Facebook is driven by a single, unique goal. Its priority isn’t to gain more users (it already has 750 million of those), nor does it feel compelled to find stupid ways to increase pageviews. Its primary goal right now isn’t to increase revenue, either — that will come later.

There is a lot of talk these days about "exposing" the mainstream media. Here are some revealing quotes I have collected about the media over the years (some are as old as the media itself).

Excerpt from ebook on ebay, “Treasure Enigma at Tumacacori Arizona,” By Gary Don Oliver

In my studies of Human history, and in my efforts to try to understand which records of historical events are true and which ones are false, I have developed useful guidelines that use both accurate and falsely written documents to understand what really happened.  

Nothing you will ever read about history is more important than why it was written.  Before you can ever understand what…

Anonymous has called for a 2 month "Occupation", and we'd like to show Solidarity by proposing a Huge National/International Strike, to begin Oct 15th, for as long as it takes, to peacefully rid ourselves of this parasitic banking and military system that is holding us all, including our planet, hostage.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Bank of America will start charging debit-card users $5 a month to pay for purchases. The move comes as the cards increasingly replace cash and as banks look for ways to offset the loss of revenue from a new rule that will limit how much they can collect from merchants.

Paying to use a debit card was unheard of before this year and is still a novel concept for many consumers. But several banks have recently introduced or started testing debit card fees. That's in…
