The newspaper in Idaho Falls, ID is the Post Register. Yesterday they had an editorial written by a member of [sic] City Council. Apparently, he is a quasi-staff member because the Register allows him a bully pulpit on a regular basis. I found that out when I wrote a response to an editorial he wrote […]
Bruce Schneier “Who controls the off switch?” by Ross Anderson and Shailendra Fuloria. Abstract: We’re about to acquire a significant new cybervulnerability. The world’s energy utilities are starting to install hundreds of millions of ‘smart meters’ which contain a remote off switch. Its main purpose is to ensure that customers who default on their payments […]
Former heads of state will meet (in Minnesota, Oct. 2015) on democracy, sustainability (Agenda 21). An announcement expected Monday in New York will break the news that Minneapolis will host a major global conference on sustainability that will attract the former heads of state of nearly 100 countries to Minnesota in October 2015. The theme of “MN2015,” as […]
Bruce Schneier LIFX is a smart light bulb that can be controlled with your smart phone via your home’s Wi-Fi network. Turns out that anyone within range can obtain the Wi-Fi password from the light bulb. It’s a problem with the communications protocol.
A secure crib and a baby monitor are on the the “must-have” safety checklist for many new parents. But when you tuck Junior in for the night, you never imagine waking to a scene straight out of The Twilight Zone: a foul-mouthed baby camera with a life of its own. This is exactly what happened to […]
The author doesn’t mention Agenda 21, but that is what this is. “Community education” is guiding our youth and adults into compliance, rather than enlightenment. K‑12 education is not teaching the critical, independent thought necessary for informed, independent action; our children are being taught to “feel” and act as a collective, or hive. Americans are […]
“It’s the first school year most parents have heard about Common Core. And they don’t like it one bit.” This is the year new national Common Core tests kick in, replacing state tests in most locales, courtesy of an eager Obama administration and the future generation’s tax dollars. It’s also the first year a majority […]
If you were hoping that iOS 8’s ability to hide your device ID from nearby WiFi networks would render you invisible to nosy hotspot operators, you’ll want to dial back your expectations a bit. AirTight Networks’ Bhupinder Misra has found that Apple’s hardware address randomization only kicks in under a very narrow set of circumstances. […]
Many of us have seen news reports in recent days on student walkouts in the Denver suburbs. The School Board wants to ensure that certain traditional areas are still emphasized in American history, while the students see the intervention as propaganda. The adults involved seem a bit shocked that what they see as facts is […]
William Binney is one of the highest-level whistleblowers to ever emerge from the NSA. He was a leading code-breaker against the Soviet Union during the Cold War but resigned soon after September 11, disgusted by Washington’s move towards mass surveillance. On 5 July he spoke at a conference in London organised by the Centre for […]
In my last article I discussed the idea that much of what we are experiencing in this country can’t be considered a “conspiracy theory” anymore because it is actually happening. We are literally watching the world burn around us and every day there is another new, exciting development that only, in my mind anyways, reinforces […]
I still remember my shock that so many famous and powerful Americans endorsed the view in the March 2013 book by Moises Naim that simply assumed that the American people were now to be Governed as if they were collectively a ship in need of steering by politicians. http://invisibleserfscollar.com/using-education-to-make-giving-more-power-to-those-who-govern-us-the-common-vision/ Silly me. Turns out there was […]
Anita B. Hoge While everyone is out there debating Common Core, there is a system of standardization being put in place. And, if you are unaware of this system, what you don’t know about Common Core, Choice, and Charter Schools CAN hurt you. This story tells a different Common Core tale with a much different ending […]
Bruce Schneier And real corporate security is still impossible. If you’ve been reading the news recently, you might think that corporate America is doing its best to thwart NSA surveillance. Google just announced that it is encrypting Gmail when you access it from your computer or phone, and between data centers. Last week, Mark Zuckerberg […]
Rural landowners who desire to use their own property are shocked when they learn new regulations increasingly restrict them from doing almost anything. These regulations ostensibly protect endangered species, viewsheds, open space, or a host of other reasons for limiting the owners rights to use their land. Although the environment and society allegedly benefit from […]
BART is the Bay Area Rapid Transit district Anti-Dairy Ads on BART Urge Commuters to Bathe Exactly as the poison of illegal drugs is the root cause of so much violent and debilitating crime, and just as the army of poor children born annually into fatherless homes to be raised like weeds by elderly relatives is […]
This follow-up is related to our September 18 post, UN’s International Building Codes, necessary tool for Agenda 21 implementation. The Bradley County, Tennessee, Board of Commissioners voted this week to adopt the proposed 2035 Joint Strategic Plan. The post below is an example of local Agenda 21 opponents’ efforts to stop implementation through education, public awareness, […]
Let’s pretend for a moment that we are all in the same room mulling over why K‑12 education is shutting down what works and expanding everything that has ever been controversial or even tragic. We could get out a White Board and pretend to be detective Kate Beckett on the TV show Castle and create […]
Here is an excerpt from the preamble of the document Agenda 21: “Land… cannot be treated as an ordinary asset, controlled by individuals and subject to the pressures and inefficiencies of the market. Private land ownership is also a principal instrument of accumulation and concentration of wealth and therefore contributes to social injustice; if unchecked, it […]
If you hang out in the dungeons and attics of the Transformation Blueprints like I do, one of the omnipresent confessions that is crucial, but not making it into the public domain YET, is that classroom activities and experiences are now “aims-based” or “goal-directed,” not “subject-matter based.” History, math, literature, or science course names still […]
Heather Gass Over the past few years, I and many others in the San Francisco Bay Area have been fighting against a plan that seeks to socially re-engineer our lives: the One Bay Area Plan. Over the next 25 to 30 years it will transform the lives of over 9 million people in 9 counties […]
The End of Representative Government… …The Beginning of Global “Governance” Government of the people, by the people, for the people?! According to Reed Hastings of Netflix you only have 20–30 years of freedom left! Get out to vote now, because you won’t have it in the future. While many conservatives are out in the political […]
“Those who have the privilege to know, have the duty to act.” ‑Albert Einstein Anita B. Hoge Obama and ‘Conservative’ Groups Use Bait and Switch Tactics. They are using the momentum against Common Core to complete and further their agenda—“Choice” and Charter Schools. The truth has uneasy consequences. ‘Conservatives’ and Republicans are revealing their so-called “Choice […]
The numbers are in and the verdict is that there has been no global warming for 17 years and 11 months, according to satellite data. Satellite data prepared by Lord Christopher Monckton shows there has been no warming trend from October of 1996 to August of 2014 — 215 months. To put this in perspective, […]
Sustainable Development is the blueprint being used across America and around the world to implement the United Nations Agenda 21 Programme.
