Do you think NDC or NPP care about Ghanaians look at their record? NDC ruled Ghana for 8 years and NPP has also ruled for 8 years. Did any of them help to make Ghana a developed country? Did any of them solve the unemployment problem in Ghana? How about education and health? Look at the roads in Ghana. Do we deserve that? Any person who has been to Europe, Asia or America can say for sure that both major parties have not done much for Ghanaians.

Look at the state of Ghana’s manufacturing sector. What do we produce? Virtually nothing. What do we do with the cocoa that we produce? We only export the raw beans for peanuts. How about the gold and the diamond and the many minerals we mine? They are exported to Switzerland and Dubai before Ghanaians go there to buy the wedding rings and bracelets to sell to Ghanaians. Computers, cars, mobile phones, fridges are made in Europe, Japan and the US and it is affordable but Ghanaians cannot buy common chocolate even though the vital raw material which is cocoa is made here. And the same is true about gold and diamond. We cannot buy them even though they are mined right here.

Look at the state of the agricultural sector. How many of our farmers have their own tractors and farming equipments to produce beyond the level of subsistence? Virtually none. Virtually all the important equipments needed to make the agric sector viable and productive have to be imported and how many of our farmers have their own resources to buy even the basic machinery to expand their farms? Although we are in the 21st Century yet our farming practices indicate that we have still not moved beyond the 19th century. This is the more reason why we continue to hunger even though rich soils abound in Ghana. We under utilise our land for lack of political commitment.

Look at the policies of the two major parties and see if they can even put Ghana on the level of Korea, Taiwan or Hong Kong in the next 20 years. Ghanaian business men are frequenting Dubai and China importing every good you can think of. Investigate to find out how the Chinese and co did it and whether any of the parties can help Ghana do the same.

Look at the state of infrastructure in Ghana: roads, harbours, telecommunication, health, education, market and airport. We have neglected the few that Nkrumah built yet we have forgotten that no nation no matter the size of the natural resources that she has can develop without investing in infrastructure. That is why Democratic Republic of Congo has every mineral you can think of yet they are one of the poorest in the world. That is why Malaysia, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong have developed and that is why President Elect Obama  is talking about building US infrastructures because they are the engines that run the economy. You cannot export if you do not have harbours and airports to support it. You cannot attract tourists if you do not have airport, hotels and other infrastructure that support it.

You cannot move goods from centres of production to centres of consumption if you do not have roads, rail lines and inland water infrastructure to deliver it. You cannot supply the industries with doctors, architects, bankers, lawyers, planners, engineers, teachers, nurses if you do not have the educational infrastructure to deliver it. And you cannot run an efficient and vibrant economy if you do not have the energy and telecommunication infrastructures in place. Ghana has been experiencing serious disruptions in the energy sector for years and no political party has seen any wisdom to solve. As a result factories are folding up and are laying off workers and we are waiting for nature to help fill Akosombo Dam before we rectify the problem. Can these do nothing approaches to problem solving help our nation? What are we doing with the abundance of sunshine in the country? We have not taken advantage of it, have we? We have sunshine 365 days and we have not tap into solar energy which is cheap and more reliable than hydro. It is another indication of the useless institutions that we have and lip service paid by the various political parties and their leaders to development. Look around yourselves and see if any of the goods you see are made in Ghana I mean the mobile phones, computers, televisions, cars and all the flashy things that Ghanaians are crazing for. It is sad to note that almost all the raw materials needed to build these phones, cars etc are obtained from Ghana and other African countries.

How about the state of the housing infrastructure? A visit to any village or town gives the same picture of poor housing and poor quality of public service. People are living in mud/thatched houses with bamboo leaf as roofing sheet with no electricity, potable water and clinics. They live in a subsistence environment without social security, health insurance and are condemned to poverty, desperation and hopelessness. Those living in urban areas are without jobs, without mortgage, and face high utility bills with poor service. They face constant barrage of water and energy disruptions everyday. In every region the situation is not different. On the other hand our MPs, ministers, vice president, the president, their cronies and families live in total luxury with mansions, SUVs, bodyguards, fat salaries, fat bonuses, house servants and they have all the resources of the state at their disposal. Yet they claim to be serving the people. How can it be?

And how about our education sector upon which the development of the nation rest? It is nothing to write home about. Isn’t it? Look at the world ranking of Universities and see where the first university falls. Can we afford to develop the nation with low quality graduates not to mention the millions of illiterates and semi-literates that roam around the country? Of the about 9,760 Accredited universities in the World, Ghana’s prominent universities including University of Ghana and Kwame Nkrumah University of ‘Science and Technology’ only managed to place 5,702 and 6,703 positions respectively in the World University Ranking. Even in Africa, our own backyard they only managed to secure 43rd and 63rd positions respectively.(Source: topuniversities.com) It is abundantly clear that our education system is not producing the architects, engineers, planners, bankers, lawyers, doctors, teachers, social workers, nurses and the scientists that we need in the 21st Century. That is why every major architectural and engineering activity in Ghana is undertaken by foreigners and foreign companies especially from USA, Japan, China, India and Europe. And any nation that depends on foreign expertise for her survival is doom to fail in the long run. The Universities lack well trained lecturers. They lack modern facilities such as state of the art libraries, laboratory simulation facilities, studios, computers, and books. They lack them because we cannot build them; we cannot build them because the curricula have not prepared our students to build them. As a result we have to import the equipments and books from countries that have done their home work well and have invested heavily in education notably in science and technology.

In many of our universities, Polytechnics and secondary schools lecturers/teachers are still teaching students the same way the 19th century academic institutions taught forgetting that we are in the 21st century. The same notes given a final year student four years ago are still being given to first year students with no addition and subtraction.  Lecturers cannot write books for students because they do not have the resources to carry out research that form the basis of any academic material.

Whereas students in advanced countries get their hands on books immediately they are released those in Ghana have to wait 4 years or even more to get the same books. What is more the academic facilities including libraries are in a state too appalling to describe. Not a single of our universities can boast of a million volumes of books in their libraries. Even the few books that they have are so old that information contained in them are useless. Very few books have been published by Ghanaians. Due to this most students have to rely on the notes that lecturers give them. This is state of our universities and the little I say about our Polytechnics and secondary schools the better. Our research institutions have achieved very little because they are underfunded and the researchers do not have the expertise and the facilities to carry out any meaningful research. A case in point is Cocoa Research Institute of Ghana (CRIG) located at New Tafo in the Eastern Region. Despite decades of its existence we still export raw cocoa beans for peanuts. No value has been added to the cocoa. CRIG has not been able to come up with other ways in which to use the beans to benefit Ghanaians despite the mounting evidence that the beans have several potential uses.

Apart from the few things Dr. Nkrumah did in his 9 years of administration virtually nothing has been added to it by the various governments who came after him neither the NDC, NPP nor PNC.

I can continue all day but it is a fact that both the NDC and NPP are bunches of hungry politicians with no concrete economic and social agenda to move Ghana beyond the level of importing used computers, used cars, used televisions, used underwear and any used thing you can think of. What are all these telling you about Ghana, the NPP, and the NDC? Do we have any option not to vote for them? Until we have leaders who have visions and are committed to industrialising Ghana beyond agro raw material production, Ghana will continue to be classified as a developing and poor country and even though we will continue to vote we will continue to wallow in abject poverty.

Autism is a syndrome that comes from exhibiting certain combinations or patterns of behavior. Low functioning autism is the term used to describe autistic individuals that are not able to function or deal with every day life. Normal to high functioning autism is used to describe people that exhibit autistic behaviors that are in fact able to deal with real world activities and normal day to day life. Many people diagnosed with autism end up living in less then ideal conditions. Autism is a developmental disorder, that affects many areas of human function such as language, and the ability to communicate. It affects self-help skills, coordination, and the ability of an individual to learn.

Common Behaviors

There are several common traits that will aid in the diagnosis of autism. These traits include, the tendency to stay in isolation or be away from others. Autistic individuals will have a hard time making friends and will seem very awkward in social situations. An autistic person will very rarely look some else in the eye. They will be very naive and easily swayed or manipulated. They are often quite gullible. When an autistic person speaks they will often so so using very formal language. They may speak in a monotone and their use of body language may be very poor. (such as nodding “no” while saying “yes”. Autistic people will generally prefer common routines, they may be very literal in their use of language and may remember and recite a lot of detail without having a lot of understanding. They may also exhibit hyper- or hypo- sensitivity of the senses, have odd tastes in food and clothing as well as very fine or very grossly exaggerated motor coordination.

The more of the above traits an individual exhibits the more severe the case of autism is said to be. In some cases the above symptoms may become helpfully in certain disciplines like science, math, and engineering. These disciplines require a lot of memorization and many autistic’s are quite proficient in these subjects as a result.

Autism and ADHD?

There has been some discussion on about a genetic as well as behavioral link between ADHD and autism. Some experts believe that ADHD should be put considered as a form of autistic spectrum disorder. It is quite common to have children diagnosed with both ADHD and autism together. In children, the two disorders seem very much alike. As the individuals age, the disorders grow and become more apparent. Children with ADHD will often develop normal social skills and be able to communicate with their peers and with others. Autistic children however will continue to show symptoms even as they age. there is still much to learn about the autism spectrum. Even with current advances in technology and medical science, a cure for this condition remains a mystery. The more we study the sooner we will understand the disorder and be able to help those who are diagnosed with this condition.

Mathematics is essential to our daily transactions and applications. All through the years, dedicated mathematicians have made notable contributions to society, by solving problems in diverse fields, including medicine, economics, computer science, psychology, social science, management, physics and engineering.

Mathematicians And How They Fare

Those who adhere to the Pythagoras path, use a combination of computing techniques, computer technology, mathematical theories and algorithms to solve engineering, economic, business and physics problems. Many students pursue higher degrees in general mathematics to become full-fledged mathematicians and then go on to teach. However, these days applied math is becoming a subject of choice for most students. Those with a Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree have excellent employment opportunities in specific fields, involving research. Math majors, in applied and general mathematics do extremely well in their chosen careers.

According to a survey, in 2004, mathematicians were successfully employed in nearly 2,500 positions. In addition, over 20,000 mathematicians held faculty positions in universities and colleges.

Careers For The Math Savvy

Those who have a penchant for the subject can pursue careers in areas like engineering and construction, planning and surveying, research and development, pharmacology and medicine, finance and insurance and any related field of science. Mathematics is often a combination subject. It is taken up with another subject. A successful combination can result in the following options:

-If you are good at math and love geography, you can pursue a career in community development, transportation planning, code enforcement, economic development, natural resources, historic preservation, urban design, parks and recreation and housing.
-If you specialize in math and biology, you can be a microbiologist, physiologist, marine biologist, medical practitioner, zoologist, botanist, ecologist and biotechnologist.
-If math and biology are your chosen subjects, you can pursue a career as a hydrologist, sedimentologist, glacial geologist, volcanologist, paleomagnetist, petroleum geologist, environmental scientist, engineering geologist, paleontologist, geochemist, geomagnetist and seismologist.
-If you have excellent math abilities and also enjoy computer science, then you can probably pursue a career as a network systems analyst, computer scientist, computer programmer, database administrator, telecommunications specialist, software engineer or a programmer analyst.
-When you combine math with art, you can be a part of an exciting profession, like a commercial and industrial designer, landscape architect, archivist, architect, graphic designer, drafter and interior designer.
-Mixing math with business gives you interesting professions such as estimator, broker, financial analyst, ratings analyst, actuary, statistician, accountant and auditor, financial advisor and financial planner to consider.

Many mathematicians work for state governments, insurance companies, pharmaceutical manufacturing, software publishers and aerospace.

By and large, mathematics affects most of what we do in life. It is the foundation for most other subjects and it is fascinating in its own realm. With the consistent technological advancements, applications and career opportunities in mathematics are expanding.

If there is one stage of a woman’s life that is hard to cope up with that would be her menopausal years. As defined, menopause is a stage wherein a woman’s monthly period has stopped. Veering away from the common conception that menopause is a “disease,” people in the medical world says that menopause is nothing but a normal and expected change in any woman’s body.

Unlike before when menopause is clouded by absurd misconceptions and myths, people now are more open in discussing the phenomenon because many studies have proven that menopause is a natural step in the process of a woman’s aging. With the advancement of technology and researches, more and more women are given hope that they can still go on with their life by teaching them to discover and rediscover their purpose in life.

Most studies show that the most common determinant of menopause in women is physical changes. Since menopause is associated with absence of estrogen in the body (since the ovaries has stopped producing them), the reproductive system gradually shuts down.

Experts agree that the average age range of menopause in women is form 50 onwards. But there are cases wherein a woman may experience her menopausal earlier especially if she has undergone surgeries, major operations and a series of therapy due to cancer and other illnesses. Other causes of early menopause are autoimmune disorders, thyroid disease, and diabetes mellitus.

Basically, menopausal years are divided into three phases: the premature menopause, which is distinguished for women whose ages are below 40 years old. Next are the menopausal climax years from 50 and above and the post-menopausal, which is experienced by women 50 and above and are those prone to more serious illnesses such as osteoporosis.

KNOWING THE SIGNS OF MENOPAUSE

Experts agree that menopause pertains to the drastic changes in a woman’s life that greatly affects her physical appearance, sexual function, feelings of well-being, and overall mood.

Technically, a woman is said to reach her menopause when there’s an absence of menstrual period for 12 consecutive months. Here are some of the visible symptoms of menopause:

1.Drastic change in the pattern of menstrual periods. This can be characterized by shorter or longer span of time, lighter or heavier flow of menstruation, and more or less time between periods.
2.Occurrence of hot flashes or hot flushes.
3.Profuse night sweating usually followed by a slight chill.
4. Sleep disturbances and trouble getting enough sleep due to physical discomfort.
5.Vaginal atrophy. This is characterized by thinning, drying, shrinking and thinning of the vagina in most women.
6.Psychological instability characterized by mood disturbances, irritability, fatigue, decreased sexual desire, and memory loss. Violent mood swings, crabbiness, and crying spells, which are usually caused by, pent up frustration due to lack of sleep are also common.
7.Inability to concentrate or focus on tasks properly. This is characterized by great deal of trouble focusing on things because the woman feels mixed-up and confused.
8.Hair issues. Women who are experiencing menopause or those who are about to experience it are having trouble dealing with hair issue due to hair loss or thinning on their head. They also experience hair growth on their face, which is quite unlikely for a woman.
9.Increased estrogen deficiency that leads to vasomotor instability characterized by dyspareunia, itching, dryness, bleeding, urinary frequency, urinary urgency, and urinary incontinence.
10.Skeletal problems and muscle pains such osteoporosis, joint pains, and back pains.

As a woman’s body adapt to the ever-changing levels of natural hormones, more and more symptoms can be traced to menopause.
If you want to prepare for this natural occurrence in a woman’s life, make sure that you visit your doctor so he/she could do the necessary diagnosis and examinations to you. After which, proper solution can be provided by your physician depending on your individual need.

Aesthetic cosmetic surgery on the nose or Rhinoplasty is a sophisticated and demanding work for a plastic surgeon. Therefore it takes a very experienced and skillful plastic cosmetic surgeon to perform a Rhinoplasty operation properly and successfully.

Although a Rhinoplasty operation may be rather complicated, the surgical procedure can usually be completed within an hour since it is quite a minor operation targetted at reshaping the nose of the patient.

Since the shape of the nose of every person’s face is different and each patient wants her nose to be shaped differently, the cosmetic plastic surgeon must have extensive knowledge of a wide range of modern surgical skills and techniques so that he can choose the most suitable treatment for each Rhinoplasty patient. Cosmetic surgeons say that almost every aesthetically imperfect nose can be made more beautiful and elegant by a Rhinoplasty surgical procedure.

The nose is the most prominent feature on a person’s face and that is the reason why a well executed Rhinoplasty operation can have great impact on a person wanting to look more beautiful and elegant.

Many Rhinoplasty patients suffer from unsymmetrical nose feature and the patients they are aware that their nose imperfection is very noticeable. Many sensitive patients may even suffer from psychological depression because this imperfection.This is amongst the many reasons why getting a nose job done up is fast gaining popularity.

Many opinion polls survey on patients who have undergone Rhinoplasty aesthetic nose surgeries showed that the patietnt’s confidence and self esteem are boosted successful nose operations.

The success of an aesthetic nose cosmetic surgery will depend on many factors including anatomical particularities of a patient’s skin and sub-skin structure (how the skin heals itself) and the patient’s likely reaction to the operation are very important.

A successful nose aesthetic surgery also depends very much on pre operation consultation and medical examination of the patient. This is when the patient’s mental vision of her nose is precisely determined and matched with the various possibilities as a result of the surgical procedure.

Rhinoplasty Surgical Procedure

An cosmetic nose surgery is preceded by a routine examination of the patient which will include some blood tests and an ECG.Prior to the operation, photographs the patient are taken. This is standard routine practice before any cosmetic surgery.

The cosmetic plastic surgery is a completely painless procedure because of the use of modern anesthesia.If the operation is done successfully, there may not be even any scars on the patients face.

During Rhinoplasty operation, the nose bone is sculpted using special surgical instruments. Usually patients want their nose to be made smaller but it can be made bigger if the patient wants it otherwise.

When the desired size and shape are obtained, a nasal splint is put on the nose. The splint stays in place for a week to let the nasal structures heal.

During the first three days after the operation, the patient will need a nasal packing which help to prevent bleeding and supports the new shape and form of the nose. The Rhinoplasty operation is done under enhanced local anesthesia. The patient is also given some sedative to reduce stress and tension during the operation. After the eighth day the splint will be removed and the patient will be the owner of a new nose shaped to her requirements.

 Segredo N° 1 -  Atualize-se

Você pode achar ridículo, mas esse é o primeiro e grande segredo das mulheres sedutoras. Muitas pessoas pensam que basta ter um rosto bonito ou um corpo escultural para seduzir qualquer homem. Bem, existem muitos homens que acham que isso é o que basta numa mulher. Entretanto, estes homens também costumam trocar de mulheres como trocam de roupa, pois para eles a mulher é um mero objeto descartável, servindo apenas por alguns momentos de prazer e nada mais.

Se você disser que estes homens são machistas, você terá razão. Mas, de algum modo, as mulheres que se deixam seduzir por tais homens bem que merecem o rótulo de objetos sexuais. O que elas podem dar ao homem, além de excitação física? Depois que os homens estão satisfeitos, já não sentem o menor desejo de continuar ao lado de uma pessoa vazia e destituída de qualquer encanto espiritual.

O que significa uma mulher atualizada? Você estará atualizada quando for capaz de conversar animadamente com um homem sobre a maioria dos assuntos que lhe interessam. Isso não significa que você deva ser uma enciclopédia ambulante ou ler todos os livros do mundo para ser uma mulher atualizada. Ser atualizada é manter-se em dia com os principais assuntos do dia-a-dia. Para você ao menos parecer uma mulher atualizada você deve:

Ler ao Menos um Jornal Diariamente

         Os jornais trazem as principais notícias e, a partir delas, você pode manter-se atualizada permanentemente. Mas não é necessário ler um jornal inteiro. Eis as partes mais importantes de um jornal diário que você deve realmente ler:

-         A Primeira Página

Concentre-se nas manchetes. Em geral, elas dizem o que há de mais importante no interior do jornal. Depois de ver as manchetes, vá direto a elas e leia toda a notícia.

  

-         As Notícias Científicas

Os principais jornais do país trazem sempre uma seção dedicada a notícias do mundo científico. Procure inteirar-se das novas descobertas científicas, projetos e invenções. Tais assuntos estão sempre na moda em qualquer tempo. Quando estiver com um homem culto, poderá falar com segurança sobre temas do seu conhecimento, em vez de ficar apenas balançando afirmativamente a cabeça, dando a impressão de total desconhecimento dos assuntos. Uma mulher sedutora será capaz de pedir a opinião, emitir pareceres e demonstrar conhecimentos verdadeiros.

-         As Colunas Mais Famosas

Descubra quais são os jornalistas mais famosos do jornal diário da sua cidade ou Estado e leia as suas colunas. Eles retratam assuntos que, em geral, são comentados nos principais programas de televisão e rádio.

Quando você estiver em contato com homens intelectuais, ao menos poderá mencionar o nome destes principais colunistas. Como você aprenderá nos próximos capítulos, a segurança em falar sobre assuntos palpitantes diante de um homem inteligente a fará sobressair-se dentre as demais, que só têm um rosto bonito para mostrar.

-         A Página Policial

As tragédias, crimes e todo tipo de barbaridade, sempre dão ibope. Saber quem foi o último seqüestrado, valor do resgate e como se deu a fuga da vítima pode não ser muito interessante, mas estar atualizada implica em saber destes detalhes.

