The Ten US Cities With Less Than Ten Days Of Cash On Hand

As the Detroit bankruptcy hearing heats up following news that the city's unsecured creditors, among them pensioners, are set to recover pennies on the dollar, 16 to be precise, the question of which are the next cities to follow in the footsteps of bankrupt Motown, becomes relevant once again. 

Courtesy of the WSJ, and the second part of its series on "U.S. Cities Grapple With Finances", here is a list of the US cities that when push comes to shove metaphorically, and when the money runs out literally, will have no choice but to knock on the door of the local regional bankruptcy court and submit that long-prepared bankruptcy petition. Specifically, here are the cities that have 10 days or less in cash on hand available. Because, unless one is the Fed, cash and lack thereof is all that matters.

The list below ranks the top 10 cities in terms of days cash on hand. Needless to say, a city with a low number in this category (such as 0.0) may have trouble paying bills, bribes, lap dances and other core municipal outlays.

Shifting away from the stock, and looking at the flow, as Detroit showed the world the very hard way, cities mired in pension costs will ultimately default and lead to massive haircuts to the retirees. The following 10 cities have the greatest percentage of pension costs as a percentage of the city's general fund.

Of course, cash on hand while perhaps the most important factor, especially if a city becomes a net cash burner, is hardly the only indicator to keep an eye on. Additional consideration must be given to amount of reserves, or the ratio of a city's total fund balance to expenditures, because if this is negative it means the city spends more than is available.

Another relevant factor: taxable real estate per capita - the lower the number here, the weaker the real-estate market, which also means the lower the city's overall wealth and its ability to raise property-tax revenue.

Debt interest costs may not be a factor under the Fed's centrally-planned ZIRP world, but when rates once again go up, there will be blood. The following 10 cities have the highest amount of debt per capita: it may not be a problem now, but it will be sooner or later.

Last but not least is the most subjective indicator, yet perhaps the most forward looking one: population growth. Because if anyone knows the reality behind a city's numbers, it is the people who live there. 

If people see no long-term opportunities they move somewhere else - simple as that. And the less population a city has, as anyone who has played the SimCity series knows, the less property, income and sales tax can be collected, and the more costs have to be squeezed, resulting in the dreaded evil "austerity" and, ultimately, default.

Here comes the painful truth after 2 years of Fukushima

Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) must give a fuller account of the Fukushima disaster and address its “institutionalised lying” before it can expect to restart another nuclear station, the world’s largest, said a local government official who holds an effective veto over the utility’s revival plan.

“If they don’t do what needs to be done, if they keep skimping on costs and manipulating information, they can never be trusted,” Niigata Gov Hirohiko Izumida told Reuters in an interview.

Izumida must approve the embattled utility’s plans to restart the reactors at Kashiwazaki Kariwa, the world’s biggest nuclear complex on the Japan Sea coast.

A former economy and trade ministry bureaucrat who has emerged as a leading critic of TEPCO, Izumida said he would launch his own commission to investigate the causes and handling of the Fukushima crisis and whether strengthened regulatory safeguards were sufficient to prevent a similar disaster.

Izumida, 51, declined to provide a timetable for completing that review - a process that could force the utility to scrap or abandon one of the key assumptions behind its turnaround plan.

“If Tokyo Electric doesn’t cooperate closely with the prefecture nothing will be solved,” he said.

“Unless we start we won’t know,” he added when asked how long his review could take. “If they cooperate with us, we will be able to proceed smoothly. If not, we won’t.”

Even if Japan’s nuclear safety regulators approve TEPCO’s restart plans for its Niigata reactors, Izumida can effectively block it because of the utility’s need to win backing from local officials. That gives Izumida, a political independent, a platform for calling for a wider reform of Asia’s largest listed electricity utility, which provides power to 29 million homes and businesses in and around Tokyo.

Izumida urged Japan’s government to strip TEPCO of responsibility for decommissioning the wrecked Fukushima reactors, and consider putting it through a taxpayer-funded bankruptcy similar to the process used to restructure Japan Airlines.

Without that kind of sweeping restructuring, Izumida said, TEPCO could be left without the resources needed to ensure the safety of its remaining nuclear plants.

In its current form, the utility threatens to be distracted by how to fund the dismantling of the Fukushima reactors over the next 30 years and the more immediate problem of containing contaminated water at the Fukushima site, Izumida said.

“Unless we create a situation where 80-90% of their thinking is devoted to nuclear safety, I don’t think we can say they have prioritized safety,” he said.

System Reset 2014-2015

Resets occur when the price of everything that has been repressed, manipulated or obscured is repriced.

The global financial system will reset in 2014-2015, regardless of official pronouncements and financial media propaganda hyping the "recovery." Despite the wide spectrum of forecasts (from rosy to stormy), nobody knows precisely what will transpire in 2014-2015, so we must remain circumspect about any and all predictions-- especially our own.

