Obama in 30 Seconds

I did the soundtrack on this video last week. The bouncing ball karaoke thing is so funny! I'm not sure the office of the US Presidency has the ability to actually do what these campaign promises say, but now that I think about it -- the President is supposed to be just acting out the orders we give him. Executing. Does it feel like that to you?

Collateral News

"If the American experiment in democracy was ending, how would we know?"

Here's a list of 10 things that fascist dictators around the world have done in the past to set up their control structure:

1. identify a horrible enemy (drugs, terrorism, Al Queda, Osama bin Laden)

2. start a neverending war (war on drugs, war on terrorism)

3. build a ton of prisons (guantanemo bay, Wackenhut Corp. etc)

4. create a legal system geared toward filling them with the enemies (define protesters as terrorists via their threat to the state, etc)

5. create a state-sponsored private military which is above the law; confiscate citizens' weapons (see FEMA & "gun control")

6. create a massive internal surveillance system, infiltrate citizen protest groups (project ECHELON etc)

7. arbitrarily "detain" a few dissenters using the prison/ legal system above

8. target specific key dissenters and get them harassed, fired, etc

9. use the media to spread the agenda/ worldview of the new rules. Snuff a few journalists who tell the truth. (Dan Rather)

10. suspend of the rule of law.

In the US right now, during any national disaster or state of emergency the President can invoke martial law and bring the military in to keep "order", also forcibly to mobilize citizens into work camps, etc.

It's in the Patriot Act, WHICH WAS ALREADY WRITTEN BEFORE 911. THIS HAS ALL BEEN PLANNED, IT'S ONLY MADE TO LOOK LIKE AN ACCIDENT AND SUBSEQUENT RESPONSE!

Watch Aaron Russo's movie "America: from freedom to fascism"

Read this article in the Guardian, giving a fuller discussion of these ten points.

"Hope, Change, and Pissing in the Wind"

"As the world’s population continues to grow, it cannot hope to cure unemployment—ever– because the dynamic of modern capitalist industry is toward ever larger portions of machine labor replacing human labor."

Drone patrols take off

This is from msnbc, which we will now remember, is a news source speaking for General Electric the weapons manufacturer.

Unmanned remote control "drone" aircraft are in use now for US border patrol and whatever else:

"The border agency's fully loaded, $10.5 million Predators carry long-range cameras, but even at night, operators using the drones' radar imaging and infrared capabilities can light a target with a laser visible only through the night vision goggles of helicopter crews who intercept some of the border crossers.

"That's like a little red finger from God coming down and saying, 'Hey, there's some guy under that tree right there.' Very effective," McNall said."

Cyborg I-Spy Fly on the Wall

The military has been wanting this for a long, long time. Anybody remember that G.I.Joe episode where Cobra commander used every sort of animal on earth as a spy? It happened on TV back in the 80's, with millions of kids watching. Let's see, what else did they have on GI Joe?

Satellites to blanket the earth with total monitoring capability
microchip implants to track individuals
cyborg robot soldiers
the collapse of the american dollar and a new currency to follow it
fake aliens on a fake UFO sending real messages to the public
the spy animals
a one-world government terrorist enemy

Biofuel needs some subsidies

Biofuel production is now too expensive because food prices shot up. Food prices are related to the price of fuel required to create the wheat they use to make ethanol.

US gutted for private profit

"Bush proposes financial regulation overhaul: the proposal would designate the Fed as the primary regulator of market stability, greatly expanding the central bank's ability to examine not just commercial banks but all segments of the financial services industry."


Hey, I'm no financial wizard but this makes me wonder. The Federal Reserve Bank is a private company. As they say, it's about as "federal" as Federal Express.

I get it that everybody wants to avoid Great Depression II (the sequel). But I don't understand how siphoning off US wealth into the hands of a private, for-profit corporation is going to do that.

Islam ain't 911

Pacman - [profile] Fri Mar 28th 14:06 / #32
So true. Captain should realize that secular atheists like myself who are critical of Islam because of its treatment of women, free speech issues, etc. are actually his best friend. It is just that the right wing opinion factories and their parrots want to seize upon intellectual dishonesty in order to score political points. The use of fear is well documented in politics, and it works on both sides of the aisle. However both sides use it to deceive. The problem is that people like Captain hate secularism because Bill O Reilly and Ann Coulter need to sell books about a "Culture War". The above youtube clip I believe sums it up perfectly. "You can believe in stones all you want, just don't throw them at me." (this coming from a woman with a death sentence on her head for speaking out against islam, and for who the possiblity of being stoned to death is a reality) I will take the word of these women who have lived under islamic tyranny over some talking head, and that goes for Wilders too.

