Time Traveler Question in Chaplin Film Video Solved!

I previously provided a link to the fascinating video of an apparent time traveler from a Charlie Chaplin film clip in 1928.  Millions of people joined in the mystery on YouTube to try and solve the question of whether the person in the film really had a cell phone in her hand.  (It turned out to be a man in drag by the way, an extra in the Chaplin film.)  Though it was a rather ludicrous question, the time traveler suggestion really sparked people's imaginations. The video has received nearly 5 million views with thousands of commentaries attempting to answer the question.

Recently the Discovery News Channel solved the case.  I'm glad they came to the same conclusion a few others did that I had agreed with.

Here's a link to the original time traveler questioned video:


Here's the Discovery News Channel's answer, the same conclusion I came to from my lite research on the Internet from technology in 1928.


I was intrigued with time travel a while back when I designed www.BrainChannels.com, but haven't had the "time" since to delve back into it.  The issue of a time shift always seems to naturally assert itself every year when our clocks change anyway.  The time change most always throws me off kilter internally.  For instance, here I am typing this blog and it's 1:36 a.m. on a weekday night. I've lost all track of time!

I was selling cell phones in 1984, does that make me a time traveler?

Singer Neil Young Gets Burned By Bad Karma - Charitable Image is a Lie

Singer Neil Young, a nasty greedy hideous man, got a little taste of karma when his belongings got burned in a warehouse Monday.  All the liberal fascist pigs who have supported this evil Satanist's fraud image are writing condolences on SFGate's comment section as if the guy's the Pope of the San Francisco Bay area.

As previously reported three weeks ago, I wrote a little blurb post about how upset people were in Mr. Young's life who he ripped off, including his nanny, in spite of the fact he owns nearly half of San Mateo county.  Young's a tightwad asshole who hides behind a charitable image he uses others to promote.  He actually charges people for helping him with his charitable projects! He's an evil man and all you have to do is look at the guy and see him for what he is.

It makes me sick all the people who think this main is a saint and promote him as such.  Whatever Neil Young does is for himself, image and tax write-offs.  Note how he's hoarding stuff in a warehouse instead of auctioning it off to charity? 

Mr. Young, karma's a bitch dude and you just can't escape it.  That's why you're such a control freak tight wad greedy asshole because you know karma's on the way for your dirty, nasty deeds using good people.

Neil Young is not a good man.  I'll just leave it at that.

Hilarious Gregory Brothers Music Videos

Now that I've featured a few of their videos on this blog, I thought I'd give credit to an extremely talented group, the Gregory Brothers.  I consider this music brilliant because it acts as a bridge between rap and music using people's unscripted words in normal speech by converting their natural voice inflections into melodies.   Maybe this is a way out of the rap dredge into a new means of converting everyone's voice into what the Gregory Brothers refer to as "unintentional singers".

The Gregory Brothers can turn anything into music and make anyone famous such as what happened to Antoine Dodson who appeared on the news talking about a local rapist.  The song video, Bed Intruder, (see below) has had 39 million views since  August, 2010 and the song has reached top Billboard R&B #3 and iTunes top hits.

Wikipedia's description of the news broadcast of Dodson:


Dodson was interviewed on July 28, 2010, by NBC affiliate WAFF-48 News after the alleged attempted rape of his sister by an intruder in her bedroom, in the "projects" of Lincoln Park.
A frame from the viral "Bed Intruder Song" music video, which sourced its footage from an interview NBC affiliate WAFF-48 News conducted with Antoine.
The video of the interview caught attention due to the passionate and flamboyant style of his delivery, speaking directly to the camera, in which he directly addressed the people of his neighborhood as well as the would-be rapist, and his use of street vernacular.

How the song was created:

The pitch contour of Antoine Dodson's voice was manipulated to make him appear to sing. Michael Gregory told Wired Magazine, "For this one, I really wanted to listen to the contours of [Antoine Dodson's] voice, and the way that he was emoting. I’ve done this enough so that when I heard him talk, I could hear the melody, and that melody kind of changes connotation depending on what key I put it in. Then I do the instrumental track and put it on top." - Wikipedia



I've since ciphered through several of the brother videos and came up with my favorites:

When Airlines Go Belly Up Our Holograms Will Travel

I guess I'm a bit unusual because I have a $50 Virgin Airways credit I know I won't be using in spite of the fact there are many low ball fares for as little as $39 to Los Angeles, Las Vegas and even $125 to New York. One of the reasons I won't be flying is because I don't want to be molested at the airport by strangers as is the new protocol.  Airport personnel are stepping up the intensity of body searches, groping and squeezing people's crotch and breast areas for those who opt out of body scanners.  Body scanners essentially show your bare body to complete strangers and give you a high dose of radiation.

