I Was Part of Obama's Welcome Wagon Last Night

It's not every day one has the opportunity to greet from one's own home when a U.S. President comes to town. Last night I had a front row seat to Obama's entourage of an over paid police motorcade in front of my Nob Hill building on California Street San Francisco.  I didn't even know Obama was going to be in my neighborhood until I heard protesters with bull horns a block away at the Masonic Auditorium where he was to arrive for a speech on sex and relationships of all things.

"Barack Obama will be in San Francisco today 4/20/11.  He will be speaking at Nob Hill Masonic Center located at 1111 California Street.  Goapele will also be performing to kick off the event.  You might be asking what does Barack Obama have to do with the topic of Sex and Relationships?  Well, he is married to the beautiful and elegant Michelle Obama, has two kids and still manages to run the United States.  That is multitasking at its finest.  It helps to have a great partner such as Michelle." - The Examiner.com

What spiked koolaide is this Examiner writer drinking to write such a thing?  This guy Obama started a new war without even asking for Congressional approval!  He also lied about most everything to get elected.

Obama heads for the Masonic Auditorium a block from where I live.

Sometimes one just has to let loose and rip.  What did anyone expect me to do with such an opportunity, just look out my window while sipping my Good Earth cinnamon tea as one of the worst Presidents in U.S. history, a traitor, liar, fraud and biggest spender of all time drove on by?  Obama helped heap misery on taxpayers by helping Wall Street bankers dump trillions of debt on the backs of future American tax payers in 2008.  As Trump said recently, Obama's truly a disaster President, even worse then Bush. 

There's a new book coming out about Obama's alleged "true identity" from the guy who was involved in dashing Kerry's presidential dreams with SWIFT Boat accusations years ago.

The street date is a LONG month away, and author Jerome Corsi, the man who torpedoed John Kerry’s presidential dreams with SWIFT BOAT, has gone underground and is holding his new findings this close.

“It’s utterly devastating,” reveals a source close to the publisher. “Obama may learn things he didn’t even know about himself!” - The Drudge Report

What a way to ruin an evening after one of the best days I've had in a long time.  Like I said, I had no idea the President was going to be appearing a block away from where I live.   The guy's no John F. Kennedy, that's for sure.

Why Men Now Fear For Their Lives After Oral Sex With Women

As if there weren't enough things to worry about in the world, guess what?  If you're a white, middle to upper class college educated non-smoking male who orally pleasures women, you're quite vulnerable to contracting oral cancer.  Here's how it could possibly play out.

"Hey dude, do you remember that lady you took out on a date a while back?  The one you uh. . . well since you had no way of knowing if she had any  sexually transmitted HPV virus, your mouth to vagina contact caused you to contract an oral cancerous tumor.  You'll be very lucky if you survive because many find out too late."

The shocking news from the New England Journal of Medicine is that oral cancer's on the rise among men, not for smoking that used to be the leading cause, but for their having oral sex with women.  While the rate of oral cancer has dropped from tobacco use, 65% of male oral cancer tumors were linked to HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) in 2007, the same transmitted virus responsible for the majority of cervical cancers in women.

HPV-16, the strain of the virus that causes cervical cancer in women, has become the leading cause of oral cancer in non-smoking men, Hill said, citing research in the New England Journal of Medicine.

We're looking at non-smokers who are predominantly white, upper middle class, college-educated men," Brian Hill, the executive director of the Oral Cancer Foundation, told AOL News by phone. Oral Sex Puts Men at Risk for Oral Cancer - AOL News

 A pretty lady talks about how HPV killed someone's boyfriend due to their having oral sex.

Men have a greater chance at contracting the HPV virus then women do for the same behavior though researchers aren't exactly sure why.  Oral cancer has a low survival rate because it's generally not discovered until it has spread to other areas, according to the CDC.