Unfortunately we can't take the word of those that jumped from the WTC to their deaths or were incinerated in the fire. You stay with youtube and I'll stay with reality.

Reality?

Captain, the only thing Islam had to do with 911 was that the US govt. needed their employee Osama bin Laden to play scapegoat so the US could invade Iraq after trotting out the "al Queda" boogeyman. THE PATRIOT ACT AND PLANS FOR INVADING IRAQ WERE ALL DRAWN UP BEFORE 911, AN EVENT WHICH THEY REQUIRED.

There are so many things wrong with the official story of 911, I'm amazed that anybody is suckered in to "believing" that it was Islamic terrorists.

Several of the 19 "hijackers", NONE OF WHOM WERE ON THE PASSENGER MANIFESTS OF THE FLIGHTS IN QUESTION, have since turned up ALIVE in SAUDI ARABIA, not Iraq or Afghanistan.

And by the way, if we could take the word of the dead 911 victims, they would tell you about the other explosions in the building, ones which were unrelated to the airplanes.

I was there when it happened, and I saw live action news feeds with reporters describing giant explosions in the base of the towers. Somehow these never made it into the official version of the story, except ridiculously to be passed of as "gas leaks".

The steel beams were contaminated with the signature chemical trail of professional demolition explosives, which is why the bottom of the rubble pile maintained a temperature of thousands of degrees even months after the collapse. Not to mention that the steel girders WHICH WERE IMMEDIATELY SHIPPED TO CHINA AS SCRAP were all cut to a uniform length perfect for loading into dump trucks -- the explosives had been placed to ensure quick removal of the evidence after the collapse!

It was an intentional controlled demolition. The airplanes were a cover for the use of explosives, and the so-called hijackers were a cover for the use of remote controlled planes. (if you "believe in" autopilot you know that remote control technology exists).

Further, the planes and 911 as a whole was a cover-up for the takeover of the US Government through the use of the Patriot Act, "state of emergency" directives, Homeland Security and FEMA Acts.

This was the plan from the beginning. No elections mean anything when a new set of laws exists, laws which shunt off the normal governmental process and allow for dictatorial powers in the event of an "emergency."

Now that we know those emergencies are internally created, we see that the US Govt as we knew it, no longer exists. Look for more "terrorism" surrounding the '08 elections. Have a nice day.

Hi Everyone,

Do what thou wilt.

Here's a little teaser for you:

Tomorrow night I will be playing piano at a workshop presentation of Shakespeare's "12th Night", or "What You Will."

This is a comedy with scenes of Love, heartbreak, sabotage, and a bit of bloody swordfighting, all accompanied by manic soundscapes tortured out of a piano! Original compositions and improvisations will plague the audience from start to finish, interrupted only by a merciless barrage of corrupt acting. Let me tell you now that if you thought Shakespeare was fit only for harpsichord and lute, you were cretinously misinformed.

Divadlo Miloco is putting it on in conjunction with Mermaid Theater from Austin, Texas. These people are insane! European physical comedy meets improv meets a classic theater piece. Can a blanket become a wig? Can one practice a love poem on a puppy? How does a person drown onstage in the presence of God?

To find out, manifest yourself at Školska 28, the gallery space located off Vodickova. That's the gallery name and address, by the way. Metro: Mustek, tram: Vodickova on #3,9,14,24.

Warning: this is a workshop production. That means you will see the theater equivelant of a movie trailer. It's like a special peek into a live rehearsal, the way it REALLY happens backstage. And if a normal performance shows 10% of the artists' ability, you are in for a rocker!

Ztohoven acquitted of fake TV bomb blast

A group of pranksters climbed a TV broadcast tower last year, jacked into the transmitter and sent out a fake broadcast showing a nuclear explosion over the Krkonose mountains.

On Tuesday a local court ruled, finally after much priceless free publicity, that the act was "not of a criminal nature."

On the one hand, there's the old story of the boy who cried wolf, which means an art group shouldn't play with people's emotions by broadcasting fake news of very scary things.

On the other hand, there's mass media which routinely gets and keeps your attention by continually broadcasting "news" of current events, and presenting them with a falsely hyped up urgency, to stimulate your fear circuit.

Will you pay to live on Earth?

Do what thou wilt.

There's a statistic that's been running around for a while in my head, that one percent of the world's population owns ninety-nine percent of the world's wealth.


