  11. American fined for buying P.E.I. land

    http://www.cbc.ca/canada/prince-edward-island/story/2009/11/13/pei-american-land-fine-584.html

    An American who broke P.E.I.’s non-resident land ownership rules has been fined close to $29,000, with a further fine expected.

    This is only the second time IRAC has held hearings on an individual’s land ownership.

    The case dates back to 2003, when Melvin Griffin of Florida was visiting the Island and a 76-hectare piece of land in Pleasant Grove, north of Charlottetown, caught his eye. It had almost two kilometres of shore frontage along the Winter River.

    P.E.I. has strict laws regarding non-resident land ownership under its Lands Protection Act. Anything more than two hectares needs to be approved by cabinet, and in this case cabinet said no.

    But Griffin went ahead anyway. According to an agreed statement of facts entered during Thursday’s IRAC hearing, Griffin’s realtor advised him to find a P.E.I. resident to act as his agent and buy the property, at least on paper. Griffin found an Island man and loaned him the money to buy the property. Griffin then set up a company on P.E.I. and began selling lots on the property he supposedly didn’t own.

    In February of this year, IRAC ordered Griffin to produce documents about the original purchase. He refused, and IRAC levied the fine.

    At Thursday’s hearing, the lawyer for the commission announced Griffin had admitted the day before that he had done wrong. Griffin spoke briefly to the commission from Florida by phone.

    The case was adjourned to Dec. 11, when IRAC will decide Griffin’s additional penalty for contravening the Lands Protection Act.

    Griffin said he intends to put the land up for sale.

  17. C’mon Max, they’re not trying to get out of the dependancy. It’s all theatre. Both governments, China’s en US’s, want the game to take off again/continue! You see, for both it’s the perfect system to harvest their people’s labour. The people in china work for almost nothing and China’s government gets the bonds plus interest. The people in the US borrow to consume the imports and the banks harvest the interest. US goverment and the banks are one and the same. How about China, Max. Same banks perhaps?

  19. @Max Keiser
    The message was a bit mixed. The pole between what China is doing and china should be doing was unclear. I think it would have been clearer to say simply that China needs to do more to ween itself off the dollar. China has a multipolar strategy as does Russia, and Venezuela.
    Blair said of ‘multipolarity’ in 2003 in a speech to the US congress , “there is no more dangerous theory to international relations today.” Now Clinton has admitted defeat and has used the term, as a recognition of the loss of US status in the world.
    It seems to me that there has been a long term strategy of China and much of the rest of the world including Germany and France to undermine the dollar as world reserve currency.
    I cant imagine that China’s foray into win/win globalism is anything but a sure attempt to leave the dollar behind.
    The EU is its biggest trading partner now. There is still more to be done in China, Yes, but I think it can afford to do bubbles, it has a greater economic base to fall back on.

    @Max: excuse me if I am wrong about this…the Chinese have in excess of $2 trillion in dollars that they rather not have…and they continue to enter the treasury auctions ( the recent one was for 30 yr bonds and sold out )…and there is a rumor that they may be entering an asset bubble phase…and even though they no longer require their companies to guarantee foreign derivatives they MIGHT form some of their own dollar denominated derivatives and in my scenario blow up that sector of their economy ( say in the tune of $2 trillion backed by their own holdings…)…thus eliminating a meaningless sector of their economy and redistributing the dollars to real assets internally…thus eliminating the excess dollar holdings….any thoughts???

  24. All USA is gotta do know is Issue a New Currency .

    No one cares that China does not get paid back, the money has already done its job, not even China cares or expects to get paid and if they do they are truly stupid.

    China has benefited massively from a wealth transfer already, the process is already justified, we all know they have been able to lift many 100′s of millions out of poverty and modernise. They have just had to follow a manual on how to do it with a reliable demand to back it up.

    Sure they now have to fatten up and USA has to slim down. Everybody better off in the end.

    Wall St. Before Main St. for H1N1 Vaccine?

    http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Business/wall-street-h1n1-vaccine/story?id=9006587

    [...]
    So far, New York City has received 98 percent of the 873,600 doses of H1N1 vaccine allotted to them by the CDC, of which the majority of doses have gone to pediatric facilities and hospitals. Adult providers, which include workplaces, have received 6 percent of all the available doses so far.

    In addition to Goldman-Sachs, other non-medical businesses receiving vaccine in New York City included Citigroup, the Federal Reserve Bank and Time. And leading hospitals in the city have gotten vaccine including New York Presbyterian, St. Vincent’s, NYU, Memorial Sloan-Kettering, Montefiore, Mount Sinai, North Shore and Continuum. Continuum reported receiving 8,100 doses out of 48,600 ordered.
    [...]
    Ethics Watchdog Group Incensed By CDC’s Actions

    Still, the fact that some businesses appear to be getting the vaccine before some other groups has caused outrage among many doctors — especially in light of reports that hospitals and health departments report that they are experiencing shortages of vaccine.

    Dr. Albert Levy, a New York physician, told ABC News that he hasn’t received “a single dose of the injectable [vaccine]” and that it is “rather frustrating to me and my patients and truly upsetting to hear that the Wall Street executives have found yet another way to take advantage of the rest of the community.”

    Dr. Lisa Thorn, a family physician in Averill Park, N.Y., says this “confirms what we have known for years … even when it comes to medical care, people in high places consider themselves more valuable to society than everyone else.”

  45. Tim Geithner is the Secretary Treasurer for China. He is weakening the dollar and encouraging China to increase its domestic economy.

    This sets the stage so that China can buy up US assets on the cheap. The Chinese will end up with all the good assets, while all the toxic assets will be on the books of the US government and Federal Reserve.

    We should all take very seriously the idea of China buying California. It is not as ludicrous as it sounds. It is happening.

    The example of France during and after its humiliation in the II world war is a good one- De Gaulles Fifth Republic gave some respect back to France until it was brought down by misguided youths of 68 – events that are reaching a cresendo today.

  49. @Frank

    Your line of reaoning makes sense up to a point. What good is it to China to own the US. They don’t have territorial aspirations as far as I know (that would make a big mess). They are much smarter to take the US on a leesh, guaranteeing safety for the Chinese and getting value for their dollars over the longer term. Maybe the US sells them their nuclear arsenal under the guise of global disarmament, making Obama a hero, enabling a reconstruction etc.

    After all, what did the US do for Germany after WOII? The main issue is (imho) who holds the stick.

  52. “Tim Geithner is the Secretary Treasurer for China. He is weakening the dollar and encouraging China to increase its domestic economy.”

    Tim Geithner is the sitting governor of the board of the IMF for the US. ZHOU Xiaochuan is the sitting governor of the board of the IMF for China. Are you unaware of the ‘conflict of interest’ involved in being the board governor for the IMF for a country and also the financial secretary? The power structure is farcical: in reality Geithner works for the BIS because they pay his salary.

    http://www.imf.org/external/np/sec/memdir/members.htm

    America is ceding control to the EU through the G20 power structure which gives Europe an advantage in representation. The IMF continues to function as control vector, with the sdr fiat allotments making the IMF a global central bank.

    Copenhagen is a transfer of taxation from industrial profiting to a post-industrial world visioned by elite members at the Club of Rome. The post-industrial world will be controlled by a member elite from Europe with industrial output managed by supra-sovereign agents of the international banking elite.

  53. If anyone has any updates on the Ukraine situation, please post.

    I cannot find any MSM updates today. The WHO does not have any recent information even thought they state this is an extremely deadly emergent issue:

    “Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 is a new influenza virus that has never circulated among humans before. After outbreaks in North America early in 2009, the virus spread rapidly around the world. Pandemic influenza is transmitted like seasonal influenza but people have virtually no immunity to it. Mitigating its effects is a public health priority. ”

    http://www.who.int/topics/influenza/en/

    This should be front page news with frequent updates.

