Wind Farms and Eagle Deaths: The Dilemmas of Green Energy R

• by Kristina Chew
• May 20, 2013

Wind energy is a key component of President Obama’s energy policy, with its goals of putting the U.S. on a solid foundation for clean energy, fighting climate change and protecting the environment.  The huge turbines can be built with parts made in the U.S.. Wind power is just one way that the U.S. can work toward “energy independence” and in a way that is sustainable and does not sully the air we breathe and heat up the planet.

 

Given pressing public health concerns about air pollution around the world, the White House’s green energy policy is also key to keeping the U.S. at the forefront of innovation. It’s no wonder that the Obama administration is devoting funds to support the development of wind energy.

 

Wind turbines can be as tall as a 30-story building, with whirling blades that can reach speeds of up to 170 mph at their tips. Tragically, a number of birds, including at least 20 protected golden eagles, have flown into the turbines and been injured or killed, says a recent Associated Press report that underscores the huge challenges in developing green energy sources.

 

Wind Farms and Golden Eagles

 

The blades of wind turbines appear to rotate slowly and the eagles, who “behave like drivers texting on their cellphones” when they’re in flight looking for food, do not see them until it is too late. Rocky Mountain Raptor Program director Michael Tincher tells the AP that he euthanized two golden eagles whom he found starving near the turbines. Eagle expert Grainger Hunt puts it simply: “There is nothing in the evolution of eagles that would come near to describing a wind turbine. There has never been an opportunity to adapt to that sort of threat.”

 

According to the AP, the wind farms have been the cause of 14 eagle deaths at seven facilities in California; five deaths each in New Mexico and Oregon, one in Washington state and another in Nevada “where an eagle was found with a hole in its neck, exposing the bone.” The Fish and Wildlife Service is currently investigating 18 cases of bird deaths caused by wind power facilities and referred seven to the Justice Department.

 

What Should Be Done About Eagle Deaths Due to Wind Turbines?

 

Needless to say, these incidents raise a huge dilemma as the U.S. moves forward in developing green energy. The likes of Fox News has been quick to contend that there’s a discrepancy in the Obama administration’s response to wind farms vs. oil companies. Golden eagles are protected under the federal Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (which makes the single death of one bird illegal) and the government has had PacifiCorp, which operates coal plants in Wyoming, pay more than $10.5 million in fines after 232 eagles were electrocuted by the company’s power lines.

 

In the interest of moving forward with its green energy policy, the White House has not been requiring wind power companies to disclose how many birds are killed. According to the AP, the government has also proposed a rule that would give wind-energy companies a dispensation in the deaths of birds, by allowing for them to apply for 30-year permits under which they would be allowed to kill a set number of bald or golden eagles. Previously, they could only receive five-year permits.

 

How Can We Make Wind Farms Safer For Birds?

 

There is another discrepancy that goes unmentioned by those who claim green energy providers are getting some sort of preferential treatment. It is certainly problematic that many — the Wildlife Society Bulletin‘s March report says 573,000 — birds are dying because of wind turbines, but the U.S. cannot expect to rely on coal and oil in the long term or in the short term for their energy needs. Our planet’s environment and our health have already and continue to be damaged from the burning of coal and emissions from vehicles. It could be said that the fines that PacifiCorp and other companies have had to pay are just the tip of the iceberg of what they “owe” for destroying the ozone layer.

 

One thing that can be done is to develop more options for eagles, hawks and migratory birds when they are in the vicnity of wind turbines. One wind power facility, Duke Energy’s Top of the World wind farm in Wyoming — which is under investigation by the federal government for killing birds – is trying to take steps to protect eagles.

 

Some methods the company is using includes telling workers to drive more slowly so eagles will not be scared from their roosts; removing rock piles where the bird’s prey lives; using radar technology to detect eagles. Duke Energy is also considering blaring loud music to prevent the birds from flying too close to the turbines. It also shut off 13 turbines for a week in March, a particular deadly time for eagles; according to the company, no eagles were killed that month. Could the eagles’ behavior be studied and a plan developed to periodically shut down wind turbines?

 

Of course, we need golden eagles and hawks and migratory birds. As Rob Manes, who runs the Kansas office for The Nature Conservancy also says, “we need renewable energy in this country.”