500 Dogs Rescued From Slaughterhouse in China

It's widely known dogs don't do well in China sometimes ending up on the dinner table or killed en masse in the streets for fear of the spread of rabies.  That's why when you hear of stories like this one, it's truly heart warming.  Last weekend over 500 dogs were rescued by vigilante citizens and celebrities who have a blog network set-up to summon one another to the scene of dog slaughter transport in China. 

"A man surnamed An saw the truck at the Tongzhou section of the Beijing-Harbin expressway at 11 am Friday. Suspecting the dogs were illegally acquired, he forced the truck to stop and asked others for help via his microblog, according to media reports.

After seeing An's blog, hundreds of animal activists began arriving at the scene with mineral water and food. Some celebrities and foreigners were also rumored to have shown up.  After nearly 15 hours, the incident ended with a pet company and an environmental conservation foundation co-buying the dogs for about 115,000 yuan ($17,606)." - China Dog Saving Stir's Debate - China Global Times

 

Young woman in San Francisco adopts dogs rescued in Taiwan from meat market.

The rescued dogs were transferred to the China Small Animal Protection Association in Beijing, the first and only nationwide humane society in China.  Let's hope these poor neglected dogs find safe homes around the world.  A few weeks ago I happened to ask a young woman about her dogs because they looked like dingos.  She went on to tell me they were rescue dogs from Taiwan and let me snap a photo of she and her new pets.  One of the dogs was shaking a lot she ascribed to it being frightened all of its life.  Needless to say, the poor frightened animal wouldn't let me pet it.

The thing that makes Asian animal rescue so appealing is they cause a lot of pain and suffering to the dogs such as burning them to death to help improve the flavor of the dog meat.  Such a prospect of animals being burned alive doesn't sit well with Americans and other animal activist countries leading to the funding of non-profit organizations and wealthy individuals to acquire the animals for redistribution.

Going Bonkers - Man in Robe and Slippers Irons on Major Freeway

Like a scene out of Steve Martin's 1984 classic The Lonely Guy, some apparent lonely guy decided to do his morning ironing on a major freeway in the U.K.   I don't know if this is some kind of protest over not having a wife to do his ironing, but either way this guy went bonkers.  Think of it, something told this guy to take his ironing board onto a major freeway, right smack in the middle of the road, to iron his clothes!  He must have had one of those portable irons.  See all the problems new technology causes society?

The authorities in the U.K. had to shut down 4 lanes of the freeway to accommodate this lonely guy's need to iron his clothes. 

In analyzing why a guy would do such a crazy thing, one can first denote he clearly wants media attention. Second, he is most likely complaining to the world he has to do his own ironing that women historically have done for their husbands.  Instead of holding a sign in protest "I'm tired of doing my own ironing" perhaps the guy just decided to act out in sarcasm.  After paying a heavy fine, he could possibly obtain interviews on talk shows and become a bit of a celebrity depending on if he has any talent.  

A scene from Steve Martin's Lonely Guy, 1984

Then again, this guy could be so bonkers that he doesn't even know what he's doing.  For someone to pull this stunt they have to see some kind of a reward for it or be completely out of their minds.   There's no doubt the authorities will likely seek a psychological evaluation.

Evidence of HAARP Weather Manipulation in Recent U.S. Deadly Storms

We now have 100% evidence that the recent deadly storms across the United States this weekend were caused by the weather manipulation device HAARP.  For those unaware, HAARP's technology originated with good intentions for humanity from the brilliant inventor Tesla but was later hijacked for evil purposes by the U.S. military complex.  The military has disguised the device being for the purpose of research, but evidence points to its use for weather manipulation, among other things, likely to promote fraud of the effects of global warming.

First, here's a great video if you want the background on HAARP technology prior to the next video that shows the evidence of weather manipulation in the recent storms.

This video explains how Tesla invented a device that could convert gas into cheap electricity to power cities.  The U.S. government took this tremendous invention and is using it for evil purposes to manipulate weather, among other things, to promote its cause for global warming and carbon dioxide taxes propaganda.  Such taxes would speed up the collapse of world economies and usher the ultimate plan for a one world government.

