Is Britain on the brink of financial armageddon?

… Before the crunch, total government debt stood at roughly 40 per cent of GDP. It is now around 60 per cent of GDP, but is projected to soar close to 100 per cent in the next few years. But again, that is not the full story.
Treasury estimates of the size of the national debt ignore so-called ‘off balance sheet commitments’, such as Private Finance Initiatives (effectively, hospitals and schools built with money loaned by the private sector) as well as the massive unfunded government pension liability.
There may be other, hidden, liabilities. After this week’s shocking revelation of secret loans of £62billion made by the Bank of England to the Royal Bank of Scotland and HBOS at the height of the credit crunch, who knows how many other skeletons remain in the Treasury’s closet?
It is wise to assume that the true size of Britain’s debts could be much bigger than we all think.
I can’t bear to watch, see the face or hear the voice of George W. Bush.
The Bush Crime Family has done enormous damage to this country and the world.
This travesty of a President is not funny.
Maybe I’ll get my sense of humor back regarding these ciminals….but I doubt it. Their crimes are too many and too huge. Still to those to can laugh at the drug damaged, amoral buffoon known as George W. Bush, go ahead and get some enjoyment out of “it” the “creature” that inhabited the Whitehouse.
Not a humorous video (“Yes Minister” is a tough act to follow!) but I’d like to recommend to everyone the recently screened 3-part series “Addicted to Money” by David McWilliams. http://www.davidmcwilliams.ie/addicted-to-money
Bush did so many stupid things almost uncountable. things like this will stay with me for ever; http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/bush-god-told-me-to-invade-iraq-509925.html one of the many great moments. Best would be a politician/president that works for the people, doesnt kill other people, doesnt give money to goldman sachs and co, end the private control of the fed and so on, yet in a corpocracy/neo feudilistic state/system based on cronyism and corruption that is apparently too much to ask. Cant believe im gonna say this but Somewhere bush was better than obama although they both steal, rape, kill, pillage and plunder. Obama just lies, does exact the same as bush. The only time obama makes me chuckle is when he screws up to read the teleprompter. So seen by track record that the last 50 years none of the president’s worked for the people, i would prefer a joker that tells it as he experiences reality (if you had done some research in the history of iraq; everything bush said was just ridiculously idiotic), instead of a boring teleprompter reader that just lies. 2012 palin, now that’s someone who can beat bush for the funniest president ever, anyways glad i don’t live in the US.
Yes, it is basically taken for granted these days that nearly all politicians lie … and they don’t even care any more as if it’s expected of them !
@gb .. thanks for the link to 5th. Estate
Just finishing part 1 … about the controlled demolition.
… but why don’t these guys mention Ruppert’s WTF and Crossing the Rubicon, where the political undercover background operations/murders/lies/ etc. etc. are all documented meticulously ? Are they all competing for the “rights” on this uncovering of the truth I wonder ?
“Sorry Due to copyright reasons this video program is available for download by people located in Australia only. If you are not located in Australia, you are not authorised to view this video.”
@Y’all
yeah minister…well… amongst other things… you only have to look at it to realise it really was definitely for a certain for and directed at certain age group etc… never was a fan!!!
Can I take a poll where evryone is from
cause i have alternate history like
a King didnt care a rats arse about Jesus untill 300 AD plus Jeasus was 4 years old at 0 AD or BC AND would
And i could go on and relate it to “NIMROD”
Oh no! Sorry guys
But if you can come across a copy by other means (I believe it goes on sale on DVD in December, for example), then do watch it. I hightly rec it.
If I may expand on your idea with my take? It looks as if some news agencies may be seeing the light. It may well be that when the “Truth” comes out they may be looked at as the only beacon of “Reason” when it comes to the news. Is it a ruse? Is it designed to get us sucked in? Just so they can have the monopoly. Who knows. Agendas abound. The CBC is not to bad. It could be another shot of “divide and conquer.” Just enough info to get the split down the middle. Heck, if you can divide Star Trek fans you can divide anyone.
Have a great Sunday all and lets see what tomorrow brings.
@phil
yes minister was a extremely witty comedy but it created the belief that advisory agencies outside goverment were always better then civil servents – these “independent” think tanks gradually took over goverment policey and shaped and used tax revenue for their own ends.
@Phil – Yes, Prime Minister – I love that series, always nice to see again.
Sunday Video Club:
This is a pure historical documentary and is called The Wonderful World of Albert Kahn (Edwardians In Colour 5Ep. and Twenties In Colour 4Ep.) made the proper way as only BBC documentary makers can. A spectacular journey through Albert Kahn’s “The Archives of the Planet” project. His collection of colour photography and cinematography taken from 1909 to 1931 in every continent is truly fascinating to watch, together with a great narrative story making it a top documentary. Recommend being inventive on the internet and find the .mkv files for quality but her is a link to the first 5 parts: http://www.123video.nl/video.asp?q=edwardians+in+colour&CatID=&zoek=Zoek&familyFilter=ON
i enjoyed your two postings of burroughs. years ago, in an interview or, perhaps an essay, burrougs stated that we should join china if they will have us. do you have any idea what his perspective was on this?
The following techniques to telling if someone is lying are often used by police, and security experts. This knowledge is also useful for managers, employers, and for anyone to use in everyday situations where telling the truth from a lie can help prevent you from being a victim of fraud/scams and other deceptions.
Warning: Sometimes Ignorance is bliss; after gaining this knowledge, you may be hurt when it is obvious that someone is lying to you.
Just re- viewed this 3 Days of the Condor movie again. It’s very good and realy enjoyed it. Old movies have a quality which is difficult to find nowadays. Todays films are intellectually dummed down and only focus on action most of the time.
I think the ‘starve the beast’ slogan has the potential to become a BIG meme.

