This video is a quick 15 minute overview of the current earthquake plots -- a short review of Yellowstone Charts and the PNW (pacific northwest) charts -- also a look at Europe, Central America, S. America, Asia, and the Pacific Ring of fire. The North American craton -- called Laurentia -- is showing further sings of movement -- be aware if you live in the USA -- long overdue for a 6.0M+ earthquake on the west coast between Baja Mexico and the fresh lavic fields in the ocean off shore of Oregon / British Columbia / Washington State... as well as ANYWHERE along the edge of the craton...This means WA, ID, MT, WY, UT, CO, NM, TX, OK, AR, MO, IL, KY, TN, MS, AL, VA, OH, and New england northeast towards Quebec / Ontario Canada. Europe -- same scenario -- anywhere along the edge of the north european plate -- north of the Alps.. on a diagonal line spanning northwest from the Canaries to Poland. North Europe.. the english channel north past Iceland through the sea of Norway. Central and south america -- Watch the edge of the pacific plate -- hot spots are south Mexico -- and central chile/peru. Watch New Zealand, Vanuatu, Indonesia, Philippines, India to Afghanistan in particular. After re-reading the above..to me, it seems most places on the planet are in a heavy state of movement -- all areas have their specific hot spots --always have a plan and be prepared -- just in case. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) -- The U.N.'s highest court confirmed Friday that Germany has legal immunity from being sued in foreign courts by victims of World War II Nazi atrocities. The International Court of Justice said that Italy's Supreme Court violated Germany's sovereignty in 2008 by judging that an Italian civilian, Luigi Ferrini, was entitled to reparations for his deportation to Germany in 1944 to work as a slave laborer in the armaments industry.
Mail Online - A massive victory against Monsanto and genetically engineered seeds has been achieved in the United Kingdom today. Monsanto has announced a total withdrawal from the UK, shuttering its Cambridge-based wheat production operation. UK newspaper Daily Mail was instrumental in promoting opposition against Monsanto through its "Frankenstein Foods" educational campaign.... Monsanto is also seeking to sell off crop-breeding centres in France, Germany and the Czech Republic.
Washington Post - Defense Secretary Leon Panetta believes there is a strong likelihood that Israel will strike Iran in April, May or June — before Iran enters what Israelis described as a “zone of immunity” to commence building a nuclear bomb. Very soon, the Israelis fear, the Iranians will have stored enough enriched uranium in deep underground facilities to make a weapon — and only the United States could then stop them militarily.
New York Times - Published: November 30, 1992 - A draft Central Intelligence Agency report on Iran concludes that the country is making progress on a nuclear arms program and could develop a nuclear weapon by 2000, senior Administration officials say.
National Journal - Defense Secretary Leon Panetta’s comment while en route to a NATO conference in Brussels -- that the U.S. would end its combat mission in Afghanistan in 2013, a year earlier than thought -- surprised key U.S. allies, alarmed many Afghans, and forced the White House to spend more than a day trying to walk it back.
RT - Russia's Ambassador to the United Nations Vitaly Churkin said an embargo on arms supplies to Syria is out of the question -- along with any resolution that could threaten to aggravate conflict in the country.
AFP - Four British Islamists inspired by a former al-Qa’ida leader have admitted in court to plotting to blow up the London Stock Exchange in 2010. The men belonged to a group of fundamentalists who plotted a spate of mail bomb attacks during the run-up to Christmas that year and discussed launching a “Mumbai-style” atrocity, Woolwich Crown Court in London heard. Mohammed Chowdhury, 21, and Shah Rahman, 28, both from London, admitted preparing for acts of terrorism by planning to plant an improvised explosive device (IED) in the toilets of the London Stock Exchange.
MSNBC _ Greece needs about an extra €15 billion ($20 billion) to get its debt down to manageable levels — and the rest of 17-country eurozone is being asked to help foot the bill.
Kurt Nimmo - TEPCO reported today that more than eight tons of radioactive water has leaked from the number four reactor at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear plant after a frozen pipe burst. The electric company said none of the water reached outside of the stricken reactor containment building. TEPCO failed to winterize the reactor’s cooling system and this oversight led to fractures in pipes due to frozen water inside, according to reports.
China recently suspended the distribution of genetically modified rice within its commercial food supplies.... This action helps to preserve the sovereignty and safety of their food supply, something that largely must still be addressed in our own country. In the United States GMO foods are not only accepted by loose regulation standards, but are not even labeled appropriately.
Epoch Times - Nearly one thousand Chinese shopkeepers lost their businesses in the early hours of Chinese New Year’s Day. Under the cover of firecrackers, a mob hired by a local real estate developer, backed by local officials, turned an entire shopping mall in the southern metropolis of Shenzhen into rubble–without any prior public announcement or notification of shop owners.... When people woke up the next day, they found half of the market collapsed, with jewelry, cell phone, shoe, and grocery stores buried under the debris.
Corporate Accountability International - A partnership quietly launched in October with funding from the World Bank, Coca-Cola and Veolia will report on progress towards its stated mission to “transform the water sector” by establishing “new normative approaches to water governance” that put the private sector in the driver’s seat in water management. Calling itself the Water Resources Group (WRG) and headed by Nestlé Chairman Peter Brabeck-Letmathei, the corporation has already targeted the countries of Mexico, Jordan, India and South Africa to “shape and test governance processes” that would make water privatization more feasible and profitable.

