spent fuel pool never exceeded 90 degrees C and the level in the pool never fell below the top of the used fuel that was stored there. The Chairman of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the people who supported his testimony to Congress on the afternoon of March 16, 2011 were dead wrong."/>

			<outline text="He swore to the world that the pool was dry and the fuel was burning. His recommendation to evacuate all Americans who were within 50 miles of the facility caused intense embarrassment for one of America's strongest allies and slowed the development of the only technology with the proven capability of supplying reliable power anywhere and everywhere on earth without releasing greenhouse gases. Jaczko's testimony was the seed of a continuing campaign of misinformation about the conditions in the unit 4 spent fuel pool."/>

			<outline text="Chairman Jaczko's announcement of the spent fuel pool fire and his evacuation recommendations were based on sketchy information, faulty logic, and poor assumptions about the physical behavior of simple materials like steel and water."/>

			<outline text="Those are the conclusions that should have been announced upon completion of a paper titled Study of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station Unit 4 Spent-Fuel Pool. Instead, the research team of Dean Wang, Ian C. Gauld, Graydon L. Yoder, Larry J. Ott, George F. Flanagan, Matthew W. Francis, Emilian L. Popov, Juan J. Carbajo, Prashant K. Jain, John C. Wagner, and Jess C. Gehin completed their paper in December 2011 and submitted it to the peer review process for Nuclear Technology. That process involves no sense of urgency or understanding of the important political aspects of this particular topic.The paper was accepted for publication in January 2012; the people who reviewed determined that it was accurate. There must be quite a queue of papers waiting for publication at Nuclear Technology; the paper has finally been published in the November 2012 issue of the journal and is available for subscribers or for individual purchase (for a bargain price of just $30.00) on the web. I suspect that it is fated to be greeted with silence instead of the loud acclaim I believe it deserves."/>

			<outline text="The paper authors have done little to draw attention to their important work, hiding their conclusions in dry scientific language full of acronyms and passive voice that requires reference to other sources for full understanding of what they are trying to say. Here is the abstract:"/>

			<outline text="A study on the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station spent-fuel pool (SFP) at Unit 4 (SFP4) is presented in this paper. We discuss the design characteristics of SFP4 and its decay heat load in detail and provide a model that we developed to estimate the SFP evaporation rate based on the SFP temperature. The SFP level of SFP4 following the March 11, 2011, accident is predicted based on the fundamental conservation laws of mass and energy. Our predicted SFP level and temperatures are in good agreement with measured data and are consistent with Tokyo Electric Power Company evaluation results."/>

			<outline text="The quote below is one of the most important paragraphs in the paper. It provides support for my assertion on March 17, 2012 that Chairman Jaczko's testimony was dangerously wrong and not based on physical realities."/>

			<outline text="It is interesting to make some simple calculations. For example, the SFP will daily lose 2 tons of water when the SFP temperature is at 40 C. The water loss would increase to 86 tons when the SFP temperature reaches 87.5 C, which means that such an evaporation rate would take away all the decay heat of SPF4 without reaching the boiling temperature. It should be pointed out that this analysis is very important to understand the SFP temperature data collected in SFP4. SFP4 would reach the equilibrium temperature within 2 days during the loss of SFP cooling with a total decay heat of 2.28 MW. We should not expect any observable changes in the SFP temperature over a short time (days to months) during a loss-of-cooling event since the decay heat change is small. We will discuss this later in the paper."/>

			<outline text="(Emphasis added.)"/>

			<outline text="That information should be considered in all proposed regulatory actions to improve monitoring and cooling capabilities for spent fuel pools, but I suspect it will be ignored in the battle to create the most ''conservative'' models possible."/>

			<outline text="Here is the rather quiet conclusion from the Nuclear Technology paper."/>

			<outline text="'... it is reasonably concluded that there would have been no large leakage in the SFP and no occurrence of fuel uncovery at any time."/>

			<outline text="The below statement helps to explain why this paper and its important conclusions have been soft peddled."/>

			<outline text="This manuscript has been authored by UT-Battelle LLC under contract DE-AC05-00OR22725 with the U.S. Department of Energy."/>

			<outline text="There is not usually much appetite among politically dependent funding sources for issuing clearly written materials that show that statements made by the heads of other agencies were completely wrong, especially when the person who made the false statement in the first place was backed up by the President and the Senate Majority Leader."/>

			<outline text="Are you getting the sense that I think there is a serious need for recalibration of the perceived risk to benefit ratio for nuclear energy? Not only are the benefits of an emission free, energy dense, reliable power source understated, but the hazards from the use of the power source have been hugely overstated. Nuclear energy is capable of rapid growth, important to the prosperity of billions of human beings, and extremely safe when handled with moderate care."/>

This is when the ones and twos are equal, but I was originally pointed here by my son (Sun). Most of November has more 1s. 12.12.12 is equal again, and 2.12.12 and 22.12.12 have more 2's. I don't know what it means, but I know it matters. The days are labelled for a reason.  The third key...I have discovered two keys, the gold watery Queen Quay, and the silver King Key. Is there a third one, the master key of life itself? Qi is the Chinese word for the meridian lines through your body, that need to be in good shape for well being and health. Is it the Qi that unlocks everything? The murder of Jesus gives us clues towards this. Look where the nails have been placed.

Clearly AA means something of major importance! We are all being carefully mapped to exactly where we live, and it has got nothing to do with delivering the post. It is very good for collecting data on how your location influences your life and health The post delivery thing is a cover story to allow it to be hidden in plain view. Cities are postal centres because they are energy centres. Cities are all built on sacred sites. See http://suliwrites.wordpress.com/2012/10/09/city-sites/The Sun on Savile...The Sun seems to be blasting out about Savile every day as the lead story, unlike some of the other papers. Today, they have shifted their position a little bit. There used to be an emphasis on the youngest victim being 13, and pictures were shown that looked as if the victims were happy and willing, as if paving the way for saying that it wasn't anything too awful really. Now the youngest victim is a 9 year old boy scout who does not look at all happy. They have also reported the necrophilia side of things. Alongside this there is a story of how fantastic Prince Harry is killing people - &quot;the enemy&quot; - in one of the UK wars, I forget which one. One more step, The Sun, please expose Savile as part of the global paedophilia network that includes the Royals and prime ministers and presidents. He is not an isolated one off paedophile.

			<outline text="by MICHAEL HUDSON | Counter Punch"/>

			<outline text="Book V of Aristotle's Politics describes the eternal transition of oligarchies making themselves into hereditary aristocracies '' which end up being overthrown by tyrants or develop internal rivalries as some families decide to ''take the multitude into their camp'' and usher in democracy, within which an oligarchy emerges once again, followed by aristocracy, democracy, and so on throughout history."/>

			<outline text="Debt has been the main dynamic driving these shifts '' always with new twists and turns. It polarizes wealth to create a creditor class, whose oligarchic rule is ended as new leaders (''tyrants'' to Aristotle) win popular support by cancelling the debts and redistributing property or taking its usufruct for the state."/>

			<outline text="Since the Renaissance, however, bankers have shifted their political support to democracies. This did not reflect egalitarian or liberal political convictions as such, but rather a desire for better security for their loans. As James Steuart explained in 1767, royal borrowings remained private affairs rather than truly public debts. For a sovereign's debts to become binding upon the entire nation, elected representatives had to enact the taxes to pay their interest charges."/>

			<outline text="By giving taxpayers this voice in government, the Dutch and British democracies provided creditors with much safer claims for payment than did kings and princes whose debts died with them. But the recent debt protests from Iceland to Greece and Spain suggest that creditors are shifting their support away from democracies. They are demanding fiscal austerity and even privatization sell-offs."/>

			<outline text="This is turning international finance into a new mode of warfare. Its objective is the same as military conquest in times past: to appropriate land and mineral resources, also communal infrastructure and extract tribute. In response, democracies are demanding referendums over whether to pay creditors by selling off the public domain and raising taxes to impose unemployment, falling wages and economic depression. The alternative is to write down debts or even annul them, and to re-assert regulatory control over the financial sector."/>

			<outline text="Near Eastern rulers proclaimed clean slates for debtors to preserve economic balanceCharging interest on advances of goods or money was not originally intended to polarize economies. First administered early in the third millennium BC as a contractual arrangement by Sumer's temples and palaces with merchants and entrepreneurs who typically worked in the royal bureaucracy, interest at 20 per cent (doubling the principal in five years) was supposed to approximate a fair share of the returns from long-distance trade or leasing land and other public assets such as workshops, boats and ale houses."/>

			<outline text="As the practice was privatized by royal collectors of user fees and rents, ''divine kingship'' protected agrarian debtors. Hammurabi's laws (c. 1750 BC) cancelled their debts in times of flood or drought. All the rulers of his Babylonian dynasty began their first full year on the throne by cancelling agrarian debts so as to clear out payment arrears by proclaiming a clean slate. Bondservants, land or crop rights and other pledges were returned to the debtors to ''restore order'' in an idealized ''original'' condition of balance. This practice survived in the Jubilee Year of Mosaic Law in Leviticus 25."/>

			<outline text="The logic was clear enough. Ancient societies needed to field armies to defend their land, and this required liberating indebted citizens from bondage. Hammurabi's laws protected charioteers and other fighters from being reduced to debt bondage, and blocked creditors from taking the crops of tenants on royal and other public lands and on communal land that owed manpower and military service to the palace."/>

			<outline text="In Egypt, the pharaoh Bakenranef (c. 720-715 BC, ''Bocchoris'' in Greek) proclaimed a debt amnesty and abolished debt-servitude when faced with a military threat from Ethiopia. According to Diodorus of Sicily (I, 79, writing in 40-30 BC), he ruled that if a debtor contested the claim, the debt was nullified if the creditor could not back up his claim by producing a written contract. (It seems that creditors always have been prone to exaggerate the balances due.) The pharaoh reasoned that ''the bodies of citizens should belong to the state, to the end that it might avail itself of the services which its citizens owed it, in times of both war and peace. For he felt that it would be absurd for a soldier '... to be haled to prison by his creditor for an unpaid loan, and that the greed of private citizens should in this way endanger the safety of all.''"/>

			<outline text="The fact that the main Near Eastern creditors were the palace, temples and their collectors made it politically easy to cancel the debts. It always is easy to annul debts owed to oneself. Even Roman emperors burned the tax records to prevent a crisis. But it was much harder to cancel debts owed to private creditors as the practice of charging interest spread westward to Mediterranean chiefdoms after about 750 BC. Instead of enabling families to bridge gaps between income and outgo, debt became the major lever of land expropriation, polarizing communities between creditor oligarchies and indebted clients. In Judah, the prophet Isaiah (5:8-9) decried foreclosing creditors who ''add house to house and join field to field till no space is left and you live alone in the land.''"/>

			<outline text="Creditor power and stable growth rarely have gone together. Most personal debts in this classical period were the product of small amounts of money lent to individuals living on the edge of subsistence and who could not make ends meet. Forfeiture of land and assets '' and personal liberty '' forced debtors into bondage that became irreversible. By the 7th century BC, ''tyrants'' (popular leaders) emerged to overthrow the aristocracies in Corinth and other wealthy Greek cities, gaining support by cancelling the debts. In a less tyrannical manner, Solon founded the Athenian democracy in 594 BC by banning debt bondage."/>

			<outline text="But oligarchies re-emerged and called in Rome when Sparta's kings Agis, Cleomenes and their successor Nabis sought to cancel debts late in the third century BC. They were killed and their supporters driven out. It has been a political constant of history since antiquity that creditor interests opposed both popular democracy and royal power able to limit the financial conquest of society '' a conquest aimed at attaching interest-bearing debt claims for payment on as much of the economic surplus as possible."/>

			<outline text="When the Gracchi brothers and their followers tried to reform the credit laws in 133 BC, the dominant Senatorial class acted with violence, killing them and inaugurating a century of Social War, resolved by the ascension of Augustus as emperor in 29 BC."/>

			<outline text="Rome's creditor oligarchy wins the Social War, enslaves the population and brings on a Dark AgeMatters were more bloody abroad. Aristotle did not mention empire building as part of his political schema, but foreign conquest always has been a major factor in imposing debts, and war debts have been the major cause of public debt in modern times. Antiquity's harshest debt levy was by Rome, whose creditors spread out to plague Asia Minor, its most prosperous province. The rule of law all but disappeared when publican creditor ''knights''  arrived. Mithridates of Pontus led three popular revolts, and local populations in Ephesus and other cities rose up and killed a reported 80,000 Romans in 88 BC. The Roman army retaliated, and Sulla imposed war tribute of 20,000 talents in 84 BC. Charges for back interest multiplied this sum six-fold by 70 BC."/>

