Make no damn sense these boys will tell on they on damn mom
"MoorFedayeen" let me kick it like dis cuz iam n da video n i kno da situation so lets wrap dis up quickly …u fina shoot me yo address or u want mine?
Bunch of broke azz n1ggas hating is what I see. Travis Porter will never be as hot as they were the summer before. These dudes are the type with no money or anything to lose which makes them so dangerous. Can't trust them. I aint with co-oping with police but it sounds like these clowns did some dumb stuff and got piched. I also hate how ATL or country accents sound; just embarrassing. And these dudes had like $500 in singles with them stacked up like it was 100 racks. Weak
I came across this page. This should put in to perspective just how many of these clowns will be alive in the near future. We were better off in the 60s just getting lynched at a much lower rate. Check it out
Yo dog, what is your angle? You on a site on some pro-black, Gods & Earths, righteous shit one min, then the next you talking bout pimping hoes and we'd be better off gettin lynched sh!t the next. The rest of these aggins drop they little 2 cents on this issue and that and which chicks got the phatty and whatnot, but you always trying to "enlighten" the rest of us and drop some esoteric knowledge that's reeks of "c-o-n-spiracy", half-baked, misplaced anger, stream of consciousness horsesh!t. Who are you G? Are you a freedom fighter trying to get ninjas out the matrix who just happen to like lookin at strippers Instagram pics or are you one of these no-rent, budhead, losers preaching like you the only one that heard Makaveli and read Behold the Pale horse?
I too would like to know what the hell goes on in moor head that NiGga aint right bruh
@Solo… +1000…. Nigga stupid…
Smh, You're deflecting now. What does Arab got to do w the price of tea in China? You on here all day long talking out both sides of your mouth talking bout puttin hoes in they place in "Smash or Dash" threads and then turn round and try and drop some knowledge like you're the only one that reads. Hoe sit down. Stop being a hypocrite and trying to "teach" ninjas and just enjoy the @sses like every other aggin on here. We don't need YOU to tell the board "how to be a black man".
Yea that was me foo I love my nation homie GDN till the world blow Growth&Development thats what i live by Folk but i dont be on here all day preaching about both sides like u do.
LMAO @Solo. Ali get ya boy man, he still banging in 2012. And I'm elated that you used that "Smash or Dash" post as a reference because I explicitly told the boys in there to chill on that "smash & dash" talk because I don't hit & quit broads. I aint a saint but I also aint a damn fool. I care not what a cat does out here long as he aint hurting, robbing or killing anybody which is what it sound like these clowns and this vid did and got caught or snitched on. That's why they're salty. Fuq everything else. U asked what I stand for and I told you. What else you want.
HipHop has alot of fake shiiit and contrary to what people think, hiphop accepts and tolerates alot of BULLSHIIT, N.ggaz kissing each other, former COPS/C.O officers, identity theift, n.ggaz who wear skirts, n.ggaz with braids lol.
However one thing that the hiphop community does not and i think will never accept is a sniitch.
I never knew this about travis porter but they did put in work back in them black mobb days and its folks in the street that vouch for them
what they snitch on, i dont understand but regardless it Time
man i wanna know why/what these cats snitched for before I decide how to feel b/c the " stop snitching rule" is probably the dumbest trend blk folks follow.
Its not even a trend started by us Deso. The Italians adopted it long before us; Irish, all other types of organized crime. Its kinda dead now. In "A Bronx Tale" C witnesses Sunny murder a man. He didn't tell because in his hood a rat was the lowest thing you could be. Hell, stop snitching was only meant for cats that sold drugs but many misunderstood it for an umbrella term. Its gets deep.
And everybody in ATL don't sound the same dude….some got accents some dont, but its in the south & every region has accents and its a big difference between being southern and being country and ive been there and hv heard plenty of females from other regions say how country and late midwest people are but to each his own and I won't go in on detroit which I hv been to and seen for myself….no matter where anyone is from that like or think where they are from is the best but I can only say it must be something good in ATL because millions of people hv moved here since the 80s….country is the way u carry yourself,the way dress,how late u are on shit….and the ATL has been on the forefront, up on shit first and on its own shit for quite a while…I respect every place and no I don't like most of these clowns that rep the ATL but that's what the image the industry seems to want to put out there but just know everybody isn't like the bs image they put out of ATL we hv millions of people on all types of different vibes….so chill with the willie lynch shit u making his words reign true when u hate or talk down on another black man that's different than you.
and this video is Eastside Decatur dudes and everybody knows that most dudes in decatur/eastside country….they are totally different from people that live in the city of atlanta,the swats or the westside…the eastside vibe is different than the city or the westside but decatur does hv some bad females…..
also is this video real? how did they get an original copy of a police statement unless they are police officers thmselves ,maybe they hv a family member who is one and the found the forms laying around and filled them out,or they are janitors and found it laying in the trash of the precinct…..
Willie Lynch never existed and the "A" is poppin, I can't front but its a bunch of fakers down there too, flexin. Been there a few times and also considered moving down there but what have you seen in my city that you can go in on? Don't hold back. Detroit N1ggas come down to the A and run you n1ggas. Ask BMF. Where you think they came from?
BMF didnt run me or anybody i knew and from what i saw and knew they got together with bosses in the atl it wasnt like it was a drug war in the streets all the d boys bosses from everywhere got together….they came here for the lifestyle and location from what i was told….thats like themChambers brothers who moved to Detroit from the rural south of Arkansas and set up shop in Detroit and ran the city,in atl it wasnt even like that it was more like a co op Atl and didnt hv no problem with BMF everybody got more money and shit was sweet for everybody but it wasnt no gunplay involved in them being in the Atl…BMF was wholesale they werent on the Atl streets they dealt with bosses and made the ATL the base
Hahahaah you got a lil hurt on that last statement I made. No hate bro. They obtained the vid through the freedom of info act. You can get a hold of anything if you just ask for it. Either way the A is cool with me, and I know some talk with that accent and some don't like Jeezy. I find that kinda odd how that can be but anyway just the way these guys talk irritates me. Just pure ignorance is what I got from it. Nothing against the whole city. Peace
shit bothers me too….
Y'all must haven't seen the new first 48 tshirt logo,,,, " WHY DO TEN,,,, WHEN U CAN TELL IN A FRIEND",,,,,it's a whole bunch of cats need this shirt ,, lol
" WHY DO TEN,,,,,,WHEN YOU CAN TELL ON A FRIEND",,,, lol
These niggas aint lyin bout these niggas…Ali and Quez been some hoes aint put in no work nun of that s#$t…..Ali was wit blackmobb since day one but he aint never been on no street #$%#t he used to always #%^# wit da hoes…..strap was the only one in the streets and he aint have nun but 1 foot in……idk were tha ffuck quez came from but I know lil e shot his ass before i got locked up fa that black mobb #$%….im a day 1 nigga and these niggas flexxin strap good but ali and quez some hoes and tell em JR said dat niggas know me Tha Shooter ask somebody

