7 Steps to Revolution
Feb 23rd
Sara Robinson from Campaign for America’s Future has written a very compelling and thoughtful article over at Alternet. In it she presents some well researched and well reasoned logic about why America is on the road to revolution.

Head over and read the entire article: it really is food for thought.

Bank Julius Baer sought an injunction to delete the DNS records at the site’s registrar; California based Dynadot.

Global Economic Crisis Unfolding
Jan 22nd
As I am writing this, there is an economic bloodbath in the Asian stock markets as a result of the plunge yesterday in the US markets. One of the most troubling developments is the impending demise of the two main Bond Insurers, Ambac and MBIA. These two companies underwrite a large number of corporate and municipal bonds in the US market.
Just last Friday, Ambac lost its AAA rating, and it is expected that there will be further downward adjustments. In short, this will mean a loss of about $45 trillion in value in the credit derivative market in the coming days. Read the story here and do what you can to protect yourself from the coming collapse.