Highlights of Offshore Leaks So Far ~ ICJC Investigations

 

By Kimberley Porteous and Emily Menkes

May 13, 2013, 6:30 pm

 

 

This month marks the beginning of one of the biggest financial leaks in history.

 

The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists has just released the first stories from a global collaborative project into the world of offshore money. The Tax Justice Network, an advocacy group, claims that a third of the world’s wealth is tied up in the secret area of offshore.

 

For the past 15 months, journalists from over 40 countries have worked together to shed light on this issue.

 

And here’s some of what they found:

 

• British tax authorities said they were working with the United States and Australian tax administrations on analyzing a 400GB data cache “showing the use of companies and trusts in a number of territories around the world including Singapore, the British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands and the Cook Islands,” the British tax office statement said. The data cache is believed to be the same one obtained by ICIJ and used as a basis for the Offshore Leaks investigation. 

  British authorities say they have so far identified “over 100 people who benefit from these structures  … and are under investigation for offshore tax evasion,” as well as 

  more than 200 UK accountants, lawyers and other middlemen who helped set up the offshore structures.
   

• A Canadian man who vanished a decade ago in a possible underworld killing set up offshore companies and bank accounts before he went missing, documents contained in the ICIJ data cache show.

    
   

• Bankrupt real estate mogul Hans Thulin had as much as $17 million sheltered offshore at a time when the Swedish government was pursuing him in court for millions of dollars in unpaid debts.
   
• Despite Finnish government promises to lead the fight against tax evasion, it turns out the state-owned postal service, Itella, has subsidiaries in offshore tax havens. Jutta Urpilainen, the Finnish finance minister, said she found the Itella revelation ”repulsive”.
   
• Five directors of Banco Amambay, owned by Paraguay’s leading candidate in this month’s presidential election, Horacio Manuel Cartes, created a secret bank in the Cook Islands with no building and no staff.
   
• Crocodile Dundee star Paul Hogan is accusing his once-trusted tax adviser of absconding with $34 million he helped Hogan hide offshore in Switzerland.
   
• Clariden Bank, part of Credit Suisse, sought highly-secretive structures and pushed offshore service providers to bypass anti-money laundering checks for its wealthy clients.
   
• Baron Elie de Rothschild, the late guardian of the French banking dynasty, built an elaborate offshore empire in the Cook Islands involving at least 20 trusts and 10 holding companies, while managing to keep all assets and beneficiaries secret. One of the entities was named, appropriately, Anon Trust.
   
• Two members of India’s Parliament, the world’s largest producer of cut roses and other major business owners are among hundreds from the subcontinent revealed to have links to the offshore world, prompting a government investigation.
   
• Shares of an offshore company were held in trust for the daughters of one of Africa’s most popular pastors, televangelist Rev. Chris Oyakhilome.
   
• Dutch banking giants ING and ABN Amro helped set up offshore companies in faraway island states for their clients.
   
• Billionaires with ties to former dictator Suharto, two sons of former president B. J. Habibie and nine of the Indonesia’s richest 11 families, appear in the secret records of offshore trust and company owners. 
   
• Fabio Ghioni, the former head of information security at Telecom Italia who was later convicted of hacking the data of 4,000 people, had an offshore company called Constant Surge Investments Limited. Internal documents reveal he was advised by the Singapore branch of Deutsche Bank to do business with Portcullis TrustNet. When interviewed by L’Espresso, he denied being the beneficial owner of CSIL: “I don’t know anything of this. I don’t even know where the Virgin Islands  are located.”
   
• Zurich-based law firm Lenz & Staehlin has aided some of Europe’s richest families park their wealth offshore. “People don’t set up this kind of structure out of altruism, but to gain a profit,” says Christian Wanner, one of Switzerland’s leading authorities on tax collection.
   
• Scandal-buffeted Pakistani politician Moonis Elahi, whose father Chaudhry Pervez Elahi has just stepped down as deputy prime minister, owned a secret company in the British Virgin Islands. The company’s existence wasn’t unearthed during a recent government probe into Moonis Elahi involving illegal payments in an alleged land scam. 
   
• Top Malaysian politicians and their families, including former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s son Mirzan and current cabinet minister Raja Nong Chik Zainal Abidin, are among prominent Malaysians with secretive offshore companies housed in Singapore and the British Virgin Islands. 
   
