Why is there a Media Blackout on Nuclear Incident at Fort Calhoun in Nebraska?

I think I would be really quite concerned if I lived within a few hundred km of this nuclear facility in the U.S.A.

Since flooding began on June 6th, there has been a disturbingly low level of media attention given to the crisis at the Fort Calhoun Nuclear Facility near Omaha, Nebraska. But evidence strongly suggests that something very serious has in fact happened there.

On June 7th, there was a fire reported at Fort Calhoun.  The official story is that the fire was in an electrical switchgear room at the plant.  The apparently facility lost power to a pump that cools the spent fuel rod pool, allegedly for a duration of approximately 90 minutes.

FORT CALHOUN NUKE SITE: does it pose a public risk?

The following sequence of events is documented on the Omaha Public Power District’s own website, stating among other things, that here was no such imminent danger with the Fort Calhoun Station spent-fuel pool, and that due to a fire in an electrical switchgear room at FCS on the morning of June 7, the plant temporarily lost power to a pump that cools the spent-fuel pool.

In addition to the flooding that has occurred on the banks of the Missouri River at Fort Calhoun, the Cooper Nuclear Facility in Brownville, Nebraska may also be threatened by the rising flood waters.

As was declared at Fort Calhoun on June 7th, another  “Notification of Unusual Event” was declared at Cooper Nuclear Station on June 20th.  This notification was issued because the Missouri River’s water level reached an alarming 42.5 feet. Apparently, Cooper Station is advising that it is unable to discharge sludge into the Missouri River due to flooding, and therefore “overtopped” its sludge pond.

Not surprisingly, and completely ignored by the Mainstream Media, these two nuclear power facilities in Nebraska were designated temporary restricted NO FLY ZONES  by the FAA in early June.  The FAA restrictions were reportedly down to “hazards” and were  ‘effectively immediately’, and ‘until further notice’. Yet, according to the NRC, there’s no cause for the public to panic.

Col Fusion Breakthrough?

See Cold Fusion' Breakthrough :)

A really, really inconvenient truth, as related by Lord Turnbull

Lord Turnbull doesn’t mince his words:

The feed-in tariff mechanism is fast becoming a scandal. Those lucky enough to own buildings large enough on which to install solar panels or enough land for a wind farm have been receiving 30-40p per kwh, for electricity, which is retailed at only 11p. The loss is paid for by a levy on businesses and households. It is astonishing that the Liberals who attach such importance to fairness turn a blind eye to this transfer from poor to rich running to £billions a year. If you live in a council tower block in Lambeth you don’t have much opportunity to get your nose into this trough.

and:

It is regrettable that the UK Parliament has proved so trusting and uncritical of the IPCC narrative, and so reluctant to question the economic costs being imposed in pursuit of decarbonisation. It verges on the unconstitutional that the payments being made under the renewables obligation and feed-in tariffs and the levies being raised to pay for them are routed invisibly through the accounts of the electricity industry rather than being voted in Estimates or the Finance Bill. I am also disappointed that so many of my former colleagues in the Civil Service seem so ready to go along unquestioningly with the consensus.”

Good old FBI seizes servers

FBI Seizes Servers, Knocks Websites Offline

VERNE G. KOPYTOFF New York Times Wednesday, June 22, 2011 The F.B.I. seized Web servers in a raid on a data center early Tuesday, causing several Web sites, including those run by the New York publisher Curbed Network, to go offline. The raid happened at 1:15 a.m. at a hosting facility in Reston, Va., used by DigitalOne, which is based in Switzerland, the company said. The F.B.I. did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the raid. In an e-mail to one of its clients on Tuesday afternoon, a DigitalOne employee, Sergej Ostroumow, said: “This problem is caused by the F.B.I., not our company. In the night F.B.I. has taken 3 enclosures with equipment plugged into them, possibly including your server — we can not check it.” Mr. Ostroumow said that the F.B.I. was only interested in one of the company’s clients but had taken servers used by “tens of clients.” He wrote: “After F.B.I.’s unprofessional ‘work’ we can not restart our own servers, that’s why our website is offline and support doesn’t work.” The company’s staff had been working to solve the problem for the previous 15 hours, he said.

The link between GREEN and EUGENICS (population control)

Hi Al, how you doing? I know your BIG house was lit up like a Christmas tree when you were pushing the "Inconvenient Truth" stuff. Now you are getting on the Population Control bandwagon. WHY does this not surprise me???

The GREEN MOVEMENT is irrevocably linked to EUGENICS. Take a look at the following articles.

City of London, Big Business Behind "Carbon Trading" Scam

If you like the soaring price of petrol, then you’ll simply love the new cap-and-trade carbon emissions plan John Howard and the ALP are setting up. You better, because you are going to pay through the nose for it. The same international institutions which have blown out the price of petroleum, are orchestrating this "carbon trading" scam.
A typical case is that of Dr. Richard Sandor. He is a director of both the London-based Intercontinental Exchange Inc. (ICE), which owns the International Petroleum Exchange (IPE), the self-described world’s "largest energy futures and options exchange", and of the London International Financial Futures Exchange (the largest trading market in the world in derivatives, i.e. super- speculative gambling bets). He has also recently founded the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX), purely to speculate in carbon swaps, in conjunction with the two London exchanges. Recent investigations by the U.S. Senate have found that futures speculation on the ICE/ IPE add $25 to the price of every barrel of oil—an extremely conservative estimate, given that it costs Saudi Arabia, for instance, only $5 per barrel to produce, and the bulk of the "profits" go not to OPEC, but to speculators. Sandor recently crowed, "Air and water are no longer the free goods that economics once assumed. They must be redefined as property rights so that they can be efficiently allocated", i.e. speculated upon.
Acting through instruments such as the Kyoto Protocol, the CCX and its London parents (and their Australian offshoots) allocate a nation the right to emit a specified amount of CO₂ per year. Permits are then issued to that nation’s businesses and farms, much like the disastrous "water allowances" in Australia today. If you go over your allotment, then you have to buy additional allowances. But the key is that each year the volume of allocated emissions is reduced from the year Before. This is what Rudd and other lunatics are talking about when they talk about "reducing CO₂ emissions by 60%" or more by 2050. These reduced allocations will rapidly drive up the costs of virtually everything, and an estimated 50-75% of those costs will be passed on to the consumer— you. Indeed, soaking you for the additional costs is the entire point. As the U.S. National Commission on Energy Policy (NCEP), a main coordinator for carbon-based trading, recently declared, "Cost passthrough is important to the efficacy of the policy as a whole", and warned against "shielding consumers from the price signals [increases] needed to stimulate desired behavioral responses through the economy". They, and similar bodies, intend to force consumers to abandon electricity and products generated from carbon- based fuel supplies, in favour of power and products generated from the wildly-inefficient renewable sources such as wind and solar power, which only become practicable with drastic price increases for energy.
Were less CO₂ emissions the real objective, then governments, banks and big business would obviously begin a crash mobilisation to produce a whole range of new technologies, including hundreds of nuclear power plants of the new, meltdown-proof designs; super-efficient magnetohydrodynamic plants for energy production from coal; magnetic levitation (mag-lev) forms of mass transit to replace the mass petrol-burning traffic jams characteristic of every major city; and hydrogenburning automobiles. But this would rob the cap-and-traitors of a speculative swindle projected to run into hundreds of billions of dollars. Just look at the London-based European Climate Exchange (ECX), which runs the trading in emissions allowances specified in the mandatory Kyoto Protocol which went into effect on January 1, 2005 for all 27 European Union countries. The ECX website itself avers that "Approximately 95% of the total volume in the European carbon market are seen in derivatives trades." Until the early 1990s, derivatives contracts were outlawed in the U.S., Australia and most other nations, because they were rightly understood to be mere gambling bets.

The Culprits

Have you noticed that the radical greenies have suddenly gotten oh-so-chummy with their supposed enemies in Big Business? For instance, in January 2007, the U.S. Climate Action Partnership issued a press release calling for a "mandatory economy-wide, market-driven approach to climate protection." Members of USCAP include such corporate giants as Lehman Brothers, Duke Energy, DuPont, BP America, Alcoa, and General Electric, along with environmentalist groups like the World Resources Institute (WRI), Environment Defense (ED) and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC). The seeming paradox evaporates when you look a bit closer at the WRI, the ED, the NRDC, the WWF and the like: they are all funded by banks, hedge funds, major corporations and blue-blood outfits like the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations. When the master whistles, the dog comes running.
Then look at the Australian equivalent of USCAP, the Australian Business Roundtable on Climate Change, where corporate titans such as BP Australia, Insurance Australia Group, Origin Energy, Swiss Re, Visy, and Westpac, sit cheek-by-jowl with the hysterically anti-nuclear Ian Lowe and Don Henry, President and Executive Director of the Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF), respectively. Perhaps that is not so surprising when one looks at the history of the ACF: It was founded by Francis Ratcliffe and Prince Philip, and an early Chairman of its Benefactors and National Sponsors Committee was Sir Maurice Mawby, chairman of Rio Tinto (then called Conzinc Riotinto of Australia, CRA), while CRA itself was an ACF Benefactor Member. Ratcliffe was a protégé of Sir Julian Huxley, a lifelong official of Britain’s Eugenics Society who had himself co-founded Prince Philip’s World Wildlife Fund only three years earlier in pursuit of his eugenic aims, i.e. mass population reduction. Or, as Prince Philip put it, "In the event that I am reincarnated, I would like to return as a deadly virus, in order to contribute something to solve overpopulation." This is not an offhand quote by the Prince—he has repeatedly expressed the same wish.

Speculation Unlimited, Inc.

How much money do these cap-and-traitors wield, which can be deployed to jack up the price of carbon swaps? On March 19, the Investor Network on Climate Risk (INCR), including British Petroleum, Allianz Insurance (the world’s largest insurance company), DuPont, etc., held an event in Washington, D.C., where they demanded immediate "mandatory reductions in greenhouse gases". Chaired by Norman Dean, Director of Friends of the Earth, the INCR said it represented a $4 trillion pool of funds demanding green ventures. Following the lead of the INCR, the Investor Group on Climate Change in Australia, which includes such heavyweights as AMP Capital, BT Financial Group, Colonial First State and Goldman Sachs JBWere, called for carbon trading to be introduced quickly to "remove uncertainty", bragging that it represented $225 billion in funds under management.
Al Gore has his snout in the trough, too. He is a principal in the London-based hedge fund, Generation Investment Management (GIM), set up solely to broker and speculate in carbon swaps. Set up by David Blood, the former CEO of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, the firm is otherwise known as "Blood and Gore". That, unfortunately, is no joke.
 

Sea Levels Are Rising? Baloney!

Sea levels are not at all in a generally rising mode over the globe, Swedish expert Dr. Nils-Axel Mörner, probably the world’s leading expert on sea levels, told Executive Intelligence Review in an exclusive interview on June 6, which was picked up by Fox News’ Brit Hume on June 25. It is certainly not rising in the Maldives, Tuvalu, or Vanuatu—all notorious sites where computer models predict flooding, Dr. Mörner said. Even the satellite altimetry shows no sea level rise. Mörner said that most scientists know these facts and are silent about it for fear of losing funding. Mörner is head of the Paleogeophysics and Geodynamics program at Stockholm University, and served as an Expert Reviewer for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 2001 and 2007. He has made firsthand investigations of most of the sites in question. True field observations must have a higher credibility than computer models and wishes, he said. Dr. Mörner said that of the 22 authors of the sea level chapter in the latest IPCC report, not one of them was a sea level expert. The three leading authors of the chapter were from Austria, a landlocked nation without a coastline! Mörner charged that, as shown by the chapters of the report that deal with malaria and sea level, the IPCC appoints people whom they know will write only what they are told to write, and what fits the pre-set agenda.

Who else in Australia is doing the bidding of the City of London, selling Australia down the tube?

Australia has been sold down the tube the past forty years. We all know our industries have been destroyed and our infrastructure is largely foreign owned, as are our farms (often by the Yanks). What's left, oh yes, holes in the ground! Our mines are being bought by the Chinese (if they were not already owned by the NWO Oligarchy)!

There are a number of esteemed government figures that have deliberately participated in this sell-out. These figures have turned their back on their public duty to the people of Australia, and aided foreign interests in gaining control of our fair country.

Who are these figures, these people who despise us? Are they shadowy, working behind the scenes? Are they very public? They are both. They are in government. They are in industry. They are appointed to roles by people of influence, both by government and other individuals and organisations.

Here's one example. John Hewson, compliments of the CEC...

John Hewson, running dog for the City of London

Dr John Hewson is a tool of the City of London’s 30-year demolition of Australian industry who, like his partner-in-crime Ross Garnaut, is pushing the carbon tax to finish Australia off, Citizens Electoral Council leader Craig Isherwood charged today.

“Every mug who rocked up to the carbon tax rallies on Sunday is being suckered by the City of London bankers for whom John Hewson and his accomplices smashed Australian manufacturing and family farms and reduced the national economy to a globalised quarry,” he said.

“Their carbon ‘price’ has got absolutely nothing to do with the environment; instead, it is an economic assault on Australia, a continuation of the free trade, financial deregulation ‘reforms’ instigated by Hewson personally in the late 1970s on behalf of the City of London’s Hill Samuel bank [now Macquarie Bank].

“The very people who shut down our factories, drove 100,000 family farmers off the land, and gave us an unstable currency, high interest rates, privatisation, private toll roads, the GST, unaffordable housing, and an unpayable $1.3 trillion foreign debt, are the very people who want to hit us with the carbon tax.”

Mr Isherwood detailed Hewson’s record as a flunkey for the City of London:

* In 1975, Hewson was deployed from his U.S. job at the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which was dictating financial deregulation to the world, to spearhead such ‘reforms’ in Australia, first at the Reserve Bank and then as economic adviser to Fraser government treasurers Phillip Lynch and John Howard.
* Hewson personally organised the Campbell Committee, the Australia Financial System Inquiry, headed by Keith Campbell, to ‘recommend’ the float of the dollar and opening Australia up to foreign banks. Committee member Keith Halkerston was a close business associate of Hill Samuel Australia, a subsidiary of the politically-connected Hill Samuel of London (whose longtime chairman was deputy head of intelligence for the British Foreign Office), which prepared years in advance to manage the dollar float.
* At the same time he was economic adviser to Treasurer John Howard, Hewson worked for Hill Samuel, preparing it to take advantage of the reforms recommended by the Campbell Committee.
* Hawke and Keating gleefully implemented the Campbell recommendations when they took power in 1983, and Hill Samuel Australia rebranded itself as Macquarie Bank, with John Hewson as Executive Director. Macquarie both directed, and was the chief beneficiary, of the Hawke-Keating economic reforms, including compulsory superannuation and national competition policy.

Mr Isherwood continued, “Hewson’s history shows he is nothing but a lackey for the City of London, an economic hit man like his fellow carbon economist Ross Garnaut.

“It’s time to stand up to these crooks and their City of London masters, by not swallowing their carbon tax scam, but instead adopting protectionist, national banking policies to reindustrialise Australia.”

You just have to ask "WHY" when a scare campaign erupts!

What a blow-up we had recently over live export of cattle. What damage it will do to our farmers, costing $100,000 a day in feed whilst cattle are in holding! Who will buy out broke farmers? THE INTERNATIONALS OF COURSE!!! And we know there are food shortages world wide (if you keep your ear to the ground :), so is that something to do with why this suddenly erupted?

THINK.Read CECs report and weep for our nation.

Isherwood: Gillard/Greens aren’t saving cows, they are pushing genocide

“Who will save the farmers?” Citizens Electoral Council leader Craig Isherwood demanded to know, following the Gillard government’s suspension of live cattle exports to Indonesia for up to six months.

“This whole issue is Green/media bulldust,” he declared. “The government’s decision doesn’t suddenly ensure animal welfare. It doesn’t suddenly change the practices of small-time abattoir operations in Indonesia.

“What it does do is bludgeon thousands of food producers in the cattle industry, and deny literally millions of people in Indonesia an important source of protein, which is precisely their intention,” he charged.

Mr Isherwood charged that the British Crown has ordered the Gillard-Greens coalition government to “cull” the population of Australia, and of the world given Australia’s crucial importance in world food production.

“In every policy Gillard is pushing—small population, shutting down the Murray-Darling Basin food bowl, the carbon tax, and now this—she is dutifully carrying out the genocidal depopulation directives of the Queen and her consort Prince Philip’s World Wide Fund for Nature.

“As a proud member of the Fabian Society, all of whose 19th Century British founders such as the Webbs, H.G. Wells, George Bernard Shaw, and Bertrand Russell preached depopulation (and whose chief financier was Sir Ernest Cassel, the closest personal friend of the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII), Gillard is committed to genocide as well; not surprisingly, it was her fellow Fabian and depopulation fanatic Kelvin Thomson who led the supposed backbench revolt in the Federal ALP caucus to force the blanket ban on live exports to Indonesia.”

The CEC National Secretary pointed out the suspension would have devastating consequences.

“As Four Corners admitted, Indonesians don’t have enough refrigeration, so they rely on the live export trade to allow them to buy their beef fresh. By denying them the trade, the Indonesian people are being denied precious protein which enables them to live longer and stronger. The impact of this will be exactly what Prince Philip’s darling, the eugenicist and pioneering greenie Macfarlane Burnet sought to achieve in the 1940s, when he advocated poisoning waterways and crops in Asian nations with biological agents to cull their populations.

“Bob Katter was more right than perhaps he realised when he said, ‘We have to assume [the Greens’] solution is to starve a lot of people to death’.

“And as for the Australian producers, this is a body-blow. A six-month suspension puts them at the mercy of the banks—who have none—and it gives the banks an excuse to foreclose on family farming operations, just as they were tipped off to do in the Murray-Darling Basin. The decision-makers in Canberra undoubtedly know this.”

Mr Isherwood said this decision was the latest attack in a long-term campaign by successive governments to drive family farmers off the land, which have included:

* The staged destruction of the Australian Wheat Board single desk on behalf of the multinational grain cartel companies such as Cargill (other commodities’ single desks, e.g. sugar, were also destroyed);
* Macquarie Bank’s design and enforcement of National Competition Policy, to smash whole industries, including the dairy industry, and strip farmers of any protection from the predatory pricing of the Coles-Woolworths duopoly;
* The Coles/Woolies/ACCC price war against farmers, directed by the British gang running Coles;
* Bans on standard agricultural land clearing practices, to stop farmers from growing food and feeding livestock;
* The deliberate buy-up of prime agricultural land to turn into green reserves and national parks, which, along with economic attrition, has reduced the total land used for food production in Australia by more than 100 million hectares in just a few decades;
* Legislation such as Queensland’s Wild Rivers laws to squash any development of the top end into a new food bowl;
* Exposing prime agricultural land to ruin by multinational mining and gas companies;
* Tax breaks for managed investment scams to buy up farmland for tree plantations;
* Forcing food producers to transport their goods on more expensive road transport, by shutting down railways or prioritising existing rail for mining;
* The deliberate disregard for rebuilding roads and bridges in rural areas damaged or destroyed by the recent floods;
* The Water Act 2007, and the Murray-Darling Basin Authority’s plan, to shut down the national food bowl by stripping irrigators of their water entitlements, and encouraging the banks to mass-foreclose on the farmers and their communities.
* The carbon tax/ETS, which will force thousands of farmers to convert their land from food production to carbon storage, i.e. tree plantations.

Mr Isherwood continued, “The Queen’s husband’s WWF is targeting the beef industry in their plot to establish a global ‘Sustainable Beef Industry’ a euphemism for slashing beef production to help slash the world’s population.

“Therefore, it wouldn’t matter if the cattle in Indonesia were being fed alfalfa and played Vivaldi’s Four Seasons as they were dispatched; the Royal green mafia, which includes the people-hating animal liberationists, and their accomplices in the government, are determined to destroy it.

“There are many reasons why it is better to process meat in our own abattoirs than export live animals, but the way this decision was taken was calculated to destroy not just live exports, but the meat industry in general.”

He concluded, “The fight to save the industry is a fight for the welfare of humanity, including the millions in other countries who depend upon our food. If you want to win that fight, join the CEC.”
