Reporter: “you are being lied to” about Middle East attacks

by Joel McDurmon on Sep 18, 2012

Canadian reporter Brian Lilley totally debunks the claim that the Middle East attacks resulted from an “offensive” YouTube video. Hardly, he says. It was a coordinated attack that is easy to see and has been confirmed by many official sources and reports, some of which the MSM refuses to show its viewers. Other Middle East protests that do cite the video have been clearly organized and staged, with people showing up with several printed copies of the same signs, and reports that some people are possibly even being paid to show up.

This week, even John McCain has joined other Congressmen who are questioning the media and White House version of the story. But the video story is being pumped and hyped in every possible way by the media.

In short, Lilley argues, the media and White House are lying to us about the reason for the attacks.

Media for Christ group got permit for movie believed to be ‘Innocence of Muslims’ | 89.3 KPCC

 

A screenshot from a trailer for controversial anti-Islam film, "Innocence of Muslims."

 

The organization that received the film permit for a movie believed to be the controversial “Innocence of Muslims” was Duarte, Calif.-based nonprofit advocacy group Media for Christ.

Karen Herrera, deputy city manager for the City of Duarte, told KPCC that Media for Christ received a permit last year for a movie called “Desert Warriors” through Film LA, an organization that gives film permits for the County of Los Angeles. Herrera said she was told that information from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s department.

People involved in the film believe “Desert Warriors” later became “Innocence of Muslims.”

Meanwhile, the website The Smoking Gun reported Friday that Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, another man connected to the film, became a government informant after his 2009 arrest for bank fraud.

Joseph Nassralla Abdelmasih is the president for Media for Christ, which identifies itself as a non-denominational evangelical Christian organization that provides spiritual aid and humanitarian assistance. Nassralla has been introduced at speaking events as a Coptic Christian and human rights activist from Egypt.

Last year, Nassralla participated in a demonstration asking for Sheriff Lee Baca to resign over his praise of the Council on American Islamic Relations, an Islamic civil liberties group.

“I fled to America with my family because of the violence directed against me for my Christian faith,” Nasralla said in an announcement published on Jihadwatch.org. “Sheriff Baca must be fired, and the County must apologize to all of us who have suffered at the hands of the Muslim brotherhood.”

KPCC made efforts to reach Media for Christ on Friday. Calls to the nonprofit’s office were not answered.

Permit confirmed

Paul Audley, president of Film LA, confirmed to KPCC on Friday that the permit was issued on Aug. 18, 2011. He referred further questions to the County of Los Angeles, which said it would not release the film permit due to safety concerns.

Nakoula Basseley Nakoula has also emerged as another local man involved in the film. Nakoula told the Associated Press that he was in charge of the film’s logistics.

Nakoula has a criminal past and was convicted for drugs and engaging in identity theft, according to the Los Angeles Times. The Times also found an actor who received a check from Nakoula’s address for participating in the film.

It is unclear how “Innocence of Muslims” was funded. Media for Christ had revenues of more than $1 million last year, according to tax records.

It’s Official: Joel Silver Buys Historic Venice Post Office For Company HQ – Deadline.com

 

VENICE POST OFFICE WINDWARD CIRCLE

 

Back in June, Joel Silver inked a 12-film distribution deal with Universal Pictures a month after he ended his 25-year relationship at Warner Bros. At the time, we told you the Matrix and Sherlock Holmes producer made a pitch to the Venice Neighborhood Council to purchase the 1939-built U.S. Post Office on Windward Circle. Now that deal has been completed, with the facility to become the new home of Silver Pictures once restoration and renovations are completed sometime in 2014. The building was constructed as part of the Federal Works Progress Administration and is the latest historical structure purchased by Silver, who bought the Frank Lloyd Wright-built Storer House. “As a longtime preservationist of architecture, I’m thrilled to move forward with the restoration and renovation of the former Venice Post Office,” said Silver. “While we are still in the very early stages of the process, I am committed to the rehabilitation of the building and its unique WPA features and the restoration of the treasured Edward Biberman ‘Story of Venice’ mural. I am also committed to being a good neighbor in the Venice community, whether through providing public access to the space or in developing programs for the community related to film, art and architecture.”

60 lab studies confirm cancer link to polio vaccine – by Terrence Aym – Helium

Dr. Maurice Hilleman was a very angry man, and if his 2002 allegations are true, he had every right to be.

Hilleman made mind-numbing allegations during an in-depth interview in “The Health Century” — a landmark book and later a PBS television series.  During the interview, the doctor alleges that giant pharmaceutical company Merck produced and distributed dangerous vaccines containing deadly viruses that have infected millions of people.

Hundreds of millions may be doomed….

If his allegations are true, hundreds of millions may be doomed to early painful deaths. The masses that have already been inoculated may be little better than walking dead men and women—zombies going through the motions of life with no knowledge that biological time bombs are slowly ticking away in their tainted, diseased cells.

Who was this man—he died in 2005—to make such a charge? To simply make a charge is all well and good, but was he perhaps mistaken in his allegation?

The best way to make a value judgment regarding a person’s assertions is to check their experience, knowledge and accomplishments.

Dr. Hilleman developed Merck’s vaccine program. Beyond that milestone, he also oversaw the creation of more than three dozen vaccines given to billions. He developed more vaccines than any other single person in the history of medicine.

The good doctor was also a member of the the American Philosophical Society, American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Institute of Medicine, and the U.S. National Academy of Science. He receieved many honors and awards during his illustrious career including a rare lifetime achievement award from the World Health Organization (WHO).

Among all of his many accomplishments as a pioneer medical researcher, Hilleman was also one of the first to raise the red flag, that infected monkey viruses might have contaminated vaccines—especially the ubiquitous polio vaccine.

Speaking once about the efficacy of vaccines in the war against disease, Hilleman voiced this bombshell: “Vaccines have to be considered the bargain basement technology for the 20th Century.”

Are many cancer cases caused by the polio vaccine?

Back in 2002, the prestigious medical journal “Lancet” went to press with astounding data that suggested the polio vaccine was contaminated. The study also presented evidence that nearly half of the new 55,000 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma cases that were occurring annually had their root cause in the vaccine, the peer-reviewed, published study claimed.

Parade of Chariots – Venice Beach today

Procession starts at 10:00 AM Sunday at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium and proceeds south on Main St, with three fully decorated four-story tall chariots leading a parade toward the Ocean Front Walk Plaza at Venice Beach. The festival will arrive at Venice Beach at noon. Festival ends 6pm.

Main points:
Worship of 3 deities of Hare Krishna hence 3 chariots.
Started in USA by their guru in San Francisco in 1967.
Distribution of food to public from their gods.
Chanting and dancing as forms of worship.

Here’s some history from the Festival of chariots website:
“Sometimes referred to as Ratha Yatra, literally meaning Chariot Festival. Ratha Yatra originated 5,000 years ago in India, on the East Coast state of Orrisa, in a city called Jagannatha Puri. 

The Festival celebrates Lord Krishna’s return to Vrindaban and is held annually to honor Lord Jagannatha, which means Lord of the Universe. Lord Jagannatha is a particular Deity form of Lord Krishna, fashioned from neem wood and brightly painted. The residents of Puri have been worshipping this form for many centuries. Five hundred years ago, Lord Chaitanya, the reincarnation of Lord Krishna used to daily visit Lord Jagannatha in the temple and see Him in a mood of intense separation, much like Srimati Radharani who was parted from her beloved Krishna most of her days. 
For the festivities; there are three chariots, one for each of the three deities; Lord Jagannatha, Lord Balarama and Lady Subhadra. The canopied chariots are decorated with flowers and balloons and are pulled with long, thick ropes by hundreds of people. The chariots are accompanied by a procession of devotees who are ecstatically dancing and chanting the Lord’s Holy Names: 
Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare.
 
The first time the Festival of Chariots was performed outside of India was on July 9, 1967 in San Francisco, under the supervision of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896-1977). Srila Prabhupada, as he is more affectionately known, is the Founder-Acarya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) and is the tenth generation from Lord Chaitanya. Srila Prabhupada lead the Hare Krishna Movement, guiding his disciples to open temples and perform festivals all over the world.

 Prabhupada first got the idea for performing the festival in San Francisco, while looking out the window of his room above Frederick Street. Noticing flatbed trucks passing below, he thought of putting the Jagannatha deities on the back of such a truck and conducting the Ratha Yatra festival. He had even sketched a truck with a four-pillared canopy on the back and decorated it with flags, bells, and flower garlands. And he had called in his disciple Syamasundara: Make me this cart for Ratha Yatra, Now, ready and sitting outside the temple on Frederick Street, was the cart – a yellow Hertz rental truck, complete with five-foot columns and a pyramidal cloth canopy. 
When the devotees asked what else they should do, Prabhupäda said that the devotees should make a procession, distribution of prasadam (food offered to Lord Jagannatha) and kirtana (chanting the names of the Lord). The people should get a chance to see Lord Jagannätha and chant Hare Krishna. There should be chanting and dancing in front of the cart throughout the procession. Do everything nicely,” Prabhupäda said. Do it as well as you can, and Lord Jagannatha will be satisfied.” 
From there in San Francisco, the Festival of the Chariots has been performed every year since, and now there are festivals celebrating Lord Jagannatha in every country in the world. The Festival of the Chariots was first performed in Los Angeles in 1977 and is now in its 30th year. 

Dark Knight Rises, Colorado shooter first target Manhattan NY


Inside Edition recently aired a clip claiming that the Colorado mass murder’s first target was the Batman Priemere in the upper Westside of Manhattan NY.

His goal was to kill Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Anne Hathaway, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and the entire cast of Batman Dark Knight Rises, but for some reason believed the New York police were on to him.

This is Ken Cole reporting the news as I see it.

Avid Sells Consumer Audio, Video Divisions…

imgBurlington, MA (July 2, 2012)—Avid, the audio company behind Pro Tools, Venue live sound consoles and more, is divesting its consumer businesses, selling its consumer audio products, including its M-Audio line, to inMusic, the parent company of Akai Professional, Alesis and Numark. Avid’s consumer video editing line is being purchased by Corel Corporation. Avid will also reduce its permanent workforce by 20 percent.The consumer audio products being sold to inMusic include M-Audio brand keyboards, controllers, interfaces, speakers and digital DJ equipment and other product lines. Avid will continue to develop and sell its Pro Tools line of software and hardware, as well as associated I/O devices including Mbox and Fast Track.
Separately, the company’s consumer video editing line  being sold to Corel Corporation, a consumer software company headquartered in Ottawa, Canada, include, Avid Studio, Pinnacle Studio, and the Avid Studio App for the Apple iPad, as well as other legacy video capture products.

The divested product lines contributed approximately $91 million of Avid’s 2011 revenue of $677 million. As part of the transactions, certain employees of Avid will transfer to each acquiring company. Avid estimates that the proceeds from these transactions will be approximately $17 million, subject to closing inventory adjustment, with a portion held in escrow. Both transactions are expected to close today, July 2, 2012.

Avid also plans to reduce the number of its employees as it streamlines operations, with approximately 20 percent of its permanent employee base impacted by the divestitures and headcount reduction plans. The company currently expects to incur a restructuring charge of approximately $19 to $23 million related to these actions and other associated measures. The company’s cash balance on March 31, 2012 was $49.7 million. Avid expects proceeds from the sales to offset most of the restructuring charges paid in 2012.

“The changes we are announcing today make Avid a more focused and agile company,” said Gary Greenfield, CEO of Avid. “By streamlining and simplifying operations, we expect to deliver improved financial performance and partner more closely with our enterprise and professional customers. Our objective remains to provide these customers with the innovative solutions that allow them to create the most listened to, most watched and most loved media in the world. I’m excited about our future prospects.”

WHAT IS THE CAA?

What is the CAA?

The CAA is the Creative Arts Agency

The CAA represents many of the A-list of Hollywood as well as top musicians and sports stars.

They boast an enviable client list including: Brad Pitt, Sean Penn, George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Sandra Bullock, Tom Hanks, James Cameron, Steven Speilberg, Bruce Willis… the list goes on.

Such is the power of the agency their offices are nicknamed the “Death Star”

The CAA has six partners: Richard Lovett, Bryan Lourd, Kevin Huvane, Rick Nicita, David “Doc” O’Connor, and Rob Light.

But the main power, lies with Richard Lovatt and Bryan Lourd.

These men can make or break a career; if they don’t like you, you won’t get work, and they are feared throughout the industry.

Richard Lovatt is Jewish with a passion for Yoga, his brilliance at securing big names, has seen his rise to the top of the CAA.

Bryan Lourd was the husband of Carrie Fisher, before leaving her for another man, when he “came out” as homosexual in 1994.

The studios tend to do what they suggest, as they hold great influence within the industry;  Name any top movie or TV show, and the chances are the majority of the cast, as well as the director, are clients of the Creative Arts Agency.

 

“You must be a Conservative Republican…”

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered
altitude and spotted a man below.
She shouted to him, “Excuse me, can
you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I
don’t know where I am.”
The man looked at his GPS and replied,
“You are in a balloon approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above sea level.
You are 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.”
She rolled her eyes and said, “You must be a Republican.”

“I am,” replied the man. “How did you know?”

“Well,” answered the balloonist, “Everything you told me is
technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and I’m still lost.
Frankly, you’ve not been much help to me.”

The man smiled and responded, “You must be a Democrat.”
“I am,” replied the woman. “How did you know?”

“Well,” said the man, “you don’t know where you are or where you’re going.
You’ve risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air.
You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect ME to solve your problem.

You’re in EXACTLY the same position
you were in before we met, but somehow now, it’s MY fault.