Stave the beast: ‘We will simply walk away from the system.’
‘A revolution involves five crucial elements: (1) a new view of sovereignty; (2) a new view of authority; (3) a new view of law; (4) a new view of sanctions; (5) a new view of the future. Any revolution that does not involve all five is more of a coup than a revolution: a substitution of new rulers for old, not a change in the system. — The battles for the hearts and minds of men are being fought today in all five areas. Points three through five are still up for grabs. These are intensely ethical issues. They are intensely religious. They will not be decided by technology. There is no group and no worldview that has a clear advantage in these three areas. But the outcome of the battle over points one and two is going to be decided in terms of digits: the digits of the Internet and the digits known as money. In both areas, the existing Establishments of the world are under attack. I am convinced they are going to lose.’
I found it. The actual quote is:
“If there is any political move that I would advocate it would be an alliance between America and Red China, if they’d have us.”
The quote is about mid page. I read this quote many years ago and now, with China such a major player, I think of it often. I would like know what he was thinking. The interviewer didn’t follow it up that I can tell and I can find no other mention of this in his writings.

“What is less well known is that more than half — 416 of them – were teachers or education workers, Novelli reports. The vast majority of these assassinations are attributed to right-wing paramilitary organizations with links to the Colombian state. Virtually all of the perpetrators have committed their crimes with impunity.”
Still on part 1 .. but I wish they wouldn’t keep playing those music clips in between and as background noise … it makes it too “snake-oily” for my liking , i.e. commercial = for J6P’ers , to keep them listening !
The message may be good, but I do not like that style.
I think it’s an attempt to make this area accessible to a wider audience that might not have previously been interested in economics and a bamboozling global financial system.
For me, I believe it succeeds in this aim. (Hence my reccomendation). It’s also got a different take that we aren’t always finding in the mainstream media.
I hope you eventually find it to be a good use of your time despite your qualms.

Also, the textbook tales about earthquake mechanisms just don’t gel, that’s for sure.
Fortunately, someone’s put it together in video form. I posted this a few months ago. The response was pretty savage.
Argh. Anyone still interested in arguing about ClimateGate? I just got through responding to an irate blogger — Texas lawyer/history professor Ed Darrell — who I accidentally-on-purpose incensed earlier in the week…
Is that your cat, we have one that looks identical, I call him Fleabag.
Skepticism is part of the scientific process, I find that in general you learn more about your own position when challenged and reviewing other opinions.. These emails and docs only expose the integrity of the process. When skepticism is used as a pejorative the scientific process is hijacked.
Re: climategate, yeah I agree email angle is weakest (thus most popular?), but something more concrete may come out of an analysis of the modelling code — but it’s above my level of comprehension or interest, so I’ll wait and see… I think an attempt (at least) should be made to develop the modeling code in an open-source way, and try to recover the datasets which CRU aggregated/lost/deleted/whatever…

The real issue is control over the scientific process, nobody can defend this as adhering to these principles. If they do then they are intellectually bankrupt.
Great side thanks. Found a great side through that were you can compare the ICE CAPS over different years and months.
Here I compared 20 November 1985 with 20 November 2009 so very recently. Not much difference and it seems that indeed the caps are growing again after melting before.
Indeed when Ice caps on earth were melting so they were on Mars. Couldn’t find data yet on how big these Ice caps are now on Mars. I heared they are also growing like on earth but you always want to see it for yourself.