December 21, 2012, 12:50 PM —
REUTERS/Joshua Roberts
In his first speech since last week's mass shooting at a Connecticut school, Wayne LaPierre, executive vice president of the National Rifle Association, cast blame for the killing spree everywhere but guns, advocating for armed guards in U.S. schools and decrying the "dirty little truth" of a "shadow industry that sells, and sows, violence" -- video games.
Increased calls for stricter gun control measures have followed the shootings in Newtown, Connecticut, in which Adam Lanza, 20, shot and killed his mother and then went to Sandy Hook Elementary School and gunned down 20 children and six women, including the principal, school psychologist and teachers, before turning a gun on himself.
Earlier this week, President Barack Obama appointed Vice President Joe Biden to investigate legislative measures that could be taken to help stem the growing number of mass shootings and other gun crime. Biden has until the end of January to provide some recommendations and appears set to look at not just gun control but violence in U.S. pop culture and how the country treats its mentally ill.
But the NRA had stayed largely silent, releasing a written statement Tuesday saying that the lobbying group for the gun industry and its 4 million members "were shocked, saddened and heartbroken by the news of the horrific and senseless murders in Newtown. Out of respect for the families, and as a matter of common decency, we have given time for mourning, prayer and a full investigation of the facts before commenting. The NRA is prepared to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again."
Apparently, the NRA's definition of meaningful includes this revelation: "And here's another dirty little truth that the media try their best to conceal: There exists in this country a callous, corrupt and corrupting shadow industry that sells, and sows, violence against its own people," LaPierre said in the televised news conference."Through vicious, violent video games with names like 'Bulletstorm,' 'Grand Theft Auto,' 'Mortal Kombat' and 'Splatterhouse.' "

Neither Mark Ruffalo or Robert Downey, Jr. will be contributing, but Marvel says that the voice actors for the film will be consistent with the "tone and character" established in The Avengers.

The post Hulk and Iron Man Animated Feature Coming in 2013 appeared first on Comics Cavern.
The Marvel NOW! era of the Hulk kicks off with the upcoming Indestructible Hulk #1, to be written by Mark Waid with art from Lenil Yu. There's a lot we don't know - why Hulk is sporting armor, why he's apparently now an agent of S.H..I.E.L.D., and what Brice Banner's role in all this is, after the events of Jason Aaron's Incredibly Hulk run.
What we do have, via Newsarama, is a look at Yu's pencils. Unsurprisingly, they're pretty awesome.
Here's a look at Incredible Hulk #11 from writer Jason Aaron and artist Dalibor Talajic, in stores July 25.
⢠Banner continues to torment the Hulk as the STAY ANGRY arc continues!

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney accused Democratic President Barack Obama of launching a "war on religion" in a television ad released Thursday.
"President Obama used his health care plan to declare war on religion, forcing religious institutions to go against their faith," the ad's announcer states.
The spot pans to a shot of Romney on his recent visit to Poland saying, "In 1979, a son of Poland, Pope John Paul II, spoke words that would bring down an empire. Be not afraid."
It concludes, "When religious freedom is threatened, who do you want to stand with?"
The attack relates to a provision in Obama's health care overhaul requiring insurance companies to cover contraception with no co-pays. The Obama administration announced in January that it would exempt churches from the requirement, but not religious hospitals, charities or colleges that provide insurance plans to employees. After an outcry from Catholic leaders, who oppose the use of birth control, the administration said a religious employer would not be required to provide or pay for contraception coverage, but a woman's insurance company would be required to offer contraception coverage for free.
"President Obama believes that, in 2012, women should have access to free contraception as part of their health insurance," Obama campaign spokeswoman Lis Smith said, "and he has done so in a way that respects religious liberty."
Smith said Romney "would take women's health back to the 1950s," citing comments by Romney that he would cut federal funding for Planned Parenthood, an organization that provides women's health care and abortion services to low-income women.
The ad comes as the Obama campaign has been focusing on women's issues. The campaign recently released a video featuring actress Elizabeth Banks talking about the importance of Planned Parenthood and criticizing Romney for wanting to cut it.
Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke this week campaigned for Obama in Colorado. Fluke got national recognition after conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh denounced her in harsh language for wanting to testify at a congressional hearing in favor of mandated coverage for contraception.

An incredibly popular film in its time and for many years later, The Little Colonel now comes across as severely dated. This is, of course, most obvious in the manner in which its black characters are sometimes treated and delineated, but the problem goes deeper than that -- the story itself is pure cornball hokum. Even those with a taste for this may find much of Colonel a little hard to swallow, for the screenplay is simply bad. And yet Colonel has a fair share of rewards, starting with the unlikely but totally charming teaming of Shirley Temple and Lionel Barrymore. Barrymore's patented crustiness is a perfect foil for Temple's abundant charm, and though the script makes the inevitable melting rather sticky and gooey, Barrymore makes it palatable. And though her apple-cheek wholesomeness is easy to parody and mock, Temple really did have something -- and she pulls out all the stops to make you like that something, working so hard that even the most resistant are likely to give in. Of course, Colonel also has one of the true classic movie musical moments, the "stair dance" between Temple and Bill Robinson. It's three minutes of sheer magic and is able to transport the viewer out of the picture and into a little slice of heaven. Colonel itself is dated, but that sequence is solid gold.

