G. Edward Griffin: There's No Place to Hide
The Financial Survival Network:
G. Edward Griffin joined us today. For those not familiar with his work, he wrote the definitive book on the Federal Reserve–The Creature From Jekyll Island, which details the shady dealings that went on to pass the Federal Reserve Act through Congress. Unfortunately too few people are familiar with this tale. Griffin has remained active in the debate and believes that everything that's going on right now is a prelude to The New World Order and universal totalitarianism.
When faced with the decision to Get out of Dodge or to fight to restore the greatness of America, Griffin believes that there is nowhere to run to and nowhere to hide. He likens our contemporary struggle to that of the early founders of America. They didn't run off to Canada or Mexico, they stayed and claimed their heritage. And he doesn't propose violent resistance, which is doomed to failure, but rather a campaign of enlightenment and increasing the public's awareness of the mass criminality and ulterior agendas of those in power. He believes it only takes one percent of the country to lead the movement that can take back America. And he's not talking about Occupying Wall Street either.
He is hopeful that the tide can be reversed. The Internet is the great equalizer, which allows vast amounts of knowledge and truth to be imparted at the speed of light. And this is exactly why the government and the shadowy powers are trying to restrict your access and freedom to communicate on it.

Want To Defeat The Banks? Stop Participating In The System!

