Intellectual property and copyright issues As internet usage becomes more widespread, copyright and intellectual property issues continue
to arise. Recently, several of my photographs have been used on other websites. While my work is copyrighted, I have agreed to "share and
share alike usage" as long as attribution is provided and my work is not reproduced for profit. But in these instances, the only way I
knew my photographs were used in other websites was through Technorati links. People who use someone else's photographs or words are
required to include written attribution somewhere in their piece - readers should not have to click on photographs to determine their
original source.

Further, I have noticed some bloggers - who certainly know better - use photographs from unknown sources, without any attribution
whatsoever. This is unfair to the original photographer. If you see instances such as this, ask the blogger to give credit where
credit is due. We work hard to produce original content; reprinting it without attribution is not only rude, it's intellectual
property theft.

From: Jimmy Walter

Please read the attached and one other email I am sending you on the US Financial Crisis. I know it is a great deal of information, but it might save you and your friends or allow you to make money on the fall if you are so inclined as to
short the market.

Ground Zero of the Real Estate Bust

Bad Credit Threatening US

Dollars for Sale

Morgan Stanley cuts Outlook

Hurricanes undermine Market

Merrill faces Subprime Writeoff

Asian Banks Subprime Woes

Also, "Someone or some organization just took up US$4.5 billion option that the market will indeed crash in late September. This is in addition to the earlier US$1.78 option. This US$4.5 billion option
is on the SPY.X and the earlier US$1.78 billion option is on the SPY.Y. These sickos even referred them as 'Bin Ladin Trades'." from a usually reliable source


This is from a friend of mine in Malaysia. Please read and consider what he says. It makes great sense. Fed's New Inter-Bank Money Market policy is shocking!!!

ON THURSDAY, 17TH AUGUST 2007, THE FED ALSO ANNOUNCED THAT these new LOANS to banks CAN BE FOR A DURATION OF 30 DAYS
and RENEWABLE!!!


THE PRACTICE IS THAT BANKS MUST RE-PAY AT THE STIPULATED PERIOD - I.E. IF OVERNIGHT BORROWING, THIS MEANS THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY. HERE WE HAVE
 A 30 DAY LOAN PERIOD AND IF THEY CANNOT PAY, BANKS CAN EVEN ROLL OVER
 FOR ANOTHER 30 DAYS.


This is historic. It means that major banks of the USA are out of funds and are illiquid (insolvent) to the extent that even the normal over-night borrowings would not be able to meet withdrawals. Hence, the need to extend a credit term of 30 days AND RENEWABLE AS WELL. This is a SIGNAL TO THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION, THAT THE BANKS ARE IN DEEP DO-DO!

It will be most interesting to see WHICH BANK HAS GONE TO THE FED FOR THIS FACILITY AT THE NEW DISCOUNT RATE OF 5.75 AND FOR WHAT DURATION. These BANKs are IN DEEP DO-DO.

IF YOU HAVE BOUGHT SHARES IN THESE BANKS, DUMP THEIR SHARES.
But there was a PR spin as to why they went to the FED for the loans.
This was the statement issued by the BIG BOYS:

"Each have substantial liquidity and the capacity to borrow money elsewhere on more favourable terms S but wanted to demonstrate the potential value of the Fed's primary credit facility to encourage its use by other financial institutionsS the money are borrowed on a term basis."

This is bull.

As I have stated in my previous article, the discount rate is the interest rate which the Fed (Central Bank) charges banks for borrowing monies overnight to meet reserve shortfalls.

If the banks were so liquid there was no need for the historic discount rate at 5.75 to be offered for 30 days renewable as per the Fed's Press Release on the 17th August 2007.

When any bank goes to the Fed for this kind of funding there is always a stigma because it also reveals in a glaring way that the relevant bank is unable for one reason or another to borrow from another bank in the Inter-Bank Money Market - i.e. other banks don't trust this bank's credibility. Period!

Additionally, in the past only Treasury Securities are accepted for such overnight loans. Now the Fed says that even toxic waste which these banks can no longer con investors to buy can be pledged to the Fed for such loans.

