Social Control Experiment or Weather mis-report?

US Government: Hmmm... Lets do a little experiment. How obedient are the population under slight threat of a disobedience fine. Let's pretend it's a weather curfew and of COURSE we must firmly announce that 'IT's FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY". This line is frequently uttered by Governments trying to 'HELP' CONTROL the population. Let's pretend there is going to be a weather BOMB. Now, that's the FEAR factor installed. Next it makes CONTROL easier. Now, our little social engineering experiment needs an exaggerated alarmist weather report. Easily engineered as US GOV is the main source of forecasting. Weather forecast press people will interpret in a sensationalist/alarmist way. Excellent. This drill seems to have worked, the lightly snow-dusted street of New York are empty. SOCIAL CONTROL EXPERIMENT: PASS. TAGS: ISIS WEATHER BOMB, SKY TERROR PLOT, SNOWBOMB,

E-bola

It's not quite Zombie Apocalypse scale of a disease but it's un-curable enough to quarantine as it's a fast killer. AIDS did not illicit the same response when it was identified in the 1950's and now look what has happened. Really the WHO needs to look at how it manages these things and also the particular Governments' of the world need to have planned responses in place. It all seems a bit reactionary rather than a planned response. Factually because we are treating Earth like shit, then we aught to be more prepared for Gaia-type 'immune responses' from the BioSphere.

Drone regulation.

How long will it take for terrorists to copy the military Drone model of dealing death and disturbance?

When will football stadia have to put up electronic and physical barriers to drones flying into a stadium to deliver up nasty things?

A quad copter with several gas cannisters or nail bombs would wreak havoc!

I'm all for licencing them and having FoF transponders fitted to be allowed to fly.

NHS contracts

Its funny how companies that get NHS contracts then get rich very quickly. Its fine but I'm not so sure the taxpayer us getting good value. Possibly lazy tendering decisions that are then not re quoted each year.

I wish I had some NHS cash cow cash flowing my way! :)

Scotland

Must say, Salmond has not really managed the campaign he's supposed to have been working on since he came into power. What has he been up to? Anyway as neither YES nor the NO vote is entirely clear what these votes will be FOR and what the exact Social, Economic and Political consequences will be of either, I think it's classed as a mess up. Hopefully all the 'abstentions' turn out and vote NO.

NHS Ethics

It seems that the NHS can, at times, slip in terms of Ethics. As part of their staff education in morals (the societal expectancy of good conduct) and Ethics (one's one knowing and certainty of and ability to differentiate destructive and constructive actions of self and others) should be drummed in harder in training. The recent bad publicity as a result of the "the few" is but an indicator of the wider issue. Dealing with sick people is not the calmest of tasks in a society. It takes people of a certain mettle to be on the front line of care. These we applaud. A person going in to help, letting their Ethics slip in terms of following correct medical procedure and record keeping and diagnosis etc. should be given help straight away. Hopefully NHS Management realises this is a prime task and they must take care of their workforce.

A word on cyprus.

cyprus. What a daft thing to do in cyprus. Aside from all the laundered money moving through there from UK and US targeted fraud, such as that ongoing by Banners Broker etc. and a large number of other ciminal fraternity... The EU have created a run on the banks in cyprus! What daftness. If you want to collect more tax then you add it to the pay slips and companies of those individuals by local legislation. Errr... okay that's the usual way of doing things but a lot of money arriving in cypriot bank accounts has not really been through a tax system. Ooops. An example of an unusual solution imposed without actuall fixing the underlying issue. Greece? Too early into the EU without eliminating the bulk of the black economy and state corruption and inability to collect tax. Thus EU grants and loans were not invested into capital projects but siphoned off in 'expenses' as per the well known African model.

PS covert government spying.

It seems my blog was woken up by that post I did about the spying the UK government does on the general population, and of which they admin to only taking a sanctioned interest in perhaps a few hundred thousand (compared to the million or so US citizens who are being tracked and traced by their every move). In reference to the Blackberry outage that occured just after the London Riots. Blackberry were forced to hand over thier encryption keys to the US and UK and Canadian goverment spying agencies GCHQ and suchlike and to do this and to cope with the increased 'sniffing' traffic of the newly plugged in spying hardware, they had to have a large service interruption which is still largely unexplained. So encrypted BBM messages and BB mail is now can-opened behind GCHQ firewalls along with myriad facebook and twitter GPS updates.... :-) Sorry I am telling you what you already know, yet refuse to believe.

Time, the old enemy.

It seems that time is a necessary illusion to entrapment.

Example, a person is trapped in the mortgage payments of his house.

It takes a long time to buy his house off the bank.

He feels trapped as a result.

Thus to increase his freedom he would have to earn more money, polish his shoes, learn up on all the latest stuff about his job, do a good job, please the boss then ask for a raise or get promoted.

Now he feels freer as he can pay off his house faster as he has removed some duration of being under the kosh of his bank.

well:
 
Does that not look immensely tasty.

Right enough, not a winter warmer but worth a sip!

So I need to Blog about news, hmm well there is not a lot of news about at the moment, what with the Newspapers being careful and so on of not upsetting politicians.

For YEARS it's been known that the press do underhanded things such as birbing police (those few that are bribe-able) and tapping and hacking email and voicemail accounts of all and sundry!

Well at some point the Press have pissed off the politicos and they pissed off someone in politics or law over whom they had no leverage by way of blackmail or it was someone the left off thier 'favours' list etc.

Anyway, you might think this is a good thing that all this came out.

Well, it it, the press and journo's should NOT get information by underhanded means! 

Unfortunately now, the press are "towing the line" with governments as to not pi$$ them off for fear of thier job/jail.

The NOTW etc. have sort of got justice but the flipside to all this is that perhaps the press are now being rather 'walking on glass' around political issues whereas 'fair game' idea now has with it reservations...

THE TRUTH IS THAT GOVERNMENTS HACK THE PHONES EMAILS AND INTERNET OF THE GENERAL POPULACE PRETTY MUCH ALL THE TIME.

Now they want to bring out LEGISLATION (SEE SNOOPER BILL) to make LEGAL what they are ALREADY DOING.

And HOW do we know they are already doing it.

Well, "flip of a switch" access to bank accounts, bills, credit card statements, phone bills, emails (where agreements exist with the big companies and ISP's who are given a licence to operate secure email as long as GCHQ gets an decrypted copy of each email - msn, yahoo BBM etc.) etc. are all right now peruse-able by clandestine government.


The Snooper Bills are designed to Legalize what they are already doing so that they can admit it when needed and make data obtained in this fashion, "legal".

WE KNOW THEY ARE DOING THIS BECAUSE OF HOW HARD THEY CAME DOWN ON NEWS OF THE WORD etc.

This, you would think would be a hand-slap offence on the lackeys and journo's who actually DID it.

Since when is 'knowing something is going on' a crime of greater import than the prepetration thereof.

That, my blog friend, is the oddity.

And the oddity exists as per the reason above.

The loud accuser, accuseth those of crimes he himself is perpetrating which lie undiscovered....

Poll. Who is fittest.

Clearly my blog readers think that Cheryl Cole is fitter than Eva Longira.

My next poll will take this Singer and this Actress and pitch them head-to-head in a new poll designed to really get people thinking.

Don't woorry, to avert accusations of sexism I will be putting up a new Poll for the ladies with Trio of Hot Men folk.

Meteorite kerfuffle.

This meteorite thingy that lots of people saw the other night over Scotland and parts of England sounds like a fun thing to see.  I have seen a couple of meteorites burn out just above the earth's surface.  I was aboout 280 metres from where one came out the sky vertically and I was in a tower block and watched one burn out seeimingly on a horizontal track, about 600 metres from the balcony I was standing on.

Some okay videos online about this one, but no professional imagery of it.