Want To Defeat The Banks? Stop Participating In The System!
In Franz Kafka's most popular work "The Trial", his characters relate a short parable which has fascinated and confused curious readers for generations. That parable is entitled "Before The Law", and its message has been interpreted, reinterpreted, and agonized over by the labyrinthine contrariness of academia, producing numerous conflicting views:
Existentialists, of course, automatically jump to the conclusion that "Before The Law" is a message of the absurd nature of man's search for reason and structure in a universe of random coincidence. That "the law", as it were, is a superficial concept that humanity uses to make life more bearable. That we seek to create artificial social constructs in order to keep ourselves afloat in a sea of chaos. This is partly true. The law is, indeed, an abstraction conjured by men. However, the source of the most fundamental laws, being inherent conscience, is far from abstract. In fact, it is one of the few aspects of our existence that is undeniably tangible and universal. It is proof that all is NOT random, and that there is a meaning and a purpose to what we do here and now.
I see "The Trial" and "Before The Law" not as treatise on the futility of man's search for justice, but as a warning on the foolishness of man's dependency on systems not rooted in conscience. That is to say, we have a tendency to linger about idly while others make our decisions for us. We expect the system we live in to provide answers, to provide nurturance, to provide fairness, and to provide change where necessary. This expectation is a dangerous one.
Most social and political systems today are designed around collectivist methodologies. Their primary tool is centralization of power, and the removal of choice from the public consciousness. We are made to believe that the establishment is necessary for our survival, and that to abandon it would mean certain destruction. We are taught that the individual is subservient and inconsequential in the face of the state. This is simply not so. Like the traveler in "Before The Law", we have been defeated by our own expectations of how the law (or justice) works. We sit and wait for permission, when we should be charging through the gates and taking what is rightfully ours.
Even amidst recent and increasingly prevalent protest actions on the part of Occupy Wall Street groups, there are still some within these movements who believe the answer to fighting back against the corruption of banking cartels and puppet politicians is to hand even MORE power over to the state, and to collectivize our culture still further. The ignorance of this mentality is no less than astonishing.
The only practical strategy for combating the tyranny of centralized systems has been and always will be decentralization. Individuals must stop relying on the rules of a rigged game to see them through to the truth. This means that while mass protests are certainly a powerful tactic for voicing concerns on an international stage, they accomplish little to nothing in the way of meaningful change in the long run unless they are backed by individual actions to break away from dependency upon a poisoned political and economic framework.
The common assumption amongst Americans is that nothing can be done without mass action resulting in "compromise" from leadership. That the healing of our cultural dynamic is a "top down" process. That one person alone has little at his disposal for bettering the world. In fact, it is always self aware and self sustaining individuals who build better societies, not angry mobs without understanding or direction. Individuals blaze the path that the rest of the world eventually follows, and they do this through one very simple and effective act; walking away.
By walking away from the corrupt system, and building our own, we make the establishment obsolete. This philosophy could be summed up as follows:
Provide for yourself and others those necessities which the corrupt system cannot or will not, and the masses (even if they are unaware) will naturally gravitate towards this new and better way. Offer freedom where there was once restriction, and you put the controlling establishment on guard. Eventually, they will either have to conform to you, attack you, or fade away completely. In each case, you win. Even in the event of attack, the system is forced to expose its tyranny and its true colors openly, making your cause stronger.
The obvious question now is; how can each one of us use this strategy in our daily lives? Here are just a few easy applications:
1) Focus On The Federal Reserve
If you as an activist or the movement you support are not fully aware of the private Federal Reserve Bank and its primary role in the destruction of our economy, our currency, and our political dynamic, then your protests are a waste of time, and your movement will end in failure. Uneducated mass actions are easily manipulated, and can even end up serving the purposes of those oligarchs they seek to dethrone. G. Edward Griffin's full analysis on the history of the Federal Reserve "The Creature From Jekyll Island" and similar materials should be handed to every OWS protester before it is too late.
2) Take Back Your Savings
Do you have a bank account with one of the so called "too big to fails"? Is the culmination of your savings currently in the hands of financial monstrosities like Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, Citigroup, etc? Well, take your money back! This has been done by a few protestors and the response from banks has been outlandishly oppressive, including new guidelines attempting to obstruct customer access to savings, and even calling the police! This tells me that they are afraid. Afraid of Americans catching wind of the idea that the money they place in the accounts of bad banks is still theirs to do with as they will. If you don't like how these institutions operate, don't let them have your money. It's as simple as that. Not only is this an act of defiance that truly hurts the banking system, it also protects your hard earned wealth (at least initially) from the inevitable collapse of these fiscally insolvent blood leaching leviathans (watch Bank of America closely, folks!).
3) Use Alternative Currencies
After you take your savings away from the banks, you still aren't quite free of their influence. You are now holding fiat dollars, which the Federal Reserve, the foundation of all banking fraud, is currently devaluing. The idea of walking away from the dollar sounds ridiculous or even frightening to those trapped in the centralization mindset, but it is a highly effective method for combating the system itself. The dollar is a sham, and has been since its future was handed over to the Fed in 1913. Alternatives exist, and they must be utilized. Communities across the country use various scripts as a means to diminish reliance on the dollar, but ultimately, the best currencies are those that cannot be created out of thin air unhindered. This means gold and silver.
Central banking proponents have been railing against even the concept of a return to gold and silver currencies for years, and the Department Of Justice has labeled the use of such alternatives in place of dollars as a form of "domestic terrorism". This should tell you, quite clearly, that they are deathly afraid of activists organizing to drop the dollar to pursue metals. If the system is willing to use the law as a weapon to keep us from having sound money, then we should be rubbing their nose in it daily by trading without dollars. They should be forced to react, and in the process, forced to expose their true intentions for our economic futures.
4) Build Barter Networks
If a bunch of people can band together to huddle in parks with signs for weeks in cities across the nation, then they can band together to trade goods and services outside the establishment system as well. Barter networks grow spontaneously out of economic collapse regardless of what any group decides to do, but generally, they appear AFTER the worst has happened. Wouldn't it be wiser to organize such markets now, before a full collapse takes place? By preempting disaster with a backup or failsafe free market barter economy in each town and city, we insulate ourselves from the effects of the crisis, and, we cut loose from our dependency on the controlled mainstream economy. Localized trade makes it possible to walk away from corporate chains and maintain the circulation of wealth within a community, while countering the increasingly higher taxes caused by austerity and inflation that we are likely to see in this country very soon. It really is a no-brainer.
5) Grow A Garden
I don't know how to say this nicely; don't be a jackass, learn to grow your own food. Don't expect that our economy will continue to sustain you. Actually, you should have every expectation that it won't! If every Wall Street or Fed protester had their own garden patch and some stored goods, we would all be much safer. Food dependence is the worst kind. It has been used by governments and despots for centuries to cull the masses and dissuade dissent.
Sharecropping should be common in every community. Neighborhood gardens should be standard. Every household should have a year's worth of food. Period.
Imagine that you lose your job and every cent you have tomorrow. Imagine that mom and dad are broke and have no money to lend you. Imagine that food stamps are a thing of the past because the national debt has become so exponential that entitlement programs have been erased. Now, how do you live from day to day? Where do you get the nutrition required for you to continue holding up that sign or shouting that slogan? Think about it…
6) Start A Micro-Industry
If the U.S. economy is ever going to get on its feet again, it will be because average Americans bring it back through local industry. This means ending our community addictions to corporately produced goods and returning to specialized trade skills. It means coalitions of local farmers, craftsmen, and micro-industries providing goods and services with a city or county based market focus. Large manufacturers and business chains relying on the model of globalization will have absolutely no ability to rebuild mainstreet commerce, even if they wanted to, because their methods depend upon constant outsourcing and downsizing for survival. Private tradesmen will be the only people capable of filling the dark void these corporations leave behind.
7) Start An Activist Group
The establishment HATES when you do this. The spontaneous organizing of groups outside government or corporate purview has generated notoriously absurd responses from authorities, including accusations of "extremism", infiltration, and wrongful arrest. If this sounds frightening, then I suggest you get over it quickly, because this is going to be the norm for many years to come. The evils of the world are not undone by apathetic naysayers anymore than they are undone by mindless mobs. Without the coordinated actions of aware individuals with a common focus, nothing is going to change.
This group could be something a simple as a local barter network or a political discussion forum, or, a complex national organization geared towards tangible political action. It doesn't matter as long as it's based on the promotion of Constitutional freedoms, and its leadership is decentralized. Just make it happen…
At bottom, if we want to fight back against a system we cannot take back through traditional means, then we must learn to walk away. If the system feeds us, clothes us, and shelters us at will, then ordinary protest is pointless. Our tender parts are in a rusty vice on the autocratic workbench and until we pull them out, no amount of screaming and pounding will improve our situation. Independence is won through the constant striving for self responsibility. Freedom is won through a position of personal strength, not weakness and self-enslavement.
Numbers alone do not make a movement, and the elites we currently work to supplant are not going to flinch at a few random protests. In all likelihood they will welcome these actions as a useful distraction. Tyrants don't fear the torches and pitchforks anymore. What they do fear is balanced insight, self reliance, and exceptional force of will. A handful of men with these attributes are far more dangerous to a corrupt system than thousands of citizens driven only by insatiable anger. To overcome oppression, we must first overcome ourselves. The ability to step outside the paradigm, the ability to act without permission, and charge the gates without apprehension, is the key to toppling totalitarian systems and exposing the great lie of our age; that we cannot exist without the cage we were born into.
Guest Post: Want To Defeat The Banks? Stop Participating In The System!
A Pilot Speaks Out About Chemtrails and HAARP
by Barry Davis, atms/cl.
The intent of this information is to create a strong interest in Chemtrails and HAARP so that people will want to sit with their government representatives and encourage them to stop both.
First, a little about myself. After completing a year at technical school, I went into marine engineering. I joined Caterpillar to complete a four-year apprenticeship, and a further 2 years to complete my master journeyman status. As time progressed, I went into sales and management becoming the world's largest in the products we sold. During this time I became very interested in flying, earning my private and commercial licenses. During my flying, now over 44 years, I have flown many aircraft and have owned two. I love machinery whether it be a bulldozer, boat, plane, sawmill mach., pulp mill mach., building mach., paving mach., trucks, autos, buses, etc. If it is heavy and moves, I love it! This should give a person a good idea why I should have no trouble understanding how Chemtrails and HAARP function.
My interest in Chemtrails and HAARP started in 2002 by accident.
