A group representing 40 native Alaskan tribes has severely criticized US President Donald Trump’s new executive order that paves the way for oil drilling in the Arctic. On Friday, Trump signed an executive order aimed at reducing restrictions on oil drilling in the Arctic and Atlantic... The order ... would reverse drilling bans put in place by Barack Obama last year. The Bering Sea Elders Group, which represents 40 of Alaska’s coastal tribes, released a statement slamming Trump’s order, saying it removes their say in what the federal government does with the waters they rely on for food.First, of course, we have the standard modern lunacy. Obama signed this order at the last minute. Obama's order NEVER DID ANYTHING, so Trump is just removing an EMPTY order and restoring things to the way they were before the one day when these midnight orders existed. Trump's order is EQUALLY EMPTY because it's undoing something that WASN'T DONE. How come the Elders weren't bothered by this condition during the 7 years and 364 days of Obama's administration when this condition existed, or the many years before then? How does one day of an order, which never actually goes into effect, establish a long tradition of sovereignty? This is nothing more than bigotry. The status quo was OK when it was owned by a Democrat, but automatically became NOT OK when it was owned by the KKK hologram of "Trump". = = = = = Now let's compare with an earlier version of Redskin Power. In 1933 an international conference tried to settle radio frequency allocations among various countries. Lots of US interests were involved, so lots of US interests sent lobbyists to represent their interests. You can call it corruption if you're a technocrat, but it's just plain democracy in action. One major player in American radio was JR Brinkley, the Goat Gland Doctor. He had been running a powerful radio station in Kansas until the FCC clamped down on his dubious medical claims. He had moved across the border to Mexico, where he set up a 500KW transmitter that reached most of America, and continued running his popular programs and his dubious clinic. Another important Kansan was Charles Curtis, who was both a Kansan and a Kansa. He was Hoover's VP, so his bully power was still strong in 1933. Curtis went to the international conference representing Brinkley.........
In other words, Curtis was a normal AMERICAN politician, helping a constituent from HIS STATE and undoubtedly getting a nice kickback. He was SANELY attempting to prevent a REAL CHANGE that would do REAL DAMAGE to HIS STATE.
Curtis succeeded in allowing high-power stations, and many such Mexican stations continued into the 1960s. It didn't help Brinkley specifically; the US gov't soon pushed Mexico to shut him down, and he moved back to Texas where courts finally caught up with him.

As a representative of Flynn Intel Group, Flynn met with senior representatives of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's government in September 2016, Woolsey said. Woolsey was a Trump campaign adviser at the time and attended the meeting -- but said he arrived after it was already well underway. Woolsey claims that those present discussed sending Fethullah Gulen, a Muslim leader who Erdogan has accused of being behind a failed military coup to overthrow him, back to Turkey to face charges -- possibly outside the legal US extradition system.Flynn was considering a move that would offend and weaken Our Supreme God and Savior Soros.

During his presidential campaign, Trump had promised Catholics relief from the HHS mandate, which requires employers to offer health insurance plans covering contraception, sterilization and some early abortion drugs. In a letter to the Catholic Leadership Conference last October, he pointed to his opponent Hillary Clinton’s support for the mandate, and said “that is a hostility to religious liberty you will never see in a Trump administration.” After Trump’s election, the plaintiffs challenging the mandate widely expected that the new administration would drop the government’s appeal of the lawsuits, which federal circuit courts may re-examine in the coming months. Instead of dropping the cases, however, the administration indicated that it intends to take the next step in the litigation process. On Tuesday, The Washington Post reported that the Justice Department had asked a federal appeals court for 60 extra days to negotiate an agreement with East Texas Baptist University and several other plaintiffs challenging the mandate. The Supreme Court last year had instructed the Obama administration to negotiate with the plaintiffs as the next step in the litigation process.One soul. Going, going, gone. Cheap.