			<outline text="Among Rome's leading historians, Livy, Plutarch and Diodorus blamed the fall of the Republic on creditor intransigence in waging the century-long Social War marked by political murder from 133 to 29 BC. Populist leaders sought to gain a following by advocating debt cancellations (e.g., the Catiline conspiracy in 63-62 BC). They were killed. By the second century AD about a quarter of the population was reduced to bondage. By the fifth century Rome's economy collapsed, stripped of money. Subsistence life reverted to the countryside."/>

			<outline text="Creditors find a legalistic reason to support parliamentary democracyWhen banking recovered after the Crusades looted Byzantium and infused silver and gold to review Western European commerce, Christian opposition to charging interest was overcome by the combination of prestigious lenders (the Knights Templars and Hospitallers providing credit during the Crusades) and their major clients '' kings, at first to pay the Church and increasingly to wage war. But royal debts went bad when kings died. The Bardi and Peruzzi went bankrupt in 1345 when Edward III repudiated his war debts. Banking families lost more on loans to the Habsburg and Bourbon despots on the thrones of Spain, Austria and France."/>

			<outline text="Hillary Clinton has taken responsibility for the deadly security breach at the US diplomatic mission in Benghazi, saying the buck stopped with her and not the White House."/>

			<outline text="The secretary of state took the blame in an interview to CNN on Monday night in what will be seen as an attempt to deflect Republican attacks on Barack Obama over the affair on the eve of the second presidential debate."/>

			<outline text="&quot;I take responsibility,&quot; she said in Lima, Peru, in her first interview about the 11 September attack that killed the US ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens, and three other Americans."/>

			<outline text="&quot;I'm in charge of the state department's 60,000-plus people all over the world [at] 275 posts. The president and the vice-president wouldn't be knowledgeable about specific decisions that are made by security professionals [who are] the ones who weigh all of the threats and the risks and the needs and make a considered decision.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Mitt Romney's campaign has hammered the administration over the security breach and its different explanations of how it happened. Romney is expected to continue the line of attack in Tuesday's debate."/>

			<outline text="The issue gained traction during last week's vice-presidential debate when Joe Biden said the White House had been unaware of requests to bolster security at the consulate. That appeared to contradict testimony from state department officials who said requests had been made and rejected."/>

			<outline text="A diplomatic cable presented to a congressional oversight and government reform committee tasked with investigating the affair showed that Stevens asked the state department for an additional 11 security personnel weeks before the attack. Republicans have demanded the administration reveal who knew what and when, saying there was a lack of transparency and that the attack showed the failure of Obama's Middle East foreign policy."/>

			<outline text="On Sunday David Axelrod, a key member of the president's inner circle, said Romney was &quot;working hard to exploit the issue&quot; for political gain."/>

			<outline text="Clinton's remarks on Monday tried to draw the fire by saying neither Obama nor Biden was involved in the decision. &quot;I want to avoid some kind of political gotcha,&quot; she said, shortly after arriving in Lima for a conference on women and entrepreneurship."/>

			<outline text="Commentators said it was an attempt to shield the president. &quot;This was a purely political move to give Obama breathing room tomorrow night. That's it,&quot; said therightscoop.com."/>

			<outline text="The secretary of state rebuffed criticism that administration officials continued to depict the attack as a spontaneous backlash against an anti-Islam film even after evidence emerged showing it was planned beforehand by a radical, well-armed group."/>

			<outline text="In the immediate aftermath of such events there was always &quot;confusion&quot; and &quot;fog of war&quot;, Clinton said. She described an &quot;intense, long ordeal&quot; for staffers at the state department on the night of the attack as they struggled to find out what was happening and respond."/>

			<outline text="Clinton said her mission now was to make sure such an attack never happened again but that diplomacy, even in perilous parts of the Arab world, must continue. &quot;We can't not engage,&quot; she said. &quot;We cannot retreat.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Unless you consume a lot of conservative media, you might not have seen the &quot;Obama phone&quot; video that led the Drudge Report in September. An Ohio voter, a black woman, thanked the president for giving her a phone. Some quick follow-up reporting revealed the bland truth that this free phone program began decades ago. But for a certain sort of voter, it was indeliable."/>

			<outline text="And now it's going to appear in a TV ad. The Tea Party Victory Fund, a new Super PAC, has clipped the video, added a black and white filter, and asked possible donors to help air it in Ohio."/>

			<outline text="The pitch is written by the Fund's titular chairman Ken Blackwell, Ohio's former secretary of state -- and, important for the messaging here, a black man."/>

			<outline text="This is it-- this is the October surprise. We just need to get this ad on television today.Will you help us?"/>

			<outline text="This commercial is a microcosm of the difference between Republicans and Democrats. Republicans want to create an environment where free people make their own choices and pursue their dreams. President Obama and the Democrats want to create a dependency on Government that ensures that Americans will continue to rely on Washington from cradle to grave."/>

			<outline text="What this lady said is so offensive because it's so blatant--she finally comes out and says what we all know that the Democrats really think. That's why this ad is so damaging to the President here in Ohio."/>

			<outline text="Let me tell you something, I'm from Ohio -- I was elected statewide as the Secretary of State, and Ohio State Treasurer--this ad is effective. If swing voters in this state see this ad, they simply will not support President Obama, and he will lose Ohio."/>

Naturally they've seen each other from time to time at my (ever more infrequent) gatherings and dinner parties. The two exchanged warm hellos and briefly caught each other up on main life events.As I handed over the pears one friend had to leave, said goodbye to us both, and left out the front door. The other friend looked at me and said, &quot;did you see this? We're dressed exactly the same!!&quot;"/>

			<outline text="I got up and turned around (there's a mirror on the wall) and we stood there, side by side, sure enough, &quot;brown long sleeve shirts, jeans, black vests, black shoes...

			<outline text="Chrysler Opens Dealer Orders for Natural Gas Ram Pickup"/>

			<outline text="By Craig TrudellOctober 14, 2012 6:01 PM EDT"/>

			<outline text="Chrysler Group LLC, the automaker controlled by Fiat SpA (F), is making its natural gas-powered Ram pickup available for sale to retail buyers, according to the head of the company's dealership network."/>

			<outline text="Chrysler began allowing all dealers to order the Ram 2500 Heavy Duty CNG pickup in September, Peter Grady, vice president of network development and fleet, said in an interview. Chrysler, which initially made the truck available only to fleet buyers, joins Honda Motor Co. (7267) as the only automakers selling compressed natural gas vehicles to U.S. retail consumers."/>

			<outline text="''The dealers have been asking for it, they've been clamoring, particularly in the natural gas states and in some of these places where you're starting to get infrastructure,'' Grady said in an interview at his office in Auburn Hills, Michigan, where Chrysler is based. States where the fuel and infrastructure are most available include California, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania, he said."/>

			<outline text="Sergio Marchionne, chief executive officer of Chrysler and Turin, Italy-based Fiat, has argued that natural gas engines are cheaper and more viable than plug-in hybrid and electric cars. The battery-electric Fiat 500, scheduled to start production later this year, will generate losses of about $14,000 per unit sold, Marchionne said last week in London."/>

			<outline text="''The electric technology just isn't advanced, it's not there, and there's so much innovation that's required to make it viable,'' Grady said. ''We've got to be there in some fashion, whether it's hybrids or whatever, but right now, compressed natural gas is here.''"/>

			<outline text="Fiat is the market leader for compressed natural gas vehicles in Europe, with about 90 percent market share in Italy. Sales of vehicles fueled by natural gas and propane surged 90 percent to 114,226 vehicles through August, accounting for 11.6 percent of the market. That's up from a 4.9 percent share a year earlier."/>

			<outline text="Under U.S. fuel-economy standards released Aug. 28, natural gas-powered vehicles were made eligible for credits aimed at reducing emissions. Chrysler testified to the Senate's Energy and Natural Resources Committee in July and advocated for parity between natural gas-powered cars and trucks and other alternative-fuel vehicles."/>

			<outline text="Chrysler's Ram 2500 Heavy Duty CNG pickup features both compressed gas storage tanks and a conventional gasoline fuel tank, the company said in a March 6 statement. The truck, which starts at $47,500 including a $995 destination charge, is designed to go 255 miles (410 kilometers) on compressed natural gas before switching to the 8-gallon (30-liter) reserve tank, extending the range to 367 miles."/>

			<outline text="''Our strategy on our investment in this product was really predicated on the natural gas industry,'' Grady said. ''We came up with the truck because that's the one that they said they would like to do. They've embraced the truck.''"/>

			<outline text="Chrysler now is seeing interest beyond buyers in the natural gas industry, he said. Additional potential fleet and commercial buyers include waste and transit companies as well as airport shuttles."/>

			<outline text="The automaker also is getting demand from states looking to add the pickup to their fleets. Chrysler said in an Oct. 5 statement that 13 of its Ram truck dealers reached contracts with 19 states to supply their fleets with the truck."/>

			<outline text="Honda is the only automaker selling cars with compressed natural gas engines to retail customers in the U.S., with its $26,305 Civic Natural Gas sedan. The Tokyo-based automaker last week said it would offer $3,000 debit cards for customers to use toward purchasing the fuel in a promotion with Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (CLNE), the largest owner of U.S. natural gas stations."/>

		<outline text="Belgian Hackers Let You Build Circuit Boards on the Web | Wired Enterprise | Wired.com">

			<outline text="Link to Article" type="link" url="http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2012/10/circuits-io/"/>

			<outline text="Mon, 15 Oct 2012 22:18"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="The rise of low-cost, hacker-friendly electronics is fueling a new wave of hardware hobbyists. Using programmable boards like the Arduino and dirt-chip computers like the Raspberry Pi, you can build everything from your very own supercomputers to an internet-connected beer fermentation refrigeration system."/>

			<outline text="But Belgium startup called Circuits.io wants to take this trend even further. It wants to give you the power to build your own custom circuit boards."/>

			<outline text="Historically, that's been expensive and difficult for hobbyists to do, but Circuits.io wants to change that by offering a web-based circuit board design system made especially for hobbyists complete with library of open source component designs. And soon it will also offer a CafePress-style print-on-demand service for circuit boards."/>

			<outline text="The company was founded earlier this year by Schrauwen Karel Bruneel and Ben Schrauwen. Bruneel is an electrical engineering post-doc at the University of Gent and the co-creator of the Arduino-like Dwengo board. ''After his Ph.D. Larel had a void he needed to fill,'' Schrauwen explains."/>

			<outline text="Schrauwen is a professor of machine learning and robotics at the University of Gent and the co-founder of Mollom, a spam filtering company that was acquired by Acquia last summer. ''After that, I had a void to fill as well,'' he says."/>

			<outline text="The two have decided to fill the void in their lives by filling a void in the electronic design automation (EDA) software market. Bruneel and Schrauwen had seen how hard it was to teach circuit design to beginners using the tools already on the market. Most of these tools are meant for large electronics companies and are too complicated and expensive for hobbyists, Schrauwen says."/>

			<outline text="Meanwhile, hobbyists are forced to design common parts of a board, such as power supplies, from scratch '-- or at least manually enter them into their design software from a schematic. In the software world, developers rely on open source libraries to avoid tediously re-creating common components. But Schrauwen says incompatibilities between different EDA applications have made it difficult to create common open source libraries for circuit boards."/>

			<outline text="Finally, once you've finished a circuit board you'll want to have it printed. But Schrauwen says that manufacturers generally have a minimum order of 1,000 units, which makes printing boards prohibitively expensive for most hobbyists. And even those who do shell out for bulk manufacture will have to wait weeks to get their hands on the final product."/>

			<outline text="Circuit.io is tackling all three of these problems. Its web-based design tool is aimed at hobbyists, and Schrauwen and Bruneel say they've kept it as simple as possible."/>

			<outline text="But what's really interesting is the component library. Circuits.io already has hundreds of components that hackers can use in their projects, and users can upload and share their own designs as well. What Circuits.io is offering is actually quite a lot like GitHub, the popular host for open source software projects."/>

			<outline text="In addition to being able to reuse components, hardware hackers will be able to ''fork'' existing ones '-- that is, make their own copy that they can modify and share. You don't even have to use the online editor '-- you can import and export designs from Eagle and another popular design program."/>

			<outline text="Schrauwen says the online editor and the open source libraries will always be free to use '-- the company will make money through its print-on-demand service."/>

			<outline text="Schrauwen says the reason it costs so much to produce printed circuit boards (PCBs) is that manufacturers have to do extensive testing and preparation of a design before it's put into production. But by standardizing its formats, Schrauwen says Circuits.io can eliminate most of this prep work, enabling them to send files to manufacturers that are ready to be printed."/>

			<outline text="By cutting out these costly early steps, Circuits.io users will be able to buy a single PCB instead of 1,000 '-- and get their hands on their boards much more quickly."/>

			<outline text="Circuits.io isn't alone in its mission. Upverter is a web-based schematics designer and online community, and Fritzing is also trying to make it cheap to produce PCBs. This movement is just getting started."/>

			<outline text="Iran has been asked to persuade the Syrian president, Bashar al-Assad, to implement a ceasefire later this month in tandem with an appeal by the UN to halt the flow of weapons to both sides in the country's bloody conflict."/>

			<outline text="Lakhdar Brahimi, the envoy for the UN and Arab League, used a weekend visit to Iran, a loyal ally of Damascus, to appeal for help in securing a ceasefire to mark Eid al-Adha, the four-day Muslim holiday later this month. In Baghdad on Monday he called on the Iraqi government to use its influence, while Nuri al-Maliki, the Iraqi prime minister, called for a speedy &quot;political solution&quot;."/>

			<outline text="Brahimi said a ceasefire would &quot;help create an environment that would allow a political process to develop&quot;, said his spokesman, Ahmad Fawzi. But Fawzi denied a report that plans were afoot to send a 3,000-strong UN peacekeeping force to Syria, drawn from an existing UN contingent in south Lebanon."/>

			<outline text="EU officials dismissed the idea as far-fetched, because it would first require a durable ceasefire and moves towards a political transition '-- both of which have proved elusive over the 19 months of the crisis."/>

			<outline text="It is clearly being discussed, though. Qatar's prime minister, Sheikh Hamad bin Jassem al Thani, said any such force would have to be &quot;well-armed&quot;."/>

			<outline text="The Syrian Network for Human Rights reported 69 people were killed in Syria on Monday, mostly in Damascus."/>

			<outline text="Brahimi, who replaced Kofi Annan last month, was due to travel on to the Egyptian capital, Cairo, his latest stop on a regional tour aimed at forging a solution to a conflict which has claimed an estimated 30,000 lives. Last week, the Algerian diplomat met leaders in Saudi Arabia and Turkey, the two Sunni states which have been the biggest supporters of the Syrian opposition."/>

			<outline text="Syria, meanwhile, denied it was using cluster bombs to crush the uprising. Human Rights Watch accused it of using the banned weapons and produced video evidence. Russia denied it had been supplying the munitions to Syria."/>

			<outline text="In Luxembourg, EU foreign ministers announced a 19th round of sanctions to freeze the assets of two Syrian firms linked to chemical and biological weapons programmes and more than two dozen people from Assad's entourage."/>

			<outline text="Britain's foreign secretary, William Hague, described the punitive measures as &quot;a clear warning to those close to the regime that if they back Assad and commit acts of violence and torture against civilians, the international community will hold them accountable&quot;."/>

			<outline text="Diplomats said one new element in the EU's approach was aid to &quot;civil society&quot; organisations on the ground inside Syria, part of a shift away from supporting the external opposition. The local co-ordination committees (LCCs) are likely to receive new help, especially in areas that are no longer under the permanent control of the Damascus government. It would, said Hague, &quot;help build essential capacity to enable a peaceful transition&quot;. New announcements are expected shortly."/>

			<outline text="In another development that highlighted the international complexity of the crisis, the New York Times reported that most weapons supplied to Syrian rebels by Qatar and Saudi Arabia were reaching jihadi-type or Salafi groups rather than the Free Syrian Army, which is backed by the mainstream opposition."/>

			<outline text="A new report by the International Crisis Group, a respected thinktank, found that Syrian rebel groups were playing up their Islamist credentials by growing Salafi-type beards, for example, as a ruse to secure arms from these conservative Gulf-based donors. Groups with no ideological affiliation had begun to adopt the symbols, rhetoric '' and facial hair '' associated with Salafism for that purpose."/>

			<outline text="Vanity Fair is admitting to making a mistake in a story in its October issue in which it claimed Janet Jackson delayed her brother Michael's funeral for several months in a dispute over money, but the magazine's admission will surely not satisfy the Nasty singer, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting."/>

			<outline text="As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Janet was accused of delaying her brother Michael's funeral three years ago because she wanted a hefty deposit of $40k returned that she had put down. According to Vanity Fair, which obtained an excerpt of a new biography on the King of Pop by Randall Sullivan, &quot;Janet put up the $40,000 deposit at Forest Lawn to secure a spot for Michael, but refused to let the funeral take place until the money was repaid.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Janet's lawyer demanded a full retraction of the story, and RadarOnline.com has confirmed through multiple sources that the Control singer did not delay Michael's funeral because she demanded repayment of 40k."/>

			<outline text="Despite that fact, in a surprising turn of events, the magazine told E! News that it stands by its story and asserted that new, just-released records indicate Janet's deposit was actually 49k. &quot;Vanity Fair stands by Randall Sullivan's assertion that Janet Jackson's demand to be reimbursed for her deposit on her brother's burial plot was one of the reasons Michael Jackson's funeral was delayed,&quot; the mag told E! News. &quot;Sullivan's sources told him that the amount of the deposit was $40,000, but records released last week indicate that the amount of the deposit was $49,000. Vanity Fair will make that correction on VF.com.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="It was one small tweet for a man, one giant marketing event for energy drink maker Red Bull: an apparently first-person account of how it feels to free-fall from the heavens and break the sound barrier, as Austrian Felix Baumgartner did this weekend."/>

			<outline text="Trouble is, Baumgartner tweeted no such thing following his record-breaking, Red Bull-sponsored leap from the edge of space on Sunday. In fact, Baumgartner said he felt nothing at all as he broke the sound barrier. Now the discrepancy has the blogosphere up in virtual arms."/>

			<outline text="''What's the deal, Red Bull?'' asked one commenter, 31ModelA, on one of the websites that posted the head-cam video from Baumgartner's death-defying stunt."/>

			<outline text="''Too bad he said the complete opposite in the press conference,'' tweeted Web Smith on the thread posted on the Twitter account of Red Bull Stratos, the name given to the leap from the edge of space."/>

			<outline text="A spokesman for the Red Bull event, Derrick Lerum, admitted that the tweet, ''I could feel myself break the speed of sound. I could feel the air building up and then I hit it'' posted on the Red Bull Stratos Twitter feed was not, in fact, authored by Baumgartner as it appeared."/>

			<outline text="''I'm not really sure where it came from,'' Lerum said by telephone. ''But I know he didn't tweet it.''"/>

			<outline text="Speaking at a news conference after breaking several records including the highest-ever parachute jump and the fastest unaided descent, Baumgartner stated clearly several times that he had no sensation of breaking the sound barrier."/>

			<outline text="''I didn't feel it,'' he said. ''When you are wearing that pressure suit you don't feel anything.''"/>

			<outline text="A marketing expert quoted on the Forbes magazine website meanwhile guessed that its sponsorship of the stunt, watched live by around eight million people, was worth tens of millions of dollars to Red Bull in terms of global brand exposure."/>

			<outline text="''Red Bull Stratos will continue to be talked about and passed along socially for a very long time,'' Forbes quoted Ben Sturner, president and CEO of Leverage Agency, a media marketing company, as saying."/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="By Jonathan Turley,Free speech is dying in the Western world. While most people still enjoy considerable freedom of expression, this right, once a near-absolute, has become less defined and less dependable for those espousing controversial social, political or religious views. The decline of free speech has come not from any single blow but rather from thousands of paper cuts of well-intentioned exceptions designed to maintain social harmony."/>

			<outline text="In the face of the violence that frequently results from anti-religious expression, some world leaders seem to be losing their patience with free speech. After a video called ''Innocence of Muslims'' appeared on YouTube and sparked violent protests in several Muslim nations last month, U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon warned that ''when some people use this freedom of expression to provoke or humiliate some others' values and beliefs, then this cannot be protected.''"/>

			<outline text="It appears that the one thing modern society can no longer tolerate is intolerance. As Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard put it in her recent speech before the United Nations, ''Our tolerance must never extend to tolerating religious hatred.''"/>

			<outline text="A willingness to confine free speech in the name of social pluralism can be seen at various levels of authority and government. In February, for instance, Pennsylvania Judge Mark Martin heard a case in which a Muslim man was charged with attacking an atheist marching in a Halloween parade as a ''zombie Muhammed.'' Martin castigated not the defendant but the victim, Ernie Perce, lecturing him that ''our forefathers intended to use the First Amendment so we can speak with our mind, not to piss off other people and cultures '-- which is what you did.''"/>

			<outline text="Of course, free speech is often precisely about pissing off other people '-- challenging social taboos or political values."/>

			<outline text="This was evident in recent days when courts in Washington and New York ruled that transit authorities could not prevent or delay the posting of a controversial ad that says: ''In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat jihad.''"/>

			<outline text="When U.S. District Judge Rosemary Collyer said the government could not bar the ad simply because it could upset some Metro riders, the ruling prompted calls for new limits on such speech. And in New York, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority responded by unanimously passing a new regulation banning any message that it considers likely to ''incite'' others or cause some ''other immediate breach of the peace.''"/>

			<outline text="Such efforts focus not on the right to speak but on the possible reaction to speech '-- a fundamental change in the treatment of free speech in the West. The much-misconstrued statement of Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes that free speech does not give you the right to shout fire in a crowded theater is now being used to curtail speech that might provoke a violence-prone minority. Our entire society is being treated as a crowded theater, and talking about whole subjects is now akin to shouting ''fire!''"/>

			<outline text="The new restrictions are forcing people to meet the demands of the lowest common denominator of accepted speech, usually using one of four rationales."/>

			<outline text="Speech is blasphemous"/>

			<outline text="This is the oldest threat to free speech, but it has experienced something of a comeback in the 21st century. After protests erupted throughout the Muslim world in 2005 over Danish cartoons depicting the prophet Muhammad, Western countries publicly professed fealty to free speech, yet quietly cracked down on anti-religious expression. Religious critics in France, Britain, Italy and other countries have found themselves under criminal investigation as threats to public safety. In France, actress and animal rights activist Brigitte Bardot has been fined several times for comments about how Muslims are undermining French culture. And just last month, a Greek atheist was arrested for insulting a famous monk by making his name sound like that of a pasta dish."/>

			<outline text="Some Western countries have classic blasphemy laws '-- such as Ireland, which in 2009 criminalized the ''publication or utterance of blasphemous matter'' deemed ''grossly abusive or insulting in relation to matters held sacred by any religion.'' The Russian Duma recently proposed a law against ''insulting religious beliefs.'' Other countries allow the arrest of people who threaten strife by criticizing religions or religious leaders. In Britain, for instance, a 15-year-old girl was arrested two years agofor burning a Koran."/>

			<outline text="Western governments seem to be sending the message that free speech rights will not protect you '-- as shown clearly last month by the images of Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, the YouTube filmmaker, being carted away in California on suspicion of probation violations. Dutch politician Geert Wilders went through years of litigation before he was acquitted last year on charges of insulting Islam by voicing anti-Islamic views. In the Netherlandsand Italy, cartoonists and comedians have been charged with insulting religion through caricatures or jokes."/>

			<outline text="Even the Obama administration supported the passage of a resolution in the U.N. Human Rights Council to create an international standard restricting some anti-religious speech (its full name: ''Combating Intolerance, Negative Stereotyping and Stigmatization of, and Discrimination, Incitement to Violence and Violence Against, Persons Based on Religion or Belief''). Egypt's U.N. ambassador heralded the resolution as exposing the ''true nature'' of free speech and recognizing that ''freedom of expression has been sometimes misused'' to insult religion."/>

			<outline text="At a Washington conference last yearto implement the resolution, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton declared that it would protect both ''the right to practice one's religion freely and the right to express one's opinion without fear.'' But it isn't clear how speech can be protected if the yardstick is how people react to speech '-- particularly in countries where people riot over a single cartoon. Clinton suggested that free speech resulting in ''sectarian clashes'' or ''the destruction or the defacement or the vandalization of religious sites'' was not, as she put it, ''fair game.''"/>

			<outline text="Given this initiative, President Obama's U.N. address last month declaring America's support for free speech, while laudable, seemed confused '-- even at odds with his administration's efforts."/>

			<outline text="Speech is hateful"/>

			<outline text="In the United States, hate speech is presumably protected under the First Amendment. However, hate-crime laws often redefine hateful expression as a criminal act. Thus, in 2003, the Supreme Court addressed the conviction of a Virginia Ku Klux Klan member who burned a cross on private land. The court allowed for criminal penalties so long as the government could show that the act was ''intended to intimidate'' others. It was a distinction without meaning, since the state can simply cite the intimidating history of that symbol."/>

			<outline text="Other Western nations routinely bar forms of speech considered hateful. Britain prohibits any ''abusive or insulting words'' meant ''to stir up racial hatred.'' Canada outlaws ''any writing, sign or visible representation'' that ''incites hatred against any identifiable group.'' These laws ban speech based not only on its content but on the reaction of others. Speakers are often called to answer for their divisive or insulting speech before bodies like the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal."/>

