Smart skin: Electronics that stick and stretch like a temporary tattoo
skin tatoo-An ultrathin, electronic patch with the mechanics of skin, applied to the wrist for EMG and other measurements.8/11/2011 | Liz Ahlberg, Physical Sciences Editor | 217-244-1073; eahlberg@illinois.edu

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Engineers have developed a device platform that combines electronic components for sensing, medical diagnostics, communications and human-machine interfaces, all on an ultrathin skin-like patch that mounts directly onto the skin with the ease, flexibility and comfort of a temporary tattoo.
skin scrunched-Led by John A. Rogers, the Lee J. Flory-Founder professor of engineering at the University of Illinois, the researchers described their novel skin-mounted electronics in the Aug. 12 issue of the journal Science.The circuit bends, wrinkles and stretches with the mechanical properties of skin. The researchers demonstrated their concept through a diverse array of electronic components mounted on a thin, rubbery substrate, including sensors, LEDs, transistors, radio frequency capacitors, wireless antennas, and conductive coils and solar cells for power.We threw everything in our bag of tricks onto that platform, and then added a few other new ideas on top of those, to show that we could make it work,” said Rogers, a professor of materials science and engineering, of chemistry, of mechanical science and engineering, of bioengineering and of electrical and computer engineering. He also is affiliated with the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology, and with the Frederick Seitz Materials Research Laboratory at U. of I.

The patches are initially mounted on a thin sheet of water-soluble plastic, then laminated to the skin with water – just like applying a temporary tattoo. Alternately, the electronic components can be applied directly to a temporary tattoo itself, providing concealment for the electronics.We think this could be an important conceptual advance in wearable electronics, to achieve something that is almost unnoticeable to the wearer, said U. of I. electrical and computer engineering professor Todd Coleman, who co-led the multi-disciplinary team. “The technology can connect you to the physical world and the cyberworld in a very natural way that feels very comfortable.Skin-mounted electronics have many biomedical applications, including EEG and EMG sensors to monitor nerve and muscle activity. One major advantage of skin-like circuits is that they don’t require conductive gel, tape, skin-penetrating pins or bulky wires, which can be uncomfortable for the user and limit coupling efficiency. They are much more comfortable and less cumbersome than traditional electrodes and give the wearers complete freedom of movement.If we want to understand brain function in a natural environment, that’s completely incompatible with EEG studies in a laboratory, said Coleman, now a professor at the University of California at San Diego.The best way to do this is to record neural signals in natural settings, with devices that are invisible to the user.Monitoring in a natural environment during normal activity is especially beneficial for continuous monitoring of health and wellness, cognitive state or behavioral patterns during sleep.In addition to gathering data, skin-mounted electronics could provide the wearers with added capabilities. For example, patients with muscular or neurological disorders, such as ALS, could use them to communicate or to interface with computers. The researchers found that, when applied to the skin of the throat, the sensors could distinguish muscle movement for simple speech. The researchers have even used the electronic patches to control a video game, demonstrating the potential for human-computer interfacing.

Rogers’ group is well known for its innovative stretchable, flexible devices, but creating devices that could comfortably contort with the skin required a new fabrication paradigm.Our previous stretchable electronic devices are not well-matched to the mechanophysiology of the skin, Rogers said.In particular, the skin is extremely soft, by comparison, and its surface can be rough, with significant microscopic texture. These features demanded different kinds of approaches and design principles.Rogers collaborated with Northwestern University engineering professor Yonggang Huang and his group to tackle the difficult mechanics and materials questions. The team developed a device geometry they call filamentary serpentine, in which the circuits for the various devices are fabricated as tiny, squiggled wires. When mounted on thin, soft rubber sheets, the wavy, snakelike shape allows them to bend, twist, scrunch and stretch while maintaining functionality.The blurring of electronics and biology is really the key point here,Huang said.All established forms of electronics are hard, rigid. Biology is soft, elastic. It’s two different worlds. This is a way to truly integrate them.The researchers used simple adaptations of techniques used in the semiconductor industry, so the patches are easily scalable and manufacturable. The device company mc10, which Rogers co-founded, already is working to commercialize certain versions of the technology.

Next, the researchers are working to integrate the various devices mounted on the platform so that they work together as a system, rather than individually functioning devices, and to add Wi-Fi capability.The vision is to exploit these concepts in systems that have self-contained, integrated functionality, perhaps ultimately working in a therapeutic fashion with closed feedback control based on integrated sensors, in a coordinated manner with the body itself,Rogers said.The National Science Foundation and the Air Force Research Laboratory supported this work.

INFOWARS SPECIAL REPORT: Globalists’ Extermination List Exposed Aaron Dykes Infowars.com August 12, 2011

In a Special Infowars Report, researcher Aaron Dykes exposes the global population database apparatus used by eugenicists to target populations for reduced births, soft kill and extermination. From the IBM-developed Hollerith punchcards used in the 1890 U.S. census, to race-mixing studies for Cold Springs Harbor and concentration camps in Rockefeller-funded Nazi Germany, eugenicists have long tabulated vital statistics in order to attack subtly and with precision.Now they are targeting our food supplies, water, air and environment in attempt to shut off our future. How will elites utilize the human genome code, blood samples and DNA they’ve spent decades compiling? Why do foundations of the rich spend so much on the 3rd World population reduction? Aaron Dykes reports on the New World Order’s obsession with eugenics and population control.

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

Tropical depression forms north of Bermuda
AP – Fri Aug 12, 9:47 pm ET

MIAMI – A tropical depression has formed in the Atlantic but it is moving away from Bermuda and the United States.The National Hurricane Center said Friday afternoon that the storm was about 260 miles north of Bermuda. It had maximum sustained winds of 35 mph and was moving east-northeast at 16 mph. Some strengthening was expected and the storm could turn into a tropical storm Friday night or Saturday.No coastal watches or warnings have been issued.

Flood damage to key Iowa highway a setback, engineers say Reuters By David Hendee – Fri Aug 12, 8:30 pm ET

OMAHA, Neb (Reuters) – This year's flooding along the Missouri River has eroded bridges and roadbed on Interstate Highway 29 in southwest Iowa, a key point in the route between Kansas City, Missouri, and Fargo, North Dakota.Inspections on two I-29 bridges near Hamburg, Iowa, found damage caused by scouring floodwater including an 11-foot hole under the pavement, said Bob Younie, maintenance chief for the Iowa Transportation Department.The discovery was a setback to hopes that I-29 would reopen quickly after water recedes next month following flooding on the Missouri River that has soaked property from Montana through Missouri this year.Interstate 29 and southwest Iowa have been inundated since June by flooding created by record releases from Army Corps of Engineers dams on the Missouri River in the northern plains.The river was not expected to return to its banks until late September. It was more than five feet above flood stage on Friday at Omaha and more than four feet above flood stage at Hamburg, Iowa.Flood-caused scouring has also damaged I-680 near near Omaha's Mormon Bridge. At least seven highways in eastern Nebraska and western Iowa remain closed by flooding.Younie said he hoped all flooded roads in western Iowa would be open by winter, but officials were still unable to completely assess damage.(Editing by James B.

Candles flicker, mourners drum for dead in Japan tsunami town Reuters By Yoko Kubota – Fri Aug 12, 9:29 am ET

KESENNUMA, Japan (Reuters) – Children in a tsunami-devastated town in northeast Japan lit 10,000 candles and banged taiko drums Friday on the eve of "obon," a Buddhist ceremony to honor the dead, as residents struggle to rebuild lives five months after the disaster.Kesennuma, a scenic fishing town some 400 km (248 miles) northeast of Tokyo, was engulfed by fire after it was struck by a magnitude 9.0 quake and a huge tsunami on March 11. The disaster left more than 20,400 dead or missing in Japan, and triggered the world's worst nuclear crisis in 25 years at Fukushima.In Kesennuma, about 1,000 out of 73,500 residents died and more than 400 are missing, presumed dead. While police still search, some survivors who lost their loved ones or have waited for their return are now trying to move on.Sadness is sadness. But it is an emotion that people should not hang on to forever, said Kanji Hatakeyama, a city official who also lost his home to the tsunami, as he watched kids play traditional songs on Japanese drums at a summer festival.Over the last month, the pages of a local newspaper were filled with death notices, and many funerals for the missing were held as residents sought emotional closure before obon in mid-August, when families welcome back the spirits of the dead.Obon is celebrated every year, but residents say this year's event is different as Kesennuma copes with losses, and works to rebuild.The town has worked to clear the heaps of mud and rubble that covered much of its coastal areas, once famous for bonito and tuna fishing. Much has been removed, though piles of burned cars and debris still remain, now home to crows and flies.Takehiko Sugawara, a 42-year-old temporary city official who lost his job at a fishery destroyed by the tsunami and was helping to decontaminate ground among the debris, said he was too busy to get emotional.It is obon time, but we don't have things ready. We have so much to do and I don't have a moment to feel sad, said Sugawara, adding he feels he has not been able to honor properly his parents, who were washed away by the tsunami.

MOVING FORWARD

I am sorry for my parents, but I have a child and I need to move forward. I want to tell them to please wait a little bit more ... I am doing the best in the way that I can,added Sugawara, unable to hold back tears as he spoke of his mother.Nearly 13,000 houses were damaged and about 1,500 evacuees are still in shelters waiting for temporary housing. The city plans to deliver its reconstruction plan by end-September, though some residents complained that it has been too slow.I have been waiting for five months and my stress and blood pressure levels rose, said 71-year-old widower Kuniko Ito, who was talking with her friends at an evacuation shelter in the gym of a hilltop elementary school.(Moving to temporary housing) would help me reach a kind of a closure, but I will also feel lonely once I'm living alone,Ito said, adding she hopes her ancestors will understand that she will have to pray from the shelter this obon season.As evacuees chatted inside, a festival to encourage rebuilding and to commemorate the dead went on in the playground.At dusk, volunteers lit 10,000 candles, etching in flames the Japanese word for prayer and a the outline of a ship carrying a four-leaf clover.They are lined up in a really beautiful way. I feel very happy,said 8-year-old Airi Ohara, who ran away from the tsunami with her schoolmates.Residents said their town had hit rock bottom, but their duty was to give hope for future generations.I repeatedly thought of leaving this town, but I felt like it would all end if I run away. I will do as much as I can and see how things go, said Sugawara.(Editing by Linda Sieg and Daniel Magnowski)

USDA Lowered Crop Projections Will Mean Higher Food Prices ContributorNetwork Tammy Lee Morris – Fri Aug 12, 4:41 pm ET

COMMENTARY | The United States Department of Agriculture has adjusted projections for this year's grain crops, lowering forecasts due to weather losses. What could this mean for the average consumer?The average consumer will probably need to dig deeper into their pocketbooks when they shop for food items that contain corn, wheat and soybeans. Regular food items will be affected as well as animal foods that contain such grains.In February, the USDA projected that a lower corn surplus would be seen at the end of the year and would result in higher prices. Today, The Wall Street Journal reported that the agency has reduced the forecast levels of the three grains due to adverse weather conditions during the spring and summer planting and growing seasons.Spiking food prices at local stores will only add to stretched budgets and increase concerns about the current state of the economy in the U.S.As a single, working mom myself, the thought of increased prices does cause me concern. I already stretch every penny I make. I have pets so not only will I pay more for food to feed my family, I will also pay more to feed the dogs and cats that we love and enjoy.I understand that prices of crops are affected by weather and circumstances beyond the control of any governmental agency or farmer, but it is still disheartening to know that most of the things I need to buy for my family will be increasing in price.

As it stands now, my budget is already tight. I will of course make adjustments but ultimately, I will have no choice but to choose to do without items that no longer fit within my budget. While my family did plant a garden this year, that garden was also affected by the spring and summer rains and July heat. Currently, my family is freezing and storing as much of our corn crop as we are able to. Regardless, the higher prices at the stores will hit my pocketbook just like everyone else's. Hopefully, though, the prices will jump later rather than soon--allowing me and other consumers time to save up our pennies and take advantage of any bargain prices we might find right now.

Europe short-selling ban reveals divisions
Reuters By James Regan and Ian Simpson | Reuters – AUG 13,11

PARIS/MILAN (Reuters) - A piecemeal ban on short-selling of financial stocks in Europe sparked a rush of alternative proposals from countries and regulators Friday, while stronger bank shares pulled Europe's stocks higher.After a week of wild swings on European markets on rumors about the health and funding needs of indebted governments and some of their major banks, France, Italy, Spain and Belgium imposed short-selling bans, which varied according to country.Britain, the Netherlands and Austria said they saw no need for action, while Germany said it would instead push for a Europe-wide ban on so-called naked short-selling.The European Commission said a European framework would be more effective, and the chairman of the European Securities and Markets Authority urged policy makers to adopt a plan for bloc-wide rules on short selling as quickly as possible.Short-selling is the process through which an investor borrows shares and sells them on the expectation their price will fall and they can be bought back at a lower price.In a naked short sale, the investor has not borrowed the share, but still bets on a drop in the share price.

Market players said the ban did not tackle the root causes of investors' concerns -- joined-up, long-term fiscal policy in the euro zone - and pointed out that nervous mutual funds were currently behind the sell-off.If at the core of this whole rout is disappointment with certain irresponsible behaviors of policymakers -- note the game of chicken in the U.S. -- they really need to get their act together and prove they aren't all on holiday, said Lothar Mental, chief investment officer at Octopus Investments.A crackdown on speculative short-selling is unlikely to arrest moves from institutional investors who now have little stomach for big holdings in banks and indebted governments who might call on them again for emergency capital.The STOXX Europe 600 banking index rose 4.5 percent, helping the broader market up 3.7 percent.French banks, at the center of attention and included in the ban on short-selling, were up: Societe Generale rose 5.7 percent, BNP Paribas added 4.2 percent and Credit Agricole gained 2.1 percent.Alessandro Frigerio, fund manager at Milan's RMJ Sgr, said the ban could work if, combined with proposals from next Tuesday's meeting of French President Nicholas Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, it were to give the idea that there could be a rescue for the euro zone.But global hedge fund association the Alternative Investment Management Association warned the short-selling bans could make markets less stable.Past experience has shown that bans on short selling do not prevent market falls and indeed can exacerbate volatility,association CEO Andrew Baker said in a statement.Short-selling ... contributes to efficient price discovery, increases market liquidity, facilitates hedging and other risk management activities and can possibly help mitigate market bubbles,he said.

U.S. TRADES SOMETIMES POSSIBLE

Investors can sometimes avoid the ban by trading some on other markets -- U.S. listed shares of European institutions that cannot be sold short there can still be shorted in the United States, a New York Stock Exchange spokesman said.That includes Spain's Banco Santander SA, whose ADRs are traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board, or Pink Sheets, and can be sold short, a spokesman for OTCBB said.But the largest European banks in question, including Societe Generale, are not listed on major U.S. exchanges such as the NYSE and Nasdaq.It's only in those countries where the short-selling is no longer being allowed, where you might see increased relative short-selling of the ADR,said Bryant Evans, investment adviser and portfolio manager at Cozad Asset Management, in Champaign, Illinois.

ABUSIVE STRATEGY

A German banking source familiar with regulation issues said the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) had failed to play its role as coordinator among EU countries when it introduced the ban, arguing that short-selling combined with rumor-mongering to create a strategy that was clearly abusive.EMSA chairman Steven Maijoor said there were no concrete plans at this stage for other countries, but he could not rule out the possibility that that could change.What kind of coordination has the ESMA delivered? Not much, the German source said, describing Britain as the main obstacle to a coordinated move against short-sellers due to fears such a ban would hurt its financial sector.Britain temporarily banned short-selling of financial stocks in 2008, in line with a U.S. ban imposed four days after the collapse of Lehman Brothers ushered in a dangerous new phase of the financial crisis.Academic studies show U.S. share borrowing fell during the three-week ban, but financial stocks continued to plummet.In the latest action, France banned short-selling on 11 financial stocks for 15 days, Spain said it would protect 16 stocks for 15 days, Belgium banned short-selling of four financial stocks for an indefinite period and Italy said its ban covered 29 companies in the banking and insurance sector.

French Finance Minister Francois Baroin welcomed the ban and said it highlighted the government's commitment to ensuring financial stability, avoiding market abuses and fighting against all forms of speculation.French 10-year bond yields dipped below 3 percent on Friday for the first time since November, showing demand for French debt remained intact despite banking sector concerns.Reassuring data from the European Central Bank helped: the ECB said its overnight loan facility totaled 227 million euros, down from the 4 billion euros borrowed the previous night, easing fears that banks were facing liquidity issues.However, Danish Economics Minister Brian Mikkelsen said several small Danish banks are facing a liquidity squeeze and the government was working on measures to make it safe for foreign investors to lend to them.France and Italy also plan action against investors who combined rumor-mongering and short-selling to manipulate banking shares. The French Banking Federation said French banks were considering legal action, while Italy's Consob said it would fine those who disregarded the short-selling ban.Germany called for wide-reaching ban on naked short-selling.We are advocating a wide-reaching ban on naked short-selling of stocks, sovereign bonds, and credit default swaps, Finance Ministry spokesman Martin Kotthaus said.Only this way can destructive speculation be countered convincingly.(Writing by Sophie Walker and Janet Guttsman; Additional reporting by Ashley Lau, Sarah Young, Sinead Cruise, Laurence Fletcher, Stephen Jewkes, Valentina Za, Judy MacInnes, Feliciano Tisera, Brian Love, Claire Watson, Nicolas Vinocur, Julien Ponthus, Gernot Heller and Brian Rohan; Editing by Alexander Smith and Gunna Dickson)

China may be worst protectionist ever: U.S. analyst
Reuters By Doug Palmer | Reuters – AUG 12,11

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - China's massive intervention in currency markets could qualify it as the most protectionist nation in history, a leading U.S. economist said on Friday.China has intervened massively in the foreign exchange markets for at least five years, buying at least $1 billion every day to keep the dollar strong and its own renminbi weak, Fred Bergsten, president of the Peterson Institute for International Economics, said in the text of a speech.This is by far the largest protectionist measure adopted by any country since the Second World War -- and probably in all of history, Bergsten said.Bergsten estimated the China's renminbi, also known as the yuan, is currently undervalued by at least 20 percent against the U.S. dollar as a result of China's currency intervention.That is the equivalent of a subsidy of 20 percent on all China's exports and an additional tariff of 20 percent on all China's imports, Bergsten said.Bergsten, who served in various White House and Treasury positions between 1969 and 1981, has long been a critic of China's exchange rate policies.His latest broadside comes amid signs Beijing could let the yuan rise more rapidly to contain inflation.Meanwhile, U.S. government data on Thursday showed the bilateral trade deficit with China grew nearly 12 percent in the first half of 2011 to $133.4 billion, which could stir Congress to act on currency concerns.Bergsten again urged the U.S. Treasury Department to formally label China a currency manipulator, something it has refused to do five times under President Barack Obama.