My familiarity with jet aircraft brings me to the accident. I was headed back to my office when I noticed a jet had overtaken me. The location of a high jet was a bit strange and it looked as if it was losing a lot of fuel. I immediately called the Department of Transport (DOT) to report what I thought was a severe fuel leak. The fellow I was put in touch with must have had about 79 questions pre-printed that I had to answer before he was going to contact the jet. I interrupted him to say, "Would you please make a call to the jet?" The fellow paid me no heed going on with his questioning. I finally hung up on him after asking him a second time to call the jet. I was a bit stunned. Here I was trying to save a crew and jet while the DOT had no interest in making contact with the plane, or anyone for that matter! Their lack of interest was perhaps the strangest minutes of my life. In retrospect, I have to wonder if they knew the plane was laying Chemtrails . . . I do not think there is much doubt.
The view from where I live looks at the Alaska/San Francisco Flyway. The events of that afternoon left that trail embedded in my mind; I found it hard to not look up. I started seeing the dozens of the same white lines during each day. A long-time aviation family I knew introduced me to the word Chemtrails. Now I actually had something to look up and discuss with others, although most were not familiar with the term.
If you try to discuss Chemtrails with others, you may well find yourself very frustrated. Many do not want to be involved, which is a central problem of having Chemtrails stopped. I'm ever so pleased to say that many are finally beginning to ask what the white lines in the sky really are. As more people get involved in understanding the chemical make-up, we will eventually have them stopped.
Initially, in the late 1990s or perhaps earlier, the Aluminium Oxide portion of Chemtrails was being used to reflect sunlight and help cool our Earth in a project which has come to be known as geo-engineering. Investigators then became curious and began conducting lab tests on air samples.
The following list of ingredients was born:
Aluminum Oxide
Barium Oxide (see recent study here)
Bacteria such as Anthrax and Pneumonia Nine chemicals, including Acetylcholine Chloride
Twenty six heavy metals including Arsenic, Gold, Lead, Mercury, Silver, Uranium and Zinc
Four molds and fungi
Seven viruses
Two cancers
Two vaccines
Two sedatives
E.coli Salmonella
I know there are a lot of other banned ingredients reported as well.
I think, in all honesty, people must ask what most of these ingredients have to do with sun reflection? I personally feel these ingredients are on their way to making our Earth and oceans sterile. Eating vegetables polluted by the above list very well could be shortening the lives of millions. We know that some of the elite in the world want the population drastically reduced . . . is this all part of their efforts?
I'm sure most of you have heard we should not cook using Aluminium pots and pans. Aluminium is deadly to all living creatures and yet we allow ourselves to receive an Aluminium bath most days. Chemtrails are now dropped on us daily, worldwide! I cannot go into all the details of Chemtrails in this short piece, but hopefully I will pique your interest to pursue Chemtrails via the links I have included below. I believe that after investigation and research most people will understand that the above ingredients have no place in what we breathe and eat.
If we accept that the spraying taking place is simply good-natured geo-engineering to save our planet from overheating, Aluminium would be the only one involved with reflection . . . so why the rest? Following that train of thought, I began to wonder if and how the military might fit in all this?
I've come to believe that Chemtrails are extremely important to the operation of HAARP and other programs. The military is 35 to 45 years ahead of what is revealed to the population. Chemtrails are likely used to track armies, move viruses around . . . nanotechnology may use Chemtrails, etc. These topics are gone into more detail with a little digging in the links below.
How does HAARP play into all this?
The HAARP array is based just north of Fairbanks, Alaska. For me to go into HAARP would fill volumes, same as the mountain of evidence for the use of Chemtrails. However, the more you read, see, and hear the facts, you will then be more able to decide for yourself what is right. From my research, I believe that HAARP uses the Aluminium in Chemtrails as an electrical wire. If so, this may be why HAARP can travel the world.
Once trails are laid, the Aluminium could be up there for up to two years. Keep laying the trails, and you keep advancing. We now know that HAARP can cause specific earthquakes and we suspect other ailments to Earth. I say "specific" because HAARP scientists have admitted that energy direction is possible. This energy can be guided to where the operators want a quake. The US Navy that runs HAARP have stated that, they will own the weather by 2025. It would appear they are well on their way to accomplishing that goal! I wonder, with all the weird weather we are having, are the HAARP people running practice runs? I believe you will find that Chemtrails are more important to the military than merely sun reflection.
Then there are new diseases like Morgellons.
Again, I will not go into great detail as I want you to get involved to read up on it. It is a huge subject, and a disease that should not have been inflicted on Mankind. The evidence for this horror is mounting, as the links below will demonstrate. It is suspected to be in Chemtrails, and if seen on a person it appears as if worms have invaded just under the skin causing unbearable itching and burning. It is suspected that these worms are in the control of something outside the person, and are perhaps even nano-based. So what are we to believe? That this is another project the military has developed in their 35- to 45-year head start? It is very hard to understand someone developing such a weapon . . . if it is a weapon. But, if it is, it would not be the first time that the military produced a bioweapon. Please read up on Morgellons, as the more informed we are, the easier it will be to eradicate it. Cliff Carnicom's site, as well as Vaccine Liberation Army would be the key places to learn more about Morgellons.
One aspect of Chemtrails that is never discussed are the costs. We know that heavies (747, 767, L1011s DC10s) burn an average of one gallon of fuel per second, which includes climb, cruise and let down. Think of that for a moment . . . one barrel of fuel per minute. Your car may burn ¼ of a litre in a minute. A new 747 is a $300,000,000.00 expenditure! They must be maintained, which means a very large hangar. Many mechanics are involved especially if doing a "D" check. Each plane needs a crew, actually several crews. There are landing fees. Also included are insurance fees, liability costs, away expenses, pension costs and depreciation costs. Chemtrail dumping is a hideously expensive operation. If you add up the environmental costs, a lot of countries would be bankrupt. Dr. Edward Teller cautioned the US about dumping in his remark that Chemtrails will actually increase the CO2 levels by 50%! You have the direct costs of fuel/equipment, plus the health and future environmental costs.
Let's do a little breakdown just using the fuel costs.
Let's use $4 a gallon and a one gallon burn per second. That equates to be 60 gallons per minute or 3,600 gallons per hour. If a 747 is up for five hours, it has consumed 18,000 gallons at a cost of $72,000.00. To cover the world for a day, let's assume 50 planes are used. On a per hour basis that is 180,000 gallons of fuel….if dumping all day and night as many have witnessed, 432,000 gallons.
In one month we have 129,600,000 gallons of fuel. If we use the $4 figure, the monthly bill is then $518,400,000.00. Half a billion dollars per month! It is not hard to see with these numbers why CO2 levels will increase. In fact, it is easy to see the whole world wrapped in a cocoon of Chemtrail chemicals, jet exhaust pollution, CO2, etc., all leading to possible global warming. And also generating a hostile environment for anything to grow in a healthy way. We are spending billions down here on Earth to make our cars and trucks much cleaner, while allowing incredible crap to rain down on us, our Earth and oceans. This is why I say that we are producing sterile Earth and water.
Who pays for all this?
Taxpayers for sure, but which ones? Has Congress approved payments? I doubt it, or we would have heard about Chemtrails sooner. I suspect the US is paying for most of the dumping including the tons of chemicals. Have other nations agreed to shoulder some of the cost? I would say yes from my own experience where my MP and many others refuse to discuss anything remotely involving Chemtrails. I believe Chemtrails are but one item set up to cause a lot of mayhem and chaos for years to come.
We have to wonder who is in on the Chemtrail cover-up. There are people in the know I'm sure, but say nothing. My Federal representative (MP) who I have sat with says nothing . . . absolutely nothing! For three years I have been asking her in front of dozens of her constituents to give us details of Chemtrails. I've e-mailed her colleagues . . . nothing! We must all keep asking these people until we have a group that will represent the people with an effort to stop the dumping.
Monsanto has developed GMO seeds.
Could one of the reasons that the seeds will grow in much more hostile soil? We know that one strain of GMO seed is aluminum resistant. With dumping going on for years and likely to continue, our soil becomes the crap filter. The soil holds the crap and we wonder why we cannot grow quality plants anymore. The poisoning of our soil has been going on for a very long time, it is up to us to get a group of representatives from government that understand this and will fight to have the destruction stopped.
I've been looking in on Chemtrails now for 9 years; many more are getting involved, and many more are starting to see a correlation between Chemtrails and population control using viruses in the chemical mix. Again, if Chemtrails were only for sun reflection, then lab reports would only show Aluminium . . . why do we see all the other elements in the mix? My MP won't say a thing, won't do a thing; it is up to all of us to find the MPs and members of Congress that will side with us to make a change.
Who does the actual physical work of dumping Chemtrails?
We are sure a large tonnage is dumped by the military. We also have reason to believe some commercial flights are used for dumping. We do not know if commercial jets perform dumping operations while carrying passengers. If dumping is included on passenger flights, has the FAA and DOT given their approvals? We also know private contractors are used for dumping operations. Whatever the total number of planes may be, the estimate for Aluminium tonnage dropped ranges up to many millions which eventually settles into our Earth.
On the morning of Sept 29, 2011, standing in one spot, I counted 11 Chemtrails at 10:00 AM. With the coverage being so dense here, I wonder how many were in the skies of the entire world? One thing is for sure, Chemtrails are a very large operation and very expensive. Do we have any experience as to how this will all play out? No, and I doubt that such an operation has been done on such a scale in history. The one thing that is easy to see and predict, are the costs. Why is someone not screaming about these costs?
I'm purposefully not going into any one aspect of Chemtrails or HAARP deeply. I'm trying to stay simple and easy to understand. It is best that you hear much of this from many people so as to form what you feel is the truth. The individuals that I have chosen in the links below form an excellent basis for discovering the truth as they have documented it. Some of these names are: Jeff Rense, Clifford Carnicom, Michael Murphy's group, G. Edward Griffin, etc. There are many other names out there that have done extraordinary work. If you go through these sites and beyond, you will have a good understanding of what is going on. My goal is to have more face-to-face discussions with politicians, just as I hope you do. If this would be your goal in combating Chemtrails, but you are a little nervous, then join a Toastmasters Club as quickly as possible. Being an active member of a Toastmasters Club will set you up for any of life's curve balls!!
Earlier on, I had mentioned my counting 11 Chemtrails at 10:00 AM in the morning. Lately, we hear more and more of the world suffering from a lack of Vitamin "D". I can explain some of the loss. The following has happened dozens of times witnessed by my own eyes and the eyes of others. At 10:00 AM we had at least 11 Chemtrails overhead. By 4:00 PM this afternoon we had a 90% cloud deck overhead. Past viewings tell me we will have rain by midnight tonight. We would have lost seven (7) hours of sun today alone.
I wonder if farmers have noticed the loss of sunlight?
Through Chemtrails, we lose Vitamin "D" enhancing sunlight; sunlight that our bodies must have for proper health and mood! In the Summer of 2010, I happened to be looking out of my balcony toward the setting sun. Many Chemtrails had already been laid, with one plane passing in front of the Sun. Twenty minutes later, the Sun disappeared completely, not to return that day. After the 20 minutes, there was not a shred of evidence that our sun existed: it is lost that quick!
With Chemtrails being a worldwide operation, our loss of sunlight would be measured in the millions of hours. A lot of the time we now live with filtered Sunlight, as one radio station call it. I asked the radio station to explain what they meant by "filtered Sunlight". Their answer was that high overcast cloud was filtering the sun's rays. That may well be what they were told to say, but the true answer is that the filtering was being done by a chemical filter, not a true cloud filter.
Someone high up has done a masterful job of convincing thousands of people to keep quiet about Chemtrails, HAARP, and many other subjects. Having investigated Chemtrails for 9 years and HAARP for 3-4 years, I do not see anything positive about them. I only see negatives such as costs, severe negative health issues, no foresight into the outcome, and the possibility that we are slowly being killed, all part of a plan.
I won't, at this time, say anymore on this, as you should form your own opinions. The more we learn and communicate, the better the chances of putting a stop to this insanity. If we do not put a stop to this, the New World Order may well get the start they need which, in my view, means Worldwide Mayhem and Chaos for dozens of years to come.

