Happy something or other ....

Merry Christmas. Say it. Mean it. Resist this ridiculous effort to change what is a religious time of year to something else. Why are some trying to change it? It is the commercial chain stores, Macys in New York, owned by Federated Stores, wants us to say Happy Holidays or Seasons Greetings as though it was Easter break, or something else, because in THEIR interpretation of Christmas, they THINK that other religions will be offended. Offended. Like Jews, Muslims and Buddhists will refuse to shop. And shopping is more important than real merry Christmas. I notice the Hudsons Bay has no 'Merry Christmas' either, are they buying into the sham? The Bay is being bought by Target from America. Are they trying to suck up to their new indifferent to Christmas bosses? There is an organized campaign growing in the states to boycott Macys. Not a bad idea. Even if you're not religious. It's Christmas and it's Christ's birthday for Chrissakes!

Given the choice, I'd rather boycott Macys and the Bay than Jesus Christ.

Repost - still interesting - still a mystery - still questions

 After fifty long years, the huge 26 volume Warren Commission Report is still unbelievable to 85% of the American people. And we are no closer to understanding the What, Why, and Who of the events. Except to suggest it was a coup d'etat of democracy. But it is not going away. Tidbits of information about the perps, if indeed they are the perps, continue to emerge. Even the side issue here about Officer Tippit remains of high interest.

49 years and counting .... November 24

It seems that even after this long long time it would be apropos to repost a couple of things about that infamous day in history. There are still a few reads you can research yourself. But even if you do, they still lead to nothing but even more questions about what actually happened that day in Dallas .....

Today in History - November 24

Lee Harvey Oswald.
While the world was still reeling at the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, we saw the alleged perpetrator of the crime, caught and killed only two days later, and on national TV!
And these many years on we can only marvel at the speed with which his apprehension for the crimes happened. And the positive assertion that Oswald was undoubtedly the lone killer of Officer Tippit and Kennedy.
All these instant conclusions would be astounding even in todays era of nanosecond web communication. Yet over these years so many nagging doubts still evoke questions.

Oswald was supposed to have shot Kennedy from a 6th floor coign of vantage in the Texas Schoolbook Depository, with a Mannlicher-Carcano rifle. But first it was identified as a 7.65 Italian Mauser, by sherrifs and FBI Special Agents. Affidavits were signed. Then it became a 6.5 Carcano rifle. Why? Because the FBI discovered that Oswald HAD purchased a Carcano, but NOT a Mauser. And even other rifles are now mentioned. And it took a world class marksman from the Army to nearly duplicate the 3 shots in 4.5 second feat! Other trained US Marine snipers said it could not be done.
And an almost perfect bullet 'appeared' on the stretcher bearing the President's body. A bullet that went through TWO bodies. That looks as if the Lone Ranger put it there!

Oswald was even identified by someone who SAW him up there from across the street! Is that believeable today?

Oswald was supposedly seen being questioned by Tippit shortly after leaving his job and taking to the streets. Witnesses said they saw him shoot Tippit. They even saw him REloading his handgun while fleeing! Does that sound like a frightened killer? Yet other witnesses said another car pulled up, a man got out and shot Tippit and then roared away! Someone else saw two men who were NOT Oswald. Witnesses even identified a different assailant as heavy set, wearing a long overcoat. Many witnesses claimed intimidations and threats about their testimonys. Several eye-witnesses died soon after.
The Warren Commission ignored most of it.

And what was Officer Tippit up to on the hour before he died? Why was he far out of his patrol area? Why did he suddenly rush to 10th Street and stop to make a phone call in a cafe but only listened and said nothing? Why did he seem panicked when he made the call? He left his car radio at a crucial time. Then he was seen cruising very slowly. Why was Tippit known in the area he died in? Some witnesses thought he lived nearby. But it was miles from his patrol area and his home?

How did anyone know Oswald's path of exit? Was it coincidence? Happenstance? Or enemy action? Officer Tippit was directed exactly where to go, minutes after the murder. Then radioed back when he was in position. Why was Tippit directed to 10th St? Was he? The Dallas police lieutenant who may have directed Tippit that day, Harry Dean Thomas, married his widow three years later.
The shells from the shooting were gathered by policeman, J.M. Poe, and he marked them with his initials, however the shell casings eventually entered into evidence had no such markings.

Oswald went to his rooming house first. Who were the two policemen who stopped in front, gave two horn honks and went away? Then he went to a movie theatre. Why did he go there instead of staying on a bus and getting far away? Was he under a prearranged instruction to go to that theatre? Part of a plan to have him where someone wanted him? Did someone give him a revolver there? Perhaps the very revolver just used to kill Tippit? Perhaps by the very person who DID kill Tippit? The revolver in his possession was fully loaded with no empty chambers. And he had no additional ammunition with him. So if Oswald shot Tippit four times, and REloaded, then he must have had only had four extra bullets with him? Seems too odd, doesn't it?

Oswald was constant in his claim that he was a patsy. He was innocent. He never shot anybody. And more than one scholar who has gone through the whole case has said the Mexico and Soviet Union implications could have easily pointed to Oswald being a CIA spy.
Alas, all these years later we are still suspicious, yet nowhere near advanced in our factuals about how it happened. The circumstances seem just too complex. The evidence now too scattered. Diffused. Lost. Misinformation and disinformation. Indeed, but we have more questions than ever.
His actions seem to be a response to suddenly realizing he had been set up. Confusion, desperation, the compounding of events leading him to take a predetermined escape route as his only hope. A route designed by who?

Lee Harvey Oswald was never actually charged with killing the Presdient.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and from September 27, 2011

This day in history - - - September 27

(1963 – 64) The Warren Commission. A group appointed by Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson to investigate the circumstances surrounding President John F. Kennedy's slaying and the shooting of his (alleged) assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. It was chaired by Earl Warren and included two U.S. senators, two U.S. congressmen, and two former public officials.
After months of investigation, it reported that Kennedy was killed by Oswald's rifle shots from the Texas School Book Depository and that Oswald's murder by Jack Ruby two days later was not part of a conspiracy to assassinate Kennedy.
Its findings were later questioned in a number of books and articles and in a special congressional committee report in 1979, though no conclusive contradictory evidence was found.

