Ron Paul: Frances Foreign Policy Invited Retaliation on Charlie Hebdo

Posted: January 8, 2015 at 3:44 am

As he has said in the past about the attacks of September 11, 2001, Ron Paul again argued Wednesday that bad foreign policy, this time on the part of France, invites retaliation, now in the form of todays shooting at Charlie Hebdos Paris offices.

Paul made his comments in an interview with NewsmaxTVs Steve Malzberg, saying he does not blame the country of France for the attack, but he does blame on bad policy that we dont fully understand. He added, It doesnt justify, but it explains it.

This is pretty obscene, when it comes to violence, and libertarians are pretty annoyed by anybody who initiates violence, Paul said of the attacks, explaining that France has been a target for many, many years, because theyve been involved in foreign affairs in Libya and Algeria.

Citing U.S. wars in the Middle East, drone strikes and sending weapons into Syria, Paul said, Its that overall policy which invites retaliation, and they see us as intruders. He added, Weve been conditioned to believe that the only reason 9/11 happened is that we are free and prosperous. I dont believe that for a minute.

Welcome to the Matrix: Enslaved by Technology and the Internet of Things

By John W. Whitehead

January 07, 2015

There will come a time when it isn't Theyre spying on me through my phone anymore. Eventually, it will be My phone is spying on me. Philip K. Dick

If ever Americans sell their birthright, it will be for the promise of expediency and comfort delivered by way of blazingly fast Internet, cell phone signals that never drop a call, thermostats that keep us at the perfect temperature without our having to raise a finger, and entertainment that can be simultaneously streamed to our TVs, tablets and cell phones.

Likewise, if ever we find ourselves in bondage, we will have only ourselves to blame for having forged the chains through our own lassitude, laziness and abject reliance on internet-connected gadgets and gizmos that render us wholly irrelevant.

Indeed, while most of us are consumed with our selfies and trying to keep up with what our so-called friends are posting on Facebook, the megacorporation Google has been busily partnering with theNational Security Agency(NSA), thePentagon, and other governmental agencies to develop a new human species, so to speak.

In other words, Googlea neural network that approximates a global brainis fusing with the human mind in a phenomenon that is called singularity, and theyve hired transhumanist scientist Ray Kurzweil to do just that. Google will know the answer to your question before you have asked it, Kurzweil said. It will have read every email you will ever have written, every document, every idle thought youve ever tapped into a search-engine box. It will know you better than your intimate partner does. Better, perhaps, than even yourself.

But heres the catch: the NSA and all other government agencies will also know you better than yourself. As William Binney, one of the highest-level whistleblowers to ever emerge from the NSA said, The ultimate goal of the NSA is total population control.

Science fiction, thus, has become fact.

'Human-sized' trailer of 'Ant-Man' launched

Posted: at 3:43 am

New Delhi, Jan 8 (IANS): After teasing audiences with an "ant-sized" miniature version of the trailer of "Ant-Man", Marvel has released its "human-sized" avatar.

Marvel's "Ant-Man" is the newest addition to the much loved list of Marvels Superheroes. The first look of the film was unveiled Wednesday as its teaser poster and trailer were launched globally.

It was to build curiosity that Marvel had unveiled the 'ant-sized' trailer a day earlier than the 'human-sized' version, read a statement.

The film stars Paul Rudd as master thief Scott Lang, who must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), in protecting the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats.

Directed by Peyton Reed and produced by Kevin Feige, the film is slated for worldwide release July 2015.

Watch Bill Gates sip 'delicious drinking water' that used to be human feces

Posted: at 3:43 am

The richest man in the world is putting his money where his mouth is and he's even willing to taste the results.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates recently performed a taste-test of drinking water produced by a special machine that purifies sewage for human consumption. The Gates-funded device is called the OmniProcessor, and it uses boilers, steam power and a filtration process to ingest human feces and output clean drinking water, electricity and a small amount of ash waste.

Gates documented a first-hand taste test of the OmniProcessor water on his blog on Monday.

"I watched the piles of feces go up the conveyor belt and drop into a large bin," he wrote in the post. "They made their way through the machine, getting boiled and treated. A few minutes later I took a long taste of the end result: a glass of delicious drinking water.

"The water tasted as good as any I've had out of a bottle," he said.