-         Esportes e Política

É comum os homens dizerem que as mulheres não entendem de política ou de esporte. Estão enganados. As mulheres podem entender de tudo que quiserem. Por falta de informações suficientes é que demonstram tão pouco esclarecimento sobre certos assuntos.

Você não precisa aprender os nomes de todos os jogadores dos principais times do país. Mas ao menos deve saber quem foi o último campeão brasileiro e a quanto tempo não obtinha este título. Se você não gosta de futebol, escolha outro esporte, que pode ser mais feminino, fazendo com que os homens fiquem em ligeira desvantagem. Eis os principais:

·        Natação

·        Voleibol

·        Tênis

·        Ginástica

Veja quem são as mulheres e times femininos que mais se destacam e acompanhe a carreira dos mesmos. Quando um homem se vangloriar deste ou daquele jogador ou pugilista famoso, você pode, em contrapartida, mencionar esta ou aquela jogadora de tênis ou de voleibol.

Na política, é necessário você saber ao menos:

·        Quem é governador e vice-governador do seu Estado

·        A que partido eles pertencem

·        Quem é o Presidente da República e o vice-presidente

·        Qual o partido a que eles estão filiados

·        Quais são os principais partidos políticos da atualidade

·        Os nomes de alguns deputados federais ou estaduais mais atuantes

·        Os nomes dos políticos mais influentes no cenário

Além do jornal diário, é importante para manter-se atualizada ler ao menos uma revista conceituada. Escolha aquela geralmente usada pelos executivos. Informe-se sobre qual a revista que na  opinião pública é séria e retrata a realidade atual do país.

Em geral estas revistas são semanais, e por isto mesmo você terá mais tempo para lê-las.

Em geral, os homens cultos acham que a maioria das mulheres só está interessada em horóscopos, culinária, moda e outros assuntos supérfluos. Ficam bastante surpresos quando ouvem uma mulher falar em cotação do dólar e política internacional.

Como você perceberá, não é necessário ter grande profundidade em certos assuntos. Mesmo que você domine política internacional, deverá deixar que o homem revele seus conhecimentos totais. Eles apreciam exibir-se. Se você perceber que um homem está querendo impressioná-la com conhecimentos de política internacional, você pode dar espaço para que ele fale ainda mais, perguntando-lhe:

“Você acha mesmo que a queda do comunismo na Europa do Leste afetará a organização dos partidos de esquerda nos demais países do mundo?”

Essa e outras perguntas só podem ser feitas se você tiver ao menos uma vaga idéia do que seja comunismo, Europa do Leste e partidos de esquerda.

Escute Noticiários

         Escolha um canal para ouvir seus noticiários por uma semana. Na semana seguinte escute outro, e assim sucessivamente, até ter experimentado todos os canais disponíveis. Isso fará você ter uma idéia das tendências jornalísticas. Se ficar atenta, descobrirá que um canal parece estar fazendo uma verdadeira campanha contra o governo, ao passo que outros fazem uma grande Propaganda para ele. Sua visão desta realidade fará com que você escolha o canal que mais se adapte às suas inclinações políticas. Caso você não tenha nenhuma, posso lhe dizer que o melhor caminho é ficar contra o governo. Provavelmente, pouca gente estará ao lado dele e, assim, você não entrará em grandes disputas ideológicas com ninguém.

Converse com Pessoas bem Informadas

         Com toda a certeza você deve ter:

·        Alguém na família

·        Um colega de trabalho

·        Um vizinho

·        Um amigo

que esteja sempre atualizado, e com o qual você poderá conversar semanalmente e obter algumas boas idéias que lhe sejam úteis durante em encontro, uma festa ou bate-papo casual com um homem que demonstre interesse em você.

Conversar com pessoas inteligentes e intelectualizadas pode lhe render muito em termos de atualização, poupando-lhe muito tempo.

Tenha em Casa uma Boa Enciclopédia

         Quantas vezes você já se perguntou sobre algo que não obteve resposta? Ter à mão uma enciclopédia pode ajudá-la, em muito, a tirar as dúvidas que você acumulou ao longo de vários anos. Ninguém é obrigado a saber tudo, mas existem coisas que não se pode deixar de ter algum conhecimento. Uma boa enciclopédia responderá muitas perguntas sobre temas  que em geral são comentados em conversas com homens cultos e refinados. Se você ler diariamente ao menos duas páginas de uma enciclopédia, ao final de um ano terá lido mais de 700 páginas, e provavelmente estará na frente de milhares de mulheres que sequer abriram a página de um bom livro. Se você achar que nada disso tem a ver com a sedução, engana-se redondamente.

         A maioria dos homens cultos acha extremamente sedutoras as mulheres que, além de serem bonitas e charmosas, são capazes de acompanhá-los num papo agradável sem dizer abobrinhas.

         De nada adiantará você seduzir um homem com seus encantos físicos, se não obtiver dele respeito, consideração e admiração por seus demais atributos morais e intelectuais.

         Como obter isso? O respeito só poderá ser conseguido quando você mostrar, naturalmente, que não é apenas um rosto e um corpo bonito, disponível para o prazer, mas também é um ser humano, pleno de conhecimentos e valores.

Atualização Global

         Como está o seu guarda-roupa? Atualizado e moderno? Ou será que está desatualizado e ultrapassado? Ser uma mulher atualizada significa saber o que vestir, o que comer, o que beber e falar nos momentos oportunos.

         Para conseguir essa atualização é necessário informar-se, conforme foi-lhe ensinado nas páginas anteriores. Existem também revistas de moda e etiqueta com seções dedicadas à atualização da mulher moderna.

         Nos capítulos dedicados às dicas de beleza, você aprenderá muitas coisas sobre estes assuntos. Coloque-as em prática.

         Como está o seu português? Você sabe empregar os verbos no tempo certo? Seus deslizes são toleráveis, ou será que você, ao abrir a boca, comete verdadeiros crimes à língua-pátria?

         Fazer um cursinho de atualização em Língua Portuguesa a ajudará em muito a expressar-se melhor em meio a homens cultos e intelectualizados. Nada é menos sedutor para um homem que, depois de se aproximar de uma mulher, de beleza estonteante, ouvir dela uma dolorosa frase com incoerências verbais.

         Você pode evitar que tais coisas ocorram, prevenindo-se antecipadamente.

Selecione os bons sites da Internet

       A Internet oferece atualmente inúmeras oportunidade de atualização. Leia os sites que contenham notícias, informações, atualidade, etc. Faça uma seleção dos mais importantes. Assine sites de conteúdo.

BANDEIRA BRANCA

O que era segredo de amizade,conto agora,passados 29 anos do ocorrido pois já é muito tempo para pouca intimidade.O seu nome era Drumond,soldado raso , vindo do interior de Minas Gerais onde criou fama por ter viajado a capital e se apresentar como voluntário ao exercito.

