Matters not to me if we be in the SOuth, North, East, or presumed West of one another. A sphere is a sphere with an infinite possibility for stabilization points to meet. We gathered our minds together and thought ... them ... out of their seats of power. Letting the dark - overlords - know that this is just the beginning of the end for them. And ... it is. Thanks a million, swanny. 23 Dec 2008 @ 09:13 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : The World as it is? Thanks vaxen I guess much of what I am has to do with traveling half a world away at the tender age of 18 in 1976 to go to a far out college with a first of its kind course. It was not so much the college thus perhaps but the finding out that the world that I knew was not the world as it was. The State or province I grew up in not being the center of the universe was a real eye opener for young me because it thus raised endless possibilities. Well if the world I knew was not the world as it was then was the world as it was really the world as it was? Deep questions for one so young but broached none the less and then the real learning and questioning of life begins with no real school or college but life it self to met and meet the answers. Many questions perhaps remain yes endless questions but learning and understanding and the search for truth and reality thus begin in earnest. One can no longer be so sure of their sure ways and truths. swanny 23 Dec 2008 @ 10:36 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : Unsustainable Economy Continued expansion of consumer credit is 'unsustainable' By Chuck Jaffe Last update: 8:28 a.m. EDT April 28, 2008 Christian Weller, senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, says that the United States has "developed an unsustainable economic model ... running an economy essentially by crossing our fingers ... hoping that consumers will keep paying their bills." Weller noted that credit debt statistics show that consumers who have been unable to tap into their home equity during the real estate bubble are now tapping into credit cards, but that they are also reaching the point where they simply can't keep going deeper into debt to spend the economy out of its doldrums. Also: Lincoln Financial survey indicates stimulus not likely to invigorate economy. 24 Dec 2008 @ 18:18 by vaxen : The... whole worlds 'economy,' swanny, is based on an illusion, a lie. When you get a loan it creates money. Out of thin air they invent it and charge 'interest' on it that can never be paid thus they create a debt based economy wherein nothing ever gets paid but the debt is only discharged yet remains. This way they can gobble up whole nation's real equity which is land, minerals, people, etc., without having invested a thing except your promise to pay and on that they base their system of usury which is condemned by all religions on Earth. An endless cycle of debt thus leading to war and famine and every other social ill imaginable. Ming, in his lates article, has a link to a very good article describing the whole putrid process. That is what you see falling not the real economy... Those who made and support the present world banking system are the worst humanity, if they are human, has to offer. Vile and repugnant men and women who thrive on the misery of others, and indeed, create it. The end of their reign on earth draws nigh. So they are murdering and maiming as many as possible in their futile attempt to maintain... Earth core itself will vanquish these pathetic creatures in order that all humanity might breath free air once more and establish balanced systems in consonance with nature... Thanks for you revelations, swanny... 24 Dec 2008 @ 19:36 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : True Enough Vaxen True Enough Vaxen but money is a lot like democracy Its a bad system but its the best one weve got the alternative is the caves and Im getting a little old for fresh air heating system hee hee its when the charging of the interest gets into the criminal range above 60% and when you get you Madoff types that corrupt and distort the system that well you get the current situation. 50 billion $$$$$$$ vanished into thin air and banks and royalty and the stars duped.... a masquerade par non so we have to make do with the flaws of democracy and money and interest until something better comes along like hmmmmm well according to the new civ edict I have to propose a constructive alternative? and not just simple observation and critizism.... well I've been trying to get the "climate dollar" proposal off the ground but haven't been to successful at it. Its a fascinating proposal Ive come up with that creates a nice and neat interesection between the natural planetary cycle intertwined with 24 points on the anthropospheric cycle to create a symbiotic ecological economic framework that can help control the climate and perhaps population and such and is perhaps expandible to other characteristics of nature as well but it would require the adoption by at least the G 20 to be functional and I don't have much say in that. The Ingeniousness of it is its inherent simplicity. If you like an overview and have connections to the G 20 somehow let me know anywho swanny. 24 Dec 2008 @ 20:10 by a-d : Swanny, there are MANY different kind of MONETARY SYSTEMS available!... of which only ONE is as intentionally evil,crooked and LYING,cheating as the one in place worldwide as of still today. Sooo... this argument to back to the cave is most imbecil and only is delivered as a cover -up for one;s true feeling about it all: ONE LIKES THE CURRENT Monetary System WITH ALL ITS EVIL and INJUSTICE Built-IN. So, if that is not your cup of tea, then, learn about other -BETTER and more FAIR /JUST- Systems that are available! this link : [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usury ] will give you a little glimpse WHY the System in Place today is the most wrong and evil( "evil" means DOUBLE STANDARD/y) possible!: " Usury (in the original sense of any interest) was at times denounced by a number of religious leaders and philosophers in the ancient world, including Plato, Aristotle, Cato, Cicero, Seneca[9], Plutarch,[citation needed] Aquinas[10], Muhammad[11], Moses,[citation needed] Philo[citation needed] and Gautama Buddha.[citation needed] For example, Cato in his De Re Rustica said: "And what do you think of usury?" - "What do you think of murder?" But one must always consider that usury, in historical context, has always been inextricably linked to economic abuses, mostly of the masses and of the poor; but sometimes of the financier and royalty, as bankrupt royalty has led to many a demise, thus frowning upon lending at interest or for a euphemistic "just profit"[clarification needed]. The main moral argument is that usury creates excessive profit and gain without "labor" which is deemed "work" in the Biblical context. Profits from usury are argued not to arise from any substantial labor or work but from mere avarice, greed, trickery and manipulation. In addition, usury is said to create a divide between people due to obsession with monetary gain. Most importantly, usury is the derivation of profit from biological time, which is linked to life, considered sacred, God-given and divine, leading to excessive worrying about money instead of God, thus subjugating a God-given sanctity of life to man-made artificial notions of material wealth. Usury was also prohibited in ancient China. Modern illegal triads take on the role as usurers, a practice called "loan sharking". Interest of any kind is forbidden in Islam. As such, specialized codes of banking have developed to cater to investors wishing to obey Qur'anic law. (See Islamic banking)" This is very interesting as well; how banking can be FAIR for ALL and profitable for ALL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JAK_members_bank 24 Dec 2008 @ 20:36 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : Money Well its all money and the problem is money period despite the various systems available some which are better than others true but all fundementaly flawed by nature because of their lack of connection to nature so I still advocate my climate dollar as a truly revolutionary step as it ties money back to nature and the natural cycle something which all other current systems now lack. Sure the details of them are different regarding the acceptance or not of interest and loaning and what have but like I stated previous.... the missing piece is not that so much that stuff but having a way to tie the dollar and humans to nature which the climate dollar system does. I sense youre missing my point but not sure why. Any of these other systems might work better than the "evil" one but theyre all "evil" unless they are subsets of the environment and not the other way around. The climate dollar system replaces the US dollar as the benchmark and instead sets the $1.00 at a value of 380 ppm of CO2 gas current concentration in the atmosphere. The current population of humans at about 6 billion people add 8 ppm CO2 to the atmosphere every year. This will bring the atomosphere CO2 gas level to approx 1180 CO2 ppm in the year 2108 which will give us and the planet temps equivalent to the Ecocene Era. My proposal suggests that as the CO2 ppm rises the value of the climate dollar goes down, so the projected 8 ppm rise in CO2 would result in a loss of 1 cent per year for the next 100 years resulting in $0.00 dollar climate value in the year 2108 if things do not change. The way to bring about change though is to float the current g 20 nations and 4 tribes currencies to the climate dollar so as a nation which has a lower CO2 emission relative to the climate dollar would equate to having a higher dollar value so for instance if Canada say was emmiting only 320 ppm CO2 per year then the canadian dollar relative to the climate dollar would have an incresed value of say i guess 60 /8 or $1.05 and nations thus would have an incentive to lower population and CO2 emmisions and hence the green house temp gas effect. hope that helps. ed 24 Dec 2008 @ 20:53 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : Koyoto The beauty of this system is its inherent simplicity and understandablity. The flaw with koyoto and the carbon credits trading system is basically no one can really understand them because they rigged and jigged to work. this climate dollar system works simply 'automatically" and naturally thus is.... well I think superior. ed 24 Dec 2008 @ 20:58 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : CO2 Measurement The way to measure the CO2 is satellite imagery and tools which now can measure the CO2 emmissions down to the scale of about 100 sq miles. there may have to be concessions made though even in this system for essential services and such but it is still more doable than koyoto. ed 24 Dec 2008 @ 21:58 by vaxen : Lots to... digest, there, swanny. Thanks for the links. But do you understand that America was not founded as a Democracy? A Constitutional Republic is not the same as Democracy, which exists in several forms such as direct, indirect, etc. I would also suggest an in depth study of the Federal Reserve and it's tactics. Maybe a refresher course on Colonel Mandell House (Huis) and his influence in instantiating the present system of rip off economics under Woodrow Wilson. In 1913 came the Coup but it had been planned for ever since 1871 when Washington D.C. was made the United States, a Corporation, in the Organic Act of 1871 which is an interesting study in hoodwinking. I'll check out your link and would, of course, appreciate examining your concept of money and assuredly could quarterback it through to G20 officiators and others if it is worthy of perusal. I do also have connections with the BIS so lots of possibilities are extant. Over the years many at NCN have introduced a variety of ideas where 'money' is concerned. Moneta, goddess of money, should also be studied and how the Romans did it. ;) A pleasure dialoguing with you swanny... 24 Dec 2008 @ 22:20 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : Math opps 60/8 would be $1.07 not a $1.05 my apologies.... well don't want to get off to a wrong start aye? blushes ed 25 Dec 2008 @ 00:15 by a-d : I absolutely agree with you Swanny!I think your idea to have the (recovered) HEALTH //or the recovery effort of Planet's Health as the measure is thee best one so far! Heyyy. Go for it: spread your idea as much as possible! Did you,BTW, see this: "Borrowing money to a beggar" on Max Sandor's Blog. Quite interesting! Shows what ENORMOUS Impact just ONE person can have when there is a Cosmic Fire burning within him! : ) Hugs& Merry Christmas to you! 25 Dec 2008 @ 00:20 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : spread the word and works well actually haven't had to much time for sowing the seed in the mists of moving and poor health and all but most Ive discussed it with think it most vivable so if you will assist in its disemination then..... and merry christmas the port/vino pouring has begun let us celebrate the new healing and new ecoeconomy happy new solstice ed 25 Dec 2008 @ 00:36 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : Temperature opps well Im getting a little tipzy here on account of the port but thought the global temp is important factor and so will include that data For the last 1000 years the global mean temp has been approx 15.06 Centergrade and we are now at a global mean temp of 15.68 Cent so there is work to be done folks and I don't want to do all of it so.... the ball is rolling swanny 28 Dec 2008 @ 13:36 by swanny @70.65.100.179 : New Band: CANADIANA dec 28 2008 sunday alberta canada Hi all heres my new band Canadiana link = http://radio3.cbc.ca/play/band/Canadiana well I like the "its love" song fav ed alfred 28 Dec 2008 @ 18:53 by vaxen : Heh, heh...