If you want to see the evidence of HAARP in the recent deadly storms, this following video has clear evidence. It's from a YouTuber whose been tracking HAARP activities and weather patterns for several months.  The evidence is impressive that they didn't count on HAARP rings appearing in satellite imagery for the average citizen to observe.  Dutchsinse has been following the patterns of HAARP rings appearing and has accurately predicted subsequent severe storms and/or tornado activity occurring in bulls eye center of the rings.

This is evidence of HAARP activity in weather manipulation over the deadly storms in the United States that took place on April 16, 2011.  The evidence comes from someone whose been following the pattern of HAARP "rings" appearing above the areas prior to the storms materializing. 

A video of yesterday's storm damage.  We the people can now say with 100% certainty, this was weather manipulation deliberately perpetrated by the U.S. military complex using HAARP.

Nob Hill Community Prevents Fairmont Hotel Demolition Condo Conversion

A group called the Historic Nob Hill Historic Steering Committee, myself included as a local business owner, were miraculously able to stop the San Francisco Fairmont Hotel condo conversion project I posted about a while back.  The plan was to demolish an old section of the historical Fairmont Hotel, a 15 story building, to rebuild a new structure where people could purchase condos.  It would have been the largest demolition project ever in the area since the 1906 earthquake.

The mass mailer (above), newspaper ad and article blitz is what the opposition hotel owners put out in a last ditch effort of desperation to trick San Franciscans into thinking they had no choice but to support the project or the hotel would go under. (Note: This is the same type of scare tactic the banks in Wall Street used to steal trillions from tax payers in 2008).  They even opened up a Facebook page called Save Our Hotel.  The San Francisco Chronicle even obliged to help the hotel owners' cause trying to fool its readers as well.

Concerned Nob Hill citizens, including notable architects such as Alice Carey & Co. Historic Preservation and a pro bono attorney, were among many who protested at San Francisco Planning Commission meetings.  The primary issue was that the new owners of the hotel, in a rush to make money off of selling expensive condos, were implementing a structurally flawed plan without proper consideration for the surrounding community.  For instance, they had some crazy plan for a parking structure to support the condo conversion that had little regard for the real issues of traffic congestion in a tourist area.

Here's an earlier email showing what the local community was up against:

"Heretofore the Fairmont project team has virtually ignored us. Our effort caught them off guard and left them flummoxed an kerfuffled. With your help they will soon realize we are powerful force to be reckoned with."  Alice Carey for Historic Nob Hill Steering Committee

San Francisco has an unusual policy of allowing the public full input it strongly considers prior to its Planning Commission approving new building structure plans.  Other cities could care less and just press forward so it was refreshing to be involved in something of this nature.

"Today the Fairmont signed an agreement with Local 2 (hotel workers) not to pursue the Fairmont condo conversion project. They will withdraw all applications to the Planning Commission, Historic Preservation Commission and the Board of Supervisors.  As many of you may have read Lew Wolff, whose organization owns 50% of the Fairmont, stated his intention to sell.

Thank you all for your letters, public testimony, and support. Alice Carey for Historic Nob Hill

When the people win over greedy developers, it's so refreshing in this day and age.  Clearly, the Fairmont Hotel will survive not having a portion of its rooms converted into condos. Thanks to all those who attended meetings and wrote letters to help the steering committee's efforts!

Physicist Michio Kaku Says Fukushima's A Ticking Time Bomb

This is the kind of article I never wanted to write but unfortunately have to. Even as the Japanese government raised the severity rating of the nuclear crisis to the highest possible level, it's still trying to calm fears about radiation levels and food safety.

"Radiation is continuing to leak out of the reactors, the situation is not stable at all," claims physicist and author Michio Kaku in an interview on Democracy Now! on April 13, 2011. 

"The slightest disturbance could set off a full scale melt down at three nuclear power stations—far beyond what we saw at Chernobyl." - Michio Kaku, Physicist and Author- Interview on Democracy Now.