Treasury's next semi-annual report on the foreign exchange trading practices is due on Oct 15. Labeling China a currency manipulator would require the department to launch negotiations with Beijing to remedy the situation.Bergsten also suggested other U.S. policy responses, such as filing a case at the World Trade Organization against China for currency manipulation and then sharply limiting its access to the U.S. market if the case prevailed.Or we could initiate countervailing currency intervention,buying Chinese renminbi to offset the effect on our exchange rate of their massive purchases of dollars,Bergsten said.(Reporting by Doug Palmer; Editing by Andrea Ricci)

Israel army plants new mines along Syria border
AP - AUG 13,11

JERUSALEM (AP) — An Israeli army magazine says the military is planting new land mines along the border with Syria to dissuade protesters from rushing into the Golan Heights.The army decided to go ahead with the move after older mines failed to detonate when Syrian demonstrators rushed into the border area in June during a protest against Israel's occupation. Israeli forces opened fire, killing some 20 protesters in efforts to push the crowd back.The mines are also part of beefed-up measures Israel is taking ahead of rallies that Palestinians are planning to hold in September.The demonstrations are meant to boost the Palestinian drive for a U.N. recognition of their state. Israel fears such protests along its borders could turn violent.

Syrians call for Assad's death; 14 killed AP By BASSEM MROUE - Associated Press,ELIZABETH A. KENNEDY - Associated Press | AUG 12,11

BEIRUT (AP) — Tens of thousands of Syrian protesters shouted for President Bashar Assad's death Friday in a dramatic escalation of their rage and frustration, defying bullets and rooftop snipers after more than a week of intensified military assaults on rebellious cities, activists and witnesses said.Security forces killed at least 14 protesters, according to human rights groups.The calls for Assad's execution were a stark sign of how much the protest movement has changed since it erupted in March seeking minor reforms but making no calls for regime change. The protests grew dramatically over the five months that followed, driven in part by anger over the government's bloody crackdown in which rights groups say at least 1,700 civilians have been killed.But with the regime shrugging off even the most blistering condemnation, the uprising has become a test of endurance as both sides draw on a deep well of energy and conviction. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday urged countries to stop buying Syrian oil and gas or selling the regime weapons, saying those who still do so must get on the right side of history.In cities around Syria, protesters chanted, The people want to execute the president! during the now-familiar cycle of weekly demonstrations followed by a swift crackdown by the military, security forces and pro-government gunmen who operate on the regime's behalf.Security forces broke up protests quickly around the capital Damascus, in the central city of Homs and elsewhere, firing bullets and tear gas. Some areas saw only limited demonstrations because soldiers deployed heavily in restive areas.In a significant show of defiance, some of the largest protests Friday were on the outskirts of the central city of Hama and in the eastern city of Deir el-Zour, where government forces seized control in major military offensives during the past week. The fact that protesters still turned out was a signal that Assad's forces cannot terrify protesters into staying home.

However, within Hama, protesters struggled to turn out in great numbers after soldiers clamped down heavily in the streets, witnesses said. Snipers were stationed on rooftops, and troops surrounded mosques and set up checkpoints to head off any marches.There are security checkpoints every 200 meters (655 feet), they have lists and they're searching people ... the mosques are surrounded by soldiers, a Hama-based activist told The Associated Press by telephone, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.Dozens of soldiers deployed in Hama's Assi Square, which had been the main converging point for hundreds of thousands of protesters in previous weeks, the activist said.In the central city of Homs, more than a 1,000 soldiers, security agents and plainclothes policemen were deployed in the city's main square.At least 14 protesters were killed across the country: Five outside the capital, Damascus; one in Homs and two in Hama; Four in the major northern city Aleppo; one in Deir el-Zour; and one in eastern Idlib province, according to multiple activist groups. Military raids earlier in the day killed at least two people.Where are the prisoners, Bashar? Free the prisoners, Bashar! shouted protesters in the Mediterranean coastal city of Latakia, shown in amateur video posted by activists. Another video showed a crowd outside a mosque in the southern city of Daraa hit by clouds of tear gas after they chanted for the downfall of the regime.The Associated Press could not verify the videos. Syria has banned most foreign media and restricted local coverage, making it impossible to get independent confirmation of the events on the ground.The government has justified its crackdown by saying it was dealing with terrorist gangs and criminals who were fomenting unrest.

The military offensive reflects Assad's determination to crush the uprising against his rule despite mounting international condemnation, including U.S. and European sanctions.A flurry of foreign diplomats have rolled through Damascus urging Assad to end a campaign of killing that rights groups say has killed more than 1,700 civilians and several hundred members of the security forces since mid-March.We believe that President Assad's opportunity to lead the transition has passed, Jay Carney, spokesman for President Barak Obama, told reporters traveling on Air Force One on Thursday.But the U.S. and other nations have little power to threaten further isolation or economic punishment of Assad's pro-Iranian regime — unlike in Egypt, where Obama was able to help usher longtime ally Hosni Mubarak out of power.On Friday, the Dutch Foreign Ministry said the European Union may decide in the next week or two to broaden its sanctions against the Syrian regime and state-run businesses.Foreign Minister Uri Rosenthal has been lobbying his colleagues to expand the EU travel ban on Syrian officials — which now covers 35 people, including Assad — and to target Syria's telecommunications, banking and energy sectors. Syria gets about 28 percent of its revenue from the oil trade.We need to cut off the oxygen from the regime through its profitable public enterprises, Rosenthal said on the ministry's Web site.But the bloody crackdown has continued, along with a nationwide campaign of arrests.Security forces on Thursday detained Abdul-Karim Rihawi, the Damascus-based head of the Syrian Human Rights League, activists said. A longtime rights activist, Rihawi had been tracking government violations and documenting deaths in Syria.He was picked up from a cafe in central Damascus along with a journalist who had been interviewing him, according to rights activist Ammar Qurabi.Italy and France on Friday condemned the arrest and called for his immediate release.By its brutal and symbolic character, the arrest of Abdul-Karim Rihawi constitutes a new unacceptable decision by the authorities of Damascus, a French Foreign Ministry statement said.The Syrian uprising was inspired by the revolts and calls for reform sweeping the Arab world, and activists and rights groups say most of those killed have been unarmed civilians. An aggressive new military offensive that began with the Muslim holy month of Ramadan at the start of August has killed several hundred people in just one week.AP writer Zeina Karam contributed to this report.

Israel deploys drones over offshore gas fields
AFP – Mon, Aug 8, 2011

Israel has deployed drones to keep watch on gas fields off its northern coast, fearing attack by the Hezbollah militia from neighbouring Lebanon, the Jerusalem Post daily reported on Tuesday.The fields lie in a part of the Mediterranean that is claimed by Israel for gas exploration and production, but Lebanon says the fields lie within its territorial waters.The decision to deploy drones was made in order to maintain a 24-hour presence over the site, the paper said, adding that the air force was equipped with the locally made Heron drone, which has special electro-optics designed for maritime work.The Israeli military would not confirm or deny the Post report to AFP.The paper said that the air force started aerial surveillance after a warning last month from Hezbollah, which in 2006 fought a deadly war with the Jewish state in which it used anti-ship missiles.The Israeli enemy cannot drill a single metre in these waters to search for gas and oil if the zone is disputed... No company can carry out prospecting work in waters whose sovereignty is contested, the Shiite group said.

The Hezbollah threat came after Israel's cabinet approved a map of the country's proposed maritime borders with Lebanon and submitted it to the United Nations, which has been asked to mediate in the dispute.The map conflicts with one submitted by Lebanon to the UN last year, which gives Israel less territory.The two countries are technically at war and will not negotiate face to face.The disputed zone consists of about 854 square kilometres (330 square miles).The two biggest known offshore fields, Tamar and Leviathan, lie respectively about 80 kilometres (50 miles) and 130 kilometres (81 miles) off Israel's northern city of Haifa.Tamar is believed to hold at least 8.4 trillion cubic feet of gas (238 billion cubic metres), while Leviathan is believed to have reserves of 16 trillion cubic feet (450 billion cubic metres).In June an Israeli company announced the discovery of two new natural gas fields, Sarah and Mira, around 70 kilometres (45 miles) off the city of Hadera further south.

Rape, mutilation: Pakistan's tribal justice for women
Reuters By Rebecca Conway | Reuters – AUG 12,11

MULTAN, Pakistan (Reuters) - On April 14, two men entered Asma Firdous' home, cut off six of her fingers, slashed her arms and lips and then sliced off her nose. Before leaving the house, the men locked their 28-year-old victim inside.Asma, from impoverished Kohaur Junobi village in Pakistan's south, was mutilated because her husband was involved in a dispute with his relatives, and they wanted revenge.Her fate is familiar in parts of Pakistan's remote and feudal agricultural belts, where women are often used as bargaining chips in family feuds, and where the level of violence they face is increasing in frequency and brutality.At the hospital in nearby Multan town, Asma's shocked parents sat quietly by her bedside and struggled to explain what the future holds for their now disfigured daughter.I don't know what will happen to her when she leaves here, Asma's father, Ghulam Mustafa, said, in a dilapidated ward heavy with the smell of antiseptic and blood, where other women, doused with acid or kerosene by relatives or fellow villagers, awaiting an equally uncertain future.Asked if Asma will return to her husband, her father remains silent.

