Former Public Security Minister Fernando Berrocal announced last week that he would run for president in 2010, deepening fissures within the government’s National Liberation Party (PLN).
Berrocal resigned under pressure in March after he said the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) have ties to Costa Rican politicians, a statement that angered President Oscar Arias.
Some 20 months remain until the 2010 presidential elections, but would-be candidates already crowd PLN’s field. Arias appears to support Vice President Laura Chinchilla, who has not yet announced her candidacy.
Other aspirants include San José Mayor Johnny Araya and prodigal son Antonio Álvarez, who rejoined PLN in January after spending 39 months with the Union for Change Party (UPC).

Zeenews BureauWashington: Three Indian-origin scientists are part of a team that has for the first time created a synthetic cell, controlled by man-made genetic instructions, which can also reproduce itself. The 24-member team included Sanjay Vashee, Radha Krishnakumar and Prashanth P. Parmar. "This is the first synthetic cell that`s been made," said lead researcher Craig Venter, unveiling the culmination of 15 years of research.
But critics warned that he and his team were opening up a Pandora`s Box by paving the way towards building artificial organisms that are still not properly understood. In an interview with the BBC, Venter defended himself from accusations that he was "playing God." "That`s a term that comes up every time there is a new medical or scientific breakthrough associated with biology," he said. "It`s been a goal of humanity from the earlier stages to try and control nature... that`s how we got domesticated animals. "This is the next stage in our understanding, it is a baby step in our understanding of how life fundamentally works and maybe how we can get some new handles on trying to control these microbial systems to benefit humanity." The researchers synthesized the 1.08 million base pair genome of the bacterium Mycoplasma mycoides -- which commonly causes mastitis in goats -- created from four bottles of the chemicals which make up the components of DNA. They also added "watermarks" to the synthetic genome to distinguish it from a natural one. The watermarks included the names of 46 authors and scientists who worked on the project on the genome along with its own website address -- so that anyone who decodes it can send an email to the team. Three sets of quotations including "to live, to err, to fall, to triumph, to recreate life out of life" from Irish author James Joyce were also included. Venter told a press conference the team had started with a living cell, which had been transformed with the synthetic genome, adding the cell had gone through a "million steps of replication" and was now frozen in a freezer. "This is an important step we think, both scientifically and philosophically. It`s certainly changed my views of the definitions of life and how life works," he added in a statement. Ethical implications Throughout the research, the team had engaged in discussions about the ethical implications of their work, he stressed. But Canadian international technology watchdog ETC Group warned against further such research. The synthetic cell "is not a one-stop shop for all our societal woes," said the group`s director Pat Mooney. "It is much more likely to cause a whole new set of problems governments and society are ill-prepared to address." Venter`s team announced in 2008 that it had chemically synthesized a bacterial genome, but it was unable to activate that genome in a cell at that time. Now the team had managed to "boot up" the synthetic genome to create the first cell controlled by a synthetic genome. But Jim Thomas from the ETC Group warned: "Synthetic biology is a high-risk, profit-driven field, building organisms out of parts that are still poorly understood. "We know that lab-created life forms can escape, become biological weapons and that their use threatens existing natural biodiversity." Dismissing the danger of bio-terrorism, Venter added to the BBC: "The technology is not for sale, the cells are not for sale. We are trying to use this technology to advance vaccine protection, we are trying to use it to advance the basic understanding of cellular life."-Agencies inputs

The Cerro Blanco Project includes a 6,500 hectare land position in northern Chile approximately 130 km southeast of the coastal port city of Antofagasta, and in a similar geologic setting to Spence (BHP) and Sierra Gorda (KGHM & Sumitomo) copper mines.
The project targets partially outcropping porphyry and epithermal targets with post mineral gravel-covered (pampa) extensions. Work to date includes heli-borne magnetic survey, historical drilling and surface geochemical sampling. A significant magnetic anomaly partially underlays the Cerro Blanco hill and represents a magnetic intrusive center that is related to hydrothermal alteration seen at surface. Historical drilling has cut porphyry-style alteration; however alteration patterns are poorly understood to date. EMX believes this early-stage project has the components of a large porphyry copper system.
EMX acquired a 2% NSR on the Cerro Blanco property from Revelo Resources in 2020 (See EMX Press Release dated March 26, 2020).
Note: Nearby mines provide context for the project, but do not necessarily indicate similar styles of mineralization within the project.

“We must bear in mind, then, that there is nothing more difficult and dangerous, or more doubtful of success, than an attempt to introduce a new order of things in any state.” Niccolò Machiavelli, the Prince, p25
January 17th, 2017.
Coup Attempt Underway in US?
The inauguration of is only days away and while it is hoped that the people who have been trying to prevent and destroy the Trump Presidency before it begins will recognise that they have lost, and that they need to respect the wishes of the US people as expressed n the election, there are multiple powerful signs that a decision has been taken by certain elements to destroy the Trump Presidency one way or another because any rapprochement with Russia is completely unacceptable to the secret rulers they represent.
While Russia is not and does not want to be an enemy of the United States, and represents no threat to the people of the US, Russia is an implacable foe of the world domination project being run by the ruling Western oligarchs using the US military and government as a front.
That is the key reason for the manic and hysterical response to the Trump victory.
Because while it matters absolutely nothing to the people of the US that Russia annexed Crimea, this move and the Syrian operation were both completely unacceptable acts of disobedience from the point of view of the ruling cabal.
These operations brought to a sudden end the complete US-Western hegemony that the Western elite assumed would last forever following the collapse of the Soviet Union a quarter of a century ago.
In that time a very deep and long term commitment to this project was created within the Western elite and their minions. These people cannot let go of the dream of complete power on the planet regardless of the consequences and would prefer to fight a war against Russia, than accept the reality that the days of the lone hyper power are over.
The Truth Before the Lies.
Late on election night as the (for them) terrible news of a Trump victory sunk in and before the campaign of mega- lies had started, Ben Mankiewicz of the Young Turks stated the truth about influence and the election.
“With everybody on her side, with everybody trying to help her . Frickin even Republicans were coming out of the woodwork to try and help her. Everybody! Jay Z, Beyonce, Bruce Springsteen, everybody, every frickin television comedian…..and she still lost to this guy, what does that tell you?” (Source)
Mrs. Clinton received overwhelming support from the entire US and Western cultural elite but this support was not enough to counteract her weakness as a candidate and the difficulty of winning three consecutive terms in the White House, something that has happened only once in living memory when George H. Bush defeated Michael Dukakis in the 1988 election.
In the major US print media support for Clinton over Trump ran at a ratio of around 25 to 1, with more than 500 outlets endorsing Clinton whilst around 25 supported Trump.
In the weeks after the election the faction in power engaged in a twin track policy of infiltration and sabotage. Great hope was placed in Mitt Romney being appointed Secretary of State and using the position to neuter any attempts by Trump at rapprochement with Russia or break from the foreign policy “blob” or the Deep State in any way.
Once it was announced that Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson was to be the nominee as Secretary of State, all hope of infiltration evaporated, this was the final straw.
The approach became one of pure sabotage, and in the past several weeks we have seen increasingly aggressive and desperate moves from the faction in power and their media outlets to delegitimise the election and claim that Russia manipulated the process on Trump’s behalf in what is clearly a coordinated and concerted attempt to destroy the Trump presidency before it begins.
Regardless of your opinion of Trump these efforts should be vehemently opposed for reasons Glenn Greenwald explains eloquently here:
After the evidence free and concocted “Intelligence reports” with their core evidence being “cause we said so” failed to achieve the objective, an MI6 dirt file was produced in all it’s wonder and glory.
Every word was a transparent lie, and the only thing that was exposed was that whilst the criminal faction who control the US were claiming that Russia influenced the election, it was actually their Cabal allies from British Intelligence fabricating dirt in a despicable and ill advised attempt to usurp the will of the American people.
It is not merely the sexual element of this dossier that is patent nonsense, the claims of a private server communicating with a Russian bank are also bunk as both the anti- Trump Washington Post and relatively neutral Intercept explained months ago.
In these cases, when the evil ones become desperate, the lack of evidence is merely incidental. The absence of facts obfuscated by an avalanche of lurid lies. Some writers have noticed the similarity to the prelude to the Iraq war.
The tactics are very similar, you pile one lie up on top of another and seek to bewilder the opponent who is not sure which lie to attack and while they are trying to figure out how to respond you pile more and more on, creating a grand compound lie.
In the case of Iraq, the big lie was not that Iraq had chemical or biological weapons, that is still what some claim but the real lie was that Iraq represented a threat to the world that needed to be acted upon. It made no difference even if Iraq did possess these weapons, they were still no threat to anyone and the leaders of the West knew that perfectly well. There may have been sincere and well meaning people who genuinely believed Iraq had these weapons but nobody in DC or London (or Canberra and Warsaw) truly believed that Iraq was going to do anything with those weapons. The idea that Iraq was a threat that needed to be addressed was the core lie. The rest is smoke.
In this case we begin with the semi-credible story that people in Russia entered the DNC server but there is zero evidence that Russia was the source for the Wikileaks releases, nor that the Russian leadership were involved, nor that the Wikileaks releases had any significant impact on the election,nor that Russia even favoured Trump.
In fact the Wikileaks revelations got very little traction in the US media and it was the extraordinary intervention of the FBI Chief James Comey eleven days before the election that switched the momentum of the campaign in Trump’s favour as the same parties who are now trying to blame Russia admitted at the time.
The parallels do not end there with one micro-brain on twitter attempting to directly link the Trump and Hussein families.
The Bottom Line.
The faction in power are not willing to accept defeat and every attempt is being made to make rapprochement with Russia impossible and/or remove Trump from the scene. It is very possible that the President elect and close associates will be publicly branded Russian agents by certain US intelligence agencies in the coming days. Arrests and indictments are possible, regardless of the lack of evidence.
It is also possible that certain elements will attempt to remove Trump from the scene entirely, or even Obama, for what is required is a crisis of sufficient magnitude to declare a National Emergency and activate the Continuity of Government process that supplants the elected government as happened quietly after 911.
Hopefully rationality and good sense prevail but there are numerous indications that the war party, the Deep State, the Cabal operatives in the US Government however they may be described, are going to do something dramatic in the coming days and months regardless of the will of the US people or the risk of destabilisation and conflict.
The internal battle is taking place beneath the surface but representatives of the factions communicate their views in the media.
Here some of them explain some of what is happening.
Democrat Senator Chuck Shumer on the Rachel Maddow show, January 3rd. (Source)
Rachel Maddow: “….he’s taking these shots, this antagonism, this taunting of the intelligence community.”
Shumer “Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you, so even for a practical supposedly hard nosed businessman he is being really dumb to do this.”
Maddow: (in gleeful expectation) “What do you think the intelligence community would do if they were motivated to?”
Shumer: “I don’t know but from what I’m told they are very upset at how he has treated them and talked about them.”
“Oh yes the Council on Foreign Relation private meetings that Hillary and John Kerry were at, you think somebody recorded those., (bellows) You think somebody recorded those hoss! You think we don’t have people everywhere jackass!”
(Note: This is very interesting as when Jones refers to “we”-“we have people everywhere” he is obviously not referring to Infowars which has it’s only real base in Austin and a small staff , the “we” who have people everywhere clearly refers to some intelligence agency or faction, and when combined with Jones’ recent pronouncement that long term associate Steve Piecnevik is a current CIA operative, it seems that Alex Jones and Infowars is a vehicle for one or more factions of US intelligence. This may explain the wildly erratic quality of Infowars work and their massive blind spots in certain areas.