			<outline text="This month, a Canadian court ruled that Marc Lemire, the webmaster of a far-right political site, could be punished for allowing third parties to leave insulting comments about homosexuals and blacks on the site. Echoing the logic behind blasphemy laws, Federal Court Justice Richard Mosley ruled that ''the minimal harm caused .'&amp;#137;.'&amp;#137;. to freedom of expression is far outweighed by the benefit it provides to vulnerable groups and to the promotion of equality.''"/>

			<outline text="Speech is discriminatory"/>

			<outline text="Perhaps the most rapidly expanding limitation on speech is found in anti-discrimination laws. Many Western countries have extended such laws to public statements deemed insulting or derogatory to any group, race or gender."/>

			<outline text="For example, in a closely watched case last year, a French court found fashion designer John Gallianoguilty of making discriminatory comments in a Paris bar, where he got into a cursing match with a couple using sexist and anti-Semitic terms. Judge Anne-Marie Sauteraud read a list of the bad words Galliano had used, adding that she found (rather implausibly) he had said ''dirty whore'' at least 1,000 times. Though he faced up to six months in jail, he was fined."/>

			<outline text="In Canada, comedian Guy Earle was charged with violating the human rights of a lesbian couple after he got into a trash-talking session with a group of women during an open-mike night at a nightclub. Lorna Pardysaid she suffered post-traumatic stress because of Earle's profane language and derogatory terms for lesbians. The British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal ruled last year that since this was a matter of discrimination, free speech was not a defense, and awarded about $23,000 to the couple."/>

			<outline text="Ironically, while some religious organizations are pushing blasphemy laws, religious individuals are increasingly targeted under anti-discrimination laws for their criticism of homosexuals and other groups. In 2008, a minister in Canada was not only forced to pay fines for uttering anti-gay sentiments but was also enjoined from expressing such views in the future."/>

			<outline text="Speech is deceitful"/>

			<outline text="In the United States, where speech is given the most protection among Western countries, there has been a recent effort to carve out a potentially large category to which the First Amendment would not apply. While we have always prosecuted people who lie to achieve financial or other benefits, some argue that the government can outlaw any lie, regardless of whether the liar secured any economic gain."/>

			<outline text="One such law was the Stolen Valor Act, signed by President George W. Bush in 2006, which made it a crime for people to lie about receiving military honors. The Supreme Court struck it down this year, but at least two liberal justices, Stephen Breyer and Elena Kagan, proposed that such laws should have less of a burden to be upheld as constitutional. The House responded with new legislation that would criminalize lies told with the intent to obtain any undefined ''tangible benefit.''"/>

			<outline text="The dangers are obvious. Government officials have long labeled whistleblowers, reporters and critics as ''liars'' who distort their actions or words. If the government can define what is a lie, it can define what is the truth."/>

			<outline text="For example, in Februarythe French Supreme Court declared unconstitutional a law that made it a crime to deny the 1915 Armenian genocide by Turkey '-- a characterization that Turkey steadfastly rejects. Despite the ruling, various French leaders pledged to pass new measures punishing those who deny the Armenians' historical claims."/>

			<outline text="The impact of government limits on speech has been magnified by even greater forms of private censorship. For example, most news organizations have stopped showing images of Muhammad, though they seem to have no misgivings about caricatures of other religious figures. The most extreme such example was supplied by Yale University Press, which in 2009 published a book about the Danish cartoons titled ''The Cartoons That Shook the World'' '-- but cut all of the cartoons so as not to insult anyone."/>

			<outline text="The very right that laid the foundation for Western civilization is increasingly viewed as a nuisance, if not a threat. Whether speech is deemed imflammatory or hateful or discriminatory or simply false, society is denying speech rights in the name of tolerance, enforcing mutual respect through categorical censorship."/>

			<outline text="As in a troubled marriage, the West seems to be falling out of love with free speech. Unable to divorce ourselves from this defining right, we take refuge instead in an awkward and forced silence."/>

			<outline text="The BBC director general is expected to appear in front of MPs next week to take questions on the Jimmy Savile sex abuse scandal and the circumstances surrounding a decision by the editor of Newsnight to drop an investigation into the late BBC presenter towards the end of last year."/>

			<outline text="George Entwistle has offered to appear in front of the culture, media and sport select committee next week, its chairman, John Whittingdale, told the House of Commons after an urgent question was raised about the Savile scandal. Whittingdale added that the committee would make time to accommodate the BBC boss's request."/>

			<outline text="Maria Miller, the culture secretary, who opened the debate, said the Savile allegations were horrifying and said that she had spoken to Entwistle last Friday about the steps the broadcaster was taking. &quot;From these conversations,&quot; Miller said, &quot;I am confident that the BBC and the [BBC] Trust are taking the allegations very seriously indeed.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="She went on to list the independent inquiries already announced by Entwistle live on television on Friday and raised eyebrows when she said that one of those inquiries would look at the circumstances surrounding the &quot;inappropriately pulled&quot; Newsnight investigation into Savile."/>

			<outline text="Winding up her opening statement, Miller added that these were &quot;undoubtedly very serious matters which have wide ranging implications for a number of public institutions not just the BBC&quot;. But she rejected concerns raised by Conservative MP Rob Wilson that there should be a wider inquiry, independent of the BBC, into the affair, saying that there was &quot;a police investigation going on&quot; and that it was important that &quot;that investigation can go on unfettered&quot;."/>

			<outline text="Miller also dismissed calls for the Leveson inquiry into press practices to be extended to investigate the Savile scandal. &quot;Extending the scope of Leveson at the moment would result in a delay which I don't think anybody would like to see on that particular inquiry,&quot; she said."/>

			<outline text="Shortly afterwards the Department of Culture, Media and Sport clarified remarks Miller made in the Commons statement about the Newsnight investigation into Savile being &quot;inappropriately pulled&quot;, saying she was not reflecting her own belief as to what happened regarding the film. A spokesperson said that the first part of her sentence demonstrated that she was referring to allegations that the film was dropped for corporate reasons."/>

			<outline text="Miller said in her statement that the first of the BBC's inquiries &quot;will look particularly at the allegations with regards to the item on Savile, which was inappropriately pulled from Newsnight&quot;."/>

			<outline text="The department then released the text Miller actually intended to read out, demonstrating that she had slipped up slightly in the delivery. Miller was supposed to say: &quot;The first review [by the BBC] will look into the allegations that an item on Savile was inappropriately pulled from Newsnight.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="It said in a statement: &quot;The secretary of state has not prejudged the outcome of the BBC's investigation into the pulling of a Newsnight item on Savile.  As the secretary of state made clear in the house, it is for the BBC, not ministers, to investigate these allegations.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Vaclav Klaus points out Europe is not yet at the end of its journey. Thede-democratization process goes on. The acronyms change further, together withthe incoming stages of the unification process: EEC '' EC '' EU '' EMU '' EFU '' EPU.We are now approaching the last but one stage, the European Fiscal Union, whichlooks for some people like a useful solution to the recent collapse of theprevious stage, of the European Monetary Union. And there are further dreams onthe side of the global governance adherents in Europe about moving towards thefinal stage '' the full-fledged European Political Union which will undoubtedlybecome the global governance paradise.Maros Sefcovic points out that making sure that Europe has the necessary meansto invest in its political priorities is vital. But the crisis has also shownthat unless we change the way we do things we will simply be throwing good moneyafter bad. We've already taken decisive action to comprehensively overhaul theeconomic governance of the EU, to ensure that excessive deficits, imbalances andirresponsible budgetary decisions in one Member State can never again poison allthe others. But we still need to go further."/>

			<outline text="Fourth Reich was not initiated on March 25, 1957 in Rome, but on August 10, 1944in Strasbourg! Fourth Reich originates from the Red House Report, a detailedaccount of a secret meeting at the Maison Rouge Hotel in Strasbourg, a couple ofblocks from today's Eldorado of Prostitutes (EP), on August 10, 1944. There,Nazi officials instructed an elite group of German industrialists to plan forGermany's post-war recovery, prepare for the Nazis' return to power, and workfor a strong Fourth Reich."/>

			<outline text="The three-page, closely typed report, marked Secret, copied by British spies andsent to the US Secretary of State, detailed how the industrialists were to workwith the Nazi Party to rebuild Germany's economy by sending money throughSwitzerland. They would set up a network of secret front companies abroad, waituntil conditions were right, and then grab power with various hoodwinkingtreaties."/>

			<outline text="There is a clear understanding that the economic wellbeing of the entire EU ''not just the euro area '' is interconnected, and that is why we need a strongerand more binding economic governance framework for economic and monetary union.Sefcovic notes the banking union is one of the key pillars on which we can builddeeper EMU, and the European Commission (EC) on the 12 of September adoptedlegislative proposal for a single supervisory mechanism (SSM) based on theconferral of specific supervisory tasks to the ECB."/>

			<outline text="Vaclav Klaus asserts the main problem of Fourth Reich is the European economicand social system that doesn't allow for a rapid economic growth. The EuropeanSoziale Marktwirtschaft prefers social policy based on income redistribution toproductive work. It prefers free-time and long holidays to hard work. It prefersconsumption to investments, debts to savings, security to risk-taking."/>

			<outline text="All of it is part of a broader civilizational and cultural problem, deeplyrooted in the European continent or in most of its countries. It can't beexterminated overnight, it can't be changed as a result of one or another EUsummit, it can't be changed by painless cosmetic changes. It requires a deepsystemic change, something structurally similar to the task East Europe had toaccomplish at the fall of communism."/>

			<outline text="Sefcovic is convinced that moving supervision of banks to the European level, aswell as the envisaged further steps towards establishing a fully-fledged bankingunion, are indispensable measures to ensure the stability of the integratedEuropean economy, to break the negative feedback loop between governments andbanks and to help preserve the internal market."/>

			<outline text="That's why Sefcovic believes that while the SSM should apply to all euro-areaMember States, for which it is essential, it should also be open to theparticipation of any other Member States that wish to embark on a path of deeperintegration."/>

			<outline text="You remember this quip from former Obama Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel during thefinancial crisis: You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. What mattersto statists is that they see an opportunity in a pseudocrisis to shape publicperception and manipulate public opinion. The financial crisis yielded agovernment takeover of the financial sector. The healthcare pseudocrisis yieldeda government takeover of the healthcare system. What do you thinkEurokleptocrats are going to do with the crisis of PIGS? They'd be happy totransform the confederation of Fourth Reich to a federation. You should takethe blood libel seriously."/>

			<outline text="Sefcovic says that establishing a single supervisory mechanism within the singlemarket is an important first step, but we will also need to progress quickly onthe remaining building blocks for a genuine EMU. This will include not only theremaining pillars of the banking union but also a fiscal union, economic unionand a strengthened democratic dimension of the EMU. The Commission will set outits views on how to progress later this year."/>

			<outline text="The second element of a deeper economic union is the move towards a fiscalunion. We need a stronger and more binding framework for nationaldecision-making for key economic policies, as the only way to manageinterdependence and prevent imbalances."/>

			<outline text="Fourthreichian fiscal union is the Trojan horse for overall harmonization ofeconomic rules, policies, and laws in Fourth Reich. Any eurozone problem isinterpreted as a consequence of the lack of harmonization and leads to anotherwave of a creeping harmonization. Fuehrer Merkollande frequently declares thatcoordinating tax policies and labor laws is not just about currency issues butalso about political cooperation, which has to be deepened. In other words,more enslavement to Brussels, transforming the confederation to a federation!"/>

			<outline text="Sefcovic points out the Commission has put forward proposals to tackle theoutstanding obstacles in the internal market; Sefcovic has also presentedproposals for a modern industrial policy strategy, which will be followed by anAction plan to contribute to a more entrepreneurial Europe; and before the endof the year, EC will launch a Youth package that will establish a youthguarantee scheme and equality framework to facilitate vocational training."/>

			<outline text="EC has also been working hard to fully mobilise the EU structural funds and findother ways to keep up growth-enhancing investments in Europe, such as exploringwith the European Investment Bank how to better provide finance to SMEs, as wellas developing a new European Venture Capital regime."/>

			<outline text="Sefcovic notes banking, fiscal and economic union is again only part of thepicture: for Europe to truly emerge stronger than ever from this crisis we mustbite the bullet of further institutional and political integration. As PresidentBarroso put it in his State of the Union speech in Strasbourg last month, weneed to move towards a federation of nation states. No way Jose!"/>

			<outline text="What exactly does that mean? Well, one definition might, indeed, be 'moreEurope' '' a deeper integration, cooperation and coordination that recognises andrespects the national sovereignties and identities of the Member States."/>

