'Fedspeak' was first used to describe the long, often vague statements by Alan Greenspan on changes in Federal Reserve policy. In fact, Greenspan claims opaque answers to straight forward questions were part of the job as he did not want to make markets overreact. In his words,
"What tends to happen is your syntax collapses... All of a sudden, you are mumbling. It often works. I created a new language which we now call Fedspeak. Unless you are expert at it, you can't tell that I didn't say anything."
Recently, in a departure from 'Fedspeak', Central bankers around the world have made their intentions known about how they plan to manage their foreign exchange reserves, giving investors a rare glimpse into how to manage their own portfolios.

Comment: Note: Central Banks are not buying silver. Today, silver does not meet a strict definition of a "Store of Value" due to its increasing consumption in industry.

Rajasthan, India's largest state with a population of 70 million people, declares that public jobs are no longer available to smokers

Jaipur - If you want a government job in Rajasthan, quit smoking and chewing gutka first. For, the department of personnel has issued a circular to all other departments and district collectors to extract an undertaking from candidates to the effect that they do not smoke or consume gutka while in government service.

In November 2012, state-level coordination committee (SLCC) for tobacco control had recommended that an undertaking should be taken from candidates before giving them government jobs. Such an undertaking would help young smokers to quit the habit in the initial stages itself, which otherwise would result in cancer, the committee felt.

Principal secretary, department of personnel, Sudarshan Sethi said, "Gutka and smoking are very harmful and their consumption is not at all a fashion statement. People should stay away from it."

A copy of the circular, issued on October 4, has been sent to the governor, Rajasthan Public Service Commission, secretary, Rajasthan Vidhan Sabha and registrar, Rajasthan High Court Jaipur/Jodhpur.

The circular was issued on the same day when the model code of conduct for assembly elections came into effect in the state.

Comment: Half of all cancers in males in India are caused by tobacco?LIE!

Crack-smoking mayor of Toronto, Rob Ford, threatens to murder someone in latest video leak: Conservative 'family values' politician has no intention of resigning

Disgraced Toronto mayor Rob Ford
Rob Ford, the mayor of Toronto who this week admitted to having smoked crack cocaine, has become embroiled in a fresh controversy after the publication of a video which shows him shouting abuse and making threats.

Ford apologised to the people of Toronto on Tuesday after making his extraordinary crack cocaine admission, but has refused to bow to mounting pressure from federal and council officials to step down and get help for his problems.

A new video, published by the Toronto Star on Thursday, shows Ford staggering around a room, talking to someone out of sight.

"I'm gonna kill that fucking guy. I'm telling you, it's first-degree murder," Ford rants, in a tirade directed at an unknown person. "No hold barred, bro. He dies or I die, brother. ... I'll rip his fucking throat out. I'll poke his eyes out ... I'll make sure that motherfucker's dead," Ford says, gesticulating with his hands as if engaged in a violent fight.


Comment: Ford "doesn't know what to say" because he doesn't understand what all the fuss is about. He is doing what is normal for him to do.

Rehab isn't going to anything other than help him improve his theatrical performances. Ford doesn't have a drug 'problem'. He's doing what he loves: taking taxpayer money and wallowing in power, gluttony and greed.

Thankfully this 'conservative' politician and outspoken proponent of 'family values' has no intention of resigning; this way, he can continue demonstrating to the world the true inner nature of most political and corporate leaders on the planet.

Dave Muscato, director of media relations for American Atheists, Inc., said that Christians who complain about persecution in the public square don't actually want equality with other viewpoints, they want supremacy over them.

In an interview with Raw Story, Muscato responded to avowals by Louisiana public officials that prayer will continue in public forums by saying that Christian officials who foist their views on private citizens are in violation of the some of this country's most sacred founding beliefs and of the U.S. Constitution.

"These Christians," he continued, "they've had a monopoly for so long. They don't want equality, they want privilege. And when they don't get special rights, they cry that they're being persecuted."

Forensic experts have exhumed 430 bodies so far from a mass grave left over from the 1992-1995 Bosnian war, possibly the largest gravesite found in Bosnia-Herzogivina, officials said Thursday.

"Remains of 430 victims have been exhumed so far and among them 275 complete bodies," Lejla Cengic of the Bosnian Institute for Missing People told AFP.

The bodies are believed to be those of Muslims and Croats tortured and killed by Bosnian Serb forces in northwestern Bosnia at the beginning of the war.

Let's take a look at ObamaCare without the party politics.