• “You’re certainly going to be using a nominee director if you’re doing anything bad,” says university professor Jason Sharman. The CIA, Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, the company which shipped arms to Rwanda during the 1994 genocide, the former Kazakhstan banking head Mukhtar Ablyazov, and alleged spy Paul William Hampel are some of the clients who have used nominee directors and offshore entities to conceal their activities and identities.
   
• Among the 4,000 U.S. individuals listed in the records, at least 30 are American citizens accused in lawsuits or criminal cases of fraud, money laundering or other serious financial misconduct, an analysis by the Washington Post and ICIJ found. Offshore trusts and companies set up in the South Pacific and Caribbean are the common factor in several prominent financial scandals in the U.S.
   
• Offshore companies are ridiculously easy to establish and effective at concealing your identity. Watch our animated video explaining the process. 

 

• Two major French banks, BNP Paribas and Crédit Agricole, oversaw the creation of a large number of totally opaque offshore companies in the British Virgin Islands, Samoa and Singapore from the late 1990s until the end of the 2000s for clients in search of secrecy and lower tax rates.
   
• We take an in-depth look at the offshore service provider Portcullis TrustNet. The firm is used by many of the world’s major banks, such as UBS, Deutsche Bank and Credit Suisse subsidiary Clariden, and by the world’s biggest auditing firms, such as PricewaterhouseCoopers, Deloitte and KPMG, to provide secrecy for their wealthy clients — mostly from China, Taiwan, Singapore and other East and Southeast Asian nations – and was implicated in New Zealand’s “winebox affair” scandal of the decade.
   
• Gunter Sachs, the late millionaire playboy, businessman and former husband of Bridgette Bardot is revealed to have had an intricate offshore scheme to manage his vast fortune, a scheme that remained inscrutable to the fiscal authorities until the end.
   
• Two Americans and one South African are revealed to have reaped $2.5 million dollars from the aborted sales of surplus military helicopters to President Lissouba during the 1997 civil war in the Republic of Congo.
   
• François Hollande’s treasurer during the 2012 presidential campaign, businessman Jean-Jacques Augier, is revealed to have investments in the Cayman Islands.

 

• Germany’s largest financial institution, Deutsche Bank, helped its customers maintain more than 300 secretive offshore companies and trusts through its Singapore branch.
•  
• New light is shed on a half-billion-dollar Ponzi scheme  in Venezuela that shuffled investor money among a maze of offshore companies, hedge funds and bank accounts stretching from the Cayman Islands to Switzerland and Panama, smoothing the way by funneling bribes to officials in Venezuela.
   
• Commonwealth Trust Limited, a BVI-based firm, is revealed to have set up companies involved in the Magnitsky affair, a case that’s strained U.S.-Russian relations and blocked American adoptions of Russian orphans

 

• One of Mongolia’s most senior politicians says he is considering resigning from office after being confronted with evidence that he has an offshore company and a secret Swiss bank account.
   
• Newly uncovered documents link Maria Imelda Marcos Manotoc, the eldest child of the late Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos and now a senior political figure in her own right, to two secretive offshore trusts and an offshore company. The Philippines’ Presidential Commission on Good Government is eager to find out if the entities might contain some of the estimated $5 billion that her father allegedly amassed through corruption.
   
• A prominent Canadian lawyer, husband to a Liberal senator, moved CA$1.7 million (US$1.1 million) to secretive financial havens while he was locked in battle with the Canada Revenue Agency over his taxes, according to documents in a massive leak of offshore financial data.
   
• A corporate mogul whose business empire has won building contracts worth billions of dollars amid Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev’s massive construction spree is tied to the president’s family through secretive offshore companies.
   
• The prominent Thais listed in secret documents as owners of offshore holdings includes the former wife of ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, a sitting senator, a former high-ranking defense ministry official, Forbes-listed tycoons, and a former government minister whose assets in the United States are frozen because of her alleged links to Zimbabwean dictator Robert Mugabe.  
   