Pakistan is the world's third-most dangerous country for women, after Afghanistan and the Democratic Republic of Congo, based on a survey conducted by the Thomson Reuters Foundation (http://link.reuters.com/jet92s)In its 2010 report, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan says almost 800 women were victims of honor killings -- murders aimed at preserving the honor of male relatives -- and 2,900 women reported raped -- almost eight a day.The bulk, or almost 2,600, were raped in Punjab alone, Pakistan's most populous province.And the numbers are rising: media reports say crimes against women have risen 18 percent in the year to May and the human rights commission believes its figures represent only a fraction of the attacks which take place across the country.Dr. Farzana Bari, director of Gender Studies at Quaid-e-Azam University, says Pakistan's patriarchal society often condones discrimination against women, which is more prevalent among poor and uneducated rural families.That mindset can often influence the police and judiciary, which sometimes turn a blind eye to honor killings or rapes carried out to punish women.I think honor killings are a symptom of vigilante justice, she said.And vigilante justice occurs in an environment where the state is unable to enforce its writ.

TRIBAL JUSTICE

In rural areas, women are often shut out of the justice system, which is compromised by powerful landowners and feudal lords who dominate a hierarchy that makes it difficult -- and deadly -- for those with little education or social standing to speak out.Families or tribes then often take justice in their own hands, presiding over jirgas or panchayats -- gatherings of elders that hand down punishments that include rape, killing or barter of women for crimes that include falling in love with a man deemed inappropriate or besmirching family honor.Some women are maimed just to settle scores.Members of the panchayat systems say the tradition is hard to shake because it is entrenched in the local culture and also because it is much more efficient than the regular courts.In the settled areas there are courts but people can't always get justice or compensation, said lawyer and tribal elder Karim Masoud, who presides over both panchayat settlements and the mainstream court system.With the jirgas, they can get compensation, and it takes less time to settle a dispute. It's fairer and people don't have to use bribes to get justice.Zarmuhamad Afridi, who also attends jirga rulings in Pakistan's northern tribal belt and works within the mainstream court system, said the jirga system survives because in many parts of Pakistan, a man's honor is intrinsically linked to how his wife or daughter behave.

If a couple is not married and they are having a relationship, a jirga may rule that the woman should be shot, Afridi said.That is okay for many, because they have to protect family honor.The slightest transgression by a woman -- being seen talking to a man on the street, perhaps, or having an unknown phone number in a mobile -- can bring harsh punishment and social ostracism of the family, he says, making the quick, harsh judgment of the panchayats popular.Women are cherished here, he said. Men protect them. If a woman is out of her house then what is she doing? That is what people think here.Many women are unable to speak out because they lack the support and education to understand their rights, activists say.But even those who dare often get nowhere.The most high profile instance of a violent ruling by a tribal court against a woman is that of the gang rape of Mukhtaran Mai, which took place near Multan in 2002.Mai was allegedly attacked to settle a matter of village honor, as decided by a panchayat. She was then paraded naked through her village.
Unlike most rape victims, who face stark recriminations for speaking out, and who are sometimes even expected to commit suicide, she filed a criminal case against 14 men.Six men were convicted and sentenced to death that year, but in 2005 the Lahore High Court commuted one sentence to life in prison and acquitted the rest.Pakistan's Supreme Court upheld that decision in April this year, in what rights activists said was a crushing blow to women's and minority rights in Pakistan.The men were released days later. Mai said she is afraid they will return and kill her.Ali Dayan Hasan, senior researcher at Human Rights Watch's South Asia division, said the lack of justice for women in cases like such as Mai's is a structural failing of the criminal justice system.The verdict also lays bare the misogyny of Pakistan's judicial system because it is a judiciary that is instinctively unsympathetic to women.(Editing by Chris Allbritton and Miral Fahmy)

Clinton Calls on Countries to Stop Doing Business with Syria-U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton calls on countries to stop buying Syrian oil and gas. by Elad Benari, Canada Published: 13/08/11, 12:28 AM

The United States on Friday called on countries to stop buying Syrian oil and gas in an attempt to build pressure on Syrian President Bashar Assad to end a brutal crackdown against protesters.Reuters reported that U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton hinted the government might be making some headway in persuading countries in Europe, as well as China and India, to curtail their energy ties with Syria.
Speaking at a news conference with Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere, Clinton stopped short of explicitly calling for Assad’s departure, saying, We urge those countries still buying Syrian oil and gas, those countries still sending Assad weapons, those countries whose political and economic support give him comfort in his brutality, to get on the right side of history.She added,President Assad has lost the legitimacy to lead and it is clear that Syria would be better off without him.Speaking on condition of anonymity, U.S. officials told Reuters it was the first time Washington had explicitly called for a boycott of Syrian oil since anti-Assad protests erupted in March.Syria’s crude oil production numbers 380,000 barrels a day and generates most of the country’s hard currency. Reuters reported Syrian crude exports go mostly to European nations such as Germany, Italy and France.

Clinton’s comments come after on Thursday she said the United States wants other nations to add their voices to the call for Assad to step down.Meanwhile, the violence in Syria continued on Friday, as Syrian forces shot dead 13 protesters following the prayers for the second Friday of the Ramadan.Tens of thousands of protesters hit the streets of Hama and Deir al-Zor, demanding the overthrow of Assad.
Activists said six people were killed in the Damascus suburbs of Saqba and Douma, two in the commercial hub of Aleppo, and two in the northern province of Idlib on the Turkish border.(Arutz Sheva’s North American Desk is keeping you updated until the start of Shabbat in New York.

China sends anti-terrorism unit to restive west
AP By SCOTT McDONALD - Associated Press | AP – AUG 13,11

BEIJING (AP) — China has sent its elite Snow Leopard anti-terrorism unit to its far western frontier where ethnic violence has flared, hoping to boost security before the area stages an international trade convention in weeks, a state newspaper reported Sunday.At least 20 people died in two attacks last month in the southern Xinjiang region, where security had already been tight since 2009 fighting between majority Han Chinese and minority ethnic Uighurs (pronounced WEE'-gur), who are Muslim and share other cultural links with groups in Central Asia.The government has blamed Muslim extremists for the July attacks and violent protests in Kashgar, where 80 percent of the 600,000 population are Uighurs, and in another southern Xinjiang city, Hotan.Recently it sent its elite Snow Leopard Commando unit to patrol the region from a base in Aksu city, roughly halfway between Kashgar and the regional capital of Urumqi, the China Daily said, quoting a spokesman for the Xinjiang People's Armed Police.Calls to the Xinjiang government and police were not answered Saturday.The Snow Leopards, formed in 2002, were charged with securing the 2008 Beijing Olympics and have a mandate to combat terrorism, control riots, dispose of bombs, respond to hijackings and carry out other special tasks, the newspaper said.

Xinjiang is China's Central Asian frontier — bordering Pakistan, Afghanistan, Russia and other countries — with Kashgar serving as an important hub along the ancient Silk Road trade route to Europe.The Snow Leopard unit will be increasing security for the China-Eurasia Expo, being held in Urumqi the first week in September.China has blamed the region's unrest on forces outside the country, and said last month's attacks were carried out by militants trained in camps run by the East Turkistan Islamic Movement in Pakistan on Xinjiang's southern border. It has given no evidence for the allegation.Many Uighurs in the area resent the Han Chinese majority as interlopers relegating them to minority status in their homeland.China defends its treatment of minorities, saying all ethnic groups are treated equally and that tens of billions of dollars in investment and aid have dramatically raised their living standards.

Dr. Alan Keyes on Obama’s SSN, background
August 12, 2011 By DOUG HAGMANN

It would appear that the only people actually questioning the legitimate problems and anomalies surrounding Obama’s background, from the his Certification of Live Birth to his potentially fraudulently obtained social security number, are those who are currently outside of government and corporate media. Watch this interview of Dr. Alan Keyes, a former US ambassador and presidential candidate discuss the identity issues plaguing Barack Hussein Obama and the lack of respect of our constitution by our current political leaders and of course, the corporate media.

Electronic skin tattoo has medical, gaming, spy uses
Aug 11 03:43 PM US/Eastern AFP

A hair-thin electronic patch that adheres to the skin like a temporary tattoo could transform medical sensing, computer gaming and even spy operations, according to a US study published Thursday.The micro-electronics technology, called an epidermal electronic system (EES), was developed by an international team of researchers from the United States, China and Singapore, and is described in the journal Science.It's a technology that blurs the distinction between electronics and biology, said co-author John Rogers, a professor in materials science and engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.Our goal was to develop an electronic technology that could integrate with the skin in a way that is mechanically and physiologically invisible to the user.The patch could be used instead of bulky electrodes to monitor brain, heart and muscle tissue activity and when placed on the throat it allowed users to operate a voice-activated video game with better than 90 percent accuracy.This type of device might provide utility for those who suffer from certain diseases of the larynx, said Rogers.It could also form the basis of a sub-vocal communication capability, suitable for covert or other uses.The wireless device is nearly weightless and requires so little power it can fuel itself with miniature solar collectors or by picking up stray or transmitted electromagnetic radiation, the study said.

Less than 50-microns thick -- slightly thinner than a human hair -- the devices are able to adhere to the skin without glue or sticky material.Forces called van der Waals interactions dominate the adhesion at the molecular level, so the electronic tattoos adhere to the skin without any glues and stay in place for hours, said the study.Northwestern University engineer Yonggang Huang said the patch was as soft as the human skin.Rogers and Huang have been working together on the technology for the past six years. They have already designed flexible electronics for hemispherical camera sensors and are now focused on adding battery power and other energy options.
The devices might find future uses in patients with sleep apnea, babies who need neonatal care and for making electronic bandages to help skin heal from wounds and burns.

Obama’s ineligibility: Prepare to defend America - Take down Obama and the rogue government - Lawrence Sellin Thursday, August 11, 2011

imageIf wanting to uphold the Constitution, restore the rule of law and save our country from destruction is now considered terrorism or even treason; then count me among the guilty.When a government stops listening to the voice of the people; then count them among the tyrants that patriotic Americans have always stood against.
Deceitful and arrogant political leadership has made the entire federal government culpable of obstruction of justice and dereliction of duty.Ignoring our Constitutional crisis and the endemic corruption of the political establishment will, without a doubt, lead to the end of the United States.There is no doubt that Barack Hussein Obama was illegally elected to the Presidency according to Article II, Section I, Clause 5 of the Constitution and the Supreme Court binding precedent of Minor and Happersett.There is no doubt that he committed felonies by forging birth documents and his Selective Service registration and has been illegally using a Social Security Number.Finally, and most critically, there is no doubt that Obama does not want the United States to survive.There is also no doubt that the political establishment, both Democrats and Republicans, have aided and abetted the Obama agenda by not challenging his Constitutional eligibility or providing vigorous opposition to his

destructive policies.

America is well down the road to national suicide.

As Larry Klayman, the founder of Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, stated:All of these entrenched Washington establishment politicians sold the country out in the last weeks when they agreed to a phony deficit reduction package, which they crowed about for days as if they had accomplished a Godly feat, only to see that Standard and Poors and the financial markets saw through their deceitful and traitorous charade. Now the nation is in a downward nosedive, with disastrous ramifications not only for us but the world.It is time to take the gloves off. Waiting until the 2012 election is no longer an option.Obama is a usurper and a criminal. He must be removed from office.The Congress is hopelessly corrupt and incompetent. They must be replaced.Patriotic Americans must protest and begin acts of civil disobedience, which may be our last best effort to prevent the violence seen in Great Britain from happening in the United States.There will be a Pitchfork Rally at 10 AM on August 15, 2011 at the steps of the Georgia state capital to support Georgia’s Presidential Eligibility Assurance Act to ensure that the usurper Obama cannot run for President in 2012.Larry Klayman has announced Assault on Washington - call for civil disobedience to remove Democrat and Republican leaders to be held week of September 17, 2011 - Constitution Day in Washington, D.C. to rid our nation of the Democrat and Republican self serving political leaders who are in the process of destroying our nation, before it is too late.

Klayman calls for:a peaceful Assault on Washington, to make it known to our nation’s politicians and so called leaders that their days are over and that they should resign or face other strong peaceful action by We the People. These leaders include, but are not limited to, President Barack Obama, his Treasury Secretary Timothy Geitner, Speaker of the House John Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.Our country is disintegrating around us. Our political elite ignore the Constitution, tolerate an illegal and criminal President and have engineered a Saul Alinsky / Cloward & Piven financial crisis, which will collapse our economy.We will no longer accept their lies, their incompetence, their arrogance, their cowardice and their corruption.Our country has been blessed by God. It is now our duty to preserve it.George Washington wrote:No country upon earth ever had it more in its power to attain these blessings than United America. Wondrously strange, then, and much to be regretted indeed would it be, were we to neglect the means and to depart from the road which Providence has pointed us to so plainly; I cannot believe it will ever come to pass.The Founding Fathers gave us a republic. Can we muster the courage to keep it?

Hold the light of national anger high but don’t play into Obama’s hands By LAURIE ROTH on August 11th, 2011

My email box has been flooded with what reveals to be a growth in national rage and attempts to do something to get our country back. I have read of the upcoming Birther summit, launched by concerned citizen Dean Haskins. Lots of folks are signing up for this in Washington D.C. on March 11, 2012. It will showcase many speakers and national leaders most concerned about the eligibility of our President, Barack Hussein Obama. It is great to see more and more people wake up to this living nightmare, mostly ignored by our sold out and cowardly media. Few have had anything at all to say in the House, Senate, those running for Presidential nominations and our media about the forgery of a birth certificate showed to the American people and the world on April 27th 2011. The people are increasingly awake on this issue. I have been screaming about this on air and in print for years!There is another bold plan of action thrown out to the people by Larry Klayman www.larryklayman.com. He is calling on peaceful, civil disobedience to remove democrat and republican leaders on September 17, 2011. These include President Obama, House Speaker John Boehner, Majority leader Eric Canter, Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Klayman states:All political persuasions must now unite for the good of nation, go to Washington and,Ghandi style, use civil disobedience to have them removed. They cannot be removed through impeachment, since the establishment, right, left and center, will protect itself. Short of violent revolt, which I do not advocate, this is the only means to disinfest our nation of these leaders who are taking the nation down the primrose path of destruction. We cannot wait until the 2012 elections, as time is short as the nation sinks further into an abyss. I therefore call for all concerned Americans to join the Assault on Washington beginning on September 17, 2011, and throughout the week. Fittingly, this is Constitution Week! Further announcements will be made to organize this.Pollster Pat Caddell has commented that the national attitude has been growing in rage and is even pre revolutionary.Also, just yesterday on my radio show www.therothshow.com, Frank Salvato of www.newmediajournal.us reminded us that the Tea Party conservatives out number liberal progressives, two to one and are growing. It is not surprising that Axelrod, Senator Kerry, Howard Dean along with other Obama worshippers blame the Tea Party for the historical downgrade in credit and the related stock market crash the last several days. That not only does not pass the laugh test but is like saying that the Firefighters are to blame for requiring that folks leave the burning building so they can save lives! I pray that America has finally awakened to the Chicago style politics and Rules for Radicals blame fest that Obama and the progressives use. It will only get worse between now and 2012.My gut level concern and warning to all involved in any civil disobedience, marches, protests and Tea Party events: Make sure you remind and train your people and participants who you are dealing with and ways to protect your events. Expect plants and those who will set you up to appear as racists, violent law breakers and dangers to the country. Have cell phone cameras everywhere and take tons of pictures and video. Have volunteer security everywhere as well for all your sakes.As anger builds and more events are planned, know that you all will be in Obama and the progressive cross hairs. He needs to create and build enemies. DON’T GIVE HIM ANY VIOLENCE OR LAW BREAKING BEHAVIOR TO WORK WITH AT ALL! Cover your backsides with cameras, videos and security everywhere. There will be plants.

Along with civil disobedience what else can we do? The Mid Term elections started the unseating of Progressive leftists in power, now I predict the 2012 election will take it all the way home and start the bold healing of our country. Larry Klayman is a great patriot but I disagree with him that the 2012 elections are too late. Yes, we must do what we can to speak the real issues now and make a stand where we can, but also, we as a country ALL must vote this time, not just 60% of us. We must vote for real people who will actually put our country back on track and lead. Right now, the battle lines are being drawn and we are finding out over the next few months who will be taking on Obama and winning. Vote your conscience and tell ten friends to do the same. I am running as an outsider with a real love and vision for my country www.laurieroth2012.com. Let’s bring in a peaceful revolution. Join the Roth revolution at www.therothshow.com. I can do this with the people’s help.

UK anarchy is the fruit of socialism
- Anna Grayson Friday, August 12, 2011 CANADA FREE PRESS

image(Right in the midst of London chaos, Canada Free Press Columnist Anna Grayson sends warning to Canada and the United States.)London, England—This past week has shook the UK to its core and the usual playbooks have been opened yet again. The media searches for the disadvantaged black youth to parade in front of the cameras, then counters it with the same black disadvantaged youth getting their act together and condemning the violence. The politicians are busily touring the affected areas keen to parade their professional bleeding social hearts in front of the cameras. What this week has shown is the moral failure that results when the political philosophy of socialism imbeds itself into a society.As the courts empty, a new profile of the perpetrators is emerging. The usual suspects of gangs, mindless thugs and opportunists are the majority but how do you explain the real estate agent, the lifeguard, the chef, the postman, the 17-year-old ballerina, the millionaire’s daughter, the 2012 Olympic ambassador or the university grad with a promising career in social work now undermined because of her newly acquired criminal record? They have all swallowed the poison that makes them truly believe we can achieve equality and justice for all at the expense of the rich. Add to this the secularism that socialism relies on to provide its moral base and you have no hope of a properly formed conscience. The false morality of entitlement trumps the immorally of theft when the decision is taken to smash the glass and grab the iphone. The excuses of multiculturalism, class or opportunism all fall apart.

Whether you dress it up as conservative or liberal, the political values and principles in the West, to a lesser or greater degree, are about the state being provider, teacher, parent and entrepreneur. The real tragedy that the riots of London, Vancouver (and just about any G20 you care to name) show, is that for that moment in time the veil is peeled back to reveal the rot of amorality and enslavement to a culture of self-esteem and self-absorption that the West has adopted like the proverbial boiled frog. Socialism relies on pride and self esteem to demand our rights to that which it tells us we are entitled.

The insidiousness of socialism is that is plays to our higher self

The insidiousness of socialism is that is plays to our higher self. It tells us we can be a free society, a good society, willing to look after those in need and value rights. In short socialism is the Utopia we all seek. God and the Judeo Christian moral model that shaped the West, is replaced by the state. What is crucial is that socialism destroys the freedom of the individual. It is against liberty, property and limited government. It is for equality and sameness; rational control by government and the diminishing of freedom and power in the rest of society. The relationship between the state and the individual replaces the relationship between people in families or within civil society. The world view of socialism is materialistic in that is seeks to alleviate everything – poor health, poverty, unfairness of social class or absence of talent by throwing money at it which leaves no room for the free will of the individual.Labour governments have always been disastrous for the UK but in thirteen years of Tony Blair’s New Labour, not only did he manage to politicize every great British institution from the judiciary to the civil service and police, Labour has created massive national debt, a bloated bureaucracy, and an expanded and unfair welfare state with its attendant victim culture. As case in point: figures out this week show the number of young men claiming disability benefit have risen from 1.1 million to 3.2 million since 1992. More than 124,000 males aged between 16 to 24 are claiming up to £125 (US $ 205) per week – a fivefold increase since 1992. A closer look into the figures reveals people with drug and alcohol problems, asthma and ‘unspecified’ back pain are just some of the claims filed. Why work when you can wheeze your way into your state employed doctor’s office and get the rubber stamp to bag an easy pay check for nothing? And it’s probably more than the immigrant builder or fruit picker gets because he costs less to the employers who have to pay huge taxes to keep our disabled in the style they have been accustomed.