But the real lesson here is that what we are observing are the surface ripples of a battle taking place within the CIA and the other elements of the US and international deep state, Rachel Maddow, Gordon Duff, John Schindler, Louise Mensch and almost the entire major media represent the ruling faction, Fox News, Drudge and Infowars are pretty much the only large outlets who openly support faction 2.
Credible and intelligent people are claiming the whole thing is theatre, it has gone well beyond that in my opinion but there is one important kernel of truth in that hypotheses and that is whatever side you are on, you are supporting the CIA)
AJ continues: “It’s all out there, so damaging it may destroy this country but before you are able to strangle it for sure and destroy it, it is going to be released… All of it.”
“So you broke your deal with Trump, you weasels, because a lot of this probably does need to come out it is so bad. Needs to be reform, taken care of, people need to be dealt with . A lot of folks need to get cancer, the real fast acting type. They need to agree to it.”
“But no you’re going to go on to the end, you are not going to stop. You are going to keep trying to sabotage things once Trump gets in, we understand that.We know that you are not going to go away, we understand you are never going to back off, We get it.”
“And so you want to have a big fight, you want to have a civil war? Fill your hands, go ahead, you don’t think everyone has been running around forever getting ready for this?”
Following his delivery of that incendiary missive, which I take seriously despite Jones’ spotty record in many areas and incessant exaggeration. Alex Jones apparently left town on an apparently unplanned holiday and has not reappeared in the Infowars Austin studio in the following ten days.
David Brooks explains the motive.
David Brooks is a long time New York Times columnist, a reliable establishment voice over decades with an intense and undisguised loyalty for the current power faction.
Here he offers a quick summation of the reason that Trump is unacceptable and must be either moved or removed lest the New World Order project drift even further from it’s course.
“But the thing that should most concern us is a shift in American foreign policy, we have had a bipartisan belief in American foreign policy based on the post World War 2 institutions that believed in democratic global world (sic) which Russia and the Soviet Union was often seen as hostile to, and most Republicans and Democrats have always basically believed in this world order.”
(Note: The conflation of the Soviet communist monstrosity with Russia is a classic lie the minions slip into the conversation to obscure the fact that there is no basis for the US to perceive modern day Russia as a threat or an enemy.)
“Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin and maybe Marine Le Pen do not agree with this basic structure of the world.They seem to have no respect for the institutions that were created after World War 2 and they see a potential alliance of populists around the world who would fight Islam and restore a certain semblance of traditional values. And so we could be seeing a pivot in American foreign policy which may be in the mind of Trump, certainly seems to be in the mind of Stephen Bannon, his ideologist and this is a piece of that larger shift.”
Any form of nationalism, no matter how rational or reasonable, is forbidden.
The truth of course is that the only threat the US faces and the only real threat the US has ever faced in the post Civil war period at least, is the tyranny of the cabal imposed from within.

I mean we have a week before this inauguration and this really damning dossier-if it gets proven true- and you know it seems there is obviously behind the scenes work right now- some people are probably trying to cover it up and others maybe willing to verify it and try and take down Trump before he gets in office.What could possibly? Where could this possibly go?”
Duff : “Right now, the Republican party right now, is I suspect they are trying to find a way to get rid of , get rid of Trump….conveniently.”
Dr. Barrett: “OK well (laughs) What is a convenient way to get rid of a guy like Trump?”

The Fires in Tianjin will presumably burn for months
The death toll from the Tianjin blasts stands at 114, with another 80 missing and presumed dead. The truth is that given the condition that the site is still in I would suggest that the death toll is in all likelihood far higher.
There were two major explosions in the Port of Tianjin on August 12th, one has been estimated as being the equivalent of three tonnes of TNT, the other the equivalent of 21 tonnes of TNT. They are described as having caused seismic readings of 2.3 and 2.9.
There has been no information offered whatsoever by the Chinese Government as to the specific cause of the blast and the popular conspiracy theories on this one seem to have missed the mark other than in their assertion that this was no mere industrial accident.
The scene of what is left of the area looks like Hiroshima, Nagasaki or Manhattan after 911, only more so. The devastation is far more intense. It looks like a war has been fought in the Tianjin Port, a devastating and prolonged war.
A Nuclear Event?
There are so many signs that a nuclear event has taken place that some type of nuclear event remains the best explanation until a better alternative is provided. This does not mean that there was necessarily an attack, simply that the explosion is the result of some type of nuclear incident.
The persistent fires, small fresh explosions days later, the blast damage, the scale of the crater, the fact that Chinese Government investigators are wearing full NBC protection suits at all times and the Nuclear weapons specialists the Chinese have sent to the scene are all signs that a nuclear event took place in Tianjin on August 12th.
“The big clue is in the ash produced and the exploding radiators on the cars. They show the radiation and the blast patterns the best. All melted rubber, glass, and aluminium but no melted steel? This tells you it is from radiation and not from a gasoline fire. Temps between 1500 degrees C for melting aluminium and less than 3,000 degrees C for melting steel. Everything organic ashes below 450 degrees C.
This had a plasma fireball that was over 4,000C! Only a nuke can do that. The clue is in the white ash leftover from the thermal blast.”
One of the striking things about Nuclear weapons is the intense blast of light that they create. It is quite unique and could be observed very clearly in the aftermath of the Israeli Nuclear attack against Syria of May 2013.There was a very striking bright light produced from the second Tianjin blast, and watching the videos I was going through the whiteout section frame by frame, counting the frames. There seemed to be a very long whiteout although the light was not quite as intense as the May 2013 Syria proven nuclear event. I was able to count over thirty separate frames of white light in the videos taken at a distance of several kilometres from the blast. The closer to the blast the earlier the camera person would be knocked off shot by the blast wave.
“look at the white out in the centre of the photo. This is where the brightness is so great that it overloads the ccd pickup chip causing a clipping effect. The fact that the fireball was whited out or clipped indicates that the colour temperature was over 4,000 degrees C. Only achievable in a nuclear blast. The cameras auto gain circuit clips the video level for being too bright so you get a white out on the screen.”
The Before and After Problem.
One strange detail is the fact that there does not appear to have been a warehouse at the blast epicenter.
The presenter of the satellite imagery on Chinese state CCTV openly states that the centre of the blast was in a car park. The before and after satellite images are completely lacking in any large warehouse or building at the centre of the blast site. We see a fairly good set of before and after photos and there is no doubt about the fact that there seem to be several large warehouses towards the edge of the blast but there was no warehouse at or near the epicenter.
How does that work?
Satellite images show destruction in Tianjin blasts’ core area
Surely the source and epicenter should be in the same place?
Perhaps there were goods stored underground. That appears the only possibility because it has happened, the devastation emanates from a car park and that is not a viable source for a 21 tonne, 2.9 on the Richter scale blast.
The story that got a lot of traction was that the US attacked the Tianjin Port with the “Rod of God” or Project Thor “kinetic bombardment” weapon.
The idea behind Project Thor is that you simply drop a steel pole from space and by the time the object strikes the target it will be travelling at extreme speed (Mach 10 is quoted hypothetically) and will cause massive devastation due to its velocity without any bomb having to be used. This is the “rod of god” as far as we know which is very little.
“6 m. Tungsten rods launched from near Earth orbit, invisible to radar, could strike anywhere on earth, impact speed of Mach 10, impact equal to a tactical nuclear bomb but with no explosives.”
If the Tianjin explosions had been caused by steel objects traveling at high-speed it is extremely likely that these rods would have been visible and-or audible, and given that the Tianjin blasts were filmed by many cameras these objects should have surely been seen or heard in the video recordings of the event. But they weren’t.
Having never witnessed this system in action this is pretty speculative obviously but an object entering the earth’s atmosphere traveling at Mach 10 will make a tremendous sound and I don’t see any way around that.
The same applies for the hypothesis of a cruise missile strike. Videos of cruise missile strikes on Baghdad are available on Youtube, they make a loud whistling or hissing sound that can be heard prior to impact.
The Lack of an Electro- Magnetic Pulse.
Some have pointed to the lack of an atmospheric ElectroMagnetic Pulse (EMP) in Tianjin is evidence that something other than a nuclear detonation has taken place.
“The way you generate an EMP (or any interesting electromagnetic effect) is you get a bunch of charge and suddenly move it. A nuclear weapon on its own doesn’t have a bunch of extra charges to move around, but luckily (unluckily?) the Earth abides! Between about 40 and 300 miles above your head (about 39 and 299 miles for our Denver readers) there’s a layer of charged particles called the ionosphere. It’s created by radiation from space (mostly the Sun) knocking electrons free of their host atoms. A nuke releases enough heat, suddenly enough, that the resulting upward and outward “puff” of air literally moves the ionosphere overhead. That moving charge is what causes the bulk of the EMP. To a lesser extent, a nuclear device also ionizes the surrounding air, and then moves that.”
So the EMP effect is created by the interaction between a powerful explosion and the ionosphere and the same source Why do nuclear weapons cause EMPs (electromagnetic pulses)? appears to answer the question regarding the lack of EMP observed in Tianjin, and in New York City in 2001.The EMP effect is greatly reduced when the detonation takes place underground as the ground acts as a cushion between the device and the ionosphere.
If you think about a Port and what is special about a Port and about what might make a Port a target of an attack there are two standout possibilities.
A Port is an economic hub, the Tianjin blasts will have an impact on the Chinese Economy and the Chinese Government.So, if we accept that the incident was no accident, an economic attack on China is one possible motive.
The other special characteristic of a Port is that it is a transit point for all sorts of goods, so one other possibility that must be considered is that something being moved through the Port was targeted.
A nuclear device has been detonated, that seems fairly clear at this stage and no-one is even really denying it.
Another advantage of attacking the Tianjin Port lies in the masking effect, the plausible deniability achieved by the fact that a number of volatile chemicals were stored at the Port and standards of control measures employed at the Port were clearly inadequate as this had been the subject of previous public protests.
Either the Nuclear device was used as an act of sabotage and terror or Nuclear devices being moved through the Port were targeted by another party, an outside possibility that should not be dismissed.
China, the United States and the New World Order.
A Very Short History of Post Revolutionary China.
The Chinese Communist party seized power in 1949, the leader was the Yale connected Chairman Mao. The nation that Mao found himself the ruler was overwhelmingly rural and agrarian. The story of CCP rule in China has been more than anything else, a story of urbanisation and industrialisation.
The results have been mega-cities filled with urban immigrants working in slave labor conditions under leaden skies filled with industrial pollution. The mainstream mantra about the “”Chinese miracle” simply ignores the life that has been imposed upon China’s urban proletariat and the environment they are expected to inhabit.
The relationship between China and the United States has had some extremely interesting moments. The current two largest economies were official enemies until the early 1970’s. The Korean war represented the high point of the first phase of the relationship.
China presented the US with an extremely unpleasant surprise in Korea. The US and it’s allies had all but won the war, North Korea was facing total defeat and US forces were almost at the border with China when they were attacked by a massive force of infantry that managed to cut off the US Eighth Army who were largely surrounded by the Chinese forces.
“the U.S. Eighth Army’s retreat (the longest in US Army history) was made possible because of the Turkish Brigade’s successful, but very costly, rear-guard delaying action near Kunuri that slowed the PVA attack for two days (27–29 November). On 27 November at the Korean eastern front, a U.S. 7th Infantry Division Regimental Combat Team (3,000 soldiers) and the U.S. 1st Marine Division (12,000–15,000 marines) were unprepared for the PVA 9th Army Group’s three-pronged encirclement tactics at the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, but they managed to escape under Air Force and X Corps support fire—albeit with some 15,000 collective casualties.[194 “
The Eighth Army conducted a retreat that remains the longest ever retreat US forces have been involved in. In order to escape the Chinese encirclement the US soldiers abandoned their heavy weapons and much of their equipment and were reduced to the status of a disorganised rabble.
The territory of North Korea was thus reclaimed with the help of the Chinese forces who inflicted a terrible setback on the United States despite the US having total air superiority and better weapons and equipment in every respect.
A similar situation persisted until the 1970s when a grand deal appears to have been struck between China and the West to make China a key manufacturing centre as the West was de-industrialised.
How the West Re-colonized China
Between 1980 and the present day China seems to have operated as a Communist Party gangster state in key partnership with the oligarchs of Global Finance.
The transition was overseen by a group known as the Eight Elders, also sometimes called the Eight Immortals. The most well known figure among this group is Deng Xiaoping. The model of leadership that this group put in place was seized upon by further generations of the CCP leadership including a group known as the Shanghai clique.
A key figure appears in the Shanghai clique was Jiang Zamin, a known confidant of Henry Kissinger who amassed a tremendous amount of military and political power within the Chinese Communist party structure
“Jiang Zemin (born 17 August 1926) is a retired Chinese politician who served as General Secretary of the Communist Party of China from 1989 to 2002, as Chairman of the Central Military Commission from 1989 to 2004, and as President of the People’s Republic of China from 1993 to 2003. Jiang has been described as the “core of the third generation” of Communist Party leaders”
The Jiang faction appears to be engaged in a power-struggle with the current leadership that is active to the present day.
This faction, or series of factions appear to have ruled China throughout the industrial and urban transition. They were great friends with the Western elite who admired them due to their powers of coercion, the level of obedience they achieved and the ruthless measures they were willing to take against any who objected.
The China that came into existence over the past 35 or 40 years WAS the New World Order in all its dystopian glory.
But China was never just a factory, it was a place producing millions and millions of engineers, doctors and other technically qualified University graduates. The New World Order dystopia was always destined to brush up against the reality of a burgeoning middle class making increasing demands regarding environmental controls and other lifestyle elements, as well as greater political freedom and more access to power.
The Chinese Government seems split between “open” gangsters who want the party to go on forever and realists who believe that the party will be destroyed unless it can be more responsive and transparent.
They have been above the law for several decades. So as part of Xi Jinping and his faction asserting themselves, many of these former strongmen with close ties to the Western New World Order leadership have been marginalised and destroyed by what is probably an equally ruthless and unethical opponent of a more Nationalist bent.
Numerous assassination plots against Xi and key allies have been alleged. In September 2012 Xi Jinping’s vehicle was rammed deliberately by another vehicle and forced from the road. On the same day one of Xi’s key allies suffered an identical fate. Neither man was badly hurt.
One of the theories listed in the Daily Mails “conspiracy round up” on Tianjin was that it was plot against the life of President Xi Jinping. This rumour was probably started by the perpetrators, another intimidatory message as well as a smokescreen.
Bo Xilai and the death of Neil Heywood.
The very strange death of Heywood set off a chain of events that led to the complete political destruction of Bo Xilai, alleged to be a key ally of George Soros and the Western banking cartel families.
Wayne Madsen explains the significance of the Heywood, Bo Xilai nexus and their connections to British Intelligence and the Rothschild banking dynasty
“Heywood, fluent in Mandarin Chinese and the reported handler of Bo Guagua, Bo’s son, at the exclusive British Papplewich and Harrow boarding schools, as well as at Oxford University, was a consultant to Hakluyt & Company, Ltd., a secretive British private intelligence firm established in 1995 and linked to the Rothschilds. Chinese officials reported that Heywood died in his hotel room from severe alcohol poisoning, but his friends pointed out that he was a teetotaler.”
Bo Xilai;s wife .Gu Kailai, confessed to murdering Heywood several months after the death which had originally been attributed to alcohol poisoning.”
Alcohol poisoning was not a feasible choice for a cause of death as Heywood did not drink alcohol at all and an investigation was reopened and the matter exploded when Bo Xilai’s former police chief Wang Lijun fled to the US consulate and accused his former boss of corruption and involvement in the Heywood murder.
The US refused to let the apparent whistle-blower take refuge and he was force to leave after 24 hours and taken into custody by the Chinese Government who had him declared mentally unsound and committed to an institution. Wang Lijun was later sentenced to fifteen years prison.
One sign of Bo Xilai’s audacity was the fact that he intercepted and spied upon any and all phone traffic inside Chonqing, his sphere of influence. This included the interception of phone calls made by the then President Hu Jintao made during his time in the city.
Certain elements of the CCP have seemingly decided that Bo Xilai and his British Intelligence pal had to go. It seems that agents of the Chinese state “got to” Heywood but made a nasty error in their chosen cause of death.
So the crime was used to destroy the entire Bo Xilai network with his wife taking the blame for Heywood’s murder, presumably under coercion, Bo Xilai imprisoned and Heywood dead.
Logically it seems that part of the reason Tianjin happened was that multiple lines of succession that had been put in place in China by the Western oligarchs had just been destroyed or otherwise marginalised.
This is obviously just conjecture that attempts to find meaning in this deeply puzzling and troubling event.
The reliable old allies such as Jiang were being aggressively sidelined and arrested for corruption.
The contract the Bankers felt they had with the CCP was no longer to their mind being adhered to, so they made their feelings known in their customary manner, by conducting a false flag atrocity. This is the favored form of communication when other channels are not working, the “deep” message.
“The Cabal” refers to a claque of global-scale plutocratic manipulators who use their immense wealth, prestige and power to control governments and economies to perpetuate their stranglehold on global society.”
Before entering into speculation as to the identity of the perpetrators and the delivery method they used, it is worth contemplating how serious a situation this is for the perpetrators.
China has been attacked. China is going to know that it has been attacked and it is going to know that a Nuclear weapon has just been used in one of its cities.
This is an unprecedented event. A nuclear armed superpower has just seemingly been covertly attacked in a shadow war with an unnamed enemy using Nuclear weapons.
The comparisons with the damage caused to Manhattan and Tianjin are quite clear. But the situation here is completely different.
The Limits to 911 Comparisons.
When the Cabal conducted 911, they were offering a great deal to the US government. They were giving them a story, a national security story, a foreign policy story, a story where the US government played the good guys and no-one questioned the level of military spending and the new police state measures.
It was quite a friendly deal in many ways, probably reflecting the fact that the US Government was heavily penetrated by the Cabal and thus considered an “unruly ally” that needed to be put in line.
They are not really offering China anything at this point in terms of a narrative.Indeed there seems to be a concerted attempt to crash the Chinese stock market and possibly entire economy underway at the moment, in parallel with this attack.
This is a covert declaration of war against a Nuclear superpower. This is an act of insanity, utter insanity and can only rationally be seen as an attempt to promote general war between China and the United States or as part of an attempted coup in China.
The intent of the plotters is not known but there can be no doubt this is a most sinister plot with the potential to begin a far broader human catastrophe.
There have long been and continue to be parallel chains of command operating within the US state. The Official US chain of command has not done this and I severely doubt that the unofficial chain of command did it either, but once you get these parallel chains of command you never know what may happen.
The action does not fit the profile of either the CIA or the US military neither of whom are about to declare war on China. A cruise missile has a return address, as well as a distinctive sound that was not heard.
Until the beneath the surface reality of what was being stored at the site emerges, it is impossible to tell if there was something in the Tianjin Port that was specifically targeted. If this information becomes available a far more complete picture of the incident may emerge to illuminate the hidden facts behind this attack as the knowledge of the twelve dead Syrian scientists illuminated the April 2004 Ryongchon disaster.
All logic points to the device being placed at the site of the attack rather than fired from a projectile. This is the only delivery method that makes any sense as a cruise missile has a return address. Any external weapon has a return address.
If you imagine yourself in the perpetrators position and you are going to engage in a covert Nuclear attack on a target, The device will be placed at the attack site by an agent rather than any military delivery system because if you use a jet or a satellite to deliver the weapon to the site, it will be much harder to disguise what has happened and the identity of the perpetrators.
The fact that no object was filmed nor described nor heard impacting in Tianjin is not proof that there was no impact but it does place a massive question mark over any hypothesis that relies on this such as the rod of god and cruise missile hypotheses. If Tianjin was attacked by an aerial platform it was an invisible platform delivering an invisible weapon it seems.
This does not exclude the possibility that a laser based platform was used to detonate a secondary device in Tianjin.
This event has many of the signatures of the Western Dark elite, the Cabal or Bankers Empire.
‘If we are caught they will just replace us with persons of the same cloth. So it does not matter what you do, America is a golden calf and we will suck it dry, chop it up, and sell it off piece by piece until there is nothing left but the world’s biggest welfare state that we will create and control. Why? Because it is the will of God, and America is big enough to take the hit so we can do it again and again and again. This is what we do to countries that we hate. We destroy them very slowly and make them suffer for refusing to be our slaves.’
Alleged D.I.A recording of Benjamin Netanyahu, Finks Bar, 1990.
This is a shocking little speech but the really interesting thing here is the we. Who is “We” here?
It’s not Israel surely, Israel as a state does not hate the United States for obvious reasons. Few nations have done more for another state than the US has done for Israel in terms of financial and military support.
It’s not Israel, nor even the Likud party, it is certainly not Jewish people in general or anything or anyone that is associated with the Netanyahu public persona.
The “We “ Netanyahu refers to is the Western Financial Oligarchy or to put it bluntly, the Cabal.
When those former IDF members detonated weapons in New York City in 2001, this was who they were serving and this role has been played by a number of Western and Law Enforcement and Intelligence organs to a greater or lesser extent.
This has very little to do with the State of Israel or any other state. MI5 and MI6 have played the role, the FBI, CIA and even elements of the US military have played this role at various times along with the Mossad.
The crimes belong to the criminal overlords and the co-opted agencies but it would be incorrect to identify these operations with any nation.
All these groups were simply cut outs, they were being used, it could just as easily have been the Nigerian Security Services or the Australian, but the ability to get things done would not be achieved by that, hence the intense targeting of so many US agencies.
The US along with the British, French and the Israeli’s got priority for infiltration because of the power it conferred. That is how it seems to work.
The response to this incident from the Chinese Government is a matter of mystery. Some things can be assumed. The Chinese probably know that a Nuclear weapon has been detonated in one of their cities, and if they do not know this now, they soon will.
No matter what is said in public or how long it takes, they are not going to sit back and take this. This is not the Government of Syria or a small weak state that has been attacked. Bad things are going to happen on the back of this event whether it takes them ten or twenty years they will and they can extract revenge for this event.
Surely it is time to recognise the threat these sinister elements represent to the West and to human civilisation?
The best that can be hoped to come from this would be the destruction and imprisonment of the criminal cabal. If Western agencies help the Chinese Government identify the real perpetrators of this event the Chinese will understand that someone is trying to manipulate a major war and avoid this cataclysmic path.
The dismantlement of this group would have been the logical thing to do following 911, all things considered. The failure to act on previous atrocities has and will continue to leave the way open for these fiends to commit fresh evil such as the attack on Tianjin. How many more must die before people recognise the true nature of this group and what they represent?

Essays consider and challenge binaries in the design fields and navigate their complex and fertile middle grounds to address issues of climate change, systemic racism, and beyond
As communities around the world increasingly grapple with the physical effects of our changing climate, and the disciplines of the built environment adapt to address current and future challenges, The University of Texas at Austin School of Architecture’s 2021-2022 issue of PLATFORM explores the importance of rethinking disciplinary boundaries, embracing complexity, and navigating the spaces in-between as we work to create a more sustainable, resilient and equitable future.