"Dangling from a cliff, hanging by your fingernails, with each fingernail about to crack, that's the situation it is now" - Physicist Michio Kaku

To make matters worse, yesterday there was a huge volcanic explosion from the Sakurajima Volcano.  

As if Japan didn't have enough to worry about, its volcano's exploding!

Here's the latest radiation fallout helpful information from YouTuber Dutchsinse:

A little boring but informative.

Many people want to remain in denial something very serious and threatening to our planet is happening that's far graver than alleged global warming.   I for one want to know the truth so at least I can mitigate the damaging effects of exposure to radiation.  For instance, I won't be buying milk for a long time and most likely will resort to milk powder products in bulk that have already been on the shelves prior to the radiation.  I will also avoid cheese products and ice cream.   I will definitely avoid being outside when it rains if at all possible due to the radiation particulates carried in the clouds through the jet stream to the west coast.  


There's really only so much one can do under these dire circumstances.  I'm sure many will elect to simply pretend it didn't happen and go on living their lives as always.

Ann Coulter's Worldwide Radiated Food Tour Takes Off

After Japanese officials finally admitted they have a Level 7 radiation threat from Fukushima I thought it might be a good idea to purchase Geiger counter to use on fresh produce prior to purchase.  Yesterday Natural News reported that the French research authority on radioactivity CRIRAD has finally admitted the danger posed by radiated food:

"It is now warning expectant mothers and young children to avoid drinking milk or rainwater. They should also avoid certain types of vegetables and cheese due to the dangerously high levels of radiation they may contain thanks to the radioactive fallout spreading across the globe ."  Link

This information must be very hard to swallow for the French who are widely known to have a love affair with their food.  According to author Ann Coulter though, the French should be happy their food's been radiated because "radiation's good for you".  I won't bother to post the video, since everyone's seen it by now of Ann whoring herself for publicity for a buck.  You can instantly know anything that comes out of Ann Coulter's mouth is a fraud since she's clearly a political satire actress along the lines of the Colbert (Coulter) Report program.  Few have caught on that Ann Coulter's making millions of dollars simply because she makes deliberate insane statements to provoke wild controversy.  Ann deliberately provokes disgust and hatred as a self-sacrifice for millions of people's inability to see through her satire act. Ann's so phony, "she" is really a former "he".  Just check out her enormous Adam's apple that's considered by many to be a male's anatomy.

Ann should tell radiation is good for you to this guy, a Frenchman living in Japan.

Speed up to 7:40 and start listening, prior to this point it's tediously slow unfolding because of his heavy accent.  Didn't this guy hear the news radiation's good for him? What's he worried about because, according to Ann Coulter, he should throw a radiation party and be happy.  For anyone who takes Ann Coulter seriously at all, I think it's a sign of something and I won't say what.

Now back to reality.  It's shocking to observe the level of denial the U.S. government and media are in about the seriousness of this Fukushima disaster.  The media probably doesn't want people to know how serious the situation is for fear panic will cause food hoarding.  People like myself have been preparing years in advance for this kind of serious disaster but the majority of Americans don't have any adequate emergency stored long term food back-up supplies.

If you want to ensure your food is radiation free you can also grow your own vegetables indoors using the Aerogrow planters and purchase the EcoloBlue water generator (although who knows if the humidity it uses to generate water will be safe from radiation?).

"Only those who grow food in greenhouses will be largely protected from the fallout. Maybe it's a good time to buy some sprouting seeds, too, because you can sprout seeds in your own kitchen and grow them free of radiation. In just 3 days, you can turn a pile of seeds into a nutritious sprout salad. Add some avocado and balsamic vinegar and you have a delicious lunch!" Europeans Warned to Avoid Drinking Milk, Eating Vegetables. . ..  - Natural News.com

The one thing I haven't gotten yet is a Geiger counter. Whenever radiation's detected, the counter should read "Ann Coulter Approved" to forewarn levels are high.

$5.00 Gas Just Another Reason to Leave California

We're starting to see record highs of $5.00 per gallon gas in California!  CNBC posted a video of a gas station in Burbank being the alleged highest in the state.  The average price for regular unleaded in the state is $4.10.  This is really scary news because, as most everyone knows, high gas prices drives up costs on everything.