New Mastodon in 2013
I'm looking forward to new Amon Amarth and new Mastodon releases this year. Today's photo is from a couple summers ago.
The video below is an HD version of almost a third of the concert where I took today's pic. I actually appear in this video in several places. For instance from 1:37 to 1:39 you can see me in the photo pit. I'm the tallest one in there.

Oakland Athletics : The Drumbeat
All about the Oakland A's
Posts by Author
All-Star break offers little hope, except on the farm
A mostly depressing All-Star break, with immovable object Bud Selig still holding to his non-position on the stadium situation. Things are bleak on the field too. Nico on Athletics Nation posted that the five-year rebuilding effort looks like a trainwreck. The only question, as texasfan put it on the last thread, is whether to rebuild […] [Read More]
Harden sharp, Ellis hits in River Cats win
Playing a rare weekday day game, the Sacramento River Cats topped the Fresno Grizzlies 3-2 today (box). Rehabbing Rich Harden pitched the first three innings, allowing no runs or hits, striking out six and walking one in throwing 42 pitches. He could be back with the Oakland A's by next homestand. In the same game, […] [Read More]
Oakland A's: Time to clean house?
It's a bit more than a third of the way through the season, and we know what kind of team the Oakland A's have–a disappointing one. The A's have the best pitching in the American League by a wide margin (3.01 ERA to second place Seattle's 3.36), primarily because they throw so many ground ball […] [Read More]
A's vs. Giants: Get your one-liners on!
It's been a tough eight months to be an A's fan. Outnumbered in every battle, we face situations like my son did on the first day of Little League, when the coach asked everyone to name his favorite player. Four Brian Wilsons, three Tim Lincecums, two Buster Poseys … and when Kailen said "Coco Crisp," […] [Read More]
Something's gotta give
What could be a telling four-game series with the Rangers begins tonight at the I-won't-use-the-new name Coliseum, with the Oakland A's only three back of Texas despite their punchless start. Tonight's lineup: Ellis 2B, Barton 1B, Jackson RF, Willingam LF, Suzuki DH, DeJesus CF, Kouzmanoff 3B, Powell C, Pennington SS, Cahill P. The Dallas Morning […] [Read More]
Pitching showdown in Anaheim
Susan's covering the Sharks-Kings game in LA tonight, so she'll be missing the Jared Weaver vs. Gio Gonzalez showdown in Anaheim. Think the total score will be lower than the hockey game? She did tweet the A's lineup: Crisp CF, Barton 1B, DeJesus RF, Willingham LF, Matsui DH, Suzuki C, Ellis 2B, Kouz 3B, Pennington […] [Read More]
A frustrating week…
The dismal homestand ends with three series losses and a 3-6 record. – Why is Loaiza still in the starting rotation (besides salary)? He's had one decent start in four tries. Saarloos had a good game in relief today (except for one pitch to Vlad), it's time to give him a spot start. Billy and […] [Read More]
It's the Interfere-off
It's fun to watch your major competitor implode — as in the K-Rod sulk-off last summer. But it sure feels weird when a well-managed team like the Angels blows a game the way they did Friday night. Rookie catcher Jeff Mathis chased after two pop fouls like a Labrador retriever, catching neither, preventing the third […] [Read More]
Questioning Macha's pinch-hit decisions
From Mike Massa of The Sporting Green staff: Random thoughts from an A's game only available on the radio and Internet — a description for many of their games so far this year. So Ken Macha's big problem is supposedly having too many good hitters. Then why, with the bases loaded and only one out […] [Read More]
Is the starting pitching THAT bad?
Probably not. The A's have gone through the rotation three times now, with a stunning staff ERA of 6.21, third worst in the league. Of the five starters only Rich Harden (3.66) has an ERA under 5. But a look the WHIP (walks and hits per inning pitched) tells a different story. Yes, Esteban Loaiza's […] [Read More]

Greg Bordner has seemingly boundless energy. The 65-year-old grandfather of two still runs the magic company founded by his father in 1934, and he loves fishing and attending Michigan State football and basketball games.
It's hard to believe that less than one year ago, Bordner was on the brink of death from congestive heart failure — fighting for the chance to get a lifesaving heart transplant.
That Bordner did receive a new heart is a testament to both his own spirit and the two mechanical heart pumps that helped him regain the physical strength he needed to endure the rigors of transplantation.
Health Concerns
Bordner's health problems began in 1998, when he had a heart attack and triple bypass surgery. He had experienced fatigue and weakness for months. But although he suspected these symptoms were related to heart disease — both his father and an uncle died of heart attacks — he hadn't gone to the doctor.
Within a decade of his bypass, Bordner developed a potentially deadly combination of problems: congestive heart failure, severe pulmonary hypertension and an arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat. "I was dying," he says. "You could see it."
That's when he decided to come to Rush University Medical Center to seek treatment — a decision that saved his life.
Specialists with the heart failure, heart transplant and mechanical circulatory support program at Rush implanted an automatic cardiac defibrillator in Bordner's chest and put him on an aggressive regimen of medications. But within months, Bordner became increasingly short of breath and his symptoms worsened.
Because his heart function was continuing to deteriorate, heart failure specialists José Méndez, MD, and Barbara Pisani, DO, recommended a heart transplant.
Gaining Ground
Even if a donor heart had become available at that time, Bordner was so frail he would not have been a good candidate for transplantation. He needed help first — and he got it, thanks to left and right ventricular assist devices, which keep the heart pumping and maintain blood circulation.
Cardiovascular surgeons at Rush have extensive experience implanting these mechanical pumps to help patients become eligible for transplantation or as a permanent solution for those who aren't eligible for transplants.
For six weeks, Bordner remained in the surgical intensive care unit, where, assisted by the critical care doctors and nurses, he focused on regaining his strength. He devoted himself to his daily exercises until he was finally able to walk unaided. When doctors found a compatible donor heart, Bordner was ready — both physically and emotionally.
Robert Higgins, MD, cardiovascular surgeon, removed the ventricular assist devices and implanted Bordner's new heart on September 30, 2008. Three months later, after intensive rehabilitation, Bordner returned home, happy to be alive and grateful to have been given a second chance. "I'm not 100 percent yet, but I'm so much stronger now," he says. "My horizons are so much brighter."

Cinderella Sweet 16 Cake
I was going for a more elegant, grown-up vision of a Cinderella birthday cake. I wanted it to be fitting of a young lady turning 16 and having a "Cinderella's Ball" themed party.
I had promised a gumpaste "glass" slipper. But I really wanted to try an make one out of sugar… So, I made myself a template and was able to make the shoe out of isomalt. I'm so proud of how it came out! This is the first time I've ever used isomalt/sugar decorations!

Bix Weir: Another 2008 Right Around the Corner
Financial writer and analyst Bix Weir says what is going on in Ferguson, Missouri,
is more than just a police action gone deadly.
Published on Aug 19, 2014
Weir says, "There is definitely discontent out there. The press covers so many things up, and the government gives us so many lies on statistics, such as unemployment, about GDP, and you name it, they lie about it. There is so much bubbling up under the surface, and I do think this is the beginning of something much bigger. . . .I see another 2008 coming right around the corner. . . . The majority of Americans are not doing well. . . .The 99% are saying something is wrong here. Something is off, and as soon as there is another hiccup with the economy, with more bank fraud, you are going to see a big uprising throughout the United States."
So, where does Weir think we are in this downward spiral? Weir contends, "There are a hundred things right now that could tip us over a cliff. One of the big ones is the U.S. dollar. You got China, Russia, the BRICS countries are basically abandoning the U.S. dollar.
How long can they keep this Ponzi scheme of an economy game going? Bix Weir of http://RoadToRoota.com contends, "It's almost exactly like the "Wizard of Oz" and the little man behind the curtain. He's sitting in the basement of the U.S. Treasury and New York Fed orchestrating all these players to do what they are supposed to do. They get all the banks to rig every market to make sure the system stays together. It's hit a point now that it's so big and so unwieldy that they want it to crash, so we can move on to something else." Weir goes on to say, "There are two groups that want it to crash. The bankers, because they know they are in trouble because of so many misdeeds. They want it to crash so they can say who could have helped this. The whole world crashed, it wasn't our fault.
Then, there are people in the United States that would love the system to crash because when the system crashes and the dollar crashes, all debt goes away. All electronic debt and all mortgage debt will be wiped out because these bankers will be bankrupt.
All debt will be gone because that is the biggest problem right now. . . . If all the debt is gone, then all the electronic assets will be gone too because the debt is somebody's asset, and it is usually the bankers that claim that. This whole system will shut down. They have been ready to go back to some sort of gold backed system. This will be the biggest thing to happen in human history."

Bix Weir: Another 2008 Around the Corner
Interesting Times & Opinions
Nazi Website Used to Scare Jews, Launder Cash
By Gordon Duff, Senior Editor
Rense Radio Network – 01-22-13 Interview of Gordon Duff
Bix Weir Update
It looks like the attempt by the Good Guys for a smooth, peaceful transition are being discarded. Although many Bad Guys have stood down, some are not and there's talk in the "conspiracy world" of an armed confrontation on many fronts . . . but everybody's waiting for the first shot. It's clear to me that the movement on banning guns has a hidden agenda and it's not about "disarming the public", but the opposite. We The People are being coaxed into arming ourselves by the Good Guys for a potential battle. I'm not a fan of this tactic as it plays into the hands of the Bad Guys.
But there is another option and I am believe that both scenarios are running in parallel. It won't foster the smooth monetary transition that the Good Guys had hoped for but it will remove the power from the Bad Guys overnight. It comes down to where the Bad Guys get their power and influence. It's all about MONEY. Without the control of money they can't control us nor can they hire forces to do their dirty work or even protect themselves. They even told us what their Achilles Heel was centuries ago . . . .
"Let me issue and control a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws."
Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744-1812)
Now let's reverse it . . . .
"Take away the power to issue and control a nation's money and the Bankers are totally EXPOSED to the Power of the People." Bix Weir (2013)
And those of you who have followed me on this Road for so long know just how to take the power of issuing and coining money from the bankers . . . BUY SILVER! Buy enough physical silver to set off the derivative "Weapon of Mass Financial Destruction" and they lose. Everything related to this phantom monetary system will be destroyed and we can start fresh.
We the People can do this without using our guns.
May the Road you choose be the Right Road.

Too Many Coincidences: The DTCC's $36.5 TRILLION Flood Fraud
Bix Weir & Andy Hoffman
SPECIAL REPORT: Bix Weir and Andy Hoffman join me to discuss the latest breaking Wall Street Fraud: The DTCC's claim that a large amount of their $36.5 Trillion in securities holdings at 55 Water Street in NYC have been "damaged" by flooding from Hurricane Sandy. How convenient. Just when the criminality on Wall Street reaches an apex, they come up with a way to burn (or drown) the evidence of their epic crimes. Just like on 9/11 when WTC-7 collapsed at free fall speed taking along with it all of the documents in the ongoing Enron fraud investigation. You can't make this shit up. That's why we wanted to get this on the record.

Martin Armstrong's New Essay
Well worth reading and understanding the implications of what he has to say.
Mr. Armstrong like many others sees financial meltdown in our near future. What his models can't tell us is where we go from there.
I would suggest listening to this from Bix Weir:
I would also suggest tuning into what FOFOA has to say as regards Freegold: http://fofoa.blogspot.com/
I would also suggest you tune into Jim "Santa" Sinclair:
A helping of Jim Willie would not go astray.
Richard Russell of Dow Theory letters: http://www.businessinsider.com/dow-theorist-richard-russell-sell-everything-liquid-you-wont-recognize-america-by-the-end-of-the-year-2010-5?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+clusterstock+%28ClusterStock%29
There are many others who are willing to put their reputations on the line. Some for money others for the greater good. The bottom line is we are in uncharted territory if the Dollar collapses or at least is no longer the worlds reserve currency.
There are many theories of what could happen or should happen all the way from a brave new world to hunting each other for food. See "The Road" for that particularly depressing thought. On second thoughts don't. I only managed to get 3/4's of the way through that miserable movie. It was just too depressing.
Best case scenario is Bix Weir/ FOFOA and worst case is "The Road". A controlled collapse by the good guys hurting many people but with a return to sound fiscal policy or worse than the dark ages.
What to take away from all this is we may muddle through, there might be a rapture leaving all the bankers here to fend off demons or we may simply have to start a new monetary system that everyone understands and can trust. We don't know.
But you can make some preparations if you see financial collapse in our future. Think "Mad Max" and "Bartertown" and you should be OK.
What do people want and what do people need?
The basics: Food, Water, Shelter and Self Defense.
Luxuries: Booze, smokes and toilet paper.
If it's Hyper Inflation, Stagflation get them now before the prices goes up.
If it's Hyper Deflation get them now while you still can.
The message is get what you can now.
The Road To Roota by Bix Weir
It was January 2007 when I first discovered the information released by the Federal Reserve Bank, Boston that changed my understanding of the gold & silver markets, the financial markets, the energy markets, the monetary system as well as the true essence of my country, the United States of America. Interestingly enough it came in the form of a children's comic book.
The Road to Roota Theory postulates that there is a group of people in the United States as well as around the world that are working to remove and destroy the financial banking powers that have secretly controlled all aspects of our lives for hundreds of years. The original idea of this group sprang from the mind of Alan Greenspan and involved rigging markets with computer programs that he had invented in the 1960's. The original articles can be found here:
The Original Road to Roota
My understanding of the way the world worked was blown to bits and replaced with a more unified theory on all things monetary… all things that lead us down The Road to Roota otherwise known as the Road to the Gold Standard.
Greenspan's Golden Secret
The following concepts are the key support pillars in The Road to Roota Theory and I have linked the support articles as back up. Once you understand these concepts you will understand what is happening all around you as the world you once knew comes crumbling down to be replaced by a new and better system.
1) All markets have been 100% controlled by computer programs since the 1970's in order to steer and control prices thus prolonging the fiat monetary system.
2) A powerful cabal of the world's elite have taken over that market manipulation process and twisted it to enhance their own profits while pretending to service their nation's best interests.
3) In the early 1900's the United States embarked on a secret policy to hide all of its own natural resources and exploit the rest of the world's until resource scarcity was fully recognized.
4) In order to support the oil backed US Dollar and the world's petro-based economic system the "powers that be" have hidden new energy technologies that would greatly benefit the world's population as well as the environment.
5) Since 911 there is a group of people and governments that have decided "enough is enough" and are in the process of removing the banking cabal from their seat of power.
6) The planned destruction of the fiat monetary system is the type of "Creative Destruction" event that will force the implementation of a new Gold Standard within the United States.
You may argue all you want about my interpretation and conclusions but there will be no arguing the final results. When the final crash comes the facts will show that the Road to Roota Theory was the closest thing to a "correct analysis" of the gold market available at this time in history.
This is your peek behind the curtain of the Great and Powerful OZ!
As we read the papers today the events are unfolding before us. The real question now is what will happen in the future? Will we be cast into a deep and dark depression with no hope for future generations or will we survive and even thrive as we make this transition?
Here is my interpretation of all the information found in the RoadtoRoota.com archives:
These conclusions may sound way too positive and outrageously naive but everything I watch points to a very bright future…even if it takes a few bumps to get there!
1) The collapse of the fiat monetary system will be total and complete equalizing the playing field between the "haves" and the "have-nots".
2) All paper/electronic debt and assets will evaporate with the collapse of the fiat money system.3) Those who have perpetrated the outrageous and monstrous crimes of the past 100 years will be hunted down and prosecuted (if they are lucky).4) The US will issue a new gold backed currency (domestically) allocating it according to future social security payments due.5) The US will allocate much of the new gold backed money to support the funding of schools, police, health care, infrastructure and other necessities for a fully functioning society.6) Globalization will end upon the collapse of the derivative structure and all countries will end global trade concentrating on their own internal commerce.7) All US overseas troops will return home to protect our boarders and ensure the safety of our citizens.8) The US population will be fully employed working to replace all the overseas production lost in the reversal of Globalization.9) The United States will tap into its VAST natural resources that have been hidden away for years in National Parks, Military Bases and sites deemed "Ecologically Sensitive".10) A vast array of new energy technologies will be revealed since there will be no more need for the "oil standard" that has supported the US Dollar for the past 50 years.11) The implementation of the new monetary system will usher in a glorious new "Golden Age" that the world will embrace after years of being lead around like "Sheeple".We are on the cusp of something truly momentous in the history of the human race. With the full transition there is no need to lose the free markets system. Truthfully, a true "Free Market" system has never been given the chance it deserves with all the market rigging of the past 100 years.We will be free again. We will resurrect our Constitution and we will make the United States of America the Land of Liberty that our forefathers envisioned.Let's pray that the change is peaceful.
Coming Collapse of The Fiat System

$6,000 Silver & ONE BANK
The silver markets are rigged. Every day. Every trade. Every option. Every derivative. The silver markets have been rigged since the early 1970's when Alan Greenspan introduced computer market trading systems to the world beginning the long term commodity market rigging operation.
Since that time there has not been a day when the silver markets have been "freely traded". Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, knows the true "Fair Market Value" of silver!
But like all price suppression schemes, the silver manipulation must come to an end and we are on the brink of that moment. The only remaining question should be "What is the true value of silver in terms of money?"
First a little background to set the stage.
Computer Commodity Trading
Beginning in the early 1970's, computers were introduced to control the order flow in financial markets. Order processing was drastically changed with the New York Stock Exchange's "designated order turnaround" system (DOT, and later SuperDOT) which routed orders electronically to the proper trading post to be executed manually, and the "opening automated reporting system" (OARS) which aided the specialist in determining the market clearing opening price (SOR; Smart Order Routing).
Today we have algorithmic trading, auto trading, algo trading, black-box trading, robo trading…and the list goes on. Algorithmic Trading is widely used by pension funds, mutual funds, and other buy side institutional traders, to divide large trades into several smaller trades in order to manage market impact, and risk. Sell side traders, such as market makers and hedge funds, claim to provide "liquidity to the market", generating and executing orders automatically. In "high frequency trading" (HFT) computers make the decision to initiate orders based on information that is received electronically, before human traders are even aware of the information.
Over the years computers have played an increasingly important role in everything related to our "free and open market system" such that today's financial markets CANNOT function without computers. The Federal Reserve, US Treasury, Wall Street insiders and the Exchanges were all instrumental in the integration of computers but they also gained access to secret trading information before the order hit the open market. This information coupled with the fastest computers on earth made market manipulation easy.
This power, the power to control markets, was too much for anyone to resist. Over time those who were given the official key to the back office operations have used and abused their position to its manipulative fullest. Although some of the time they used this power in an official capacity (for the good of the country), more often than not it was used in an unofficial capacity… for the good of themselves.
Bernie Madoff, the ex-head of the NASAQ, was a great example of this public to private transition as his private trading firm was all computer algorithm based market rigging operations. There are many other ex-Exchange/Wall Street officers that went on to open computer trading operations. Many continue to thrive such as EWT, LLC which became a dominant trading/market making firm using "state-of-the-art technology and algorithmic models". EWT was founded by Vincent Viola (ex NYMEX Chairman) and David Salomon (reported to Robert Ruben at Goldman Sachs) and are also an "Authorized Participant" in the iShares Silver ETF (SLV).
Are you beginning to see the problem? He who has the biggest, fastest and smartest computers (or programmers) can set the price and will ALWAYS WIN! No longer is there any kind of true supply/demand factors related to commodity exchanges or prices. Computer trading should be outlawed…the convenience and efficiency it provides does not offset the detrimental effects and potential for total and complete market manipulation.
CFTC Created to Cover Up the Manipulation
When the computer rigging programs were implemented there needed to be some kind of cover to ensure secrecy and maintain a false confidence in free markets. In 1974 Congress passed the Commodity Futures Trading Commission Act that overhauled the Commodity Exchange Act and created the CFTC as an independent agency with powers greater than those of its predecessor agency, the Commodity Exchange Authority.
From that moment the CFTC has been run by board appointees that showcased a revolving door of Wall Street insiders ensuring that the computer market rigging operations were not interfered with. The only notable exception is Brooksley Born who was fired by President Clinton when she found out the truth about our supposed "free markets" and tried to warn everyone. (see The Warning)
Listen to Brooksley Born explain the problems in her own words when she accepted her JFK Profiles in Courage Award in August 2009.
A while back I gave up my fight against the CFTC as I determined that they were NOT protecting the best interest of the investor but rather they were protecting the computer market rigging operations and the people involved. Here is one of my last articles on the subject:
Road to Roota III — Who's the little man behind the curtain?
Now that you have some background let's get back to $6,000 Silver!
Historically, when any price rigging operation stops the violence of the ensuing price changes are determined by the length and scale of the manipulation as well as the underlying fundamentals of the item being rigged. Take for example the famous 1980's case of the Hunt brothers trying to corner the silver market. From early 1974 the Hunt brothers started accumulating silver which ultimately drove the price from $6/oz to $50/oz until January 21, 1980 when the CFTC finally pulled the plug on their operation. Within 2 months the price of silver plummeted from $50/oz to $10/oz and the silver price was back under control of the US Government and Banking Cabal. An excellent account of what transpired can be found here:
This account shows what can happen to the price of a manipulated commodity when the price manipulation is ended. In the case of the Hunt Brothers the manipulation lasted 6 years and involved approximately 130M oz of physical silver and 90M oz of COMEX silver contracts. This was an attempt at a Long Silver price manipulation but it was going on while the Short Silver Official manipulation was going on trying to keep the price down. The only way the Hunt's accumulated so much silver without the price heading into the many thousands of dollars was the official computer price suppression operation.
The manipulation was ended when the CFTC stopped all COMEX Silver purchases and allowed only silver liquidation sales instantly driving the price down. In 1980 the US Government held 3B oz of silver and in order to maintain the lower silver price levels they sold the entire stock of silver into the market over the next 25 years. That excess supply combined with other governments divesting their silver was enough to continue the price suppression scheme for almost 40 years. That supply is now gone.
One Bank has the Hot Potato
So here we are 40 years after the official manipulation of silver began and the world is finally awakening to the situation. The CFTC, having investigated silver manipulation allegations twice previously, has had an open investigation into silver market manipulation for almost 2 years. They have even stated that the investigation was moved to the "Enforcement Division" within the CFTC which pretty much tells you what the conclusion of the investigation revealed. The FBI has separately stated that they are investigating JP Morgan for silver market manipulation. These two facts and the absolute SILENCE from JP Morgan are strong indicators that the long term manipulation of silver is about to end.
Ted Butler of Butler Research has been exposing the official manipulation of Silver for the past 25 years. His research was instrumental in exposing the gold/silver leasing operations and the massive concentrated short positions in both gold and silver. On September 3, 2008 Butler published a report entitled Fact Versus Speculation where he showed how one bank, JP Morgan Chase, took over the Bear Stearns Silver COMEX Short position of 30,000 contracts or 150M oz.
Since this report was published JP Morgan has continued its silver market rigging antics in an effort to get out of this precarious short position. After Butler exposed JPM as the culprit there have been wild orchestrated swings in the price of silver as JPM attempts to cover their massive COMEX short position. The price of silver has risen from $13 to currently over $20 in this time frame and the size of the short position held by JP Morgan has gyrated wildly between 30k and 40k contracts as they desperately try to shake the longs to cover their shorts. But even with this rise in price the short position is STILL above 30k contracts according to the CFTC's latest Bank Participation Report.
Add to this various silver market manipulation tools such as naked shorting silver ETF's, falsifying COMEX warehouse data, unallocated silver, leasing and swapping metal and you have a situation that dwarfs the Hunt brothers case.
Of course, JP Morgan is no ordinary bank because they are also the LARGEST derivative holder in the WORLD at $75.3 TRILLION! Do remember Warren Buffett calling derivatives "Weapons of Mass Financial Destruction"? Well, JP Morgan holds the mother load when it comes to silver too with $8.4 BILLION of Silver derivative contracts!
(OCC Report table 9: Classified as "PREC METALS"… might be a little platinum but not much).
This report was for the quarter ending June 2010 when the price of silver was $18.50. That translates into over 450 MILLION OUNCES of notional silver derivative contracts that remain open!
COME ON PEOPLE! I'm starting to think my $6,000/oz silver call is too conservative!
What's going to happen when JP Morgan's derivative monument comes crashing down…which it almost did in September 2008?
So here's where I get to $6,000 per oz for silver.
1) I know silver has not been freely traded in 40 years so today's price if irrelevant.
2) I, like many, estimate there is only about 1B ounces in above ground physical silver for investment purposes.
3) I, like many, estimate there is only 5B ounces of above ground physical gold for investment purposes.
4) If the price of gold is not manipulated, like the banks claim, then the price of silver should be 5x the price of gold due to its supply/demand fundamentals.
CONCLUSION: The price of gold is around $1,200/oz so the true Fair Market Value of Silver should be around $6,000/oz in a FREE market!
It's simple, if you remove ONE BANK from the supply side of the equation the price of silver will SKYROCKET overnight.
ONE BANK controls the price of silver.
ONE BANK controls the fate of our monetary system.
ONE BANK is behind the curtain pulling the silver manipulation levers.
ONE BANK has control over a nation that was founded by "We the People".
May the Road you choose be the Right Road.

America just witnessed the first and only debate between vice presidential candidates Sen. Joe Biden and Gov. Sarah Palin. How do you think they did?
If you missed the debate, click here for CNN reports on the veep faceoff.
I thought they both did well; however, I thought Biden won the debate. He wiped the floor with her on foreign policy (although expected), and he spoke in a way that I thought really connected with American's middle class - just as she did for the people she's trying to appeal to.
I don't think much changed after their debate in terms of actual votes. Republicans who were questioning Palin before might feel better about her, but it's not like they would have ever voted for Obama. She just made it a little easier for them to vote for her (McCain) now. Either way - no votes lost for Obama.
i hate to admit it but i fell asleep again.ReplyDelete
I think Tina Fey should run for VP.ReplyDelete

Tripwire HookComments0

Tripwire Hooks are redstone-affiliated items in Minecraft. They were first released in the 1.3.1 Update. Tripwire hooks can be placed on the sides of blocks (not the top or bottom and excluding half slabs that are not stacked) and can be armed by placing string on the ground in a horizontal line between two tripwire hooks. If a player or another mob falls or steps on the tripwire when it is activated, it will power the Tripwire Hooks and be able to send a continuous redstone signal as long as an entity or player is over the tripwire. If the tripwire is broken, the Tripwire Hook will send a short current after being deactivated. However, you can safely disarm it by destroying the string; only obtainable if shears are used. Tripwire Hooks can be found in a jungle temple rigged to dispensers
|Tripwire Hook
|Iron Ingot
|Wooden Plank
- If the tripwire hook is armed, when you destroy it, it makes a sound similar to the sound it makes when you release a bow.
- A trip wire line can be activated by arrows, once the arrow is picked up the signal will stop. If you're using a dispenser the dispenser will shoot one more arrow when deactivated.

Win7 Pro 64
AV software ThreatFire + MSE
Back then, when i wanted to use Avast, I also looked up threatfire and read something along the lines of integration with other av software.
i installed both, but that was a long time ago. over a long period, i switched to AVG Free, and now MSE.
So now, would Threatfire and MSE be compatible/a wise choice to keep in my computer??
I would do whichever benefits the computer more. (either deleting threatfire or keeping it)

I wouldn't run two AV's as they can conflict and combine to slow down your system.
MSE with Windows 7 firewall are perfectly optimized for no impact on performance. Avast is nearly as good but bothers the user while MSE disappears and becomes invisible.

The firee 9.0 version of AVG being installed after the MS SE wouldn't see any problems since the SE is geared not to clash with most of the existing av softwares on the market. It tends to be more of a adware/spyware detector then any full av program where one requires the other be uninstalled first before you can install the newer.
The SE installer however works best when any other av program is removed and then put back afterwards. From there it won't clash but may catch what the typical program misses. Before changing av programs here the two never clashed with each other for several months of use. With the new build however a new program that combined av/adware/spyware/rootkit protections along with a working firewall and web filtering! was sought.
(Note the better the web filtering the less likely to see various bugs slip past any protections inplace.)

Threatfire is a behaviour blocker. You should have no problems running it with any anti-virus.
While it shouldn't affect the protection offered (simply because it is a behaviour blocker), since the Symantec acquisition of PC Tools, development of Threatfire has slowed.
A new, smaller team is now working on Threatfire and after months of inactivity, there is a new version being beta tested.
Threatfire can provide extra protection over MSE.