    Why was there this sudden outbreak of such a deadly and never before circulated virus (to which we have virtually no immunity)?

  54. warburg sidney

    merci, I myself try to get new info.
    -It is either a big hoax related to internal political stuff of the Ukraine.
    -Or an martial law test.

    I know we use a lot less carbon than the average american so all the wasters would pay their share and we would be rewarded for prudence.
    THe only thing that would be impossible to trust is the bureaucrats that administer it.

  56. Stiglitz declares that GDP is not an appropriate term for the post-industrial nwo:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUaJMNtW6GA

    Those who help the transfer of wealth and consolidation of power will be rewarded: as in Tony Blair for EU president. The nwo will not be an egalitarian social structure. The population declared viable will slave for those who are ‘more equal’. The countries will not retain their right to self-determination. The individual will not retain his right to self-determination. Self-determination will be a role of the collective will as dominated by the influence of ‘the wise men’.

    Words are being used to enslave the nations: words of humanitarian hope which belie the true agenda. The move to abolish gdp in the vocabulary of economics is a move aligned with the castration of the sovereign agency of the individual. To me this is antithetical to the term human.

  57. @WL thank you for the link.
    There is so much conflicting information among all the different sources, this is proof (to me) that deception abounds.

    @warburg sidney, Perhaps all of the above. It appears that mass confusion via intentional misinformation is being used to keep everyone off balance. Could be an attempt to promote a tainted or worthless vaccine or could be an attempt to make people reject a real vaccine. This issue has been thoroughly muddled for a purpose.

    LIAR OF THE YEAR
    OR
    HOW THE CDC TRIED TO SAVE ITS OWN ASS AND FAILED
    By Jon Rappoport
    http://www.nomorefaknews.com
    http://www.insolutions.info

    NOVEMBER 12, 2009. Well, the only thing left for the CDC to say is 300 million people in the US have Swine Flu and we’re all dead.

    So let me beat them to the punch. We’re all dead, folks. We just think we’re alive. But we need the vaccine anyway.

    Can’t somebody just shut down the CDC headquarters and fumigate the place? It’s still sweating the sweat that exudes when arrogant scumbags try to defend a crumbling position they established in the first place.

    Here’s what went down. A mild flu season. That’s all. But the CDC had gone out on a limb with cries of PANDEMIC and they were pushing it to the wall. They were committed.

    So they stopped testing people for H1N1 in JULY. From that point on, they winged it. They didn’t want the public to know it was a mild flu season. So they stopped testing. Instead, from that point on, anybody with a sniffle or a little cough or a limp or a pimple or a glass of booze in his system or a hangnail or a shirttail hanging out was diagnosed with Swine Flu.

    And even then, the numbers weren’t high enough, so the CDC just began to make it up. They had to. They were committed.

    Two days before Obama announced his “nationwide Swine Flu State of Emergency,” Tom Frieden, the CDC director, drank four cups of coffee, stood up before the press, and said “many millions” of people in US had Swine Flu. He pulled that right out of his butt. Up until that moment, the figure was somewhere around 44,000. He looked straight ahead and said “many millions.” And the reporters stood there and looked blank. As usual.

    But “many millions” is too vague, so today the CDC released an exact (approximate) figure. 22 million. There it is. And they said 98,000 people have been hospitalized with Swine Flu—these are the sniffling hangnail people who were never tested for H1N1. And then finally, as an afterthought, the CDC said 4000 people in the US have already died from Swine Flu.

    Throw it out there. 22 million. 98,000. 4000. Why not?

    Hail Mary.

    The funny thing is, the CDC and the World Health Organization have, in the past, released other figures—not about Swine Flu—about regular old run-of-the-mill flu. Flu without a fancy name, without letters and numbers to designate the virus. Just common flu. Stupid boring flu.