WASHINGTON (AP) - With members of Congress convinced their political survival depends on their image, the House is wasting no time in considering a Senate-passed bill that would ban insider trading by lawmakers and thousands of executive branch officials. Stock trades would have to be posted online within 30 days. The Senate showed a rare display of bipartisanship Thursday to pass the bill 96-3, and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor said it would be before the House next week. President Barack Obama repeated a pledge to sign it immediately.
The Obama administration's decision requiring church-affiliated employers to cover birth control was bound to cause an uproar among Roman Catholics and members of other faiths, no matter their beliefs on contraception. The regulation, finalized a week ago, raises a complex and sensitive legal question: Which institutions qualify as religious and can be exempt from the mandate.
RT - For exposing the US military’s mismanagement of body parts at the Armed Forces’ mortuary in Dover, Delaware, whistle blowing almost cost four civilian workers an arm and a leg. An investigation has revealed that those that exposed the misconduct were disciplined for doing so.
Press TV- According to the StopWarOnIran website, “No war, no sanctions, no intervention, no assassinations against Iran” will be the demand of the coordinated demonstrations which will be held across the US on February 4, 2012.

(Warning graphic material) The United States is using depleted uranium in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan because the deadly weapons are inexpensive and abundant, a professor tells Press TV. "It's cheap. It's cheap and plentiful. Depleted uranium is a by-product of uranium enrichment after a certain percent," Lawrence Davidson, professor at West Chester University, told Press TV. The US government has used depleted uranium arms on humans in its two recent wars, at least 1,000 tons in the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan and 2,400 tons in the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

Police and the Transportation Security Administration say Alexandra Schmid took the cash from a passenger's jacket as it went along an X-ray conveyor belt around 8 p.m. Wednesday in JFK's Terminal 4. Police spokesman Al Della Fave (fahv) says surveillance video showed Schmid wrapping the money in a plastic glove and taking it to a bathroom.
Intel Hub - According to Napolitano, no credible terror threats will interrupt the face off between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots in the massive stadium Sunday. Typically security of the game is left up to the local authorities. However, in recent times, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has become much more involved with security of any major event.

ELKO, Nev. (AP) -- Republican Rep. Ron Paul railed against the federal government during campaign stops in Nevada on Thursday, saying states are in the best position to resolve conflicts over the management of wild horses and roads on public lands.
Business Insider - The usually all-business candidate interrupted a press conference on the economy this afternoon to surprise his wife Carol with a huge bouquet of flowers — and a big hug — to celebrate their 55th wedding anniversary. It was a surprisingly candid moment of marital bliss, particularly for a political event. Mrs. Paul seemed genuinely surprised by the gift, and her husband was clearly elated that he had pulled off the trick. He was practically blushing. See the video here.
Over 20 minute interview with Ron Paul in Nevada for "Face to Face with Jon Ralston" February 1st, 2012. Aired on several local NV news stations.
Ron Paul is a great man and this video shows he has been fighting for the American people for decades and will be there to end the tyranny of psychopathic criminals that have hijacked our great nation. This video exposes the Truth of Ron Paul.
Huffington Post - It took the DNC less than a day to turn Mitt Romney's comment that he's "not concerned about the very poor" into an attack ad. "I'm in this race because I care about Americans. I'm not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there. If it needs repair, I'll fix it," Romney told CNN Wednesday morning. "I'm not concerned about the very rich, they're doing just fine. I'm concerned about the very heart of the America, the 90 percent, 95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling."

Think Progress Feb 2, 2012 - Bank Transfer Day and the Occupy Movement have received tremendous attention, and for the first time we have market research data to measure the impact on the financial services industry. Javelin’s research estimates that 5.6 million U.S. adults with a banking relationship changed providers in the past 90 days. Of those switchers, 610,000 US adults (or 11% of the 5.6 million) cited Bank Transfer Day as their reason and actually moved their accounts from a large to a small institution.

In another indication of the difficulty President Obama's reelection campaign faces, only 36 percent of likely voters grade the administration's handling of the economy at good or excellent, according to a new Rasmussen poll.... Still, Democratic officials say that they see a positive trend built on slightly better unemployment and housing numbers that could end up helping Obama in his reelection.
RT - Presidential campaigns cost money and the more you have the better your chances are at getting in the White House. Hollywood has been known to support the Democratic Party with millions of campaign dollars. While Californians are left on the streets homeless and hungry, many believe the money should be used to help those in need. George Hemminger, founder of Survive and Thrive TV, joins us with more on how the Golden State should spend its money.
Paul Craig Roberts - The charts below come from John Williams Hyperinflation Report, January 25, 2012. The commentary is supplied by me. Here is the chart of real average weekly earnings deflated by the US government’s own measure of inflation, which as I pointed out in my recent column, Economics Lesson 1, understates true inflation.
In his Saturday column in the New York Times, Pulitzer-prize winning reporter James B. Stewart tallied up his tax rate and found it to be a shocking 74 percent of taxable income.... After some research, he determined that his personal situation is “a near-perfect storm of punitive tax policies.” He lives in one of the highest tax districts in the country (New York City), earns his income (rather than getting it from capital gains or carried interest, a la Romney), doesn’t have a significant mortgage deduction and pays an unincorporated business tax on some of his income, like book royalties.
Yesterday, ThinkProgress’ Tanya Somanader noted that Apple Inc. is breaking its profit record and sitting on nearly $100 billion in cash, while its Chinese laborers toil in unsafe and even deadly conditions. Here on the other side of the Atlantic, another huge company has decided to lock out its Canadian workers in an attempt to force them to accept pay cuts, even as it pulls in its own record profits

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Snow has been missing in action for much of the U.S. the last couple months. But it's not just snow. It's practically the season that's gone AWOL. "What winter?" asked Mike Halpert, deputy director of the National Weather Service's Climate Prediction Center. For the Lower 48, January was the third-least snowy on record, according to the Global Snow Lab at Rutgers University. Records for the amount of ground covered by snow go back to 1967.
Intel Hub February 2, 2012 - The tests, conducted by the Enviroreporter, show levels much higher than normal background levels that are most likely coming from the Fukushima nuclear disaster. It is clear that, despite a large scale misinformation campaign conducted by various governments and sock puppets throughout the internet, an increase in radiation HAS been seen in the United States after the Japan Fukushima nuclear disaster.
US Today - Scientists have known for decades that hidden under those impressive vistas at sites such as Death Valley and Yellowstone National Park are magma pools that under the right conditions can trigger explosive eruptions. Now, new research is changing scientists' understanding of the timing of those eruptions, and prompting them to call for greater monitoring of sites to help save lives when the next big volcano explodes.
Geo-engineering' is the ultimate in pursuit of high risk 'techno-fixes' to the world's big ecological problems. Its proponents want to use technology to attempt to 're-engineer' the environment, for example by fertilising the ocean to produce huge algal blooms that supposedly will absorb carbon dioxide, or by polluting the upper atmosphere with nanoparticles in an attempt to deflect UV radiation and stop global warming....

