Pitbull with Lipstick Part Deux

Sarah. A most favorite target to continually amuse myself with – especially in honor of a snowy Friday afternoon. My dearest Sarah.

In a recent story, a reporter acquired thousands of internal emails from the State of Alaska showing email accounts shared by Sarah and her “first dude” Todd. Unfortunately, the reporter found the kind of behavior present within these messages that the very prim and proper, Mrs. Palin, has frowned upon when discussing the actions of other politicians. I’m not sure about you, but the superficial, piety-ridden, commoner-themed persona has to go! As they say were I’m from, “this one here is a bona fide’d Dee-vah Bee-atch, but she sho is prit-tah”.

One message held my attention: The governor coached her staff on how to disguise the amount of electrical work needed at the mansion to hook up her new tanning bed. Another illustrated Todd dishing up gossip to his, then Governor Wife, about an old family friend he grew up with which (could be traced) to this friend being unceremoniously kicked-off of the committee board seat that she previously held. And the funniest… Todd ignored the position of “First Gentlemen” and didn’t attend the overwhelming majority of civil functions usually accorded this position (regardless of “First Lady” or “First Gentleman” title). Instead, the only external function he decided to keep was a seat as a judge for Miss Alaska. Hilarious! Go Todd! Go Todd! Go! I raise my beer can hardhat to thee!

This brings me to a very decisive conclusion. When you wipe away the pretty red lipstick and the illustrative talk about patriotism and the like… what you are left with is the same ol’ politician crap as all the others… its just this one would do well in a blue-collar environment surrounded by pregnant unwed Teenagers, a behind-the-scenes “Spiritual Advisor”, and a male bimbo named, Todd, who when asked why he hunts bear cubs, responds curtly with, “…they were born, thats why!”

Oh, sidenote for my beloved Sarah… when someone says the phrase, “f’ing retarded” to something not related to anything even in the same universe as your offspring, it isn’t that smart to take public issue with that person. By the very existence of your issue are you declaring that your child is a “f’ing retard”? How cruel. Have you even looked that word up in the dictionary? No where did I see an utterance related to “f’ing down syndrome”… you just need to go back to more complex things like planning on how to sneak in a tanning bed into the State Capitol building.

Congress is voting on spending another $1.9 Trillion – or $6000 more per person in the USA.

GREAT IDEA. I can see now why the country is doing so well – we have chimps running it.

I Dare Say Herr Professor… 40 Lashes Due Onto Thee

Admittedly, I was taken aback upon reading the following:

A prominent US climate scientist at the centre of the ”climategate” leaked email controversy has been virtually cleared of professional misconduct by an internal university enquiry.

Michael Mann, of Penn State University, featured regularly in the more than 1000 emails that were hacked from the University of East Anglia in the UK last November. His emails and comments have since then featured in countless blogs and news articles. Some have claimed the emails reveal that mainstream climate scientists have massaged data in order to demonstrate that climate change is caused by human activities.

ref. New Scientist Magazine

What, Prey Tell, other than politics could drive the organizational body in charge of the misconduct inquiry to conclude there wasn’t any wrong-doing related to the “data stunt-work” being attempted by Dr. Mann?  Are we seriously concluding with, “Nothing to see here… walk along… nothing to see”?  Please!  Dr. Mann, in my opinion, should be credited to a broad degree with the melt-down (pun intended) of Hope-nhagen.  His amateur attempt at UNNEEDED number-fudging is a crime against the entire world – inclusive of future generations of hairless, bipedal apes!

We are literally toast given the obvious gross infiltration of politics into the science of climate change.  Toast, I say!

You, Human Reader.  Yes, you!  How does it feel to be at the precipice of self-annihilation whilst happily engorging yourself on your planet’s dwindling resources by utilizing greenhouse gas spewing technologies that unleashes an unnatural increase in the carbon cycle upon thee?  Especially whilst your “experts” arrange themselves in a perfect circle-jerk and play “dumb”.

Nope, nothing to see here… move along.

So I took a rare Monday off and spent it at the movies on a date with my wife.  We selected the movie “Avatar” primarily because for over the last month I’d read volumes about its making as well as the varied offered critiques and interpretations. One of the most prevalent interpretations was that we, Americans, are feeling guilty over the “War on Terror”.  Another was this movie is a “chest-thumper” for socialism… being  its raison d’être.

Disagree I do, forcefully.  This is a story that has been told for 400 years.  This is a story of Pocohontas. This is a story of Lewis and Clark.  This is a story of the Sand Creek Massacre. This is a story of General Custer at the Battle of Little Big Horn.  The Na’vi are the indigenous people of North America.  The humans are the westward bound expansionists.

Interesting story to the uninitiated but very old in premise.

However, the technology involved (we watched the RealD 3D version) kept me in my seat riveted to the screen.  The presentation was immersive in shape and form.  I felt drawn into the environment… wanting to explore Pandora.  All-in-all, it was a good movie that has set an awe-inspiring precedence in synthetic actor-based movies.

The World As It Is NOW

Posted by by Thraxxus on Sun, Jan 31, 2010

This article on Newsweek is a must read. The article talks about something I have said dozens of times over the last few years: The World is no longer in a Cold War. During the Cold War the United States and the Soviet Union found it safer to engage one another indirectly through the use of pawns. They would create little monsters and have those monsters do battle with each other. This served to build the economy of the United States at a rapid case (Trickle Down Economics anyone?) by giving the USA Military Industrial Complex and excuse to spend crazy money on defense. With the fall of the USSR their monsters ran free and started thinking for themselves. Welcome to the modern world. What Now?

This leads us to why the USA has declared war on nebulous things since the fall of the USSR such as Drugs and Terror – things with no actual country of origin and thus endless spending opportunity. I could delve into the countless conspiracy theories existing today on the US government manufacturing threats etc, but that goes away from the point of this article. The Point here is that the world is not where the US left it during the Cold War. Threats don’t work any more. Sanctions are BS because  nobody upholds them. Basically nobody gives two shits about what the Imperialist US Government really thinks any more – and for us, Americans, to think otherwise is totally blind folly on our part. There is no war, on terror or anything else. There is just people around the world that want America out of their business, and our government hanging on to policy they created to spend money on defense to prop up a failing economy.

We were on top of the world once and it wasn’t because our military – it was because of the melting pot we had combined with amazing resources, most of which we have squandered, and a will to produce lighter, faster and cheaper. Now we are just then world’s largest consumer market packed with the fattest culture on the planet, and some argue in history, and we are grasping at straws to keep it.

What a sad thing we have become.

Newsweek – MSM Worth Reading

Posted by by Thraxxus on Fri, Jan 29, 2010

I am not a fan of Main Stream Media (MSM for you not in the know). I see most of it as total bunk paid for by certain groups and steered by revenue needs not news. I don’t really see Newsweek as a news source, which is amusing given that it is actually called Newsweek. I do however see Newsweek as a great place to read direct, and often times really mean opinions. I like it when people in MSM aren’t afraid to talk about rough issues.

This morning’s headline on Newsweek is: Wall Street’s Fishbowl – How Banks Brought on the Scrutiny. I highly recommend reading the article as it says some pretty funny stuff. Example?

“But if the banks want us out of their business, they should get out of our business first. We’ve (barely) lived through a 40-year period in which investment banks, which had their origins in partnerships, have imposed themselves on us. They effectively moved into our house, raided our fridge, and set the joint on fire. Now they’re complaining that our renovation efforts are cramping their style.”

Amen brother. In an time where the American people bailed out big banks when they were supposedly going to crash, only to witness record profits for them as a result as well as record bonuses for big whig Executives one really must wonder: WTF?

Haiti WTFedness!

Apparently the Red Cross has asked people to stop sending their own breast milk to Haiti.

The quote? “Tell them not to send it,” said Eric Porterfield, a spokesman for the American Red Cross. “I’m 100 percent sure we didn’t ask for that.”

I can’t begin to really say why giving someone else your breast milk is a bad idea as it is actually so obvious to me that I can’t put it into words other than the follow:

Yes, humans are that dumb.

New feature? False Flag Bingo?!?

Posted by by scanjack on Wed, Jan 27, 2010

There is a new book out on the attack of the USS Liberty false flag event, Ship without a Country. Paraphrasing from “The Art of War” , that all war is based on deception, and with comic book hero Obama set to announce a three year freeze in discretionary spending, except for the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense and of course whatever term they use this week for the funding of any, and all of Israel’s debt (quite a few links out there on The Cranston Amendment which 9 out of 10 people do not even know exists, or in fact what it really means) payoffs payments, as well as Veteran Affairs (can’t fault that one, they need more, not less to be sure). What we end up with is spending here at home really being the target.