• Greek citizens who own or direct offshore companies in the British Virgin Islands and other tax havens rarely declare them to Greek tax officials, a review of more than 100 companies shows. Just four out of 107 offshore companies investigated by ICIJ are registered with tax authorities as the law usually requires, particularly when the firms hold assets or conduct business in Greece. Officials apparently have no record of the other 103 firms — or whether the owners declared any assets held by these entities or paid taxes on them.
• A list containing examples of some of the most high-profile names uncovered in this investigation, along with records of their offshore companies. Those named come in the form of politicians, businessmen, army generals, tycoons, relatives of dictators, and are scattered across 29 different countries.
• Finally, for those interested in how ICIJ managed to tackle records cache, the data manager of the project, Duncan Campbell, writes an in-depth explanation of how our journalists were able make sense of the 260 gigabytes of information obtained. Four large databases, half a million text, PDF, spreadsheet, image and web files were dissected to reveal over 130,000 records on the people and agents who run, own, benefit from or hide behind offshore companies. 

 

We hope you enjoy these stories; there will be more to follow daily for the next couple of weeks.

The Fed Faces Wipeout! Will they prolong the endgame?

(Bernanke looks just a tad bit worried…as he should be!)

04/06/2013

Two days ago, a former Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury told King World News (KWN) that the Federal Reserve and other central planners are facing a wipeout.  Former Assistant of the US Treasury, Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, also cautioned KWN that the Fed is trying to do all they can to prolong the coming financial destruction.  Below is some of what Dr. Roberts had to say.

Eric King:  “Now that central planners have made it known they will steal bank deposits when countries are in trouble, does that help relieve QE going forward to some extent?  Or is this just another lie they are trying to sell to people right now?”

Dr. Roberts:  “It doesn’t relieve it, but it’s an alternative when they can’t do QE. When the dollar starts declining or collapses, and they keep printing it will drive it down even faster. So when the dollar really starts plunging they have to give up QE.

“So the fallback position when they can’t print money is to grab bank deposits. And not just bank deposits but also pensions. They will grab both.”

Eric King:  “The desperate actions we are seeing on the part of governments and central planners right now, what does that tell you about how close we are to the end game?”

Dr. Roberts:  “The whole point is if the bond market collapses, interest rates explode.  When interest rates explode, stocks collapse. That has always been the tradition. So I think they (the Fed and central planners) are facing a wipeout, and they are doing what they can to prolong this.

That is where they are, they are running out of time and means. I think they feel they are close to the end game. They are trying to stave it off. Look, if you can pass the sinking ship to the next watch, if Bernanke can get out of there before it happens, that’s what they will do.

And we don’t know what the Fed is telling the Congress. They may be telling them it’s better to get rid of social security in order to save the budget. I mean you don’t know what they are saying. But in the meantime they don’t want the dollar to go before they can achieve a deal.  If people get hopeful, sometimes they get unrealistic (laughter ensues).”

Eric King:  “If a friend comes to you and he has millions or tens of millions of dollars in the bank, and he asks you, ‘What do I do here Dr. Roberts?’ What do you say to a guy like that?”

Dr. Roberts:  “I would say if he’s got millions or tens of millions, he’s probably got the capability of getting it out of the country.  Move it to Hong Kong. Find some investment firm in Hong Kong.

There are some strong, smaller or regional type banks in Hong Kong that have no derivatives. You could just deposit the money there. You are then stuck with all of the reporting requirements, but at least your currency and wealth is out of the country.

Right now of course the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the US dollar, but I think when the dollar starts sliding they will quickly remove that peg. The Chinese will make them do that. So there are alternatives, and if you are not too scared about what they are doing to gold and silver, it’s cheap now compared to where it was.”

How to deal with the Sheriff of The Court ~ Micheal Tellinger, UBUNTU

 

04/22/2013

From the Desk of Michael Tellinger and the Ubuntu Party in co-operation with Ubuntu USA:

 

How to deal with the Sheriff of The Court Protect your property – know your rights – stand your ground Every day millions of people around the world are deprived of their property when a Sheriff of the court, or a Court Bailiff, or other, arrives at their home and begins to remove or attach their property – in most cases unexpectedly and also unlawfully.

But because our laws were not written to benefit people, but to rather uphold the rights of the corporations, the average person does not know what to say or what their rights are to prevent their property from being taken against their will.

The business of a Sheriff is not an ordinary private business or private enterprise. While they do operate as a business, they are heavily regulated and tightly governed by statute law – this works in favor of the people if they know what to say.