The OmniProcessor is designed by Janicki Bioenergy and funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in an ongoing effort to improve sanitation in developing countries. Gates says the OmniProcessor is designed to be an affordable, easy-to-maintain method of human waste disposal in countries that lack the infrastructure to put toilets into widespread use.

Gates' blog post includes a video of him inspecting the OmniProcessor device in November. The video features Gates alongside Janicki Bioenergy CEO Peter Janicki, who explains how the OmniProcessor works.

"The OmniProcessor turns sewer sludge which is kind of nasty into clean drinking water, electricity and ash, which is pathogen-free," Janicki says in the video.

The OmniProcessor carries feces up a conveyor belt and through a series of dryers, which boil off the liquid water contents as vapour. The dried waste is carried to a furnace, where it's burned to produce steam that drives an energy-producing generator. At the same time, the water vapour is sent through a cleaning system that turns it back into clean, drinkable water.

Janicki says entrepreneurs who use the OmniProcessor will be paid for the sewage they take in, and for the water and electricity they output.

Astronomers Have Discovered Eight Potentially Habitable Planets

Astronomers have announced that they have discovered eight more planets that likely exist in temperature ranges where life could exist.

The astronomers began their research path by examining candidates for planets that had been identified by NASAs Kepler mission. The candidates were analyzed using a supercomputer running algorithms at NASAs Ames facility.

After exploring the statistical likelihood of the planets existence, the team followed up with months of observations using a variety of different methods. The planets are distant enough, however, that their habitabiliy is still only a likelihood, not a certainty.

We dont know for sure whether any of the planets in our sample are truly habitable, researcher David Kipping said in a statement. All we can say is that theyre promising candidates.

The two most potentially Earth-like planets of the group of eight are Kepler-438b and Kepler-442b, both of which circle red dwarf stars are are respectively 70% and 97% likely to be in the habitable temperature zones of their respective stars. However, it should be noted that there are serious issues regarding the potential habitability of planets circling red dwarf stars, so confirmation will require significantly more study.

In addition to nearly doubling the potential number of habitable planets, this latest discovery also helps astronomers in a different milestone. NASA announced this week that the Kepler mission has helped astronomers verify the discovery of over 1,000 planets outside of our solar system. The mission has also uncovered over 4,000 planetary candidates.

Each result from the planet-hunting Kepler missions treasure trove of data takes us another step closer to answering the question of whether we are alone in the Universe, NASA associate administrator John Grunsfeld said in a press release. The Kepler team and its science community continue to produce impressive results with the data from this venerable explorer.

The researchers findings will be published in The Astrophysical Journal.

2015: The Future Is Here and It Requires Unlearning

Posted: at 3:43 am

Boston, MA (PRWEB) January 08, 2015

The future is here. Now. And global futurist Jack Uldrich is telling people how they can live into it in the most effective ways. As a best selling author and highly regarded keynote speaker, Uldrich brings to light the advantages of being creative and using the powers of individual imagination by sharing insights on the concept of unlearning.

"In the near future, the greatest change will be the accelerating rate of change itself," says Uldrich. "And that is going to require quite a bit of unlearning for a lot of people,"

Uldrich's keynotes include topics like "Foresight 20/20" helping organizations navigate the decade ahead with an in-depth exploration of ten technological trends that will transform the world of 2020; "The Big AHA" that focuses on future-proofing through the principles of Awareness, Humility and Action, and "Business as Unusual" which prepares companies for an uncertain and unpredictable future.

"How can we prepare for this uncertainty?" asks Uldrich,"The answer is that you and your organization must think and act in unorthodox ways."

Staring on January 16th Uldrich will travel the US for the following eight engagements:

JAN 13: Informatica Corporation National Sales Meeting in Las Vegas, NV

JAN 20: Institutional Investor -- Montage Deer Valley in Park City, UT

JAN 21: Signal Hill Annual Meeting in Las Vegas, NV

JAN 22: Vision Council of America in Palm Beach Gardens, FL

Intel

Brian David Johnson has nothing if not an usual job. Hes Intels futurist. At first glance, many people might think he traffics in predictions. But Johnson says not so. He describes what he does asfuturecasting.

His job is to imagine what life might be like in 10 or 15 years and to imagine the kind of technology that might fit into that. Johnson says a big part of his job is talking to people, finding out whatstories theyre thinking about and getting them to realize that the future theyre creating is a function of thosestories.

Heres Brian David Johnson giving a TEDx talk about some of these ideas in2013:
