I don't care, go ahead with the link, just didn't want it to be at my site, as anyone who posts these gets hammered with traffic. (and who knows what else)
Weird that the Google cache was cleaned out of ALL Wikileaks material, not just the Palin stuff. Plus, Wikileaks itself went offline, they survived just about every other attempt to knock 'em down.. Someone WAS very heavy handed, which is very telling.. Which is also the M.O. of this campaign, over-react, rather than let things die down, the way things like this are usually handled. Censoring the internet in such an obvious way.. crazy!
Btw, the internet (if one were to see it as living entity) views censorship as damage and routes around it.. Witness the torrents.

progressivealaska.blogspot.com/There is a torrent out there: thepiratebay.org/ (put 'palin' in the search box) If you want this, go via the torrent route, I'm paranoid enough not to post them.. What is really weird about this, is that even the cached pages on Google for the Wikileaks Sarah Palin hacked emails are gone.
Just flippin' gone!
Like this one.
And this one.
For non-techies, let me see if I can explain this.
1. Wikileaks had a webpage or two about the "Hacked Sarah Palin emails" on its own site (Wikileaks) servers. 2. You can't get to those Wikileaks webpages anymore. 3. You can't even get to the Wikileaks site itself anymore. 4. Google had its own cached webpages from the "Wikileaks Hacked Sarah Palin emails webpages", located on its own (Google) servers, and you can't get to those anymore.
Does the word "Conspiracy" ring a bell?
One might logically assume that someone with Federal power intervened at both Wikileaks and Google, and said "shut it down!".
One might even go further and assume that someone with Federal power said "if you don't do what we say, we'll arrest you!"
Note: Earlier in the day, I downloaded the Wikileaks Zip file of the "Hacked Sarah Palin emails".
After looking at the stuff, I ended up deleting the Zip file and its contents since they were no more than what had been displayed at Wikileaks. I guess I should have kept them for ya'll. *g*
Additional Note: Wikileaks, at the time the "Hacked Sarah Palin emails" webpage was up, had a "curious" little sentence that said, in effect, "we're looking through the rest of the emails and should "interesting other stuff" be observed, we'll post it."

Eyesbleed is in Odessa TX. (on his public profile) That is in the western part, so hopefully he wasn't seriously affected. He hasn't signed in since the eighth, hope all is OK.

Thanks to Taf for pointing this out, I had no idea this Yoko blog existed: 100acorns.blogspot.com/t's been 44 years since my book of conceptual instructions, GRAPEFRUIT was first published in 1964.
On 15 June 1968, John Lennon & I planted two acorns for peace at Coventry Cathedral. It was the first of our many Peace 'Events'.
In the summer of 1996, I picked up from where I left off, and wrote 100 ACORNS.
Starting on the 40th anniversary of the Acorn Peace Event on 15 June 2008, I will publish here an 'Acorn' every day for 100 days.
After each day of sharing the instructions, you should feel free to question, discuss, and/or report what your mind tells you.
I'm just planting the seeds.
Have fun. Love, yoko June 2008Well, it's "very Yoko" for lack of a better expression. If I've calculated correctly, the "acorns" stop on Sept. 22, so make your comments if you so wish..

That's a great video, watch the rest of the series: What's chilling is the idea of no dept = no money. And consider this: If I'm someone with a subprime or other loan I can't possibly pay off, why would I bother doing anything other than send the keys to the bank and walk away? What, I'm supposed to feel shame doing such a thing? Well guess what, shame or not, many many people are in this position, as you can't reasonably expect someone flipping burgers at McDonald's to pay back a loan on a $500,000 house. How many loans like this are out there? Way WAY too many.. It's OK, the mortgage originators and real estate agents got theirs.. And the investors betting that the value of these "loan assets" would go up forever got theirs.. Bear Stearns and Lehman told them so.. Oops.. Foreclosures = no dept = no money.. (as a foreclosed property owner is not paying off the dept) What to do, oh my.. Oh yeah, tell the debtors with the worst subprime loans to refinance, and they only have to pay 90% of what they owe, and we'll call it a "bailout". The taxpayer will pick up the tab, yay! www.youtube.com/watch?v=sanOXoWl0kcwww.youtube.com/watch?v=kTv1fo6sKmowww.youtube.com/watch?v=3qicabStQkcwww.youtube.com/watch?v=7kpSbkaD4tM

Calling in an expert: www.tickerforum.org/cgi-ticker/akcs-www?forum=TickerThe owner of the forum lists his blog posts in the above section, with the forum serving as a place to make comments, but the blog is where you get the real education. Highly recommended.

The latest is Lehman going chapter 11, but much more to the story of course. The Dow dropped just a shade over 500 today, it might rally back up this week if the magicians work their dark arts to keep it going for a little while longer..
What do you think is on the horizon?

Well we'll see.. I hope he listens to the people who are no doubt telling him to cancel, I'm sure his kids are freaking. "Not letting the terrorists win" is not enough reason to get yourself blown up. Love him or hate him, it just wouldn't be the same without him around.

I don't know how someone who ordered that the concession stands at Boston only serve water in plastic cups, as he was afraid of people throwing water bottles on stage can possibly function with the threat of a suicide bomber..

Ah what a great show, briskly paced, and the payoff in the last couple of minutes, just in time. Brilliant writing. Of course many a judge will admonish the jury that this "isn't like Perry Mason". (well, maybe less at this late date)
However, I remember a police chief of a town I won't mention telling a group of us that court was like a "play" and whoever "gave the best performance" generally won the case.. Seemed a bit sarcastic and bitter about it.. Small claims cases do seem to be strictly about the evidence, I've seen a few in real life, no lawyers involved.

Messing around with space-time may not have turned out too well at Montauk.. If the stories are to be believed of course.

A Poe Scholar, wonder if he ever wondered about the Pepper appearance? BALTIMORE — Edgar Allan Poe never lived in one city for long, and ever since he died and was buried here in 1849 this city has claimed him as its own.
Edward Pettit, a Poe scholar, argues that Poe’s remains should be moved from his grave in Baltimore, saying that it was Philadelphia that framed Poe’s outlook.
“Philadelphia can keep its broken bell and its cheese steak, but Poe’s body isn’t going anywhere,” said Jeff Jerome, curator of the Poe House in Baltimore. He will debate Edward Pettit in January.
Edgar Allan Poe’s grave, now in Baltimore.
But last year Edward Pettit, a Poe scholar in Philadelphia, began arguing that Poe’s remains belong in Philadelphia. Poe wrote many of his most noteworthy works there and, according to Mr. Pettit, that city’s rampant crime and violence in the mid-19th century framed Poe’s sinister outlook and inspired his creation of the detective fiction genre.

Well one of these days, if I ever take Jan up on his invitation, maybe we'll stop by and say hello. Sounds delish-iously clandestine. 2009? New York? Well, I suspect Jan might be a bit nervous about the security guarding our borders of late.. Can't say I blame him.. Besides, I need a new pair of wooden shoes. ;D

Monocles? That just goes to show that just about anything can lead someone here. (although "nothing is real" typed in the Google search will show us at the top of the page for those in a philosophical mood) Don't lurk too much, have a say if you see fit. The Ringo thread must be about Rotogravure, one of my all time favorites. Welcome!

It's come up before, might have been that stretch when you were away.. Which if I'm not mistaken, led to a theory that John was replaced by.. another ST actor.

Unless she's presently only 4 months pregnant or not pregnant at all... And the daughter may have given birth at a time not near the crazy eight hour leaking amniotic fluid flight. In spite of the photos that have been "found" of late showing Sarah Palin "showing", I think the one truth is that she never was pregnant. The other details, who knows.