When it comes to the Affordable Care Act, AKA Obamacare, a large percentage of the public is completely misinformed about what the law actually entails.

Many of these misconceptions have been intentionally cultivated by political pundits from both the left and the right. An predictably, people have latched onto the distortions which most closely fit in with their world view.

Let's remove all the party politics and set the record straight.

JFK assassination's 50th anniversary - 4 files the CIA must make public

JFK Dallas
© UnknownPresident John F. Kennedy and first lady Jacqueline Kennedy arriving at Love Field in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963. Fifty years after President Kennedy’s assassination, critical documents that could explain more about what happened in Dealey Plaza in Dallas on that day are being withheld by the Central Intelligence Agency.
Scholar and assassination researcher Josiah Thompson, author of Six Seconds In Dallas, said it best, in the 2007 documentary film, Oswald's Ghost:

"As long as a mystery resides at the center of this case, it can't be closed," Thompson said.

That case, the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas, on Nov. 22, 1963, remains, for many, an open and unsolved murder case.

It remains open because the Dallas Police Department never had a chance to conduct a standard criminal investigation of the assassination. At the direction of Secret Service, Federal Bureau of Investigation and Central Intelligence Agency officials present in Dallas, President Kennedy's body was quickly flown on Air Force One back to Washington, D.C., that Friday afternoon.

Comment: For a better understanding of the circumstances surrounding the JFK assassination please watch the Evidence of Revision documentary.

Israel mad at possible compromise between Iran, World Powers

© UnknownIsraeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu warned the six world powers on Thursday to give up their present approach in negotiations with Tehran, which diplomats of both Iran and the six world powers say, is much likely to end in an agreement soon.
As western diplomats said they have offered Tehran an ease in sanctions in return for Tehran stopping any further advancement in its nuclear enrichment activities, the Israeli premier said Tel Aviv is against an agreement with Iran that stops short of getting it to halt its uranium enrichment.

"Israel understands that there are proposals on the table in Geneva today that would ease the pressure on Iran for concessions that are not concessions at all," he said, during a speech to the Jewish Agency.

While a nuclear military capability needs uranium enriched more than 90% and Iran has succeeded in enriching uranium to a maximum 20% to feed its nuclear research reactor in Tehran which produces radioisotopes for medical purposes, including cancer treatment, the Israeli prime minister said the 20-percent enrichment capability enables Iran to build an atomic bomb.

"This proposal will allow Iran to preserve its ability to build a nuclear weapon. Israel is completely opposed to these proposals. I believe that adopting them would be a mistake of historic proportions and they should be completely rejected," he said.

Netanyahu renewed his military threats against Iran, warning that if the present negotiations in Geneva between Iran and the six world powers end in an agreement undesirable to Israel, Tel Aviv might wage an attack on Iran.

Comment: Iran is a signature nation of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Israel is not.

New Investigation Alleges US Military, Monsanto Targeting GMO Activists and Independent Scientists
© Unknown
A highly concerning new investigative report from the largest daily newspaper in Germany alleges that Monsanto, the US Military and the US government have colluded to track and disrupt both anti-GMO activists and independent scientists who study the adverse effects of genetically modified food.

As revealed yesterday by Sustainable Pulse, on July 13th the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung detailed information on how the US Government "advances the interests of their corporations," focusing on Monsanto as a prime example.

The report titled, "The Sinister Monsanto Group: 'Agent Orange' to Genetically Modified Corn," described a 'new fangled cyber war' being waged against both eco-activists and independent scientists by supporters and former employees of Monsanto, who are described as "operationally powerful assistants" and who have taken up sometimes high ranking posts in the US administration, regulatory authorities, and some of whom have connections deep within the military industrial establishment, including the CIA.

Murderous Israeli Cabinet: "We will choose the right way and the right time to kill Arafat"

The forensic tests on samples taken from Yasser Arafat's corpse by a team of Swiss scientists exhibit high levels of radioactive polonium-210. The exhumation of his body was implemented in November 2012. The samples revealed "levels of polonium at least 18 times higher than usual in Arafat's ribs, pelvis and in soil that absorbed his bodily fluids."

These developments raise the broader issue which the media has failed to address: Who was behind the assassination of Yasser Arafat? The Answer to that question was provided by the Israeli government in 2003, a year prior to his death.

"We will choose the right way and the right time to kill Arafat."

In September 2003, Israel's government passed a law to get rid of Arafat. Israel's cabinet for political security affairs declared it "a decision to remove Arafat as an obstacle to peace."