Even as we are mindful of the risks of a forecast being wrong (and the righteous humility that befits any analysis), it seems increasingly self-evident that financial systems around the world are reaching extremes that generally presage violent resets to new equilibria--typically at much lower levels of complexity and energy consumption.

John Michael Greer has described the process of descending stair-step resets (my description, not his) as catabolic collapse. The system resets at a lower level and maintains the new equilibrium for some time before the next crisis/system failure triggers another reset.

There is much systems-analysis intelligence in Greer's concept: systems without interactive feedbacks may collapse suddenly in a heap, but more complex systems tend to stair-step down in a series of resets to lower levels of consumption and complexity--for example, the Roman Empire, which reset many times before reaching the near-collapse level of phantom legions, full-strength on official documents, defending phantom borders.

In the present, we can expect the overly costly, complex, inefficient, fraud-riddled U.S. sickcare (i.e. "healthcare") system to reset as providers (i.e. doctors and physicians' groups) opt out of ObamaCare, Medicare and Medicaid; like the phantom armies defending phantom borders of the crumbling Empire, the vast, centralized empire of sickcare will remain officially at full strength, but few will be able to find caregivers willing to provide care within the systems.

Just as much of the collateral supporting the stock, bond and housing bubbles is phantom, many other centralized systems will reset to phantom status. As local and state governments' revenues are increasingly diverted to fund public union employees' sickcare and pension benefits, the services provided by government will decline as the number of retirees swells and the number of government employees actually filling potholes, etc. drops.

Local government will offer services that are increasingly phantom, as stagnating tax revenues fund benefits for retirees rather than current services. On paper, cities will remain responsible for filling potholes, but in the real world, the potholes will go unfilled. In response, cities will ask taxpayers to approve bonds that cost triple the price of pay-as-you-go pothole filling, as a way to dodge the inevitable conflict between government retirees benefits and taxpayers burdened with decaying streets, schools, etc. and ever-higher taxes.

As for phantom collateral--the real value of the collateral will be undiscovered until people start selling assets in earnest. As long as everyone is buying, the phantom nature of the collateral is masked; it's only when everyone tries to get their money out of asset bubbles is the actual value of the underlying collateral discovered.

When assets go bidless, i.e. there are no buyers at any price, the phantom nature of the supposedly solid collateral is revealed. Price discovery is one way of describing reset; transparent pricing of risk is another way of saying the same thing.

When risk has been mispriced via state guarantees, fraud, willful obfuscation, complexity fortresses, etc., then the repricing of risk also resets the system.

Resets occur when the price of everything that has been repressed, manipulated or obscured is repriced. The greater the manipulation and financial repression, the more violent the reset. What been manipulated, obscured or repressed? Virtually everything: risk, credit, assets, labor, currency, you name it. Everything that has been manipulated by central banks and central states will be repriced.

Trust is difficult to price. Every reset erodes trust in the capacity of the centralized status quo to manipulate/repress price to its liking. Once trust in the system is lost, it cannot be purchased at any cost.

Impending US Martial Law

In the early morning hours of October 29, 2013, I was interviewed by Kate Zickel from The Voice of Russia radio show, formerly Radio Moscow. The Russians wanted to know why I believe that the United States was on the verge of martial law and I feel compelled to say that the host seemed extremely uncomfortable with the content of my presentation. I was told we would have 10 minutes for the interview. This story cannot be told in 10 minutes so I prepared attention grabbing bullet points in an attempt to convey why I believe martial law does not lie far off in our future. As a radio guest, I usually adopt a calm demeanor and attempt to present hard data which allows the listeners to make up their mind. I am congenial and polite because I would like to be invited back at a future date. In this instance, I did not have that goal.

I have done enough interviews with the main stream media outlets to know when I am venturing into enemy territory. However, in this instance, I decided to be a little more aggressive, not quite to the level of Alex Jones/Piers Morgan gun control debate on CNN, but in the same spirit. The Russian controlled media or the American controlled media, there is virtually no difference. I almost felt sorry for the Russian host as she was both overwhelmed by my material and she was extremely uncomfortable in my approach. Here is a synopsis of what I was able to convey in a 10 minute interview.

The Catalyst for Martial Law

Barring a false flag event, US martial law will have a trigger event, which will lead to martial law, that will be financial and it will naturally occur as we are already on a collision course with destiny.

There are three numbers that every American should be paying attention to and they are (1) the national deficit ($17 trillion dollars), (2) the unfunded liabilities debt ($238 trillion dollars), and (3) the derivatives/futures debt (one quadrillion dollars which is 16 times the  entire wealth of the planet.

The net result of these staggering numbers can only end one way, with a financial collapse, a bank holiday, rioting in the streets and the full roll out of martial law.

