This Mountain On Mars Is Leaking Water

These dark lines, called recurring slope lineae (RSL) by planetary scientists, are some of the best visual evidence we have of liquid water existing on Mars today – although if RSL are the result of water it’s nothing you’d want to fill your astro-canteen with; based on the first appearances of these features in early Martian spring any water responsible for them would have to be extremely high in salt content.

What they don’t want you to know — the scam behind the oil industry

Now as the fractional reserve banking system and corrupt politicians inside the federal government have trampled the citizens of the United States into the ground one may be lucky where I live to find gas for any less than $2.79 per gallon. In fact, it’s typically over $2.30 on average and it’s not getting any cheaper.

Study: When companies pay low wages, taxpayers end up with the rest of the bill

Wallenbrock is among millions of working Americans whose low wages are supplemented by government support. Families in which at least one member is working now make up the vast majority of those enrolled in major public-assistance programs like Medicaid and food stamps, according to a new study. It’s a “hidden cost” of low-wage work, researchers say, and it costs taxpayers about $153 billion a year.

The New American Retirement Plan: Work Forever

The idea of retirement is a modern one especially when it comes to saving and having a nest egg. In the past, retirement was only a luxury afforded to a small number of wealthy families. The rest of the population was destined to work until they died. That may seem harsh but that is historical fact. After World War II the idea of mass retirement started to take hold.

How The US Government and US Military Became Murder, Inc.

The US military no longer does war. It does assassinations, usually of the wrong people. The main victims of the US assassination policy are women, children, village elders, weddings, funerals, and occasionally US soldiers mistaken for Taliban by US surveillance operating with the visual acuity of the definition of legal blindness.

The Revolution in Military Affairs has decapitated the US military, which no longer has the knowledge or ability or human tools to conduct war.

America Is No Longer A Republic Or A Democracy

The world of today is not the same world it was half a century ago. We have a new kind of money. We have a new economy. And we have a new kind of government. All have been transformed… in ways that few people have noticed and fewer still have understood.
Our job is to try to understand that story. Not in its entirety (that would be impossible)… but in its most gaudy outline and most sensational details. We’ve already spent much of our time, and much of yours, trying to figure out how our monetary system changed after Nixon ended the gold-backed currency standard in 1971.

“Government can have no more than two legitimate purposes,” wrote the 18th-century English political philosopher William Godwin, “the suppression of injustice against individuals within the community and the common defense against external invasion.”
But the US system of government – nourished by the almost unlimited credit that its money gives it – has swelled to a shape that would have been grotesque and unrecognizable to Godwin. To those who still maintain some romantic attachment to the ideals of the American Revolution, it is merely repulsive.
Did you realize that we no longer have a political system that can properly be called a republic or a democracy? Did you realize that voting is a waste of time because the system is rigged to favor powerful elite groups?

Ukrainian Martial Law Bill

Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has spoken in parliament (Verkhovna Rada) in favor of Bill 2451 “On the Legal Regime of Martial Law.” This paves the way for comprehensive curfews as well as the construction of internment camps for “citizens whose native country threatens or is already actively participating in aggression against Ukraine.”

Boycott, Divest and Sanction Corporations that Feed on Prisons

There are nearly 40 states that allow private corporations to exploit prison labor. And prison administrators throughout the country are lobbying corporations that have sweatshops overseas, trying to lure them into the prisons with guarantees of even cheaper labor and a total absence of organizing or coordinated protest.
Prisons in America are a hugely profitable business. And since profit is the only language the involved corporations know how to speak, we will have to speak to them in the language they understand. In New Jersey the first boycott will be directed against Global Tel Link, a private phone company that charges prisoners and their families exorbitant rates and that has a monopoly.

Australia denies benefits to parents who won’t vaccinate

Australians who refuse to vaccinate their children will no longer receive child care subsidies and family tax benefits, Prime Minister Tony Abbott announced on Sunday. The widely anticipated government crackdown comes as Australia sees an increase in the number of so-called vaccine objectors. “The choice made by families not to immunise their children is not supported by public policy or medical research nor should such action be supported by taxpayers in the form of child care payments,” Abbott said.

With Weapons Pouring In and Aid Locked Out, Yemeni Civilians ‘Willfully Abandoned’

Two weeks of a Saudi Arabia-led bombardment and siege on the impoverished nation of Yemen has bred a profound humanitarian crisis—marked by hundreds of civilian deaths and worsening food and water shortages. As the Saudi-led coalition blocks almost all food and medical aid from getting in, while bombing public infrastructure, residents and aid organizations warn that the worst is yet to come.

New Breakaway Republic Is Announced in Ukraine to Join Donetsk and Luhansk Republics

A group of residents in the region of Odessa, one of Ukraine’s largest cities, is trying to break away from the Ukrainian government that was formed after the coup in Kiev in February 2014.
As the first anniversary approaches of the 2 May 2014 massacre by U.S.-backed Ukrainian Government thugs against pamphleteers in Odessa’s Trade Unions Building, who had opposed the 22 February 2014 U.S. coup in Ukraine, there has been forming in Odessa a movement for complete independence from the U.S.-coup-imposed Ukrainian regime. Ukraine’s U.S.-imposed regime’s response is to crush this incipient movement before word of its existence can even get out to the rest of the world.

Land for the People: Alaska Passes Bill Returning State Land from Federal Control

All across the western states, a grass-roots movement has risen to reclaim states’ Constitutionally mandated public lands from federal government control.
Presently, resolutions and bills are in motion is Nevada, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, and now Alaska.
For decades, significant clashes between the western states and the federal government over public land jurisdiction and ownership have led states to press the issue concerning some 700 million acres of federally controlled ‘public lands’ which including national parks, national forests, and national monuments, environmental zones and other ‘protected areas’. Millions of residents in the western states believe that this land belong to the states, and that Washington DC must observe its own legal and Constitutional limitations as stipulated in Article One, Section 8, of the United States Constitution.
This battle is just beginning…

The U.S. Coast Guard is the tyrant of the sea!!!

Being the investigative type that I am, I already had background information about the U.S. coast guard sinking every boat that approached Ecuador, sight unseen. That's right, the U.S. Coast Guard put up a blockade off the coast of Ecuador, and sank every boat that approached that nation (this was going on a few years ago and was still going on when I talked to Nicholas).
The Coast guard also has been assigned to patrol the coasts of many other nations, invited or not. But when I spoke to Nicholas, I had only heard about the Coast Guard actually getting nasty with Ecuador. As it turned out, Ecuador was NOTHING compared to what the Coast Guard does elsewhere.
After I asked him about Ecuador, where he believed they were doing a GOOD JOB, I asked him what the Coast Guard does out on the open sea, and was blown away by where the conversation went from there. At no point did I ever express what I really felt about what he had to say, I just went along with it all, as if I agreed with his mission.
He went on to say how the Coast Guard does not just stick to the coast, that they patrol the oceans of the entire world, even the totally open international waters. He started talking about burning the boats they came across while out to sea. And what I have to say here is NOT in error or by mistake, I structured the conversation to cover every angle and leave no room for doubt.
I said, "What do you do when you come across a boat that is out to sea, in fully international waters, TOTALLY OUT OF AMERICA's JURISDICTION?" I picked a no man's land as an example, the equatorial region 2,000 miles south of Hawaii, where NO drug dealers would be likely to go, where there would ONLY be innocents.
He said, we board it. I said, but that's illegal. You have no jurisdiction in that region. He said, "That does not matter, because we are the U.S. and what is anyone going to do about it?"
I said, What happens when you go on a boat, and there are no drugs, and there is no smuggling going on, NOTHING, the people on the boat did NOTHING. He said, "we check their papers. If they are out to sea, and they do not have their papers in order, we take them off the boat, imprison them, and burn the boat. We cannot leave the boat just drifting out at sea. We HAVE TO burn it."
" I said, "Why arrest them if there is no crime occurring?" He said, "PAPERS ARE EVERYTHING. If they do not have them, we imprison them and take them back to the U.S., and burn the boat." I said, "Even if it is a multi million dollar yacht or sail boat?" and he said YES.
Then I said, Well, what happens if after being processed in the U.S. there was nothing wrong. He said, They get to go home. I said, Well, what about the boat? He said, it's their loss, we don't care.
I said, Well, If they leave from a home port, and are just out for a cruise, and are returning to that same home port, they would not need papers. He said, THAT DOES NOT MATTER. IF THAT IS THE STORY, WE STILL JAIL THEM, BURN THEIR BOAT, AND TAKE THEM BACK TO THE U.S.
And I made it very clear, I then asked him, SO, if you find a boat 50 miles off the coast of New Zealand, and the people on the boat do not have their documents in order, you burn the boat and take them back to the U.S., even though it would be obvious that they really probably are just out for a cruise and returning to New Zealand, where EVERYONE IN THE HARBOR WOULD RECOGNIZE THEM AND NEVER RAISE AN EYEBROW UPON THEIR RETURN, and HE SAID YES.

From the testimony of Nicholas, it is easy to see that the Coast Guard is now a tool of tyranny. The NSA tracks the boats, and the CIA then takes that info, gives the orders to the Coast Guard, which then goes out and gets rid of a doctor with a cure for cancer, a journalist with the goods on a scandal, an engineer who came up with a free energy device, and because the boats ALL GET BURNED UNTIL SUNK, these people vanish without a trace, while "out to sea" and the system of compartmentalized security clearances prevents ANYONE on a Coast Guard vessel from ever knowing what they are really being used for. It's perfect cover for murder, or kidnapping followed by life in a CIA jail somewhere. And the fact that NO ONE has ever had major play on national news after getting their boat burned is proof positive that the Coast Guard is going around and playing a part in exactly that. No boat ever found, the doctor just VANISHED AT SEA. Logic - a wave got him.
And if this story really did have a different way to end, New Zealand, Indonesia, China, Russia, Argentina, Britain, WHOEVER, would be constantly prosecuting the U.S. for illegally boarding the boats of their citizens and burning them, and the news wires would be burning as well. I asked him how many boats they burned and it was "several every time out". Several times out per Coast Guard vessel that leaves American waters on a mission.
Absolute silence on this issue from everyone, all the nations, proves beyond a doubt that the Coast Guard is a de facto murder weapon, and seeing them out at sea is a rightful thing of dread, Papered or not, if you are significant for any reason and you see those bastards you had better shoot FIRST. Either way you are probably dead and if they lose a few "sailors" they might re-consider their behavior.
There is no way for the "Coast Guard" to worm out of this, IT WAS A DIRECT INTERVIEW. A DE FACTO CONFESSION.