“I shall say zis only once in case I’m flagged as an undesirable dissenter also. Other thoughts will not be tolerated here.
I too think MMGW is the biggest evil lie ever told. The had some Berkshire hunt from the Green Party on the Andrew Marr BBC show this morning who basically said in addition to ignoring the weather when thinking about climate, it’s now also necessary to ignore the temperature too.
The BBC, Green Party and anyone else pushing this are obviously Commies”
The BBC is Orwell’s Big Brother.
Oh, but it’s Video Sunday, so, let’s see, how about something from Norman Dodd, an ex-banker:
To the NUCKS looking for an interesting SPECULATIVE stock bet…
check V.SSP
new IPO with 2.8 Million Oz of Gold, and 266 Million lbs of Copper…
NI 43-101 proven resources…
out of Guyana, South America…
from what I gather in their MD&A, they will be issuing about 20Million shares around 35-40 cents a pop…
That is disgustingly CHEAP!!!!
She’s gonna pop from the get go…
of course… it is a gamble, right?
The results for a Google “climategate” search are now 722,000!!! They have totally ripped the guts out of the result numbers. It’s not even a subtle manipulation, it’s a blatant fraud. Google are globalist scum. Here is a screenshot http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg7/brockelever/climategate-google.jpg
So if Climate-Gate is the lie most rationally thinking people believe it to be, then WHAT NEXT?!?!?!
Start getting the Chinese to make more clouds to shield the earth from the SUN’s heat?
so as to keep that nefarious Green-house gas, water vapour, at bay?
One lie exposed does not equal a solution…
granted, cap’n'trade, is just another cash grab, i.e. tax on the poor…
“The pilgrimage began in Vermont, where Steven Rockefeller, in his role as dean of religion at Middlebury College, held a sacred Earth ceremony. Joining him and the other worshipers was Jane Goodall, the celebrity chimpanzee expert who has become a fixture at forums sponsored by Mikhail Gorbachev and the UN.”
Informative article on the earth worship religion that will actually wipe out nature as we know it. (Think the high-tech “utopias” of the Fabianists… no green at the end, just metallic grey.)
Plus there has to be hmm err hmm a moutain formed iether on the right side or left side of the grand canyon which should date back to the same date but other than these 2 points interesting angle
“did you check out my link on the first page(above) – you have seemed to have alot of interest in the IMF SDR’s over the past few month or two and know alot about them. Its interesting. I know Joseph Stiglitz has been past of the ‘elite’ but he has always been hard on his criticism on the IMF and their policy on developing countries. Now I know having a global currency is one more step towards possible regional governments, but his arguments for a global reserve seem like a way of possible limitations on the military complex and their ever -longing thirst for war expansion and funding. I would just like you hear your opinion on the article or about having a new global reserve currency that doesn’t benefit one country in particular able to fund themselves to no limit. (US).”
Very interesting theory about the expanding Earth. TnX!
What I don’t understand is how the total mass and thus Gravety would change if nothing is added? Listening now to the interview with Neal Adams on Coast to Coast so maybe he explains it later in the show.
It would explain the very big dinosaurs and if I am correct everything was bigger, plants and trees also. I was always wondering why that was?
Cause i dont buy into that crap of the river cutting and cutting and cutting and cutting into the ground over hmmm ssslurp millions of years
The freakin Ground is Level on top !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AAAAhh Jon stewart is back tis week , I wonder whats his take on Tiger in the Woods with his wife teachinh him not to use other peoples ……. well tis is a famly chanel ROFL PMSL
And yes, the concept throws a very different light on just about everything. Mind expanding!
@ Bonn
You would have a much better idea of the science/history scams; there’s so much evidence in India that can’t be wiped out so easily. When Clinton began bombing Iraq, he targeted what seemed like empty desert; turns out the target was the ruins of an ancient city. You can guess why.
In Egypt, they sometimes let stuff slip through into the museums, like aeronautic components machined with sophisticated ultrasonic tools.
Yeah, the river alone could not create the Grand canyon. I was just there and there are no mountains on the sides and the land is exactly the same height on the other side. The landscape is entirely flat at rim level as if was pulled apart, no upheaval. The other thing is that it has dead end valleys, water erosion could not do that. I would not discount some water erosion but not the majority of the puzzle. When I was there the story was a much greater flowing river than today fed by Glaciers, that probably occurred but Glaciers and water will form and flow in an existing crack in the ground. Interesting theory.
You would have a much better idea of the science/history scams;
Oh there is a lotta stuff u cant wipe out