Most, if not all revolutions occur in three stages and this formed the focus of my interview content.

Stage One

Stage one of martial law consists of the gradual roll-out of government controls over citizen liberties. Travel is restricted through inland border checkpoints and travel restrictions carry over into Stage two. The internal DHS VIPR programs which randomly search citizens at public events and on the highways  are now in place. Citizens are conditioned by the TSA that they do not control or own their bodies as the flying public is molested by the TSA everyday in our nation’s airports in an extreme violation of our citizens Fourth Amendment rights. Stage one also begins to create an enemies list and we have already seen this in the MIAC report in which Christians, Ron Paul supporters, Second Amendment supporters, Libertarians and Constitutionalists have been branded as domestic terrorists. The enemies list has been created and will be acted upon at a future date. In Stage one, the government elevates itself above any pretense of constitutional liberties.

In Stage one, the legal mechanisms are put into place which will allow for a more orderly transition to martial law. In the United States there are two distinct provisions which will firmly place the United States under martial law. On December 31, 2011, while the country was preparing to celebrate, Congress passed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The NDAA permits the government to arrest anyone without the due process of law and detain them indefinitely without any legal representative.

Although I did not have the time to tell the Russians about Eric Holder and Jeh Johnson’s legal opinions which legitimize unconstitutional arrests but also sanctioned the unwarranted executions of American citizens. Referring to Attorney General’s legal opinion, Eric Holder has stated that Obama can order the execution of Americans. This legal opinion was based upon a legal brief prepared by newly nominated DHS director, Jeh Johnson, when as senior legal counsel to the Pentagon, he had previously issued the same legal opinion.

The NDAA will allow the administration the legal right to secretly remove any burgeoning leadership of citizen opposition forces. The second provision which will allow this country to quickly transition to martial law is Executive Order (EO) 13603 which allows the President to take control over any resource, property and even human labor within the United States. This EO gives the President unlimited authority including the ability to initiate a civilian draft as well as a military draft. In short, this spells the potential enslavement of the American people. The Russian host was uncomfortable with my recitation of these two draconian dictates.  

America has been firmly under Stage one martial law governance since the events of 9/11.

Stage Two

In Stage two, martial law implementation becomes obvious to all citizens except for the ones who invoke cognitive dissonance as a psychological coping mechanism. Stage two is marked by increasing restrictions on travel, the loss of free speech and the right to assemble to air grievances against the government. Stage two also witnesses some level of pushback by the citizens through various forms of civil disobedience.

A hallmark sign that the imposition of martial law is imminent and is tied to the fact that DHS is moving to forcibly restrict travel. Take a look at the following work order I obtained from DHS last year.  

Press release date: April 4, 2012

Owner: Department of Homeland Security

Project Description:

Shelters Direct provided the Department of Homeland Security with this 4×13 Steel UL 752 Level 3 Bullet Resistant Booth.

This guard building features a standing seam hip roof, a thru-wall HVAC unit, (2) UL 752 BR Level 3 sliding doors, UL 752 Bullet Resistant Level 3 glass and a Low]E coating.

DHS bullet proof checkpoint. “Papers Please”

The TSA “grope granny” approach to airline security greatly intensifies in this stage. The Russian host posited the view that airline security is a normal part of life and a necessary part of airline security. Having our genitals groped by pot-bellied perverts in blue uniforms is a normal part of life? Control of the media is the same regardless of the country of origin.  

In Stage two, the free internet as we know it, will disappear. Subsequently, the truthful, alternative media will disappear as well. Stage two is also characterized by the total loss of due process of law with regard to detainment, imprisonment or worse. This stage is also marked by limiting participation of members of the society who have been previously identified as enemies of the state (i.e. MIAC Report). This would include the ability to hold certain kinds of employment, a special designation on a form of national ID, the imposition of restrictions on who can marry, where one can live, etc.

Stage two also witnesses the total loss of private property and free will in terms of choice of domicile (i.e. Agenda 21), choice of employment and exercising any form of political choice. In short, Stage two is characterized by creating a political caste system in which the legal rights of certain groups are set in place (i.e. NDAA, Executive Order 13603, etc). The MERS mortgage fraud inspired thievery of legitimate home titles and the MF Global theft of privately secured investment accounts are cases in point. Stage two is often preceded by a false flag attack (e.g. burning of the Reichstag) designed to create a perceived enemy which serves as the excuse for the encroachment of  “necessary” tyranny in a society in which “we must trade our liberty for security” approach to governance.

The interview time frame did not permit me to speak to Stage two and beginning of civil disobedience. If I would have had another few moments, I would have spoken about how the veterans defied the shutdown of the monuments during the government shutdown. I would have also detailed how the good people of Northern California and Southern Oregon (i.e. the proposed State of Jefferson) want to withdraw from their respective states so they can better counter federal abuses. There is also a similar movement in Eastern Colorado that I would have spoken about. We will remember these events as the Lexington and Concord of the American resistance movement.

