December 2, 2010

Dear Friend of Liberty,

This week, the Federal Reserve released some of the details on its emergency lending programs.

Dr. Paul on Bloomberg Dec 2 2010

Finally, Proof that Cancer is a Man-Made Disease

A study of ancient bodies has determined that cancer is a man-made disease, one fueled by the excesses. Tumors turn out to be extremely rare until very recent times, when pollution and poor diet became issues.

Researchers analyzed potential references to the disease in classical literature, and also searched for signs in the fossil record and in mummified bodies. But despite examining tissue from hundreds of Egyptian mummies, they confirmed only one case of… Continue

I'M SOOOO OUTA THERE!

No, I'm not leaving the site. I have however just pulled my membership from MANY groups. It's not personal just practical. I've reset the email attached to my account to one that I actually receive and read on a regular basis in order to receive group notifications from the '12160 admin steering committee group'. The email address in question gets forwarded to my cell phone so basically I'm just trying to avoid getting 9,000,000 group emails every day on my cell phone.

Fed made $9 trillion in emergency overnight loans

By Chris Isidore, senior writer December 1, 2010: 6:05 PM ET

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The Federal Reserve made $9 trillion in overnight loans to major banks and Wall Street firms during the financial crisis, according to newly revealed data released Wednesday.

The loans were made through a special loan program set up by the Fed in the wake of the Bear Stearns collapse in March 2008 to keep the nation's bond markets trading normally.

Federal Workers Will Still Receive Raises Despite Pay Freeze

President Obama’s proposal of a pay freeze for federal employees is a small step towards curbing government spending. However, a closer look shows there is less to it than meets the eye. In fact, many federal employees will still see their salaries increased.

While Obama’s plan would stop the annual across-the-board cost of living adjustment (COLA) for all federal workers, it will not stop workers from getting raises altogether. The freeze will not affect pay raises for job… Continue

Trained state police observers to patrol retail outlets

Now "mall cop" has a whole new meaning.

Plainclothes troopers from the Greensburg barracks Wednesday began patrolling Westmoreland Mall and other retail outlets, a crime prevention program that is believed to be a first in the state. The goal is to put a crimp in retail theft and far more serious offenses, including terrorism.

The patrols will continue through the holiday shopping season into the first week or two of January, said state police spokesman Stephen… Continue

How can one possibly know that nuclear war approaches? History provides the clues we’re looking for. Just like history informs us when a forest is susceptible to a major forest fire. The exact timing might be impossible to figure out, but we can know the… Continue

The "Great Game" and the Conquest of Eurasia: Towards a World War III Scenario?

Mackinder's Geo-Strategic Nightmare

“The great wars of history — we have had a world-war about every hundred years for the last four centuries — are the outcome, direct or indirect, of the unequal growth of nations, and that unequal growth is not wholly due to the greater genius and energy of some nations as compared with others; in large measure it is the result of the uneven distribution of fertility and strategical opportunity upon the face… Continue

Eternal Vigilance Is The Price of Liberty

Speeches before the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society, January, 1852

Wendell Philips

Speech

All hail, Public Opinion! To be sure, it is a dangerous thing under which

to live. It rules to-day in the desire to obey all kinds of laws, and takes

your life. It rules again in the love of liberty, and rescues Shadrach from

Boston Court House. It rules to-morrow in the manhood of him who loads

the musket to shoot down, — God be praised ! — the man… Continue

More Relevant NOW! The Bankers Manifesto of 1892

2005 07 02

Revealed by US Congressman Charles A. Lindbergh, Sr. from Minnesota before the US Congress sometime during his term of office between the years of 1907 and 1917 to warn the citizens.

"We (the bankers) must proceed with caution and guard every move made, for the lower order of people (that's YOU!) are already showing signs of restless commotion. Prudence will therefore show a policy of apparently yielding to the popular will until our plans are so far… Continue

THIS Will Be Your Next Wallet

Are you ready to give up cash, and maybe even give up your credit cards? I'm not, but there are plenty of companies -- from Google to AT&T -- that think we will.

The idea has been around for more than 20 years but has never come to fruition, because the basic technological tools weren't readily available. Now they are. They're called smartphones.

Earlier this month, Google waved around a prototype Android phone with a… Continue
