truth will always out–even when you’re Barack Obama.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Obama Years Ago Helped Fund Carbon Program He Is Now Pushing Through Congress” is a FOXNews story by Ed Barnes.  In short, “While on the board of a Chicago-based charity, Barack Obama helped fund a carbon trading exchange that will likely play a critical role in the cap-and-trade carbon reduction program he is now trying to push through Congress as president.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The charity was the Joyce Foundation on whose board of directors Obama served and which gave nearly $1.1 million in two separate grants that were “instrumental in developing and launching the privately-owned Chicago Climate Exchange, which now calls itself “North America’s only cap and trade system for all six greenhouse gases, with global affiliates and projects worldwide.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that’s only the beginning of this tawdry tale, Mr. Barnes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The “privately-owned” Chicago Climate Exchange is heavily influenced by Obama cohorts Al Gore and Maurice Strong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For years now Strong and Gore have been cashing in on that lucrative cottage industry known as man-made global warming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Strong is on the board of directors of the Chicago Climate Exchange, Wikipedia-described as “the world’s first and North America’s only legally binding greenhouse gas emission registry reduction system for emission sources and offset projects in North America and Brazil.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gore, self-proclaimed Patron Saint of the Environment, buys his carbon off-sets from himself–the Generation Investment Management LLP, “an independent, private, owner-managed partnership established in 2004 with offices in London and Washington, D.C., of which he is both chairman and founding partner. The Generation Investment Management business has considerable influence over the major carbon credit trading firms that currently exist, including the Chicago Climate Exchange.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://warofillusions.wordpress.com/2009/03/30/obama-maurice-strong-al-gore-key-players-cashing-in-on-chicago-climate-exchange/"&gt;More...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-7935535387299056214?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/HRJpjrEQlZE" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/HRJpjrEQlZE/obamas-involvement-in-chicago-climate.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><thr:total>1</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/11/obamas-involvement-in-chicago-climate.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-3732960351063353934</guid><pubDate>Sun, 29 Nov 2009 17:21:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-11-29T09:21:38.158-08:00</atom:updated><title>Climate Gate: Who's who</title><description>&lt;object width="320" height="265"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Cu_ok37HDuE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x402061&amp;color2=0x9461ca"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Cu_ok37HDuE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x402061&amp;color2=0x9461ca" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-3732960351063353934?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/-7KuoT3WGoo" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/-7KuoT3WGoo/climate-gate-whos-who.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/11/climate-gate-whos-who.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-6377230673647809647</guid><pubDate>Fri, 20 Nov 2009 21:22:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-11-20T13:29:07.965-08:00</atom:updated><title>Climategate: The Final Nail in the Coffin of 'Anthropogenic Global Warming'?</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SwcJxoRQWEI/AAAAAAAAAK4/GH6Ik91xryg/s1600/inconvenienttruthfraud.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SwcJxoRQWEI/AAAAAAAAAK4/GH6Ik91xryg/s320/inconvenienttruthfraud.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5406300625909602370" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you own any shares in alternative energy companies I should start dumping them NOW. The conspiracy behind the Anthropogenic Global Warming myth (aka AGW; aka ManBearPig) has been suddenly, brutally and quite deliciously exposed after a hacker broke into the computers at the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit (aka Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites of confidential files onto the internet. (Hat tip: Watts Up With That)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you read some of those files – including 1079 emails and 72 documents – you realise just why the boffins at Hadley CRU might have preferred to keep them confidential. As Andrew Bolt puts it, this scandal could well be “the greatest in modern science”. These alleged emails – supposedly exchanged by some of the most prominent scientists pushing AGW theory – suggest:&lt;br /&gt;Conspiracy, collusion in exaggerating warming data, possibly illegal destruction of embarrassing information, organised resistance to disclosure, manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public claims and much more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the alleged emails has a gentle gloat over the death in 2004 of John L Daly (one of the first climate change sceptics, founder of the Still Waiting For Greenhouse site), commenting:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“In an odd way this is cheering news.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But perhaps the most damaging revelations – the scientific equivalent of the Telegraph’s MPs’ expenses scandal – are those concerning the way Warmist scientists may variously have manipulated or suppressed evidence in order to support their cause.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are a few tasters. (So far, we can only refer to them as alleged emails because – though Hadley CRU’s director Phil Jones has confirmed the break-in to Ian Wishart at the Briefing Room – he has yet to fess up to any specific contents.) But if genuine, they suggest dubious practices such as:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Manipulation of evidence:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’ve just completed Mike’s Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) amd from 1961 for Keith’s to hide the decline.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Private doubts about whether the world really is heating up:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact is that we can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can’t. The CERES data published in the August BAMS 09 supplement on 2008 shows there should be even more warming: but the data are surely wrong. Our observing system is inadequate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Suppression of evidence:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can you delete any emails you may have had with Keith re AR4?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keith will do likewise. He’s not in at the moment – minor family crisis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can you also email Gene and get him to do the same? I don’t have his new email address.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will be getting Caspar to do likewise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Fantasies of violence against prominent Climate Sceptic scientists:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next time I see Pat Michaels at a scientific meeting, I’ll be tempted to beat&lt;br /&gt;the crap out of him. Very tempted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Attempts to disguise the inconvenient truth of the Medieval Warm Period (MWP):&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;……Phil and I have recently submitted a paper using about a dozen NH records that fit this category, and many of which are available nearly 2K back–I think that trying to adopt a timeframe of 2K, rather than the usual 1K, addresses a good earlier point that Peck made w/ regard to the memo, that it would be nice to try to “contain” the putative “MWP”, even if we don’t yet have a hemispheric mean reconstruction available that far back….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, perhaps most reprehensibly, a long series of communications discussing how best to squeeze dissenting scientists out of the peer review process. How, in other words, to create a scientific climate in which anyone who disagrees with AGW can be written off as a crank, whose views do not have a scrap of authority.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“This was the danger of always criticising the skeptics for not publishing in the “peer-reviewed literature”. Obviously, they found a solution to that–take over a journal! So what do we do about this? I think we have to stop considering “Climate Research” as a legitimate peer-reviewed journal. Perhaps we should encourage our colleagues in the climate research community to no longer submit to, or cite papers in, this journal. We would also need to consider what we tell or request of our more reasonable colleagues who currently sit on the editorial board…What do others think?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“I will be emailing the journal to tell them I’m having nothing more to do with it until they rid themselves of this troublesome editor.”“It results from this journal having a number of editors. The responsible one for this is a well-known skeptic in NZ. He has let a few papers through by Michaels and Gray in the past. I’ve had words with Hans von Storch about this, but got nowhere. Another thing to discuss in Nice !”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/jamesdelingpole/100017393/climategate-the-final-nail-in-the-coffin-of-anthropogenic-global-warming/"&gt;more...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spread this as far and wide as possible!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XD050VKY"&gt;You cn download the hacked files here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-6377230673647809647?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/iC5p8n7161g" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/iC5p8n7161g/climategate-final-nail-in-coffin-of.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SwcJxoRQWEI/AAAAAAAAAK4/GH6Ik91xryg/s72-c/inconvenienttruthfraud.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/11/climategate-final-nail-in-coffin-of.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-1955866225427317967</guid><pubDate>Thu, 19 Nov 2009 16:06:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-11-19T08:07:20.782-08:00</atom:updated><title>100% PROOF Gov. has tested DIRTY RAIN to infect AMERICAN CITIZENS! 15y ago!</title><description>&lt;script language="javascript"&gt;var VideoID = "8376"; var Width = 585; var Height = 370;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;script src="http://eclipptv.com/general/hdplayer/rt.php" language="javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-1955866225427317967?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/RcAIB28b4eI" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/RcAIB28b4eI/100-proof-gov-has-tested-dirty-rain-to.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/11/100-proof-gov-has-tested-dirty-rain-to.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-1875447835850563420</guid><pubDate>Sat, 14 Nov 2009 18:41:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-11-14T10:41:41.527-08:00</atom:updated><title>Ron Paul on CNBC Squawk Box 11-13-09 "Do Not Give The Fed More Power!"</title><description>&lt;script language="javascript"&gt;var VideoID = "8302"; var Width = 585; var Height = 370;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;script src="http://eclipptv.com/general/hdplayer/rt.php" language="javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-1875447835850563420?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/f5ybsXtF9pE" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/f5ybsXtF9pE/ron-paul-on-cnbc-squawk-box-11-13-09-do.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/11/ron-paul-on-cnbc-squawk-box-11-13-09-do.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-1432534052957048215</guid><pubDate>Sat, 14 Nov 2009 18:38:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-11-14T10:39:57.368-08:00</atom:updated><title>Rabbit Hole By Don Cooper</title><description>Will everyone please rise for the playing of the national anthem of the Unites States of America:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small, and the ones that mother gives you don’t do anything at all.

A culture that is so socially numb and easily pliable that words like “misspoke” and “misstated” have replaced the word “lied”; a culture where a person can be asked a yes or no question and speak for 5 minutes and never answer the question and yet everyone believes that somehow he did; a culture where a black person can’t be referred to as black; a 5'0" 100-lb woman can’t be referred to as smaller and weaker than a 6'6" 250-lb man; a culture where the wife of a president is considered able to lead a nation for no reason other than she was the wife of a president and ignoring that her version of a story is given more credence than actual video footage; a culture where one can be sued if they don’t hire someone even if they are unqualified for the job; a culture where people can be arrested, booked and thrown in jail for driving a car and feel as though somehow they deserve it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is an entire generation or two of people that are so anesthetized that they condone the invasion and destruction of sovereign third-world countries that couldn’t possibly pose a threat to our national security whatsoever and the killing of innocent men, women, children in the process: Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan and yet practically bring the country to a standstill for the death of 13 U.S. soldiers in Texas.

Dollar Will be Utterly Destroyed, Global Currency, New World Order</title><description>Friday, 6 Nov 2009 - The dollar will get "utterly destroyed" and become "virtually worthless", said Damon Vickers, chief investment officer of Nine Points Capital Partners. Due to the huge wage disparities between the United States and emerging markets like China, Vickers said that may resolve itself in some type of a global currency crisis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"If the global currency crisis unfolds, then inevitably you get an alignment of a global world government. A new global currency and a new world order, so we may be moving towards that," he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those who have claimed this is a fake clip I suggest you visit CNBC's website:&lt;br /&gt;http://www.cnbc.com/id/33709379&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="320" height="265"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/UpgZx-9FLbE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x402061&amp;color2=0x9461ca"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/UpgZx-9FLbE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x402061&amp;color2=0x9461ca" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-1824313901889200123?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/0dxYSORQjoM" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/0dxYSORQjoM/cnbc-dollar-will-be-utterly-destroyed.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/11/cnbc-dollar-will-be-utterly-destroyed.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-3561819796866913036</guid><pubDate>Fri, 13 Nov 2009 17:02:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-11-13T09:06:00.129-08:00</atom:updated><title>Everyone in Britain could be given a personal 'carbon allowance'</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/Sv2RnzLZ-HI/AAAAAAAAAKw/yfAOnik0H5U/s1600-h/petrol_1522476c.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 200px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/Sv2RnzLZ-HI/AAAAAAAAAKw/yfAOnik0H5U/s320/petrol_1522476c.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403635240853436530" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lord Smith of Finsbury believes that implementing individual carbon allowances for every person will be the most effective way of meeting the targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would involve people being issued with a unique number which they would hand over when purchasing products that contribute to their carbon footprint, such as fuel, airline tickets and electricity. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like with a bank account, a statement would be sent out each month to help people keep track of what they are using.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If their "carbon account" hits zero, they would have to pay to get more credits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those who are frugal with their carbon usage will be able to sell their unused credits and make a profit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lord Smith will call for the scheme to be part of a "Green New Deal" to be introduced within 20 years when he addresses the agency's annual conference on Monday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Environment Agency spokesman said only those with "extravagant lifestyles" would be affected by the carbon allowances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He said: "A lot of people who cycle will get money back. It will probably only be bankers and those with extravagant lifestyles who would lose out."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, some have criticised the move as "Orwellian" and say it will have a detrimental impact on business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ruth Lea, an economist from Arbuthnot Banking Group, told the Daily Mail: "This is all about control of the individual and you begin to wonder whether this is what the green agenda has always been about.

In the current analysis, however, researchers followed 485 children for eight years and found that children who remained on medication for that entire time showed no improvement in symptoms over those who had stopped taking the drugs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"If you put a child on medication, he or she is far better right at that time. The question for parents is: Is this going to make a benefit for my child long term?" said researcher William Pelham, of the University of Buffalo. "The answer is no. Behavioral treatments are going to have much better benefit in the long term."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another analysis of MTA data, published in the same journal, found that use of ADHD drugs appeared to stunt children's growth. Children who had never taken stimulant drugs were an average of six pounds heavier and 0.75 inches taller than children of the same age who had taken the drugs for three years. This height and weight difference was permanent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/026588_drugs_adhd_ADHD_drugs.html"&gt;Read More...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-8564599392685910113?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/sz8Z4dSDbG0" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/sz8Z4dSDbG0/adhd-drugs-proven-absolutely-useless.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/07/adhd-drugs-proven-absolutely-useless.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-683622641793804972</guid><pubDate>Sat, 11 Jul 2009 00:45:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-07-10T17:47:58.065-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Global Warming/Technology/Science/Health/Nature</category><title>Nanopillar Solar Cells</title><description>Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have made a new kind of solar cell by growing an array of upright nanoscale pillars on aluminum foil.

They didn’t try.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“What the hell do they think we are, puppets?” Thomas said. “They’re supposed to stay out of our business. They are our public servants.

That, at any rate, is the message we are now hearing from a broad range of journalists, policy analysts, and government officials. Introducing a comprehensive White House report on cyber-security released at the end of May, President Obama called cyber-security “one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation.” His words echo a flurry of gloomy think-tank reports. The Defense Science Board, a federal advisory group, recently warned that “cyber-warfare is here to stay,” and that it will “encompass not only military attacks but also civilian commercial systems.” And “Securing Cyberspace for the 44th President,” prepared by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, suggests that cyber-security is as great a concern as “weapons of mass destruction or global jihad.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, these reports are usually richer       in vivid metaphor—with fears of “digital Pearl Harbors” and “cyber-Katrinas”—than in factual foundation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://bostonreview.net/BR34.4/morozov.php"&gt;Read More...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-2016326888163122120?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/HUiZxgtHiys" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/HUiZxgtHiys/cyber-scare-exaggerated-fears-over.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/07/cyber-scare-exaggerated-fears-over.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-5982001619988205751</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:56:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-07-02T08:59:00.211-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Cap and Trade/Climate Bill/Taxes/Politics</category><title>Bureaucrats Will Carry Out Mandatory Home Inspections Under Climate Bill</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzZHuKWToI/AAAAAAAAAJw/lRyWfJRMhts/s1600-h/inspection.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 226px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzZHuKWToI/AAAAAAAAAJw/lRyWfJRMhts/s320/inspection.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353892783710424706" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The controversial climate bill that is set to be taken up by the Senate on Monday after its passage in the House will legislate home inspections by government regulators who will demand to audit every aspect of your property under the threat of substantial and repeated fines if their visits are denied or their demands not satisfied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;The climate legislation is written in a manner that automatically assumes that global warming is taking place and that it is attributed to rising CO2 levels, despite the fact that this is a highly contentious question and is being rejected by more and more scientists as time goes by.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;As Tony Pacheco writes in his &lt;a href="http://tinyurl.com/mx9555"&gt;excellent article today&lt;/a&gt;, the bill will “audit every aspect of your home and life”.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;The bill states every home owner will receive an energy audit. What is a home energy audit? It is an intrusive visit made by the bureaucrats at the Home Energy Team or a similar group. They will examine and report the way you live your life directly to RESNET (Residential Energy Services Network) . Light fixtures, socket types, spas, hot tubs, windows, appliances, walls and roofs will all be under review. Energy tests will be conducted throughout your house. At the end of the visit you will receive a report and a rating. The report will focus on the changes you need to make and the rating is called a HERS rating (Home Energy Rating System). RESNET will perform the audits through authorized contractors. RESNET has adopted the Mortgage Industry National Home Energy Rating Standards.

But people have unintentionally introduced the ants to all continents except Antarctica. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These introduced Argentine ants are renowned for forming large colonies, and for becoming a significant pest, attacking native animals and crops. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In Europe, one vast colony of Argentine ants is thought to stretch for 6,000km (3,700 miles) along the Mediterranean coast, while another in the US, known as the "Californian large", extends over 900km (560 miles) along the coast of California. A third huge colony exists on the west coast of Japan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/earth/hi/earth_news/newsid_8127000/8127519.stm"&gt;Read More...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-6794419830809355105?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/6cNryi49-fk" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/6cNryi49-fk/ant-mega-colony-takes-over-world.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzWnbVe_xI/AAAAAAAAAJo/3rvvl1OMmVA/s72-c/megacolonyants.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/07/ant-mega-colony-takes-over-world.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-22138145797204233</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:39:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-07-02T08:42:25.723-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Airport Security/Search Seizure/TSA/Civil Rights</category><title>Is Tougher Airport Screening Going Too Far?</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzVNIw6MII/AAAAAAAAAJg/m-IAB44e2bc/s1600-h/TSA.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 262px; height: 174px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzVNIw6MII/AAAAAAAAAJg/m-IAB44e2bc/s320/TSA.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353888478704316546" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt; The Transportation Security Administration has moved beyond just checking for weapons and explosives. It’s now training airport screeners to spot anything suspicious, and then honoring them when searches lead to arrests for crimes like drug possession and credit-card fraud.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But two court cases in the past month question whether TSA searches—which the agency says have broadened to allow screeners to use more judgment—have been going too far.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;A federal judge in June threw out seizure of three fake passports from a traveler, saying that TSA screeners violated his Fourth Amendment rights against unreasonable search and seizure. Congress authorizes TSA to search travelers for weapons and explosives; beyond that, the agency is overstepping its bounds, U.S. District Court Judge Algenon L. Marbley said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;“The extent of the search went beyond the permissible purpose of detecting weapons and explosives and was instead motivated by a desire to uncover contraband evidencing ordinary criminal wrongdoing,” Judge Marbley wrote.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In the second case, Steven Bierfeldt, treasurer for the Campaign for Liberty, a political organization launched from Ron Paul’s presidential run, was detained at the St. Louis airport because he was carrying $4,700 in a lock box from the sale of tickets, T-shirts, bumper stickers and campaign paraphernalia. TSA screeners quizzed him about the cash, his employment and the purpose of his trip to St. Louis, then summoned local police and threatened him with arrest because he responded to their questions with a question of his own: What were his rights and could TSA legally require him to answer?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204556804574261940842372518.html"&gt;Read More...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-22138145797204233?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/P_Gnz-NdA7M" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/P_Gnz-NdA7M/is-tougher-airport-screening-going-too.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzVNIw6MII/AAAAAAAAAJg/m-IAB44e2bc/s72-c/TSA.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/07/is-tougher-airport-screening-going-too.html</feedburner:origLink></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4524121899695544864.post-2827767975321749332</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:13:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-07-02T08:16:41.070-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Bloggers/Murdoch/News Corporation</category><title>Murdoch CEO Labels Bloggers “Political Extremists”</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzO94LYRJI/AAAAAAAAAJY/oTVS9w3zVzg/s1600-h/murdoch.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 203px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzO94LYRJI/AAAAAAAAAJY/oTVS9w3zVzg/s320/murdoch.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353881619484132498" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="unnamed10" align="left"&gt;A stinging attack by John Hartigan, the CEO of Rupert Murdoch’s News Limited, labels bloggers and alternative media outlets as “political extremists”. Hartigan implies that bloggers should be jailed as they are in oppressive police states like China and Burma.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="unnamed10" align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/07/01/hartigan-the-blogosphere-is-all-eyeballs-and-no-insight/"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(32, 85, 128);"&gt;In a speech to the National Press Club&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, Hartigan savagely dismissed blogs as, “Something of such little intellectual value as to be barely discernible from massive ignorance.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt; &lt;p class="unnamed10" align="left"&gt;“&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bloggers don’t go to jail for their work&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. They simply aren’t held accountable like real reporters….It could be said the blogosphere is all eyeballs and no insights,” barked Hartigan.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="unnamed10" align="left"&gt;&lt;span class="unnamed10"&gt;“In the blogosphere, of course, the mainstream media is always found wanting. It really is time this myth was blown apart.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;“Blogs, and a large number of comment sites, specialise in political extremism and personal vilification. Radical sweeping statements without evidence are common.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p class="unnamed10" align="left"&gt;Hartigan doesn’t seem to grasp the fact that the mainstream media is always found wanting because they habitually lie about news events and spin stories to suit the demands of their corporate owners. This is the very reason why blogs and alternative media outlets have become so popular and have eaten into the mainstream media’s audience share, because people are sick of being treated like idiots, sick of being lied to, and are desperately in search of the truth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="unnamed10" align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.prisonplanet.com/murdoch-ceo-labels-bloggers-political-extremists.html"&gt;Read More...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4524121899695544864-2827767975321749332?l=wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~4/Ta0vt8VV3Fk" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/WakeUpFreeYourMind/~3/Ta0vt8VV3Fk/murdoch-ceo-labels-bloggers-political.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (We Are Consciouness)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_C6Y3QBGGf-c/SkzO94LYRJI/AAAAAAAAAJY/oTVS9w3zVzg/s72-c/murdoch.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wakeupfreeyourmindnow.blogspot.com/2009/07/murdoch-ceo-labels-bloggers-political.html</feedburner:origLink></item></channel></rss>