Pilot Speaks Out About Chemtrails And HAARP
Michael Murphy: The Chemtrail Conspiracy
Michael Murphy the documentary producer of "What in the World are they Spraying". We focused on many aspects of the checkered board chemtrails in the skies. He first talked about the difference between chemtrails and condensation trails from planes. Secondly, he talked about the complications of the different types of elements that are emitted from the chemtrail spraying. Then he mentioned how these toxic elements are affecting the environment and the food supply. He also mentioned how these toxins are affecting our immune systems in many illnesses. He that the chemtrails could very well be apart of some sort of depopulation agenda. He also speculated on the masterminds of the chemtrails and how they could be one more weapon of the elite for a New World Order.

Chemtrails: Proof from an Insider
Allan Buckman is the President and co-founder of Microbetech, a Nevada-based bioremediation company. A former wildlife biologist and environmental scientist with the California Department of Fish & Game, Allan's 38-year career has given him crucial insight into environmental stress and the decline of ecosystems. In Allan's presentation at the 60th Annual DPI/NGO Conference at the United Nations (New York) in 2007, he spoke about the role of pollution in an ever-increasing plant death problem related to the "persistent jet clouds" we now associate with stratospheric aerosol geoengineering operations (chemtrail spraying) and discussed a biorestoration alternative. In his speech, Allan corroborates the data presented in What In The World Are They Spraying?, saying:
"The fallout contains aluminum, strontium, radium, boron, and many more metals, all of which have been documented in every drinking water supply in California and Arizona since about 1987. They only way that could happen is from air application, but no explanations are available." "The time for skepticism is over: whatever the purpose of these operations, they are destroying the planet."
Tune in as Allan discusses the impact of aerosol geoengineering on all life.

Recently, the question has been asked, What In the World Are They Spraying? The documentary with the same name answers many of those questions. The question the world is now asking is "Who in the World Is Spraying Us?"
The World is Now Demanding Answers and Accountability . . .
As an introduction to this article, we will first cover information to familiarize the uninformed readers as to the core facts and information so that a more complete understanding is possible, given this complex issue.
A recent report by CBS Atlanta detailed how some local citizens are outraged that such "crimes against humanity" are being carried out right before our eyes in secret.
In the report Sen. Johnny Isakson was interviewed on the subject of chemtrails saying quote:
"That is a theory that some people have, but there is no evidence this is happening. This is not happening."
It looks as if members of the government's upper echelon and even members of the Senate will go to extreme lengths to suppress this vital information from reaching the American people.
Not to mention they signed off on the multi-billion dollar per year budgets in an economic crisis, with little to no transparency to the public.
In regards to aerosol spraying into the earth's atmosphere, a recent update to data assembled by The Carnicom Institute reveals the chemicals used and their respective levels of concentration. The toxic levels that are being used in these aerosols goes beyond shocking – it would appear that these levels are indeed criminal by EPA Standards.

"The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself." – Richard Haass– Club of Rome