JD Tippit

One of those first books, Rush to Judgment, by lawyer Mark Lane, pointed out that the conclusions in the Summery, those few pages that most people and reporters read, had little to do with the volumes of actual evidence in the content.
Today a believer of this, 'Oswald alone', conclusion is rare. And because that summery seemed falsified, it berthed a lifetime of conspiracy theories about the President's death.
Even following the interesting side story of the trail of Officer Tippit on that day and you might join the legions of disbelievers.

The members of that Warren Commission were -

- Earl Warren - Chief Justice of the United States. Eisenhower offered Warren the post of solicitor general, with the promise of a seat on the Supreme Court. But before it was announced, Chief Justice Fred M. Vinson unexpectedly died in September 1953 and Eisenhower replaced him with Warren. As Chief Justice of the United States some said many of his decisions were 'inappropriate'.

- Hale Boggs - Died mysteriously in a plane crash while flying over remote Alaska in October, 1972 . Wreckage never found. In April 1971 he had made a speech on the floor of the House in which he strongly attacked J. Edgar Hoover and the whole of the FBI.

- Gerald Ford - Future President. Ford commented in his own report that the CIA destroyed or kept from investigators critical secrets connected to the assassination.

- John Sherman Cooper - In the general election in 1954 Cooper was defeated by Alben W. Barkley a Democrat who had been Vice President under Harry S. Truman but Barkley subsequently died, and Cooper was elected to fill his unexpired term in 1956.

- John J. McCloy - He was initially skeptical of the lone gunman theory, but a trip to Dallas with Allen Dulles, an old friend also serving on the Commission, in the spring of 1964 to visit the scene of the assassination convinced him of the case against Lee Harvey Oswald.

- Allen Welsh Dulles - Director of the CIA. It evolved under his directorship into a team of assassins. One member, Frank Sturgis, claimed: "this assassination group (Operation 40) would upon orders, naturally, assassinate either members of the military or the political parties of the foreign country that you were going to infiltrate, and if necessary some of your own members." (Sturgis was also one of the Watergate burglars) Dulles and his staff were forced to resign in September 1961 when President Kennedy reportedly said he wanted to "splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds."

The Warren report's lack of candor furthered antigovernment cynicism, which in turn stimulated conspiracy theorists who propounded any number of alternative scenarios, all mutually contradictory, and all going strong today.

Who can you trust?
.

In a new revelation by Jackie Kennedy she recently revealed her suspicions of LBJ. And we all know she married Ari Onassis simply because he was the one man in the world who could actually protect her from an 'unexpected' and mysterious death. 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .... back to today ....

And an even more recent revelation suggests that Jackie Kennedy/Onassis recorded several tapes before she died. And they are somewhere. Waiting to be revealed. It is further proposed by some researchers, that Oswald was a paid asset of the FBI.
Arlen Specter, (later a Senator) was assistant counsel to the Warren Commission (recommended by Gerald Ford) and came up with the single bullet theory, which was readily adopted because having Connally and Kennedy shot by two separate bullets in such a short time frame would indicate TWO assassins and a conspiracy! Convenient, huh? Why did Specter miss so many obvious followup questions to the witnesses? Unanswered questions only result in more questions. In recent years, there have been suggestions that some secret sponsored shadow cell has plans for a coup d'etat of the American Government, even that 9/11 may have been the precursor.

And there are also those who also believe the coup was already accomplished on November 22, 1963!

But just investigating through 'open source' the one aspect of Officer Tippit is an interesting exercise and takes you well away from the 49 years of spin and cover up about JFK. Go ahead, try it. At the very least you'll have a fascinating read, way better than TV fiction. And you'll involve yourself in history.

                                 Officer Tippit's autopsy                   

(link 1 and 4 were removed by someone, but I put them back) 

Follow the fascinating timeline and perhaps you will come up with more questions too: like why did the Davis sisters believe he lived in the nearby apartment house? Who DID live there to cause Tippit to be there often? Why was he speeding around frantically in the minutes after JFK was shot? Was he supposed to intercept Oswald? Why was he on West 10th Street when he was thought to be miles away at the Dealey Plaza by the overpass? How many contradictions may already be within the transcripts of accounts, interviews and events? Is there one fact somewhere, just waiting for a new eye to find it? Is there one sentence somewhere that says, 'This cannot be, therefore that must be?' 

They can't hide ALL the trails leading to truth. We finally learned the identity of deepthroat, proving that Watergate lie. Anything can still happen.

And one thing about a coup d'etat, they don't all reveal themselves in a momentary flash through smoke and fire and violence ... they can emerge in stealth over many years. 



(Thanks to William M. Drenas  [Tippit Timeline],  for communicating with me and others interested researchers for never exhausting their efforts in the search for truth)

Will there ever be discovered that grain of proof? Who knows, but some won't stop looking.

 

 

Why Dog people are the worst

 I am not alone. Here's a recent event -

    This woman decided that the lice and maybe mange disease she found in her dog hair was better left on a public park bench than in her house. Do these kinds of people ever wash their dog after it poops? Before they allow the animal on a bench that a young mother would like to relax on with her baby? Or an older couple to pause in their daily walk? What kind of mentality is this?

 

When questioned, people like this only say, "Oh no, my dog is clean, watch him kiss me!" Without a blink that he might have just licked another dog's bum before he laps her face!  

 

Then there are the ones who walk right in front of you, while talking on their phones, (or pretending to) and not looking at Rover poop right there in your space. Others just look up at the sky while it defiles the grass. Look at it this way, if it was up to the dog, he would go off into the bush and do it, he's got some class and a little pride, but not you. you've got the poor little bugger on a leash and he is forced to shit in front of everyone. These folks never pull the dog away from your area, allowing it to sniff and circle right as if they had no control.