			<outline text="There are events in history known as false flag events. These are staged by agovernment usually to distress the public, so the government can do somethingthat the public would otherwise disapprove. The name is derived from themilitary concept of flying false colors; that is flying the flag of a countryother than one's own. Lyndon Johnson's phony Gulf of Tonkin pseudoevent startedthe Viet Nam War in 1964. This was deemed necessary to begin a full scale warwith public approval and is now well documented as a false flag event. It neverhappened. Now PIGS are the false flag to transform the confederation of FourthReich to a federation."/>

			<outline text="The Kickstarter project video makes a crucial first impression. Creators introduce themselves and their dreams, sum up their plans, and ask for a little love. But as new projects continue to push the boundaries of what's possible on Kickstarter, the videos feel more and more like their own virtual film festival. Hitting that play button never felt so good."/>

			<outline text="Each week, we experience hundreds of new videos '-- way too many to keep to ourselves. Feast on five recent favorites that we've been passing around the office and let us know what catches your eye this week."/>

			<outline text="1. The Claytheist"/>

			<outline text="The Claytheist is a &quot;conceptual experiment in stop-motion animation&quot; wherein two puppets engage in an escalating argument over the origin of their existence. The creators' project video combines a rapid-fire narrative reminiscent of some 1920s radio hour with claymation mad scientists, hallucinatory visual effects, and some seriously impressive suspenders. "/>

			<outline text="2. These Treats Don't Suck: A Gluten-Free Cookbook"/>

			<outline text="...And neither does their hilariously tongue-in-cheek project video, which poses the existential question of the ages: &quot;What is gluten free?&quot;"/>

			<outline text="3. The Goon"/>

			<outline text="On the shortlist of reasons why we love this one: killer robots, suspicious hooch, bad guys, zombies, slow-motion flying cars on fire. And David Fincher. Hit play... or else."/>

			<outline text="4. Dale Radio: Spending Time With..."/>

			<outline text="Nothing beats a pitch video performed completely in character. In his podcast, &quot;Dale&quot; is a lovably crass, middle-aged weird uncle type. In his project video, he cements the rep with a killer tie, some tinted aviators, and a couple packs of Twizzlers. Now that's balling on a budget. "/>

			<outline text="5. King of Crime"/>

			<outline text="Speaking of staying in character, what about character and genre? The crew behind this noir-inspired card game, King of Crime, never breaks form in a pitch that doubles as a ransom video. We're guessing they'll let Smith go... if they reach their goal."/>

			<outline text="It's Comic Con weekend! That's right, Comic Con has once again descended upon the Big Apple and for the first time Kickstarter has an official presence at the illustrious nerd convention. If you plan on popping by the Javits Center this weekend, be sure to head to the Kickstarter booth in Artist Alley, where a host of comics creators will be sharing their work all weekend. Oh, and you can pick up one of these rad sketchbooks to start sketching your new comic. Boom! "/>

			<outline text="While your at NYCC be sure to check out Masaaki Yuasa's Kick-Heart project, which will be participating in a panel tonight at 5:15pm in room 1A23. In the meantime, or if you can't make it to Comic Con, head over to Masaaki's new Tumblr for Kick-Heart, where the team has been busy posting concept drawings and amazing animated gifs from the production process. "/>

			<outline text="In other animated news, an exciting project emerged this morning from David Fincher, director of such films as Se7en, The Social Network and Fight Club. The Goon, a new animated film based on the popular comics, stars Paul Giamatti as Franky and Clancy Brown as the titular Goon. Another example of inspiring talents stepping outside the traditional studio system to make a film the way they want to make it. "/>

			<outline text="Lastly, it's an honor to note that two Kickstarter-funded films, Kings Point and Inocente, were named to the Oscar-shortlist for Best Documentary Short, a major milestone for these filmmakers. We've got our fingers crossed that these short-listed docs will be nominated this January. Keep an eye on them!"/>

			<outline text="NICK WINGFIELD 10/15/12 NY Times"/>

			<outline text="SEATTLE '-- Music fans have often viewed Microsoft as something like a bad cover band, one that pumped out uninviting facsimiles of Apple's iPod and iTunes with its Zune music players and service."/>

			<outline text="Now that the Zune brand is dead, Microsoft is once again in search of a hit in digital music. But this time, to improve its odds of success, it is marshaling some of its most powerful brands as never before: Windows and the Xbox."/>

			<outline text="On Monday, the company plans to announce a service called Xbox Music that will offer access to a global catalog of about 30 million songs. The service will let consumers listen free to any song on computers and tablets running the latest version of its Windows software, as well as on the Xbox console. Microsoft will not initially limit how much music can be streamed, though that could change over time."/>

			<outline text="The service is part of a broad set of bets Microsoft is making this fall to help regain ground it has lost to competitors, especially Apple and Google. In addition to Windows 8, a major new version of its flagship operating system that will start shipping Oct. 26, the company is close to releasing a new version of its Windows Phone operating system for mobile phones and its first Microsoft-designed computer, a tablet device called Surface."/>

			<outline text="In an aggressive push to persuade lots of people to use the service, Microsoft will package the software for Xbox Music with Windows 8. The arrangement could awaken antitrust concerns about Microsoft's use of Windows to gain toeholds in new markets."/>

			<outline text="Microsoft's do-over in the market is a sign of how a strong music service has come to be seen as a prerequisite for any serious player in the gadget business. Apple first showed the way with that strategy by making it simple to buy songs from the iTunes Store, helping it sell more iPods. Google and Amazon have also gotten in on the act, adding music stores to their Android and Kindle devices."/>

			<outline text="In addition to competing with those big companies, Xbox Music is entering a landscape thick with independent music services that offer their own variations on the listening experience. Spotify, for example, provides on-demand listening to a large library of music, while Pandora programs radio stations tailored to its listeners' individual tastes."/>

			<outline text="Scott Porter, principal program manager for Xbox Music, said many music fans today relied on a variety of services like those, along with more traditional sellers of songs like iTunes, to satisfy all their musical needs. This approach, though, can be tedious."/>

			<outline text="''The dilemma is that music has become work,'' he said. ''Our vision for Xbox Music is that it shouldn't have to be work.''"/>

			<outline text="Xbox Music incorporates elements of all of those services. There is an option to buy songs, so a music fan can own them permanently with minimal restrictions. There are Pandora-like radio stations built around songs and similar-sounding music."/>

			<outline text="And there is an option akin to Spotify that lets users listen free to any music from their computer, though they will get audio and visual advertisements. (Some major bands, like the Beatles, are missing from the catalog.) Like Spotify, Xbox Music offers a $10-a-month ad-free service that includes many other features, like the ability to listen to music on smartphones and the Xbox 360 game console."/>

			<outline text="While finding music on other services can sometimes feel like studying a glorified spreadsheet, Xbox Music is much richer visually, with artist photos that can be flipped through quickly."/>

			<outline text="Analysts say the success of Xbox Music will depend on far more than whether the service itself is any good, since the strategy is to have it enhance the appeal of Microsoft-powered gadgets that have much broader functions. ''This is not going to matter if no one wants the devices,'' said Richard Greenfield, an analyst at BTIG Research. ''You need to have a killer device.''"/>

			<outline text="That will be tricky on phones. The first smartphones on which the service will be available are those running a new version of Microsoft's mobile operating system, Windows Phone, which has struggled to gain traction."/>

			<outline text="Microsoft has a far stronger position in the living room with the Xbox, having sold more than 67 million consoles to date. Don Mattrick, president of the Microsoft division that oversees the product, has made it a priority to transform the Xbox from a game device into an all-purpose hub for video and other forms of entertainment. Xbox Music will first appear on that device when Microsoft begins updating its software over the Internet starting on Tuesday."/>

			<outline text="In a departure for a company that generally favors devices run by its own software, Microsoft will release versions of the Xbox Music service that run on Google's Android and Apple's iOS devices next year, Mr. Porter said."/>

			<outline text="One factor working against Microsoft is its dismal track record in music. Its Zune players sold poorly, and the company eventually stopped making them. After that it focused on making its Zune music service work on its mobile phone software, without much success."/>

			<outline text="Xbox Music could get its biggest lift from Windows 8, a product Microsoft has redesigned completely to take advantage of touch-screen devices. Early reviews of the new operating system have been mixed. Microsoft urgently needs Windows 8 to help it respond to the blockbuster success of the iPad and to inject some energy into a PC market that is in an awful slump."/>

			<outline text="While the PC market does not generate the excitement it once did, people still buy hundreds of millions of computers every year, the vast majority of which run Windows. Mark Mulligan, an independent music analyst in Britain, said Microsoft's bundling of Xbox Music into its ubiquitous operating system could be a way to push digital music services further into the mainstream."/>

			<outline text="Mr. Mulligan wondered whether that bundling would attract the interest of regulators, especially in Europe, where Microsoft has tangled with antitrust enforcers for a decade. ''I assume they've done their due diligence,'' he said."/>

			<outline text="Still, Microsoft's behavior does not appear to be all that different from that of Apple and Google, both of which include software for accessing their own music services in their mobile products."/>

			<outline text="''Customers expect devices in today's market to offer core experiences like music services,'' said Mr. Porter of Microsoft, adding that Windows users would be able to easily reach other music services through the app store."/>

			<outline text="OPINIE - Simon Wisselink '' 15/10/12, 15:00"/>

			<outline text="(C) Screenshot van de NPO mededeling op de site uitzendinggemist.."/>

			<outline text="opinieSinds deze week zijn de websites www.uitzendinggemist.nl en www.omroep.nl voorzien van een 'cookiemuur'. Om de websites te kunnen bekijken, moeten bezoekers cookies accepteren van bedrijven als Google, Facebook en Twitter. Wie dat niet wil, komt de websites niet op. 'De NPO ontzegt hiermee de burger het recht op vrije toegang tot de programma's van de publieke omroep', vindt Simon Wisselink van het bedrijf Kirra, een Nederlandse ontwikkelaar van websoftware."/>

			<outline text="Op 5 juni 2012 trad de aangepaste Telecommunicatiewet, beter bekend als de 'cookiewet', in werking. De wet is bedoeld om de privacy van burgers op internet beter te beschermen. Door deze wetswijziging is het niet meer toegestaan om zonder toestemming van een bezoeker cookies te plaatsen voor doeleinden zoals het tonen van advertenties of het verzamelen van gegevens over het surfgedrag. Adverteerders zijn met cookies in staat om profielen van bezoekers op te bouwen en daar bijvoorbeeld hun advertenties op aan te passen."/>

			<outline text="Toestemming krijgenAls een website toch cookies wil plaatsen, dan is daarvoor expliciete toestemming nodig. Veel websites, zoals www.wehkamp.nl en www.nu.nl, negeren (bewust of onbewust) deze toestemmingsvereiste en kiezen ervoor om de bezoeker alleen te informeren over het gebruik van cookies. Onder de nieuwe wet is dat niet voldoende."/>

			<outline text="Veel andere websites zoals www.debijenkorf.nl en www.klm.nl negeren de nieuwe wet (vooralsnog) volledig en plaatsen cookies zonder daar melding van te maken. De Rabobank maakt het helemaal bont: op www.rabobank.nl wordt keurig om toestemming gevraagd, maar er worden desalniettemin direct cookies geplaatst, en zelfs wanneer de bezoeker kiest voor 'Cookies niet toestaan' blijven de cookies gewoon actief."/>

			<outline text="CookiemuurPas na een brief van handhavingsinstantie OPTA kwam de NPO schoorvoetend in actie. Wie nu www.uitzendinggemist.nl of www.omroep.nl wil bezoeken, moet toestemming geven voor cookies. De NPO heeft gekozen voor een radicale methode door van bezoekers te eisen dat zij akkoord gaan met alle mogelijke cookies. Bezoekers die niet willen dat hun surfgedrag wordt gedeeld met partijen als Google, Facebook, Twitter en andere grote adverteerders, wordt toegang tot de website volledig ontzegd. Dit najaar wordt deze 'cookiemuur' geleidelijk voor alle websites van de publieke omroepen ingevoerd, zo stelt de NPO."/>

			<outline text="De door NPO gekozen aanpak is opmerkelijk. Het is gebruikelijk om bezoekers gewoon toe te laten tot de website en alleen toestemming te vragen voor het plaatsen van cookies voor speciale functies zoals het bekijken van Youtube video's of Google Maps-kaarten. De ervaring van de afgelopen maanden leert dat slechts een klein deel van de bezoekers in dat geval toestemming geeft. Als het overgrote deel van de bezoekers aangeeft dat zij niet op cookies zitten te wachten, ligt het dan niet voor de hand om cookies waar mogelijk te vermijden?"/>