Yesterday I was talking with a retired airline stewardess from US Airways.  The lady said she got out of flying after 25 years due to all the intensity after 9/11's new security laws.  We got to speculating the future of air travel was about to radically change.  We both agreed that in the near future when gas and oil costs rise, this will be the final nail in the coffin for inexpensive civilian air travel.  Many airlines simply won't survive.

Here are some ideas we came up with of how people will overcome the limitations of no air travel since only the wealthy will be able to afford it.

1.  People will use video conferencing
2.  People will use more advanced 3D holographic technology to meet or attend speaking engagements
3.  People will harness the Internet to share information digitally and in virtual meeting rooms.


Here's a recent presentation and example of how people can appear virtually in another place for a meeting or speaking engagement.



This is the first hologram of someone on television:




Back in the 1990's I envisioned people using holograms to communicate.  My particular unique idea was in the area of entertainment however. I had envisioned hologram nightclubs of top musicians recorded in holographic images performing as if in real life.  In a sense, it's a musician's dream to have a clone of one's self that makes money while one sleeps and tends to real life matters.  For instance,  I think they should now be able to record people like Barbra Streisand today as a 3D hologram to perform her songs for people to see her in concert in the future.  Imagine if we had a hologram of Aretha Franklin to last forever for future generations to enjoy?

At the time of my ideas I was friends with an Intel chip designer from Portland Oregon. He told me I could submit my idea to Intel for consideration of funding.  That was before the dot com bubble burst however so I since gave up the idea to submit a proposal.  It's always easy to come up with ideas for the future but it's very difficult to implement them. I had ideas of GPS pet finders back in the mid-1990s.  Most all of my ideas exist in some form today. 

The thing with this holograph and 3D technology is that as kids of the 1950's and 1960's era most of us were introduced to it through the Wizard of Oz (the Wizard's appearance in 3D technology) and at Disneyland's Haunted House.  3D and hologram's have been around a long time and now it's finally turning into a viable industry with the advent of such 3D films as Avatar.  Going one step further, some scientists even speculate in theory our universe is really one big hologram. What's up with that?


Primitive versions of the future 3D holographic world environments can be found in www.SecondLife.com.  Another example is www.LegalTech.com where people attend classes in a conference environment.  Essentially the envisioned hologram environment will be similar to Star Trek Next Generation's holodeck where people have trouble deciphering what is real and what isn't.

Today we have the computer power to record holograms all over the world. We should begin to record holograms of the great artists of today before it's too late.

The REAL Reason Why NASA's Banned Moonwalking

If you really think about it, it's kind of strange NASA's never been back to the moon with a manned mission since the late 1960's. By now many thought with all of our great new technologies we would have had tourist flights to the moon and back. Clearly there was an industry for people who wanted to visit the moon, if not just a flyby trip. Better yet, why not build something on the moon as a stepping stone to other planets? According to a few former NASA employees, there's a good reason why we've never been back to the moon.

According to these excellent videos, the reason why we haven't gone back is because the moon's swarming with scary and aggressive extraterrestrial life forms!  It's even alleged in NASA photographs that massive alien bases and structures exist on the moon.


This is eyewitness testify of a former NASA employee being shown top secret photographs.


This video goes through history of strange objects and phenomenon on the moon up to NASA landing.  It shows NASA footage an purported evidence of massive extraterrestrial structures.