This document outlines what has come to our attention as the legal and lawful rights of all people, and what seems to be legal loophole in the system for our benefit – to pay the sheriff with a lawful PROMISSORY Note, drawn up by you and endorsed by you – when he/she arrives on your doorstep unexpectedly.

Such situations are highly stressful and people panic and go into shock and forget their own rights or how to respond. So please pay careful attention and memorize this information – it has to come naturally to you so that you do not panic and stumble on your words when facing a sheriff.
There is nothing to be afraid of – just having the courage to know your rights and how to stand your ground. Knowledge is power – use it for your own benefit.

If this does not make sense to you, then you need to understand two things:
1.    You need to understand how the money and banking system works outside the scope of this document; and
2.    A Promissory Note is defined as “incorporeal property” and lawful means of payment in most countries of the world; and
3.    Accept that to a certain degree at least, this is a legal loophole that we can use to the benefit of the people against the draconian and unlawful activities of the banks and government.

In South Africa, the settlement of a debt using ‘incorporeal property’ is, prescribed among other places, in the High Court Rules of South Africa as follows: (Click here to see use of promissory notes in the United States and Internationally)

Rule 45 (8) If incorporeal property, whether movable or immovable, is available forattachment, it may be attached without the necessity of a prior application to courtin the manner hereinafter provided:

(a)    Where the property or right to be attached is a lease or a bill of exchange, promissory note, bond or other security for the payment of money, the attachment shall be complete only when-

(i) notice has been given by the sheriff to the lessor and lessee,mortgagor and mortgagee or person liable on the bill of exchange or promissory note or security as the case may be, and
(ii) the sheriff shall have taken possession of the writing (if any) evidencing the lease, or of the bill of exchange or promissory note, bond or other security as the case may be, and

We have it on record from a hearing in the South Gauteng High Court, in the matter between STD Bank vs Tellinger, that the banks accept payment in Bills of Exchange AND Promissory Notes. The attached promissory note is compiled from its relevant definitions in the South African Bills of Exchange Act – see attachment.

NOTICE: This form of payment should only be used for banks – not to pay other people or small companies. They do not know what to do with such a form of payment – banks do. It is therefore our opinion that you can use a Promissory Note, drawn up by you, to pay the Sheriff because it is a payment is to the Bank. You should not use this method for the settlement of non-bank debts.

The Sheriff has his instructions and must follow strict legal guidelines. He is not a legal expert especially on the issue of promissory notes and Bills of Exchange – therefore it is not his place to enter into an argument with you about the merits of the form of payment. You have to stand your ground on this point. If the Sheriff does not accept your payment, then he must complete a Return of Service sheet to return to the bank’s attorneys and furnish you with you a copy.

Here is the sequence of events that the Ubuntu Party recommends. You have been conditioned to be terrified of a Sheriff or other persons of authority. Please study this and try to feel comfortable with all this information so that it is easy to remember what to do. Do not panic – do not be afraid.

Have the following handy:
·    A piece of paper and a pen,
·    A small black book that you can purchase from any stationary store,
·    Print out the attached promissory note with your details and serial number on it – have a few ready in your home in a place that you can find easily .
·    If you are able (not critical) record or film the entire conversation with a camera, cell phone or recording device.

Sequence of events:

1)    The Sheriff arrives and will most likely introduce himself as being “from the Sheriff’s office.” This is not good enough.

2)    Ask him/her for ID – do not let them onto the property without ID that states he/she is a Sheriff of the Court. Best is to stop them at the gate or door. Copy all relevant details down onto the piece of paper. Don’t rush. Take your time and be thorough.

3)    Demand a copy of the “writ of attachment” or “execution” or “valuation” – take a good look at it and make sure it is what he says it is. Again, take your time. Look for anything out of the ordinary (incorrect dates, pages not signed, etc.)

4)    Look for the total amount written on his documents – but don’t comment or mention anything at this stage.

5)    Say the following: I am willing and able to dispense with payment immediately, please wait here while I get it.

6)    Fetch your blank Promissory Note (attached) and “black book” to write the details of the NOTE in.

7)    Ask the Sheriff for the “all total”.  Say to him: “What is the ‘all total – or full and final settlement to dispose of this matter?”

8)    The “all total” is the full amount including costs; interest; fees; sheriff’s costs; attorney costs, and any other fees that may have been approved by the tax master.

