DNA Data Storage next Quantum Leap posted by Geraint Jones via digby, 2012-08-20 10:29:48
The amazing data storage capability of DNA notwithstanding, this story is primarily extolling the virtues of extra-dimensional advantages. The primary reason DNA dwarfs known digital storage methods is simply due to the fact that DNA stores its information in THREE dimensions whereas today's conventional digital storage methods only encode data in two dimensional form.

Proven liar and war criminal, Rumsfeld leads lackey Oz ministers, Downer and Hill Former Oz PM and defence chiefs demand Inquiry into Oz role in the illegal Iraq Invasion posted by mitch, 2012-08-20 00:10:34
Well, it's about time, as the entire nation is aware that Howard the coward kowtowed to Washington's every lying whim prior to the illegal invasion of Iraq, which resulted in over one million innocent civilian deaths and over four million displaced Iraqis and a ruined State; in other words, the invasion of Iraq was a criminal action from start to finish. The historical record of orchestrated and concerted LIES tells the ugly story of John 'aluminium tubing' Howard's participation in a 'coalition of willing criminals' when a wary world would have none of it.

ALBA group of nations united behind Correa Rafael Correa warns UK, "You don't know who you're dealing with!" posted by nicco, 2012-08-19 00:49:17
In a previous article I referred to the adept political manoeuvring of Ecuador's president in relation to the Assange asylum case -- the unfortunate Aussie at the centre of this row seems to have taken a backseat to the real politik of the situation that is unfolding before our eyes. (full story)

'without him all this killing can't go on ..' posted by mitch, 2012-08-18 01:27:27
Before I begin this discourse I would state that the primary force that put an end to the corporate and ideological wars of the 60's and 70's was the people, yes, the socially connected masses of the pre-digital age whose brains were 'wired' somewhat differently than the alienated, socially DIS-connected, 'me' generations of today.

A picture and a portrait posted by transposer, 2012-08-15 09:42:28
If a picture is worth a thousand words it simply means the viewer or reader is ignorant; however, those able to decode the various levels of discourse in any given text are slaves to no-one but masters of many. (full story)

Disinformation posted by Brandon Smith via zeld, 2012-08-14 08:45:54
The mainstream media, once tasked with the job of investigating government corruption and keeping elitists in line, has now become nothing more than a public relations firm for corrupt officials and their Globalist handlers. The days of the legitimate “investigative reporter” are long gone, and journalism itself has deteriorated into a rancid pool of so called “TV Editorialists” who treat their own baseless opinions as supported fact.

The Normalisation of State Crime posted by judd, 2012-08-13 23:30:19
Take a long look at the USA's flagrant criminal activity over the past decade and realise America's strategy is not to become a moral, civil power again, but rather to numb and familiarise the population to gross INJUSTICE, mass murder, theft on a grand scale and brutality/torture -- a very 'nice' portrait of a nation that once had the unimpeded opportunity to lead the world to the moral high ground. What a thoroughly tragic outcome for all Americans and the nations US criminal elites have invaded and seek to invade. (full story)

The Foreign Hand of Intervention in Syria posted by Eric Margolis via jalal, 2012-08-13 10:10:20
It is no secret that Syria is on the neo-con regime change list, as is Iran; the Balkans, Iraq, Afghanistan and a number of resource rich former Soviet satellite nations have already succumbed to the illegal interventions of Western Corporate and Banker elites; but I would also state that most invaded nations requested assistance from COWARDLY China and Russia, the only combined force that is able to effectively resist the Imperial ambitions of US/NATO powers.

The United States and its comrade-in-arms, Al-Qaeda posted by William Blum via sal, 2012-08-12 09:51:47
Afghanistan in the 1980s and 90s ... Bosnia and Kosovo in the 1990s ... Libya 2011 ... Syria 2012 ... In military conflicts in each of these countries the United States and Al-Qaeda (or one of its affiliates) have been on the same side. 1

Who is Bradley Manning? Bradley Manning Lawyer Avoids using the "T" Word - reasons unknown! posted by Matt Williams via smiley, 2012-08-11 11:23:43
Two foregone conclusions hit the newswire this week. The first is the unsurprising 'news' that politician-owning Goldman Sachs avoided fraud charges and prosecution for one of the largest frauds committed this century. The other is that Pfc. Bradley Manning, alleged WikiLeaker, will be found guilty no matter what. So what's new in America you may well ask? Well, if you must know, mafia style presidential 'kill lists' and indefinite detention without charge or trial on suspicion. (full story)