			<outline text="Publieke middelenOmdat de NPO vanuit belastinggeld wordt gefinancierd, mogen bezoekers verwachten dat zij de websites kunnen bezoeken zonder onnodige privacybezwaren. De omroep geeft op hun website aan niet anders te kunnen, omdat zij verplicht is om statistieken over haar bezoekers te rapporteren aan het ministerie van Onderwijs, Cultuur en Wetenschap. Dit is echter geen bezwaar. Het is uitstekend mogelijk om statistieken over het gebruik van een website te verzamelen, zonder dat daarvoor individuele bezoekers gevolgd hoeven te worden met cookies. In de prestatie-afspraken die zijn gemaakt tussen het ministerie en de NPO wordt abstract gesproken over het meten van 'bereik', maar er zijn verschillende manieren om dat te doen. Het gebruik van cookies is daarvoor niet essentieel. Bovendien wordt in de afspraken tussen het ministerie en de NPO expliciet ruimte gelaten voor een aanpassing van de gerapporteerde gegevens wanneer verandering van regelgeving daartoe aanleiding zou geven."/>

			<outline text="VoorbeeldfunctieDe NPO is de eerste grote overheidsorganisatie die voor deze radicale oplossing kiest, en geeft daarmee een signaal af naar andere overheidsinstellingen en het bedrijfsleven. Als de aanpak van de omroep navolging krijgt, dan zal een groot deel van de Nederlandse websites binnenkort verdwijnen achter een cookiemuur. Het was de bedoeling van de wetgever om de privacy van bezoekers van websites beter te beschermen, maar de oplossing van de NPO leidt ertoe dat bezoekers hun privacy juist moeten opgeven om websites te kunnen bekijken. Hierdoor worden bezoekers in feite gechanteerd om hun privacy op te geven en wordt de wet een wassen neus."/>

			<outline text="Simon Wisselink (@simonwisselink) is hoofd Research &amp;amp; Development van Kirra. Kirra is een Nederlandse ontwikkelaar van websoftware, gevestigd in Groningen. Kirra heeft sinds de introductie van de cookiewet haar statistiekenpakket Kirra Analytics aangepast om zonder cookies te werken. Kirra Analytics is daarmee in staat om statistieken over het gebruik van websites te verzamelen, zonder individuele bezoekers te volgen. Website: www.kirra.nl."/>

			<outline text="Heeej. Dit is raar. Op dit filmpje van de NOS is vlak nadat Felix Baumgartner van 39 kilometer hoogte zijn eeuwige eindbazenschap tegemoet sprong een MYSTERIEUZE SCHREEUW (klinkt als: 'waaaaaahaaaaa') te horen. Goed luisteren. Op 00:05 seconden. Wij zaten net als 9 miljoen andere kijkers aan de YouTube-stream gekluisterd en een ding is zeker: die schreeuw was niet live te horen. Heeft er nou werkelijk iemand van de NOS stiekem in de montage die brul er onder zitten knippen en plakken? WTF was die denkende? De NOS heeft er een handje van om bij historische gebeurtenissen de audio een beetje mooier te knutselen. Tijdens een speech van koningin Beatrix werd ooit het slotapplaus een stukje verlengd. Gewoon. Omdat het mooier klonk. Opperbaas Marcel Gelauff ging daarvoor destijds diep door het stof. Terug naar de Baumgartner-jump. In een twittergesprekje met @jeffreyvmaurik (die als een van de eerste 'de schreeuw' ontdekte) ontkent NOS-redactienerd @Elger dat er bewust spannende extra audio onder de beelden is gezet. Zijn verweer: &quot;Het zat live in de feed die gisteren ook is gebruikt in Achtuurjournaal. Hier terug te kijken&quot;. Verdomd zeg. Op 03:03 horen we inderdaad exact dezelfde 'waaaaaahaaaaa'. Maar nogmaals: die hoorden we niet gisteren op de livestream. Hoe is het mogelijk dat de NOS als enige nieuwsstation ter wereld Baumgartnerbeelden heeft waarop een schreeuw te horen was? Doen we even een rondje langs overige internationale newschannels: BBC: geen schreeuw te horen. CNN: idem dito. Het officile Red Bull kanaal: nog niet eens een lullig gilletje. Dat is dus allemaal heel erg opmerkelijk. Weet u wat ook bizar is? Op de beelden van RTL Nieuws is vlak na de jump een andere schreeuw te horen (klinkt meer als 'wooaaaahaaaaa') uit het publiek. Hiero te horen op 03:00. Schiet ons maar lek. Wij vertrouwen de oude media (die dit geniale live-event op internet toch al hebben onderschat) niet meer. Straks is dit zeker ook nep...UPDATE: Reactie @elger: &quot;In ruimte waar stream wordt opgepikt stond een microfoon open en een collega was was enthousiast...&quot;"/>

Gezien de enorme marketingbudgetten die er door fabrikanten tegenaan worden gegooid om hun producten op de markt te zetten, ligt hier een enorme kans. Zullen zaken als wetenschap en cultuur in de toekomst gefinancierd kunnen worden met marketinggelden? Op zich is het idee niet zo gek. De bedragen die bedrijven uitgeven aan marketing en reclame zijn enorm. Zo geeft Nike per jaar gemiddeld zo'n 2 miljard dollar uit aan marketing in diverse vormen. [1] Bij zaken als frisdranken of andere fast-moving consumer goods is het effect van marketing ook enorm. Er is, anders dan fabrikanten je willen doen geloven, maar weinig verschil tussen dranken als Coca Cola en merkloze cola. Of tussen Spa Rood en water uit de kraan.

Om deze reden doen marketeers graag een beroep op 'wetenschappelijke' onderbouwing van hun beweringen over het product dat ze verkopen. Toch kan het ook anders. Bekend zijn bijvoorbeeld de door documentairezenders als Discovery Channel of NGC gesponsorde expedities naar bijvoorbeeld de Titanic. Hier wordt wetenschap bedreven terwijl het de zenders veel free publicity verschaft.

			<outline text="Another alleged victim of Jimmy Savile has claimed he was abused as a nine-year-old cub scout - one of the youngest people believed to have been targeted by the presenter.Kevin Cook, 45, told The Sun that Savile touched him inappropriately during filming for a Jim'll Fix It TV show in 1976. Mr Cook claimed that after he was assaulted by Savile, he was warned to keep quiet.He told the newspaper: &quot;He (Savile) became really scary and said 'Don't you dare tell anyone. Don't even tell your mates. We know where you live' ... Nobody would believe you anyway - I'm King Jimmy'.&quot;Mr Cook, who lives in Essex with his wife and children, added: &quot;For ages I felt like it was my fault. I felt guilty.&quot;The stuff in the papers brought all the old feelings back. My wife knew something was wrong so in the end I told her.&quot;Mr Cook is one of several alleged male victims of Savile, who died aged 84 last October, to have come forward.Among them is a man who said he was abused at the age of 10 at the Haut de la Garenne children's home in Jersey.Another man from Redcar said when he was nine he was fondled by Savile in the star's Rolls-Royce.The latest allegation comes as Culture Secretary Maria Miller will be asked by a Tory MP to say if the Government plans to launch an independent inquiry into the scandal.Rob Wilson will also call for answers about why the BBC dropped a major Newsnight investigation into Savile and went ahead with a tribute programme after his death.One of the hospitals where Savile allegedly abused patients was Broadmoor, where Scotland Yard detectives are due to visit to gather new evidence about the claims.The Department of Health (DoH) is to investigate how he was appointed in 1988 to lead a &quot;taskforce&quot; overseeing a restructuring of the hospital's management.Sky's Tom Parmenter, reporting from outside Broadmoor, said: &quot;The big question is just how did Jimmy Savile seem to have the run of the place. He had his own living quarters, and his own keys to certain sections of the hospital.&quot;Meanwhile, Savile's ex-boss said he questioned the DJ over rumours about his private life more than 20 years ago.Metropolitan Police officers say the claims against the late TV presenter span six decades - between 1959 and 2006 - and they are pursuing 340 lines of enquiry.So far, 12 allegations of sexual offences have been officially recorded, but the police said there could be 60 victims.Derek Chinnery, who was BBC Radio 1 controller from 1978 to 1985, admitted he asked Savile directly about his suspected abuse.Savile worked at the station from 1969 to 1989, presenting a show of chart songs from previous decades.Mr Chinnery said: &quot;I asked (Savile) 'what's all this, these rumours we hear about you Jimmy?' And he said 'that's all nonsense'. There was no reason to disbelieve (Savile).&quot;The scandal surrounding the former Top Of The Pops presenter has mushroomed since ITV screened a documentary in which five women alleged they were abused by the celebrity.Met Police detectives are in contact with 14 other forces as the number of allegations against the former DJ continues to rise.HOREHOUND adds -  MP's now trying to deflect all the blame / attention squarely at the door of the beeb, they should be asking who gave Savile the keys to Broadmoor.COMMENTER recommends -"/>

			<outline text="Mon, 15 Oct 2012 16:31"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="A six-year study of Britain's drug laws by leading scientists, police officers, academics and experts has concluded it is time to introduce decriminalisation."/>

			<outline text="The report by the UK Drug Policy Commission (UKDPC), an independent advisory body, says possession of small amounts of controlled drugs should no longer be a criminal offence and concludes the move will not lead to a significant increase in use."/>

			<outline text="The experts say the criminal sanctions imposed on the 42,000 people sentenced each year for possession of all drugs '' and the 160,000 given cannabis warnings '' should be replaced with simple civil penalties such as a fine, attendance at a drug awareness session or a referral to a drug treatment programme."/>

			<outline text="They also say that imposing minimal or no sanctions on those growing cannabis for personal use could go some way to undermining the burgeoning illicit cannabis factories controlled by organised crime."/>

			<outline text="But their report rejects any more radical move to legalisation, saying that allowing the legal sale of drugs such as heroin or cocaine could cause more damage than the existing drugs trade."/>

			<outline text="The commission is chaired by Dame Ruth Runciman with a membership that includes the former head of the British Medical Research Council, Prof Colin Blakemore, and the former chief inspector of constabulary, David Blakey."/>

			<outline text="The report says their analysis of the evidence shows that existing drugs policies struggle to make an impact and, in some cases, may make the problem worse."/>

			<outline text="The work of the commission is the first major independent report on drugs policy since the influential Police Foundation report 12 years ago called for an end to the jailing of those possessing cannabis."/>

			<outline text="The UKDPC's membership also includes Prof John Strang, head of the National Addictions Centre, Prof Alan Maynard, a specialist in health economics, and Lady Ilora Finlay, a past president of the Royal Society of Medicine."/>

			<outline text="The report says that although levels of illicit drug use in Britain have declined in recent years, they are still much higher than in many other countries. The UK has 2,000 drug-related deaths each year and more than 380,000 problem drug users."/>

			<outline text="The 173-page report concludes: &quot;Taking drugs does not always cause problems, but this is rarely acknowledged by policymakers. In fact most users do not experience significant problems, and there is some evidence that drug use can have benefits in some circumstances.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="The commission's radical critique says the current UK approach is simplistic in seeing all drug use as problematic, fails to recognise that entrenched drug problems are linked to inequality and social exclusion, and that separating drugs from alcohol and tobacco use makes it more difficult to tackle the full range of an individual's substance use."/>

			<outline text="It says the &amp;#163;3bn a year spent tackling illegal drugs is not based on any evidence of what works, with much of the money wasted on policies that are not cost-effective."/>

			<outline text="It argues that even large-scale seizures by the police often have little or no sustained impact on the supply of drugs; that Just Say No campaigns in schools sometimes actually lead to more young people using drugs; and that pushing some users to become abstinent too quickly can lead to a greater chance of relapse or overdose and death."/>

			<outline text="The commission argues a fresh approach based on the available evidence should be tested. Its main proposals include:"/>

			<outline text="''&amp;#175;Changing drug laws so that possession of small amounts of drugs for personal use would be a civil rather than criminal offence. This would start with cannabis and, if an evaluation showed no substantial negative impacts, move on to other drugs. The experience of Portugal and the Czech Republic shows that drug use would not increase and resources can be directed to treating addiction and tackling organised crime."/>

			<outline text="''&amp;#175;Reviewing sentencing practice so that those caught growing below a specified low volume of cannabis plants faced no, or only minimal, sanctions. But the production and supply of most drugs should remain illegal."/>

			<outline text="''&amp;#175;Reviewing the level of penalties applied against those involved in production and supply, as there is little evidence to show that the clear upward drift in the length of prison sentences in recent years has proved a deterrent or had any long-term impact on drug supply in Britain."/>

			<outline text="''&amp;#175;Reviewing the 1971 Misuse of Drugs Act so that technical decisions about the classification of individual drugs are no longer taken by the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) or politicians but instead by an independent body with parliamentary oversight."/>