Then there's this recent article on AOL News, Some Say Moon Photos Show Signs of Alien Life:
"What NASA did not tell the American people is that it discovered the remains of an ancient lunar civilization, and to this day, that data and those artifacts have been withheld from the American people," claims Richard C. Hoagland, founder of The Enterprise Mission, an extensive private space research analysis website.
One interesting theory I've read about the moon is that it's allegedly hallow.  What's that all about?  A few scientists have been perplexed  to the extent they've even suggested that the moon's an artificial object:
Astronomy data indicates that the internal regions of the Moon are less dense than the outer, giving rise to the inevitable but outrageous speculation that it could be hollow. The eminent and late scientist Carl Sagan, a typical sceptic, had made the statement, "A natural satellite cannot be a hollow object." But meaning here that if it is hollow, it is not a natural satellite -- and therefore artificial.

Possibly the strongest evidence for it to be a 'hollow object' comes from the fact that when meteors strike the Moon, the latter rings like a bell. More specifically when the Apollo crew in November 20, 1969 released the lunar module, after returning to the orbiter, the module impact with the Moon caused their seismic equipment to register a continuous reverberation like a bell for more than an hour. The same effect occurred with Apollo 13's third stage which caused the Moon to ring for over three hours. So what's going on with the Moon?

Two Soviet scientists, Mikhail Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov, have spent much of their careers examining the facts compiled on lunar phenomena. Their conclusion is that the Moon is artificial, possibly a hollowed-out planet, and that it was steered from some distant region of the galaxy into a circular orbit around our planet (hence the extraordinary mystery of rock and Moon-dust age variations). They claim that intellectual life has existed in the Moon for eons. - Earth's Moon and Human Evolution - The Canadian National Newspaper

UFOs imprints on moon from long ago?

Sometimes one can deduce facts from the illogical absence of something, such as why the astronauts haven't gone back to the moon. Everyone knows the moon could have been a lucrative venture for the United States to use for its various experiments and operations.  Considering NASA recently announced Mars is the next destination for human travel (See Journeying to Mars on a One-Way Ticket - Discovery News), you've just got to wonder why the moon's out of the picture.

If one really thinks hard about it, there's just got to be a serious reason why NASA hasn't sent another manned mission to the moon.  It's not for lack of technology, practicality or for a lack of anything that could be gained from it.  Obviously something very serious has prevented human beings landing on the moon, especially since doing so had great commercial and economical value on earth.  All the other countries have also withheld visiting.  Some thing's really out there and it doesn't appear they have any sense of humor or we would have been back by now.

New Evidence of San Francisco Superior Court Judge Corruption

On October 29, 2010 in a SFGate.com article, Ulmer vs. Nava and the Independence of the Court, a former Vice President of the State Bar of California Peter Keane unleashed a huge red flag on what was happening in the San Francisco Superior Court system among judges.  The article was about Judge Richard B. Ulmer, a 30 year Partner attorney with Latham & Watkins LLP who was up against Michael Nava to retain his bench. The article described that the entire San Francisco judicial community was up in arms about the judicial election.

Judge Ulmer had recently been elected to the bench by Governor Schwarzenegger but his seat was being challenged, most likely due to his being a Republican in a liberal town.  Not only was he being challenged as a Republican, mind you, but as a highly political man who lacked sound judge skills as stated in my former post Judge Ulmer Whitewashed My Evidence!  Didn't Care!.   In my post I stated my experience was that Judge Ulmer played politics with an attorney and overlooked and whitewashed my evidence against a defendant in a restraining order hearing.  As a result I endorsed Michael Nava on this blog.

The race is tight and the media hardly covered it, except for a few very appalled members of the legal community including Peter Keane. A San Francisco Chronicle writer Susan Gluss (see Partisan Politics Threatens Judicial Freedom also made mention in her column of the problems arising in the judicial system due to elections.

Here are a few insightful quotes from their articles about the Ulmer vs. Nava tight race:

Peter Keane's comments:
"First, put aside whether you favor incumbent Superior Court Judge Richard Ulmer or challenger Michael Nava. Whoever the voters choose is qualified and will be a fine, capable judge. I voted for Ulmer in the primary. But then I switched to Nava because I became appalled by the borderline ethical (if not downright unethical) campaign tactics by San Francisco judges to elect Ulmer. 
With lockstep unanimity, the judges of the San Francisco Superior Court have savaged the democratic process and cheapened the important principle of protecting the independence of the judiciary. To their personal discredit, they have done this out of a self-serving fear that potential competitors will run against them and that the voters might legitimately and democratically decide that others are better qualified to serve.

One shabby illustration of their disgraceful actions should suffice.

