Mysterious Lights Spotted Over California: “Airspace Over The Pacific Is Closed To Incoming Flights”

by Mac Slavo, SHTFPlan:

Social media pages across California exploded early Saturday evening after hundreds of witnesses reported seeing mysterious objects over the California sky. The lights, somewhat resembling a meteor in the images that have been made available on social media, appeared simultaneously, yet over 500 miles apart in both Southern and Northern California.
It is not clear whether the lights were the same object or two separate incidents.

Crime in the Jobs Report

from GoldSeek:

“When more and more people are thrown out of work, unemployment results.”
– Calvin Coolidge, US president, 1923-29, in his role as Mr. Obvious
“Unemployment is of vital importance, particularly to the unemployed.”
– Edward Heath, UK prime minister, 1970-74
Every now and then you get some good news. Economists had projected a good solid 185,000 new jobs, with the range of expectations running from a low of 150,000 to a high of 240,000. What we got was a boffo 271,000 jobs. Plus some green shoots of potential actual wage-push inflation, the kind of inflation pressure that most workers like, which means that, for a change, wages might start going up faster than inflation.
The unemployment rate dropped a whopping 0.01%, but that was enough to push the rounded number down to a headline 5% unemployment (actual was 5.04%).

From Protesting Vietnam to Demanding "Safe Spaces" – What Happened To America's College Kids?

In almost all cases where coddled, thin-skinned students claim their feelings are hurt, school administrators bend over backwards to appease them, legality notwithstanding. In fact, if anyone is being discriminated against, it’s those rare and courageous professors who publicly stand up to this unconstitutional nonsense. Which brings us to today’s post about an ongoing incident at Yale. With students being coddled in a fantasy world of “safe spaces” and fear of “micro-aggressions,” can we really expect them to grow up to be adults capable of confronting real issues of money, power and imperial aggression?

Are Guns Safer Than Prescription Drugs?

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/08/2015 - 17:20 According to the latest data from the DEA, death from prescription drugs (7.2 per 100,000) is twice as common as gun homicides. So, for all those concerned parents who think little Johnny is likely to get gunned down on the street would be better advised to keep tabs on their prescription painkillers, as Johnny is far more likely to die from popping those than from any gun in your house or in the hands of a school mate.

The War On Cash Is Advancing On All Fronts: "First They Came For The Pennies..."

But who is the governments' strongest ally in their 'war on cash'?

CEO Of World's Largest Shipping Company: "Global Growth Is Worse Than Official Reports"

According to the CEO of Maersk, the world's biggest container shipping company, "the world’s economy is growing at a slower pace than the International Monetary Fund and other large forecasters are predicting." Andersen adds that "we believe that global growth is slowing down. Trade is currently significantly weaker than it normally would be under the growth forecasts we see....we’re a little bit more pessimistic than most forecasters."

Greece May Open Border Fence With Turkey, Accept Refugees In Exchange For Release Of Bailout Cash

Perhaps realizing that another wave of social unrest and failure to obtain creditor cash may well lead to a violent social upheaval, Tsipras seems to be contemplating a Plan B, one which would see Greece accept thousands of refugees destined for Europe in exchange for getting the earmarked cash without any reform.

What Can Yellen Really Do?

With crude stocks moving up solidly despite inventories being still almost one-third above the “cycle” trend from 2009 through 2014, the economics of that behavior suggest the opposite of what the FOMC would like to project. And that would seem to bridge the eurodollar curve’s front and back ends, aligning it with commodities more generally. In that view, eurodollar futures are suggesting exactly what they have been for almost a year and a half – that the Fed might or might not act, but if they do it won’t alter the economic course but only wield the potential to make a bad (and growing more so) physical and general economy situation that much worse.

Why Tony Robbins Is Still Asking The Wrong Questions

The most important question (which no one’s asking) that needs to be asked and addressed today is: With the Fed. all but signalling come heck or high-water – they’re raising in December. Do the global markets once again stand at the same ledge they did in early August? And if that is indeed so, the question that is self-evident is this: Are you now better equipped both psychologically, as well as strategically and tactically adroit to handle such gyrations? Or, have you focused on “fees” and “diversification” as expounded via today’s financial books with a tendency to just BTFD because it’s worked so well in the past regardless of forethought or angst?

"A Thin-Skinned Minority Is Ruining This Nation": Professor Crushes "Political Correctness" Wave Sweeping America

"I am talking about the growing minority of students who believe they have a right to be free from being offended.. if this doesn't work for you, I would simply ask you to get the hell out of the country. The ever-growing thinned-skinned minority you have joined is simply ruining life in this once-great nation. Please move to some place like Cuba where you can enjoy the company of communists and get excellent health care. Just hop on a leaky boat and start paddling your way towards utopia. You will not be missed."

Save the Hostage and the Ransom

by Terry Coxon, International Man:

There are simple arrangements you can make internationally that will gain you a worthwhile measure of protection.

• Having money in a foreign bank account ensures that no purely bureaucratic action in the US could suddenly leave you desperate for cash.

• Buying an annuity from a non-US insurance company could gain you currency diversification and perhaps make things a little more difficult for any future creditors.

Gandhi still right after 90 years: Vaccines are toxic, unhealthy and ineffective

by L.J. Devon, Natural News:

Train the body to depend on a vaccine and it will do just that. Train the body to face disease, build immunity through clean air, water and food, and you will build incredible strength, cognition and natural immunity. These are my observations over the past five years, ditching pharmaceuticals, while facing sickness and strengthening natural immunity. You are more powerful than led to believe.
Solely focusing on specific pathogens with unclean vaccines will make the body more susceptible to other diseases in the long run. Advancing human immunity should not be about the focus of individual diseases and the fear of death. Progressing human immunity should dive into the science of the human microbiome, the power of plant medicine and adaptogens. The commensal bacteria system of the human body is a community of living bacteria species which carry out important functions within the body. Healing comes from within. It does not come from external pharmaceuticals that inject animal parts, metal adjuvants, sterilization chemicals and viral fragments. This is a dirty practice of witchcraft medicine that is an illusion of health.

BRICs Finally Broke: Goldman Pulls The Plug On "Revolutionary" Acronym Fund After 88% Loss

Back in February 2013, the creater of the BRIC acronym, Goldman's Jim O'Neill retired, but not before some very (traditionally) optimistic words of parting, namely that there is "clear evidence things are doing better economically." Nearly three years later, things are not only not doing better economically, with the entire world now engaged in outright, or quasi QE (with helicopter money to follow as Adair Turner infamous warned) just to support global asset prices, but the very emerging markets that made up the BRICs, have devolved to a state of economic freefall. And nowhere is this more obvious than in Goldman's decision to pull the plug on the infamous fund that bears the name of Goldman's most bullish acronym in history.

“The renminbi is today the second most utilized currency for commercial financing, and the fourth most demanded for cross-border payments, according to data from the Society of World Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT),” Mexican economist Ariel Noyola Rodriguez elaborated in his article for RT.

The Long, Slow, Well-Deserved Death of Comcast

from Outsider Club:

By wide measure, Comcast is the most-hated company in America.
And for good reason.
Comcast treats its customers with so little respect it verges on spite.
Anecdotes of the company’s abhorrent behavior have become the stuff of legend.
In one case, a customer named Ricardo Brown received a bill with his name changed to “Asshole Brown.”
It wasn’t a one-off incident, either. Three more Comcast customers said their names had been changed, with bills that read “whore,” “dummy,” and “super bitch.”

Cops Now Stealing Your Stuff To ‘Protect You’ From People Who Might Steal Your Stuff

from The Sleuth Journal:

In a ridiculous move, ostensibly designed to protect citizens from theft, the New Haven police department has begun stealing things from innocent individuals.
Yes, you read that correctly.
The New Haven police department announced its plans this week to start stealing things from unsuspecting residents who leave their doors unlocked. If you are missing your valuables, it may not have been taken by a private thief, it could have been stolen by a publicthief.
According to Lt. Herbert Sharp of the NHPD, police are now taking private property from unlocked cars and bringing it to the station. This, of course, is done so to “deter theft.”