Stage Three

Stage three martial law has given history some of its darkest days. Warrantless detentions become common place in which suspected political dissidents are removed from society, usually in the middle of the night. The Russians should be able to identify with this practice. In modern terminology, these would be referred to as the “Red list” tagged citizens who are detained and normally executed. These include outspoken preachers, outspoken talk show hosts, people who have any kind of history of civil disobedience. The speaks directly to the type of abuses that Ed Snowden has warned America about. Many of us in the alternative media have sources which speaks to the fact that the massive NSA surveillance grid has created a weighted enemies list and every American has been assigned what is euphemistically referred to as a threat matrix score. These scores are fluid and change as one’s demonstrated “loyalties” happen to change.

Conclusion

It is an eerie feeling to experience the corporate controlled media, Russian style. The clear agenda of the interview was to cast doubt on the claims being made that martial law is in our future. I told the host that to some degree, we have been under soft martial law since 9/11.

The interview was to be scheduled to air later on the same day as the pre-recorded session. I was told that the interview will go back to “Russian headquarters”, processed and then distributed widely in 39 countries from which the Voice of Russia broadcasts.

It would not entirely surprise me if the Russians scrubbed the interview because I did not permit the host to control the narrative. My close friends and family asked me why I did the interview with the main media outlet for  Russian government? No, I am not sympathetic to the Russian worldview, I am an American first and I don’t trust the Russian government any further than I can throw them. I may strongly object to the policies of the bankers who have hijacked my government, but I am a loyal American, first and foremost, and am committed to the ideals of the Constitution. I did the interview for one simple reason. I am trying to convey the message that we are all one humanity and we have the same enemies.

Most people of the world are good, loving people. To move up the ladder in the government power structure requires a ruthless, psychopathic approach. This is why we see such inhumane decisions emanating from governments around the world. The people who aspire to this level of power are generally mentally ill psychopaths. Consequently, I want the citizens in 39 countries who will hear my story to identify with the fact that we, as the people of the world, have a lot in common with each other, regardless of national origin. I want foreign citizens, as well as American citizens to come to realize that the enemy of humanity are the ruthless bankers who control the governments of the world. I want people to know that we are all God’s children and, as such, we should never allow ourselves to be manipulated to take up arms against each other. I am on a mission to convey these ideals and that is why I spoke with the Russians media.   

The Common Sense Show

How Long, O Lord? How Long?

My soul is grieved. I can think of nothing more tragic, or more evil than to observe adults purposely set upon destroying the innocence of youth. I know that all humanity is born with a sinful nature, but the countenance of youth that has not yet known deep defilement is precious. To see innocence, trust, and unblemished joy in the face of a child is one of the most precious sights to behold in this present creation. A righteous person would do all they can to preserve this innocence, to preserve the light in the eyes of children and youth. I can think of nothing more noble or worthy than to direct another human beings feet down a path of righteousness and truth and to spare them the debasement of a life given over to wicked pursuits that darken the soul.

James 5:19-20
My brethren, if any among you strays from the truth, and one turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death, and will cover a multitude of sins.

In Matthew’s gospel we read:

Matthew 18:1-7
At that time the disciples came to Yahshua, saying, "Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" And He called a child to Himself and set him before them, and said, “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever then humbles himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one such child in My name receives Me; but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it is better for him that a heavy millstone be hung around his neck, and that he be drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe to the world because of its stumbling blocks! For it is inevitable that stumbling blocks come; but woe to that man through whom the stumbling block comes!”



Today I am grieved because I realize with great clarity that I dwell among a people who despise the innocence of youth. The very government of the nation in which Yahweh has chosen for me to reside is following a systematic plan to corrupt, defile, pervert, and destroy the youth of the nation. The government is truly Satanic, intent only on killing (abortion), stealing (freedoms and innocence), and destroying (all that is virtuous and worthy of praise). We have a President who has championed homosexuality, defiling even the sacredness of marriage that was established by Yahweh to be a faithful union between a man and woman.

The youth of the nation are being indoctrinated with a twisted and deviant view of sexuality through the government schools. The consummation of physical union has been debased to nothing more than a parlor game, a momentary and meaningless act of physical pleasure. The genders are being deliberately confused so that males are having sex with males, and females with females. All the while the souls of those who participate in such things are growing darker. Innocence is shattered. Conscience is polluted. Shame is cast off only as it is replaced by pride and rebellion.

Last night I read about a new film that is being promoted by those who hate all that is pure and holy. The movie is titled Blue is the Warmest Color. It is a coming of age tale of a 15 year old girl who is seduced into a lesbian relationship by an older, college age art major. The movie is 3 hours long and features 15 minutes of graphic sexual intercourse between two young women. It has been rated NC-17 by the MPAA, the equivalent of what used to be an X rated movie.

Despite the deviant theme of this movie, its extreme obscenity, and the fact that it portrays an under age character engaged in prolonged scenes of sexual intercourse, one theater in New York’s Greenwich Village has stated that they will admit any High School age boy or girl who wants to see it who has the money for the ticket.



Variety magazine reports:

IFC Center will ignore MPAA's 'voluntary' rating
Allegra Tepper

Those sex scenes in Abdellatif Kechiche’s three-hour long NC-17 lesbian drama “Blue Is the Warmest Color” may be polarizing the talent, but at least in cosmopolitan New York, high schoolers under 17 will be admitted to see the film.

The IFC Center in Greenwich Village — which falls under the same IFC ownership as distributor Sundance Selects — has said it will not turn away teen-aged viewers, the New York Times A.O. Scott reported. Scott also said that his own 14-year old daughter has seen the film twice.

In a statement, John Vanco, senior veep and general manager of the IFC Center, said that “high school age patrons” would be admitted.

“This is not a movie for young children, but it is our judgment that it is not inappropriate for mature, inquiring teenagers who are looking ahead to the emotional challenges and opportunities that adulthood holds,” Vanco said.

The theater added on Thursday: “The MPAA rating is a voluntary guideline that we as a theater are not obligated to enforce. In this case we feel it is unnecessarily restrictive and we will indeed admit high school age patrons to screenings of this perceptive and moving film at the IFC Center.”

With roughly 15 minutes devoted to simulated sex between Adele Exarchopoulos and Lea Seydoux, no one has questioned whether the rating was deserved.

In another article on this movie, one of the female actors, Lea Seydoux, bitterly criticized the movie’s director Abdellatif Kechiche. Variety reports:

Kechiche writes that, after Seydoux cried in his arms in Cannes for letting her have such a noble role, she has turned on him and is risking demolishing the reputation of the film. Calling Seydoux a “spoiled child,” he accuses her of “manipulation of the worst kind” for having accused him of being a “sadistic and perverse manipulator who forced two young actresses to perform non-stop nude sex scenes for 10 days” and for “psychologically humiliating and raping them to achieve what is seen on screen.”
[Source: http://variety.com/2013/film/news/blue-is-the-warmest-color-helmer-slams-star-as-feud-escalates-1200755257/]

Whatever innocence these two young women had before this film is now lost. After ten days of non-stop nude sex scenes performed in front of a motion picture crew, now to be broadcast publicly to the world, there is no purity or innocence left to them. Yet the greater damage will be done to the tens of thousands of young boys and girls who go view this movie and are consequently led into homosexual relationships. The innocence of youth will be thoroughly shattered.

I am grieved that I live in a country where the powers that be applaud such degradation and corruption of the nation’s youth. I am not unaware of the schemes of the enemy. It is no coincidence that in recent news there was a story of an 18 year old High School student in Florida who enticed a 14 year old girl into a lesbian relationship with her. (Although numerous articles say the girl is 15, she was 14 when the relationship began.)

The younger girl’s parents were justifiably upset to learn that an older student was engaging in lesbian sex acts with their daughter. The media, however, is clearly supportive of the older girl whose mother stated:

“The (assistant) state attorney, Brian Workman needs to use taxpayers money to prosecute REAL criminals, not a high school student who has never been in trouble a day in her young life, all because she had a mutual consenting relationship with someone who has bigoted parents.”
[Source: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/florida-student-18-criminally-charged-lesbian-relationship-article-1.1348422]

Notice the words “mutual consenting relationship.” There is now a push under way nationally to decriminalize sexual relationships with minors. The homosexual lobby having won the day in their battle to legitimize all forms of deviant sexual behavior between “consenting adults,” has now set their sites on the next battleground, which is to legitimize all forms of sexual behavior that is “consensual.” Having normalized homosexuality, the next step in Satan’s agenda is to normalize pedophilia.



The above picture is of Kaitlyn Hunt, the older girl in this news story, who has been charged with two counts of lewd and lascivious behavior for engaging a minor in sexual acts. Columnist Robert Stacy Moran has spoken truth in an article posted online.

#FreeKate? Movement to Normalize Pedophilia Finds Its Poster Girl.

Using the slogan “Stop the Hate, Free Kate” (the Twitter hashtag is #FreeKate) this social-media campaign has attracted the support of liberals including Chris Hayes of MSNBC, Daily Kos, Think Progress and the gay-rights group Equality Florida. Undoubtedly, part of the appeal of the case is that Hunt is a petite attractive green-eyed blonde. One critic wondered on Twitter how long activists have “been waiting for a properly photogenic poster child of the correct gender to come along?”

Portraying Hunt as the victim of prejudice, her supporters claim she was only prosecuted because she is homosexual and because the parents of the unnamed 14-year-old are “bigoted religious zealots,” as Hunt’s mother said in a poorly written Facebook post. The apparent public-relations strategy was described by Matthew Philbin of Newsbusters: “If you can play the gay card, you immediately trigger knee-jerk support from the liberal media and homosexual activists anxious to topple any and all rules regarding sex...”

The ACLU statement parrots the arguments of all the other “Free Kate” crusaders who emphasize that the sex between Hunt and the 14-year-old was consensual, and who are apparently indifferent (or even openly hostile) to the right of parents to safeguard their minor children against sexual exploitation. The liberal Daily Kos blog goes so far as to proclaim that officials are “prosecuting an 18-year-old for being in love.”

http://www.wnd.com/2013/10/lefts-new-crusade-adult-kid-sex/

This morning as I awakened, I considered Lot dwelling in Sodom. Peter tells us that Lot’s righteous soul was “oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men.” All around me I see unprincipled men and women who are ever living for the pleasure of the moment. There is no fear of God before their eyes. They do not tremble as they work to suborn and corrupt the last of America’s innocence by leading the children of the nation into debauchery. I grieve for the 14 year old girl who has been corrupted. What innocence she once had is now lost. The light in her eyes has surely dimmed. Her conscience has been defiled and her soul darkened as she has rebelled against her parents and against God.

America is looking more like Sodom every day. This should cause us to pay particular attention to the apostle Peter’s words regarding that wicked city.

II Peter 2:4-10
For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly thereafter; and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men (for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented day after day with their lawless deeds), then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment, and especially those who indulge the flesh in its corrupt desires and despise authority.

Is your soul vexed and oppressed by the increase of wickedness, by the corruption of the youth of America? Are you grieved that men and women in high positions are implementing laws and policies that will further increase the wickedness of the nation? Do you sigh and groan over the perversion of justice and the transgressions you see taking place every day? My soul cries out, “How long, O Lord? How long will you let darkness increase? How long will you permit children to become the prey of the unprincipled and sensual who would turn their feet to the way of evil?”

Ezekiel 9:4-10
And Yahweh said to him, "Go through the midst of the city, even through the midst of Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations which are being committed in its midst." But to the others He said in my hearing, "Go through the city after him and strike; do not let your eye have pity, and do not spare. Utterly slay old men, young men, maidens, little children, and women, but do not touch any man on whom is the mark; and you shall start from My sanctuary." So they started with the elders who were before the temple. And He said to them, "Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!" Thus they went out and struck down the people in the city. Then it came about as they were striking and I alone was left, that I fell on my face and cried out saying, "Alas, Yahweh God! Art Thou destroying the whole remnant of Israel by pouring out Thy wrath on Jerusalem?" Then He said to me, "The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is very, very great, and the land is filled with blood, and the city is full of perversion; for they say, 'Yahweh has forsaken the land, and Yahweh does not see!' But as for Me, My eye will have no pity nor shall I spare, but I shall bring their conduct upon their heads."

America is a land defiled. God does see. His judgments will not tarry.

Come quickly Lord Yahshua!

CHECKPOINT COPS POINT GUNS AT MOTORISTS

Four law-enforcement officers were wounded Friday in a suburb of Sacramento, Calif., during an attempt to take a wanted gang member into custody.

The shooting occurred in Roseville, a suburb about 20 miles northeast of the state capital.

Helicopters circled overhead and armored vehicles and other police cars flocked to the area following an initial report that a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent had been shot.

A sporadic gun battle lasted into the night and the commotion snarled traffic for hours. Police responded by setting up a checkpoint and pointing guns at motorists, as this Associated Press photo shows.



The photo, (credited to AP Photo/The Sacramento Bee, Randall Benton) is captioned, “A California Highway Patrol officer and another emergency responder stop a vehicle at a checkpoint near the neighborhood where a federal immigration officer was shot and three local police officers were wounded during a violent confrontation with a suspect in the Sacramento suburb of Roseville on Friday, Oct. 25, 2013.”

The suspect, 32-year-old gang member Samuel Nathan Duran, eventually surrendered after leaving a nearby house in which he had been holed up.

During the Boston Marathon-bombings manhunt earlier this year, heavily armed police officers in Watertown, Mass., went door-to-door without search warrants terrorizing families at gunpoint and ransacking homes.

Former U.S. Rep. and presidential candidate Ron Paul later observed the manhunt was more frightening than the attack itself, saying it resembled “scenes from a military coup in a far off Banana Republic.”