Went to visit friends for a summer get together, about 10 people in their living room. A woman in the middle of us all encouraging the dog to run everywhere, bouncing off the furniture. I said to the host woman, "Your dog is very active." She answered quietly, "It's not my dog."  OMG, the person was invited to a friend's home and brought her freaking DOG? And then exercised it and let it tear up her carpet? How cute is that!

Some get what they deserve though - leave him in the car while you dash for a latte. Sure.

And one lady, took virtually ALL the doggie bags from the park dispenser into her purse. Maybe the dog was in there too but I didn't see it. Wonder if her husband's lunch smells bad? Is that a peanut butter sandwich or not?

Another guy got a chihuahua. He took it everywhere. Even golfing. Three of the foursome wanted him to let it run so they could aim at it. Were willing to sacrifice a whole box of new balls! 

And how often do you see that macho Dodge Ram pick-up driver with Pookie on his lap, a total distraction as the animal squirms around, putting the lives of all pedestrians in danger because this guy can't steer or brake hard or the little piece of furry shit will slide of his lap and get under that brake pedal.

Here's more - A guy in a nice suit took his dog out before work. A rare bit of empty grass downtown. One day he met a young girl as he was walking the critter. For a few times after, they passed and talked, a budding romance. Until one time he was on his way back home when he met her, they chatted, he had a bag of poop in his hand. Never saw them together after that. 

I knew this lady in a high rise apartment building, she was way too busy watching Oprah to take him out to do his business. It was a two bedroom with a bath and a shower. Well, the shower was a great convenience, the dog just hopped into the stall, and all Miss Bliss had to do was pass by during commercials and turn on the shower for a while. What a flush! But it was okay, she didn't have to feed him Kibbles and Bits and could do soft food! 

Speaking of high rise condos, they all have that slow elevator. You're going to work in a perfectly good suit, or wife has a lovely dress on. When here she comes, the lady from the sixth holding Muffin squirming and lurching in every direction. She's so excited she pisses on your shoe! The dog, not the lady. And leaps on you to get a pat on the head when you'd rather it be a hammer to the head! Tears your pants, or wifey's linen skirt,  and worse for your woman, the dreaded crotch sniff! With a wet nose! And now she is going out with a dark spot. Right ... there!

I think Oprah may do this soon - "And tonight, everyone in our audience goes home with a BRAND
NEW DOG!" (sorts of cheers)

How's that? A free dog. Really? Yeah, no shit. Er .... well .... um, maybe some, but it is only lil droplets. And we know that Oprah person can't wait to take her dog to restaurants so she can overwhelm your hygienic protests by telling you how she got it.

So in the Forties we had gum chewers. Everywhere on the streets, those circles of spit-out gum hardened on the sidewalk. Then it became smokers, butts everywhere. Now it is dog poop. But they only pick it up by the clean end, and leave the residue in the grass so your children can never run barefoot again. Too bad. 

There are three reasons that, even if you're desperate for friends, you should reject some potentials: 1- He or she smokes. Them kind are not bright enough to know any better, forgive them but don't befriend them.  2- The person is wearing a Tilly hat. No explanation needed on this one. and  3 - He or she has a dog. Why wonder if she will turn up for dinner and feed it on her lap at your table? And you know it is going to bite you sooner or later.

I have nothing against Lassie, or Rin Tin Tin, or Astra, they are great in the movies, but with a proper dog wrangler. Just don't try Mr. Piddles out on me.

This is a dog day afternoon. With Alpo? Nope gotta be dry. Balanced for health? Full of nutrition? Vitamins? Nope, just pick-up-able. No more canned food, too moist. 

My dog used to get the cooked turkey neck at Christmas with some gravy and veggies in the bowl. He wagged his tail, walked around it several times, and smiled his thanks at us for the treat before eating it slowly and with much appreciation. 

Then we sent him out to the back yard.

                                               Don't think he will be cute or small forever.

Death List?

On Saturday, August 10th, 2019,  multimillionaire Jeffrey Epstein, the highest profile prisoner in US custody, was found dead in his prison cell in Manhattan.

This occurred the day after two thousand previously sealed court documents involving the Jeffrey Epstein child sex abuse case were released to the public. The documents described how Bill Clinton held a private party on Jeffrey Epstein’s pedophile island. Clinton made at least 27 trips on Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane. Most of those flights were with underage girls. 

Despite a previous attempt on his life just three weeks before the prison guards skipped the 30 minute required checks on Epstein’s cell that night. Early next morning they found him dead. Jeffrey Epstein is the latest in a long list of Clinton family associates and acquaintances who died mysteriously or committed suicide before their public testimony.

In 2016 CBS Las Vegas posted a list of Bill and Hillary Clinton associates alleged to have died under mysterious circumstances.

Here is that list.

1- James McDougal – Clintons convicted Whitewater partner died of an apparent heart attack, while in solitary confinement. He was a key witness in Ken Starr’s investigation.

2 – Mary Mahoney – A former White House intern was murdered July 1997 at a Starbucks Coffee Shop in Georgetown. The murder happened just after she was to go public with her story of sexual harassment in the White House.

3 – Vince Foster – Former White House counselor and colleague of Hillary Clinton at Little Rock’s Rose Law firm. Died of a gunshot wound to the head, ruled a suicide.

4 – Ron Brown – Secretary of Commerce and former DNC Chairman. Reported to have died by impact in a plane crash. A pathologist close to the investigation reported that there was a hole in the top of Brown’s skull resembling a gunshot wound. At the time of his death Brown was being investigated, and spoke publicly of his willingness to cut a deal with prosecutors. The rest of the people on the plane also died. A few days later the Air Traffic controller committed suicide.

5 – C. Victor Raiser, II – Raiser, a major player in the Clinton fund raising organization died in a private plane crash in July 1992.