9)    The sheriff will most likely make a call to the lawyers for the “all total.”

10)    Get the total amount from the Sheriff and fill in the Promissory Note.

11)    If sheriff asks what you are doing, say, “I am tendering payment, please be patient.”

12)    If he continues to ask what you are tendering, say: “I am settling this with a Promissory Note – it’s something like a check, but a Promissory Note is guaranteed because it is a liquid negotiable instrument. Kindly check High Court Rule 48 (8) (a) under ‘incorporeal property’ for confirmation.

13)    Do not be scared to sound like a robot or if you sound funny reading it out loud. The performance of a Sheriff is robotic in itself, so do not worry about how you sound.

14)    In your “black book,” fill in the details of your Promissory Note, the same way that you would fill in a check stub for your records. Date – Amount – To whom – Serial number of your promissory note.

15)    Then you sign below the information and hand the book to the sheriff to sign – do this rapidly, saying, “Please just sign here,” and hand him the pen. Urge him to sign.

16)    Hand him the Promissory Note only after he has signed the black book.

17)    If he signs the book, the matter is closed and he has accepted your payment. He now has to file a Return of Service stating that he received payment of ……….. Rand/Dollars/etc – and he has to leave your premises.

18)    Demand a copy of the Sheriff’s Return of Service document, that clearly shows that a payment of …xxx…rand/dollars was received from you.

19)    The bank has three days to challenge or refuse your payment by means of a special petition. If they do not petition within 3 days the matter is settled. The Sheriff cannot come back with the same summons.

20)    The bank will have to start a whole new legal action against you with a new summons.

21)    If he refuses to sign and obstructs the process, repeat to him that you are attempting to settle the full amount or the “all total” and that he is obstructing you to do so. Say, “I hereby state for the record that I am attempting to settle the all total with a lawful payment via my Promissory Note and you are obstructing me and preventing me from doing so.”

22)    Continue: “The payment is made in terms of the Bills of Exchange Act 34 of 1964 as amended by Act 56 of 2000;  and it is also a settlement in full as specified in terms of High Court Rule 45(8)(a).”

23)    If sheriff continues to be difficult not understanding what you are doing and wanting to proceed with his normal routine of attachment, tell him the following.

24)    “I have tendered your full payment of  ..xxx… rand/dollars and you have refused acceptance without qualification. I demand that you endorse on your Return of Service that you have refused to accept a lawful payment in the amount of ..xxx.. Rand/dollars, and rejected without qualification my payment.

25)    The sheriff is not entitled to refuse a payment because he is an agent – make him aware of it. In other words, explain to him that he is an agent operating as an intermediary and he is bound by the rules of the Court and the rules pertaining to Sheriffs.

26)    He must, as an agent, receive a lawful form of payment. Further explain him that he is not acting according to his mandate.

27)    Demand a copy of the Sheriff’s Return of Service.

28)    The Sheriff may NOT proceed with any attachments on your property OR even writing up any items, because:
a)    You have tendered lawful payment  -AND –
b)    He has issued you with a Return of Service – OR –
c)    He has refused payment and needs to file a Return of Service to the bank that states what transpired.

29)    If the Sheriff insists on entering and attaching your property, ask him to leave or you will call the police.

30)    NOTE: Sheriffs have been widely known to call “their own police” who are usually police acting outside their mandate, paid for by the Sheriff. Should this occur, you must call the police yourself. It is also highly recommended that you have friends on speed dial who can show up to support you and act as witnesses. You must get names and ID numbers of all police who you encounter.

31)    Remember that this is a CIVIL matter between the Bank and you – it is NOT a CRIMINAL matter – so the police may not assist the Sheriff in entering your home.

32)    The Police are there to maintain the PEACE – so if the Sheriff wants to enter your property by force, the police should protect you.

33)    The Sheriff needs to present different documents that rely on proof of a criminal offense to get assistance from the police. Stand your ground on this issue.

34)    Inform him that he has exceeded his mandate and he is now trespassing.

35)    Ask the police to arrest the Sheriff for unlawful entry and trespassing, after you have warned him, and ask them to charge him with intent to remove your property without cause.