You definitely need more then just the SE. While IE for example has seen improvements with antiphising filtering it still won't block various sites that will dump things on your system. The same is also seen with other browsers since ways have been in use to get around those as well.
With Symantec grabbing Threatfire what would you expect since they have been known for bloatware over the years. That takes time to instill in a new program they acquire!
As far as running that along with the SE the only way to know is by trying both together while the SE was found to be unintrusive compared to the typical dilemna seen when trying to run two of the usual name av programs together. The Windows Defender is on all the time for most systems regardless of what other protections you have installed from 3rd party sources and doesn't see clashes being another MS additive.
(and like many previous MS bug chasers not very effective either! )

One thing found here for sure when installed finding all security areas checked off with green check marks is "Only $$$ for 12 months of protection
(tax inclusive)"
That shows the retail part of that for sure when you see the "recommend you upgrade now" and browser hijack to the buy now page! "kiss off!" GGGrrrrrr...... gimic to sell the other programs. No thanks!
It went on like another AdAware or Spyware Terminator type program looking for tracking cookies and shouldn't pose a problem with any av program to start with.

In honor of Father's Day, Onehunted's Ike Ewell caught up with Wale Oyéjidé, the mastermind behind the Ikire Jones brand, to discuss how Oyéjidé balances entrepreneurship with fatherhood—and still manages to look good, do good, and feel good.
"It's really all about conviction. When you walk into a room, people believe whatever you believe you are."
"I walk down the street wearing Ikire Jones, I always get approached by people from all walks of life: old white women, young white women, old white men, like everybody, saying: 'That's beautiful!' Because it's so outlandish to them, but it's also in a manner that's not a caricature or a costume. They get it because for me it's not something that I'm self-conscious about, it's just something that I'm doing. They see that."
"I think a lot of us are fully capable, intelligent, creative people but if you're not given the right task or a task that sparks your interest, you're not gonna excel."
We know it's warm outside, but never too late to plan for winter. File this look away to rock in 6 months.

Three of our favorite things. Coffee. Upcycling. Clothing that is as fly as it is functional.
ECOALF has combined these three things by upcycling coffee grounds and plastic bottles into performance outerwear. Here's one of the jackets that came from this process.
Like Bionic Yarn, which we profiled previously on Onehunted, everything from ECOALF is made from innovative new forms of fabric that incorporate recycled materials, such as fishing nets, tires, post-industrial cotton, and of course, coffee and plastic bottles.
"We create objects that make your life more enjoyable without damaging our relationship with nature," says ECOALF's manifesto. "And we do it by erasing part of the ecological footprint that is fouling the world."
We're constantly on the road, traversing the planet, connecting with people and companies who share our dedication to making the world a better place. All this travel gives us a bit of baggage about our luggage (if you know what we mean). We just need a bag with wheels that fits in an overhead compartment. Who cares how beautifully crafted it is.
We work hard to consistently present beautifully crafted clothing that is ethically sourced. But our mission is bigger. We want to empower you to align your lifestyle with your values. To this end, here are three quick rules to remember…
Ask questions. Where was this garment made? What were the workers' conditions? How are those conditions monitored? What are the environmental impacts of the production and shipping? The more you ask, the more you learn—and the more the companies seeking your business realize you care.
Buy smart. Buy local. Buy fair trade. Buy organic. Buy quality items that will last. Buy timeless items that won't go out of style. And don't be afraid to buy secondhand!
Clean carefully. Believe it or not, much of the environmental impact of each article of clothing you acquire comes after it enters your wardrobe. And the more you launder fabrics, the quicker they break down, look old, and wear out. Don't over-wash or over-dry your garments. When it's time to clean them, wash lightly and line dry. Opt for eco-friendly dry cleaners when you need to freshen up those suits.
Following these three rules will help you look good, do good, and feel good—the Onehunted way.
For those of us in the northern regions, it has been a cold winter—and we are so grateful to the many geese who have provided their feathers for our warmth. That said…
We're tired of the bulk. Our down jackets hold us down, but they are huge! We've been walking around like marshmallow men for the last two months and we need a break… Yet it's still cold.
Check out the sustainable solution to our wintertime woes…
Ever thought about designing clothes?
You could try to have them manufactured overseas, but you'd instantly be dealing with all sorts of challenges from expensive carbon-intensive shipping costs to being unable to meet and communicate directly with the people actually making your garments… What if there was another way?
In the 1950s, almost all the clothing bought in the U.S. was made in the U.S. This can happen again. Manufacture New York is a hybrid incubator and factory with a mission to rebuild America's fashion industry.
Check out the services they offer and the ways you can be involved. Be a part of revitalizing the U.S. fashion industry.
Idris Elba's tweets had the internet buzzing about bow ties today.
In case you were wondering, you do not have to be Elba to rock a bow tie. To be clear: We are not promising you'll look like him—or get the same physiological reaction—when you put yours on. But what is sure to arouse a great response is putting on an ethically sourced bow tie with a good story behind it…
Meet Forage Haberdashery. Their ties are each hand crafted from vintage and dead stock cotton fabrics. The packaging is handprinted and made in the US from recycled materials. And the designers met in a kissing booth… Learn more about these awesome ties and people here.
If you're not ready to commit to a long term relationship with a short piece of neckwear, check out the new service that's revolutionizing how we get (and get rid of) ties.

People consider me femme but I have some soft butch tendencies.I enjoy going to different events like, street fairs, out door concerts, sporting events, plays and other cultural events in Chicago. I'm also fine with staying home cooking something together and enjoying each other's company. I like to travel especially to a warmer climate when it really gets cold. I live by the Golden Rule.
I'm femme with some soft butch tendencies.I enjoy summer events in Chicago or just a quiet evening at home cooking dinner together enjoying each others company. I like anything water related (maybe because I'm an Aquarian) including boating and walks on the beach. Luv the sound of crashing waves.