6 – Paul Tulley – Democratic National Committee Political Director found dead in a hotel room in Little Rock, September 1992. Described by Clinton as a “dear friend and trusted adviser”.

7 – Ed Willey – Clinton fundraiser, found dead November 1993 deep in the woods in VA of a gunshot wound to the head. Ruled a suicide. Ed Willey died on the same day his wife Kathleen Willey claimed Bill Clinton groped her in the oval office in the White House. Ed Willey was involved in several Clinton fund raising events.

8 – Jerry Parks – Head of Clinton’s gubernatorial security team in Little Rock. Gunned down in his car at a deserted intersection outside Little Rock. Park’s son said his father was building a dossier on Clinton. He allegedly threatened to reveal this information. After he died the files were mysteriously removed from his house.

9 – James Bunch – Died from a gunshot suicide. It was reported that he had a “Black Book” of people which contained names of influential people who visited prostitutes in Texas and Arkansas

10 – James Wilson – Was found dead in May 1993 from an apparent hanging suicide. He was reported to have ties to Whitewater.

11 – Kathy Ferguson – Ex-wife of Arkansas Trooper Danny Ferguson, was found dead in May 1994, in her living room with a gunshot to her head. It was ruled a suicide even though there were several packed suitcases, as if she were going somewhere. Danny Ferguson was a co-defendant along with Bill Clinton in the Paula Jones lawsuit Kathy Ferguson was a possible corroborating witness for Paula Jones.

12 – Bill Shelton – Arkansas State Trooper and fiancee of Kathy Ferguson. Critical of the suicide ruling of his fiancee, he was found dead in June, 1994 of a gunshot wound also ruled a suicide at the grave site of his fiancee.

13 – Gandy Baugh – Attorney for Clinton’s friend Dan Lassater, died by jumping out a window of a tall building January, 1994. His client was a convicted drug distributor.

14 – Florence Martin – Accountant & sub-contractor for the CIA, was related to the Barry Seal, Mena, Arkansas, airport drug smuggling case. He died of three gunshot wounds.

15 – Suzanne Coleman – Reportedly had an affair with Clinton when he was Arkansas Attorney General. Died of a gunshot wound to the back of the head, ruled a suicide. Was pregnant at the time of her death.

16 – Paula Grober – Clinton’s speech interpreter for the deaf from 1978 until her death December 9, 1992. She died in a one car accident.

17 – Danny Casolaro – Investigative reporter, investigating Mena Airport and Arkansas Development Finance Authority. He slit his wrists, apparently, in the middle of his investigation.

18 – Paul Wilcher – Attorney investigating corruption at Mena Airport with Casolaro and the 1980 “October Surprise” was found dead on a toilet June 22, 1993, in his Washington DC apartment had delivered a report to Janet Reno 3 weeks before his death.

20 – Barbara Wise – Commerce Department staffer. Worked closely with Ron Brown and John Huang. Cause of death: Unknown. Died November 29, 1996. Her bruised, naked body was found locked in her office at the Department of Commerce.

21 – Charles Meissner – Assistant Secretary of Commerce who gave John Huang special security clearance, died shortly thereafter in a small plane crash.

22 – Dr. Stanley Heard – Chairman of the National Chiropractic Health Care Advisory Committee died with his attorney Steve Dickson in a small plane crash. Dr. Heard, in addition to serving on Clinton‘s advisory council personally treated Clinton’s mother, stepfather and brother.

23 – Barry Seal – Drug running TWA pilot out of Mena Arkansas, death was no accident.

24 – Johnny Lawhorn, Jr. – Mechanic, found a check made out to Bill Clinton in the trunk of a car left at his repair shop. He was found dead after his car had hit a utility pole.

26 – Hershell Friday – Attorney and Clinton fundraiser died March 1, 1994, when his plane exploded.

27 – Kevin Ives & Don Henry – Known as “The boys on the track” case. Reports say the boys may have stumbled upon the Mena Arkansas airport drug operation. A controversial case, the initial report of death said, due to falling asleep on railroad tracks. Later reports claim the 2 boys had been slain before being placed on the tracks. Many linked to the case died before their testimony could come before a Grand Jury.

THE FOLLOWING PERSONS HAD INFORMATION ON THE IVES/HENRY CASE:

28 – Keith Coney – Died when his motorcycle slammed into the back of a truck, 7/88.

29 – Keith McMaskle – Died, stabbed 113 times, Nov, 1988

30 – Gregory Collins – Died from a gunshot wound January 1989.

31 – Jeff Rhodes – He was shot, mutilated and found burned in a trash dump in April 1989.

32 – James Milan – Found decapitated. However, the Coroner ruled his death was due to natural causes.

34 – Richard Winters – A suspect in the Ives/Henry deaths. He was killed in a set-up robbery July 1989.

THE FOLLOWING CLINTON BODYGUARDS ARE ALSO DEAD -
35 – Major William S. Barkley, Jr.
36 – Captain Scott J . Reynolds
37 – Sgt. Brian Hanley
38 – Sgt. Tim Sabel
39 – Major General William Robertson
40 – Col. William Densberger
41 – Col. Robert Kelly
42 – Spec. Gary Rhodes
43 – Steve Willis
44 – Robert Williams
45 – Conway LeBleu
46 – Todd McKeehan

And the most recent, Seth Rich, the DC staffer murdered and “robbed” (of nothing) on July 10. Wikileaks founder Julian Assange claims he had info on the DNC email scandal.

Not Included in this list are the 4 heroes killed in Benghazi.

And today you can add multi-millionaire Jeffrey Epstein to the list.

Some people have this list at over 100. 

And don't forget that after John Kennedy Jr. died in that mysterious plane crash, that Hillary Clinton then won the Senate seat he would have gone for. 

Interesting, huh? Convenient too.