Esp. those countrys dont have Oil or Cocaine
Take for Example Ankor Vat
You can trace 4 different civilizations 400 plus years apart all pointing towards the same constellation
The error of the Ankor Vat is not more than 2 inches or I think less than that
Oh and they line up with the Gyzers towards Orion
Interestingly Spielberg knows a lot more than he should
The thing is the explaination about history which is taught to us is just too simple of an explaination
Some Architects say they can’t replicate the old stuff
and then they go about yeah it took him 30 years to make
Who the F^^*^%k waits 40 years for completion ?
The great climate change science scandal
Leaked emails have revealed the unwillingness of climate change scientists to engage in a proper debate with the sceptics who doubt global warming
And if a personal monument took 40 years to make it would require i dunno 10 years planning before i laid the first Stone the foundation stone
“Oh we’ll make the correction as we go along”
Hmmm err BS
The leaked documents from the East Anglian CRU (Climatic Research Unit ) have proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, that the “global warming” scam was perpetrated with criminal intent to defraud the public of massive amounts of money, advance an ideological agenda, and make the criminals involved, quite wealthy. All at our expense.
There are only around two dozen individuals directly involved in the criminal fraud committed by the climatology “scientists.” These people, or as Lord Monckton calls them—idiots, crooks, and criminals—should be tried in an international court, for crimes against humanity.
I strongly urge you to watch the interview that Alex Jones had with Lord Monckton on November 27, in order to understand just how evil, and amoral, these individuals are.
the question is. Can the powers that be take us to world war 3/4 and or destroy the economys of the world or create a plague around the world if quite a few people know they’re purposely setting these things up and doing it.
Walmart DOES NOT have a higher market capitalization than all the gold stocks in the world.
Please check it out for yourselves as I have. It is simply NOT TRUE. I don’t know how Max doesn’t intuitively know that. Makes me wonder.
Walmart’s Market cap is about 211 billion US.
I stopped tallying Gold Miner Market caps after reaching 341 billion US. I didn’t count debentures, warrants, North American companies below 900 million in market cap, and only counted 6 companies not listed in North America. It was about 2:30 am, I had sleep to catch.
Casey Research posted a graph, Christopher M. Puplava DOESN’T CHECK THE FACTS and passes on the junk data, then Jordan Roy-Byrne DOESN’T CHECK THE FACTS and passes on the junk data, then Catherine Austin Fitts DOESN’T CHECK THE FACTS and passes on the junk data. Now this lie is all over forums, blogs, and Max DOESN’T CHECK THE FACTS and passes on the junk data in the “Truth” about markets.
How can so many financial experts have such a lacking knowledge of the stock market capitalization of the gold sector?
How?
I’m going to post a partial tally here complete with conversions to the US dollar.
@mep; thnx! i almost start to miss bush, with obama it’s all lies and spin; i didnt actually caught on to this (don’t watch much tv, and here only cnn as 24/7 news channel says enough) , was just looking for a funny video of obama that wasn’t about screwing up to read the teleprompter. But that sucks, nothing to laugh about makes it only worse. So what is up with the technical glitches? while you’re answering my questions :-p
I hope there is something wrong with the data that he cites from the latest ABC-Washington Post poll–it found that 1 out of every 3 people polled said that either they or someone who lives in their household has lost their job. Add that to the figure of one out of every eight Americans being on food stamps and one out of every four homeowners being underwater . . . not a pretty picture, and not something that is likely to improve any time soon.
In other news, looks like California is going to have a waste problem, because their recycling centers are being closed down:
You’ve bin bizy! The topic of the growing/expanding earth/planets could be a nice one for learning how to see, regardless of what the scientific implications are.
Now, a glimpse behind the curtain… can you SEE the fake in the second video? Later the fake was worked on and the old photos photoshopped massively, but these videos are still available.
Debunking “The entire market capitalization of all the gold mining stocks in the world put together is less than Walmart.” Max Keiser in most recent Truth About Markets.
Following are in Canadian Currency
Barrick Gold Corp. 44.5 billion
Goldcorp Inc. 33 billion
Newmont Mining 26.9 billion
Kinross Gold 14.3 billion
Agnico-Eagle Mines 10.3 billion
Yamana Gold Inc. 10.2 billion
Lihir Gold Ltd. 7.5 billion
Iamgold Corp. 7.2 billion
Eldorado Gold 5.7 billion
Red Back Mining Inc. 3.5 billion
Franco-Nevada Corp 3.3 billion
Centerra Gold 3 billion
Royal Gold 2.3 billion
Osisko Mining 2.2 billion
Centamin Egypt 2.2 billion
Gammon Gold 1.5 billion
New Gold 1.5 billion
European Goldfields Limited 1.3 billion