Similarly, during the manhunt for Christopher Dorner, the ex-LAPD officer whose killing rampage that left four people dead and three others wounded, police shot and injured two innocent women delivering newspapers in a truck that “resembled” Dorner’s vehicle.

“I feel scared to go out at night. I am scared that I will get shot by police,” victim Margie Carranza later told NBC4.

US claims North Korea in the process of upgrading missile launch site

North Korea has undertaken major construction work at its main missile launch site, possibly to cater to larger and more mobile weapons, a US think-tank said on Tuesday.

Satellite images taken earlier this month suggest construction of a second flat mobile launch pad at the Sohae missile site, the US-Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins University posted on its 38 North website.

Work has also been carried out on Sohae's main launch pad, "possibly to upgrade that facility to handle future larger rockets," the post said.

The pad was used for the launch in December of the North's Unha-3 carrier, which successfully placed a satellite in orbit.

The launch was condemned by most in the international community as a disguised ballistic missile test that violated UN sanctions on Pyongyang.

North Korea insisted it was a purely scientific mission and vowed to push ahead with similar launches in the future.

"Activities related to the upgrading of the Unha launch pad may be completed soon, allowing Pyongyang to proceed with another space launch should it decide to do so," the institute said.

North Korea is currently pushing for a resumption of six-party talks on its nuclear programme, but the United States says it must first demonstrate a commitment to denuclearisation.

Another long-range rocket launch would be taken as a step in the opposite direction and almost certainly result in fresh sanctions.

Last week, the US-Korea Institute said satellite images showed North Korea had built two tunnel entrances at its nuclear test site in a sign it plans more detonations.

FEMA Preparing Military For Gun Confiscations & Martial Law

DNA Downloaded from the Internet? Leading Geneticist Says Yes!

The digitizing of DNA in order to transform naturally evolving life forms into programmable computer code has been an ongoing mission of the elite. In 2010, the White House gave the all-clear to this type of research in the name of "clean energy, pollution control and medicine," which included the ability to "manipulate DNA of organisms to forge new life forms."

Craig Venter and his J. Craig Venter Institute is at the top of the pyramid which is directing this research. As far back as 2003, a BBC article titled "Warning on Gene 'ID Cards'" cited Craig Venter as a leading scientist in gene mapping who, at the time, was offering the "very rich" a chance to buy their gene map for $710,000. This threatens to set up a division of gene class where elites would have access to potentially life-saving information, while the underclass could be discriminated against. The short above-linked article concludes with an even more critical warning by Dr. Helen Wallace of GeneWatch that, "What we could end up with is a massive DNA database by the back door." (Source)

This warning clearly went unheeded as DNA database news comes out almost daily in 2013. Now Craig Venter has revealed his latest concept: "a gadget that could teletransport medicine and vaccines into our homes or to colonists in space."

Venter aims to bring gene mapping and manipulation into the homes of everyone who is connected to the Internet:

It is a box attached to a computer that would receive DNA sequences over the internet to synthesise proteins, viruses and even living cells.
It could, for example, fill a prescription for insulin, provide flu vaccine during a pandemic or even produce phage viruses targeted to fight antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

On the more fanciful side, Venter also imagines the ability to transport the information to colonists on Mars, but even that apparently can't be completely brushed aside. As he clearly states, "'This isn't a fantasy look at the future. We are doing the future."

The prototype is called a Digital Biological Converter; it's a concept he expounds upon in his new book Life at the Speed of Light: From the Double Helix to the Dawn of Digital Life. Venter's central tenet is that all life is nothing more than a software program. This is the same assertion made by Transhumanists such as Ray Kurzweil who already feels we are heading toward Human Body 2.0as we begin to receive upgrades via nanobots that can deliver drugs to specific cells and initiate the overwriting process.

The idea of a genetic overwrite also appeared recently when Yale and Harvard researchers announced their goal to re-code the genome. Now that they have decoded it, the next step can commence. The researchers reported:

“It’s expanding the chemical repertoire,” said Farren Isaacs, assistant professor of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology at Yale University. “By making these fundamental changes to the code, you can create organisms that are safer, . . . more useful for the biotechnology industry, and organisms with alternate genetic codes are actually resistant to viruses.”
On Thursday in the journal Science, Isaacs and George Church, a biologist at Harvard Medical School, reported in a pair of papers on new efforts to advance a technique developed a few years ago that enables massive editing of the genome.

In a second paper, the researchers were able to show the scope of genetic words they could tweak, not limiting themselves to a single sequence of three letters. 

There have been a number of methods pioneered over the past few years to edit the genomes of organisms, giving biologists a large tool kit. Isaacs and Church used a technique that makes targeted changes to DNA and also takes advantage of the process of evolution to select the strains of altered bacteria that are most viable. 