WHO ARE THESE BANKS???

JP Morgan Chase

Bank of America

Wachovia Corp

Citibank

And this is no coincidence, as these 4 banks are the biggest gamblers and the top four banks in the Global Derivatives Market and Toxic Waste Fraud in the Credit Market

What these banks did to cover up the stigma is to borrow initially US$500 million each.

This was their effort to test the market reaction and to avoid a massive run on their banks. It is very likely that if a bank goes to the Fed to borrow massively, it would trigger a run on the bank, especially in the present climate of fear and panic that has gripped global financial markets.
US$500 million is nickel and dimes when exposures are in the trillions! Let me assure that they will come back to borrow more in staggered sums. They were caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. They had to borrow, but cannot borrow too much at this stage as otherwise it would trigger a run.

Had they went for the full liquidity bailout, they would have to pledge all the toxic waste in their portfolios, which would enable investors and global banks to know the extent of the shit they are in. As of today, there have been securities valued at just twenty (20) cents to the dollar.

Why have the other smaller banks not come forward?? They are already dead or dying and have no viable means whatsoever to even to continue the pretense that they are solvent.

ANTICIPATING THE DIE HARD GAMBLERS

They will spread rumours and false theories to mislead people to re-enter the market for slaughter again. Gamblers need sacrificial lambs to make money

Foresee their arguments - "Don't be silly, how can these renowned international banks be lying as to their intentions?"

They are the ones who created all these financial toxic waste and now being exposed for what they are - international fraudsters.

Read their statement again: "S borrowed money on a term basis." It was really careless of them to state this. This is the give away. Attorneys will tell you that when cross-examining witnesses, they are always on a look out for such slips, and it is quite often that such evidence can turn a case in their advantage.

If the banks are that liquid and their actions so noble - to demonstrate the altruistic intentions of the Fed, why borrow a mere US$500 million each for 30 days as oppose to overnight when the exposures are in trillions>

This is the trillion dollar question.

Even this miserable amount, these banks want to repay on a term basis, i.e. 30 days!
Please pause and think.

[ Way back in 2005, these four banks liabilities exceeded their assets. What more today!

Rally in Markets Based on M&A Activities

Are All Hype - No Basis
After all down turns, there will be short rallies. This is because die hard gamblers and fraudsters want you to get back into the market for another killing. The Plunge Protection Team in Malaysia is pumping Billions of ringgit into the KL Stock Market [as the central banks in Europe and NY].

The latest spin is that because of the discount window has been opened by the Fed (i.e. reduction of the discount rate) liquidity is back in the market to fund the long queue of mergers and acquisitions which was temporarily held back by the recent plunge. [please see article by Krugman sent previously]

This is all bull!!!!

David Callaway of Market Watch just confirmed: "The M & A market as we've known it over the past three years is dead as of this summer. With US$300 billion in outstanding deals still hanging in the balance, there is going to be almost no appetite among corporations to do a deal right now."

Implications? Shrinking M&A profits (or no profits) at the investment banks plus huge loses at their trading divisions and mortgage business divisions will have CEOs, CFOs etc resigning or being sacked. Barclay's's top dog in Europe just disappeared recently. These rascals that have brought millions of homemakers, school teachers, self-employed into debt and are now being foreclosed and evicted from their homes. [The Fed wants to bail the crooks out, not the people they suckered in.]

This will dampen the market further, which means more spin and lies coming from the vested interests - financial news letters. These analysts need to spin "good news" to lure investors or else they too will lose their cushy jobs. Trust these liars and you deserve to be whacked.

Now we are witnessing a climate of fear. Given a few more scandals, bankruptcies of major financial institutions and the failure of the Fed's Discount Window to calm the market, the fear factor will soon turn to full panic.

Blue chip Fitch Ratings (Remember, I am not saying this, they are) reported that "Banks world wide have US$981 billion at risk because of credit agreements on asset backed commercial paper programs."

And Peter Gross of PIMCO (and if you still don't know who is Peter Gross and PIMCO,
if you have no business to be gambling in this market - google it) warned:


"Parts of the commercial paper market which has been among the hardest hit during the current credit crunch, may never recover even when things improve."

Commercial papers are short term loans given to top corporations secured by assets of these corporations. When there are no takers of these commercial papers in this segment of the credit market, Corporate America is in deep shits.

Ann Coulter as Performance Art

In On Edge, C Carr’s collection of essays and reviews of performance art, she describes a 1988
piece by Joe Coleman. It was one of several acts during a performance evening at the Hotel Amazon
(a former New York City Public School). By the time Coleman made his appearance on stage, a woman’s
crotch had, predictably enough, already been pelted with paint-filled eggs and a man named Victor
Poison-Tete had managed to accidentally tear down a set of Christmas lights.

 Spotlight: Jeremy Leggett of Solarcentury By James Kanter

Friday, August 31, 2007
ord = Math.random() * 10000000000000000; document.write('
LONDON: Jeremy Leggett knows it's not easy being green. http://www.solarcentury.co.uk/
In the late 1980s Leggett turned his back on a glittering career in oil exploration to join Greenpeace as the group's scientific adviser on climate change - much to the derision of his colleagues in industry.
Seven years later, Leggett abandoned Greenpeace, disappointed by the group's inability to influence the debate over global warming. Now he heads solarcentury, a company he founded nine years ago to help other companies embrace solar energy.
"I consider that the environmental movement has failed," Leggett said during a recent interview on the roof of his company headquarters, on a busy street near the Waterloo train station in London.
"We may have done some damage limitation," Leggett said of his years at Greenpeace, "but I don't feel there was a single point of substantial victory on climate change."
Leggett, 53, started his professional life with the aim of earning enough money to have a plusher lifestyle than his parents. To the frustration of his father, an environmentally minded biology teacher, Leggett used his doctorate from Oxford to advise oil and natural gas companies on prospecting.
"I was a creature of the oil industry," said Leggett, who also became a lecturer at Imperial College, London, training the petroleum geologists and engineers of the future.
The turning point for Leggett was in 1988, when he read articles in scientific journals modeling the effects of carbon dioxide emissions on global warming.
During his career with Greenpeace, Leggett crisscrossed the world attending dozens of climate conferences to lobby against the influence of "the carbon club," Leggett's term for the oil companies and groups promoting coal that pressured governments to block a global treaty to cut emissions.
Leggett chalked up some notable victories, at one point joining forces with the leaders of small island states to focus attention on rising seas that threaten the existence of countries like Tuvalu. But his faith in the potential of nongovernmental organizations to influence events was eroded, he said, as he saw recommendations by scientists at the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change watered down by lobbyists.
Leggett's greatest disappointment was failing to persuade the $2 trillion insurance industry to start divesting its holdings in fossil fuel companies and to channel capital into solar energy. Leggett had thought he could persuade the insurers that the best way to curb losses from increasingly violent storms and floods was to hasten the end of the fossil fuel era.
Leggett founded solarcentury in 1998 to instigate fundamental changes in energy markets. These days Leggett has a staff of about 60. His company helps other companies integrate photovoltaic cells into roofs and walls. Sales in 2006 were £13.8 million, or $27.7 million.
Clients include Gazeley, a unit of Wal-Mart Stores that builds and leases vast warehouses. Nick Cook, development director at Gazeley, said huge companies like DHL were increasingly demanding installation of photovoltaic systems. Leggett's company also is working with British property developers like Berkeley Homes to build solar cells into the roofs of new houses.
Leggett acknowledged that he still had work to do on his own company's carbon footprint. Solarcentury's offices are poorly insulated. The photovoltaic panels on his office roof supply only a small fraction of the electricity used by the company. He envisions moving into a new headquarters wired for solar and renewable energy, "but we have to hit our growth plans first," he said.
Some of Leggett's peers fault him for exaggerating the potential of solar power, particularly in cloudy Britain. For Leggett "to suggest that solar panels erected in the U.K. can make a major difference and enable us to retire a large number of thermal power stations is misleading," said George Monbiot, a visiting professor of planning at Oxford Brookes University and the author of "Heat," a book on climate change.
"I honestly don't think I've hyped it," said Leggett, referring to solar. The real problem, he added, is that "too many people still don't believe that grown-ups get their energy this way."

AluPlusSolar 68W
AluPlusSolar was developed by Corus with solarcentury's expertise. This glass free photovoltaic (PV) system comprises flexible PV laminate (PVL) adhered to the surface of a specific Kalzip profiled standing seam roof. This is a common construction roofing material which enables seamless and discrete integration of PV, an application that is not possible with glass module systems that require rigid framework to hold them to the roof.
They can be installed using the same methods as standard Kalzip roofing and DC electricity roof connections can be carried out by any roofing contractor.
The high quality ‘Triple Junction’ PV laminate works well in low light conditions inherent to cloudy climates and low pitch roof angles. With no glass, the product is vandal resistant, and its non-stick surface makes the modules graffiti resistant and self-cleaning in UK rainfall.

Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin presents Kara Walker – Sammlung Deutsche Bank, the first large-scale exhibition of works in Germany by this Afro-American artist from May 17 to July 7, 2002. The presentation continues the series of exhibitions organized by the Deutsche Bank, featuring works from the Bank´s own collection.
In her works Kara Walker focuses on questions of identity, racism and social injustice. Her historical figures, at first sight apparently harmless, mostly black silhouettes, subtly yet brutally combine episodes from the history of the American South with images from Walker´s own imagination: "The silhouette was a near perfect solution to a complex project that I set for myself... to try and uncover the often subtle and uncomfortable ways racism, and racist and sexist stereotypes influence and script our everyday lives."
Walker´s use of silhouettes grew out of an artistic tradition found in the American South an popular in the 19th century. "Here there is still a longing for a romanticised and homogenous ´past´. This longing retains all of its former power in the form of such dubious cultural manifestations as romance novels, pornographic fantasies, cartoons, antique postcards and collectible figurines." Yet the artist´s works unmask a simplified view of history: on closer scrutiny her Victorian era genre studies reveal themselves to be drastic representations of a slave-owning society, that ignore the etiquette of political correctness and violate established taboos. For Walker´s art is deliberately provocative: "My works are explicitly erotic, shameless. I would like visitors to stand in front of my work and feel just a little bit ashamed."
In her projections, which are composed of silhouettes attached to the wall, drawings and coloured light, Walker even integrates the observer directly into her visual universe. The latter´s shadow draws him actively into the work, from which there is then no escape.
Born in California in 1969, Kara Walker studied at the Atlanta College of Art in Georgia and at the Rhode Island School of Arts in Providence. Her numerous solo and group exhibitions in the USA and Europe soon gained her an international reputation. In 1999 she was awarded the prestigious MacArthur Foundation scholarship and in the spring of 2002 represented the USA at the 25th São Paulo Biennale. Kara Walker lives and works in New York, where she holds a professorship at Columbia University.
Kara Walker – Sammlung Deutsche Bank presents works in paper and a projection from the Sammlung Deutsche Bank, as well as items from international private collections. In conjunction with the Berlin exhibition the Kunstverein Hannover is presenting a number of impressive scenarios by the artist featuring silhouettes and light installations from June 8 to August 4.
Inspired by silhouettes traditionally used as Christmas decorations in Germany, Kara Walker has created three paper-thin sculptures for her exhibition in the Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin. This Edition No. 19 of the Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin is modelled on filigree drawings executed by the artist on paper and cut out with scissors. The cut-outs were then been reproduced in stainless steel painted a matt black. Reproduced in a limited, signed edition of 100 copies, the cut-outs are available exclusively from the MuseumShop of the Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin for EURO 150 each.
The program of events accompanying the exhibition is inaugurated by a presentation entitled Schatten und Schnitte in der zeitgenössischen Kunst (Shadows and incisions in contemporary art), which will be delivered by Dr. Marion Ackermann on May 24 at 7 p.m. The art historian curated the exhibition SchattenRisse. Silhouetten und Cutouts (Out-lines. Silhouettes and Cut-outs) at the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich in 2001.
Kara Walker constantly refers to contemporary literature by Afro-American women writers as a source of inspiration for her art. And on Thursday June 6, 2002 at 7:30 p.m., Eva Mattes will be reading texts by one of these authors: Toni Morrison. Last year the renowned German actress accompanied the winner of the Nobel Prize for literature on her reading tour of Germany.
As part of the Berlin Summer Festival of Literatures 2002, the translation workshop Dichter trifft Dichter will be taking place from June 29 to July 1. In the Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin, authors Tanella Boni (Abidjan/Côte d´Ivoire) and Ulrike Draesner (Berlin) will be exchanging their experiences with contemporary lyric poetry and presenting the results of this exchange on
July 4, in the atrium of the Deutsche Bank. The event is taking place in co-operation with the Berlin Summer Festival of Literatures.
Daily guided tours at 6 p.m., the popular Lunch Lectures on Wednesdays at
1 p.m., and the Sunday theme tours starting at 11:30 a.m. round off the accompanying program of events.

Civil unions between male couples existed around 600 years ago in medieval Europe,
 a historian now says.
Historical evidence, including legal documents and gravesites, can be interpreted
as supporting the prevalence of homosexual relationships hundreds of years ago,
 said Allan Tulchin of Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania.
 
Gay marriage goes way back
Historian says men wed as early as 600 years ago in medieval Europe
"Western family structures have been much more varied than many people today seem
 to realize," Tulchin writes in the September issue of the Journal of Modern History.
 "And Western legal systems have in the past made provisions for a variety of household
 structures."

For example, he found legal contracts from late medieval France that referred to the
term "affrèrement," roughly translated as brotherment. Similar contracts existed elsewhere
 in Mediterranean Europe, Tulchin said.

In the contract, the "brothers" pledged to live together sharing "un pain, un vin, et une bourse,"
 (that's French for one bread, one wine and one purse). The "one purse" referred to the idea that
 all of the couple's goods became joint property. Like marriage contracts, the "brotherments" had
 to be sworn before a notary and witnesses, Tulchin explained.

The same type of legal contract of the time also could provide the foundation for a variety of
non-nuclear households, including arrangements in which two or more biological brothers inherited
 the family home from their parents and would continue to live together, Tulchin said.
But non-relatives also used the contracts. In cases that involved single, unrelated men, Tulchin
argues, these contracts provide "considerable evidence that the affrèrés were using affrèrements
 to formalize same-sex loving relationships."

The ins-and-outs of the medieval relationships are tricky at best to figure out.
"I suspect that some of these relationships were sexual, while others may not have been," Tulchin
said. "It is impossible to prove either way and probably also somewhat irrelevant to understanding
their way of thinking. They loved each other, and the community accepted that."

The U.S. Govt's Secret Colorado Oil Discovery
Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky Mountains lies the largest
untapped oil reserve in the world — more than 2 TRILLION barrels.On August 8,
2005 President Bush mandated its extraction. Three companies have been chosen
to lead the way. Test drilling has already begun...

Northwestern Colorado. August 2005.

The U.S. Energy Department announces the results
of a land survey...

It was conducted to determine the official amount
of oil a thousand feet deep in the Rocky Mountains...

They reported this stunning news:

We have more oil inside our borders, than all
the other proven reserves on earth.

Here are the official estimates:

• 8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia
• 18-times as much oil as Iraq 
• 21-times as much oil as Kuwait 
• 22-times as much oil as Iran 
• 500-times as much oil as Yemen 

...And it's all right here in the Western United States.

James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says,
"We've got more oil in this very compact area than
the entire Middle East."

More than 2 TRILLION barrels. Untapped.

"That's more than all the proven oil reserves of
crude oil in the world today," reports The Denver Post.

When asked about America's least-publicized oil supply,
 Utah Senator Orrin Hatch said:

"The amounts of oil are staggering. Who would have guessed
that in just Colorado and Utah, there is more recoverable
 oil than in the Middle East?"

Egypt discovers what may be oldest human footprint Mon Aug 20, 12:24 PM ET
 http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070820/sc_nm/egypt_antiquities_dc

Egyptian archaeologists have found what they said could be the oldest human footprint in history in the country's western desert, the Arab country's antiquities' chief said on Monday.
"This could go back about two million years," said Zahi Hawass, the secretary general of the
Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities.

"It could be the most important discovery in Egypt," he told Reuters.
Archaeologists found the footprint, imprinted on mud and then hardened into rock, while exploring a prehistoric site in Siwa, a desert oasis.

Scientists are using carbon tests on plants found in the rock to determine its exact age, Hawass said.Khaled Saad, the director of prehistory at the council, said that based on the age of the rock where the footprint was found, it could date back even further than the renowned 3-million year-old fossil Lucy, the partial skeleton of an ape-man, found in Ethiopia in 1974.
Most archaeological interest in Egypt is focused on the time of the pharaohs.
Previously, the earliest human archaeological evidence from Egypt dated back around 200,000 years, Saad said.

"When these things are created, they're going to be so weak, it'll be a huge achievement if you can keep them alive for an hour in the lab," he said. "But them getting out and taking over, never in our imagination could this happen."

Artificial life likely in 3 to 10 years
By SETH BORENSTEIN,
AP Science Writer Mon Aug 20, 1:49 AM ET

 

Around the world, a handful of scientists are trying to create life from scratch and they're getting closer.
Experts expect an announcement within three to 10 years from someone in the now little-known field of "wet artificial life."
"It's going to be a big deal and everybody's going to know about it," said Mark Bedau, chief operating officer of ProtoLife of Venice, Italy, one of those in the race. "We're talking about a technology that could change our world in pretty fundamental ways — in fact, in ways that are impossible to predict."
That first cell of synthetic life — made from the basic chemicals in DNA — may not seem like much to non-scientists.
 For one thing, you'll have to look in a microscope to see it.
"Creating protocells has the potential to shed new light on our place in the universe," Bedau said. "This will remove
 one of the few fundamental mysteries about creation in the universe and our role."
And several scientists believe man-made life forms will one day offer the potential for solving a variety of problems,
 from fighting diseases to locking up greenhouse gases to eating toxic waste.
Bedau figures there are three major hurdles to creating synthetic life:
• A container, or membrane, for the cell to keep bad molecules out, allow good ones, and the ability to multiply.
• A genetic system that controls the functions of the cell, enabling it to reproduce and mutate in response to
 environmental changes.
• A metabolism that extracts raw materials from the environment as food and then changes it into energy.
One of the leaders in the field, Jack Szostak at Harvard Medical School, predicts that within the next six months,
 scientists will report evidence that the first step — creating a cell membrane — is "not a big problem." Scientists
 are using fatty acids in that effort.
Szostak is also optimistic about the next step — getting nucleotides, the building blocks of DNA, to form a working
 genetic system.
His idea is that once the container is made, if scientists add nucleotides in the right proportions, then Darwinian evolution could simply take over."We aren't smart enough to design things, we just let
evolution do the hard work and then we figure out what happened," Szostak said.
In Gainesville, Fla., Steve Benner, a biological chemist at the Foundation for Applied Molecular
Evolution is attacking that problem by going outside of natural genetics. Normal DNA consists of
four bases — adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine (known as A,C,G,T) — molecules that spell
out the genetic code in pairs. Benner is trying to add eight new bases to the genetic alphabet.


Bedau said there are legitimate worries about creating life that could "run amok," but there are ways of addressing it, and it will be a very long time before that is a problem.

"When these things are created, they're going to be so weak, it'll be a huge achievement if
you can keep them alive for an hour in the lab," he said. "But them getting out and taking
over, never in our imagination could this happen."
