9/11 Phantom Flight-Victim fights against Phantom Mastermind Trial in NYC
...at least we know that Debra Burlingame is still No.1 in charge of the 9/11 victim family members, to block *any* kind of significant counter evidence against the official story. Fact 1: AA77 was not listed in the BTS-ACARS triggered database. Fact 2: Since the alleged arrest of KSM, there is zero evidence, that he is even in Gitmo or just a made up identity. A trial in NYC would reveal, if the phantom turns into some actor or remains the same Phantom not visible at the trial and that's maybe what this dog- and pony show was about the first place - to keep a phantom in Gitmo. --- November 29th 2009 "...I am one of the organizers of a rally being held at noon this Saturday in Foley Square to stop President Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder and members of Congress from bringing sworn enemies of the United States into this country...Two weeks ago, 300 family members of 9/11 victims sent a letter to the President telling him we adamantly oppose this dangerous and unnecessary... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010 from Bookmarklet
Flight 77 never flew. Therefore, Burlingame Sr. was not a pilot, and his daughter not a "victim family member." She's a plant. Burlingame Sr. designed planes-hit-the-pentagon scenarios, and then got Disappeared. http://webfairy.org/dulce - Rosalee Grable

the Naudet Brothers' video has been tampered with.

ohhohhh!!! they changed the camera position and the sign reflects from the new spot -- That's Fake!! There's people in the scene!! More Proof of Fakery!!. These are the same assholes who never pay any attention to the object that's supposed to be a plane. DISTRACTION!! this sort of thing is very popular because it makes the whole event seem synthetic instead of still painfully real. - Rosalee Grable
rolling shutter artifacts are not a sign of fakery. much the opposite. http://www.dvxuser.com/jason... - Rosalee Grable
Rosalee, are you saying this is not the same as it is on the original Naudet footage? - heavyplast!c
the original naudet footage has been monkeycammed and decimated. That does not make it "fake." It was shot with a camera featuring automatic brightness control and rolling shutter. That does not make it fake either. - Rosalee Grable
That doesn't answer my question, a simple yes or no will do! - heavyplast!c
A yes or no will not do. It's a trick question, wrong either way. - Rosalee Grable
Ok, that's fair enough - heavyplast!c
"The same" has a mathematical quality to it, like two sides of an equal sign. If two things are at all different, they are not the same. Is the depicted video the same as the original Naudet footage? Who knows, and you certainly can't tell if Rosalee thinks so. If the video in question has been either "monkeycammed" or "decimated", then it is not the same as the original Naudet footage.... more... - Doctor Babs
real footage jiggered around with frames taken out does not make the footage animated or fictional. it has been dealt with to make it useful to the plotline, but photoshopping does not render it "unreal." I think Heavy Plastic can find "monkeycamming", perhaps with a different name, as an After Affects filter. - Rosalee Grable
There are some filters I used in Sony Vegas that simulate a hand held camera or some kind of earthquake effect, I think that is what "monkeycamming" means. I'm for the moment unable to do anything with both Vegas or After Effects because my computer turned into french fries !

Madam, Sir, let me comment on your 2 recent articles in your newspaper, Sydney Morning Herald, by Rick Feneley, at http://www.smh.com.au/world.... In my view, articles severely distort facts of their topic, the 9/11 attacks in New York. 1. Article does not mention at all a recent visit and presentations in Australia, New Zealand and Japan by the leading scientist Richard Gage, http://AE911Truth.org, and a group of 9/11 researchers. http://theHardEvidence.com 2. Article distorts or omits the fact that 9/11 attacks are a controlled demolition inside operation, per irrefutable scientific evidence, and per common sense too. sites collection at http://krunchd.com/911, http://stj911.org for one. 3. Article fails to mention the research work and results of leading Australian 9/11 researchers, at http://911oz.com, namely John Bursill and Hereward Fenton, if I'm not mistaken. Why?

REMIXX WORLD!: Authorities Deny Aircraft Are Spraying Aerosol Chemtrails and Forced Medications Over Ukrainian Cities (Martial Law Expected as Mystery Flu Spreads)
From CLG news: Mysterious flu in Ukraine continues to intensify --Nearly three quarters of the Ukrainian population have flu-like symptoms of the mysterious virus 10 Nov 2009 Digital Journal reported at the end of October that more than 40,000 Ukrainians contracted a serious virus but now more than three quarters (478,456) of Ukrainians have contracted the flu-like symptoms, according to Radio Netherlands... The mysterious flu strain has caused a variety of theories such as biological warfare. Jose Mosse, who is a former microbiologist for the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad, called into a radio talk show warning about a biological weapon that would occur in Ukraine by Baxter International.