    And these figures are?

    Let’s start with the US. (Ref: JAMA; 289 (2); 179-86) Every year, in the US (that’s EVERY YEAR, NOT JUST THIS YEAR), 36,000 people die in the US from ordinary flu. Boom.

    So today, winging it, CDC stated 4000 people have died from the Swine Flu in 6 months. But every year, NINE times that many die from ordinary flu. And ordinary flu is not called a pandemic, and no one goes crazy, and the media say nothing, and there is no hysteria. Oops.

    Furthermore, the standard figure for hospitalizations from ordinary flu in the US—every year—is 200,000. If 98,000 people have been hospitalized in the US with Swine Flu in the last six months (and remember, this is a lie based on nothing because the CDC stopped testing anyone for Swine Flu in JULY), that would average out to about 200,000 Swine Flu hospitalizations for the year. Which is what happens EVERY YEAR, according to the CDC. Every year. Any year. From run-of-the-mill no-name flu. Which no one calls a pandemic.

    Now let’s go global. (Ref. WHO Fact Sheet #211, March 2003) WHO estimates that “up to” 500,000 people in the world die every year from ordinary no-name flu. Half a million. According to the Nov.12 update from the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, there have been 6707 deaths, worldwide, in the last six months from Swine Flu.

    Some very recent figures from the US and Brazil may not be included. So let’s say it’s not 6707, it’s 10,000. 20,000. Multiply that by two and you get 40,000 deaths from Swine Flu in the world for the whole of 2009.

    But globally, 500,000 people die EVERY YEAR from ordinary no-name flu. And that is not called a pandemic and the press doesn’t care, and the CDC and WHO don’t make a big deal out of it.

    So again, let’s cut to the chase. Everybody in the world has Swine Flu. We all died. We’re all dead. But we all need the vaccine.

The Vietnamese have been monetarily boinked many, many times, so they understand that gold is cheap as long as you can still buy it…Agent Smith and his colleagues left Vietnam for the US last month because it’s still “Easy Pickins” – see that YouTube video where the guy tries to sell a Maple 1-oz for 50 bucks and gets no takers. That would never happen in Vietnam, no way!

    The price of gold in Vietnam was 27.5 million dong ($1,539) per tael today, according to a telephone directory information service run by Vietnam Posts & Telecommunications. It earlier reached a record high of more than 29 million per tael, online newswire Dan Tri reported, citing local jewelers. One tael is about 1.2 oz of gold.

    … All victims of the virus in Bukovina (22 persons aged 20 to 40 years) died not from bilateral pneumonia, as previously thought, but as a result of viral disstressindroma, ie total lung injury: first comes the cardio-pulmonary insufficiency, and then developed cardiogenic shock, which causes cardiac arrest and death…

  80. @phil

    The culprit seems to be bacterial. There are bacterial infections that can spread though the eye. Virusses are never toxic (they don’t produce anything), bacteria can.So we have several options (intentional or not):

    - A hype driven mainly by the FTO website.
    - A bacterial infection due to unhygenic circumstances in Ukrain (according to some), somewhat dependend on weakened victimes
    - A bacterial/viral variant of h1n1 with different tissue affinity, more deadly.

    The cardiac arrest due to shock is similar to blood poisoning. Another theory is that there is an immunogenic shock (cytokinin), where the lungs are damaged due to a strong immune response.

    All the same i think the west is extremely vulnerable to any bioattack, you can;t have a life without risking infection..

  81. Is white male colonization still a possibility? Have we evolved beyond the tribal stage? Do certain families continue to lay claim on other people’s possessions? The study of the army ant reveals predatory behaviour which is quite humanlike.

  82. @merci

    I don’t believe that it’s the H1N1 virus which is causing death in the Ukrain. If it is it must be a lab engineered mutated one cause the H1N1 we have is quiet harmless. In fact more people died of the seasonal flu than the H1N1 we have.