36)    An additional charge may be: an attempt to extort money from you without legal invoice. This is the “all total” that the sheriff gave you earlier, without an official invoice. Nobody can demand payment without an invoice.

37)    There may also be a possible case of fraud against the Sheriff and the lawyers and the bank, who gave him the “all total.” Because the total will most likely not be accurate – the common practice by the lawyers is to inflate these amounts without adding it up accurately.  Put simply, if they feel you are ready to pay, the lawyers may inflate the amount, in belief that you are willing to settle. This is another reason why you should record the conversation.

38)    The Sheriff may be guilty of refusing lawful payment; extorting money without an invoice and inflating the amount payable.

See generic Promissory Note below. Please adapt it with your details – create your own sequence of serial numbers for each consecutive note; print out a few blank notes; and keep them in a safe place with easy access. This Promissory Note is suitable for South Africa and other countries where the existing money no longer states “I promise to pay the bearer.”

We suggest that in the UK and other countries, where it still states as such, the promissory note may not need the Terms & Conditions of payment, but be a pure “promissory note”.  The state will claim that their notes are underwritten by the treasury and therefore have value – which is not really true. Because the state depends on the goodwill of the people to have “trust” in the state currency, which is an empty promise to pay, since the currency is not supported by any precious metals.

The people, on the other hand, may claim that their Promissory Notes are underwritten by the One People’s Public Trust 1776, of which every living breathing human being is automatically a beneficiary and therefore can use the TRUST to underwrite their own promissory notes. The OPPT was established on 10 September 2012, by its own Declaration and Order, lodged with UCC office in Washington, DC, under filing number 2012096074 and is a bona fide TRUST of the people of the planet.

Neil Keenan Told To Cease and Desist From Representing The Global Collateral Accounts

Soekanto to Keenan: Cease and Desist I was sent copies of this document by someone who wishes to remain anonymous. I immediately ran them up the tree for verification and have been told by high up sources that the seal/stamps and notary are legitimate. Several months ago I was informed that Neil Keenan is not in any way associated with the Global Accounts and Dr. Seno Edy Soekanto as he has led people to believe. This information came from very high up sources. Since then I have been given verification of this from several other sources. I left the information alone and did not bring it forward until today. After reading this document I have realized that it’s important for people to know this information so that they understand.

Bashar Predicts One Peoples I-UV Exchange in 2002

On Monday and Tuesday’s 5D Media Network OP shows, Brian Kelly read the transcript from a prediction Bashar made back in 2002 about some form of “universal exchange” being launched in the future Now, anyone who’s been following the work of the One People is aware that the I-UV exchange is currently being prepared for launch sometime in the near future. Which may also be tied in with a SwissIndo offer to replace the current monetary system, one which is based on slavery for the purposes of harvesting human energy and robbing humanity of it’s value as Creator BE-ings.

I wanted to post the video here, but all attempts to find Bashar’s video failed. Obviously this one got under Team Dark’s skin so much they scrambled to immediately remove it from YouTube, rendering it unavailable to the countless websites that posted it w/in 24hrs of the show. A pattern I’ve noticed as soon as I began listening to the OPPT shows, every time they exposed a “painful” truth Team Dark went into damage control by removing information, launching counter attacks or wreaking havoc to distract people from so-called “damaging information”. The Boston bombings synched up with UFO disclosure, the SwissIndo offer and calls for volunteers to join an international military to help peaceably enforce the new paradigm.

So after failed attempts to locate the Bashar video since they were ALL “private” I contacted Brian on Facebook, asked if he could post the transcript and within five minutes it was done…the following updated post is on his blog, along with my FB request for the transcript 

This all goes to show this really is “Just a ride” and we’re all simply playing out  an “organic” game of remembering who we are, in our Divine roles as Creator Be-ings! Much love and Aloha! ~A~}

Bashar on Future Economy Predicts U/V Ixchange

May 12, 2013

Thanks to Martin for the pointer to this Bashar video (only 3 minutes). If you’re not familiar with Bashar, I highly recommend his messages, they tend to be highly enlightening and much of the time incredibly relevant to what’s happening in the world. This is most definitely one of those occasions. He actually uses the phrase “Universal Exchange.” Enjoy!

