Short term Senator Barney Frank?
Hell yes. At first he said he wasn't interested, but today Barney Frank
wants to be interim Senator from MA until the special election.
Frank said that the fiscal cliff deal that passed the House of
Representatives earlier this week and set the stage for a return to the
same legislative fight in a matter of months "means that February, March
and April are going to be among the most important months" for the American
economy. The outspoken Democrat indicated he would only hold the seat until
the statewide special election and has no designs of carving out a career
in the Senate, but... more »

Workers making $30,000 will take a bigger hit on their pay than those earning $500,000 under new fiscal deal
Middle-class workers will take a bigger hit to their income proportionately
than those earning between $200,000 and $500,000 under the new fiscal cliff
deal, according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center.
Earners in the latter group will pay an average 1.3 percent more - or an
additional $2,711 - in taxes this year, while workers making between
$30,000 and $200,000 will see their paychecks shrink by as much as 1.7

Drunken plane passenger is TAPED to his seat during flight to New York after 'trying to choke one woman and ranting the plane was going to crash'
A drunken passenger on a New York-bound intercontinental flight was

Nazis secretly developed plot to drop radioactive bomb on New York from supersonic space rocket
Nazi chief Hermann Goering plotted to attack New York in a bizarre plot
involving a manned space rocket dropping a dirty bomb over the Manhattan
skyline.
Vying for Hitler's attention, the head of the German air-force, Hermann
Goering, set up a lab and a team of leading scientists to explore the
possibility of the radioactive attack on American soil.
Goering read the work of maverick Austrian engineer, Eugen Saenger and
particularly his belief that a space plane could be built.

Radical American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki booked flights for the 9/11 hijackers

later noted that the hijackers had used flights in the run-up to the
attacks to test security and surveillance.
Awlaki, who was born in New Mexico, had become the lead figure for al-Qaeda

Affected families stand to lose an average of about £1,300 per year, it

'Black Beauty' Meteorite Holds Water From Mars
Scientists are hailing the discovery of a fist-sized meteorite from Mars,
as a way to possibly unlock vital clues about the evolution of the planet.
Nasa says the rock, nicknamed Black Beauty, could tell them how Mars
changed from the warm and wet place it once was to its current cold and dry
state.
Discovered in Morocco's Sahara Desert in 2011, the 320g (11oz) space rock
contains 10 times more water than other Martian meteorites and could be the
first to have originated on the planet's surface or crust.

The Connecticut Elementary School Shooting: Where The Hell Are The Sandy Hook Bodies?
I came to the conclusion very shortly after the Sandy Hook shooting was
reported over the Jewish controlled MSM that it was all a massive
psy-ops. We all have watched as the Mainstream media brought out some
very bad actors to play the parts of the victims' "parents", as well as
officials that kept changing their stories. It does seem now that this was
a contrived episode for the sole purpose of brainwashing the already dumbed
down American public into accepting horrific gun control legislation and a
repeal of the 2nd amendment to the US Constitution.

enbridge line 9: all pain and no gain for ontario, quebec, and new england
Have you heard about Line 9?
Enbridge has begun a process that would create a third option to get their
dirty tarsands oil out of Alberta to sell to the rest of the world. The
Keystone XL pipeline would stretch from Alberta to Nebraska. (Gee, what
could go wrong?) The Northern Gateway pipeline would see, impossibly, huge
supertankers threading through the rocky, island-dotted British Columbia
coast. (Another no-brainer.)
Under this third plan, Enbridge would reverse the flow in two existing
pipelines - Line 9 and the Portland-Montreal Line. Oil would flow from

Prosecution Orders Investigation Against the Muslim brotherhood: Did America Pay them 10 Billion Egyptian Pounds?
Egypt's Chief Public Prosecutor Talaat Ibrahim has ordered an investigation
in an accusation against the Muslim Brotherhood of receiving 10 billion
Egyptian pounds from the United States, asking for the sources of the
Brotherhood's money to be revealed.
The prosecutor referred the complaint to the state security prosecution to
investigate it.
The two plaintiffs claimed that the United States granted the Brotherhood
the money illegally to back its interests in the region.
Mitt Romney, who lost to Obama in November, had made similar accusations