-Este vai nos encher de orgulho!!-Dizia ele o que se falava por lá, pelas bandas do sul de minas.O mesmo comentava ao vento não haver no Doze, alguém mais vibrador.Me lembrei deste fato por ter ouvido sobre as mordomias e facilidades que os soldados de hoje tem no quartel.Outrora,o governo era militar e o presidente um general do exercito,assim,só para começar,ser voluntario nos anos 80 era masoquismo ou desconhecimento de tudo.

Afirmo com certeza que meu amigo Drumond não era masoquista.O porque,conto já.Com o tempo passando,a vida na caserna começou a mostrar a realidade.Certamente não era lugar para alguém que não aceitasse obedecer ordens. ou aquele que quisesse destaque.Para ser o maioral ali tem-se que entrar por outra porta.Ou assim era.Dono de um genio indomável,Drumond passou a ser alvo constante dos sargentos e oficiais.Tava ali um touro jovem a ser domado, porém preso.

Quanto mais resistia ,mais sofria.Não adiantava os conselhos dados pelos colegas para que se conformasse.

–Não tenho sangue de barata!!– dizia– Tá pra nascer o homem que mande em mim..Em segredo me dizia estar desapontado com o quartel.Esperava um tipo de glória especial.Confiou na Propaganda para atrair voluntários

–Parecia bonito..–Era um momento de rara sinceridade.

Passou a perguntar aos mais veteranos o que tinha de fazer para ser expulso,já que não queriam por bem sairia por mal.Alguns querendo ver o espetaculo que aquele caipira maluco poderia fazer sugeriram entre outras coisas que saisse no tapa com um superior.Para Drumond,era pouco.Talvez desse alguns dias de cadeia para os dois,mas só.E foi na cadeia que pensou achar a soluçao.Passou ali 15 dias por ter dito palavras inapropriadas não para a filha do coronel,como pensaram alguns, mas para a esposa dele.O comandante,o coronel em questão,sabia do esforço daquele para ser expulso e que era fato conhecido e esperado por toda tropa.Por prevençaõ o mandou para cadeia.Ali conheceu um condenado por deserção com uma pena de 2 anos e 3 meses de regime fechado só saindo para um rápido e diário banho de sol.Tratava-se de uma figura singular ,inesquecível.No dia em que foi solto por cumprimento da pena,o vi ir embora com o uniforme apertado,barriga de fora.Mas além de engordar também enlouquecera e o suicídio foi o seu fim poucos dias depois.Pois fora deste que Drumond escutara:

–Só tem duas maneiras de ser expulso daqui.Uma é por ser homossexual a outra é por uso de drogas.

Idéias esquisitas mas que não tiraram a disposição do recruta.Aliás neste aspecto o exercito não mudou.Havia um tenente que, com permissão do leitor, o chamarei de JJ.Vinte poucos anos,bem aparentado vindo de família carioca, mas rica.Não havia motivos, a não ser ocultos, para tirar o sustento do meio militar.Acredito que por isso,criou fama de gostar de soldados, pricipalmente os mais novos.Drumond se informou disso e o tranformou em alavanca na sua luta para ser expulso.JJ parecia desconhecer os objetivos do antes voluntário militar.Mas confirmando sua fama,se encantou pelo jovem e deu os motivos que Drumond queria para um escandalo .A sensação que tive era que o tenente tinha muitos desafetos pois o processo de expulção foi tão rápido quanto a velocidade com que se espalhou a calúnia.Tinha o dedo de Drumond.

Era uma manhã linda que definitivamente não combinava com uma cerimônia de expulsão do Exército Brasileiro.Para quem nunca viu vou descreve-la,pois muito me impressionou e ainda é vívida na memória.Toda tropa tem de ver para evitar uma “contaminação”,diziam..Perfilados estavam cerca de mil soldados ou o contigente todo do quartel,menos a guarda em serviço que dava segurança em tempos de guerrilha.Sem demora e acompanhado de dois guardas,JJ é trazido como que indo para a execução.Diante de toda a tropa ,é lida a sentença: “expulso por atos não condizentes com a vida militar trazendo vergonha sobre os colegas e para o exército brasileiro” algo assim.O Coronel comandante se aproxima de JJ e num movimento exagerado,arranca as insignias de tenente do seu ombro e as joga no chão.Seu uniforme é igualmente retirado ficando só de cuecas.Humilhado, não perdeu a pose e de cabeça erguida assiste a tropa inteira passar a sua frente ,ao som de um único surdo, olhando para o lado oposto num ato de repulsa.Drumond da janela do alojamento onde estava detido observa toda a cena e depois me conta que sentiu inveja do tenente.Deste nunca mais ouvir falar.

O desanimo tomou conta do meu colega de caserna.Não queriam expulsa-lo.Sacrificaram um competente Oficial mas ele estava fadado a ficar até mais que o obrigatório.Como exemplo,diga-se, o que fiquei sabendo depois.O fato é que tentei anima-lo.Contei a ele uma história sobre o quartel, na tentativa de criar nele um orgulho de ser militar, o que como já disse, eu passei a ter.Uma necessária aliança.

–Na década de 30 houve uma revolução em que o nosso quartel se viu cercado por forças poderosas e resistimos meses de forma heróica. –Disse isso mostrando a ele as marcas de tiros que até hoje marcam as paredes e mastro da badeira do quartel.Era um museu ao ar livre,um lembrete a todos os que ali passavam.Ele parecia não estar interessado mas continuei:

–O único jeito de abreviar a situação era envenenar o suprimento de água do quartel,que era fora dos seus domínios– Este conhecimento me esclarecera o porque da atual caixa d’água ser no meio do quartel e o ponto mais alto do mesmo.

–Pois o fizeram.Rapidamente a tropa enfraqueceu e antes que a derrota fosse total e humilhante,um jovem Tenente de nome Christo amarrou uma camisa na ponta da baioneta,como uma bandeira branca de rendição Um improviso que entrou para a história.Um ato de coragem pois andara no fogo cruzado anunciando o fim desejado da revolução.– Hoje sei que este oficial morrera cheio de dias e como General.

Parei o relato por observar um brilho nos olhos de Drumond.Algo se acendera naquela mente capaz de artimanhas.Passei a noite com receios de suas atitudes.Ele com certeza não pensaria em mim para conseguir seu intento.O que faria agora?

Seis semanas se passaram e tudo na mais tranquila paz.Drumond parecia outro.Seria a minha pequena história?A verdade era que ele havia mudado.Primeiro os sargentos depois os oficiais começaram a demonstrar real confiança no rebelde.Ledo engano.

Era dia de tropa perfilada.Aguardava-se a visita do General, comandante de brigada.

Terminada a corneta, um silêncio seguido de risos que logo se transformaram em gargalhadas espalhadas por toda a tropa em forma.De longe comecei a enteder a comédia.Um trapo branco tremulava no pau da bandeira.Era uma cueca visivelmente suja.Um General sorridente se aproxima ao ouvido do Coronel comandante e diz algo não tão humorado.Isto porque o Coronel se dirigi ao microfone e em voz séria faz uma pergunta a tropa:

–Quem foi o responsável por isto?

Não fiquei tão surpreso quando prontamente Drumond dá um passo a frente e grita

–Eu soldado Drumond, 1698, companhia de comando e serviço,senhor– completou já com um sorriso na cara.Mais tarde raciocinei que na prosa que tivera com ele sobre o Tenente heroi da década de 30, ele imaginara toda aquela situação.Era o brilho que saira do seu olhar.Fora uma grande jogada mas não de mestre.Não o expulsaram.Na verdade conquistara uma admiração da parte de alguns sargento e cabos,pela sua coragem.Como premio o colocaram na primeira baixa o que prorrogara o sofrimento do soldado apenas por mais poucos meses.Saiu sem se despedir e no esquecimento dos companheiros.Mas na minha memória ficou marcado como a outra bandeira branca heróica do Doze.

The practice of reproducing tapestry art for use in the home is becoming more popular by the year. The versatility of tapestry lends itself easily to use for a more substantial version of masterpieces. Among the many reproductions of famous artwork sometimes seen in living rooms are scenes from a work known as the Bayeux Tapestry.

The Bayeux Tapestry has been the source of much controversy over the centuries since the Norman Conquest. Strictly speaking, it’s not a tapestry at all, but a series of embroidered panels stretching some 230 feet in length. It has long been held up as one of the most authentic historic accountings of William the Conqueror’s invasion of Britain.

There is enough muddle over its commission, origin and authenticity to spur vigorous debate at many a dinner party or soiree. Portions of the ‘tapestry’ are well known enough to be easily recognizable, and the events that took place are clearly depicted. How accurate the portrayal is has oft been brought into question, however.

The Tapestry’s Origin

The commission of the tapestry has alternately been assigned to various parties. Some attribute it to William’s devoted wife Mathilde, who was said to have stitched it with her ladies in waiting. They point to one Aethelflaed, widow of Byrhtnoth, Earl of Essex who died in the Battle of Malden in 991. Aethelflaed commissioned a tapestry of her husband’s last stand in honor of Byrhtnoth, and presented it to the Ely Cathedral.

A more plausible explanation perhaps is that William’s half-brother, the Bishop Odo of Bayeux, directed that the tapestry be embroidered in England by Saxon nuns. Others maintain the work was done in Winchester itself. Certainly the tapestry is of the right length to surround the nave of the Bayeux Cathedral, and the stitching is comparable to premier English needle workers of the time.

The tapestry itself has several prominent scenes which have been reproduced for home interior use. Harold’s preparations for the invasion is one, the launching of William’s fleet to set sail for Britain and his subsequent landing comprise two more. The Battle of Hastings which concludes the existing tapestry is particularly favored as a reproduction.

Historical Accuracy In Doubt

Still more debate rages over the actual historical value of the tapestry, seeing as how it was commissioned by the victors and understandably can be expected to be slanted hard in their favor. There is no solid description of the Norman conquest from the invaded countrymen’s point of view, and nearly all of the information we have of the event is gleaned from the tapestry itself.

The Normans maintain that William had received an oath of support from Harold, brother-in-law of Edward the Confessor, after William had rescued Harold from shipwreck. When Harold ascended to the throne of England upon Edward’s death, William invaded citing Harold’s breach of faith as the reason.

Historians differ in their acceptance of this version of events. The only collaboration of Harold’s oath ever occurring is in a Norman account dating a full ten years after the invasion. This naturally falls under the same suspicion as it is likely the Normans would paint themselves in the best possible light despite the real facts of the matter.

Be that as it may, the panels showing Harold swearing allegiance and later being killed are among some of the most well known panels. The controversy lingers – The panel showing the Prince’s death holds some ambiguity as to how he actually died. Tradition holds that it was an arrow through the eye that took him out, but the embroidered words on the tapestry are ambiguous both in context and placement.

Tapestry Still Worth Consideration

Some things in the tapestry ring undeniably true; the appearance of Halley’s comet is chronologically correct, and the castles of the time are depicted inside and out with what seems to be reasonable accuracy based on excavations of similar sites. It is likely that there is as much truth as Propaganda in the tapestry as a whole, much like many other historic documents written from one side’s point of view.

When looking at the panels available as reproductions, you should decide which portion of the story you wish to concentrate on. Most of the research concerning the Norman conquest is based on the tapestry itself, so don’t expect to find much more than general suppositions. One thing you can count on is for the controversy to continue. Whatever the panel or panels you choose for your home, you can rest assured your selected portion of the Bayeux Tapestry will quickly become a conversation piece and a valuable, interesting addition to your home.

The Wisconsin property tax, levied at the local level, is used for funding community colleges, fire support and police, school systems and funding local government .Wisconsin property taxes like taxes of other states contribute to the state government fund.

The tax rates are calculated locally and can vary according to area. The amount of tax payable for properties in Wisconsin is similar to other states and are dependent namely on two factors. They are the millage rate and value of the house. The local tax assessor is responsible for estimating the price of your house and sending a notice, which gives information about the fair value of your house in the real estate market. For farmers, their agricultural land is taxed based on its agricultural value rather than its real estate value, thereby offering a tax break to farmers in Wisconsin. The estimation of market value of agricultural land is done by the state rather than by tax assessors.

The revenue department of the state has an important role to play in estimation of land value as the value of tax differs state to state and also due to the fact that tax assessors can function 10% below or above the original fair market value. After submission of list of properties values by the district tax assessors, the state calculates the average value, commonly known as equalized value. This ranking helps in reducing tax, especially the part of funds assigned for the state.

The equalized value is utilized for many other purposes like estimating the amount of property taxes in the Wisconsin state.
The state uses this value to distribute tax burden and also to distribute aid to throughout the state.

Wisconsin stands in the 9th position with regard to the total amount of property tax paid by its citizens. A median homeowner resident of Wisconsin pays $2777 of property taxes by owning a house of worth $1, 52,000.

If you get a notice from a tax assessor which gives a high determination of market value for your property, then you can submit an appeal about his evaluation. If the determined high rate of tax is true, then you may get a deduction in the Wisconsin property tax.

Wisconsin, similar to other states, gives a homestead exemption for house owners. Though the state gives exemption it is not available for everybody. It can be availed only by house owners getting lower income. In addition to above, the state provides a property tax deferral loan program. This program is all about providing loans to qualifying senior citizens to help them pay their property taxes for their houses.

After researching much of the information regarding the Informant system, I believe this is at the heart of much of the corruption that we are seeing in our society. In our justice systems and in our communities. I believe this system is enslaving large portions of society. I also believe that there are many of us that were and are blissfully unaware of what is happening and will remain so until it is too late.

There is a chain reaction that is happening in society that if left unchecked has the potential to infect and destroy the very core of society that we have all known and depended on. That is of course the snitching infection. I call it that, because there is no other way to describe some of the events that I have read about while doing research into the Informant system.

While researching this phenomenon I have come across people who one minute seemed like average decent persons, and the next minute after being caught up in the Snitching/Informant system were willing to sell their very mothers down the drain to keep themselves free. This is not going to be the case for every Informant, but it’s the case with too many that are a part of this system.

Once let loose back into society many will continue with a life of crime. others will continue with what I call the game.

The Game

The game is one of set up’s and betrayal where the Informant will try to set someone up for a fall. They will choose a target and the unsuspecting target will get caught up in a scheme of some kind, eventually be arrested, they do not necessarily have to have committed a crime, and then the informant will testify against the person they entrapped, or other informants will. Once this new person is caught up in the game, should they be turned informant then the cycle continues once again.

I don’t know how many Informants are a part of this game that is ongoing in society, but I suspect that the many are, and all of them once they decide to become informants are owned by the system, and their handlers. That means anytime the government wants or needs a favor guess who they will call upon? Do you begin to see the makings of a corrupt society? Remember they can call upon these informants years later after these informants have been let loose. Many of these Informants will also go onto have careers, and even become contributing members of society, but they are still owned by the state. A lot of these Informant deals are kept off the records, meaning that the person is owned by a handler, but there might not be an official record of it, but when that handler needs a favor, that Informant will be called upon, and will risk exposure if they do not comply.

[quote]For example, unlike a classic plea bargain, informant deals lack finality because an informant’s obligations are ongoing. Written co-operation agreements often extend a defendant’s obligations into perpetuity, while informal, unwritten agreements last as long as the police or prosecutor wishes to use that informant.[/quote]

To understand how the game works, we will review three case studies. These are just a few of the many that I came across when reading the stories on the wall. It’s a continued pattern of set up on unsuspecting pigeons, and hardened Informants who will do what they need to do to stay out of jail.

http://www.november.org/thewall/wall/wall.html

Before we review the case studies I am going to again remind you of some statistics.

http://www.aclu.org/images/asset_upload_file744_30623.pdf

[quote] as many as fifty percent of African American males in some cities – are in contact with the criminal justice system and therefore potentially under pressure to snitch. By relying heavily on snitching, particularly in drug-related cases, law enforcement officials create large numbers of informants who remain at large in the community, engaging in criminal activities while under pressure to provide information about others. These snitches are a communal liability: they increase crime and threaten social organization, interpersonal relationships, and socio-legal norms in their home communities, even as they are tolerated or under-punished by law enforcement because they are useful.[/quote]

[quote]The uncoordinated, widespread use of informants in the United States by thousands of different police departments and various federal agencies does not of course, amount to the focused, purposeful political mission of the Stasi. But if anywhere near eight percent of the male population in inner city communities is snitching, that figure meets or surpasses Stasi level of between one and ten percent of the total population as informers.[/quote]

http://november.org/stayinfo/breaking08/HoffmanCase.html

[quote]If things had gone according to plan, you never would have heard of 23-year-old Rachel Hoffman. She would have just been another confidential informant, one of more than an estimated 100,000 in the United States who work with police to send someone else to jail.[/quote]

These figures do not include people who are informers via work, school, or community group programs. When we take into consideration numbers such as that, we are looking at an epidemic that is worst than what happened in East Germany. Keep in mind that in addition to all this, there will also be 800,000 Terrorism Liaison Officers added to the Informant population in the United States. These figures should wake up America and other cities to the dangers of what is happening in various societies.

The Game

To understand the game you might want to picture it in the sense of how a disease spreads, you start with on carrier and that person infects one person right after another. Some of those carriers will go on to infect others. Some will be dormant and not infect anyone. You might also want to think of the movie lifeforce, where one has the constant need to feed on one person after another, then those victims need to feed on others. You can have a very sick and infested city in a short space of time if such an infection goes unchecked.

The game is one of the Informant being placed primarily back in society, but this could also happen in jail, where an informant via lies, deceit, entrapment or some other methods set’s up another person to take a fall. That person then come in contact with the criminal justice system, they can then choose to become informants themselves, or refusing to do so, will spend lengthy spaces of time in prison. This game is primarily enacted via drugs, but that’s not the extent of it. Shoplifting is another example. I see this used with the teenaged informants, setting up their friends to steal from the stores, so that they in turn can become snitches.

Theft, drugs, stolen cars, any crime that someone can make a deal with police to become informants, they can be released back into society and are a danger to the rest of society. This is not to say that all Informants are horrible people, many just did not want to be in jail, some others are a true danger to society, nearly all are under pressure by the government to produce other Informants, and that obligation is never ending, some are allowed to lay dormant, till they can be of use.

[quote]In Hoffman’s case, it was the work of another informer that led to her own work for the police.

On April 15, an informer told Tallahassee police that Hoffman had sold marijuana in the past but hadn’t done so recently, according to police records.

At the time, Hoffman, 23, was in a pretrial drug diversion program because of charges of possession of marijuana and resisting arrest in February 2007. To stay in the program, she had to stay out of trouble.

Two days after police got the informer’s tip, a Tallahassee police officer stopped Hoffman as she was getting into her car
[/quote]

http://www.mapinc.org/images/Hoffman.jpg

Rachael Hoffman then went on to become an Informant. She first tried to set up a close friend and when that failed, the close friend helped her find the dealers who she tried to buy drugs from on behalf of the police. The sting went wrong and she was killed. Had this gone successfully, those drug dealers if they agreed to become informants might have been released back into society as Informants and the cycle would have continued. It’s a frightening cycle that has become more widespread than can be imagined.

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/snitch/

Case number 2.

Joey Settembrino was a young 18 year old, just about to go off to college.

He was set up by an Informant. The Informant was a close friend of his. He use to spend his weekends at the Informants house.

[quote]He was a very good friend. I had known the guy for many years. We had gone out every weekend, fishing on his boat, hydrosliding, skiing. I was very shocked; it was very unexpected. It’s not something you expect from friends.[/quote]

In an Informants society, it’s what you expect from just about everyone and it makes people suspicious and closed off. This is what happened in East Germany once the population became aware of what was happening. In America many Americans are not aware that these types of games are being played. In these cases the targets were encouraged and did get into illegal activities, however that is not always the case, and many times innocent people who had nothing to do with illegal activities are still caught up in these games and convicted on the testimony of Informants.

[quote]He wanted me to go back to the house where I got the acid from and get something else. They wanted me to wear a wire and they wanted me to go back there … to buy some other type of drug, no matter what it was, whatever he had in the house, so they could set him up. Just a chain reaction, one gets to one, one gets the other and they just keep going. I told him that I couldn’t do that, that I didn’t get the drugs from that house. At that time I was really confused. I was shocked, and I told him that I couldn’t do anything for him. But he kept trying, he kept threatening, talking about a lot of time. “You’re going to do 25 years. You’re going to be in prison your whole life.” … He really tried to scare me. But I told him I couldn’t do anything for him … . [Eventually] they went back to the house in which I got it from, they arrested the other guy, my friend [who I bought the acid from]. And he’s now doing a 10-year sentence along with me.
[/quote]

Joey said it best. This is like a chain reaction that just keeps going and going. One get’s one, then another and another and another. Those in turn get others and the cycle continues. Remember it’s not just drugs, and it’s not just the guilty that are being caught up in this game. If we review cases of Gang Stalking, we hear of men who thought that a woman had entered their life for the sole purpose of setting them up to look like a rapist or something else.

There are stories of targets being framed or other set up’s, and there are targets that do turn informant and then go back into society and try to harm other targets. This is happening in ever sector of society. Rachel, Joey and even Clarence were all going off to college, or had finished college when they were caught up in these stings.

Joey refused to become a snitch and thus spent 10 years in jail. His friend that set him up, who had been caught for drugs himself, was back on the streets, selling drugs, and setting up at least 11 or 12 others in the first year that Joey was in jail.

[quote]
Do you know why they wanted you?

I’ve asked that question, I’ve asked myself that a thousand times, “Why me? Why did he set me up?” …
[/quote]

In this game that is happening, I would say that they want just about everyone. They will get some people via community programs to be Informants, some via their places of employment, or community programs. Now the people who are informants via community programs and other legit means might not play the game of setting people up directly, but they are still part of the game, and they still work hand in hand with these others that are playing by a different set of rules. Many might not be aware of who they are working hand in hand with. At the end of the day, they all work for the state, government and all the orders come from the same sources.

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/snitch/cases/aaron.html

Clearance is in jail because he introduced two parties that wanted to buy or sell drugs to each other. He had never been involved with drugs before, but one day his cousin called him up and asked him if he could find someone to buy drugs from. He said he knew some people and thought that they might be involved in dealing, he would check into it.

Clearances case is interesting because all the other parties who turned Informant received less time than he did. He does not know why his cousin and the others turned against him and lied, or why the prosecutor seemed intent on punishing him because he would not snitch and become an Informant.

[quote]What was it like having your friends testify against you?

Well, we’re sitting in the courtroom. These guys that I knew all my life came up, and they said [stuff] about me that wasn’t true, and they hurt me. It really truly hurt me, Robert and James really hurt me ’cause James is my first cousin. I looked up to him all my life. Robert was supposed to be my best friend at the time. We grew up together from playing Pop ball all the way up to high school ball together, and I couldn’t believe that they would sit there, in front of me … and say the things that they said about me … . [The] only thing I could say was it wasn’t true. But nobody believed me … . You had to have a fall guy, and I was that person.
[/quote]

It should be noted that the others involved all had prior drug convictions. Which means if they were out on the street and able to set him up, they were likely already Informants. He doesn’t know why they turned on him, but it’s possible that this might have been the idea from the get go. The assumption being that he would turn snitch and then be in a prime candidate on the college campus, a pawn to be used to set up other pawns, because that is how the game works.

[quote]Why did he do it?

Well, I had a opportunity to talk to James one time … . He said, “Man, I’m sorry, man.” I say, “James, why you do me like that?” He say, “Because I had no choice.” I said, “What you mean you have no choice in the matter?” He say “Because Miss Griffin say she didn’t want Bob to try your case.” She say if [he] didn’t cooperate and do what she told him to do, that she was going to hurt him worse in his case … . He say, “Well, the prosecutor Miss Griffin said if I don’t do it she going to put me in prison for the rest of my life … . I got to do what I got to do.”
[/quote]

He stats that the prosecutor pulled his cousin aside and when his cousin went back on the stand, his cousin lied. This is not the first time scenarios like this have happened, it can only be imagined what these prosecutors or handlers have on these Informants to make them sell out their own friends, and family.

[quote]And the real drug dealers are out —

On the street now. And probably doing the same thing they were doing before they went in. I just don’t understand.
[/quote]

He also does not understand, but if you review enough of these cases, you start to see a pattern and you start to understand, this is how the game works, and yes they are probably back on on the street looking for the next pigeon to set up, and try to turn them into informants.

It reminds me of something a forum member once told me. This guy said that he was set up because he met this woman online, who he dated only to discover that she was married. Her husband got mad and that’s why he thought he was set up.

The person on my forum pointed out that he had met the woman via some co-workers who introduced him to the website where he located this woman. The person on my forum suggested that he was probably profiled and set up by the co-workers who sent him to the site, knowing he would met this woman. The idea is that these games and set up’s take place long before the victim is aware that they are part of a game.

The Global outlook.

Targets of Gang Stalking complain that even when they leave countries such as the U.K., Canada, U.S. that the stalking continues. That is understandable we have seen muli-governmental corporation in other investigations.

What is not understandable and the most frightening sector of this is that various targets have moved to a variety of countries and they all report the same thing, Informants that are able to follow them 24/7.

This suggest that these Informant networks are getting global in nature. They are popping up in areas that are unexpected, and if this trend continues we will have a global surveillance society.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/aug/04/israelandthepalestinians.middleeast1/print

[quote]Middle East: Israel’s secret police pressuring sick Gazans to spy for them, says report· Treatment only offered to would-be informants
· Patients allowed to cross the border drops sharply[/quote]

The same situation is happening in Iraq where they previously had family structures that might have prevented Informant networks from spreading as rapidly. The country will be rebuilt and the Informant structure will be a part of it.

Why would a global surveillance society be necessary?

I will not speculate. I will however say that based on research many societies in history that had a dictator, tyrant, or despot who came to power and who wanted to pull off an unpopular agenda’s such as Hitlers Germany, or Stasi East Germany, employed an army of Informants. It’s the most effective way that a society can control, monitor and subdue the inhabitants.

Since history has shown us that these informant networks are often needed to move forward tyrannical agendas, then can it be assumed that if we could slow down or stop the chain reaction of the Informant movement, we might be able to stop some of the corruption that we are seeing in many areas of society?

Stopping the Chain Reaction.

To stop the Informant infection people need to be aware that there is a lethal chain reaction happening in many parts of society. They need the understanding of how the game is played, and awareness of how far spread and how far reaching it is.

In America prison system reform could go a long way towards fixing the system that has become corrupt. Then prosecutors would not be as dependent on the testimonies of Informants and the power could start to shift back.

The family structure. Communities with less stable family structures are more vulnerable to this system.

People need to be aware that these entrapment’s are happening at every level of society, ever profession in society, thus why it goes all the way up to the top.

If people are unaware, they will not realise the various ways that people can become entrapped, including using someone that you are in a personal association with, or who you just “accidentally” meet. Someone you have a business relationship with.

Some people they will use their own greed and stupidity against them. Other will be a deliberate trap, others will be framed and will have committed no crime. Not being aware of how this system works, many will quietly accept off the record deals, and thus become indebted to the state, able to be used at will. Remember this is happening at all levels of society. Rich, poor, black, white, male, female.

If you have a parent, grandparent that was a snitch, Informant, they might try to go after the next generation.

Your friends, family, co-workers, anyone that is an Informant not by choice but by force, can be a liability to an innocent person.

The problem is more widespread that many realise, and what’s even worst is the silence that surrounds this problem in society. Till it’s talked about, discussed, and exposed it will continue to infect society, and have far reaching and unimaginable consequences, not just for those caught up in the game, but for the many unsuspecting victims, targets, or pigeons yet to come. This is not just happening at local levels. Targets have moved to various countries around the globe and encounter the same type of surveillance network.

We must stop this chain reaction. Awareness and exposure are key.

Happy Holidays.
