stocks, watchout
Watch the market closely there could be drop soon. Don't panic, there is money out there. Swine flu the cause of the pull back, can make you money there is a few stocks that could creep up over the next 2-3 months. NOVAVAX is 1 of those companies. NVAX stock has more than tripled in 3 days. I look for it to move up slowly today with a late surge. Novavax produces the flu vaccine and is the fastest its vaccine, it is already being developed. Catch, It hasn't been approved. They are working with the CDC to get approved quickly. No matter what happens the stock will go up. Lets just hope it doesn't get bad.

Fly Over: White House Military Office Terrorizes New York
White House Military Officer Louis Caldera approved the mission which allowed two F-16s and a Boeing 747 that resembles Air Force One, to fly over New York.
The Boeing, flying at low altitudes around Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty, appeared to be being chased by the F-16s. This is the area where the World Trade Center once stood.
Caldera claims steps were taken to notify the state and local authorities that they would be conducting this photo-op mission on Monday, along with a note that read,
"information in this document shall not be released to the public or the media".
Office building's were evacuated and confused 911 dispatcher's were flooded with calls as panicked citizen's feared the worse. It has not been that long ago that many of these same people witnessed the event's of September 11th first hand.
The ignorance of Caldera and the military allowing this mission to happen is astounding. Caldera has shown that he is in no position to "approve" orders after this unnecessary and potentially dangerous act that caused so much confusion and fear to our citizens. At this point the least Caldera, and anyone involved, could do is resign from their positions immediately.
It is a comfort to know that Obama is also furious over this matter and will take steps to assure this does not happen again.

swine flu
Swine Flu. Get use to those words, you will be hearing them often.
It seems to have originated in Central America.
Originally thought to have been contracted from pigs. It has been spreading from human contact. It is transmitted the same way as the normal flu. Except this flu is deadly. It has claimed the over a hundred life's and this is just the beginning.
In 1917-18 Spanish Influenza claimed more than 2 million life's. In 1957 the Asian Flu pandemic spread from China to the US affecting school children. In 1968 the Hong Kong Flu caused 34,000 deaths in the US.
This strain has shown some resistant to antibiotics. Fortunately, we are far more advanced today.The CDC is currently looking into ways to treat this situation. One biotechnology company, Novavax, is working on vaccines that are not egg-based. (where vaccines are created using chicken egg's in production) Instead they are using a cell culture system. This would speed production and allow the vaccine to be a closer match to the virus strain, making it more effective and safer.
Remember to alway's wash and sanitize your hands, cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze and don't go to work/school sick. As of right now there are several cases in the US. Everyone needs to be safe.

Torture persecution
Should we prosecute those who ordered detainees to be tortured?
The recent evidence released by Obama proves we did in fact torture over the past eight years.
Water boarding and different psychological fear based tortures are among the few outlined in the memo's.
The legal memo's also refer to one detainee, Kalied Shake Mohamad who had been water boarded over 200 times.
Mohamad was one of the main conspirators behind 9-11.
Many on the left are screaming for blood over the newly released information.
President Obama has made it clear that there will be no indictments for soldiers carrying out torture practices that they were ordered to perform.
The lawyers who wrote the legal memos claim the methods we were using were not torture.
Despite how absurd their opinions were they broke no laws, since this was just their opinion.
The buck ultimately stops with the president, vice president, his cabinet, advisers and staff.
There is no way in hell the United States, any other country or legal body can try the executive branch of the United States. There is classified information strategies, tactics, knowledge and general practices of operations that would prevent any trial from taking place. It would be a legal nightmare.
Also, doing so would tie up our entire judicial system. It would be a huge distraction that would be prolonged for years to come. This is one case that may never be resolved completely. This could cause serious division among Americans. The crippling effects would be devastating. This is not a time that we can afford to waste energy chasing our tail.
There is no good that could come from indicting G. W. Bush, Cheney or the rest of the idiots that got us into this mess. Although they deserve to be punished for their actions. The truth is America voted twice to elect G.W. and we knew what we were getting. Our hands are also dirty. Although I did not vote for Bush on either occasion we are all Americans. We all share the responsibility in one way or another. If for no other reason than the fact that these actions were committed in our name.
The thing is you can't change the past, what's done is done. It's unfortunate that President Bush chose to ignore the morals and standards that IS, America.
America has always promoted humane treatment for prisoners. In fact we demanded it. It's in our constitution, it defines our freedom and our ideals. There is no good ending to this chapter of American history.
Our focus should be on the future. We have a new administration whose plate is absolutely full. If your upset with our government, get involved.
"We do not torture"
That's something we can never say again.

Obama handshake. Sign of change or weakness?
"It's unlikely that as a consequence of me shaking hands or having a polite conversation with Mr. Chavez that we are endangering the strategic interests of the United States," Obama said.
I agree despite the criticism surrounding the Obama-Chavez handshake. I think this in fact makes us look stronger. It shows a side of America that other countries have not seen before.
What are the arguments? Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, an anti-American dictator, should be shunned. Obama should have walked out. This makes America look weak.
Bush has also been photographed shaking hands with Chavez. The right aparently didn't have a problem with that.
Chavez has said “It’s a policy of permanent aggression, of war, of terrorism by the US empire. That’s the great guilty one, the great Satan.” He also referred to Bush as "the devil"
In light of the controversy, Chavez is showing that he is now willing to send an ambassador to the US. During the Bush administration Chavez turned a US ambassador away without a single word. Change?

Pirates of the Indian Ocean
Doesn't have the same ring to it as, Pirates of the Caribbean. But the east coast of Africa is an absolute hotbed for pirates. Since my name is William Turner I believe the I can help. I have an idea of how to stop the pirates.
The US Navy Seals could sail a ship disguised as a merchant ship into the port pretending to carry a precious cargo. Allow this false info to be spread. Then make the ship appear extremely vulnerable. This should be done over and over until they strike. Like fishing for pirates. When they take the bait blow there ass away. Continue this method sailing under our allies flags until the pirates are dead. The news would spread spooking other would be pirates.
It seems to me we over complicate everything. Fear is a great deterrent and our greatest fear, is the fear of the unknown.
The question is do we(USA) want to solve our problems or are pretending. Then the next question would be.
Why?

Steven Colbert vs John Stewart
If you are like me you watch your share of Comedy Central and you know John Stewart is the king of political satire. But has his protege surpassed him for the crown?
Steven Colbert is a pure genius his whit is scary. Constant comebacks and insults is his fortae. But his gift of making prominent people look stupid is his greatest asset.
Both comedians are funny but they also make a lot of since.
I wish the media wasn't lazy and would actually investigate whats happening to our country. There's 100 years worth of stories there. But they just read a wire and ask the talking heads what they think. No one cares what these a- wholes think I want facts and it's shame that I have to get my info from Comedy Central. But Colbert has more respect Than Pat Buchanan ( he worked for Nixon) he constantly makes comparisons to his experiences in that administration, that was 40 years ago.
Hey NBC, FOX, ABC, CBS, CNN, all of you SUCK. How about breaking a News Story. The Bloggers can handle the opinions.

Caveat emptor
Sounds too good to be true? Buyer beware...... Most likely it is.
Over the past eight years our economy has really took a nosedive. Thanks GWBush! Every day seems to bring new layoffs across America. With so many struggling today, the uncertainty of tomorrow weighs on us all.
Desperate and with little hope, many Americans have started looking to others means of employment and income.
Yes, it would be awesome if I could work from home. Be here for the kids, work when I want to.
Or perhaps a government grand. I could start up a small business, be my own boss. Unfortunately, %95 of these programs are scams.
That "How to submit your grant" CD that cost only $1.99? The one that never showed up and a month latter my account was drained CD that many Americans have purchased. Yep, that's the one I'm talking about. Along with millions of other scams.
You see, there are two kinds of people. Those that need it and get creative looking for new ways to get it. And those that know there's people looking for it and take advantage of them.
What do these people have in common? They both have a need to fill.
Why do scams work? Is it because people are stupid or gullible? NO, its not.
These people that pull off successful scams can be incredibly clever.
Getting your money is what they're thinking about. Constantly.
It's the same in all situation's that pose a risk to those who think of it "sometimes".
From 1-800 numbers to web sites. These people have their act together. Waiting for you to get online, pick up your phone or check your mail. Do yourself a favor, check it out first.
I received a call recently. The woman says she is going to mail me a CD. This includes all the information I need to write and submit a request for a government grant. It only cost's $1.99. Not a lot right, who can't afford that. But, I haven't asked for this information so why is she calling me? I say I'm not interested, at this point she tries to talk me into it. Telemarketers uh! you know how they are. I am forced to hang up on her mid sentence. A little while latter the phone is ringing again. Same person. The next day I receive several more calls. Now, I want to know who this is. This prompts me to conduct a reverse phone look-up. Los Angeles? HUH? I also get a name, not expecting much I punch it and the number in the search bar. Turns out these people calling me have been calling alot of people. They even managed to get the credit card Numbers of some of them.
I also found out that I can call the number back. Turns out the only way to stop them from calling you is to call them. Unceasingly and angry for an hour or two.
While I felt this was obvious, some scams may not be. Keep in mind the %95!!
Some of those that could fool even the most suspicious person include...
Fake downloads. A screen pops up warning that you picked up a virus. You must now download a anti-virus to get rid of it.
Fake web pages. They look like the real thing until you enter your information.
E-Mails. You open them up and out pops a virus.
Scholarship, Real estate, Health care, Lottery, Identity theft, Phishing scams, Hoaxes, Fraud, Work from home.
Now you don't have to freak out, here are a few things that you can do.
Always! Always check the company/person/site out before making a move.
If you are pressured to "Act Now!" without being able to think about it then DON'T do it.
Use some protection when surfing. Personally, I use Firefox Mozzilla's Web of Trust tool. I can see what sites are BS and which are authentic.
If you do get scammed, report it. There's likely no chance for you to recover your losses doing this. But you may prevent this from happening to others. www.ic3.gov/

Obama, Arives at G20 amid protest
President Barack Obama landed in Europe earlier today. He has a full itinerary, including the much anticipated meeting with, Queen Elizabeth. Obama makes the 11th sitting American President to have the pleasure of meeting Her Majesty. The last, President GWB kissed the queens hand which is a no-no. Lets hope Obama has improved his own etiquette. He recently shocked a marine, as he stood guard near Air Force One, by shaking his hand instead of the customary salute. He also gave British Prime Minister a DVD box set as a gift. Not only was this a lame gift, they will not play on British DVD players.
Obama has bigger fish to fry. No disrespect to Her Majesty, but the worlds economy is in the dumps. France is demanding a world financial regulation body. Which, will not happened. The US can not allow our financial system to be regulated out side our borders. A NWO of any kind is not acceptable by no means.
Obama also has needs. He wants Europe to match our stimulus package, considering most of the money we spend benefits the rest of the world. This has the potential to be huge for our economic recovery.
There is also a large protest taking place at the G-20 summit. The protesters are mainly fired up over the bailouts in England. One small group stormed a bank and set it on fire.
The fire was extinguished very quickly. These types of protest are common in Europe. I am surprised we haven't seen this type of behavior in the US considering the amount of corruption in our own financial industry.
update
( Obama gave the Queen an I-Pod.) Will someone please inform the President he lives in a museum, all he has to do is close his eyes and pick something. Rich white people, like old shit.