Happy Birthday to Dave Foley, 50.
A bit of good stuff:
1. Kevin Drum, anti-platinum coin.
2.But there's a White House petition for one now.
3. Norm Ornstein talked to Greg Sargent about the Speaker vote.
4. But Politico's Jake Sherman and John Bresnahan have the prize photo from

liberal/conservative scale, but I'm always up for a good appreciation of

Lebanon asks for $180 million to aid Syrian refugees
Lebanon, now a haven for 170,000 Syrians fleeing civil war, has asked
foreign donors for $180 million to help care for them and said it will
register and recognize refugees after a year-long hiatus.
The Beirut government has officially sought to "dissociate" itself from the
21-month-old struggle in Syria, nervous about the destabilizing impact of
the increasingly sectarian conflict in its bigger neighbor on its own
delicate communal balance.

Zero Dark Thirty: CIA Questioned Over Bin Laden Film Torture Scenes
US senators have demanded to know what the CIA told the makers of a
controversial film about the hunt for Osama Bin Laden about the use of
torture.
Zero Dark Thirty shows an al Qaeda figure undergoing waterboarding, which
simulates near-drowning, and other similar interrogation techniques before
eventually providing information that helps ultimately track down Bin Laden.
However, a Senate Intelligence Committee investigation into the CIA's
detainee programme has previously concluded that such methods produced no
useful intelligence.

SCAM ALERT: Coleman as Perpetual Huckster
There's an allegory that is popular among lawyers called the allegory of
the river. [1]
In this allegory, people find themselves near a river and confronted with a
stream of babies floating helplessly by in the current. Many begin
frantically to wade into the rushing water, saving as many babies as
possible.
Then one walks away. The others are stunned and ask why this one person is
abandoning the mission to rescue the babies floating down the river.
The one walking away says, "I am going upstream to find who is throwing the
babies in and stop them."

dreams - why I should never leave 37 Elizabeth Road, Haydock
now, this is a strange synchronicity one: the other night, inspired by my HC
Unit-conceit that memories might have a geographical basis (where due to
'googlin' our actual memories are being digitally stolen from us
and reconstructed on some secure server at Google or Bing or Yahoo in a
demonstration of 'if you don't use it, you lost it'
neglected-neuronic-pathways-are-erased fashion), I went on an 'astral
travel' back to 37 Elizabeth Road Haydock. Not as it must look today, but
as it must have looked back then in the 1980's when I lived there with my
Aunty.
I mean, Astral Travel - ... more »
Udo Wartena Encounter in 1940
As I have posted before, I will tackle specific UFO reports if they add
something. This one is particularly important. First off, Udo had his
encounter long before UFO's ever became public. This means no cultural
contamination. Secondly, Udo was a prospector and that makes him a highly
skilled observer who knows not to trust his memory and to make detailed
notes immediately. I consider prospectors to be the true scientists out
there and it is certainly part of my scientific education.
That is why this particular report is so good. He did not miss a thing and
asked the rig... more »
SSRIs and Linkage With Mass Shootings
Let me see. We have 5000 linked events in which the spate of mass
killings fit nicely in the third standard deviation in terms of a cause and
effect relationship. If I recall correctly, alcohol abuse will likely also
fit nicely into such a scenario except as it takes much longer and the
effect is much weaker. It could well be that SSRI accelerates the effect.
Another aspect of SSRI's that has not gained any coverage is that some
side effects are persistent long after discontinuance. I am bringing this
little morsel up for those who have been exposed to these drugs and are

Permian Extinction Causation
This certainly tightens up the linkage to the Siberian Traps in providing
an explanation for the Permian Extinction. A near continuous influx of
nickel rich ash would be feasible here. More work needs to be done to
tighten this up but it certainly looks good.
One thing that has not happened in human history is a serious flood basalt
that is regional in scope. However, what is operating in Hawaii may in fact
be as good as it actually gets. It may need a massive impact to make a
serious difference. I would like to see a convincing study of these events
that explains how the... more »
Wild Horses Out of Room
Unfortunately, it is politically incorrect to address the issue of
expanding wild population of traditional prey species. As we cannot rightly
tolerate a return of the predator prey cycle as we ourselves would soon
become prey and the cycle itself is horribly inefficient with huge swings
of boom and bust, it will become necessary to apply real husbandry.
In the case of the wild horse, that means an annual drive to corral a
portion of the herds while applying selection and disease treatment
protocols. This provides an annual source of horse protein that may be
handled in ... more »

John Friend & Brian Staveley discuss 9/11, Sandy Hook PSYOPS on Freedomizer Radio
I called into *Freedomizer Radio* on Thursday, January 3rd to discuss the

of *The Real News Online* was the guest. Sorry for the lame picture guys, I
didn't have the time or energy to put other photos with this audio clip.
The entire 7 minutes is worth listening to though, especially the end when
I bring up the Jew factor.

ALEC Says - State AG is Not 4 U or Me
One of the pieces of legislation we will see duplicated across the United
States by ALEC members this year will be:
Attorney General Authority Act
The State Attorney General currently is there to protect YOU AND ME from
the abuses of corporations.
Not if ALEC legislators have their way!
ALEC corporations don’t want the Attorney General to protect us - it cuts
into their profits when they have to pay up for abuses to the citizens of a
state.
So ALEC has introduced the Attorney General Authority Act
for ALEC corporate profit sector members - the public would not want thi... more »

"Django Unchained" Continues Hollywood's Sad, Shameful Legacy of Dealing With Slavery Era
*By MARC McDONALD*
The critical adulation that greets every new movie by Quentin Tarantino is
a sad commentary on our culture. Tarantino is an overrated hack who does
nothing more than rip off ideas from vastly superior directors from Europe
and Asia. He then waters down these ideas and re-works them into movies
that are infinitely inferior to the originals.
Tarantino is hailed as a "daring" and "radical" filmmaker, when in fact his
slick, commercial movies are about as daring and radical as a cup of
Starbucks coffee.
*Django Unchained*, the latest Tarantino film, is receiving univ... more »

£80bn lifeline is STILL not helping our small firms as they are frozen out of attempt to kick start economy
Small firms are being frozen out of the £80billion attempt to kick-start
lending, the Bank of England warned yesterday.
Despite being the backbone of the economy and a major employer, they are
not benefiting from the scheme the Bank is running with the Government.
The first major analysis into the ‘Funding for Lending’ initiative does
show, however, that *it has ‘significantly’ increased funding for large
firms* and homeowners wanting a mortgage.

Libyan police captain abducted in Benghazi
A police investigator was missing after being abducted in the
militia-ridden Libyan city of Benghazi, police said on Thursday, but tests
on a charred body showed it was not his.
The corpse charred with hydrochloric acid and found in the Buhmeida
district was not that of the missing Captain Abdel-Salam al-Mahdawi, head
of the city's criminal investigation unit, Prime Minister Ali Zeidan said.

Egyptian mag affirms Brotherhood infiltration of White House
Effectively affirming the concerns of five much-maligned Republican House
members and the evidence presented in an investigative book, an Egyptian
magazine claims six American Muslim leaders who work with the Obama
administration are Muslim Brotherhood operatives who have significant
influence on U.S. policy.
Egypt’s Rose El-Youssef magazine, in a Dec. 22 story, said the six men
turned the White House “from a position hostile to Islamic groups and
organizations in the world to the largest and most important supporter of
the Muslim Brotherhood.”
The Egyptian article was translated ... more »
Nine dead in Damascus car bomb amid rebel push
At least nine people were killed when a car bomb exploded in the Syrian
capital, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Friday amid
reports of furious combat raging around a major airport and a military
airbase in the north of the country.
Many people were seriously wounded in the car-bomb attack in a northern
Damascus neighbourhood, and the death toll may climb, the group's director
Rami Abdel Rahmane told AFP.