I am a former president of the Bar Association of San Francisco. Last summer, all former bar presidents and I received a cryptic e-mail from Presiding Judge James McBride speaking for the entire court. It urgently summoned us to a meeting in the conference room of a prominent downtown law firm for the evening of July 7. When I responded asking what was up, I was ominously informed with a clear sense of hush-hush secrecy that "independence of the judiciary" was at stake.

At the meeting, McBride and a delegation of other judges, announced that they spoke for all of the judges of the San Francisco Superior Court. They proclaimed that a Nava victory would be the destruction of judicial independence in San Francisco.

They prophesized this Apocalypse with all of the Jeremiah-like intensity of Dick Cheney somberly forecasting weapons of mass destructions and mushroom clouds unless drastic action was taken
But that was not the most distressing part of the meeting. The bar presidents were then given marching orders by the judges to raise $350,000 to defeat Nava.Peter Keane, Former VP of State Bar of California
"The perils of these expensive, politicized judicial contests are underscored by a new report by the Brennan Center for Justice. The report shows the extent that politics and special interests are infecting judicial races - and the resulting threat to judicial independence and impartiality." - Susan Gluss, San Francisco Chronicle

This is flat out evidence from insiders that judges in San Francisco have been corrupted by the election politics of the system!  Let there be no mistake, judges are often highly political in the court room.  Consequently, judicial decisions are not always based on the law, especially when a judge has much discretion.  Politics often involves an attorney a judge prefers that has nothing to do with the plaintiff or defendants.  What this all means is that if you hire an attorney the judge doesn't like having a history with, you will most likely lose your case in San Francisco.



I imagine with such a strong backing of the entire San Francisco judicial community, Judge Ulmer will retain his seat (**update** has retained his seat). Michael Nava would have been the people's judge.  How sad. 

Is California Governor Jerry Brown a Time Traveler?

I don't know about anyone else, but it's freaking me out that Jerry Brown's been elected the California Governor 30 years after he was elected way back in 1975-1983.  I think it's down right spooky if you ask me.  I've got the heebie jeebies and my skin's got goose bumps.  Imagine how it feels for someone who was in high school as a 15 year old, a sophomore when Jerry Brown was elected as Governor.  I was 23 when Brown left office!  Michael Jackson's Thriller had come out the previous year.  Now Brown's back again and it's like deja vu!  What is this guy a time traveler or something? 

Can someone please tell me something?  Why is Jerry Brown back!!?  Most people retire after being in political office. This is unbelievable!  I thought there was a law he was allowed two terms and that was it.  This is scary, but the alternative of Meg Whitman was even scarier to contemplate. 

All I remember from what I retained in my former undeveloped teenage mind from Jerry Brown's former governorship was that he dated Linda Ronstadt and was a fairly good looking man.  Brown was one of the few politicians to hang around with the rock and roll crowd.

I still don't know much about Jerry Brown but I'm glad Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's going to be leaving soon. Governor Schwarzenegger appointed some really screwed up highly political Republican judges.  I'm also glad Pelosi's been dethroned, but am very disappointed marijuana wasn't legalized in California so I could celebrate her departure.  The state could really use the revenue and to lift what amounts to a prohibition against a drug that will never go away.  

The sad thing about this election is that politicians aren't the answer to any of this country's problems. They're all merely puppets for a large monster called the Federal Reserve that's been strangling the country ever since the Federal Reserve Act was passed on Christmas Eve in 1913.  Former President Woodrow Wilson said it was the worst mistake of his life and that he deeply regretted allowing private bankers to take over the U.S. money printing.  The Federal Reserve masks itself in a government associated name and prints out money, but there's a catch.  The Fed gives the money to us as debt we owe it.  We pay towards that debt with Federal taxes. Essentially money = debt.  Surprise! 

When one looks into the details of how the system's been set up since 1913, one can see how America's been doomed to collapse economically.  The bankers are strangling us all and want to usher in a one world banking and governmental system.  No politician can save us, and Obama was merely a pipe dream for many. 

So Jerry Brown the time traveler's back!  He's projected himself 30 years into the future to be Governor of California again.  Speaking of time travelers, what follows is an interesting video about some person, appearing to be a man in drag, in a Charlie Chaplin film with what appears to be a cell phone he's talking into.   Wait, maybe its Jerry Brown!  What has he done?