California's really losing any appeal it once had as I uncover all these issues I've been posting about lately.  Within just a relatively short period of time things have shifted for the worst.  For instance, the golden state's property values are plummeting, its court system is overly politicized and largely corrupt, its taxes are too high, its public schools rate the worst in the nation, its prison system is too large, expensive and burdensome on tax payers, there are too many bad lawyers and regulations, its politicians are spend happy, illegal immigration is out of control and now this. Record high gasoline in the nation?

Story on new record of $5.00 gas in Burbank, California

Gas and me go way back.  I remember the late 1970's and early 80's era of long gas lines and people sleeping in their cars to get in front of the gas line the next day.  I later vowed never to allow myself in a precarious position regarding gasoline since way back in 1984 when I was a broke student I stole a few tanks of gas.  One could easily say I wasn't a very bright 24 year old.  Back then they didn't have ATM cards so you could filler up and drive off. I got away with it a few times with probably around $50 of free gas until they finally got my license plate number. 

Since 1986 I haven't owned a car having used motor scooters with high mileage per gallon ratios.  It wasn't self-inflicted punishment at all for me to ride scooters since it was a lot of fun.  I also saved tons of money not owning a car.  I was living in the beach areas of Southern California and the scooters had become more high powered and sophisticated so it was no problem at all.  I felt very fortunate with the 100,000 miles I eventually put on motor scooters from 1990-2003 never to have been in any accident or mishap though I had a few close calls like the time I put a karaoke machine on the back end and sang along to people on the road.  Like I said, I wasn't too bright back then.

Last year after doing the walking thing a while, I took the next step and completely got off the gas dependency with the purchase of an eBike.  An eBike is totally doable in San Francisco and more people with applicable biking communities should consider purchasing one.  You can now get a 10% Federal tax break of the total cost of a two or three wheeled plug-in electric vehicle unless you wrote off the purchase as an expense for business.

Zip Cars also make it easy to get your hands on a nice car within 1/2 hour of needing one.  Zip provides a slide card so you don't have to go through the red tape of renting a car. You don't pay for gas or insurance, only a small $50 fee per year and that's it. If you want insurance from potential liability it's up to you but you don't have to purchase it.  Zip Cars are available only in certain chosen cities however.  The costs last year were as low as $7.00/hr for a Toyota Prius but those vehicles were since removed from the Zip Car line due to the recall.  Cars now start at $10.75 per hour, a fairly large jump.  I anticipate more hikes as gas increases.

From my observation, it seems too many people are on the road doing a lot of unnecessary driving.   I anticipate seeing less vehicles on the road if the gas price hike trend continues which it's predicted to do thanks to Middle East unrest.  As I have, people with moderate incomes will be forced to change their lifestyles to accommodate these gas prices.

Why Safe Deposit Boxes Aren't Safe In These Times

Have you ever wondered why the IRS allows a tax deduction for using a bank's safe deposit box? In these hard economic times, there are multiple valid reasons not to trust your bank to keep your valuables in its safe deposit vault.  History tells the story time and time again of the state seizing safe deposit boxes without due process of law especially during hard economic times.

In 2008, 50 U.S. States were holding $32 billion worth of unclaimed property that was used to balance their budgets.  In some cases, "unclaimed" meant the owner simply hadn't contacted the bank in some time over the contents of their safe deposit box.

"As reported by ABC News in 2008, what started out as a program to hold unclaimed property, such as the contents of safety deposit boxes owned by people who have moved away without a forwarding address, has gone wildly out of control. The program is using the flimsiest of excuses to drill safe deposit boxes and sell the contents. 