(NaturalNews) British researchers from Queen Mary at the University of of London have published the result of a study in the Journal of Neuroscience that explains how omega-3 fatty acids play a significant role in preventing and protecting nerves from injury. The research focused on peripheral nerve cells which transmit signals between the brain and the spinal cord to the rest of the body. Omega-3 fats from food sources including sardines, salmon, walnuts and flax seeds provide for decreased cell death from injury and may offer significant protection against future damage.
(NaturalNews) A new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) has revealed that bone mineral density scans, which check for early signs of the bone disease osteoporosis, are often conducted too frequently on many people, and in many cases may not even be necessary.... "It's an expenditure of time, it's exposure to radiation, and it's a cost," said Dr. Virginia Moyer, head of the US Preventive Services Task Force, a government panel responsible for establishing testing guidelines, concerning bone mineral density tests. "And there's no reason to expose yourself to any risks if there's going to be no benefit."
(NaturalNews) There is a very interesting study on this topic that was recently featured in Forbes Magazine. Basically, a group of scientists studied lab rats over a span of forty days and one group of rats ate raw foods, while the other ate cooked foods. It was so interesting how the body masses of the rats ranged between the two groups. The conclusion to the experiment was that raw food consumption does result in weight loss.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Stressed out by flying? Travelers in Northern California can now find their inner calm in the Yoga Room at San Francisco International Airport. The quiet, dimly lit studio officially opened last week in a former storage room just past the security checkpoint at SFO's Terminal 2.

(NaturalNews) Such items as "Gates using his money to save lives ... etc" have been appearing in several news outlets, including ABC news (2). Meanwhile, items that question Gates' "philanthropic" endeavors are muffled or marginalized. Those endeavors deal with vaccinations, sterilization, and GMOs. These are depopulation favorites. The Gates Foundation donated $1.5 million to ABC's News Project "Be the change; Save a Life," extolling the virtues of ensuring Africans don't starve. The NY Times mentioned Gates as the principal private funding source and adviser for world food policy and agricultural development.

(NaturalNews) According to Dr. Brownstein, his clinical practice has revealed that just about everyone suffering with Thyroid dysfunction has severe iodine deficiency. But, it's not enough to just eat salt or supplement with iodine. You MUST be sure to get the right kind of iodine to produce a positive result. Have you been tested properly? Dr. Brownstein says the commonly-used, spot iodine (skin) test is useless! It's better to get a "spot urinary iodine test" - which test your morning urine to see how much iodine is present. Or, you can take a "24 hour iodine loading test" - which give you a pretty good idea how much iodine has been excreted and retained. Bottom line: get tested and consult a qualified, holistic medical professional.
(NaturalNews) Cardiac computed tomography (CT) and other medical scans sometimes involve injecting a radioactive iodide dye into the bloodstreams of patients in order to highlight the produced images. But a new study published in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine has revealed that this radioactive dye can cause permanent thyroid damage, as well as cancer.
Nurses, who have been working without a contract since September 30th, went on a 24-hour strike outside Kaiser Permanente's Los Angeles Medical Center to protest salary and benefit cuts demanded by hospitals, a Press TV correspondent reported on Wednesday.

A controversial bill regarding retention of Internet records passed through committee and was approved for consideration by Congress in December. The Protecting Children from Internet Pornographers Act of 2011 would require Internet providers to retain archives of every subscriber’s online activity for up to 18 months, including phone records, credit-card numbers, websites visited and bank-account data. Max Ayalla, a senior from Kansas City, Kan., who works at Information Technology, said he’s worried about the information’s security. “If someone hacks into the data, it would be disastrous,” he said.
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency said special agents this week seized a total of 307 websites and snatched up 42,692 items of phony Super Bowl-related memorabilia along with other counterfeit items for a total take of more than $4.8 million - up from $3.72 million last year. Sixteen of the sites the agency shut down during this operation known as Fake Sweep, were illegally streaming live sporting telecasts over the Internet, including NFL games. Two hundred ninety-one website domain names were illegally selling and distributing counterfeit merchandise, ICE stated.

(NaturalNews) Crops are being sprayed with the essence of MSG, glutamic acid or free glutamates. Emerald BioAgriculture got EPA approval to allow use of their growth enhancer AuxiGro on crops in all states. They are trying to get approval for using AuxiGro on organic crops as well.... The USDA's certified organic seal only qualifies the method of agriculture used. The certification doesn't cover crops after they are harvested, and USDA certification offers no guarantee of the absence of GMO contamination or MSG.

The Chrysler’s apparent lack of appeal doesn’t necessarily reflect poorly on the commander in chief. It is difficult to sell a mass-market used car for a million dollars no matter who may have driven it. This one, with gray paint and interior, was about as dull as a Hemi-powered 300C could be.