Edited by Associate Professor Matt Fajkus, Sustainable Design—Innovation on Middle Ground features scholarship from across the School of Architecture that advances more sustainable buildings, landscapes, communities, and cities. With writings that span from global and regional scales to material technologies and beyond, each essay presents examples of how faculty and students navigate the middle ground of perceived dichotomies in our fields. Example relationships that call for such alignment and balance include those between city and nature, local and global, present and future, lessons of precedent and needs for invention, and responsibilities to clients and society.
“While sustainable design exists as a distinct program within our school, the larger impact acts more as an ethos that threads through all programs and the very foundation of the school’s ecosystem,” said Fajkus, who also leads the Graduate Program in Sustainable Design. “At its essence, it can be argued that sustainability is not only about work that explores multiple topics in both depth and breadth, but also about finding the middle ground between multiple options or perspectives.”
Essays within Sustainable Design—Innovation on Middle Ground frame planning and design through relationships, rather than objects, demonstrating how research methods, critical practices, and teaching at the School of Architecture cuts across professional areas of expertise and expands disciplinary perspectives. Essay titles and authors include:
- “Community-Centered Climate Planning: Addressing Past Inequities by Preparing for New Climate Futures,” by Assistant Professor Katherine Lieberknecht
- “The End of Binary: What Queer Ecology and Queer People Can Teach Us About Doing Better Design and Planning Work,” by Lecturer and alumna Katie Coyne, Environmental Officer and Assistant Director of Watershed Protection at the City of Austin
- “A Research-Practice Partnership to Advance Anti-Racist Green Building, Education, and Practice,” by Assistant Professor Miriam Solis, Abby Randall, Deputy Director, EcoRise; and Will Davies, Ph.D. candidate, UT Austin and Policy and Data Analyst at Breakthrough Central Texas
- “Plants v. Code: Phyto-Performance and Building Regulations,” by Assistant Professor Aleksandra Jaeschke
- “Building Relationship,” by Professor of Practice Coleman Coker
- “Climate Change, Population Growth, and Energy Consumption in Texas,” by Assistant Professor Juliana Felkner
- “The City of Austin Office of Sustainability and the UT Austin School of Architecture: Sustainable Design Between Global and Local Systems,” by Associate Professor Matt Fajkus and Daniel Garcia, Design Architect, MF Architecture
- “Dispelling Misconceptions about (Mass) Timber in the City,” by Associate Professor Ulrich Dangel
- “Material Manifesto,” by Lecturer and Director of the Materials Lab Jen Wong
- “Measuring Sustainability,” by Associate Professor Francisco Gomes
The School of Architecture has a long and storied history regarding questions of the environment and sustainability. In 1965, the school organized the Texas Conference on Our Environmental Crisis, and sustainability has since been integrated into the school in manifold ways, including as one of the fundamental tenets of the Community and Regional Planning program, as the framework for the advanced degrees in Sustainable Design, and as the tone for research from the Center for Sustainable Development. The appointment of Michelle Addington as Dean in 2017—with her expertise on energy systems, advanced materials, and new technology—has also bolstered the school’s presence and performance in sustainable design thinking.
“I came to The University of Texas at Austin School of Architecture four years ago because I believed it was uniquely suited to address difficult and complex questions, most especially surrounding climate change,” said Addington. “With disciplines spanning the full range of the built environment, we know what it takes to step out of our purview and fold in knowledge from far afield. Sustainability is not a problem to be solved with a heroic solution or a mandate, but rather a constant questioning and requestioning as we work through difficult, intractable problems with the hope that with each question we learn something new, and in so doing, cause less harm.”
Leora Visotzky, Managing Director of the Center for American Architecture and Design, served as Managing Editor for Sustainable Design—Innovation on Middle Ground, with students Julia Szeto and Carolina English serving as Assistant Editors.

Half-sisters Cassie and Peck could not be more different. Cassie is a journalist with her feet firmly planted on the ground; Peck is an actress with her head in the clouds. In fact, the only thing they seem to have in common is their inheritance. Fool's House is a broken-down home in the Hamptons left to Cassie and Peck by their Aunt Lydia, a house that she decreed they must share. But Cassie and Peck can't afford the place, and they can't agree on what to do with it. Plus, along with the house, they've inherited an artist-in-residence and self-proclaimed genius named Biggsy who seems to bring suspiciously bad luck wherever he goes. Cassie and Peck try to figure out their Aunt Lydia's puzzling instructions to seek the thing of utmost value in the house, but as summer comes to a close, they seem no closer to coming to a decision. The Summer We Read Gatsby is filled with fabulous parties, tempting romances, eccentric characters, and insider society details. It's a sparkling novel that showcases Danielle Ganek's pitch-perfect sense of style and wit.About the Author:

"Consider the relationship of Hollywood and Broadway. In the twenties, the two were sharply differentiated, movies being produced for the masses of the hinterland, theatre for an upper-class New York audience. The theatre was High Culture, mostly of the Academic variety (Theatre Guild) but with some spark of Avant-garde fire (the "little" or "experimental" theatre movement). The movies were definitely Mass Culture, mostly very bad but with some leaven of Avant-gardism (Griffiths, Stroheim) and Folk Art (Chaplin and other comedians). With the sound film, Broadway and Hollywood drew closer together. Plays are now produced mainly to sell the movie rights, with many being directly financed by the film companies. The merger has standardized the theatre to such an extent that even the early Theatre Guild seems vital in retrospect, while hardly a trace of the "experimental" theatre is left. And what have the movies gained? They are more sophisticated, the acting is subtler, the sets in better taste. But they too have become standardized: they are never as awful as they often were in the old days, but they are never as good either. They are better entertainment and worse art."

Why is Mesothelioma Often Talked About in the Media?
You hear about it all the time when watching or reading the news: someone is suing a company because they or a loved one was exposed to mesothelioma. There’s a reason that cases like these are so newsworthy. While this cancer is fatal, it’s also totally preventable. Here is all you need to know about mesothelioma, including symptoms, what causes it, if there’s a treatment, and how to pursue legal action if a loved one died from this cancer.
What Is Mesothelioma?
As mentioned, mesothelioma is a cancerous medical condition. Those who have worked in a warehouse, mechanics, construction site, mine, or any other worksite where asbestos was present are most likely to develop mesothelioma. That said, you may not necessarily get mesothelioma after working around asbestos. If you do have mesothelioma, it is possible to bring it home and infect your family with the condition even if they were personally never in an environment where asbestos was present.
What Are the Symptoms of Mesothelioma?
Depending on the type of mesothelioma you have, your symptoms may be different. If you have abdominal or peritoneal mesothelioma, for example, you may experience an inability to gain weight, have visible bumpy tissue masses across the torso, have a swollen stomach, and experience insistent aches in that area. If you have lung or pleural mesothelioma, you may also find it difficult to gain weight and have those same bumpy masses. Besides those symptoms, you may find it hard to breathe, you may cough a lot, and your ribs and chest may hurt.
One major reason mesothelioma cases have made it into the news time and again is because these are just becoming an issue in recent years. If you worked in an environment with asbestos a decade or more ago, your symptoms may just manifest now. In some cases, some people develop symptoms 30 or 40 years after exposure. People have long since learned of the dangers of asbestos, but its effects are just being felt recently.
Is Mesothelioma Treatable?
In most cases, mesothelioma isn’t treatable, but it does depend. If a doctor diagnoses mesothelioma early enough, then certain treatments may be prescribed. Gene therapy, radiation, chemotherapy, and various surgeries may be effective in removing the cancer.
However, mesothelioma is a fast-moving condition. If it’s not caught early enough, most of the time there’s little if anything, a doctor can do.
What Should I Do if I Think I Have Mesothelioma?
If you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, it’s crucial that you get medical assistance immediately. If someone you know has died from this condition, you may be eligible to receive compensation.
Can I Pursue Legal Action?
The law offices of Branch & Dhillon, P.C. specialize in personal injury cases, including mesothelioma deaths. Immediately after the death, you may be shocked and grieving. Parents, children, and a spouse of the deceased are all eligible to sue. Even if the death wasn’t recent, you have two years to take action.To learn more about filing a lawsuit associated with mesothelioma, contact us to schedule a consultation.

Mr. Pickle’s Sandwich Shop Breaks Ground in Queen Creek, Eyes Mid-Fall Opening
By Justin Liggin -
Tuesday Jul 25, 2023
Mr. Pickle’s Sandwich Shop, a beloved mom-and-pop family of quick-service restaurants with premium sandwiches and salads, has officially broken ground in Queen Creek. The restaurant, which is 1,600-square-feet and will employ approximately 25 team members, will be located at 200 W. Combs Road at the Vineyard Towne Center and is set to open by mid-Fall.
“Since 1995, Mr. Pickle’s has been a premier sandwich shop specializing in innovative and craveworthy sandwiches, salads and catering,” says Mike Nelson, chief executive officer, Valley resident, and long-time customer who purchased the brand in 2020 when founders/owners Frank and Michele Fagundes decided to retire. “During its first three decades, thanks to its community culture, incredible recipes, and all its fans, the brand grew from one to 56 locations across northern California.”
Mr. Pickle’s new location will be the brand’s first shop in Queen Creek and its sixth in Arizona, with previous restaurants opening in Scottsdale, Chandler, and Surprise earlier in 2023, and a Laveen location slated to open by September. In 2021, when Nelson purchased the brand, the national headquarters also moved to the Valley.
“Our new Queen Creek restaurant will feature all of Mr. Pickle’s most popular hot and cold sandwiches, notably the Mr. Pickle, which is chicken breast, bacon, Monterey jack, avocado and the works as it relates to veggies; the Santa Maria Tri-Tip, which is actual tri-tip sourced from the famed Santa Maria region topped with specialty barbeque sauce and the works; and Big Jake, a turkey sandwich with cream cheese, avocado and the works,” said Nelson.
The brand now also has two new sandwiches of note.
“The first is Listen Linda, which is named after my wife of 36 years and is piled high with turkey breast, avocado, bacon, Swiss cheese and the works – including our specialty garlic sauce – as far as condiments unless otherwise noted,” says Nelson. “And the second? That would be Della’s Deli, which honors my business partner, best friend, and Mr. Pickle’s president Dean Johnson’s wife of more than 40 years, Della. It features turkey breast, ham, salami, cheddar, and the works.”
There are 10 types of bread and wraps from which to choose at Mr. Pickle’s, including the Dutch crunch roll, sourdough roll, sweet roll, wheat roll, sliced sourdough, sliced wheat, sliced marble rye, and various wraps, including gluten-free wraps. In addition to a wide selection of chips, sides include red potato salad, macaroni salad, jumbo whole dill pickles (of course!), and fresh baked chocolate chunk cookies. A cookie is also given FREE with every sandwich, salad, or wrap.
“For those who do not know the brand yet, every order automatically comes with one of our melt-in-your-mouth cookies, a hallmark of the brand since its inception,” says Nelson, adding there is also apple sauce available as a side in kid’s menus as well.
In addition to carrying its full menu and adding new recipes that fit the market, Mr. Pickle’s will continue to its close-knit relationships with vendors as it grows, notably Frito-Lay, Dirty Chip, Pepsi, Foster Farms, Max’s Artisan Breads, Best Foods, and Hidden Valley. A leader in online ordering technology, Mr. Pickle’s partners with DoorDash and invested in Paytronix Systems, Inc., the most advanced digital guest experience platform, in the past year. Through the partnership Mr. Pickle’s uses the full Paytronix Platform for its loyalty, order, delivery, mobile and gift system.
“We partner with as many artisan bakers, regional farms and ranches that we can when sourcing our products, making every item unique to us,” says Nelson, who spent the past year bringing the business into the digital age and investing in technology that will propel the brand forward nationwide. “You will not see six-inch and footlong sizing from us, more specialty breads than uniform options.”