In a case reminiscent of the Monty Python organ donor skit (or perhaps the movie Repo Men), a San Francisco woman’s jewelry appraised at over $80,000 was sold even though she lived a few blocks from her bank, had not moved, and was current on all of her box rental feeds. In another case, a man’s retirement savings consisting of $4 million of stock certificates were sold; and “A Sacramento family lost out on railroad land rights their ancestors had owned for generations”. Ludwig von Mises Institute - Mises Economics Blog 

All this was happening around the economic upheaval in 2008.  According to the blog article, looting safe deposit boxes required less due process than asset forfeiture.  Attorney Bill Palmer, who represented countless citizens in a class action lawsuit against the state of California, explained:

 "They figured the safe deposit box was safer than keeping it under the mattress," Palmer said. "In the case of a lot of citizens, they were wrong, weren't they?" 

California law used to say property was unclaimed if the rightful owner had no contact with the business for 15 years. But during various state budget crises, the waiting period was reduced to seven years, and then five, and then three. Legislators even tried for one year. Why? Because the state wanted to use that free money. (Blogger note:  You mean wanted to steal their money!)

"That's absolutely correct," said California State Controller John Chiang, who inherited the situation when he came into office. "What we've done here over the last two decades has been dead wrong. We've kept the property and not provided owners with the opportunities -- the best opportunities -- to get their property back." - Not-So-Safe-Deposit Boxes: States Seize Citizen's Property to Balance their Budgets - ABCNews.com - 2008

In other words, Mr. Chiang admitted the State of California had been stealing money from its citizens. How can you trust the government after this kind of unjustified action?  How can you trust its courts?  I for one certainly can't trust the government any longer, clearly a criminal syndicate that thinks nothing of manipulating the law to steal from its citizens. 

San Francisco resident Carla Ruff's safe-deposit box was drilled, seized, and turned over to the state of California, marked "owner unknown."  The lady previously described as having her safe deposit contents stolen in San Francisco explained:

"I was appalled," Ruff said. "I felt violated."

Unknown? Carla's name was right on documents in the box at the Noe Valley Bank of America location. So was her address -- a house about six blocks from the bank. Carla had a checking account at the bank, too -- still does -- and receives regular statements. Plus, she has receipts showing she's the kind of person who paid her box rental fee. And yet, she says nobody ever notified her.

"They are zealously uncovering accounts that are not unclaimed," Ruff said.- Not-So-Safe-Deposit Boxes: States Seize Citizen's Property to Balance their Budgets - ABCNews.com - 2008

So if you think your valuables are safe in a deposit box, think again.  If you always worried about how safe your valuables were, you weren't being paranoid.  California had already spent $5.1 billion dollars of people's safe deposit boxes prior to the 2008 lawsuit and spent all the money like a crack whore.  Back during the Great Depression, Franklin D. Roosevelt stole gold out of people's safe deposit boxes, NAZI's seized money and gold from Jew's banks, etc.  If there's some national emergency imagine the state and banks would be drooling over keeping your items and locking you out of their bank should it become insolvent.

After the class action, California law has since changed but when times get tougher one may want to consider how despicable banks and the government can be.  Imagine the audacity a state government would have to have to steal money from safe deposit boxes?  Do they really think people would simply abandon their valuables?  They knew what they were doing!  The California state legislature had changed the laws to trick people into thinking they didn't have to contact their banks for years over their property since the old standard was 15 years to claim unclaimed property.  This was absolute criminal among these politician law makers! Did they get put in jail for it?  No, of course not.

Here's some tips on how to avoid the fiasco if at all possible:

• Make contact with your bank, your brokerage firm, etc. at least once a year, in a way that creates a paper trail. Make sure they have your current address.
  
• If you own stock, occasionally vote your proxies or take other steps to keep your stock ownership active. Stay in touch with your broker.
  
• Write a list of all your accounts and keep it with your will, so your heirs will know where to look.
  
• Consider insuring valuables even if you keep them in your safe-deposit box. That way, you're covered financially if the bank or state makes a mistake and empties your box. Plus, safe-deposit contents have been known to be destroyed by fire or flooding.
  
• If you want to search for unclaimed property in your name, you do not need to pay other people to do it for you. Check out the following links for more information:
