I saw the same Infowars article and had a couple questions.
1) Who was the source of the audio enhancement? Can we get a chain of custody on the audio track to prevent the issue of someone simply altering the commercial to create the story?
2) There's a lot of dead air in that PSA. You don't hear music, or even a voiceover for what is being sold or what is it you are being educated about. Seems a tad convenient that in all this 'silence' in the PSA you have room to insert the message does it not?
3)Is there some organization out there that actually listens to the background noise of every commercial trying to find this stuff? If not, since you can't actually hear the message in the regular volume version of the PSA, how was it discovered?

As is pointed out in the article, the PSA seems to be a stunningly unlikely place for such a 'plant', and that someone actually had to produce the sound bite in question, since there is no historical tape of a news broadcast in the USA where martial law is being declared due to a disease outbreak. There could be some movies where that dialogue exists, but now you have to pay for its use or risk a lawsuit.

So I have more questions than answers for Alex Jones and the gang, which frankly tends to be the case with a lot of his 'stories'.

Well call me cynical, but the pastor who did the eulogy sent the crowd out the door of his church with "No Justice! No Peace!" ringing in their ears.

Cellphone video of the church service was posted online showing him exhorting "No Justice! No Justice!" and the crowd answering back "No Peace!"

He then says "No Justice! No Peace!" and he's then seen a couple hours later on CNN saying he is so surprised and saddened by the rioting.

Um really Boo Boo? Seems you me you may have jinned up the crowd a bit on the way out the door. I'm not hearing his final thought for the crowd as being one of love, peace, and acceptance.

Makes you wanna say 'hmmmmmm'.

Part of the problem in many urban governments is the institutional resistance to overhauling the police department. As a labour group the police and fire departments by virtue of their sheer size control a substantial voting block which politicians pander to. When citizens come to city council meetings or police committee hearings and complain of profiling and heavy handed treatment, the complaints are paid lip service to, and the mayor calls the police chief to ask him to talk to the troops.

An e-mail gets sent to the rank and file, 'be nice to the locals' and they laugh it off because in the world of dealers, gang bangers, pimps, and wannabes there are no nice ones. The punks friends and family live their lives through the criminality of others and won't or don't turn them in.

For those who are honest, and who live in these neighbourhoods and are subjected to DWB (driving while black) traffic stops, or harassed and stopped and frisked and maybe slapped around a little enough finally became enough. What was a small problem finally blows up into people who normally wouldn't loot the CVS running out the door with a shopping cart full of stuff figuring the system owes him, so why not get some payback?

Other people see it as a route to federal urban renewal monies. Burn down some buildings, shoot at some cops, and have a city sized temper tantrum. What happens? The feds pump in money for job programs, recreation centers, cultural programs, and rebuilding of streets and parks. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton pay you a visit, and maybe Obama himself will show up to cut the ribbon.

Some U.S. university recently studied this and they suggested the American northwest based on sparse population and altitude. The thought was that lower population densities make it tougher for any 'infection' to continue due to fewer available victims. The higher up you are, the less likely zombies are to hike up a hill and engage better defended position.

Personally, I always liked the small desert town option. Hundreds of miles from big cities, and less likely to see zombie populations trek the open desert to get there.

As long as you have gas and a working vehicle, you can go somewhere else to gather canned food,and water and then you can try and use local spaces for indoor agriculture.

Lots of ammo of course, and heavy calibre rifles (.338 and .50) to put some distance between the undead and yourself.

If I was getting 100 messages a day from women wanting to meet me, I'd likely be off the site and dating someone before the end of the day! I think THAT volume of messaging is a little unrealistic though.

Since so many people claim to use the site as their soulmate gold mine, I would say that yes, you would need to answer those 100 people if for no other reason than to acknowledge if they are in the running or not.

Why let 'Skippy' pine out there for you, thinking that he has a shot, simply because you cannot find 20 seconds in your day to send him a polite 'Sorry, but no thank you.'message.

Sorry, maybe it's how I was raised, but the expectation of using text, or flirting, or making someone a friend or a favourite, is that a communication should be acknowledged if for no other reason than to confirm it was seen, and understood. You won't always get the positive response you might be hoping for, and that's fine.

I just think you should take the time to answer people who thought enough of you to make the effort.

I'll get off my soapbox now. (lol)

A polite " I've read your profile and don't think we would 'click'" usually works for me.

I will however point out that I am one of those people who thinks that NOT answering messages is incredibly rude and disrespectful.

I equate messages on Mingle to leaving someone a voicemail message. If I called you and said "Hi it's Mike and I'd like to meet you for coffee, interested?" I would think the vast majority of you would feel compelled to call back and provide a yes or no answer.

Some could easily call up and say "Sorry, not into it, have a nice life." and would be done. Others would be very hesitant to reject someone knowing they have to talk to them, and they fear some big conflict will be generated. I get you don't like personally rejecting someone. It's not something we enjoy usually.

Here however, it's simply text. If the other party can't accept your decision like an adult, then you have the block option, and I suggest you use it if they exhibit stalker or anger issue tendencies.

Common courtesy for me however is if I ask a question, I think it's simply the polite thing to answer.

Am I too old-fashioned?

'Hitlery' is evil incarnate.

The problem is no mud ever sticks to her because the mainstream media loves her and reports as little as possible about her foibles.

Her and Slick Willy walk time after time because no one ever talks and there's never a direct piece of evidence. She deleted the emails on her server and likely asked anyone with compromising emails to do the same. The issue is if the Russians, (or anyone else) kept e-mails or recorded phone calls to use when the time was right?

She was supposed to follow rules she had agreed to with Obama on the Clintons taking donations, and Bill making speeches. Hillary promptly ignored the rules before the ink was dry.

The woman will use the Constitution as toilet paper if she gets elected.

*cough* (clears throat)

Sorry for having standards and thinking others should have some as well.

I'm not mean to people, I don't berate or belittle them, and I try very hard not to be condescending or insulting.

What I DO unfortunately is call people out on their bulls*it.

---I don't think it's cool when you post pics on your profile a decade old, and try to pass them off as current.(Hint: Check for date stamps on your pics!)
--- Say you have no kids and don't want any, but your profile starts "If forced to, my two sons would say I was a good mom." Huh?
--- Choose no body type, yet have full length pics in your profile?
--- All pics are the same arms length face selfie, taken 8 times by moving your arm an inch to the right.
--- Say you want a relationship but in reality only want to serial date.(Update the profile to just dating, that's cool. Also more honest.)
--- Profile says you don't smoke, but all your pics show you with a butt in your hand.
--- 'Social' drinker but all your pics feature tables of empty bottles, feature you in a bar, or making your 1:30 drunken duck face.

Always amazed at how many profiles say you want to avoid scammers and players. Ok, I respect that and appreciate the sentiment. Just be truthful in your own profile info and the image of yourself that you are portraying.

*drops mic*

This happens to guys as well. I've had a couple African women send messages. When you reply, the conversation takes about 5 minutes to get to the point where she wants to come and visit so she can move in with you and be the girlfriend.

Yeah, that won't be happening. Kind of a long commute from Canada for dinner and a movie.

I look at this issue in a very pragmatic fashion. These are skills and services being sold for a fee. We all work, and we all get paid.

I worked for a time as a bouncer in a large Canadian city and came into contact with 'working girls' on a regular basis. I came to know their stories, and how they got into the 'business'.

For SOME women, the issue is power over men. Like some exotic dancers, they control their sexuality on a very overt level. They want men to beg for their companionship. Usually as a result of bad romantic relationships, these women wanted some payback and found that making men pay for them raised their self esteem.

For SOME women, the adult service industry is a means to an end. I know one woman who worked as a dancer for 10 years. She owns two homes free and clear and bought a bankrupt company for pennies on the dollar that grosses over $1 mil a year. She had a plan, banked her money, and executed her plan. Higher end 'escorts' usually map out a plan, a timeline, and have goals.

For SOME women addiction to drugs and alcohol drove them to sex work as they couldn't hold a normal job. Some have psych issues with molestation and sexual abuse. The sex trade is all they know. Usually the street level sex trade worker has fallen into this situation.

Finally you have human trafficking. Women for whom the sex trade is not a voluntary choice. They have been sold into it and work as indentured servants. Usually the Asian or Eastern European 'happy ending' girl at body rubs.

I've seen both ends of the spectrum. High end prostitutes who have happy lives, have 'nice guys' for dates, make a lot of cash, and eventually retire to the suburbs. I've also seen drug addled, well past their prime women who have been chewed up by the street and the lifestyle. Hustling for $10 and $20 services from guys who are just too horny to say no. It's heartbreaking to see someone so damaged and so broken that an overdose seems like a blessing in disguise for them.

There will always be people in need of companionship, and there will always be those willing to provide it for a price. The difference in how it all plays out for people is how we treat each other in the process. You can either respect them for the choices they make and the skills they provide, or you can look down your nose at them and treat them with disdain. Your call...

Well some interesting info on 'Hitlery'.
1) For those of us old enough to recall, she served as an assistant to to the Watergate special prosecutor. It is alleged she removed original historical documents from a national reference library. These documents were the only known to exist that specifically define how a sitting president (Nixon) who is to be impeached is entitled to legal representation. She supposedly had formulated a theory that without the documents Nixon would have to defend himself if impeached. When Nixon resigns Hilary's boss DECLINES to write her a reference letter noting that she acted unethically during her time on the team. So, how BAD do you have to be for another lawyer to consider you unethical?
2) When White House counsel Vince Foster commits suicide Hilary walks into his office, threatens the two cops in the room with their jobs if they don't sit down and shut up, and then proceeds to empty his filing cabinets. Three weeks later the cops are called back as Hilary's staff claims to have found a suicide note. The note, torn into about two dozen pieces is found in a briefcase the cops had searched previously and noted as empty. The note? Yeah, 22 pieces of it and not ONE fingerprint on any of them. Hmmmmm.
3) The Benghazi affair. People died, everybody lied, and she asks "Senator, what does it matter now?
4) The e-mail scandal, Clinton Foundation nonsense, etc etc etc.
The woman is evil. Make her President and she will wipe her butt with the Constitution.

I have recent emails (as recent as today) that do not show up in my email list. Either ones that I sent, or were sent to me in the last 2-3 days don't show up.

I have not deleted them and as far as I know the other party did not delete them either.

Any ideas folks?

Mike