What Do You Call a Carbonated Soft Drink? [US regional differences; enlarge map]
Pop - Tyson Key
I have seen this before and find it fascinating especially the parts of the country where it's referred to as a Coke. What happens if you want a Pepsi or a Sprite? - Kenton
Heh, good question, Kenton - Tyson Key
It's always called a 'Coke' regardless of what the beverage actually is. At least that's how it is/was with my country Southern relatives. - Derrick
But Derrick what I don't get is if you are in a restaurant that serves many different things, how would you order? I can see it if you go to someone's house and they say what do you want and you say Coke, you get what they have, but the restaurant part confuses me. - Kenton
Strange but true: I checked http://popvssoda.com as part of my job interview preparations before taking this job in Memphis back in 2005. - Daniel J. Pritchett
the same thing that happens when you call facial tissues Kleenex but you refer to a product other than Kleenex. it's not terribly complicated :). i call it soda-pop, which may be due to an unhealthy exposure to the Outsiders as a child. @Kenton in an environment where it's Coke, you would likely be asked what type in that situation, just as you would if you said you'd like a soda-pop and there was more than one type available. - jocoda
Kenton, they'd say they wanted a Coke, then the waiter/waitress would say what kind, then they'd say root beer, 7Up, whatever afterwards. I always just asked for iced tea. - Derrick
LOL Derrick, that sounds like the safe thing to do. - Kenton
I always say "soda" in hopes of avoiding the "you asked for Coke but all we have is Pepsi, is Pepsi OK?" question because I am happy drinking whichever. They always ask though, so I guess I need a new gambit. Worse, my parents like to pull out the old "were you raised by Yankees?!" when I say "soda" in their presence. - Daniel J. Pritchett
Anyone know what an "other" might be? - Frank Senseney
Frank: soft drink, fizzy, and cola come to mind. - Mark Trapp
Restaurants work the same way here, at least in Texas. The waitress takes your drink order, and you tell her what you want. No one here says "coke" generically, to a waitress. If the waitress asks me what I want to drink and I want Dr. Pepper, I say, "Dr. Pepper." However, in casual conversation, "coke" means soft drink here and when someone wants a soft drink, we say "I want a coke." - Trish R
Fizzy lifting drinks! - Yolanda
I think I say "soda." It's hard to say, because I generally call my beverage "DVC" (The right initials never stuck in my head when I switched from Diet Vanilla Coke to Vanilla Coke Zero, besides, VCZ is not as cool to say). I rarely ever use a generic term. My country-deepsouthern relatives say "pop." - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF
Why are people using the terms "country" and "southern" as meaning the same thing? - Trish R
Here in Australia they are usually called soft drinks or fizzy drinks, as opposed to beer which if often called "piss". "Let's have a piss-up, who's going to get the piss?" Classy eh? - jjprojects
The widespread emergence of using a specific brand of soda to refer to all types when many different types are vastly different from each other puzzles me. You can compare it to Xerox, but on the other hand you get the same result from a Xerox copy machine and a Lexmark copy machine while there's a drastic difference between Sprite, Coke, Dr. Pepper, et al. Reading the above comments I see how it's used, but how it's used seems like a waste of time to me. - Tom Harrison
Pop is Michigan - bcultral
Pop. When I lived in Georgia it was soda. - Itachi
The blog you cite is for invited readers only. - John P
"Tonic" is one of the "others" in Massachusetts. - John P

How do these people who go from one web conference to another all year long afford to do so? Are they all independently wealthy? #perplexed
Sponsors? - Rochelle
Whenever I get to go to something like that, it's because I'm incredibly fortunate to have the support of my employer. - Holly Rae
I was wondering the same thing. I'm looking at someone who doesn't even have a job and this person has attended 15 conferences all over the country this year. - Admiral Anika
I suspect either (1) they have the appropriate words in their job title such that they're able to convince their employer to pay for it or (2) they're independent consultants who write it off as a "marketing expense" or "training" to the IRS - Ken Sheppardson
Good question! - Spencer
This is what I've been wanting to know. - Yolanda
I never really understood these conferences -- I thought that social media should lessen the need for these types of things -- instead the numbers seem to have expanded even in tough economic times. Boondoggles is all I can guess. - Brian Sullivan
DO ANYBODY NO WHERE DA SIGN UP SHEET FOR FUN-FILLED CEWEBRITY CONFERENCE CIRCUIT BE AT? - Christopher Harley
Really good point Brian. - Tad from fftogo
Sullivan, makes an excellent point. I also want to know why there's so many of them. Often it's the same people giving the same panels/workshops with nothing new. - Admiral Anika