Egypt

Seems like the dictatorships that are about are getting it in the neck as they are clearly being seen as manipulative and corrupt, as the method of government implies.

There are varying degrees of Mugabe-ism...

Good on the Egyptians standing up and making thier voices known.

Whats uncouth is thier endangerment of thier tourism legacy in pilfering of national treasures.

Clearly not the brightest of folks if they are endangering one of thier mose lucrative income lines for Foreign Exchange - Tourism.

Don't be to daft!

Linky Heaven!

Seems like there are tons of things to link to on the internet and to get SEO done you really need to be on your sites day and night!

What a treck to fill in all these application forms.

I've been on amazon again and was shopping around but didnt buy anything.

Looking at the Kindle but then I have such a massive reading archive from the gutenberg project to plough through a load of books I have on my phone it will take me years to run out of reading content so I don't need a Kindle yet but they look like fun!

Planet Earth

Indeed a Planet is a 'wanderer' from the origin of that word.

Let us not let the panet wander into a state if disintegration, poverty of life and gerneral disrepair.

It's worth looking after and so are the people on it and we should see how long we can get our civilisation to last by supplanting greed for inciteful and future thinking planning.

If we rape the planet of it's resources and do not use these wisely to sustain future lives then indeed us beings as we are now will have a very uncomfortable end point of existence.

Let's not commit an end game so soon.

Bombs on planes....

These Terrorists are numbskulls.

If they wanted to cause some disruption, other than the loss of some UPS parcels...

Anyway, they are numbskulls as they are going about things the wrong way.

They are jealous of the trappings of capitalism, have clearly not one ounce of relgionism in them any more.

If they are doing these things for religious reasons (unlikely - more likely they are just plain lunatics
with a distinct inability to lead a sansibel life) then they are specious at best and if they like giving a bad
rap to thier religion then they are bombing themselves in the foot.

Nutters.

Hope none of the bombs goes off.

Also MI6 etc. surely knew about all this as tip offs came in from somewhere....

They should take these guys out when they know who they are not just sit and watch and wait until something actually happens.

The Cooling Effect

Winter seems to have a cooling effect on a great many things.

There are shorter days so less daylight to get things done in.

Housebuilding slows down, roadworks slow down, the rain comes down and slows things down even more.

Rain slows the traffic down (hopefully) so everyone gets home safe after work and arrives at work safely in the dark mornings.

Winter needs your co-operation too.

Sweep up your leaves, prepare your garden for winter. Find your gloves, make sure you have your ice scraper in the car as no longer do we have old casette or CD boxes in our car. Scraping the ice off with your MP3 player or USB stick would be silly.

Wrap up warm, take your winter soup and vitamins.

Get your hat on, the heat lost from your head is significant, thermal underwear helps sloy heat loss when it's windy, get a windproof jacket on top, sometimes easier than just piling on layers.

Have a warm pie in the evenings.

Less Aircraft on an Aircraft Carrier? WTF

Why spend £BN's on making an Aircraft carrier and putting less aircraft on it.

The whole point of it is to deliver the PAYLOAD (Heavy Aircraft) into theatre.

It's like having a smaller magazine in a machine gun. Daft!

And yet more money is spent in Atomic Weapons, which will never be used.

Next time you sit in front of the TV.....

"TV and compulsive TV watching, which sprouted in the 50's and became widespread by the 60's, has reduced many, adults and children alike, to spectator-observer roles. A further result is individuation. While the advent of movies may have had some influence on this scene, with movies you at least have to get out of the house and go down to the movie and you usually go with somebody. When you come out of the movie you generally talk to somebody about it. Not so with TV. With TV you get the lone and silent TV-watcher who cannot be interrupted and whose ‘communication,' if he is interrupted is often an absent-minded or resentful grunt. He goes nowhere, does not mingle, does not participate because the pictures and the action are all brought to him, to look at. With a movie you've got a beginning, you've got an end. TV often goes on ceaselessly, throughout the day and night..." - L. Ron Hubbard