I bring this up quite simply because this country is so far in debt that there is NO way out. We have seen time and time again over the course of history how a war has pulled the U.S. out of its economic disaster. We have had the “Crotch Bomber” fiasco, and if you believe the MSM on this, and Yemen being the “new front line incubator” for “The Toilet”, a.k.a. al qaeda in Arabic slang,  enjoy the bliss of ignorance. Israel is encroaching upon Lebanon more and more, and now saying that February is the deadline for Iran, if you will. BTW, when you fly a war plane over another country without permission, you have committed an act of war.

So a Canadian company came up missing two (2) tons of explosives recently. Then they said they found it, no worries all is well. It seems the investigation is showing that their accounting of explosives materials really doesn’t add up. I’m sure it’s nothing.

Back to the title of this post, and the desperation to somehow, someway whip the American people up into a patriotic frenzy like we saw in late 2001, that will provide support for whatever war, where ever it may. What false flag event will be staged? Will it be at the Olympics (yes, Canadian hosted, and gee golly gosh darn isn’t that where the company is that somehow lost track of 2 tons of explosives …) or possibly the Super Bowl? Somewhere else perhaps?

At this point I think a false flag event would have to be very big, and very devastating for it to even have a chance at successfully selling the American people on sending more of our families off to die. I’d say it’s a possibility, more than 60%, but take PDD-51 and Obama’s own recent signing statements, and they can pretty much enact Martial Law any time they want to. I still  bet against a big enough event to do the job.

Wired Magazine: Four-Winged Dinosaur

As this particular subject relates to a recent thread (or moreso to a reply of mine within said thread, ref. AMNH), I thought I’d share the latest on the research. This article is in this month’s Wired.

I’ve watched this research come into focus over the past two years. The flight tests alone are awe-inspiring as one stands in witness of something that hasn’t taken place in millions of years. At the very least, it is an excellent way to comprehend just how small we all are in comparison to the “bigger picture”.

Enjoy.

NFC Nightmare

Posted by by Thraxxus on Mon, Jan 25, 2010

Am I the only one who was totally grossed out by the NFC championship game?

1) Brett Favre got hit more times than Ali in the Thrilla From Manilla.

2) Minnesota Vikings almost won the game in spite of having something like 8 turnovers.

3) New Orleans Saints, possessing one of the best offenses in the history of the NFL, decided it best not to actually use it. Seriously, compare the output of the two teams.

If not for Minnesota being hell bent on giving the ball to the Saints every two minutes they would have crushed the Saints.

I felt terrible for Favre for two reasons:

1) Most likey the final pass of his career is the interception he threw that most likely cost them the game.

2) His receivers seemed to be trying to catch the ball AND fumble it.

Prior to the NFC game I didn’t think that Indie would stand a chance against either the Saints or the Vikings. Now I am fairly sure if the Saints don’t dislodge their heads from their keisters they will get owned in the Superbowl.

Thanks for the years of fun Favre – you will be missed, by some.

… after all this time, cocaine does make you smarter! Who knew?!

Cocaine-induced alterations in gene expression cause changes in neuronal morphology and behavior that may underlie cocaine addiction. In mice, we identified an essential role for histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9) dimethylation and the lysine dimethyltransferase G9a in cocaine-induced structural and behavioral plasticity. Repeated cocaine administration reduced global levels of H3K9 dimethylation in the nucleus accumbens. This reduction in histone methylation was mediated through the repression of G9a in this brain region, which was regulated by the cocaine-induced transcription factor FosB. Using conditional mutagenesis and viral-mediated gene transfer, we found that G9a down-regulation increased the dendritic spine plasticity of nucleus accumbens neurons and enhanced the preference for cocaine, thereby establishing a crucial role for histone methylation in the long-term actions of cocaine.

…even if it is a simple neuronal “infinite loop”. Funny how our brain implements strategies that it, itself, finds pleasing even without conscious observation or what we express as a typical measure of comprehension on our part. It is the Matrix, indeed.