			<outline text="''&amp;#175;Setting up a cross-party forum including the three main political party leaders to forge the political consensus needed to push through such a radical change in approach."/>

			<outline text="Blakemore said: &quot;Medicine has moved past the age when we treated disease on the basis of hunches and received wisdom. The overwhelming consensus now is that it is unethical, inefficient and dangerous to use untested and unvalidated methods of treatment and prevention. It is time that policy on illicit drug use starts taking evidence seriously as well.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Blakey, who is also a former president of the Association of Chief Police Officers (Acpo), said the current approach of police taking action against people using drugs was expensive and did not appear to bring much benefit. &quot;When other countries have reduced sanctions for low-level drug users, they have found it possible to keep a lid on drug use while helping people with drug problems to get into treatment,&quot; the former chief constable said. &quot;But at the same time, we need to continue to bear down on those producing and supplying illicit drugs. This is particularly important for those spreading misery in local communities.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Runciman said government programmes had done much to reduce the damage caused by the drug problem over the past 30 years, with needle exchanges reducing HIV among injecting drug users and treatment programmes which had helped many to rebuild their lives. The commission's chair said: &quot;Those programmes are supported by evidence, but much of the rest of drug policy does not have an adequate evidence base. We spend billions of pounds every year without being sure of what difference much of it makes.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="The home secretary, Theresa May, last month ruled out any moves towards decriminalisation, saying it would lead to further problems."/>

			<outline text="She told MPs she considered cannabis a gateway drug: &quot;People can die as a result of taking drugs, and significant mental health problems can arise as a result of taking drugs.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="For whatever reason, President Obama, has until now refused to sell."/>

			<outline text="It's a little late to teach him salesmanship, but maybe that's what they're doing in his debate prep before the second debate tomorrow at Hoftstra."/>

			<outline text="The pitch is pretty easy:"/>

			<outline text="1. If you elect me to a second term, ObamaCare will be deployed and finally after a hugely long struggle, the United States will have the beginnings of health reform. It's not nearly everything we need to do, that will be something for a future president to tackle. For now, I promise to implement it. And that's a promise I can keep even with an obstructionist opposition party with a majority in the House."/>

			<outline text="2. In my first term we wound down the war in Iraq, and we're winding down the war in Afghanistan. I get how weary we all are of war. My opponent, a nice man for sure, will imho get us into another war in the Middle East, with another crazy country, Iran -- and this one, like the other two, will be hard to get us out of. We're probably looking at another 10 or 20 years before all this war is over. Another war in the Middle East is not what we want. I think we can manage this one without sending Americans in to fight and without bombing Iran. I think we can work this politically and economically, with the cooperation of our allies and even our adversaries. No one outside of a few crazy countries wants to see Iran with nuclear weapons."/>

			<outline text="3. Reproductive choices will remain with the people whose lives and bodies it concerns. None of us like abortion, but we have different views on what the correct moral choice is. As long as there is no consensus, and believe me there is not, we must stay with things as they are. You have to listen carefully to my opponent's words on this one. He says he won't pass legislation. But he also says he like Supreme Court judges like the ones who are prepared to overturn Roe v Wade. That means it's pretty likely if you elect him, that there will be a very serious changes to abortion rights."/>

			<outline text="There you have three totally pragmatic reasons why you should re-elect the President. You may not like the way he looks, you may think (incorrectly) that he's a radical leftist. You may have heard (again incorrectly) that he was not born in the US. But if you think you might get sick, and if you're weary of war, and if you might ever have a family member with an unwanted pregnancy, you really have to vote for Obama."/>

			<outline text="PS: I am an independent, I voted for Obama in 2008 and will vote for him this year. I've given his campaign $400 so far. However, I have still voted Republican more times than Democrat. So if you have a response to this post, I would appreciate if you took all this into account, and don't respond as if you're on Fox News and I'm one of the &quot;liberals&quot; they talk about. Thanks."/>

			<outline text="     History is in a bad mood, as reflected in its acting troupe, the human race. What goes for the micro of an individual human personality also seems true for group. We have our bright moments, or years, and our darker ones and cycles within cycles of these and even sometimes bright and dark at the same moment.      I am reflecting this week on Stephen Greenblatt's book, The Swerve: How the World Became Modern, which concerns itself with the mood of Europe in the early 1400s, but in particular the career of one Poggio Bracciolini, a poor boy whose beautiful handwriting took him to the center of power as secretary-scribe to the first Pope John XXIII (deposed and de-Poped), and later as key agent to unlocking the lost secrets of classical antiquity. (Apologies if I have already lost you in this week's departure from my usual japery).     The depravity of the late medieval church hierarchy, and its sick grasp on the totality of everyday life a thousand years after the fall of Rome, is the outstanding feature of the period. What started out in Judea as a humble cult in thrall to the new idea of God-given grace, degenerated into a vile whoredom of concentrated wealth devoted to the routine infliction of cruelties. Poggio was especially struck by the fate of one radical reformer, Jerome of Prague, persecuted as a heretic. Jerome had made a career of inciting subversion in his wide travels around the universities of Europe, and was constantly in trouble with the church establishment.      Around 1415 Jerome ventured to the Council of Constance in Germany where cardinals, archbishops, and other church poobahs had gathered to resolve a vexing administrative problem: the schism that had one Pope in Avignon, France, and another in Rome, each answering to different kingdoms of Europe. In the course of things, Jerome the reformer made a pest of himself and was branded a heretic, thus nominating himself as a candidate for gruesome execution. Poggio witnessed Jerome's defense of his actions and beliefs before the council higher-ups, which were delivered in Latin with an eloquence not displayed since the days of Cicero. Jerome was eventually burned at the stake anyway, but the heroic power of his rhetoric made an impression on Poggio.      In the course of things at Constance, Poggio's patron, so-called &quot;anti-Pope&quot; John XXIII, a.k.a. Baldassarre Cossa, got kicked out of the club and Poggio was released from his duties to pursue his true life ambition, which was the rescue of forsaken manuscripts from the high culture of the Roman empire which lay moldering in the vaults and attics of monasteries all over the continent. He traveled far and wide in all weathers and seasons in a time when even the best roads were little more than mule tracks. The indifferent monks let him poke around their storerooms and in cases where he could not purchase a dusty scroll outright, he either pilfered them, or copied them out laboriously in his beautifully clear Carolingian handwriting.      In rescuing the works such as the complete orations of Cicero, the Epicurian discourse of Lucretius (De Rerum Natura - On the Nature of Things), as well as the practical dissertations of Vitruvius on architecture and Frontinus on the Roman aqueducts, he opened the door to the revival of human spirit that we call the Renaissance. If you look closely at the artifacts of the centuries pre-dating the Renaissance, you detect a long-running mood of severe psychological depression when the human race dwelt in abject hopelessness and poverty, with only the hocus-pocus of the church promising better times beyond the mystery of death as the Zoloft of the day. Poggio was not alone in his enthusiasm for the lost world of the ancients, and eventually the rediscovery of a realm of ideas beyond the drear preoccupations of a corrupt church turned on a light for humanity that has burned for five hundred years.     I mention these old and arcane matters because the mood of humanity lately seems to be darkening again, and to some large degree for understandable reasons. Between the melting of the polar icecaps, the destruction of all edible life in the oceans, and the vulgar spectacle of the paved-over American landscape with its clown monuments mocking all civilized endeavor, and a long list of other insults to healthy life on earth, there's a lot to be depressed about. We stand to lose a proportional amount of human capital accumulated over the past five hundred years as the benighted people of post-Roman Europe lost, and it may take us a thousand years or more to recover - if we recover at all.     It's especially disturbing to see the infiltration of the latest version of Jesus mumbo-jumbo - Southern Republican Nascar Evangelical orthodoxy - take over the collective mind of the USA. The poverty of ideas this represents can't be overstated and the timidity of any opposition to it is a disgrace to our heritage. Maybe that's an argument for electing a Mormon president, since that peculiar branch of the church is so self-evidently childish and ridiculous that it will probably do more to defeat religious fanaticism than all the humanist dissertations ever written - or a thousand clones of Madonna Ciccone dancing in stadiums under laser beams in titanium brassieres._______________________________James Howard Kunstler's newest nonfiction book, TOO MUCH MAGIC, will be available in stores in July 2012.

			<outline text="Preparing for Jay Rosen's class today, I, like all the students, had to read eight speeches given by news execs. "/>

			<outline text="It was a really depressing task. I guess that's the point. Unless I was required to read them, I would have given up on each long before the end. The story is just too sad, and the rationalizations too weak, and honestly, way too vain and self-centered. "/>

			<outline text="There was an interesting juxtaposition. Rupert Murdoch giving a mercifully short speech saying the biggest mistake someone in the news business could make is thinking the reader is stupid. He could easily have been introducing the next speaker, Bill Keller of the NY Times, who clearly thinks almost everyone who doesn't work at the NY Times is stupid. It seems he would exempt reporters at The Guardian, the LA Times and the Chicago Tribune. Probably the Boston Globe as well. Not sure who else he respects, but he certainly doesn't respect bloggers, or seem to understand that bloggers could have facts or perspectives that a Times reporter might cite (though, thankfully quite a few Times reporters seem to do that these days). "/>

			<outline text="For Jay's class, our assignment is to figure out how these guys are trying to adapt. "/>

			<outline text="Here's how I visualize how they're doing it. Imagine a box made of cardboard. It's big, but it's light. Pick the box up and move it from one place to another. When it gets to the new spot, it's still a big cardboard box. It still can contain the same stuff as the box did when it was in the old place. "/>

			<outline text="That's the transition each of these execs feel they have to make. The stuff in the box are news stories. The box is their editorial structure. The old place is print. The new place is the Internet. "/>

			<outline text="I, of course, don't think that's it. Not at all. "/>

			<outline text="Anyway, as I was reading these eight essays, my mind wandered -- and I wondered how each of these execs would explain Wikipedia. How is it that something that is very competitive with the product created by people more or less like them, was created by volunteers, people working for nothing? "/>

			<outline text="Because the fundamental thing each of the speakers has in common, the one possible mistake they're all making, the one variable they refuse to consider is the possibility that other people might do what they do, for no pay. "/>

			<outline text="Bill Keller said it most concisely. &quot;newspapers have at least two important assets that none of the digital newcomers even pretend to match. One is that we deploy worldwide a corps of trained, skilled reporters to witness events and help our readers understand them. This work is expensive, laborious, sometimes unpopular, and occasionally perilous.&quot; "/>

			<outline text="The key word in that paragraph is &quot;witness.&quot; "/>

			<outline text="They pay people to witness. "/>

			<outline text="These events they pay people to witness are witnessed by many more people who aren't being paid. Could at least a few of them relate what they witness? And isn't aggregating all these witness accounts what reporters actually do? The faulty assumption that bloggers would be helpless without reporters ignores the fact that reporters would be helpless without accounts of witnesses who are not reporters (and might even be bloggers). "/>

			<outline text="And of course, all this expensive witnessing is what they've been cutting. The Boston Globe used to have overseas offices, but was forced to close them to maintain their coverage of local news. They have also been using paid bloggers to cover many of the 200 towns in their area. Did it occur to them to simply start new publications in each of those towns, and let people do the witnessing on a voluntary basis? "/>

			<outline text="If you think it's not possible to have a quality result, then you have to explain why Wikipedia exists, and why a similar approach could not be used for news. This question kept coming up repeatedly as I read each of the speeches. "/>

			<outline text="The eight speeches: "/>

			<outline text="1. Tom Curley, President and CEO, The Associated Press, speech to the Online News Association Conference, Nov. 12, 2004 "/>

			<outline text="2. Rupert Murdoch, CEO of News Corp., speech to the American Society of Newspaper Editors, April 13, 2005 "/>

			<outline text="3. Bill Keller, Executive Editor of the New York Times, Hugo Young lecture, Chatham House, London, November 28, 2007 07.23 GMT "/>

			<outline text="Taxpayer-owned bank in dire straits as Santander deal collapses; more customers reveal fraud evidence.Bank contractor sources revealed over last weekend that Royal Bank of Scotland lobbyists are hammering hard on the Coalition's door with a view to getting draconian repossession laws passed. With fraud suits and gagging orders flying in every direction, Stephen Hester uttered the euphemism of the year by telling the media that the failure of the Santander retail purchases deal to complete was 'disappointing'. Yesterday, financial opinion leaders were aghast at the thought of RBS effectively having its systemic gangsterism legalised."/>

			<outline text="''If you won't entertain debt forgiveness,'' said the banking insider who contacted the Slog two days ago, ''then managing bad debt is actually an expensive and time consuming activity.'' Especially for the customer. The source continued:"/>

			<outline text="''In essence, the objective is for banks to be able to seize assets and collateral much sooner and to a greater extent than they can at the moment. They also want the current bankruptcy laws reviewed, the view being 'people mustn't be allowed to escape their obligations'. At the moment RBS are also looking at taking a much more aggressive approach with tens of thousands of people on relatively low amount debt repayment plans.''"/>

			<outline text="The Slog has ample evidence of pressure-switching from interest-only to full repayment loans'....as well as attempts to foreclose fraudulently. This is effectively asking customers oversold debt by bankers from 2003-08 if they wouldn't mind screwing themselves so Freddie Goodwin's megalomania can be amortised. Nice. My contact concluded:"/>

			<outline text="''RBS along with a number of other banks is lobbying for a reform of debt laws and regulations in this country. Essentially they'll put the squeeze on people deep in debt but just coping.''"/>

			<outline text="If RBS staff are allowed to go any harder on such policies, they might just as well dress up in red and start using the rack. But 90% of the time, these drones are of course merely following the orders coming from those far above the train-timetables-and-tendering-for-gas-pellets process. And now that the Santander deal has collapsed,  things can only get worse '' for everyone: for the Spanish bank was going to take on 316 RBS branches in the U.K."/>

			<outline text="The knackered toxically insolvent bailed-out bank (82% owned by us and aren't we thrilled about that) was required by the European Commission in 2009 to sell the branches as a condition for receiving state aid. Santander has backed out after two years of haggling, and once again every taxpayer is entitled to ask why."/>

			<outline text="Whenever anyone from an Arab wealth fund to a sovereign State gets to see the RBS books, they tend to reverse in the opposite direction in sixth gear. The Slog has been using RBS Group insiders for eighteen months now as the source of allegations that the real toxicity of the Group is way, way beyond anything the public has been told. Further, Freedom of Information (FOI) requests simply bounce off Stephen 'I'm above the Law' Hester, as the bank has been cleverly structured to ensure that the vast majority of the bank's jiggery-pokery lies beyond the definition 'State' or 'State owned'.*"/>

			<outline text="The bank said in a statement Friday that it would continue to work on fulfilling its obligations to the European Commission, and vowed that the decision would not impact on 'service to customers'. So if you have an account with RBS, you should be very afraid of being serviced bigtime in future by the Rogered Bowel Syndrome."/>

			<outline text="All of which brings us back full circle to those 1600 customers currently in dispute with the Great Monetiser. So removing all names, pack drill and possibilities for injucting, here are some telling excerpts from just a few victims' accounts of being at war with the RBS:"/>

			<outline text="''.....given the circumstances surrounding the closure of our Personal Bank Account, and your own close links with the Accused, we are legitimately concerned that you were personally involved in the orchestrated closure of this Account'...an act which we believe also constitutes the Criminal Act of Conspiring to Pervert the Course of Justice. We will deal with the matter of NatWest's / RBS's overall liability for our massive losses (i.e. as result of our improper &amp;amp; fateful introduction to XXX XXXXX) under separate cover'...'"/>

			<outline text="'Upon discussing the case with the Banking Ombudsman, who was horrified at RBS's conduct, we were told that this conduct seriously breached the Banking Code'...'"/>

			<outline text="'The Joint Personal Account was closed, without even informing us until the week after, on a Friday afternoon (on the 2nd October '09), before a vital Monday legal deadline (on the 5th October '09) in relation to our Proceedings at the Royal Courts of Justice'...Proceedings in which we have been forced to act as Litigants in Person, and having to prepare for substantive High Court submissions [because] we were left without access to money'....'"/>

			<outline text="I would stress that, before reaching any conclusions about the above content, readers should remember that:"/>

			<outline text="1. The above extracts could be a pack of lies; but"/>

			<outline text="2. Some of the behaviour mentioned in there rings true'....and sounds familiar."/>

			<outline text="*Those so keen on the Branson acquisition of NHS primary care services should note that the same thing applies there."/>

			<outline text="*    *    *    *    *    *If you had asked me two years ago whether 'financial repression' was a reality or a blogosphere-invented conspiracy theory, I would've said the latter. But surveying the pending Court cases relating to UK retail banking at the moment, there is a veritable Alpine mountain range of evidence to demonstrate that at least four banks are actively involved '' with senior management approval '' in fraudulent asset repossession and thinly disguised extortion."/>

			<outline text="It's also clearly doing it with the full approval of HM Treasury."/>

			<outline text="This tells you all you need to know about how bad our fiscal and banking situation is here in Great Britain'...and how amoral the politico-banking axis has become. It also explains why 'glitz bricks' prices are heading for the Moon, and gold is almost certainly having a brief rest before powering well beyond the magic $1800 an ounce."/>

			<outline text="Over the coming year, I will be holding the very minimum possible in cash. What you do is your affair. In the meantime, I would suggest that '' without massive passive resistance to banks and tax inspectors, we're all going to be fleeced yet again."/>

			<outline text="When the President, his Vice President, his Secretary of State and others deliberately lie to American citizens about the tragic killing of an American ambassador and three of his staff, the nation has reached a point where decisions need to be made on Election Day."/>

			<outline text="What disturbs me the most is the utter disdain for the truth that has marked the presidency of Barack Obama. It has been nearly four years of repeated lies about the steps that were taken to respond to the financial crisis; the so-called ''stimulus'' which wasted billions, and the literal explosion of entitlement programs."/>

			<outline text="The administration literally seized control of General Motors and Chrysler, which were then in the normal process of bankruptcy, claiming to save the jobs of auto workers. What they really did was bypass the legitimate creditors and investors. They arbitrarily discontinued GM's relationship with hundreds of auto dealerships, adding their employees to the unemployment lines. They then insisted that GM invest millions in the creation of an electric car that cost $47,000 to purchase and ended up buying them for government use with taxpayer's money."/>

			<outline text="Obamacare, more than 2,700 pages in length and incorporating more than twenty new taxes, was passed by a Democrat-controlled Congress with little evidence that any of those who voted for it had even read it."/>

			<outline text="Under Obama, the foreign policy of this nation has  seriously weakened its position in the world and, combined with cuts to defense spending, put its ability to protect the homeland and project power abroad at risk. The administration failed to negotiate an agreement with Iraq that would permit U.S. troops to remain in place,  leaving Iraq vulnerable to al Qaeda. Setting a date for withdrawal from Afghanistan has only emboldened the Taliban. Obama's foreign policy has been an abject failure."/>

			<outline text="The so-called Arab Spring has mutated, not into the establishment of democratic institutions in nations like Egypt or Libya, but an opportunity for the Muslim Brotherhood to ascend to positions of power in opposition to America's interests in the Middle East and Northern Africa."/>

			<outline text="We now know that President Obama skipped some sixty percent of the daily CIA briefings and this no doubt led to his ignorance of the impending tragedy in Libya, but the fault also  lies  with the State Department that ignored the slain ambassador's pleas for increased security for the embassy and consulate. This is a president who has been absent without leave as the Islamic jihad began to heat up across the face of the globe."/>

			<outline text="The hostility of President Obama's administration to the vital energy sector of our nation has denied access to oil extraction on vast acreage of federal lands. It has denied permits for offshore drilling. It has mercilessly attacked the coal industry, responsible for nearly fifty percent of all electricity generation in the nation. Plants for electricity have closed down under the pressure of costly EPA regulations. Only the natural gas sector has grown, thanks to the technology of fracking, but both oil and gas is being extracted mostly on private land."/>

			<outline text="The economy, which could have recovered in much the same way it did during the Kennedy and Reagan administrations, has limped along while 23 million Americans remain out of work or have stopped looking for jobs. There are 47 million Americans on food stamps, utilizing eighty percent of the budget of the Department of Agriculture. There are millions who have seen the value of their homes decrease and others have faced foreclosure."/>

			<outline text="The Federal Reserve has pumped Trillions in fiat money into the banking system, and it hasn't done a thing except to raise the specter of rampant inflation. The Labor Department was just caught rigging the data on new jobs to get it below 8 percent in a record-setting 43 months."/>

			<outline text="Barack Obama, a man whose personal life history is mostly a concoction of lies, whose personal records have been hidden from public examination, and who stunned viewers of his first debate with Mitt Romney by appearing so unprepared and so willing to repeat past lies, has been at the heart of a disastrous presidency."/>

			<outline text="Americans, no matter what their political affiliation, who are now saddled with $16 trillion in national debt, nearly six trillion of which was imposed in just the last four years, have a common interest to defeat Barack Obama. It's high time for a big change, folks."/>

			<outline text="The shooting death of black teenager Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman in a gated community in Florida in February led to a fierce debate about racial profiling, justice and the easy availability of guns."/>

			<outline text="It also raised questions not just about America's gun culture, but the lobby effort that led to the creation of the so-called &quot;stand your ground&quot; laws that we have come to learn so much about."/>

			<outline text="They are now in place in 24 states, with Florida being the first."/>

			<outline text="Continue reading the main storyIt is the rare politician in America, even liberal politicians, who will vocally support increased gun control''"/>

			<outline text="End QuoteRoger SimonsPolitical columnistThe law expands on a centuries-old British legal principle that permits the use of deadly force in self-defence of your own home. It also grants immunity from arrest, detention and prosecution."/>

			<outline text="Under Florida's &quot;stand your ground&quot;, Mr Zimmerman was initially freed without charges, but following an outcry that included street protests reminiscent of the civil rights movement, the local police chief was sacked and the prosecutor quit the case."/>

			<outline text="After a further review, Mr Zimmerman was charged six weeks later with second degree murder and is currently free on bail awaiting trial. His lawyers say their case will be based on self-defence, not stand your ground, arguing that their client was being attacked when he fatally shot the 17-year-old schoolboy."/>

			<outline text="Professor Mark Hoekstra of Texas A&amp;amp;M University in Houston said making the use of deadly force permissible has come at a price. He studied its effect in 21 states."/>

			<outline text="&quot;In terms of homicides, what we show'...there is about an 8% increase in the homicide rate caused by these laws'...that is about 600 additional homicides per year.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Florida's bill was co-written by the National Rifle Association (NRA), the powerful pro-gun lobby that has a membership of almost 4m and an annual budget of $300m (&amp;#163;187m)."/>

			<outline text="Their efforts have been largely successful. In most states, anyone over 18 can walk into a gun shop and buy a gun. The number of guns that are privately owned in America is staggering, there are 90 guns for every 100 people and carrying a concealed weapon is legal in 49 states across America."/>

			<outline text="In Florida, George Zimmerman was legally carrying a concealed handgun on the night Trayvon Martin was killed."/>

			<outline text="Influence"/>

			<outline text="The driving force behind the rollout of &quot;stand your ground&quot; bills in legislatures across America was an umbrella organisation called the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a conservative, pro-business group that receives funding from the NRA and is 98% funded by corporate and sponsor donations."/>

			<outline text="With a $7m budget (&amp;#163;4.4m) and more than 2,000 members or sponsors, the NRA took its model bill to ALEC to push upon state legislators."/>

			<outline text="The Trayvon Martin killing has caused critics to claim that ALEC has undue influence and question what they say is an unhealthy relationship between legislatures, the NRA and corporate America."/>

			<outline text="Lisa Graves, executive director of the Center for Media and Democracy, called ALEC a &quot;corporate bill mill&quot; and said large corporations - including large British-based multinationals such as BP, GlaxoSmithKline and AstraZeneca - that give money to ALEC are helping to fund their lobbying efforts, regardless of whether or not they have any interest in being part of the pro-gun lobby."/>

			<outline text="&quot;Their money helps support ALEC's overall operations, its propaganda machine and its efforts to get these bills pushed in state houses across the country.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="In a statement, ALEC said it has disbanded its committee that pushed &quot;stand your ground&quot; laws out to legislators and has no current policies on the law."/>

			<outline text="Politicians 'afraid'Scott Maxwell, a columnist for the Orlando Sentinel newspaper who has covered the Trayvon Martin killing extensively, said the level of influence of groups such as ALEC is worrying."/>

			<outline text="&quot;We're reached a point in this'...country where legislators and congressmen aren't the ones writing their bills any more...the corporations or these think tanks are and that's a scary thought'...in some regards democracy is increasingly in this country, for sale.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Despite other recent high profile gun crimes, including June's mass shooting in Aurora, Colorado during a screening of the new Batman film that left 12 dead, the wider issue of gun control, the reach of the gun lobby and the &quot;stand your ground&quot; laws are all seemingly off-limits in this election season."/>

			<outline text="While both President Barack Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney spoke out about a search for answers amid the media storm that followed the Trayvon Martin shooting - which took place in a key battleground state - the silence since has been notable."/>

			<outline text="Political columnist Roger Simons gave his take on the reasons why the two presidential candidates remain silent: &quot;They're afraid, they are afraid to lose voters. It is the rare politician in America, even liberal politicians, who will vocally support increased gun control.&quot;"/>