This film maker explains his shock at discovering a man in drag in a Charlie Chaplin film allegedly talking on a cell phone.  The video's had over 4 million views in the past two months.

All Across the U.S. People Are Blood Boiling Angry at Traitor Politicians

In a recent UPI poll, it was reported a whopping 50% of Americans are angry at politicians. That percentage is really misleading because the details of the poll are far more revealing:
An Angus Reid Public Opinion poll asked 1,011 American adults whether they were personally angry at six different individuals or groups. The poll indicated almost four-in-five respondents report feeling "very angry" or "moderately angry" at the federal government and Congress.

Key findings show 79 percent are angry with the government as a whole while 78 percent of those responding are angry with Congress."

Though I'm not particularly into Christine O'Donnell, whose running for U.S. Senate in Delaware, this music video's really cute. Creatively stitched together from an original speech, O'Donnell's singing about not being a witch.  In a few days this video's had 1.5 million views. 

New York Governor candidate Jimmy McMillan's viral The Rent is Too Damn High video's had 4.5 million views in just two weeks.

All over the U.S. people are really pissed off at politicians who promised change such as Obama who obviously conned the American people to get into office.  People are hopping mad and about to do a little house cleaning today.  I'm particularly fuming at Nancy Pelosi for she and Obama's idiotic health care program.  If everything goes as planned, Pelosi's whorish political career as House Speaker ends tomorrow.



This video depicting the future rule of the Chinese over America was so controversial that it's been discontinued from major networks. It's brought to you by Citizens Against Government Waste at www.CAGW.org

Banks Foreclosure Fraud: "Whoops You Caught Me! Take This Paperwork Instead"

A Wall Street Journal article recently reported how banks are attempting to correct the fraudulent affidavits regarding their foreclosures by replacing them with new ones.  Ohio's attorney general  Richard Cordray released two letters criticizing banks claiming they're trying to practically white out fraud committed in foreclosures as temporary fixes that don't address the real problems.

"It is not acceptable for a party who believes they submitted false court documents to merely replace those documents. Wells Fargo and any other banks are not simply allowed a 'do-over,'" he wrote in the letter to Wells. The other letter was sent to Ohio judges, who were asked to notify Mr. Cordray when banks file substitute affidavits."

The Wall Street Journal reported that "on Oct. 28, Wells Fargo announced it was resubmitting affidavits for 55,000 pending foreclosures, suggesting that some of the paperwork might be flawed. In March, a Wells Fargo employee said in a sworn deposition in a Florida foreclosure case that she signed between 300 and 500 foreclosure documents a day, without reviewing the numbers on the loan files for accuracy." 

General Cordray demanded banks vacate any court order or motion that was based on fraudulent paperwork while recommending banks would be "well-served to work out a settlement with the borrowers to modify the loans and work out payments."

Two weeks ago a 50 state probe of bank fraud regarding foreclosures began in response to reports of widespread errors in foreclosure filings. General Cordray's strategy provides clues as to the goals of such probe which is being led by Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller. 
"The banks are committing fraud on the court, essentially perjury, and then saying 'Whoops! You caught me! Here's some different evidence and use that instead,' " Mr. Cordray said in an interview Friday. "I know a lot of judges are not going to take kindly to that."- Attorney General Cordray, Ohio

Pumpkin Sculpting Treat From Ray Villafane

These photos that follow are some of the best pumpkin carvings I've ever seen in my entire life.  Apparently they've had a lot of recent exposure after having recently being featured on the Food Network in a pumpkin carving contest.  Ray Villafane's a sculptor of enormous talent.  It must be fun for Villafane to work with pumpkin material rather than tough materials although he claims to be allergic to the vegetable.

The carving to the left is of David Letterman because Villafane recently appeared on the show for a pumpkin carving segment.   For those interested in Villafane's other works that include sand, you can visit his site at www.VillfaneStudios.com. A funny video of Letterman's pumpkin sharing the top 10 worst Halloween parties is at the end of this post.

I'd personally like to unleash Villafane on some marzipan, one of my favorite gourmet candies. The candy's usually shaped and spray painted like fruit. Others have gotten more creative with pink pigs and even cigars.