We're talking about six billion people on planet and an estimated thirty trillion dollars. For sixty million of the world's cream-on-top, that makes $495,000 each. For the rest, fifty bucks. Go get a pizza and spend your change on a latte.

Now besides the question of my math skills, how do you put a value on the earth's economy? For this example we just added up all the combined GNP's.

These guys have another idea: calculate in economic terms the value of the entire biosystem that supports our fat and lazy lives. The point of this is to give a scientific means to support legal claims that say, for example, a factory polluting a river is doing economic damage to us all. Because otherwise, the law sees no property being damaged by pollution, therefore no crime being committed, therefore no legal incentive for the polluter to stop.

Property is the essence of law (how's that for some uninformed opinion?). Riot police don't come out over politics, they come out to protect store front windows. Why is rape so under-reported? Look at the legal system's valuation of the female body for your answer. Meaning: female body is the property of the attached male authority. (see marriage)

So far, courts have refused to assign any value to undeveloped areas, or places showing no signs of human work input. This goes back to the Biblical mandate to go forth and multiply, etc. It's all there for YOU. Raw land is free, as free as the air.

Well we see how far free land went. After snatching up California the US declared the "exploration" phase of human activity to be over, and went into taking over markets. This is like when you're playing Monopoly and all the properties are bought up. The game jumps levels and turns into a trading and lending thing. I usually used to quit after the properties were purchased because that was about the point in the game when my cousins would start cheating. Funny how that works.

Now that the land is all grabbed we're closing in on the next tangible resource: water. Ever paid $4 for eight ounces of bottled water in a club? I remember when I first saw gallons of water for sale in the grocery store for 99 cents. I wondered what idiots would pay for water? How long until we're paying for air, and how will the sale be controlled?

For millions of years any mammal could slurp from the stream, jump in the lake, drink from a river. Just check upstream to make sure there's no dead moose laying in the water and you're good. Imagine going up to a pre-agriculture earth person and telling them this story:

"Once upon a time there was a place where the community was so messy that it was not safe to drink from the river. You had to exchange valuable treasure to get water to drink, and the people who collected your treasures kept them and never gave them back."

They would think you were out of your mind, but that's our reality now.

There was an article in the Economist a while ago, saying that no one will be interested in doing anything for clean air and water until they can be owned and protected as investments. Put this all together and see where it goes. Here's my sci-fi projection:

The Earth is going to continue being polluted by an expanding population. Humans will build protective shells around our living environments and hide in them. Something like bubble cities. Pollution and mutants will be the new terrorism. No one will go "outside." Everyone inside the "clean zone" will pay a service fee to cover the costs of the common water and air filtration systems. Quality of life will be in the fucking toilet. Walking on the grass will be a jailable offense.

It will be like being at the mall for life. Like if there were apartments upstairs from the mall, and your job was in some building attached to the other side, and all transportation was connected inside, etc. It's technologically quite feasible to seal windows up. HVAC etc.

Aaaand, there will be a management company in control of the air, water and light inputs to the city. They'll do it for profit in the name of the public good, like the Federal Reserve bank (which is no more federal than federal express. really. The bank printing US currency does it for profit! US govt' debt is MONEY IN THE BANK for the Fed, literally.)

Start telling yourself "I AM A FREE HUMAN BEING ON PLANET EARTH." Do it as many times as you can all day long and these problems may eventually be avoided. Unless you actually like the idea of living under a mall security guard.

Love is the law, love under will.

Billboard Liberation

The Billboard Liberation Front has announced a major new advertising improvement campaign executed on behalf of clients AT&T and the National Security Agency. Focusing on billboards in the San Francisco area, this improvement action is designed to promote and celebrate the innovative collaboration of these two global communications giants.

AT&T initially downplayed its heroic efforts in the War on Terror, preferring to serve in silence behind the scenes. “But then we realized we had a PR win on our hands,” noted AT&T V.P. of Homeland Security James Croppy. “Not only were we helping NSA cut through the cumbersome red tape of the FISA system, we were also helping our customers by handing over their e-mails and phone records to the government. Modern life is so hectic – who has time to cc the feds on every message? It’s a great example of how we anticipate our customers’ needs and act on them. And, it should be pointed out, we offered this service free of charge.”

Erratic Boulder prizes

About to enter into a new reality...

Do what thou wilt.

The world is always changing.

"the world" is its people, it is us. Every individual has a part to play in the Life experience. Other living things play along too.

Humans have the beautiful faculty of self-awareness. We can look at ourselves, see our own circumstances, change them, and change ourselves to fit them. Animals and plants do not do this. They make alterations in their own lives and their environments by instinct, but they're always completely immersed in the flow of life. They can't dissociate and observe from outside, like people can... sometimes to a fault.

This is how Change occurs: we invent something completely unique and original in our imaginations. Sometimes it comes as a flash from the unknown. Sometimes it is laboriously constructed and loved, like the blueprints for a house. Using our powers of thought and the energy of our emotions, we take action and make that imaginary vision come true. It's amazing.

If you were to make a time lapse movie of the process of human creating, and speed up what it looks like, you would literally see things pop into existance out of nowhere, all around yourself!

This creative process happens on a very deep level all the time, not just with "artists". Advertising goes right to that level and implants images for you to then make manifest. Advertising makes you remember something (thought) and desire it (emotion) so that you then go and purchase it (action), upon which act it becomes real to you in your life.

Sneakers, cars, air conditioning, electric dishwashing machines, breakfast cereal, vacations, skinny tummies, etc.

IF YOU ARE NOT USING YOUR OWN IMAGINATION, SOMEBODY ELSE IS!!!

It's true. That's why they put commercials for toothpaste on late-night TV... the images sit there in your brain overnight and sneak-attack you in the morning as you're waking up. There is a whole science to this in the marketing world, a methodical approach to making you do things you otherwise wouldn't do. This makes someone else a nice profit, by the way.

You can take another path, called DO IT YOURSELF. Inspiration is volatile, good ideas zap you but require immediate attention if they are to flourish. That's what this blog is for, to remind me and anyone who reads it of these two things:

1) we are being bombarded constantly with external manipulative images and,

2) it's much more fun to contribute something positive and original to the world around you.

Give it a shot! Anything you can do that comes from you is better than a store-bought packaged product. Take a look around you. The world of commerce makes the best packaging we've ever seen, but is there an equal substance and quality contained within the wrapper?

Love is the law, love under will.

"Dan Phiffer found this image on a message board (picture credit to Adam Nieman and the Science Photo Library), and by his calculations, he says it's accurate.

Left: All the water in the world (1.4087 billion cubic kilometres of it) including sea water, ice, lakes, rivers, ground water, clouds, etc. Right: All the air in the atmosphere (5140 trillion tonnes of it) gathered into a ball at sea-level density. Shown on the same scale as the Earth."

President Klaus makes sense but ugly

Do what thou wilt.



"Klaus objected that to really decrease carbon dioxide emissions, the countries would have to "either stop the economic growth and thus block further rise in the standard of living, or stop the population growth, or make miracles with the emissions intensity."

I was happy to see him presenting these three undeniable arguments. To restate:

1.Economic growth takes energy; power plants are major contributors to emissions. The transportation industry (on which economic growth equally depends) generates another massive chunk of the emissions total. Changing either one will wreck up the economy.

2.Population growth compounds the above situation with an insatiable thirst for energy and transportation.

3.Current technology can only improve so much on the basic chemical reaction of burning things to create this energy; emissions aren't going to get better until we're using completely different energy sources.

Of course with these arguments he tacitly admits that there IS an environmental problem. Where he gets unpopular is in saying that the problem isn't as immediate as the "climate alarmists" would have one believe.

Why would he say this? Answer: because to take action on any of these three areas is even more politically unpopular than to say that "the environment is fine leave me alone."

Think about it -- Who's in a position not to heat their house because they don't like the gas industry, or coal? We're not going back to firewood to heat cities.

Who has time to farm and grow their own organic produce instead of buying something that was delivered by truck? We're not going back to donkey carts to move our supplies around countries.

Who, (besides these guys: Viktor Schauberger, Joseph Newman, Stanley Meyer) is out there inventing free energy systems to supply us with the energy we need for a high standard of living without sacrifice?

And of course, who is jumping at the chance to give up the #1 all-time world favorite pastime of makin' bacon? Maybe the ČR has a negative birth rate but globally we're [ADMIN: PROFANITY DELETED] like bunnies in the carrot patch after Farmer McGregor gets strung up. Not to mention that mass murder is still illegal, immoral, unethical and messy in general. Tender situation!

SO, President Klaus is actually supporting what people want. Modern definition of progress demands that he do it that way. Modern thought sees no further than the next 25 years. No problem!

To put this baby to bed and move on:

Fact #4: we all live in the same place. ( Planet earth you've heard of it.) Sure, we've been to the moon and sent radio probes to other planets to see what there is to see. But for practical estimates, in our lifetimes nobody's going anywhere.

With the communication abilities we have now, we are finally poised to perceive ourselves as one giant global community with zero boundaries. It's totally possible, it just requires a little effort.

If you like this idea, start looking for answers to the above three problems. There are some answers out there. Implementing them will require a fundamental shift in thinking and behavior but don't let anyone tell you it can't happen.

See you on the autobahn, darlings!

Fox News Suite#1, opus 3

Do what thou wilt.

"BAGHDAD — A female homicide bomber on Monday killed the head of a local group of Sunni fighters northeast of Baghdad who had turned against Al Qaeda insurgents, the leader's brother and a provincial police official said."

Just in case anybody missed it, Fox news has taken to calling them HOMOCIDE BOMBERS when they strap on explosives and blow shit up, themselves included.

SUICIDE BOMBER apparently wasn't inducing enough panic in the viewing public.

Protect yourself from the news! Control your own fear.


Love is the law, love under will.

Just in case you weren't sure yet..

"LONDON — A camera that can see through people’s clothing at distances of up to 80 feet has been developed to help detect weapons, drugs and explosives.

Although it can see objects under clothes, its designers say the images do not show anatomical details. However, it is likely to increase fears that Britain has become a surveillance society."

Isn't that just charming? I love how they say, 'fears that britain has become a surveillance society.' Is there any fucking doubt about it at this point?

Note, props to the spin masters for changing POLICE STATE into SURVEILLANCE SOCIETY.

What other goodies do we have here? Oh yes, don't worry, this camera doesn't show anatomical details. Like that's what I'm concerned about. This sentence has a ring to it, it reminds me of the sound of a tight lid being slammed closed. Slammed closed, for example, on the box called "be afraid of your body image."

What a load of schlock.

"It was designed for use in spacecraft and astronomy but researchers soon realised that cameras capable of seeing through clouds of cosmic dust could also see through clothing."

Yes! Publicly funded tax dollars at work making the digital leashes we are all being fitted for even right this minute.

Guess What's in the Water — Drugs!

This is why I love Fox news. They create truly masterful headlines, like the one above. And by the way, if your pet goldfish shows up with tits, now you'll know the reason why. In a similar study, "experts" found tons of residual cocaine in the water supply of Rome. And in Dublin a marginal 100% of paper currency tested showed cocaine residue.

Back to our story. The pharmaceuticals we are quaffing down at record rates are cycling back into our bodies indirectly through our water supply. In a word, this means we're fucked. When was it that our medicine was our food, and our food was our medicine? Is the individually-packaged food industry taking us to a new interpretation of same?

Have you heard of endocrine disruptors? Look into it. Hermaphrodite fish and wildlife are turning up all over the place. It means your body is taking in some extra hormones or chemicals of some sort, and they mess up your natural chemistry so much that you start turning into a Monstanto science project.

my new Cieling Light

Not only is our circuit breaker box now labelled, but my room is glowing in the interesting globular force field emitted by this amazing new cieling lamp I just hooked up. Found it on the street and carried it around to a few pubs to decide about whether it's some sort of electric chair for goldfish, or a light fixture.

Took home, hung from a spring-thing, and stared at the dangling wires for three weeks every night before falling asleep.

Then we got the ladder out, checked everybody's computer, and started flipping breakers. Me and Alzbeta. She was brushing her teeth so telling me how to call "front room" in czech got funny.

Set up ladder, power off, zip zip zip up the ladder. What you don't want to do is touch live wires with both hands. You can get bit by an outlet if you're only touching it with one hand, and survive easily. But when you send current across your chest and out the other arm, you've got problems.

Anyway, Damien's mini screwdriver was broken. It was a trippy break because the handle spun and the blade didn't. I had it with the tip stuck way deep in this foursquare bracket they have on the plugs here, to clamp the pairs of wires. The brass contact for the clamp is not insulated against the worm screw, so I think you get a straight connection into the wire you're attaching, when you touch the screw with a metal screwdriver. Hence the breaker box adventure.

So I'm up there screwing a screw that's buried in a plastic housing and I can't tell if it's stripped. Then I see that the screwdriver was broken, weird weird, which explained why I was about to be there all day if I didn't catch it.

(Like in I Heart Buddha when the CDs are stacked in the player so you're reading the label on one and listening to the one underneath it that you didn't know what there, bla bla bla awesome book.)

Soooo dammit finish the sotry already I hooked it up, stuffed a bunch of art in the globe that I had lying around, like plastic flowers grave-robbed out of a cemetery and used in last year's Halloween costume, and turned it on.

I will fill it half full, below the bulb, and put some fish in it the party.
