Attorney General Eric Holder stated the DOJ strongly opposes Prop 19, and if voters in California choose to vote for full legalization, the federal government will "vigorously enforce" federal law. Matt Welch, editor in chief of Reason magazine calls this an appalling use of intimidation to get people not to vote.
Quick Summary From the Los Angeles Times: The new spot, called "echo," features side-by-side screen shots of Meg Whitman and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger saying the same thing about leadership, running the state more like a business and creating jobs. Response from Meg Whitman's Campaign: Whitman spokeswoman Andrea Jones Rivera said, "it is a fundamentally misleading and dishonest ad based on out of context editing and a totally false premise."

Ninja and Yo-Landi of Die Antwoord sat down with Xeni Jardin of BoingBoing.net for an interview just after the South African "rap-rave" band's first-ever US performance at the Coachella music festival. The duo spoke about their explosive, internet-fueled burst to fame, and about the origins of their "car crash music" (it's disturbing, but you can't look away) by way of District 9 and an anarchic internet and music subculture in post-Apartheid South Africa. We're told this was the only interview Die Antwoord granted during their US visit.

Former Fed Mob Boss Calls for VAT and Carbon Taxes Kurt Nimmo www.infowars.com April 7, 2010 One thing is certain. If Obama and his economic advisers have their way, you will be paying significantly higher taxes directly to the banksters. Since payroll taxes are already egregiously high, the preferred method is either a sales tax or a so-called value added tax, also known as VAT. Glenn Beck is a fan of this form of government fleecing while his conservative counterpart Bill OReilly prefers a straight sales tax to pay down the national debt. Volcker has said Americans have been living above their means for too long. In steps Paul Volcker, the former Fed mob boss who now runs Obamas Economic Recovery Advisory Board. Volcker said yesterday the United States should consider imposing a European-styled VAT in order to get the deficit under control, as Fox News put it. Volcker also told a panel discussing the global economic crisis at the New-York Historical Society that Americans needs to be socked with new taxes on carbon and energy. If you want to know what Volcker has in mind, consider remarks he made in 2008 Americans have been living above their means for too long. It is the United States as a whole that became addicted to spending and consuming beyond its capacity to produce, Volcker lectured the Economic Club of New York. Bringing consumption back in line with income would not only crimp individuals and families, but also require major readjustments in the global economy ...
Visit the Pigasus Award page www.randi.org Good evening! Tonight, we are pleased to present this year's Pigasus Awards to the following very-deserving people. It was a hard call — there seem to be millions all over the world clambering to make it onto the following shortlist — but these folks had that special something that commanded our attention and, in the end, impressed us like no others. No matter if it was blatant cynicism, shocking callousness, lazy ignorance, or merely old-fashioned pig-headedness — these men and women took those qualities that most vex us to their wild, crazy extremes. We'd salute them, but we're too busy gaping. For the scientist who did the most to promote woo in 09 Dr. Mehmet Oz is a Harvard-educated cardiac physician whose current TV show, while providing some basic wisdom re medical matters, also promotes and endorses such quackery as Reiki of which Ozs wife is a practitioner along with all sorts of energy medicine and other magic. Oprah Winfrey, following his appearance on her TV show, set him up with a show of his own, which has heavy ratings and brings him book sales and the other fruits of success. Proper scientific studies have found that Reiki offers no therapeutic effects, nor is it beneficial for any condition, though it does fatten the wallets of the practitioners. For the funding organization that wasted the most money on pseudo-science Iraq's Interior Ministry had, by the end of 2009, spent USD $85000000 on a dowsing rod called ...

During the 1990s, Los Angeles native Steven Krueger broke into dozens of high end electronics stores and boosted millions of dollars worth of modems, laptops and video cameras that he fenced for big money. Dressed entirely in black, using rope ladders and grappling hooks, he scaled buildings, cut his way into roofs and avoided alarms by lowering himself down into stores full of waiting loot. His work was so clean and professional that the Los Angeles Times dubbed him The Mission Impossible Thief.

[Full Promo Clip] Michael Jackson's June 23rd dress rehearsal performance of "They Don't Care About Us" for the "This Is It" tour. His final Staples Center rehearsal was the following night (6/24), and then he died the next day (6/25). Also, at the end of the official clip you'll notice an eerie smile by Michael Jackson, which is more noticeable in the short clip tacked on at the end of this video (1:49). (Side Note): Many people have wondered who's the guitarist in this clip. Many have assumed it's Jennifer Batten from Jackson's "Bad," "Dangerous," and "HIStory" tours. It turns out that it's actually Orianthi. She may previously be best known for being asked by Carrie Underwood to join her band onstage at the 2009 Grammys.

Paul Joseph Watson & Steve Watson Prison Planet.com Thursday, June 18, 2009 www.prisonplanet.com President Obamas plan to give the privately-owned and unaccountable Federal Reserve complete regulatory oversight across the entire US economy, which is likely to be enacted before the end of the year, will officially herald the beginning of a new form of government in the United States - an ultra-powerful banking dictatorship controlled by a small gaggle of shadowy and corrupt elitists. The new rules would see the Fed given the authority to regulate any company whose activity it believes could threaten the economy and the markets. This goes a step further than the centrally planned economies of the Soviet Union or Communist China, in that the Federal Reserve is not even accountable to the US government, it is a private entity that according to former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan, is accountable to nobody but the banking families that own it. Obamas regulatory reform plan is nothing less than a green light for the complete and total takeover of the United States by a private banking cartel that will usurp the power of existing regulatory bodies, who are now being blamed for the financial crisis in order that their status can be abolished and their roles handed over to the all-powerful Fed. According to an Associated Press report today, Democratic leaders have committed to enacting the plan before the end of the year and Republicans in both the House and Senate have indicated ...

On the night of November 30, 1994, the day before the verdict in his sexual abuse trial was to be announced, Shakur was shot five times and robbed after entering the lobby of Quad Recording Studios in Manhattan by two armed men in army fatigues. He would later accuse Sean Combs, Andre Harrell, and Biggie Smalls — whom he saw after the shooting — of setting him up. Shakur also suspected his close friend and associate, Randy "Stretch" Walker, of being involved in the attempt. According to the doctors at Bellevue Hospital, where he was admitted immediately following the incident, Shakur had received five bullet wounds; twice in the head, twice in the groin and once through the arm and thigh. He checked out of the hospital, against doctor's orders, three hours after surgery. In the day that followed, Shakur entered the courthouse in a wheelchair and was found guilty of three counts of molestation, but innocent of six others, including sodomy. On November 30, 1995, exactly one year to the day of the shooting, Stretch was killed in an execution-style murder in Queens. On March 27, 2008, the LA Times issued an apology to Combs for blaming him for having a role in the '94 attack on Shakur. The article stated that Shakur was led to the studio by Biggie's associates to gun him down to make favor with Biggie. The newspaper relied on forged documents that ...