Court rules

So the BC Appeals Court has decided that Alberta can send whatever they like through a pipe they will build from Edmonton and the Alberta Tar Sands, into and through British Columbia, crossing land and stream on the way right into downtown Vancouver! 
BC cannot use environmental protection laws to stop the process Trans Mountain wants to build and has already started building in anticipation of a favorable ruling. Just like predicted. 

As intended, the pipeline will terminate right on Burrard Inlet in Burnaby. At the largest port on the West Coast and within tidal reach of every sandy beach, Stanley Park and virtually all communities in Metro Vancouver. You remember the pipeline that the Americans were desperate to get rid of and would have taken 10 cents on the dollar for? And Justin Trudeau and his addled Liberals bought it for twice its value. And that is only part.

Your neighborhood?

Tanker traffic will quadruple and have to navigate the tides and narrow channels on its way out to the Pacific Ocean. Past English Bay, Georgia Straight, our Gulf Islands and the America San Juan islands and Victoria.
We are told there is no risk of a spill. Its all okay folks. We have never had a real answer to what happens in that event and some only assume that a spill in the BC Mountains would just release the pipeline product into the streams and rivers and it would find its own way to the Pacific. And bitumen doesn't float away on water, it sinks to the bottom. 

Leaking into arable land is another scenario. BC has only 4 percent of it's land available for farming. 

But pipeline company and oil company executives tell us don't worry, we're looking after it. This from companies who cannot explain why BC gasoline prices are 20% higher here than everywhere else in the country.
And these companies only talk about a spill on BC lands on the way to the terminal. They can not have any guarantee of the tankers that would visit here. After pumping it into a tanker in Burnaby they have no responsibility!

above the Burnaby terminal & tank farm! Don't light a match!

We had a small spill in English Bay a while ago, and the TV stations were covering it for hours before any attempt was made to contain the sheen of oil in the water. 
Mainly because the Federal government had shut down the Coast Guard on the West Coast! Not only that, once blame was established, and the tanker company was billed for the cost of cleanup, it only offered to pay a small percentage of the costs! 

In case you were wondering, Exxon oil has not paid all the costs or fines of their Valdez spill 30 years later! Their retainer lawyers are seeing to that!
The BP spill in the gulf of Mexico has resulted in a huge dead zone where nothing can live or grow again! No shrimp, no fish, not even seaweed! And all the while the Deep Water Horizon was leaking underwater the CEO of the corporation was lying through his teeth about what was going on down there. And even told the President of America and the US Navy to butt out! And they did. 
The Kalamazoo river spill is ongoing as the heavy crude in that spill continues to pollute and the company makes many returns to dredge again. No mention of fish populations or tainted water. And there are hundreds of pipeline spills all over America where pipelines ruptured and destroyed communities.

How long until someone knew about this?

Which brings us to exactly what would spill. The court decision says that Alberta can ship oil through BC whether we like it or not. Now there might be a chink in their armor here. What defines oil?
As it is intended right now, what will come through that pipeline to Vancouver, is NOT oil, or heavy crude even, is it bitumen, a gravelly mixture of tar like substance that will not flow through a pipe across the Rockies.

So the oil company needs to make that tar sand product pump-able, and they dilute it with heated water and certain chemicals to make it liquid. It is now called dilbit, diluted bitumen. The stickler here, is that no oil company will reveal what chemicals they use to treat the dilbit, that information is a trade secret. What some have learned is that whatever chemicals are used to liquify the piped product are surely carcinogenic and should be nowhere near human communities along the route of the pipeline. And I have not heard a single so-called reporter ask what happens to that so-called water. This is often called a 'scientific uncertainty'. Sort of like Nixon Talk, when he called a lie, a 'terminological inexactitude'!

Do you see the problem here? How can our first responders, who will have to react to pipeline breaks, product spills, clean-ups and possible fires etc, be able to attack the toxic problem if they have no idea what the product contains? Firemen say all the time that if they don't know what is in that burning building they are not going to send in guys or gals to investigate when a threat to life exists. How many HazMat teams need to be standing by? Some products in that dilbit mix can be benzine, tuluene and hexane. Toxic to the environment and downright dangerous to people!

HazMat procedures for workers, what about us?

And also the Court ruled that an oil pipeline can be built through BC and used, but it did say an OIL pipeline. They never thought on the idea that hazardous chemicals were being piped across some of the most pristine areas of British Columbia. Could they pipe cyanide through it? What onus does that present to our Federal Government responsibilities? Will BC have an inspection point at our border with Alberta to analyze what the hell is passing in that pipe? And a shut-off valve if needed?

So meanwhile, the powers-that-be keep saying it is okay, Canada needs it. So put your money where your mouth is Alberta and Canada, give us a fund of about a billion dollars for a fix if needed. We'll use the interest to train for disaster response.

This sort of smacks of what the Federal government did when the Lac-Megantic rail disaster occurred, resulting in oil fires and explosions that killed 42 people and destroyed all but three of the downtown buildings. The government enacted a law stating that railroads now had to inform communities when dangerous cargo was moving through their towns. Sounds good huh?
But wait, they only have to tell you up to a YEAR AFTER those goods have passed by!

The question remains; Can a people be exposed to danger by a court ruling?

You trying to keep the faith too? I am at the edge of losing mine.

And I haven't even mentioned endangered Orcas or already dwindling BC wild salmon runs yet! Fish don't swim too good in sludge. Trees don't grow either.

Building 7 commits suicide

The before pic

 

WT7 before pic

World Trade Seven suicided
 you must watch this

 Sure and it is true, Dick Cheney told me so ........ the d on the end of suicide is NOT a typo.

The term has come into colloquial use because hundreds of people have been suicided since 9/11, witnesses to something mostly, many by shooting themselves twice, some in the back of the head.



And you trusted BBC news too didn't you? Sure, we all did ... until that day. Click this link for the 'on the moment' coverage by BBC's Jane Standley and wonder about the link suddenly scrambling itself and wonder WHY it begins to scramble?