    From what I read from the Ukrain they are not even sure which virus. They reported some H1N1 cases but they also said they don’t know about all cases.

    C’mon you are smarter than that. Ice grows and melts as it has for ever. It changes differently seasonally and geographically for many reasons. To make the leap that it is caused by manmade CO2 is not science.

    You confuse valid scientific inquiry with scientific evidence.

    While everyone knows that we need alternative energy sources, human CO2 is not a problem and the natural ebb and flow climate change is not a problem, never has been.

  94. The Next Really Scary Bubble
    Catherine and News & Commentary, July 1, 2009 at 8:07 am
    If you think the housing and credit bubble diminished your financial security and your community, or the bailouts, or the rising gas prices did as well, hold on to your hat. The worst may be yet to come. Carbon trading is gearing up to make the housing and derivatives bubbles look like target practice.

    Here are some comments on H.R. 2454, the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009:

    “economic colonization of the heartland”

    -Rep. Geoff Davis (R-Kentucky)

    “a scam”

    -Rep. Devin Nunes (R-California)

    “massive transfer of wealth”

    -Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wisconsin)

    “Carbon markets can and will be manipulated using the same Wall Street sleights of hand that brought us the financial crisis.”

    -Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio)

    And from Elizabeth Kolbert’s New Yorker interview with James Hansen, NASA’s climate expert:”Hansen pointed out that the bill explicity allows for the construction of new coal plants and predicted that it would, if passed, prove close to meaningless. He said that he thought it would probably be best if the bill failed…”

  99. Please pick holes in this…

    During the early-to-mid 20th Century, the Powers That Be (PTB) became aware of the implications of man-made global warming. They recognised the probability that this was a big issue that would have to be dealt with at some point. They also told their children.

    Fast-forward to 2009…

    The PTB of today consists of those children, plus several other wealthy/influential families who most definitely DO believe in man-made global warming.

    The PTB have had short-term and long-term objectives.

    Their short-term objectives have been successful – to have a good time, to amass massive wealth (which is now gold, as I’ll explain more about in a minute…) and obtain the social/political
    power to implement their long term strategy.

    Two facts: Fiat currency is dying. Our world is warming because of humanity’s industry-driven carbon emissions.

    The PTB VERY aware of these facts.

    Put yourself in their shoes for a second. You know the world is warming because of the mass of humanity; you are a sociopath who cares for little – apart from the desire for more power and survival.

    What to do?

    Easy. You use the financial services industry to provide you with massive profits that allows you extract the wealth from the working and middle class – to buy yourself lots of gold quite cheaply (until recently).

    After you’ve got all your gold, you then blend that with a growing all-powerful attitude. This attitude is not dissimilar to the mindset of past Kings who believed they ruled by divine power.

    So, we now have a wealthy elite with enough gold to base a new currency on – if there weren’t so many other bloody folk with no gold, who are also creating all this bloody carbon that’s going to screw the planet it up for me.

    “Wait a minute!”

    “What if I simply got rid of most of them. That would work!”

    And then we hear about Ukraine. Despite a media blackout and lots of scientific jargon, it would appear that we are seeing BOTH swine flu and plague-like symptoms in the same place.

    Note: plague has two main types, all from the same bug – Bubonic (attacks lymph nodes and the like) and Pneumonic, which fills your lungs up with bloody liquid.

    Swine Flu is a virus. Plague is bacterial.

    There are concerns that the new Swine Flu vaccine contains adjuvents (additives) that weaken the immune system. It is claimed by some that adjuvents are linked to ‘Gulf War Syndrome’.

    Can you imagine the effect a plague outbreak would have on a low immune system population?

    Enough deaths to stop global warming and enable gold to be used as a ‘proper’ currency by a smaller sociopathic population?

    I hereby lay claim to the ‘Sociopathic Kings vs The Expendable Class’ theory.