Fund for Innovative Climate and Energy Research (FICER)
The Fund for Innovative Climate and Energy Research (FICER) exists to accelerate the innovative development and evaluation of science and technology to address carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions and their environmental consequences. The non-profit research fund focuses on early-stage innovative research where relatively small and timely grants can significantly advance understanding, especially of the viability and scalability of proposals to address global warming.
Funded research projects are intended to produce peer-reviewed scholarly articles in recognized professional scientific and technical journals. Any intellectual property that may be generated in the course of such research resides with the researchers or their institutions.
Grants for research are provided to the University of Calgary from gifts made by Mr. Bill Gates from his personal funds.
The activities of the Fund for Innovative Climate and Energy Research fall outside the scope of activities of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. FICER is not a Foundation project and has no relationship with it.
The fund has supported research in a wide range of areas. Some examples include:
• understanding carbon dioxide emissions associated with international trade in goods and services;
• developing technologies to capture carbon dioxide out of the air; and
• climate modeling to understand possible environmental consequences of solar radiation management.
Report On GeoEngineering
A select group of diabolic oligarch globalists and their puppet cronies embedded within the United States government are now involved in what some would say are crimes against humanity. These tyrants will stop at nothing to usher their hush, hush global aerosol agenda into full swing.
According to a report prepared for the Air Force titled "Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning the WeatherBy 2025" the U.S. Air Force wants to fully control the weather on earth by the year 2025.
Far surpassing even the most horrific act of terror (real or staged), posing as literal gods, these globalists will stop at nothing to control the world by not only controlling the fraudulent banking systems but by owning the weather through a process (blanket term) calledGeoengineering.
According to globalist sponsored reports, our planet is in a constant state of threat and is being bombarded with radioactive solar rays increasing planetary temperatures due to human carbon emissions. However, vast bodies of research now show that that is not the case and that global warming is a another globalist myth, a ponzi scheme to collect a Carbon Tax worldwide, benefitting the very same group behind the curtain.
The myth the global warming "Carbon Tax" pushers have been spouting apparently can only be fixed by spraying deadly toxins in an aerosol particulate form into the earths atmosphere via large sprayer converted aircraft specifically assigned to perform Geoengineering tasks.
Aerosol sprays (slang: Chemtrails) are filled with a variety of chemical and metal compounds and are known to be very hazardous to human, plant, and animal health worldwide. This danger to plant and human and animal health has been documented in films such as "What In the World Are They Spraying" by Michael Murphy & G. Edward Griffin, who have also appeared on the Intel Hub Radio Show with Shepard Ambellas.
Ultimately, this issue was originally a matter for the EPA to rule over considering that they have the authority to sanction geoengineering activities under the National Environmental Policy ACT of 1969. However, documents such as the report to the chairman, Committee of Science and Technology, House of Representatives – "Climate Change" – Sept. 2010, U.S. Gov. Accountability Office which was submitted to all members of congress in 2010 attempt to put control into the hands of even a smaller group of people.
This report clearly is slanted and leans to take control away from the EPA along with other regulatory provisions such as; the Endangered Species ACT, and the Conformity Provision in the Clean Air ACT – total Geoengineering dis-info submitted to members of the Congress and other government branches alike.

The source of most of the dis-info is Obama's White House Science Czar John P. Holdren. The following was written on USGCRP letterhead;
"January 2011,
Members of Congress:
On behalf of the National Science and Technology Council, I am transmitting a copy of Our Changing Planet: The U.S. Global Change Research Program for Fiscal Year 2011. The report describes the activities and plans of the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) established under the Global Change Research Act (GCRA) of 1990. The USGCRP coordinates and integrates scientific research on climate and global change and is supported by 13 participating departments and agencies of the U.S. government. This Fiscal Year 2011 edition of Our Changing Planet highlights recent advances and progress made by participating agencies and includes budget information on each agency's contribution.
This report describes a program in transition. In accordance with the GCRA, the USGCRP agencies requested guidance from the National Research Council on how to best meet the changing needs of the nation to understand climate change and respond to its impacts, and the NRC responded with a 2009 report entitled "Restructuring Federal Climate Research to Meet the Challenges of Climate Change". In accord with that report's recommendations, the USGCRP is undergoing a strategic realignment that will ensure that the science produced is maximally useful for decision makers at all scales. As described in the new edition of Our Changing Planet, the program going forward will place greater emphasis on impacts, vulnerabilities, and on understanding the options for adapting to the changing climate. The program will also continue its long-standing support for activities that contribute to a better understanding of the Earth system, including observations, research, and predictive modeling.
All of these focuses will be reflected in the USGCRP's new strategic plan and its National Climate Assessment.
The USGCRP is committed to its mission to build a knowledge base that informs human responses to global change through coordinated and integrated federal programs of research, education, communication, and decision support. I appreciate the close cooperation of the participating agencies, and I look forward to working with the Congress in the continued development and implementation of this essential national program.
John P. Holdren Director, Office of Science and Technology Policy Assistant to the President for Science and Technology" – Our Changing Planet
Even more disturbing then that is the fact that your so called representatives have been approving yearly geoengineering budgets in the upwards of billions of dollars per year (as outlined in the document "Our Changing Planet – The US Global Change Research Program for the Fiscal Year of 2011, which is a supplement to the Presidents Budget for 2011, much of which is unaccounted for and not even included in the budget possible signifying even a more nefarious plot involving some black budget.
Back tracking to the year 2001, President elect George W. Bush established the (CCRI) Climate Change Research Initiative. A year later it was made public that the USGCRP or United States Global Change Research program and the CCRI both would become what is known as the (CCSP) Climate Change Science Program. Now, under the Obama Administration the legacy continues to move forward as the USGCRP.
A report entitled "Global Climate Change Impacts in the United States" released in 2009, documents how the USGCRP divided the US into nine regions similar to FEMA regions. Also tucked into the report was the statement "A central finding of the report was that the vast majority of climate scientists agree that global warming is unequivocal and primarily human induced" – Source: Our Changing Planet.
The document goes on to mention the devastating effects of climate change, including the effect on crops, human health and livestock.
But the most startling fact in the document is the actual budget itself, a mere 2.7 billion for 2011 alone (not including many costs) 24% higher than 2010's budget.
The Global Change Research ACT of 1990, SEC. 102, Committee on Earth and Environmental Sciences states;

A description of the subcommittee on (p.2) Our Changing Planet Reads;
"The USGCRP is directed by the Subcommittee for Global Change Research (SGCR), which falls under the National Science and Technology Council. The SGCR comprises representatives from 13 departments and agencies and is led by a Chair from one of the participating agencies (currently from the Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration [NOAA]). In order to align the program's governance with the needs, Vice- Chairs have been identified for Strategic Planning, Integrated Observations, and Adaptation Research. Additional vice-chairs will be identified as needed. The program is supported by the USGCRP Integration and Coordination Office and conducts many of its activities through interagency working groups that plan and implement research and crosscutting activities, such as communications, decision support, and information and data concerns. The Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) work closely with the SGCR, the Integration and Coordination Office, and the interagency working groups to establish research priorities and funding plans to ensure that the program is aligned with national priorities, reflects agency planning, and meets the requirements of the GCRA. "
The Subcommittee in question has now supplied the President with a supplement to the fiscal budget for 2011, which was presented to members of congress in January of 2011 on behalf of the National Science and Technology Policy – Assistant to the President for Science and Technology, John P. Holdren.
The (USGCRP) brings together a total of 13 different agencies and merges them into one single agency program that has been in the works science 1988 or prior.
In 1990 the USGCRP received generous congressional support under (GCRA P.L. 101-606). It is no mystery that aerosol spraying operations have been ongoing since the early 1990's. Prior to 1990 one could enjoy a true clear blue sky, a figment of the past in 2011 – where none are to be found.
Airship Proposed for Chemtrail Spraying
So just how deep does the geoengineering/terraforming rabbit hole go? The Intel Hubwas able to obtain a copy of the final report prepared by the University of Calgary under contract by Aurora Flight Sciences titled "Geoengineering cost analysis". In the report there is smoking gun evidence of the entire geoengineering saga from the secret bases, to the payload, to what type of aircraft or "airship" will be the most cost effective to spread toxic particulates throughout the earths atmosphere. The final report also included budgets for different applications for aerosol dispersal within the atmosphere.
"Existing aircraft are evaluated based on cost of acquisition and operations. An in-depth new aircraft design study and cost analysis was conducted to determine the cost of developing and operating a dedicated geoengineering airplane type. Similarly, an airship design study and cost analysis was conducted. Finally a survey of non-aircraft systems was conducted to determine how their costs compare to aircraft and airships.
Yearly costs of 1M tonne geoengineering operations for all the systems examined are presented in Figure 2. Some systems are easily written off due to extremely high costs. Rocket based systems are not cost competitive due to the large number of launches required and the impact of occasional rocket failures on required fleet size. A system based on 16Σ" naval Mark 7 guns was analyzed and compared to previous work by the National Research Council.4 This system requires large numbers of shots increasing projectile costs and driving yearly costs over $100B. Gun costs become more competitive if the projectile payload fraction can be increased from about 10% for a standard shell to 50%. With this and a few improvements over the 1940-era Mark 7 gun yearly costs are still in the $20B range….The primary vehicles examined to lift particulate to stratospheric altitudes and disperse them at a predetermined release rate are airplanes and airships; rockets and other non- aircraft methods such as guns and suspended pipes are also surveyed." –Aurora Flight Sciences: Geoengineering Final Report (p.5)
"Geoengineering may provide a means to create a time buffer against catastrophic cli- mate change while long-term emissions reduction actions take effect. One approach is to disperse sulfur compounds at high altitude to reduce the effective solar flux entering the atmosphere. This report will evaluate the means of delivering sufficient mass of this or similar material to affect climate change on a global scale. The goal of this study is to use engineering design and cost analysis to determine the feasibility and cost of a delivering material to the stratosphere for solar radiation management (SRM). This study does notexamine effectiveness or risks of injecting material into the stratosphere for SRM. Its goal is simply to compare a range of delivery systems on a single cost basis." – Aurora Flight Sciences: Geoengineering Final Report (p.6)
Operational Costs – Not Including Payload
The report mentions how payload costs are not included in the estimate nor are the base/facility costs and continues on (p.8) to say;
"This study focuses on airplane and airship operations to the stratosphere to release a geoengineering payload with the goal of reducing incoming solar flux. Airships are also considered for this mission. To provide a comparison to conventional aircraft operations, more exotic concepts such as rockets, guns, and suspended pipes are also examined….For maximum cooling impact, the particulate payloads are best placed near the equator. This study assumes that the payload is released within latitudes 30°N and 30°S, though North-South basing location had minimal effect on cost. Transit operations, flying East- West between equally spaced bases around the equator, were examined as a method to ensure adequate dispersal of the payload around the equator. Global winds aid in East-West dispersal so a smaller number of bases and shorter range systems (referred to as Regional operations) can be employed with minimal impact on dispersal. Region- al operations allow the dispersal leg length to be dictated by the desired release rate of 0.03kg/m flown. This means the airplanes fly no further than they have to, on the order of 300-800 km, and fuel costs are minimized." – Aurora Flight Sciences: Geoengineering Final report Yearly cost estimates from different dispersal methods ranged from over 1 billion dollars a year all the way up to rocket dispersed aerosol in the upper atmosphere at the cost of over 100 billion dollars per year.

Henry Kissinger's 1974 Plan for Food Control Genocide
Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will pledge with world leaders to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government." – Henry Kissinger in an address to the Bilderbergers at Evian, France, May 21, 1992.

Your long-term health and rate of aging may already be determined when you're in the womb, a new study has found.
Published in the International Journal of Epidemiology, the study showed that 22 metabolites in the blood – chemical "fingerprints" from before birth or in infancy – are linked to aging and could predict how susceptible a person is to having an age-related disease later in life.
The researchers found that a higher concentration of these metabolites in the blood was directly related to higher blood pressure, lower bone mass and lower lung capacity.
One of the 22 metabolites – C-glyTry – is linked to aging traits such as lung function and bone mineral density, and is strongly associated with birth weight.
Exploring the link between C-glyTy and birth weight, researchers were able to show that the gene influencing the metabolite levels could be modified epigenetically (genes are switched on and off, triggered by a person's environment or lifestyle). Those epigenetic changes might influence metabolism during that person's lifetime, which would then influence their risk of age-related disease.
"This unique metabolite, which is related to age and age-related diseases, was different in genetically identical twins that had very different weight at birth," said Ana Valdes, lead researcher at King's College London.
"This shows us that birth weight affects a molecular mechanism that alters this metabolite. This may help us understand how lower nutrition in the womb alters molecular pathways that result in faster aging and a higher risk of age-related diseases 50 years later."
The team of researchers looked at people between the ages of 18 to 85. They found the older participants tended to have higher concentrations of metabolites in their blood.
Someone aged 55 with a higher concentration of these metabolites would be older – not chronologically, but in terms of aging – than someone the same age who didn't have the same metabolite presence.
"The key question was, 'What makes people age?' not chronologically, but what makes people age or stay young, and what is the molecular basis of aging? That's really the underlying basis of it," Valdes said.
She said the study showed it might be possible to look at these markers of aging with simple blood tests in the future.
If someone had a high concentration of these metabolites and showed they may be at higher risk for high blood pressure, it would be possible for doctors to target treatment for that specific issue.
"What is going on with a person in their 20s and 30s that we might be able to influence?" Valdes said.
"Maybe it might be just losing weight, or it might be a drug, or it might be gene therapy. Whatever it [the thinking] is, is there something we can do when people are in their 20s, 30s, 40s that means when they are 50, 60, 80, they are not going to have as high risk of fracture?"
Another study found that what happens in the womb can have lasting effects on a person's stress levels. When a female is exposed to distress while pregnant, this can cause changes in the expression of a gene linked to the stress mechanism in her baby's body.
This study was from the University of Haifa and found that female mice that were exposed to "minor" stress, including changes in temperature and daily routine for a week, passed that stress on to their offspring; immediately after birth, the newborns had an enhanced expression of the CRF-1 gene (which is linked to the body's stress-control system).
The study provides insight into what mothers who go through stressful situations may pass on to their children.
"We are learning more and more about intergenerational genetic transfer," the researchers said, "and in light of the findings, and in light of the fact that in today's reality many women are exposed to stress even before they get pregnant, it's important to research the degree to which such phenomenon take place in humans."Report Typo/Error