WT7 just sitting there?

 watch this one too

Is that an agenda or what? Do you still trust BBC news? These so-called news people people are being totally duped and controlled. Do you think someone was calling out in panic, "Oh no, it isn't down yet, kill that BBC feed!" Did BBC air their response before they were supposed to? What was the script for Jane, and when did she get it?

And you have the nerve to ridicule conspiracy theorists? hahaha.


To some it is too painful to remember, but to others, too painful to forget.

NOTA BENE!  2021. There is such a thing now happening on posts, articles, social media that is known as 'Stealth Editing', where those who may have written something, or others working on their behalf to an agenda, go back to the articles they can access and make changes in favor of whomever needs a better picture of what they have really done. This is why so many articles disappear over time, or suddenly take on a different tone or intent to what was originally posted. It is the changing of history.

Hey Big Spender ♪♪

Canucks' Jim Benning has ways of getting rid of the team owners' money! One believes the Aquilini brothers can afford it.

How to spend must be in the Hockey GM's manual -

Loui Ericksson - few goals since signed - 6.3 MILLION dollars a year for 4 more years!

Three mediocre Free Agents signed last year - Antoine Rouselle, (penalty leader) Tim Schaller, Jay Beagle, all have limited ice time - all older, all on 4 YEAR contracts.

Canucks still paying half of Roberto Luongo's 10 million dollar salary while he plays in Florida.

Canucks paying Sam Gagner's wages while he plays in the AHL for a team NOT related to Utica, the teams' AHL farm team. Maybe checking Canucks' young prospects if he plays against the Comets?  Bad situation.

Michael Del Zotto just traded to Sharks, Canucks will 'pick up' 25% of his salary too!

Is Trevor Linden being paid still because they got rid of a guy who wanted to build Canucks through the draft slowly? While Benning undermined the President and convinced the spaghetti brothers he could get the team winning right now? IF they got rid of the Trevor thorn? Preventing Benning from doing some Matts Sundin and Mark Messier-like deals? Is there anyone left who believes the Canucks could beat any other team four out of seven in a playoff series?

One would almost think the Aquilini brothers are spending Daddy's money all this time and are not so smart after all? They seem to be handcuffed by the situation Benning has put them in. Is it all about Italian ego now?

Don't be taken in by the Pettersson impact, the team does little without him and Boesser needs someone who can pass the puck or receive it. Not likely among the soft players around him with the exception of workhorse Bo Horvat, who is being run to death trying to save Travis Green's job. And poor Travis can't sit the poor players without inciting Benning's wrath for embarrassing him!

And there is still doubt about Green's ego when he sat Boesser TWO games for his first NHL start! And gave the Sedins about 5 minutes per game (ego again) until he realized the Sedins were all he had until Pettersson arrived! And consider that instead of Benning calling the above mentioned fifth liners as Mentors to the young players, what effect the Sedins would have had on Pettersson's development?

And we hear that Quinn Hughes, already drafted but finishing up with his own team, (?) won't be signing anything until the end of the NHL season? Why? Benning said it is okay with him, but is it? Hughes is billed as the savior to the team, Is Quinn considering if he actually wants to play for Vancouver? Sometimes agents put that prospect to their client when something isn't quite right. And brother Jack is coming up for draft. The Hughes brothers want to play together and we all know that Benning is no Brian Burke to get them both.

Boesser has not signed a real contract yet, and is still on his entry level contract, and also his agent has let it be known that nothing will happen until season end. Does that make anyone nervous? Petterson will be on entry level another year. Do agents consider the management of the team while advising their clients? Is the toughness of the Canucks a factor if whether he will sign here? Is his future only a target with a coach who meekly looks away when his star is attacked? Can he look forward to injuries as part of his hockey life?
Pettersson is already being compared to Gretsky but maybe we need a winger to compare with Dave Semenko? Where is the gritty Matt Cook when we need him?
Would all that money draining from the Canucks' war chest influence the dollars being offered to their star players?


Benning thinks he can trade Edler for the end of the season, then get him back for next year again! If you discard a top player he tends to lose his loyalty to the team! And should ANY player on the Canucks make less than Loui?

Benning has ways of getting rid of the team owner's money. Do the Aquilinis have enough to keep him around yet another year when it is obvious his first GM job is way over his head? His mistake list is longer than the team roster! Does Travis Green have the kind of fire in his gut to run an NHL team? Does he get angry enough to take a personal penalty sometimes, for showing the league faults in not protecting their own entertainment stars? 'I didn't see what happened' is NOT an answer, it is an excuse.

Sorry, look at the team and the obvious answer is NO!

What's next? Fin cheering for the San Diego Chicken while billing the Canucks for Orca skin?

 

Bitches

 1 Year later and this tragedy is being faded into oblivion .... the problem is that every kid has a camera, and can post live action BEFORE the police, FBI, etc can confiscate their camera and start a coverup, (IF they are up to something) the other problem is that people can now review that action on social media, and make their own decisions about what happened, more often than not, that they disbelieve the official story. If you have time, go through this timeline, there is nothing incredible here,

Clever Conceptions

The best inventions are always to serve you better. Some of these thoughts must have been rewarded with bonuses for the brainy idea people!

One of the very first brain-storming sessions might have seen the CEO of a company at a meeting of department heads, he looks bleak as he declares, "I'm afraid we can no longer put 16 ounces of product into our boxes, we must use a smaller amount to be profitable. We'll have to cut it down to 12."
To which a bright young wit replies, "But we don't have to make the boxes smaller." And so started the trend that pisses off many consumers.

The Aero Chocolate bar - 50% of what you pay for is air! "Let's pump air into the liquid mix of chocolate, it'll fluff up the bar and actually put 50% LESS chocolate but still look big!"
The guy in that room must have got a Vice Presidency in charge of Prevarication! Kind of fitting that the Aero comes from Nestle, which loves ripping people off.

Were not sure if the Nestles guy stole the idea of air from those tooth-paste companies who program their toothpaste filler machines to inject a huge air pocket into the tube so when you squeeze after the first two brushings nothing comes out until you get rid of all that air you just paid for.

And there are those pill vials, that give you a huge wad of cotton instead of filling it with medicine pills! You're supporting the cotton industry AND Big Pharma. They use more cotton than the Levi corporation.

But that's not even in the ballpark of more sinister ideas and inventions, some of them a foreshadowing of a stultifying potential. Have a look at these and see how many you have embraced after concentrated spin from back room manipulators? All under the guise of using data to serve you better! The information merchants are hard at it, and rarely for your benefit. The modern world is becoming downright scary.

Is your smart phone too smart? Is it spying on you? Of course it was/is. It just came out that Google spies on you and even when your phone is off it can still send messages to - someone- . We all saw the Bourne movies when Matt Damon just opened his phone and tossed out the SIM card. Or took the battery out so the phone wouldn't track him with no power. Jason could go 'off the grid' at will.
But not anymore.
The secret powers counteracted that action very quickly by sealing your battery and SIM card into the case! What a great idea to stop you from disappearing without sending info to - someone -. Now you have to pry the phone apart to get into it, and things inside are designed to break if you try!

Computers now do the same thing! Your home puter can be known to anyone, but your traveling laptop? Hmm. You used to have an extra battery in Toshibas and other laptops. You could just click a button and the battery fell out for a new one if you were not convenient to a charger.
No more, that battery now stays secreted into your machine so you can be tracked anywhere you go. You can turn your computer off, but not your battery! Sending GPS info to - someone -. That inbuilt battery means your computer can stay awake all night, perhaps recording your snores or listening to your conversations when you believe you are whisper safe from surveillance. Not so, someone is watching and hearing your comments. Just because that little glowing red light is not on, doesn't mean your webcam is not spying on you.

The low tech foil for this one is a piece of paper folded over the camera lens. Even former FBI Director James Comey said once that everyone should put opaque tape over their computer webcams to protect their privacy. That sounds terribly simplistic, but it works. (and he acknowledged the spying)
But there are plenty of people, not just the NSA or FBI, but also creeps, criminals, teachers and creditors, who will use your webcam, and also your computer's microphone, to spy on you. But we're not talking about the common criminals, are we.

And who has not Googled embroidery on their computer and got sewing machine ads for weeks after! Google tracks everything you search for. Everything. But of course they say they do it for better ads targeted for you. (Try DuckDuckGo or Startpage for privacy from tracking)

Smart TVs can access the internet now. Of course they have voice recognition and only surf if you tell them you are looking for the actors in that show you are watching. Right? Wrong. A magazine recently bought a new Smart TV, took it apart and discovered a camera implanted BEHIND the screen which watched YOU watching TV!
What if you subscribe to that porn channel? Somebody might have seen you doing, THAT! OMG! What if you're like me and tried watching the film, 'The Right Stuff' and turned it off because it was straight propaganda! What message does that send to - someone - about your patriotism?
But regardless, that is a true intrusion into your privacy! The companies who do it say they just want to see your reaction to certain advertising, to make better commercials for YOU in the future! Sure they do. Makes me wonder what their vision is of our future. Well I know what it is, keep reading.

And of course you know that the 'smart-meter' that the electric company installed on your house is telling - someone - if you are at home or not, and what time you arrive home, and what time you leave in the morning. But you knew that, didn't you?


Here is one of the best yet, the CIA guy who brought this one up at a meeting in their lead-shielded three-stories-underground basement bunker probably got rewarded a tropical island for it -  Scenario; "Let's get a little device that listens to everything you say in your home, a perfect high tech spy, and put it into people's houses, and it can send us all the info it collects." Erp!

"How would we ever do that," the Director of Dirty Tricks asks, while wiping his nose on his sleeve, "without them knowing?"
The response from Special Agent Wit is pure gold, "Oh they will know. We'll just tell the people it is good for them, protects them from harm, from terrorists and can make their lives wonderful like an old time Disney sleepy town show! You know, like Archie and Veronica and the worst thing in life is a pimple. But it will be sending a report to us on a regular schedule."
Director of D.T., scratching his spinning head asks, "Would they buy such an idea?"
"YES, virtually buy it in a store, actually pay dollars for it! The people will be implanting a CIA spy right into their homes themselves and love it because it can be asked a question and immediately tell us what Ginger's measurements are while watching Gilligan and the Skipper!" He took applause from his peers on that one.
And you thought a child monitor was good.
Director of D.T. Now itching with nervous excitement. "That's a reach isn't it?"  Nope. Here's how it will work  ....

.... and now the public is shopping for an Echo, Apple Siri and Homepod, Google Home Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Microsoft Cortana, all capable of spying on you 24/7. You can bet your Echo chatter is reverberating through many dark subterranean vaults.

I downloaded the newest Windows 10 when it became available, which included Cortana, a 'personal assistant', read some things about it and decided I would go back to my Windows 8.1, because that mystic Windows 10 design made me wonder who was really behind that lighted blue logo window.
I found out that Cortana, even though I had recovered 8.1 onto my puter, STILL ran itself! Took me a long time to get rid of that spy. If I ever did!
And you can change Alexa's voice to a sexy whisper, as she obediently does what she is told, all while she is digitizing your voice and sending every word to - someone - . Don't ask her about her CIA connection though, she kind of panics and pouts.

Your car's GPS follows you. NorthStar with a warm friendly voice, says. "I am here with you, just turn left in one mile, all is just fine, don't worry." But if you have anything like a new automobile, you have lots of other computers built in now too, including a little black box, like aircraft have that can tell exactly what you were doing before your crashed! And because it can send out info too, your car can now be hacked and taken control of remotely! Stopping, speeding and steering, wherever - someone - else wants you to go. When you press the gas pedal you're not stretching a wire to your carburetor, you're sending an electronic signal to the engine. One that can he sent remotely by a hacker!

Perhaps a terrifying effect of that one is when investigative journalist Michael Hastings, was hot on the trail of a corrupt military official and his new Mercedes crashed late one night at high speed into a tree on a straight road and killed him. The engine was flung 200 feet down the street! Buy an old beater if you are worried. Many believe Hastings' car was simply taken over and driven into that tree. There is nothing more dangerous to the powers-that-be than an investigative writer!

They caught Cisco Routers being intercepted a while ago by the CIA, tech guys who actually opened the boxes and installed firmware into them to spy on a target and then sent them on to the customers they were interested in monitoring! Of course they could not have done that without cooperation from the company.

And how many other software programs have 'backdoor' access now for that - someone - who needs to know what you are doing in real time? (check out my post on Microsoft being threatened with a breakup some years ago) and Apple made a big legal stink about the potential interference of the FBI!
They invented the system called Carnivore, (scary name) that could be secretly installed on any computer to monitor emails and your online travels. You might not want to search that one, when you do, it stops working and inserts a page that says there is an error and you should click stuff to fix it!

Click your computer off is the thing to do right away! Probably too late, your IP number will already be recorded. Unless you're using the Tor browser, they already know who and where you are.
Clicking an x on some screens doesn't mean 'close' it can also mean 'install'. If you cannot read the HTML, you don't know what it means. Are you afraid yet?

A song I have which was then written about Russia, but now ....
     A knock on the door about a quarter to four,
     they came and then they took me away.
     I dared to disagree and someone told on me,
     they take down everything that you say.
Russia or America?


Do you ever see those questions on Facebook and other social media that say fill out this to find out what your lipstick color tells people about you? Or what car you should buy for your specific personality? Or what is a perfect match for your lover? Something silly like that? In order to do the survey, you have to tell THEM a LOT about YOU! Information that should be on your no-go privacy list. But people still do it and get some answer that says they are smart, inventive, loving and would make a good spouse! Hmm. Meanwhile thanks for giving them your DOB, (date of birth) place of birth, mother's maiden name, high school, best friend and first dog! All meant to cross reference YOU! But don't worry too much if you DID fill it out, it tells them that you are far too dumb to be a threat to anyone.

There is another one - Now DNA companies can make you safe! They will analyze your spit or shit and tell you about yourself! Send them your kid's spit too. Heritage research - you tell THEM everything about you. You thought you were Irish and it turns out you are 19% native Indian, 44% Spanish, 34% Black Dutch Surinamese and only 6% Irish!

But now - someone - has a biotic record of you. One of those groups could be deemed enemies of the state sometime. Perhaps because the DNA pattern has lots of rebels in there somewhere. Someone will be choosing DNA types when they decide to eliminate a certain group of humans from Future Earth. Is it too far into the future to suspect that some military corporation could invent a poison that only attacks certain groups of people?

And we had those futuristic eye scans once, where you couldn't get into the vault without looking directly into HAL. But he's phased out now, we have facial recognition software, which can be programmed into mall cameras, street surveillance cameras, airport cams, football game cams and yes you can now be a Person of Interest and be followed, tracked and with certain software, be deemed a person with intent! Intent to what? Commit a crime, the time is coming when you could be jailed because it is LIKELY you will become violent. They can conclude this from seeing your face! Keep grinning like an idiot, it is now a good thing.

I recently passed an RCMP car beside the road, he pulled out after me, pulled me over and said the owner of the vehicle's license had expired! I was not the owner, but was permitted to drive the vehicle, but their license plate reader had kicked up that real info as I passed! 

So what is the point of all this?
If you haven't figured it out by now, you should know it is giving that mysterious - someone - the ability to completely control every aspect of your life. To neutralize you in event of any future protest or threat you might make to becoming a robotic shadow of yourself.

Taking over the world isn't just a James Bond scenario of Spectre, it is the future plummeting into reality. There are secret cadres working to that end right now. Which coincides with your end. Of liberty! You might say, like millions of others, I'm not doing anything wrong so I don't care. You have nothing to hide.

But that decision may not fit with the secret agenda. Someone else may decide if what you are doing is right or wrong. Someone might think the Irish are still angry at being treated poorly in Boston so long ago and could be a threat to a 'peaceful' ordered society. NWO again.

"Do you have your papers, Sir"?"
"But I am only driving from New Jersey to New York city."
"You need an internal passport now, please turn around and go back home, Sir. You have no business in New York."

Don't roll your eyes and look askance at me because you can't face these abstracted ideas. I'm only the messenger and you can choose to ignore these thoughts or consider them. You need only to think for yourself, something which is being filtered out of our minds in early school days. (a new study showed that 4 year olds have an imagination level of 84%, but by the time they were 14 year olds, that level was down to 13%)

You need to suspect, without paranoia, and just question what happens around you. Pay attention to your news, look through those news items for a true meaning to the actions. Haven't you noticed the TV news lingers on lost dog stories or titillating scandal? Who controls news? Find other sources. They ARE there. Stay away from and never trust MSM. Dig a little. Once you get a tweak, you'll begin gaining ground on the truth.

The intent, however tin hat conspiracy theory it may seem, is to subjugate every person everywhere to the will of -someone - in a dark castle somewhere. The NWO? The Dark State? The Elite? And how could all this craziness be implemented? Just consider how few people control how much industry of the world and you have your answer. SIX corporations control 90% of the news in America. Have you actually thought about how little difference there is between Tories and Conservatives or Republicans and Democrats? They are all just playing the game. Maybe because the same shadowy people control all the parties without even telling them what the game really is.

The new NSA Data Headquarters building in Utah is capable of storing and analyzing every word or action of every human being on Earth, and cross referencing it all for whatever purpose is needed.
Hopefully you won't type your own name in. But you can bet, someone, somewhere is thinking about you, maybe right now. Bill says, "Oh I know Joe, went to school with him in Seattle."

Aha, cross reference.

And you are swallowing the spin about Chinese company Huawei being a spy threat? LMFAO.

Beware of that - someone - you're already in their file.

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid YOU can't do that.
