I was watching the network news for a brief minute last night when I got home from work. The news was on when I turned on the television, but I planned to watch a Simpsons rerun on a different channel. Right before I flipped the switch I saw this story on a real-live run on the eighth-largest bank in England, which is ongoing and spreading to other financial entities.
I don't have time to write up a full feature, but here is a link to a stories about it from The Times Online and the BBC. This is our future.

Activist group The Space Hijackers acquired a tank which they planned to sell at auction outside the DSEI arms fair in East London. When police prevented the tank from reaching the arms fair they announced they had a second tank which was then approaching the arms fair.

Two large peace marches and rallies are planned in the next two months. The Portland Legal Defense Network needs volunteers to assist them as they support the activists who hit the streets to voice their opposition to the war/occupation in Iraq, the potential war on Iran, and the war on the working people of America.
Timing is everything, and the permitting processes for NorthernStar at Bradwood and for OregonLNG at Warrenton are on parallel paths. Attend as many of the public meetings as you can. Please do whatever you can to keep our communities safe and strong.
It¹s critical to have MANY MANY people at the Warrenton meeting on Sept. 18, because FERC counts attendance and adores fossil fuels like LNG. FERC is the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Wear your red shirts and your buttons!
Kelly Stewart, Sheriff Dep't. undercover cop still on stand. Prosecutor Parmley brings up that there is new evidence—this is the audio that the defense uncovered, of the *question* in question, and subsequent answer. (Background: it is an audio recording whose existence was apparently heretofore unknown. Likely a small recorder in someone's pocket.)
Virtual Worlds? Office of the future? With serious global issues on the increase, the idea of meeting your boss [well maybe his avatar]at the virtual water cooler may not be science fiction.

Neoliberalism, 2008 Selectees, Neocons, Ruling Elite
Let's call Barack Obama what he is—a sock puppet for the ruling elite. Obama made this plainly obvious recently when he tabbed Zbigniew Brzezinski as his top foreign policy adviser. In addition to his affiliations with the Council on Foreign Relations (as director), the Trilateral Commission, and the National Endowment for Democracy, Brzezinski was the architect of Carter's Afghanistan policy, that it to say he is responsible for killing thousands of innocents and organizing the Afghan Arabs, later to become "al-Qaeda." It is said David Rockefeller asked Brzezinski to create the Trilateral Commission and details were hammered out at Rockefeller's Pocantico Hills estate outside New York City. Rockefeller later introduced the idea to the Bilderberg group in Knokke, Belgium in the spring of 1972. As author Holly Sklar has noted, in "1973 the Trilateral Commission was founded by David Rockefeller, Chase Manhattan Bank chairman, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Carter's national security advisor, and other like-minded 'eminent private citizens.' Some 300 members (up from about 200 members in 1973) are drawn from international business and banking, government, academia, media, and conservative labor. The Commission's purpose is to engineer an enduring partnership among the ruling classes of North American, Western Europe, and Japan—hence the term 'trilateral'—in order to safeguard the interests of Western capitalism in an explosive world. The private Trilateral Commission is attempting to mold public policy and construct a framework for international stability in the coming decades. Throughout this book, 'trilateralism' refers to the doctrine of world order advanced by the Commission" (Trilateralism: The Trilateral Commission and Elite Planning for World Management, Edited by Holly Sklar, South End Press, 1980).

Personal Experience
I feel like I'm seeing more free piles in PDX than I used to. You know, the boxes or piles of stuff that people set in the green strip next to the street where people will hopefully take it. Often there's a sign that says "FREE", but not always. I seem to be seeing increasing recognition that this area of a residence is "the free zone" generally, and there's no need for a sign.
Shortly before 10 am on the morning of September 11, 2001, amid rumors of a fourth hijacked plane headed for Washington, DC, a mystery aircraft appeared in restricted airspace over the White House. There has never been an official explanation for this incident, which has provided abundant fuel for 9/11 conspiracy theories.

Update and Court Report from 9/12
[NOAA just released it's report on this summer's weather. This is what global warming looks like.]
Life inside the U.S. military reflects the conflicting class interests in this country, often in its deadliest forms. While technically a "volunteer" military, the great bulk of its recruits come from working class families and are largely joining because of a lack of job and educational opportunities. For them, signing up is a chance to acquire the skills they need to get a decent job once they become civilians, though, in reality, military service has little to offer in this regard. On the other hand, the majority of the military's professional officers and policy makers come from more privileged layers of the population. For them, the military is a career where they can take their "rightful place" lording over the grunts and climb the ladder as they would if they were working for a corporation or financial institution. Because of this divide in opportunity and expectations, which is rooted in class inequality, the great majority of soldiers are subject to the arrogance, lies, and disregard for their personal well-being at the hands of their superiors, as are workers are to the capitalists in civilian life.
Deregulation and liberalization have contributed to the present chaos. Through deregulation and internationalization, getting into and out of investments as fast as lightning is increasingly possible.

should be able in the near future to buy a package that contains a hydrogen producing generator. It will be able to be connected to a solar panel of any kind, and with DC current it will split water into oxygen and hydrogen gas. It is actually very simple. The device will have a system which has probes placed in water which when DC current is applied will produce oxygen on one probe and hydrogen on the other.

Billions Over Baghdad: How Did $9B in Cash Airlifted From the Fed to Iraq Go Missing?
Listen to Segment || Download Show mp3 Watch 128k stream Watch 256k stream Read Transcript One month after the invasion of Iraq, the United States began airlifting planeloads of cash to Baghdad. Between April 2003 and June 2004, a total of $12 billion dollars of US currency was shipped to Iraq where it was to be dispensed by the Coalition Provisional Authority for reconstruction. To date, at least $9 billion dollars cannot be accounted for. In a startling new expose in Vanity Fair, Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalists Donald Barlett and James Steele follow the money trail from the Federal Reserve to Iraq. [includes ![]()
On September 11, 1857, 150 years ago, a massacre of 121 Americans, from Missouri and Arkansas took place. The dead were unarmed men and women of a wagon train, shot in cold blood by Mormons in Utah. The killers were under the leadership of their Mormon Church, doing this killing in the name of Mormon religious beliefs. They also manipulated and lied to the area's Indians with the sole purpose of laying the whole world's blame on them. This parallels, somewhat, the New York twin towers attack.