Even Herb, aka "Southbound II" the fleets volunteer weather forecasting guru, sounded skeptical when I checked in on his SSB net and announced that we were waiting for a weather window to depart for the Cape Verde Islands en route to Brazil. "Whats your planned route?" Herb asked. I confidently replied, "Well head northeast to 38 degrees north, then turn due east with the westerly wind behind us, then turn southeast towards the Cape Verdes when about 400 miles west of the Azores."
"Sounds like youve been reading the Pilot Charts," Herb said. At that point I was unsure if he was commending my good sense or possibly wondering at my naiveté to think I could make a shortcut to the Portuguese Trades without first passing east of the Azores. My brilliant interpretation of the pilot charts would later prove utterly wrong.
|"My brilliant interpretation of the pilot charts would later prove utterly wrong."
So we departed Bermuda despite Herbs warnings of continuing calms. Herb was right again, of course. It took us a week of what might be called purposeful drifting to go 350 miles. Having the right mindset made a satisfying challenge out of what could have been maddening frustration. As the miles slowly fell away, I took a perverse joy in my work of coaxing the boat from one cats paw to another. Fingertips on the tiller, we ghosted along at one knot, silent as a shadow, leaving barely a ripple on the silky smooth waters. Speeds above one knot seemed thrilling and I watched approvingly as the windvane steered in a delicate balancing act of wind and sail. Islander became an extension of myself. Even when asleep, I instantly sensed any unbalance and awoke ready to take up my post as wind watchman. On each passage I learn again to simply pay attention, to stop listening to the noise of society and start listening to sea, sky and boatto the secret language of sailing.
And yet society was never far away. Several motor-sailing yachts passed within our circle of visibility and wed chat on VHF before they disappeared over the horizon. We also sent frequent position reports by SSB radio to Islanders owner and let him know how the delivery was going. Although we have a Pactor radio e-mail modem, we were unable to use it on this trip because we had not brought along our PC. Instead, we passed our position to the amateur radio Maritime Mobile Service Net, whose shoreside volunteers relayed our position to family and friends.
|"For peak performance of the SSB on the weather net frequencies, we installed a wire dipole antenna parallel to the backstay."
To ensure peak performance of the SSB on the weather net frequencies, we installed a wire dipole antenna parallel to the backstay. For other frequencies Islander has an 80-foot long wire antenna running from the manual tuner below decks, up through the afterdeck to the masthead parallel to the backstay and back down near the shroud. The No. 10 AWG insulated copper wire runs parallel to, but not touching, the backstay and shrouds. By switching from one antenna to another we get good performance on most frequencies.
Aside from the SSB and radar, which we run in power-save mode, our electrical requirements are modest. All power is supplied by two 55-watt solar panels mounted on adjustable brackets on the stern railing that can be pointed toward the sun for maximum efficiency. For a small boat cruising mostly in the sun-soaked tropics, the silent reliability of solar power sure beats listening to a wind charger or generator. Occasional use of power tools can easily be run off an inverter powered by the solar panels feeding Islanders 400-amp-hour battery bank.
We worked our way northeast until we began to feel those elusive westerly winds. The trick was to ride the edge of the North Atlantic High; too far north and we risked gales; turn south too early and we would be trapped in calms. In practice, neither can be avoided.
The expanding high-pressure area forced us up to 40 degrees north where we were promptly struck by a westerly gale. For two days we slid and tumbled down the waves with only a tiny scrap of jib unfurled. The windvane steered around the clock without complaint. Mei and I merely took turns poking our heads out the hatch like groundhogs scanning the horizon for signs of fair weather. Meanwhile, inside the boat a moldy dampness of salt spray mixed with condensation pervaded everything, dampening our spirits as well.
After the gale, light variable winds returned. Following Herbs suggestion that we stay north for steadier winds, we found ourselves passing near Flores Island in the Azores. It was an easy decision to pull into Flores. We had been at sea for 24 days. Our moldy clothes needed washing and our fresh food was finished, aside from a few limes, potatoes, and the mung beans we sprouted.
Part Four of Islanders long haul back to Brazil will appear on SailNet in a few weeks.
Transatlantic Weather Routing
Veteran mariners on the Atlantic seaboard and in the Caribbean know to contact Herb Hilgenberg (Southbound II) on marine SSB frequency 12.359 MHz at 20:00 UTC for the latest marine forecasts. Herb is a volunteer weather forecaster based in Toronto who has been providing free weather routing advice for Atlantic sailors since 1987. Log-ins start after 19:30 UTC. At 20:00 UTC Herb signs on and acknowledges vessels he has heard log-on and will ask them to stand by as he works boats by area. If you have trouble getting through, try e-mailing him at: firstname.lastname@example.com and for more information you can visit his site at http://hometown.aol.com/hehilgen/myhomepage/vacation.html.
The Amateur Radio Maritime Mobile Service Net operates daily from 16:00 to 02:00 UTC on 14.300 MHz. Licensed MM amateur radio operators can check in here and speak to volunteer operators in the US who will provide phone patches, one-way messages, or send brief email messages.

Jewel and I were born in the same litter. Mom and Donald had come to pick out a puppy for Mom's little niece Emily. She was suppose to have received one of Nakoma's puppies for Christmas; but her puppy died, only Slippers survived the Parvo that sickened Nakoma's pups.
Emily's Mommy still wanted a puppy for Emily, so Mom chose Jewel, the runt of the litter. In fact she looked so much like Nakoma, she could have been one of her pups. Then Donald chose me to be his, because his puppy had also died from Parvo.
After Jewel grew to become an adult dog, my Mom's sister felt she was too much for the family. My sis-fur Jewel was never anything but a Sweet girl. Mom's sister was one of those, at the time, who wanted a puppy, but not the dog they become. So my sis-fur went to live with Mom's pawrents. She loved Mom's Dad. She had a special run and turn that she did only for her Dad and my Mom. No one else. :) Mom said her smile was non-stop just like mine.
(I hope to not sound to unkind toward my sister, she did try with another dog, a Rottie.She did well with Sophie and her size, but Sophie was too large for my sister's landlord, he did not like that they had such a large dog, so she had to go. Sophie resides with my parents now. The Biggest, Sweetest fur-baby I have even known. In the 3rd and last dog my sister had, she found her soul-doggie. A Shi/Chi mix who claimed her heart. After my sister died Kiari went to live with my parents also. Kiari's sisfur, Izzie, from a different litter, also lives with my parents, a gift from my sister to them. :) Quite a group of furs!! Especially the size differences.)
Well a few weeks ago Jewel had a bad spell. Her dad thought it was her joints getting her down, but Mom believed it was a stroke. She came back and was doing well. But the same thing happened again. Her Dad was with her at all hours, day and night, checking her, making her comfortable and hand feeding her. She would try to eat just to make him happy. Well, last Saturday morning he found that she had left for the bridge during the early morning hours.
Jewel will be greatly missed by her Dad, Mom's Mom, and Mom's brother who lives with them and my Mom. Now she is here with me and we are getting to know each other all over again. It has been a long time since I last saw my sister. I will be helping her while she waits for her Dad to join her one day in the far future.
Mom is heartbroken, but so thankful to have enjoyed the many years of knowing Jewel and having her as part of her family.
Dear Belle,
It has been 3 months today since you left us. It is still hard to believe how much can change in just one hour.
Donald is really missing you Sweetie. He was talking a couple of days ago about how there seems to be a pattern. How he had his kitty Joshua and Mary Beth had his fur-bro Samson. Joshua left for the bridge before Samson did.
Then they shared the care of Nakoma, until we brought Simba home to live with us. Simba became his girl and Nakoma was Mary Beth's. Simba left for the bridge in 2005.
After Nakoma had pups, Donald picked out Bear for his and Mary Beth chose Slippers. Bear died from parvo at 10 weeks, while our Sweet Slippers survived. Then we found you Sweetie, and Donald loved you dearly. Now you have left him also.
Donald is hurting right now. The others do keep him on his toes. He loves them so much, but he still has that empty spot that belonged to you and will always be yours.
I have noticed that we are spending more time with your furblings now. If there is one positive speck from loosing
you, it is that we once again realized just how short the time is that we are blessed to be with our furbabes.
Love and Miss you Belle,
Mom and Donald
October's Party
By: George Cooper
October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came—
The Chestnuts, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The Sunshine spread a carpet,
And everything was grand,
Miss Weather led the dancing,
Professor Wind the band.
The Chestnuts came in yellow,
The Oaks in crimson dressed;
The lovely Misses Maple
In scarlet looked their best;
All balanced to their partners,
And gaily fluttered by;
The sight was like a rainbow
New fallen from the sky.
Then, in the rustic hollow,
At hide-and-seek they played,
The party closed at sundown,
And everybody stayed.
Professor Wind played louder;
They flew along the ground;
And then the party ended
In jolly "hands around."

EA3077/5460 Eyewear
With these designer eyeglasses, you are always perfectly dressed. The EA3077 is available in the Edel-Optics online shop in other styles from Emporio Armani collections 2015 and 2016.
Expressive lines add character to the classical approach, making the glasses a must-have for women. Full rim frames completely enclose the lenses within the frame. For a convinced eyeglass wearer, any other frame style is ruled out, with very few exceptions. The cat-eye frame lifts the face optically and its outer tips make the frame shape particularly favourable for square faces. Plastic is a very lightweight and flexible material. This ensures a long life and a high level of comfort. Green eyewear is an ideal stylish accessory for everyone who likes to emphasize their individuality.
With the help of our digital dispensing optician, your prescription lenses can be configured according to your own requirements. Anti-reflective and cleaning coatings, antistatic and lotus effect are included as standard for plastic lenses.
Even if this Emporio Armani is presently not in stock, it is worth ordering now, because the current price can't be beaten. In our online shop we have consistently low prices. You won't get EA3077 at such a low price, not even in the sale.

MTA Toughens Some Subway Rules
New York, NY —
Panhandlers, subway musicians, and others beware: it's now illegal to walk between the cars of a subway train. WNYC's Dan Blumberg has more on that and other new rules.
REPORTER: Over the past nine years, thirteen people have been killed and more than 100 have been injured after walking through the cars. So now, unless you have a very good reason -- like moving away from a menacing person or a fire -- , you risk a $75 fine for crossing from one car to another.
MTA Chairman Peter Kalikow says the reason for the new rule is clear:
KALIKOW: It's just a preventable accident that we should try and prevent.
REPORTER: The MTA also voted to prohibit riders from putting their feet on the seats. But it softened the rule against putting bags on seats. Now that practice is only illegal if another rider objects.
And in case you didn't already know: drinking from an open beverage container is STILL illegal, even though an attempt to strengthen that rule failed. So far this year, only about 30 people have been fined for that offense. For WNYC, I'm Dan Blumberg.

Martha Grover graciously sent me Somnambulist #17 for review. This is the second or third issue of Somnambulist I have read, and I'm noticing the small qualities I appreciate about this zine:
- The writing is consistently cohesive and crisp (how's that for alliteration?)
- The design and layout are clean and reader-friendly
- There's a "what's in this issue" page
- You can subscribe to it!
Somnambulist #17 features a story by Jordan Karnes about infatuation with the very dead John Lennon and a very alive boyfriend named Jon. It's a rare story that makes you laugh and cringe at the same time. Martha Grover writes about the plastic gyre, something most of us would rather not think about … and that's just the first 9 pages.

What is a good product to use for pest control for spiders, cockroaches, ants, etc. in nursing homes where patients are present?
A huge consideration here is the physical condition of the people in these kinds of facilities. They likely are going to be older people with serious medical issues, and exposing them or potentially exposing them to toxins is not a good thing to do. There are many insecticide products labeled for use in "Hospitals and Health Care Facilities" and you can review our listing of these on PestWeb in our Product Documents resource, selecting the tab Products by Approved Site / Structures / Commercial Structures. Many or all of these would be effective on these kinds of diverse pests that you mention, but the concern is whether or not they should be applied when the patients are actually present in the room. I suggest that you would be much better off avoiding this, and if a specific room did need to be treated with a "spray" application of any kind the patients in that room should be moved out during the application and until any spray has dried.

2002 Escalade with Front End clunking noise
My truck has a loud front end clunking noise when ONLY make a hard right or a hard left turn. This noise ONLY happens after the truck has been driving for an hour or longer. If the truck sits for a couple of hours or overnight you don't hear the noise. Can anyone assist with this? 2 different Discount Tire places have heard this noise and say it's my bearings, 2 different Break Master establishments say my bearings are fine. I have taken it to 2 different mechanics, other than the 2 mentioned, and because the vehicle sits for a long period the noise can not be re-created. They say they have checked my suspension, ball joints, etc but can not find anything wrong.

Hollyhocks at the peak of perfection are a sight to behold. This pure white variety of our longtime favorite mix of doubles offers perfect, powder puff flowers -- ideal swaying at the back of informal borders.
The common Hollyhock is one of the most desirable garden plants nature ever invented. Alcea should be planted in full sun in clumps close to every New England house and, if placed in a protected location, need not be staked. With the exception of our Perennial Singles, the varieties we offer are officially biennials, but we find that under favorable conditions they will persist for a number of years. (In the South, Hollyhocks are best treated as biennials -- planted in fall for bloom the following spring.) Flowering begins in June here and continues into August. Plants prefer average, well-drained soil.
Every state has agricultural regulations that restrict the shipment of certain plants. We're sorry, but we cannot ship this item to the following states: CA, ID, NV, OR, TX, UT and WA.
The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.
We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. Estimated dates for shipping are indicated in the Shipping Details box for each item. Please refer to the Shipping Details box to determine the earliest shipping time. Unless you specify otherwise, fertilizers, tools, and other non-plant items are shipped with your plants or bulbs. Please supply a street address for delivery. Kindly contact us with two weeks notice, if you'll be away at expected time of delivery.
We guarantee to ship plants that are in prime condition for growing. If your order is damaged or fails to meet your expectations, we will cheerfully replace or refund it. Please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-503-9624 or email us at [email protected]. Please include your order number or customer number when contacting us.

Latin Name Pronunciation: al-see'uh
Prefers full sun (or partial shade in the South) and moist but well-drained soil with near-neutral pH. May require staking. Rust, a fungus that appears as brown spotting on the leaves, can sometimes be a problem. Combat with applications of sulfur begun early in the season. Red spider mites and caterpillars often plague Hollyhocks grown in the South (A. rugosa is a notable exception).