Of course there are the truly needy which used to fall to extended families, faith groups and charities to step in and help. But now we only have personal conscience to rely on making the right choice of grabbing at a handout or working hard because you can and it’s the right thing to do. And therein lies the worst aspect of what a socialist mindset does, which is it blinds man to the truth about himself – that there is a natural order, that there must be a mastery of the will to do the right thing, that we are bound by morals and a responsibility to other people – by our own choice and by means that we decide as individuals, not by a government taking your money and doing it all for you so you don’t have to think about anything but yourself and pursuing pleasure.A London police sergeant I spoke to understands this all too well because the Met deals with these thugs all the time. Most of the gangs that went on the rampage are already well known to police. They deal with them every single Saturday night in just about every UK city centre you care to name. They come from welfare backed families with lousy or absent parenting and get thrown in front of magistrate’s courts on a regular basis and back into the streets within days in some cases. As the sergeant puts it’ these feral yobs (hooligans) are well aware of their human rights, but no one has told them about their responsibilities. Taxpayer billions have been spent on youth clubs but the interviews on TV have the masked young men claiming to get on their best trainers and go looking for work with a CV and talk most polite like man and they ain’t noticing me, so this is payback. Just what tells them they are entitled to that job? Socialism fails to understand the truth about human nature. When we speak of truth today in relative terms , i.e. your truth is not my truth, or that it depends on the context or circumstances (a favourite with politicians) then we dilute the ability to understand truth. This leads entire societies to lose a sense of reality. This has happened throughout history. The Nazis took Weimar Germany in 13 short years from a Judeo Christian philosophy into the ability to categorize entire subsections of society as sub-human and act to annihilate them. When you lose a sense of duty and responsibility to other people what happens is that a sense of nihilism creeps in. Nothing matters anymore.Seeing that play out is truly shocking as we saw this week when Asyraf Haziq, a Malaysian student bystander, bleeding from his broken jaw was helped up by two thugs, who then promptly robbed him. Or worse the 68-year-old white male who tried to put out a fire and was bludgeoned to death, or the three Asian youths mowed down and killed by a car driven by black youths. Some commentators have tried to spin this into a race issue, but the magnificent dignity of Tariq Johan, the father of one of the victims, came on our TV screens and pleaded for everyone to come together and stop the madness. It was humbling to watch his exemplary behaviour and plea for young people to stop ruining their lives. Asyraf Haziq demonstrated such an impressive and gentle demeanour of forgiveness, odds are every Brit looking for a holiday will be hot footing it to Malaysia.

Multiculturalism is not the reason for discord in society but the tool for the left to pit people against one another so that they can step in with their egalitarian answers and solutions. Oppressed peoples have traditionally fled to free societies like Canada and the US to escape, but socialism is claiming those cultures as well. Pierre Trudeau’s social engineering program in Canada has now firmly chomped down on the veins of civil society and replaced the flow of the blood of freedom with transfusions of human rights law and bureaucracy . Obama is doing his level best to ensure the same fate for America.In Britain our so called conservative PM David (just call me Dave) Cameron is even now promising the state will do more to support the families and victims of violence. More welfare, more benefits. The rot is so deeply set, that if you try to cut the benefits or don’t create new ones, you lose the votes.Let me end by saying London is a really great place to live. The vast majority of people living here of all races are decent citizens and friendly to boot with great senses of humour. ( We need it!) They labour under heavy taxes and complex and nonsensical liberal regulation that are the fruits of socialism. Maybe this display of anarchy has made them angry enough to try and change the political philosophy behind it but that will be a long and painful road. If you were considering coming to the Olympics next summer and now are not, you can be sure the politicians will spend what it takes to keep the games and London safe. There are so many glorious buildings, museums, restaurants, shops and the richness of British history. Come and spend your tourist dollars here because once the cost of this mess comes to light, we are going to need them.

Abbas Wants US-led NATO Force for PA State-PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas told US lawmakers he wants a US-led NATO force to provide security for the future Palestinian state.by Gavriel Queenann Published: 12/08/11, 1:40 PM

Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas told visiting US Congressmen on Thursday he wants the security of a future PA state to be handed to NATO under US command, the Maan news agency reported Friday.The PA state must also be empty of settlements, Abbas said, according to official Palestinian Authority news agency WAFA.Members of the US Congress and Senate delegation, headed by Democrat Senator Steny Hoyer, met with Abbas in Ramallah on Thursday, and quizzed Abbas on Israel's designation as a Jewish state, the status of refugees, and reconciliation between Abbas' Fatah party and rival Hamas, Presidential adviser Nimir Hamad said. Abbas reiterated the Palestinian Authority's well-known positions on these matters, Hammad added, and specified that security responsibility for the Palestinian Authority would be handled by a third party, suggesting the US-Europe military alliance NATO.

In September 2010, Abbas outlined his government's acceptance of international forces from NATO or similar to the UNIFIL force operating in southern Lebanon playing a role in PA security, as long as forces did not include one single Israeli, whether from the civilian population or the military.Abbas is currently pursuing a unilateral recognition of PA statehood based on pre-1967 lines at the United Nations in September.

Landau: Time to Cancel the Oslo Accords-Minister Uzi Landau calls to cancel absurd Oslo agreements as PA seeks unilateral state. Israel must prepare for September violence.by Maayana Miskin Published: 12/08/11, 1:18 PM

The time has come for Israel to cancel the Oslo Accords, Minister of National Infrastructure Uzi Landau told Arutz Sheva. The absurd accords should be canceled both because of the Palestinian Authority's plan to seek unilateral statehood, and because they are harmful, he said.These agreements were absurd and grave, and did serious damage to Israel's security, he argued.No less importantly, they paved the way to give legitimacy to the existence of a Palestinian people and to the argument that they deserve a state in Judea and Samaria, the cradle of our society. These accords turned the leader of a terrorist gang, Yasser Arafat, into a supposed cultured leader worthy of joining the society of nations,he continued. When Israel gives legitimacy to the PA, the organization that was established with the position that we turned them into poor refugees,it then struggles to present any alternative view, he said.Israel must inform the PA that going to the United Nations to seek recognition of a unilaterally declared PA state will mean an end to any and all agreements reached between Israel and the PA until that point, Landau stated. In addition, They must be informed that [Israel] will declare sovereignty over large territories in the national consensus, like Area C and the settlement blocs, he said.
The reality [created] will be new and different.

PA State - Arab Suffering
If the PA does go to UN, it will win majority support, even if leading democracies are against its plans, Landau said. The PA must realize that if it does go to the UN, the price they will pay will be very high,he said.For example, he said, despite several dry years in a row, PA Arabs remain able to turn on their faucets and be confident that water will come out – a confidence not shared by their neighbors in Syria and elsewhere. If the PA cuts ties with Israel, the lifestyle enjoyed by those under its leadership will sink to meet the level of residents of other Arab states.

Israel Must Prepare for Violence
Despite the PA's public talk of non-violent protests, Israel must prepare for violence, Landau warned. We look at our neighbors and we see what non-violent protests' look like in the Middle East. We will need to defend ourselves, he declared.Anyone who does not appreciate the danger is naive. For them, the distance between going out to protest and pulling a trigger is very short, he added.

EU's Ashton Slams Israeli Construction in Jerusalem-EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton slammed Israel's decision to build 1,600 new units in Jerusalem; more units coming. by Gavriel Queenann Published: 12/08/11, 2:49 PM

European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton on Friday parroted Palestinian Authority officials saying renewed Jersualem construction by Israel was a threat to the two-state solution.Ashton said she deeply regets information of the publicly stated intention of the Israeli government to continue settlement expansion in east Jerusalem,adding that the EU has repeatedly called on Israel to end all settlement activity.Continued construction in the Judea, Samaria, and Jerusalem, Ashton said, threatens the viability of an agreed two-state solution and undermines ongoing efforts to resume negotiations.Arutz Sheva notes: Ashton's comments were in reference to Interior Minister Eli Yishai's appoval Thursday of 1,600 new housing units in Jerusalem's Ramat Shlomo neighborhood, which in fact is northern Jerusalem, between Ramot with 60,000 Jewish residents and the Har Hotzvim Industrial Park. It was empty hills before the reunification of the city in 1967. Ms Ashton would do well to look at a map of the city.Arabs and anti-Zionist media call all areas reunited with Jerusalem in 1967 eastern Jerusalem, giving the impression that the eastern, Arab-populated section that was occupied by Jordan until then is going to have an influx of thousands of Jews that will crowd Arab out.

At the beginning of next week, the Interior Ministry is expecting to give the final approval to two additional projects in Jerusalem – 2,000 housing units in southern Jerusalem's Givat Hamatos, adjacent to Gilo and once used as an absorption center for Ethiopian Jews, and 625 units in Pisgat Ze’ev in northern Jerusalem past French Hill, Yishai’s spokesman Roei Lachmanovich said.Israel, whose government returned to its historic capital of thousands of years since the inception of the modern Jewish state, regards Jerusalem as anything but a settlement and has said it will remain Israel's eternal and undivided capital.

EU once again upset over Israeli settlement expansion
Today AUG 12,11 @ 11:24 By Andrew Rettman

EU foreign relations chief Ashton has noted with deep regret that, once again the Israeli government has ignored her and pressed on with settlement-building in East Jerusalem. Israeli authorities approved 1,600 housing units on occupied Palestinian land. The move comes amid an EU-led bid to restart peace talks.

Four EU states ban short-selling to curb financial turmoil Today AUG 12,11 @ 09:20 By Leigh Phillips

Four EU countries have slapped a temporary ban on short-selling in an effort to dampen down wild swings in trades in banking stocks.Short selling has been blamed for adding to volatility in the financial markets (Donald Townsend)The European Securities and Markets Authority, the bloc’s market supervisor, announced on Thursday (11 August) that Belgium, France, Italy and Spain had made the move, a ban that will last for 15 days.Short selling traders in effect make a bet that certain shares will decline in value. The practice has been blamed for exacerbating volatility in already tumultuous markets.At the height of the financial crisis in 2008, European and American market supervisors made similar moves.Esma itself does not have the power to impose the ban, but can co-ordinate the institution of national bans.The language the authority used in a communique sharply attacked unscrupulous traders it accused of profitting from the spread of false information.

ESMA wants to emphasise ... the prohibition of the dissemination of information which gives, or is likely to give, false or misleading signals as to financial instruments, including the dissemination of rumours and false or misleading news, the authority warned.European competent authorities will take a firm stance against any behaviour that breaches these requirements and ESMA will support national authorities to act swiftly against any such behaviour which is clearly punishable.The authority said that it had been exchanging information with national supervisors over recent weeks and heightened its monitoring of market activity.The ban, which countries such as Germany and the UK failed to embrace, takes effect Friday.Greece imposed a two-month short-selling ban earlier in the week.The news comes as the leaders of France and Germany announced they would hold an emergency meeting on Tuesday to discuss the spreading eurozone debt crisis.Paris said that the pair are to draft fresh joint proposals on eurozone governance.

4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws,(GOD FORCES THE RUSSIA-MUSLIMS TO MARCH) and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

Op-Ed: Us or Them: the US and Hiroshima, Israel and Iran Published: 12/08/11, 10:41 AM

The same principle holds that the US applied in Hiroshima, their lives or our lives their ideas or our ideas.

Yonatan Silverman
The author is a professional translator from Hebrew to English. He is the author of For the World to See:The Life of Margaret Bourke White. He operates the online newsletter SARTABA.In the US in the 1940s and 1950s the late Margaret Bourke-White was a very famous and exceptionally talented photojournalist. Among other things she loved airplanes and she loved flying. This was also true during World War II when she was assigned to the army as a journalist.At one point in the early 40s she flew in a bombing mission over Tunis and the pilot was Paul Tibbetts, who flew the Enola Gay over Hiroshima and dropped the A bomb there.Some years later, in the 1950s Bourke-White met Tibbetts again at an air base in Kansas. She asked him how he felt about the people on the ground when he dropped the bomb and he said something rather ignorant and unfeeling in reply. Col. Tibbetts said: They’re so poor and miserable it probably helps them as they’d only die anyway…

This caused Bourke-White to ask herself if it was necessary to drop the bomb on Hiroshima. She writes: I was distressed that I could feel no emotion. And if I did feel what should I feel? Pity? Regret? She concludes it was necessary to drop the bomb on Hiroshima because the war against Japan was a fight to the finish.It was their lives or our lives, she writes, their ideas or our ideas.Bourke-White’s assessment is totally accurate with respect to the challenge with which the Empire of Japan confronted the civilized world in World War II. According to the historical record, the ideology of Japanese imperialism and world domination which ignited World War II, originated in Japan in the end of the 19th century.Starting with universal military conscription, in 1873, the Japanese military indoctrinated thousands of men from various social backgrounds with military-patriotic values and the concept of unquestioning loyalty to the Emperor. The Japanese government at this time was strongly influenced by the recent striking success of Prussia in transforming itself from an agricultural state to a leading modern industrial and military power.The government adopted Prussian political ideas, which favored military expansion abroad and authoritarian government at home. The Prussian model also devalued the notion of civilian control over the independent military, which meant that in Japan, as in Germany, the military could develop into a state within a state, thus exercising greater influence on politics in general.Between World War I and World War II, the Japanese nation embarked on a course of imperialist expansion, using both diplomatic and military means to extend its control over more and more of the Asian mainland. It began to see itself as the protector and champion of Asian interests against the West, a point of view that brought it increasingly into conflict with the Western powers.

When its aggressive policies met firm resistance from the United States and its allies, Japan made common cause with the Axis countries of Germany and Italy and launched into war with the United States and the Western alliance.During the 1930s, the military established almost complete control over the government. Many political enemies were assassinated, and communists persecuted. Indoctrination and censorship in education and media were further intensified. Navy and army officers soon occupied most of the important offices, including the office of the prime minister.
On account of its desire for world domination, within a short time following the start of World War II, Japan aggressively expanded its control over a large territory that extended to the border of India in the West and New Guinea in the South.he Islamic Republic of Iran is a latter day Japan. A principle tenet of the Islamic extremism which governs Iran is reviving the Caliphate and the domination of imperial Islamic rule throughout the world. This principle emanates from another extremist Islamic belief which is Triumphalism.Hassan al Banna the founder of the fundamentalist Muslim Brotherhood said: It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated; to impose its law on all nations and to extend its power to the entire planet.This also epitomizes Iran’s political raison d’etre. Iran is unquestionably in a war with the West and it is a fight to the finish because Iran’s fanatic Muslim leaders hate western values and western culture generally and are avowed to subdue the West through the superior force of Islam. In particular,Iran’s barbaric leadership hates Jews from the Koran and they lust to annihilate the Jewish people and Israel. Logic dictates that if Iran acquires a nuclear bomb Israel’s neck is the first one in the Iranian nuclear noose. Iran’s fanatic Islamic government really only wants the bomb to wipe Israel off the map.So, the same principle holds that the US applied in Hiroshima, their lives or our lives their ideas or our ideas.
In brief, Israel along with its western allies needs to drop an atomic bomb pre-emptively on some location in Iran to make the same point to the lunatic Ayatollahs that the US made to Japan in Hiroshima.Dropping the A bomb on Hiroshima forced Japan to surrender. It ended a protracted brutal war against a relentless savage enemy, spared the lives of perhaps a million US servicemen, and led directly to the recreation of Japanese society and government according to a rational, civilized, peace oriented model that has stood the test of time.

PA Residents: Where are Human Rights when PA Oppresses Us?-PA Arabs rally against wave of detentions, ask where human rights groups are when PA oppresses its people.by Maayana Miskin Published: 12/08/11, 1:32 PM

Palestinian Authority Arabs in Hevron held a rally Thursday protesting a wave of arrests by PA forces in recent weeks. The protesters, many of them relatives of Hamas terrorists detained by the PA, accused PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas' troops of conducting the arrests for political reasons.Children of prisoners chained themselves together, according to Maan news. Others held signs saying,Human rights organizations – what are you doing to achieve rights? Protesters accused human rights groups of failing to stand up to the PA.Some of the adults present accused PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas of deliberately undermining the recent reconciliation of the warring Fatah and Hamas factions. Abbas' police always escalate arrests during dialogue, one said.Abbas spoke to former rival Ismail Haniyeh, head of Hamas in Gaza, on Thursday. The two discussed ongoing efforts to reunite the PA in Judea and Samaria with its breakaway counterpart in Gaza.

PA: Honor No Longer Automatic Murder Excuse-Men in the PA who murder female relatives will no longer have their sentences automatically commuted if they claim family honor.by Maayana Miskin Published: 12/08/11, 12:51 PM


Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has altered a law that granted men an automatic light sentence in the murder of female relatives if they claimed defense of family honor. If the PA parliament approves the bill, judges will have the power to rule that the honor claim does not stand.They will also retain the power to rule that the honor defense is valid.Previously, PA law followed Jordanian laws dating back to the 1960s, which ruled that a man who murdered a female relative would get a maximum of six months in prison if he argued that she had been engaged in a sexual relationship outside of marriage. PA society sees improper sexual activity on a woman's part as tarnishing her family's honor, and her death as the only way to remove the blemish.The change follows a high-profile case in which a young PA woman was murdered by an uncle. While several young PA women in Judea, Samaria and Gaza are murdered in honor crimes each year, the case of young Aya Baradiya was different in that her immediate family strongly opposed the murder, and maintains that Aya was innocent of any honor offense.The killing was also particularly cruel – Aya's uncle and his accomplices beat the 21-year-old student and threw her down a well still alive to drown.

PA-based rights groups had different reactions to Abbas' step toward changing the law. While some praised the move as a triumph for women's rights following years of struggle, others expressed concern that the law, even if passed, may not change facts on the ground as it leaves judges with the power to rule that honor is just cause for murder.Violence against women remains a widespread problem under PA rule, and even more so under Hamas. A 2010 study found that up to 75% of Gaza women are subjected to physical violence from male relatives; the findings were blamed on Israel.Honor killings are an issue in some Arab cities in Israel as well. Police often have difficulty prosecuting such crimes due to witnesses' refusal to testify.

PA TV's Best Mothers Honors Mother of Suicide Terrorist-PA TV program Best Mothers honors suicide terrorist by visiting her mother who relates to the bombing as a wedding, Darin is a bride by Arutz Sheva Staff Published: 12/08/11, 12:05 PM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ML-7zneHbI&feature=player_embedded

On occasion of the Ramadan, PA TV has launched a new program called The Best Mothers. Every day, the edited 10-minute program shows a different Palestinian mother in her home, talking about her children.Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) reports that last week, PA TV chose to visit the mother of Darin Abu Aisheh, a suicide bomber who blew herself up at a roadblock in 2002, wounding three Israelis.
PA TV focused on a poster of the terrorist displayed in the mother's home with the following text and Quran quote: Fight them, and Allah will punish them by your hands, cover them with shame, help you (to victory) over them, heal the breasts of Believers.The mother spoke with pride of how she received the news of her daughter's death, seeing it as her wedding: I didn't scream, even my scarf stayed on my head. Everyone came. Everyone heard what happened... I was sitting and started to sing to her. I said, It's the night before your wedding, Darin, and we won't see you anymore, my daughter.People around me said, Allah be with you. I said,I haven't gone mad, I'm not crazy. I want to sing, Darin is a bride.PMW's Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik explain that while Islamic tradition says that male martyrs marry the 72 dark-eyed virgins of Paradise, there is also a belief that a female martyr becomes one of the virgins and marries a martyr.Palestinian Media Watch has reported that also PA's Minister of Prisoners' Affairs, Issa Karake, recently glorified suicide terrorist Darin Abu Aisheh when he emphasized the achievements of different female terrorists on the occasion of International Women's Day and Mother's Day.

PA Gets EU Bailout-The EU and Sweden step in to save the PA from yet another financial crisis.by Maayana Miskin Published: 12/08/11, 9:28 AM

The European Union has agreed to save the Palestinian Authority from a financial crisis that led it to stop paying full employee salaries. EU officials are giving 22.5 million euros to help the PA pay its roughly 170,000 public employees.In addition, Sweden is giving four million euros.PA Prime Minister Salam Fayyad thanked Swedish officials Thursday, and called on other countries to follow Sweden's lead. He mentioned the Arab world in particular.Fayyad has accused Arab countries of playing a part in the current crisis by failing to follow through on promises of aid.
International organizations have warned for years that the PA, never a self-sufficient entity, is becoming increasingly dependent on aid. Fayyad argues that the PA is ready for a state anyway.Fayyad has also claimed that the PA is heading in the right direction, a claim disputed by experts.Among the elements of the PA economy criticized by experts is the fact that the PA employs more than 170,000 people, despite currently being responsible for an estimated 1.5 million residents. Tens of thousands of the PA employees live in Gaza, where they have continued to receive salaries for several years despite being replaced by Hamas employees in 2007.

SEC To Investigate Trades Based On S&P Downgrade Inside Information Zero Hedge Aug 12, 2011

While the president makes yet more speeches about how the time to leave the past behind us is now (while newly scapegoating Europe for the economic catastrophe), the sniping war against S&P continues, only this time with a twist. According to the FT, the SEC has asked the rating agency to disclose who at the company knew about the downgrade, as part of a preliminary look into potential insider trading. The funny thing is that while the answer will be everyone, even in that case the SEC will end up doing nothing as it always does (pun intended), and the whole process is nothing but a sham to humiliate the rating agency.The inquiry was made by the SEC’s examination staff, which has oversight of credit rating firms, one person familiar with the matter said. The exam staff can make referrals to the SEC’s enforcement division if it believes any laws have been violated, but the inquiry might not result in a referral….Proving someone leaked information about the downgrade, or traded ahead of it, could be challenging. Many traders anticipated the downgrade and bets could occur across numerous securities or currencies without inside information. In a traditional insider trading case, there is often a more predictable correlation between a company’s stock price and a particular development.Of course the next question is what is the null hypothesis: that leakees would buy or sell bonds based on the info? Because the natural response would be to dump treasuries even as the real outcome was a plunge in equities and a scramble to safe one-ply paper. So is PIMCO about to be charged with insder trading for having sold 10 Years even though in reality the spread tightened by a record 60 bps in the following week? So instead of going on yet another wild horse chase, in which the simple defense is that all those who traded on the leaked downgrade report, actually lost money, how about doing some real work and finding out if some of the numerous politicians who were certainly privy to the data, and for whom insider trading regulations are ineffective, did not by some odd chance spill the secret to their significant others.

Which brings us to the inverse case, already discussed previously on Zero Hedge, when we learned about two months ago that after Moody’s had leaked the fact that it would not downgrade the US, one of those who found out was Nancy Pelosi. This inspired us to ask whether it was not so much Ms. Pelosi, but local financier and multi-millionaire Paul Pelosi who may have traded on said information.For the benefit of those who may have missed it, we recreate the full piece below, and in doing so we ask the SEC to perhaps investigate and pursue cases which are a little easier to prove and prosecute, instead of going on yet another worthless and time-consuming wild goose chase that will inevitably result in absolutely nothing.
From Zero Hedge, June 2, 2011 Moody’s Leaked Again: Told Nancy Pelosi Will Probably Not Downgrade US Weeks Ago; Did Her Multi-Millionaire Investor Husband Know Too?

Moody’s reputation for leaking inside information is well-known: after all it was one of its own employees, Deep Throat Shah, who leaked to infamous hedge fund Galleon information of upcoming LBOs. But at least that wasn’t information originating from Moody’s: the world’s most incompetent rating agency was merely a conduit. Yet we were little surprised to learn that the firm that facilitated the housing bubble, and where such talking head apparatchiks as Mark Zandi reside, informed none other than House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi that it likely wouldn’t downgrade the US debt as long as several weeks ago. Per Dow Jones: Moody’s earlier Thursday took the unusual step of warning that it might place the U.S. government’s debt rating under review for a possible downgrade. The agency said the review would come if Congress doesn’t make progress on raising the country’s debt ceiling. Pelosi said she was alerted to the Moody’s report just after House Democrats met with President Barack Obama at the White House. She said a few weeks ago she was in New York and the head of Moody’s told her that it would probably not downgrade, so this is interesting news today,she said.But the fact is we cannot default on the debt. We are relieved to learn that the head of Moody’s, a firm which only last summer received a Wells Notice from the SEC, in an investigation which was promptly scuttled by powerful and rich people, takes its responsibility of protecting material, non-public information with such passion. Yet it is the topic of another leak of non-public information, and not Moody’s criminal incompetence, that bothers us. Because as wenoted last week, it is now proven scientifically that members of both Congress and Senate (especially democrats), tend to trade a littel too much on inside information. And even if not Ms. Pelosi, who precisely will guarantee us that Ms Pelosi’s husband, multi-millionaire Paul Pelosi who just happens to be the owner of Financial Leasing Services, Inc., a San Francisco, California-based real estate and venture capital investment and consulting firm, did not procure the Moody’s inside information courtesy of wagging tongues at Moody’s and in his wife’s mouth, and then proceed to trade accordingly. Alas, with the regulator in charge being the same one who let the whole Moody’s investigation get deadended in record time, we are not hopeful of getting any information or justice. Ever.

From Dow Jones:Pelosi said she was alerted to the Moody’s report just after House Democrats met with President Barack Obama at the White House. She said a few weeks ago she was in New York and the head of Moody’s told her that it would probably not downgrade, so this is interesting news today,she said. But the fact is we cannot default on the debt.When pressed a few minutes later about what Moody’s told her, Pelosi said the ratings agency told her they might not downgrade the country’s debt.

The country is set to default on its debt by Aug. 2 if Congress doesn’t agree to raise the government’s borrowing limit. Pelosi said all Democrats agree a default would have devastating consequences for the economy.A downgrade of the government’s debt could increase the country’s borrowing costs.And a little more on the mysterious Mr. Pelosi:For more than 20 years, Paul Pelosi has been able to stay in the shadows, even as the millions he has made as a successful San Francisco financier and businessman have helped fuel the political career of his wife, Nancy.
I’ve made a conscious effort to not be involved or give the appearance of being involved in her political career,he told The Chronicle in 2004.People should realize that she’s the one.But the couple’s net worth, most of it linked to Paul Pelosi’s investments, has made the legislator the ninth-richest person in the 435-member House.The family money, along with the many business and social connections Paul Pelosi has brought to their 43-year marriage, gave Nancy Pelosi the financial independence she needed to spend long hours doing unpaid Democratic Party business in the 1970s and 1980s. Since she was elected to Congress in 1987, it has also added a degree of comfort to her life in Washington, where she has a $1 million-plus residence and a lifestyle that doesn’t depend on the $212,100 annual salary she will receive as speaker.Having a Town Car pick you up is way better than Yellow Cab, said Joe Cotchett, a Burlingame attorney and Democratic fundraiser who is a longtime friend of the Pelosis.Frankly, it’s a copout to say, My husband makes the money, said Peter Schweizer, a fellow at Stanford’s Hoover Institution whose recent book Do as I Say (Not as I Do): Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy contains a chapter on the Pelosis.In fact, Nancy Pelosi’s most recent financial disclosure statement shows just how careful Paul Pelosi has been in his investment decisions. Because the federal statements require a politician to give only a range of value for investments, they show the Pelosis’ net worth was $14.7 million to $55 million in 2005, ranking them ninth in the House and 17th in the entire Congress.

The bulk of the Pelosis’ money comes from investments in stocks and real estate. Operating through Financial Leasing Services, his San Francisco investment firm, Paul Pelosi owns stock in companies including Microsoft, AT&T, Cisco Systems, Disney, Johnson & Johnson and a variety of tech stocks.Real estate investments include a four-story office building at 45 Belden St. in the Financial District, office buildings on Battery and Sansome streets near the Embarcadero, a building housing a Walgreens drugstore near Ocean Beach and other commercial property in San Anselmo.Other investments include a St. Helena vineyard worth between $5 million and $25 million, a $1 million-plus townhome in Norden (Nevada County), and minority interests in the Auberge du Soleil resort hotel in Rutherford, the CordeValle Golf Club in San Martin, and the Piatti Italian restaurant chain.