Needless to say, KHQ's first instinct was to ask the NYC Rich Criminal Center whether such images are illegal.
You'd think a BROADCASTER would have SOME SLIGHT FAMILIARITY with the concept of freedom of expression, but obviously they don't. Their FIRST THOUGHT is that anything disliked by rich NYC demons is illegal.
In practice they're right. The extinct ancient constitution formerly said otherwise, but Sorosian black-robed demons make all the "laws" now.
Unfortunately the Post Falls trucking company also lives in a bubble. Nobody in their bubble is aware of the EXTERMINATION that awaits heresy.
Both bubbles could use an ambassador or consul who represents the other bubble, an early-warning service to circumvent self-destructive moves. The NYC bubble has nothing to fear from the black-robed demons, but a stupid decision (eg Target's bathrooms) can still be costly.
That does the job. I can still hear the disk if I try, but it's no longer the MOST SALIENT SOUND, and it no longer 'recruits' my tinnitus.
As usual, good science means abandoning theories and presuppositions. Just TRY EVERYTHING. Especially try things that "can't work" or "shouldn't work".

Three days later: Yup, still working. I wasn't fooling myself, as I too often do. This significantly reduces headachy tension and stops the mutual-resonance effect with tinnitus.
Three weeks later: Still working. With less salient tinnitus, I find less need to use radio noise as masking. Nowadays radio noise is nothing but
so eliminating the toxic brainsludge lowered overall tension even more. Vicious cycle switched to virtuous cycle.Labels: Experiential education, Zero Problems
But again WeatherUnderground is slower to pick up the revision:
1947 marked the founding of postwar Globalism, uniting CIA and Leftists to serve Bankers. Byron Price thought he was helping to push the wave of American control.
His point was essentially:
Shortwave is a direct advertising medium to foreign countries. If we're going to export our stuff to foreign countries, we should be advertising our stuff on shortwave. We shouldn't be thinking of shortwave as pure government propaganda.
Price thought exporting was the most important PURPOSE of Globalism. If exporting actually was the most important PURPOSE of Globalism, his request would have been answered massively. Networks would have rushed to build new commercial SW stations so they could carry advertising for exported products.
Nope. Never happened. Why? BECAUSE EXPORTING WAS NEVER THE PURPOSE OF GLOBALISM.
We had always been an active exporter. As Globalism grew stronger, we switched from exporter to importer, and lost our industries and skills.
Globalists required America to be the CONSUMER, not the PRODUCER. Globalism serves the bankers, who must be the ONLY PRODUCER. Banks manufacture "money" through debt, and consumers buy stuff from OTHER COUNTRIES. Obviously consumers need to have some kind of income, but the income that arises from REAL VALUE MANUFACTURING is the gateway drug for the HORRIBLE SIN OF SAVING, which is a fate worse than death for Globalists.Labels: Askedanswered, skill-estate
In 2015 alone, 52,000 people died of overdoses in America, the majority of them from opioids. This represents the highest number of overdose deaths ever recorded in our country. Each day we are losing more than 140 Americans to overdoses. Millions more are struggling with opioid addiction.Human facts:
As we think about pain, we must not forget the types of pain that can hurt the most but are often the hardest to treat — the pain of loneliness and despair, of feeling unloved or unvalued. The pain of living with a broken heart. Today’s epidemic is worse than drug crises we’ve seen before. But, at its core, it’s just the latest chapter in the story of the human condition — of man’s fallen nature and our search for meaning and purpose in a broken world. The problem today isn’t simply that it’s too easy for people to access highly addictive drugs, though this is certainly true. The deeper problem is that, for many of our fellow citizens, it’s too difficult to access the relationships and institutions — like family, faith, community and work — that make life worth living and the pursuit of happiness possible. Across America, the bonds of family, faith, work and community are fraying and fracturing. Detached from these crucial sources of happiness, many are driven to drugs and then caught in cycles of hopelessness and addiction.This speech has been ignored by "both" "sides" of the media, because it's not about RUSSIANAGGRESSIONHACKERMEDDLINGINTERFERING. It's about our own self-destruction, laid raw and bare. I don't know if the steps proposed by Price will make much difference. We still need a complete rebuild of our economy, eliminating finance and restoring industry. Price doesn't have control over that side of policy. The people who do control it are the same Tribe who have been controlling it since 1989. During the few days when Hillary was pretending to be "Trump", s/he made some noises about jobs, but s/he never even promised to break the bankers.

In the web era we are sneakily but quickly moving toward the Jap model. Because cellphones were based on the wired phone system, they were paid and licensed 'utility connections' rather than unlicensed 'receivers'. Thus we no longer have the privilege of passive listening. BUT we're not getting the basic relationship of a rented connection either. When you pay for an AC power connection, you don't expect the AC to be modulated by advertising that forces its way into all of your light bulbs and heaters. With cellphones we're paying for zero privilege and total censorship, and we're forced to endure advertising at the same time.Broadcasting through modulated AC didn't happen, but it came a lot closer than I thought. In 1924 power companies were already using the wires for internal dispatching via modulated carriers:
In that case the carrier system was adapted into a transmitter for airborne radio.
The idea of wired radio was ... um ... in the air at that time, and was even tried out:
General Squier, the resident genius of the Signal Corps, was pushing wired radio as an environment where advertising would be permitted:
Note that Squier proposed a separate channel for advertising, which seems absurd now. It wasn't absurd then. Newspapers had (and still have!) separate PAGES for advertising. If you want to see ads, you turn to the ad section. A radio newspaper would work the same way. Squier also proposed a separate channel "for the women", which would get him tortured and hanged as a Russian MEDDLINGINTERFERINGHACKER now.
Advertising on the ether was uncomfortable and 'voluntarily banned' as WFBM's license application shows:
Clearly they knew the expected response.
Why was it unfashionable? The ether was considered a public resource like a park or a street. We still consider advertising on parks or streets to be crass if not illegal, and we still have court cases about advertising on public buses. Wires were owned by the utility, which could use its output for advertising just as a printer can send out advertising in newspapers.
For radio the discomfort was already disappearing in 1924, as the easily used phrase 'sell time' reveals. Selling time was a brand new concept, never done before in any medium. Selling space in newspapers or billboards was familiar. Broadcasting was only four years old, but NYC admen had already switched dimensions, and the rest of the trade followed along.
When wired TV started in 1965, it was pushed with the OPPOSITE expectation. Pay TV was going to be a subscription service, and your direct payment would protect you from all advertising. Again the expectation failed. Cable TV has just as much advertising as ether TV, often more.
And of course the same sequence happened with the web. In the original implementation as Compuserve, you were paying for a wired service with no advertising. After Berners-Lee "invented" the system that already existed, you were still paying but you also got the privilege of unstoppable advertising and total surveillance.
= = = = =
Question: Considering the later use of wired radio by tyrants from Stalin to Jobs, was Squier trying to sneak in a hard-wired propaganda channel? Based on other stuff I've read about him, I doubt it. Hoover, lending support to the idea, was definitely dreaming about central control. He was Wilson's successor as the champion of globalism.

An environmentalist group sued Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke Thursday, saying Congress illegally expanded its power by suspending an Interior Department rule banning the hunting of bears and wolves in Alaska wildlife refuges.In other words, MAKING A LAW is unconstitutional. The logic is simple. Congress can't make laws and the executive can't enforce them. Only black-robed genocidists acting as agents of Soros can make and enforce laws. Soros must be absolute emperor, with no controls or checks on his infinite genocidal evil. Soros is the universe. The universe is Soros.
Taking Sarewitz seriously suggests that values, interests, and interpretive frames should be at the center of policy formation. Here, the march organizers offer little help. As they portray the world, there are only two kinds of people: pro-science and anti-science. Likewise, there are only two ways of acting: on the basis of science—facts, truth, data, evidence—or unscientifically, in accordance with ideology, self-interest, or mere caprice. “Political decision-making that impacts the lives of Americans and the world at large,” the march website declares, “should make use of peer-reviewed evidence and scientific consensus, not personal whims and decrees.”Peer review and consensus ARE personal whims and decrees of the worst type. Both are determined by a hereditary monarchy within each discipline.
Evidence-based policy is important, and science should certainly play a role in politics. Yet more and better data is hardly enough to ensure equality and justice. Societies employ science in accordance with their leading values, interests, and power structures. If March for Science participants want science to advance the causes of equality and justice, they will need to help create a society in which those values predominate.Sounds halfway sensible. You need to understand how the system works if you want it to work for your benefit. Parkinson's Laws, as interpreted for science by CP Snow. But the goal is still strictly counterscientific. Equality and justice are opposites, and equality is a perfectly anti-scientific goal. The only way to achieve total equality is total death, and SCIENCE is working amazingly hard and fast toward total death. When you examine purpose, you find that government and SCIENCE are opposite. A functional government must first of all SERVE THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY. It must use negative feedback to balance the interests of various factions, and it must allow smaller modules to operate with their own feedback. A government must also recognize that PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT in ways that often correlate with genes, which means that modules must also correlate geographically with genes. The outermost module should help the inner modules to protect their contents against aggressors and invaders and criminals, and shouldn't otherwise interfere in their inner dealings. This is a perfectly scientific (lc) concept, used constantly in biology and engineering and programming. Life works this way, and every complex manmade device works this way. SCIENCE serves nobody at all. SCIENCE is a pack of delusional maniacs who can't perceive ANYTHING outside the screeching voices in their own heads. The voices in SCIENCE'S head are driving SCIENCE toward total slaughter. The biggest project in SCIENCE is LHC, which is EXPLICITLY DESIGNED TO OBLITERATE THE UNIVERSE. Other favored projects are designed to kill large numbers of innocent people. "Global Warming" kills poor people to increase the wealth of bankers and the power of Michael Mann. "Endangered Species" wipes out ranchers and forests and entire states through wildfires and floods. Embryonic Stem Cells kills lots of unborn babies for no gain at all. Economics impoverishes entire countries to enrich a few psychopaths. In other words, SCIENCE is the most perfectly criminal organization ever imagined. A sane government must protect its people from aggressive criminals, including SCIENCE.

The highest court in Massachusetts confirmed the dismissal Wednesday evening of more than 20,000 drug cases tied to a now-incarcerated chemist. Annie Dookahn pleaded guilty back in 2013 to doctoring the results of upwards of 34,000 drug tests while working at the Hinton State Laboratory — amounting to one in six of the criminal drug cases tried in Massachusetts between 2003 and 2012.The actual consequences of this reverasl** are minor, since Mass effectively decriminalized possession a long time ago. Only a few of those cases involved jail time; those few were professional criminals who were violating lots of laws all the time. The vast majority of simple possession cases were fines, and most of the defendants didn't care about getting their money back. Cops and criminals are vastly more scientific than "scientists". Cops arrest people for visible and observable actions, and criminals know what they were visibly and observably doing. Still, this "chemist" got away with intentionally falsifying everything for 10 years. The prosecutors were able to cite the tests because the tests were "science". Why aren't they also in jail? It's simple. Experts are paid to be wrong. ** Footnote: Mistyped, decided to leave it that way! Slef-explanatroy tpyo.

A pocket-size transistor radio with MW/LW bands. Note the description: "Made to the highest Russian space-age standard." True or not, the description tells us that British consumers saw Russian electronics in a positive light.
Brits weren't following the official American line at that time. Our propaganda "informed" us constantly that Russian technology was hopelessly primitive, and we constantly heard about exploding TVs, useless cars, and so on.
Was an American transistor radio made to the highest American space-age standard? Nope. We had abandoned solid-state electronics to the Japs by 1960.
As I've found through buying and examining old Soviet stuff on Ebay, the Brit narrative was right. Soviet radios were made in Russia by Russians, and their engineering and manufacturing standards were excellent.

He's aiming to get state funding to re-equip Cold War-era fallout shelters.This is obviously being done for stupid reasons. LoPresti is simply trying to associate Trump with Russia. Regardless of intention, it's a good move. PROTECTING YOUR OWN PEOPLE IS ALWAYS THE RIGHT THING TO DO. America failed to protect our own people in the '60s, while Russia and China did a much better job. Aside from basic morality, it's good strategy. When you feel cornered you're more inclined to strike hard and fast, hoping to kill the enemy before he can get you. When you feel protected you have time and space to respond more rationally.

North Idaho College has been awarded a $482,582 grant by the Idaho Department of Labor to train more than 200 workers in the wood products manufacturing industry. The two-year grant is a partnership with Lewis-Clark State College and five wood products manufacturing companies in North Idaho. The positions will pay wages ranging from $15 to $25 per hour, plus employer-assisted medical benefits. The funds will be used to address skill gaps for high-wage, high-demand occupations in the forest products industry and increase the employment and wages of Idaho workers in mostly rural areas. The project also supports the Apprenticeship Idaho program, which expands innovative apprenticeships into high-growth occupations and industries.Excellent. This is what colleges SHOULD be doing. Some states have been SERVING THEIR OWN PEOPLE for a long time, before Trump briefly and cynically pretended to be "pro-American".

Pulling out some of the text:
Many radio companies found it profitable to indulge in the gentle pastime of issuing stock. Indeed, in many instances the radio business proved more or less a secondary consideration, with the ... executives mainly interested in how the stock fared. ...

Erdogan's approach to Russia is sort of twitchy, but Putin seems to handle it. More importantly, Erdogan is protecting the PEOPLE of Turkey from Soros. The people recognize his resonance and resonate in harmony.
Later note: Globalists are uniformly and predictably protesting the election, calling Erdogan an 'authoritarian'. This happens every fucking time. A leader who is confident that he RULES WITH THE CONSENT OF HIS PEOPLE calls an election. He wins. Globalists protest that the ruler WITH CONSENT OF HIS OWN PEOPLE is 'authoritarian', and want to undo the election for the sake of 'democracy'. By contrast, leaders who like to shout 'democracy' never call elections because underneath the shouting they know good and goddamn well that they DO NOT HAVE THE CONSENT OF THEIR PEOPLE.

I was listening last night to an episode of the old FBI radio show, featuring a couple of carny scammers setting up a crooked roulette wheel. One of them is connecting a newfangled electrical system with solenoids and relays, and the other one is grousing that the old mechanical system worked better.
FBI understands rackets because FBI is a racket to rig "terrorists". Like the younger dude in this episode, they're fully up to date with the latest relays and solenoids and twitters to insure that a "terrorist" hits the correct number.

A later version of the Westinghouse robot was shown at the '39 Worlds Fair. It's clear that the speech command system was not true speech recognition; it was just a Morse-like template picking up the rhythm of syllables and pauses.
Modern radio stations, including KHQ (now renamed and re-freq'd) typically have the Drive Time Zoo from 5 AM to 9 AM, but the traffic part is done at 8.
Was the workday shorter in 1928? For office and retail, yes. For other types of work, no. But that's not the important question.
The real question is who needed a road report. In 1928 most office workers and factory workers rode the streetcar or walked, so they didn't need radio to tell them about traffic. Now everyone drives, so everyone needs to know where the hazards and obstacles are.
Everyone? Well, no. Some people still ride the bus or walk, and radio still ignores those people just as it did in 1928. The bus system very recently installed its own real-time reporting system. Until last year, there was no immediate info.
More broadly, Who Is News For? The answer has ALWAYS been News Is For The Upper Class. Sponsors don't care about streetcar riders or bus riders or walkers, so news isn't shaped to answer our questions or fill our needs. I've noticed this for a long time but didn't connect both sides until now. I saw that news was mainly ABOUT the Insatiables but didn't realize that news is solely FOR the Insatiables.
Come to think of it, that's an ADVANTAGE for Deplorables. We're less likely to be phase-locked by the news because the news isn't trying to hook us.