Thing is, this has been going on for decades. It's just that when your tax dollars pay the NASA civil servant in Hampton VA to travel to Washington DC, Houston, Mountain View, or Orlando for a "technical conference"/meeting every three weeks or Santa Barbara for "training", it's not live blogged and streamed over the internet. (Thank you all, by the way. That was me in the '90s, and it was a blast.) - Ken Sheppardson
Professional conferences are one thing - I understand employers sending developers to PDC or JavaOne or whatever, but I'm thinking mainly of the endless streams of web and "social media" conferences and what seems like the same exact crowd that goes to each of them all year long. - Tad from fftogo
Well if you can get a job with "social media" in your title, it's probably pretty easy to make the case to your employer that a conference with "social media" in it's title is the same thing, Tad. - Ken Sheppardson
@tad, et al. I would say it's mostly small business owners/solopreneurs trying to catch the "wave of the future of marketing" or something like that. So yes, it's mostly a tax write-off, but also usually a great networking/JV opportunity. Throw in a few nuggets that you hadn't heard before (depends on the quality of the conference), and add the fact that the "mental/purpose alignment"... more... - Alex Schleber
I still suspect there's a small group of the idle "rich enough" that goes to these events out of boredom and desire to socialize. :) - Tad from fftogo
There are probably some that are rich enough to afford it and others that get paid by conference sponsors to generate publicity for the conference. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Ken, if your ol' buddies can put someone on the moon, I think we can figure out how to get you guys to Orlando. - Micah Wittman
Alex Scoble
Popularity of a belief is not a good way at all to win an argument. The number of people who believe something has ZERO bearing on how true it is.
God. - Chris Greene
Exactly my point. - Alex Scoble from IM
2012 - Tad
Armed Moon Landing Conflict. - Christopher Harley
On the other hand, no amount of evidence is sufficient for many people to change their beliefs - especially when they believe in things which can't be proven or disproven. - Tad from fftogo
The OP is a true statement. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Actually, though popularity is a poor way to arrive at truth, it is still an amazingly effective way to "win" an argument. - Bruce Lewis from fftogo
It depends on the context of "win an argument". It many scenarios the number of people who believe you won the argument does determine who won the argument (if that populous is the arbiter of the contest). See what I mean? - Micah Wittman
...Unless the argument is about how many people believe something. - Matt Plummer
ROFL - Alex Scoble from IM
I think there is SOME relationship between truth and belief, rather than ZERO. But I agree that _argumentum ad populum_ is a fallacy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...). - Stephen Mack
I believe this discussion can't be won. - Jemm
Discussions aren't about winning, though, Jemm. They are about learning. Arguments are about winning. - Alex Scoble
Unless some portion of the people who believe something do so from their own observation, correct? - Kevin Pedraja
And it's possible that two people can observe the same thing and interpret it in different, even opposite ways, right? - Kevin Pedraja
Even observation alone doesn't make something true, though. - Victor Ganata
I'd argue that observations are more valid than mass opinion though, at least in the context of an argument (unless it was an argument over what more people believed). - Alex Scoble
Depends on the nature of the observations, and the origin of the opinions. All generalizations are bad, even this one . - LogEx
@Alex: True, bad choice of words. - Jemm
I want to propose some kind of meta-belief about belief in the belief that would only be true if it was believed. - Andrew C
Heh, LogEx, it's not a generalization at all, as Stephen Mack so kindly pointed out, it's an actual logical fallacy. - Alex Scoble
Right, but some guy on another thread, said, in effect "My observation validates my argument." Who was that, again...? - Kevin Pedraja
I thought some German dude long ago proved that every system of logic has inconsistencies. I would say that for every argument, observation is necessary, but not sufficient to demonstrate truth. - Victor Ganata
Victor, are you thinking of Godel's Incompleteness Theorems? ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... ) - Andrew C
belief < truth < reality - Nick Humphries
"Quod est veritas?" - Laurent
Andrew, yeah. Nick, is it really possible for truth and reality to be two different things? I just think that human perception of reality always fails to encompass the complete truth. - Victor Ganata
It's just nice to see so many agree that there is such "thing" as truth. - Gus
Much of the truth is probably inaccessible by human reasoning, but it certainly exists in an abstract sense. - Victor Ganata
Victor: Not according to the goof-ball wing of social constructionists. - Christopher A Carr
Saying "much of truth" is assuming that truth is quantifiable or can be portioned. :) Facts and truth are different things. - Gus
Well, there are statements that are true and can be logically proven to be true, and statements that are true but can't be proven to be so, and I think there are more of the latter than of the former. - Victor Ganata
Apple - Uncle CW™
@Victor Who can argue with the fact that you think that? - Gus
Yep, some statements are just unarguable, at least from the standpoint of formal logic. - Victor Ganata
Like when engineers believe they are UI designers? - Chris Greene
Yup, Chris, just like that. - Alex Scoble
As the saying goes, fifty million Frenchmen can be as wrong as one. Same goes for any other nationality. Propaganda and advertising exploit this fallacy using the "bandwagon effect". - Dennis Jernberg
I always thought that truth was dependent on your point of view - Davis Freeberg
Truth is never subjective - Alex Scoble from IM
Fact is never subjective, Alex. Truth is an opinion. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
According to dictionary.com, Mark, truth and fact are intertwined so much as to be almost synonymous http://dictionary.reference.com/browse... - Alex Scoble from IM
Truths and facts are not subjective. What we think they mean and what we do with them is. - Alex Scoble from IM
"Truth" often changes over time, as do "facts." Even the most objective people are subject to the limitations of current knowledge. Many things we accept as "facts" today were either disputed or unknown in the past. The history of scientific discovery is rife with certainties that later turned out to be false. - Kevin Pedraja
In a philosophical sense, truth is very very difficult to define. Better men and women than us have tried. - Matt G
Kevin, I would say that the truth was always the same, just that our understanding of it was limited by our knowledge at the time. In my view, truths are absolute, so if what you thought was true turns out not to be so, it is an error in judgement and not one of the cosmos. - Alex Scoble from IM
I would argue that a fact is something that is beyond subjective interpretation. (i.e. The earth orbits the sun.) A truth is the accepted wisdom of a people based on the subjective interpretation of the body of knowledge at any given time. That is probably not the "official" philosophical definition... - Kevin Pedraja
Yes, MVB just said something similar. I do not see fact and truth as frungible by the observations of man. - Alex Scoble from IM
The fact that people have different definitions and ideas of truth means that it is not ablsolute really. I am being pedantic though. - Matt G
Opinions and observations are obviously not absolute. This does not mean that truth isn't absolute. Lack of understanding of a truth does not invalidate the truth. - Alex Scoble
Truth stands outside of perception, viewpoint and subjectivity. - Alex Scoble
I agree that is how it should be, but I think that perception is reality! In a metaphysical way. What is is what humans believe and know. - Matt G
What reality is, is another question that we have wrestled with since time immemorial. Does reality exist outside our perceptions, viewpoint and subjectivity? Do we even have the capacity to understand reality? Given that all of our senses are subject to various filters and indirect links in to the brain can we ever truly trust that what we see, feel, touch, smell and taste is truly real? Are we in the Matrix? I don't have answers to those questions beyond my beliefs. - Alex Scoble from IM
Yes it is about questions and thats a good thing I think. I will go and criticise you on another thread now, cant think anymore. - Matt G
Yeah, the search for truth often results in more questions and less truth. - Alex Scoble from IM
Rum and metaphysics & Friday night is a match made in heaven! Thats perception. - Matt G
Truth is that particular universal which witnesses all states at all times. - Gus
Kevin, +1! "a fact is something that is beyond subjective interpretation." - Thierry R. Andriamirado from email
Maybe one day we'll know the truth. But which one? - Thierry R. Andriamirado from email
I would like to use my ask the audience, Alex - Eric Logan
Then how do we establish that something is a fact, since all our perceptions and measurements are subjective? - Victor Ganata
Not all our measurements are subjective. We can quite accurately measure the passage of time, for instance. No subjectivity needed for reading a digital clock. - Alex Scoble from IM
I think Einstein and others may disagree with your passage of time statement. - Brian Sullivan
No, they wouldn't. They would not say that measurement of time is a subjective factor, what they would say is that how time passes depends greatly on the speed of the observer. But there's nothing subjective about a highly accurate clock on earth and one on a fast moving satellite. The interpretation that you make when you realize that there's significant drift between the two might be subjective, but those measurements are not. - Alex Scoble from IM
"There is no truth, only interpretations" - empireofno
Alex, how do you measure ticks of a clock? It all depends on the reference frame of the observer. That's the whole point of relativity, that the passage of time depends only on the reference frame of the observer, and nothing else. - Victor Ganata
I said digital clock, Victor. :) And our atomic clocks have a very high degree of precision and accuracy. In fact nothing else we measure in this world comes close to the precision and accuracy of our modern scientific clocks. - Alex Scoble from IM
Another example of something that requires no subjectivity is the periodic table of elements. It's such an amazing piece of knowledge in it's conciseness, accuracy, precision and breadth of knowledge. It truly is a marvel of our modern world. - Alex Scoble from IM
Flat world. - Uncle CW™
I'm not gainsaying the fact that inanimate objects can have identical precision and accuracy of measurement. My main point of contention is that human perception is inherently subjective. The whole premise of the time dilation experiment involves two clocks with identical mechanisms, with identical precision and accuracy. But the result of the experiment is that what I see on the same clock will be different from what you see. - Victor Ganata
And while I agree that the table of elements is an awesome example of the power of observation, it doesn't by itself prove that electron orbitals are fact. - Victor Ganata
In order to make the claim "It's all subjective" or "There is no truth, only interpretations" you must first assume your claim is absolutely true - unless you are lying. In other words, you cannot make a "truth claim" that denies truth without contradicting yourself even before you open your mouth. - Gus
I didn't make that claim, so I don't have to defend any sort of contradictions. - Alex Scoble from IM
This statement is false. - Kurt Starnes
I'm not claiming "it's all subjective" or "there is no truth, only interpretation." I'm only claiming that our ability to comprehend truth is limited by the fact that human perception is subjective, and much of truth is inaccessible if you're only using formal logic. - Victor Ganata
Logic is the beginning of wisdom and not the end - Alex Scoble from IM
*shrug* Logic is a tool. I'm not sure it necessarily has anything to do with wisdom. - Victor Ganata
I was quoting Spock man! Spock! - Alex Scoble from IM
Calculus. I mean, do you KNOW how many people put their faith in it? IT'S ALL A PACK OF LIES - Glen Campbell, esq.
ROFL - Alex Scoble from IM
LOL. That is illogical! - Victor Ganata
Clearly, I don't comprehend the objective truth of Star Trek :D - Victor Ganata
You're letting me down, Victor. :) - Alex Scoble from IM
I agree most facts and states in the Universe are inaccessible to humans. However, a limit on knowledge does not necessarily mean a limit on sensing truth. A child can sense truth. A child can be right about something while the rest of the world is wrong. - Gus

9/11 Anniversary Bump: The distraction psyOPs around the History of DEW + Co. [by ewing2001) - http://www.acq.osd.mil/dsb...
aaship_stadium.jpg
Show all
[http://ff.im/v9cN ; decodingHistory ] Decoding "History" - The distraction psyOPs around the History of DEW + Co. by ewing2001 [01/04/09] --- The following 'complexity research' is also influenced with a reflection of a heavily manipulated history of Germany during the late 60s until late 90s. It started with the beginning of a fake anti-vietnam hippy movement, german false flag terror in the mid 70s and ended with the bogus GREEN PARTY in the late 70s, which also worked as a blueprint for follow-up models in the U.S. The purpose of this research is to strengthen the thesis, that the hippy movement in the 60s [defacto also a cover-up for Heroin Business in Vietnam], the 'Ecofication' (incl. eco-feminist fascism) of the german *and U.S. leftwing, the launch of the Green Party and a major operation of an International NewAge Movement has been orchestrated as a huge psyOP program, to distract from a 60 year long Directed Energy Weapon (DEW) program at the very same time... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
In the last 2 years, this program is finally covered by mainstream media, but never really was reflected in any major political debate so far. Planned follow-up research will show, that the role of british- and german psyOp think tanks tried exactly to limit the debate on this. Huge distraction programs had been carefully designed by Tavistock Institute, german BundesNachrichtenDienst, Friedrich Nauman Institute and others. - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Also the invention of Television should be reflected which helped to improve and control this major cover-up program. It worked basically as an own 'matrix' parallel with others, to establish this cause. The mentioned institutes above furthermore helped to infiltrate and misled these pseudo oppositional movements and continue to do so. At this point there still is no paradigm shift, to wake up or 'decode' the victims of it, in sight. - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
[ps: it has to be noted that the Larouche Movement partly manipulated some historical revisions on this matter as well. However LaRouche interestingly influenced Ronald Reagan for his SDI program, which included Directed Energy Weapons right from the start. The LaRouche Movement, which once morphed out of the Influence of plausible 1950's CIA fronts "Socialist Party" and Max Shachtman's... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Right after 9/11 when LaRouche implied, that "Cheney had something to do with 9/11", he obscured the Issue and focussed on a typical 'larouchinized' pseudo-political analysis, reflecting half-truths similar to his former associate Webster Tarpley, who still ignores the importance of SDI, DEW and 9/11 TV Fakery facts as well.] It's convenient to conclude, that the concept of 9/11 TV Fakery was also chosen, to obscure side effects of DEW. The following notes should give a hint as to why. - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
From a December 2007 unclassified "Defense Science Board Task Force" paper "on Directed Energy Weapons" we learn, how old the DEW program is, which possibly was started right after the end of World War 2. The paper is available at http://www.acq.osd.mil/dsb... Historians have yet to establish, if both Soviet Union and East Germany including... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
[ed: acq-osd = Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Aquisition, Technology and Logistics] The paper opens like this: "...Directed energy offers promise as a transformational “game changer” in military operations, able to augment and improve operational capabilities in many areas...This task force was asked to review all directed energy programs in the Department and other... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
The report by the Defense Science Board distinguishes also between different directed energy systems, which i think might have been used for the Destruction and Disintegration of the Twin Towers on 9/11. Since *this thesis was brought forward during the end of 2001, it is heavily attacked by any kind of opposition. The distinctions of 'High Power Lasers' in this paper are: - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
1) High-Energy Lasers Chemical lasers, solid-state lasers, fiber lasers and free-electron lasers 2) ABM and ATL programs Work with hydrogen fluoride, oxygen iodine, deuterium fluoride, deuterium fluoride-carbon dioxode, which possibly also creates some specific cancer, once used in high dosis. Some firefighters and first responders, which suffer from 'synergetic neurotoxins' might be... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
3) chemical oxygen iodine laser weapons (COIL) The 1977 (!) coil program [turned into the ABL COIL 2005 program] It contains gaseous chlorine, molecular iodine, hydrogen peroxide + potassium hydroxide. 4) HF hydrogen fluoride laser weapons 5) DF deuterium fluoride laser weapons 6) DF-CO deuterium fluoride-carbon dioxide laser weapons - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
7) DPSS lasers [produces 1064 nm wavelength light] frequency-doubled using a nonlinear optical process = 532 nm light According to this Acq-osd report, laser devices currently employed by the Marine are green lasers (532nm) which produce such a strong beam, that it "temporarily reduces visual acuity at a distance of 300m or more... The Operator must therefore avoid to preclude a risk of... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
9) Fiber Lasers combining the outputs of many fiber lasers (100 to 10,000 !) to achieve a highly efficient HEL (High Energy Laser). 10) Free-Electron Lasers (FELs) using a relativistic electron beam [e-beam] as the lasing medium. The e-beam energy requires the creation of an e-beam (typically in a vacuum) and an e-beam accelerator. FELs have the widest frequency/wavelength of any laser type. - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
11) Airborne Lasers "conceived in the early 1980s", focusssing "on integrating a multi-megawatt COIL with a 1.3 micron wavelength [!!] into a modified Boeing 747, along with an adjunct laser pointing and tracking system to provide acquisition, detection, and target tracking..." see also http://www.boeing.com/defense... ; Boeing Worried About Airborne Laser... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
"...THEL laser was completed in 1999..." 13) Maritime defense using lasers Note: HPM High-Powered Microwave Weapons incl. Narrowband/continuous wave (band ratio about 1 percent) Narrowband/pulsed (band ratio about 1 percent) Wideband (band ratio < 100 percent) Ultra wideband (band ratio >100 percent) "...Many foreign countries have invested in small, technologically simple HPM sources.... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
The 2007 defense paper also confirms, that "laser-based optical incapacitation devices have been deployed to Iraq..." It explains that DoD Funding into high-energy research goes into 6 departments: DARPA, MDA, HEL-JTO (High Energy Laser-Joint Technology Office), Army, AirForce, Navy. The defense paper points out that DEW could be obtained by terrorists and also refers to some "Line of... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Secretaries of Defense since 1997: William Cohen, Donald Rumsfeld, Robert Gates In this context it's possibly also interesting to know, which living, former Secretaries of Defense might be still among some current power brokers as well: Frank Carlucci former Deputy Director of the CIA from 1978-1981; business interests in General Dynamics, Westinghouse, CB Commercial Real Estate, BDM... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010

Other still living Secretaries of Defense: Robert Strange McNamara [former world bank until 1981], former John F. Kennedy's cabinet, honorary trustee for the Brookings Institution, Board of Trustees of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
James Rodney Schlesinger Homeland Security Advisory, consultant to the United States Department of Defense; member of the Defense Policy Board; since 2006 co-chairman of a Defense Science Board study on DOD Energy Strategy; since June 2008 head of a task force to ensure the "highest levels" of control over nuclear weapons, Board of Trustees of The MITRE Corporation; Senior Advisor for... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Schlesinger used the peakOil scam already during some OPEC scams in 1973 and 1979, which seem to have coincided with german false flag terrorism of the second generation of the Rote Armee Fraction (RAF) during the years 1973 -1977. The history of the beginning of the german terror group RAF is inspired by two german anti-vietnam students which had been victims of assasinations or almost... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
The story goes like this: Josef Erwin Bachman, who came from east germany, was heavily influenced by nazi papers like Deutsche National-Zeitung and right wing tabloid BILD ZEITUNG [published by Axel Springer]. Bachman shot on student Rudolf Dutsche in 1968 , who fled himself from east germany, coincidentally one day before the Berlin Wall was build.... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Kurras was head of the Berlin Staatsschutz who was part of a terror drill called "Fuechse jagen" [hunting Foxes] during a protest day against the former 'Shah of Persia' Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, when Ohnesorg was shot by Kurras. The reports about this incident had been contradictive. It is also important to know that one of the official founding members of the RAF, was yet another neonazi... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Mahler is free since 1980. In August 2000, Mahler became member of german neonazi party NPD. Since then he is also known as a so called "Holocaust Denier", with occasional 'public provocations' since then. Interesting to know is, that in the context of the rising german 9/11 Truth Movement during 2002-03, the very same Mahler was one of the first 'public hecklers' during an event in Berlin, obviously to "discredit this movement" with his own appearance. - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
During the 70s Mahler was close with lawyer Otto Schily, who also was a friend of Rudi Dutschke. Schily initiated a trial against 'Ohnesorg-Killer' Kurras, but this process never took place. Was this all just some dog and pony show for some cleverly arranged false-flag operation, linked to international Oil- and War Business? Schily was also one of the official co-founders of the german... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Shortly after Kelly's remark about the CIA was promoted in some book during 1992, she officially committed suicide with a gun, together with her partner Gert Bastian, some ex-Major General of the German Federal Armed Forces, who also was co-founder of a group called "Generals for Peace". No accurate time of death could be determined because of the delay in finding the corpses. Kelly... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Kelly was also responsible for the 1985 relaunch of what i call "TIBETpsyOp", a carefully designed 'reality tv program' of CIA puppet Dalai Lama. TIBET_OP is one of many, which obviously was created to keep masses of leftwings busy, looking into other directions, while i.e. the production of Directed Energy Weapons was heavily ignored. Kelly initiated debates on the matter of 'Tibet' in... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
The history of so called bio stores worldwide started in 1971 in Berlin with a store named „Peace Food“, by Ramon und Anchalla Markus. 'Peace Food' was immediately sold to Yoga-Organisation and Cult Ananda Marga, which was already created in the 1950s by former journalist Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar aka Anandamurti. Sarkar's potential direct ties to the CIA couldn't really be established, but... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
By now it was established that the TIBET psyOP is a sophisticated program written by the Friedrich Nauman Institute in Germany, which also influenced a heaviliy infiltrated 'peace movement' in the U.S. Back to 1985: In the same year also former CIA advisor Erkin Alptekin, who has worked for the CIA's Radio Liberty, participated in the foundation of the "Allied Committee of the Peoples... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
In the U.S., obviously this scheme was relaunched with the 'actors' Ralph Nader and the establishment of the U.S. Green Party as some third party construct since 2001. Like Schily, also Nader is an Attorney and affiliated with the Middle East via his parents from Lebanon. Like Petra Kelly, Schily worked for a 'Robert F. Kennedy supporter', Daniel Patrick Moynihan. In 1965 Nader gained... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Nader also doesn't speak out on Directed Energy Weapons at all, neither he informed any of the Green Party Members about the relaunched SDI Program incl. Future Combat System. Officially he's now an "Independent", who ran with Ford Foundation associate Matt Gonzalez (Pacifica Radio) for U.S. President.

The author of 'GLASNOST' was officially former soviet union chief Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev, who became the last General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, interestingly also in the key year 1985 [serving until its collapse in 1991]. It's more logical that Gorbachev was just another puppethead, who worked on behalf of someone other's interest ; It's also important... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
In 1979, Gorbachev was promoted to the "Politburo" (similar in its function to both U.S. Democratic- and Republican Parties' Central Committee), as a candidate member, and received full membership in 1980 at the very same time, when the GREEN PARTY was created in Germany, as if this all follows some carefully designed calendary script. In 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed which... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010
Mikhail Gorbachev is currently also member of the Club of Rome, once founded in 1968, linked to yet another famous LeftWing distractionOP -the peakOil psyOp, which meanwhile is also connected with several 'doomsday cults'. Among some obvious puppet heads, the *real influence* among the founding members of CoR came from Hugo Thiemann (Battelle) and Max Kohnstamm. Kohnstamm was formerly... more... - ewing2001akaNicomedy2010

I think this is something he's practiced for years. Didn't someone say he did this a long time ago on SNL? - Tad
@Dennis O'Neill must be a real Baltimorean - he wrote "The" Chesapeake Bay. Most bays don't have a "the" but we always say "The" Cheasapeake bay. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
ok, but can he draw Canada? Huh? Thought so! - Shey, Jamaican of FF
Let's try that again. This time using a whiteboard. :D - AJ Batac
Spencer - I guess politicians have evolved from second rate actors to second rate comics. At least comics generally come up with their own material. - Robert Felty
This is a long-time Franken bit. For example, here's a clip of him doing this back in 1987 on Letterman: http://www.youtube.com/watch... - Stephen Mack

Fa La La La Lindsay
Today I learned that the only place on Earth where you could really dig a hole straight through to China is in Argentina. Most everywhere else you'll end up in an ocean. (Polar Opposites: http://www.zefrank.com/sandwic...). Most noteworthy to any Looney Tunes about to make the attempt...

Handy piece of information, thanks! - Kenton
I knew I should have taken that left turn at Albuquerque! - Josh Haley
probably on condition to pass from center of the earth. - Mahmood Padura
good to know - Derek Hansen
@Mahmood - yes, if you were to attempt to dig directly through the center of the Earth. - Fa La La La Lindsay
<----- starts digging... - Alejandro
Are you in Argentina, Alejandro? - Fa La La La Lindsay
so that's why Mark Sanford was going to Argentina so much, to get to China! - Nathan Eckenrode
Another thing to do here in Argentina. LOL :-) - Mitchell Tsai
entonces era cierto que cavando se llega a China, Jajaja...traten de no difundirlo, tenemos demasiados problemas, haber si se les ocurre hacer un túnel, jajaja. - Céu de Buarque
ha, lll. :) - edythe
Lindsay , check if Sanford has made in china somewhere on his body. - Mahmood Padura
Russellreno
This is so true, although LA has similar action. - Russellreno from Bookmarklet
I live in LA so I think Russell is probably right. There's a solid chance this could be the I-40 / I-25 interchange in Albuquerque as well though. :) - Bryan Zirkel
I used to drive through this intersection twice a day when I worked in Norcurse. - Dave Roth
Reno's spaghetti junction is like a kids ride compared to the outside world. As a child these interchanges represented Big City to this small town kid. - Russellreno
I will cry if I ever have to move to ATL. - Daniel J. Pritchett
Me too, Daniel. - Michelle Martinez
Never been to Atlanta, but this reminds me of the East L.A. interchange. Six freeways all meeting up in one place. - Victor Ganata
LMAO! That must be Spaghetti Junction up by Norcross. Looks about right.... - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
That's definitely what it feels like to drive through there. Ugh. - Carmen - Happy 2010!
At least it would be shady - Josh Haley
It's called 'Spaghetti Junction'? *dead* - Admiral Anika
looks like the MacArthur maze to me..... - Stephanie Segel
I arrange my work schedule & errands so that I avoid all of the nastiest parts of Atlanta traffic. mostly. - jbrotherlove
OMG that is SOOOO spaghetti junction. I miss driving on 285 late at night when you could sail all the turns with no traffic. So win. - EricaJoy
I don't understand it at all. I was driving in ATL last summer and traffic everywhere and all the highways have at least six lanes in each direction. In NY, we're lucky to have 3 lanes. - Bryan R. Adams
Looks more like Toronto during rush hour. - Zachary TG
@Anika: Yup, they've called it speghetti junction as long as I can remember. @Bryan: Atlanta's a case study in proving that adding more lanes (past 3 or 4) does approximately squat in terms of making traffic any better. @Daniel: Atlanta's not too bad if you stay in the city, preferably near the train. The suburbs blow (I grew up in one). Still too damned hot, though. - Joel Webber
