It seems that this would be one of the first things to change, if we were serious about cutting pollution…

World’s 15 Biggest Ships Create More Pollution Than All The Cars In The World

The problem isn’t necessarily with the ships’ 109,000-horsepower engines that endlessly spin away 24 hours a day, 280 days a year. In fact, these powerplants are some of the most fuel efficient units in the world. The real issue lies with the heavy fuel oil the ships run on and the almost complete lack of regulations applied to the giant exhaust stacks of these container ships.

IMF is breaking all its own rules in relation to the Ukraine, and declaring war on Russia and China by doing so. It is also eroding what little stability remains in the global economy, and opening the way for the BRICs alternative financial and development offerings to be even more successful.

The IMF Changes its Rules to Isolate China and Russia

The nightmare scenario of U.S. geopolitical strategists seems to be coming true: foreign economic independence from U.S. control.

Competing Billion-Dollar Tech Companies Are Joining Forces. Here's Why.

The combination of open innovation and accelerated computing represents one of this decade’s most important technology trends. It’s transforming the concept of the closed-off supercomputer to a more diverse open architecture. As a result, companies that haven’t worked together before—and that may, in fact, be competitors—are collaborating together on groundbreaking projects.

All of the preconditions for revolution exist in the USA today, from a concentration of wealth combined with 23% unemployment to a government that has lost all legitimacy in the eyes of the people because of the blatant manner in which a two-party tyranny has sold out to 40-odd billionaires. Chris Hedges (Empire of Illusion) and Matt Taibbi (Griftopia) nailed it. All we are missing is a precipitant (such as a soccer mom torching herself on Capitol Hill) and a couple of billionaires that “get” the insanity of a 100% corrupt government making their wealth very vulnerable to pitchforks on the mansions and angry veterans putting 50 caliber bullets into their Lear Jets as they land or take off. This white paper offers a seven day plan for restoring American democracy while treating the elite to the most graceful Truth & Reconciliation process they might have prayed for.

The whistleblower who exposed U.S.’s flawed security clearance system finally gets his reward

By Christian Davenport, The Washington Post, 18 December 2015

The answer — that the company was cutting corners performing the federal background checks used in granting security clearances — put him on a collision course with his superiors and eventually turned him into one of the government’s most significant whistleblowers in years.

Transgenderism/Transageism: New Pedo Frontier?

According to reporter Wayne Madsen, transgenderism will be used as pretext by which to legally expand pederasty. This article link he shared on his web site is about a 50+ man who abandoned his wife and seven children to live his “true life” as a six year old girl. As they say, you cannot make this stuff up, but this man's story (or former man, at least in gender identity) has been taken seriously enough for it to be featured in a full-length documentary film put out by a transgender group.

Kazakhstan: A poorly thought-out surveillance technique or an experiment for the West?

The Government of the Kazakhstan plans to implement a new internet control policy for the whole population starting from 1st January 2016. The announcement was published by Kazakhtelecom JSC, the largest telecommunications company in the country, on Monday 30th November 2016; and stated the government would oblige the population to install a “national security certificate” on every internet-capable device in the country, including desktops and mobile devices; leaving Kazakhtelecom (the ISP) able to carry out ‘man-in-the middle (MitM)  attacks; all the other operators would be obliged by law to do the same, meaning that all HTTPS connections in Kazakhstan will be inspected.