Aurizon Mines 0.8 billion
Detour Gold 0.8 billion
Ventana Gold 0.7 billion
Kirkland Lake Gold 0.6 billion
Great Basin Gold 0.5 billion
191.3 billion CDN Total = 181.1 billion US at 0.9465
It’s just a horrible use of statistics. It is highly misleading due to the nature of mining versus retail, as well as the fact that you can tally 100 billion US in other gold mining paper with ease but it technically isn’t common stock.
The Dangerous US Financial Sector Still Smoldering
Timmy and the Merry Pranksters at the Treasury and the Fed are throwing taxpayer money at the financial sector with the same prudence with which Angelo Mozilo used sunblock.
When the US financial system tumbles there should be little doubt where Ben, Tim, Larry, and their Boss failed the American taxpayer and all holders of US debt.
Pretty easy to look at that and imagine that many more who need help paying for food are falling through the cracks. So while 1 in 8 Americans being on food stamps sounds bad, what’s worse is that even more than that are experiencing food insecurity and are in need of assistance.
With All Respect to Peeps Max said he stopped following Walmart but said something to the effect that at some point in the past Walmarts Market Cap was bigger not right now in the middle of the Financial Crises
Bonn that isn’t what he said. It’s at about the 40 minute mark. I’ll quote the whole thing. (sigh)
“The entire market capitalization of aaall the gold mining stocks in the world put together is less than Walmart. ” Max said.
“Yeah I saw that that chart that’s pretty amazing.” Stacy said.
Max continues, “So Walmart is a model of selling bad Chinese stuff at slave made wage price, that’s going out of business as the credit contraction continues to takes it’s toll. And uh and yet it still has a market capitalization, an I believe it is roughly uhmm, I haven’t looked in the last few weeks but let’s call 300 billion dollars. That single company has a market cap of between two and three hundred billion dollars, and yet it’s greater than if you added every market cap of Newmont Mining” blah blah.
What Lord Monckton thinks about the climate is just as INVALID as what Phil Jones thinks about the climate. The climate is what it is regardless of what anyone thinks about it.
Using my guesstimation method plus my 6th sence
what you guys Calculated was 350 Billion Dollars 5 years back it woulda been 175 Billion $
Seeing that the price of gold has doubled since then
Anyways its a non issue so thats all i gotta say
Yes Adam C, instead of Al Gore telling us “The Scientific debate is over”. If the debate/inquiry has stopped it is no longer science. And I doubt the science experiments Stacy did in school involved clouds let alone a complete biosphere, no offense Stacy.
I keep seeing confusion between global warming, climate change, and the carbon market. They aren’t all the same thing. The carbon market is based on the assumption that climate change is a real threat that must be promptly addressed specifically through controlling carbon. It is a highly specific argument that is not actually being spoken of in this specific manner nor argued on the basis of science (which it purports to be guided by). Instead you’re either in support of the creation of a carbon market or you’re a denialist.
I remember a similar tact used after Sept 11th. You either believed an oxygen starved fire and highly asymmetrical structural damage can change the laws of physics so that floors start falling BEFORE floors above them hit them such that a building can collapse at near free-fall speed with relative symmetry. (Rather than the inertia of the structure below sending opposing energy into the mass above as it contacts floor by floor by floor thus significantly slowing the collapse well below free-fall speed). Or you’re a conspiracy theorist.
I have a conspiracy theory. The carbon market will be the largest racket in human history. It will empower criminals to have competition selectively crushed by enforcement, or pushed down to pennies on the dollar by the threat of such, loan cheaply to their friends’ to cover compliance costs where need be, cheat and lie left and right, shift even more wealth from “developed” nations to the under-developed nations which is code for nations that allow for freer exploitation, and deny the poor access to responsible energy like firewood in favor of irresponsible energy like nuclear.(read old fithy)
Bonn, I can’t even follow your logic. I used data from mid and late last week because I didn’t want to collect it all again. And if the truth is a non-issue for you, don’t correct people. It is a highly misleading stat. It cleverly avoids a hundred billion in other paper related to gold mining as well. It’s what I’d expect from a used car salesman.
@ Daniel S
Oks you win . But if u’ve been here long Enough you woulda heard me rant “Gold is a 6000 year old Scam”
So whenever its an issue on Gold and i do respond .If i do it normally means “Plz ignore my comments”
Cause I dont belive in Gold. Truly well thats my opnion.
I would rather be in Steel/Copper/Silica etc
In an age before Rogernomics, well before The Office, there was the afternoon tea fund, Golden Kiwi, and four o’clock closing: welcome to the early 80s world of the New Zealand Public Service. Gliding On (1981 – 1985) was the first locally-made sitcom to become a bona-fide classic. Inspired by Roger Hall’s hit play Glide Time, the award-winning series satirised a paper-pushing working life familiar to many Kiwis. This episode features Beryl’s non-smoking campaign, Jim’s efforts to kick the habit, office sexual innuendo and a much-debated fire drill. “Morning Jim!”

Sadly, in the totally beyond totally corrupt collapsed American Imperialist regime this show has never been run.
Canada has not seen it either.
Sadly, I don’t ever think the show will ever be seen in the US … not so much because the US is for all practical purposes the greatest enemy the NZ Laviathon has ever had … but because it is not about young females in heat like Hallo Holly…
And Even if Climate change is being caused by human activity
Going by my 6th sense 20 % of the worlds population has 80 % of the worlds wealth .
So using that Premise those 20 % contribute the most of the so called “Carbon Footprint”
Personally I have been travelling on an average 3 Km/per day for the last year and a half
@Chalcie:
The choice is never or but sometimes or maybe.
Yes, I agree wholehearted with your ‘personal responsibility’ take. Hopefully we get to decide just what that means by our own selves as well.
Thanks for introducing me to a new thought today! Epistemological Self-Consciousness! Is that like, I had an epiphany, or what? Like the V8 commercial?
Yes PM i am first
@Stacy .. glad you appreciated it !
This one is even better ( falsifying the minutes ):

Yet politicians of both parties can’t acknowledge this. Why? Because any dispassionate analysis would spell only one thing – we need massive spending cuts and tax rises to avoid heading the way of Iceland and Dubai.

I can’t bear to watch, see the face or hear the voice of George W. Bush.
The Bush Crime Family has done enormous damage to this country and the world.
This travesty of a President is not funny.
Maybe I’ll get my sense of humor back regarding these ciminals….but I doubt it. Their crimes are too many and too huge. Still to those to can laugh at the drug damaged, amoral buffoon known as George W. Bush, go ahead and get some enjoyment out of “it” the “creature” that inhabited the Whitehouse.
Although funny, Adam Curtis has quite a different take on this series, in the documentary “The Trap”.
Well worth watching, for this and more.
Not a humorous video (“Yes Minister” is a tough act to follow!) but I’d like to recommend to everyone the recently screened 3-part series “Addicted to Money” by David McWilliams.
http://www.davidmcwilliams.ie/addicted-to-money
The last 2 most recently screened parts of it are available to download from Australia’s ABC website:
http://www.abc.net.au/tv/documentaries/downloads/
Check it out if you have the bandwidth, I think it’s really good.
(Addendum: Internet Archive might help you secure part 1, maybe)
seems really interesting.
CBC – The Fifth Estate – The Unofficial Story
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkYlbpS-vVI
Bush did so many stupid things almost uncountable. things like this will stay with me for ever; http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/bush-god-told-me-to-invade-iraq-509925.html one of the many great moments. Best would be a politician/president that works for the people, doesnt kill other people, doesnt give money to goldman sachs and co, end the private control of the fed and so on, yet in a corpocracy/neo feudilistic state/system based on cronyism and corruption that is apparently too much to ask. Cant believe im gonna say this but Somewhere bush was better than obama although they both steal, rape, kill, pillage and plunder. Obama just lies, does exact the same as bush. The only time obama makes me chuckle is when he screws up to read the teleprompter. So seen by track record that the last 50 years none of the president’s worked for the people, i would prefer a joker that tells it as he experiences reality (if you had done some research in the history of iraq; everything bush said was just ridiculously idiotic), instead of a boring teleprompter reader that just lies. 2012 palin, now that’s someone who can beat bush for the funniest president ever, anyways glad i don’t live in the US.
Thanks Phil. That made me laugh. It is as if the word has been removed from the elitest vocabulary.
Just once I would like to see their pants spontaneously combust while they spin their lies.

@Phil
If I may expand on your idea with my take? It looks as if some news agencies may be seeing the light. It may well be that when the “Truth” comes out they may be looked at as the only beacon of “Reason” when it comes to the news. Is it a ruse? Is it designed to get us sucked in? Just so they can have the monopoly. Who knows. Agendas abound. The CBC is not to bad. It could be another shot of “divide and conquer.” Just enough info to get the split down the middle. Heck, if you can divide Star Trek fans you can divide anyone.

This is a pure historical documentary and is called The Wonderful World of Albert Kahn (Edwardians In Colour 5Ep. and Twenties In Colour 4Ep.) made the proper way as only BBC documentary makers can. A spectacular journey through Albert Kahn’s “The Archives of the Planet” project. His collection of colour photography and cinematography taken from 1909 to 1931 in every continent is truly fascinating to watch, together with a great narrative story making it a top documentary.

How to Detect Lies
Introduction to Detecting Lies:
The following techniques to telling if someone is lying are often used by police, and security experts. This knowledge is also useful for managers, employers, and for anyone to use in everyday situations where telling the truth from a lie can help prevent you from being a victim of fraud/scams and other deceptions.
Warning: Sometimes Ignorance is bliss; after gaining this knowledge, you may be hurt when it is obvious that someone is lying to you.

‘The pro-centralization team is a global network. They are a “we” and they have a plan. The pro-decentralization team is not networked globally, is not a “we,” and doesn’t even have a map of this world, let alone a plan. — I always tell people not to worry whether there is a conspiracy because if you are not in one, you need to start one. The key to who is in your circle is whom do you trust. There are four fundamental principles of a sound, healthy economy: #1. Sound currency #2. Transparency of shared, i.e., public, money and privacy of individual money #3. Equity financing instead of debt. Debt equals war and equity equals peace #4. Vote with your money.

Stave the beast: ‘We will simply walk away from the system.’
‘A revolution involves five crucial elements: (1) a new view of sovereignty; (2) a new view of authority; (3) a new view of law; (4) a new view of sanctions; (5) a new view of the future. Any revolution that does not involve all five is more of a coup than a revolution: a substitution of new rulers for old, not a change in the system. — The battles for the hearts and minds of men are being fought today in all five areas. Points three through five are still up for grabs. These are intensely ethical issues. They are intensely religious. They will not be decided by technology. There is no group and no worldview that has a clear advantage in these three areas. But the outcome of the battle over points one and two is going to be decided in terms of digits: the digits of the Internet and the digits known as money. In both areas, the existing Establishments of the world are under attack. I am convinced they are going to lose.’

The quote is about mid page. I read this quote many years ago and now, with China such a major player, I think of it often. I would like know what he was thinking. The interviewer didn’t follow it up that I can tell and I can find no other mention of this in his writings.

“What is less well known is that more than half — 416 of them – were teachers or education workers, Novelli reports.

Joining him and the other worshipers was Jane Goodall, the celebrity chimpanzee expert who has become a fixture at forums sponsored by Mikhail Gorbachev and the UN.”

“did you check out my link on the first page(above) – you have seemed to have alot of interest in the IMF SDR’s over the past few month or two and know alot about them. Its interesting. I know Joseph Stiglitz has been past of the ‘elite’ but he has always been hard on his criticism on the IMF and their policy on developing countries. Now I know having a global currency is one more step towards possible regional governments, but his arguments for a global reserve seem like a way of possible limitations on the military complex and their ever -longing thirst for war expansion and funding. I would just like you hear your opinion on the article or about having a new global reserve currency that doesn’t benefit one country in particular able to fund themselves to no limit. (US).”

You would have a much better idea of the science/history scams; there’s so much evidence in India that can’t be wiped out so easily. When Clinton began bombing Iraq, he targeted what seemed like empty desert; turns out the target was the ruins of an ancient city. You can guess why.
In Egypt, they sometimes let stuff slip through into the museums, like aeronautic components machined with sophisticated ultrasonic tools.
Yeah, the river alone could not create the Grand canyon. I was just there and there are no mountains on the sides and the land is exactly the same height on the other side. The landscape is entirely flat at rim level as if was pulled apart, no upheaval. The other thing is that it has dead end valleys, water erosion could not do that. I would not discount some water erosion but not the majority of the puzzle. When I was there the story was a much greater flowing river than today fed by Glaciers, that probably occurred but Glaciers and water will form and flow in an existing crack in the ground. Interesting theory.

The Monckton interview is worth watching
http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/17361
The leaked documents from the East Anglian CRU (Climatic Research Unit ) have proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, that the “global warming” scam was perpetrated with criminal intent to defraud the public of massive amounts of money, advance an ideological agenda, and make the criminals involved, quite wealthy. All at our expense.
There are only around two dozen individuals directly involved in the criminal fraud committed by the climatology “scientists.” These people, or as Lord Monckton calls them—idiots, crooks, and criminals—should be tried in an international court, for crimes against humanity.
I strongly urge you to watch the interview that Alex Jones had with Lord Monckton on November 27, in order to understand just how evil, and amoral, these individuals are.
the question is. Can the powers that be take us to world war 3/4 and or destroy the economys of the world or create a plague around the world if quite a few people know they’re purposely setting these things up and doing it.

Walmart DOES NOT have a higher market capitalization than all the gold stocks in the world.
Please check it out for yourselves as I have. It is simply NOT TRUE. I don’t know how Max doesn’t intuitively know that. Makes me wonder.
Walmart’s Market cap is about 211 billion US.
I stopped tallying Gold Miner Market caps after reaching 341 billion US. I didn’t count debentures, warrants, North American companies below 900 million in market cap, and only counted 6 companies not listed in North America. It was about 2:30 am, I had sleep to catch.

Now this lie is all over forums, blogs, and Max DOESN’T CHECK THE FACTS and passes on the junk data in the “Truth” about markets.
How can so many financial experts have such a lacking knowledge of the stock market capitalization of the gold sector?

Add that to the figure of one out of every eight Americans being on food stamps and one out of every four homeowners being underwater . . . not a pretty picture, and not something that is likely to improve any time soon.

It’s just a horrible use of statistics. It is highly misleading due to the nature of mining versus retail, as well as the fact that you can tally 100 billion US in other gold mining paper with ease but it technically isn’t common stock.

Pretty easy to look at that and imagine that many more who need help paying for food are falling through the cracks. So while 1 in 8 Americans being on food stamps sounds bad, what’s worse is that even more than that are experiencing food insecurity and are in need of assistance.

Max continues, “So Walmart is a model of selling bad Chinese stuff at slave made wage price, that’s going out of business as the credit contraction continues to takes it’s toll. And uh and yet it still has a market capitalization, an I believe it is roughly uhmm, I haven’t looked in the last few weeks but let’s call 300 billion dollars. That single company has a market cap of between two and three hundred billion dollars, and yet it’s greater than if you added every market cap of Newmont Mining” blah blah.

Anyways its a non issue so thats all i gotta say
@Gordo
“anyone that matters?”
what the hell does that mean?
Yes Adam C, instead of Al Gore telling us “The Scientific debate is over”. If the debate/inquiry has stopped it is no longer science. And I doubt the science experiments Stacy did in school involved clouds let alone a complete biosphere, no offense Stacy.
I keep seeing confusion between global warming, climate change, and the carbon market. They aren’t all the same thing. The carbon market is based on the assumption that climate change is a real threat that must be promptly addressed specifically through controlling carbon. It is a highly specific argument that is not actually being spoken of in this specific manner nor argued on the basis of science (which it purports to be guided by). Instead you’re either in support of the creation of a carbon market or you’re a denialist.
I remember a similar tact used after Sept 11th. You either believed an oxygen starved fire and highly asymmetrical structural damage can change the laws of physics so that floors start falling BEFORE floors above them hit them such that a building can collapse at near free-fall speed with relative symmetry. (Rather than the inertia of the structure below sending opposing energy into the mass above as it contacts floor by floor by floor thus significantly slowing the collapse well below free-fall speed). Or you’re a conspiracy theorist.
I have a conspiracy theory. The carbon market will be the largest racket in human history. It will empower criminals to have competition selectively crushed by enforcement, or pushed down to pennies on the dollar by the threat of such, loan cheaply to their friends’ to cover compliance costs where need be, cheat and lie left and right, shift even more wealth from “developed” nations to the under-developed nations which is code for nations that allow for freer exploitation, and deny the poor access to responsible energy like firewood in favor of irresponsible energy like nuclear.(read old fithy)
Bonn, I can’t even follow your logic. I used data from mid and late last week because I didn’t want to collect it all again. And if the truth is a non-issue for you, don’t correct people. It is a highly misleading stat. It cleverly avoids a hundred billion in other paper related to gold mining as well. It’s what I’d expect from a used car salesman.

In an age before Rogernomics, well before The Office, there was the afternoon tea fund, Golden Kiwi, and four o’clock closing: welcome to the early 80s world of the New Zealand Public Service. Gliding On (1981 – 1985) was the first locally-made sitcom to become a bona-fide classic. Inspired by Roger Hall’s hit play Glide Time, the award-winning series satirised a paper-pushing working life familiar to many Kiwis. This episode features Beryl’s non-smoking campaign, Jim’s efforts to kick the habit, office sexual innuendo and a much-debated fire drill. “Morning Jim!”