“There are different ways to skin the cat,” Isaacs said. “It’s pretty exciting right now — we’re suddenly in the past few years seeing this influx of new types of technologies that are allowing us to perform unprecedented changes to genomes, and that’s really exciting and powerful.” (Source) 

This might indeed sound promising, until we recall another piece of recent news that the military is also looking to genetically engineer humans; they suggest to add a 47th chromosome:

So DARPA and its team of associated scientists want to introduce an entirely new 47th chromosome into human genetics as a vector platform for inserting bio-alterations and wholesale genetic “improvements” into our DNA.
The agency hopes that development of a new chromosome will allow a solution to the limitations of current “state-of-the-art” gene transfer technologies (including plasmids, adenovirus-, lentivirus-, and retrovirus-vectors, cDNA, and minigene constructs). The proposal explains that existing approaches must be improved due to known drawbacks in the scientists’ failure to control their results, causing a few minor major problems: 

"These include random DNA insertion into the host genome, variation in stable integration sites between cell lines, variation in the copy number and expression level of DNA that is delivered, limitations on the number and size of DNA constructs that can be delivered, and immunological responses to foreign DNA."
Yet these techniques are already in use? How reassuring. (Source)
And isn't it reassuring that DARPA is also supporting Venter's new prototype? The connection between DARPA and mad science has been long established and always needs to raise our level of concern and limit our susceptibility to their promises of virus eradication and cures for cancer. 

Meanwhile, the digitizing of anything is playing out in revelation after revelation of security issues and the ability to hack any and all digital systems. Why would Venter's DNA box on your computer be any different? In fact, the possible misuse by Venter and crew became clear in 2006 when collaboration between the J. Craig Venter Institute and Google resulted in a ZDNet article titledGoogle Accused of Bio-Piracy. Plans were revealed to "create a searchable online database of all the genes on the planet." The source of this story came from a Pulitzer Prize winner, David Vise, but to this day it seems that neither the J. Craig Venter Institute, nor Google have acknowledged any ongoing partnership.

The Institute announced in May 2010 that it finally had created the first self-replicating, synthetic bacterial cell, dubbed Synthia by the media. Most people probably concluded that this was a rather innocuous, self-promoting announcement designed to receive funding. However, if one looks deeper into this press release, one should notice the words "synthetic genome." This is an admission that goes beyond simply altering an existing life form, as the Institute asserts, but illustrates the ability to replicate the entirety of an organism's hereditary information.

The assertions that the J. Craig Venter Institute has found the "software of life" and can rewrite it is clearly being taken seriously at a time when revelations about how computing, medicine, technology, and the police state are converging on an almost daily basis.

In the case of Synthia, one goal was "faster vaccine production." And, here again, we see the interest in vaccine delivery systems for Venter's new prototype:


The current prototype can produce only DNA, not proteins or living cells, but even that could be enough to make the device practical. Some vaccines are made using just DNA molecules, points out Venter. "If there is a pandemic, everyone around you is dying and you cannot go outdoors, you can download the vaccine in a couple of seconds from the internet," he says. That digital file would allow DBCs in homes, hospitals and companies to "just spit out a loaded syringe". His researchers believe their current prototype is already capable of producing DNA precisely enough that it could be used as a vaccine.However, as self-assured (many have said maniacally arrogant) Craig Venter is about the ability of full re-writes and upgrades of the human genome via the Internet, there is one area of slight doubt which may hold the clue to humanity retaining its identity and freedom: consciousness. 

Although Venter works on single cells, he says he believes it holds true for even the most complex organisms. "I can't explain consciousness yet, but like anything else it will be explainable at the molecular level, the cellular level and therefore the DNA coding level."This is firstly an admission that should quiet anyone who denies that this type of research intends to be merged with what is simultaneously being pursued in the area of brain mapping (mind control).

But is it just wishful thinking from the power mad?

Jon Rappoport has written extensively about the how the reductionist model is doomed to fail when encountering the boundless:

The titanic complexity of brain activity is always changing, moment to moment. So even a perfect snapshot, frozen in time—which scientists have no idea how to execute—means almost nothing in the next split-second. The adage about never stepping the same river twice applies perfectly to the brain. (Source)So perhaps we won't lose our minds, even if our bodies are incrementally taken from us. Meanwhile, we should not ignore all of the stresses upon our DNA that we are encountering, especially in the area of genetically modified food. As this plays out, we should be on alert for any solutions coming from the halls of establishment science who suggest easy ways to correct that damage. We must remember the documented history of discriminatory programs and depopulationinitiatives that tend to override the sales pitch of the "public good."

The new breed of mad scientist has more access than ever before to our information and our health. As these two areas continue to merge, our blood and life force is being targeted by those who long ago distanced themselves from the concerns of the average man and woman. This doesn't bode well for our health or our sanity, unless we can become informed enough to steer this powerful technology away from our biggest threat.