Israel Has No Intention of Granting a Palestinian State If Hamas Did Not Exist By JENNIFER LOEWENSTEIN January 02, 2009 "Counterpunch http://www.counterpunch.org/loewenstein01012009.html " - -Let us get one thing perfectly straight. If the wholesale mutilation and degradation of the Gaza Strip is going to continue; if Israel's will is at one with that of the United States; if the European Union, Russia, the United Nations and all the international legal agencies and organizations spread across the globe are going to continue to sit by like hollow mannequins doing nothing but making repeated "calls" for a "ceasefire" on "both sides"; if the cowardly, obsequious and supine Arab States are going to stand by watching their brethren get slaughtered by the hour while the world's bullying Superpower eyes them threateningly from Washington lest they say something a little to their disliking; then let us at least tell the truth why this hell on earth is taking place. The state terror unleashed from the skies and on the ground against the Gaza Strip as we speak has nothing to do with Hamas. It has nothing to do with "Terror". It has nothing to do with the long-term "security" of the Jewish State or with Hizbullah or Syria or Iran except insofar as it is aggravating the conditions that have led up to this crisis today. It has nothing to do with some conjured-up "war" – a cynical and overused euphemism that amounts to little more the wholesale enslavement of any nation that dares claim its sovereign rights; that dares assert that its resources are its own; that doesn't want one of the Empire's obscene military bases sitting on its cherished land. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article21611.htm In 2006 the US insisted that the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank hold free elections. When free elections were held, Hamas won. This was unacceptable to the Americans and Israelis. In the West Bank, the Americans and Israelis imposed a puppet government, but Hamas held on in Gaza. After unheeded warnings to the Gazans to rid themselves of Hamas and accept a puppet government, Israel has decided to destroy the freely elected government with violence. http://www.counterpunch.org/roberts12302008.html 4 Jan 2009 @ 17:32 by vaxen : Cease Fire? Gaza's Holocaust By Uri Avnery 1-4-9 Just after midnight, Aljazeera's Arabic channel was reporting on events in Gaza. Suddenly the camera was pointing upwards towards the dark sky. The screen was pitch black. Nothing could be seen, but there was a sound to be heard: the noise of airplanes, a frightening, a terrifying droning. It was impossible not to think about the tens of thousands of Gazan children who were hearing that sound at that moment, cringing with fright, paralyzed by fear, waiting for the bombs to fall. "Israel must defend itself against the rockets that are terrorizing our Southern towns," the Israeli spokesmen explained. "Palestinians must respond to the killing of their fighters inside the Gaza Strip," the Hamas spokesmen declared. As a matter of fact, the cease-fire did not collapse, because there was no real cease-fire to start with. The main requirement for any cease-fire in the Gaza Strip must be the opening of the border crossings. There can be no life in Gaza without a steady flow of supplies. But the crossings were not opened, except for a few hours now and again. The blockade on land, on sea and in the air against a million and a half human beings is an act of war, as much as any dropping of bombs or launching of rockets. It paralyzes life in the Gaza Strip: eliminating most sources of employment, pushing hundreds of thousands to the brink of starvation, stopping most hospitals from functioning, disrupting the supply of electricity and water. Those who decided to close the crossings under whatever pretext knew that there is no real cease-fire under these conditions. http://www.rense.com/general84/haza.htm Other entries in Articles 23 Aug 2022 @ 09:55: Gravity battery ref 23 Aug 2022 @ 09:53: Gravity battery ???. 2 May 2022 @ 06:45: How to Get Quality Dofollow Backlinks 23 Nov 2021 @ 18:26: What is Linkbuilding 25 Jun 2021 @ 15:37: Longitude at sea? 24 Aug 2020 @ 12:42: Climate and ocean 24 Aug 2020 @ 12:37: Climate update Aug 2020 15 Mar 2020 @ 19:11: Hang in.. 29 Jul 2019 @ 16:12: Onward 28 Feb 2019 @ 14:41: Solar Neighborhood pic