 

UPDATE:I received this message today on Facebook:

Brian, can you PLS post the transcript?? Team Dark (TD) always reveals the truth behind the One Peoples work when they scramble to remove video’s like this, after being mentioned on both shows it was posted on numerous websites…only to be removed w/in 24hrs. Thanks TD, way to go!! Just like poker, you revealed your hand once again…lol!! Been watching this play out since Jan and you never fail to frown, wince and even drop your cards when profound truths are revealed by the OP hosts…hey TD love you guys, thanks for the tip off!! Brian and the 5D media team…you ROCK! TY!!

Ask and ye shall receive

“The idea of economies on your planet will be altered to a slightly and then more radically different form. At first your planet will seek way to create some form of Universal exchange that will work for all people in all countries. And then it will shift into another standing that economy needs to be based on the resources of the people themselves rather than on some artificial basis. And then as your planet’s technology begins to discover the idea of free energy and how to transform energy and matter then it will find it has abundantly everything that it needs and will not really require an economy as such anymore. People will then be allowed to do whatever they need to do that excites them for there will be the power and technology to create whatever it is you need at any given moment. Even though we understand that the program on your planet that you call Star Trek is a story, it does contain a lot of the intuition of the kinds of reality that you can generate on your planet. One of the reasons why these stories are created out of your consciousness and why they become so popular is because you sense that that is the general direction you are heading in.”

ALERT: All Loans Are Fraud

 

ALERT: All Loans Are Fraud

 

May 13, 2013

 

 

Thanks to Keri for the pointer. Check out her blog, “What in the world is going on?”

 

 

This article was put out by the Ubuntu liberation movement and provides further support and evidence of the fraudulent nature of all bank loans. Most who read this blog already know this. However, this list is good to share with those who may not yet be aware to the deceptive practices within the banking system. This is the kind of information “they” don’t want to get out. Please spread far and wide!

 

 

This post, written by Heather back in February, provides further evidence and support to this claim. ~Brian Kelly

FACTS ABOUT THE GLOBAL BANKING MACHINE

1) All the major banks in the world are owned and controlled by the banking families.

2) They control the entire process of the creation, the printing, and supply of money around the world.

 

3) The three biggest names in this cartel are the Rothschilds; Rockefellers and Morgans, and they ultimately own or control all the banks in the world, together with a small number of other powerful banking families, like Carnegie, Harriman, Schiff, and Warburg.

 

4) Collectively they have become known as the “banksters” by those who became aware of their devious activity.

 

5) All the major central banks of the world, including the Reserve Bank of South Africa, just like the Federal Reserve Bank in the USA, are privately owned corporations with complete control of the financial markets.

 

6) These banking families and central banks are a law unto themselves and do not have to answer to anyone. For example, section 33 of the South African Reserve Bank Act allows them to keep their actions secret.

 

7) The global financial system created around the supply of money is so convoluted and complex that only a few people truly understand it. This is always used as an excuse to exclude the involvement of ordinary people.

 

8) The deeply complex legal system is used in the same way to manipulate and support this structure, denying the ordinary person access to lawful justice.

 

9) Lawful justice cannot exist under the situation where the country is a corporation; the president appoints the judges, therefore the judges work for the corporation and have to uphold the wellbeing of the corporation – not the people. And the courts are mere enforcers of the banking policy.

 

10) Banks officially do not work with money. They work with Bills of Exchange, Negotiable Instruments and Promissory Notes.

 

11) The word ‘money’ does not even have a definition in the Bank Act of South Africa, neither is the word ‘payment’ defined.

 

12) All the major money of the world is ‘FIAT’ money – this basically means that it has no intrinsic value AND it is not supported by any precious metals like gold or silver, as it was a long time ago. FIAT money is created by banks, out of thin air, when you take out a “loan.” There is actually no real loan – nothing physical is exchanged – this is the equivalent of counterfeiting. South Africa’s money supply has quadrupled in the past decade, and yet this increase supply has not seen a parallel increase in gold, silver or other real commodity reserves.

 

13) This means that the paper/plastic money we use is completely worthless. They are just fancy pieces of paper with some fancy logos printed on them with no value at all. The ‘value’ is derived purely from the masses of people who have confidence in their currency and keep using it as a method of exchange.

 

14) For example, very few people know that a payment / commission / legal bribe is paid to the South African government every time a worn note or coin is returned to the SA Reserve bank. This payment is called seigniorage and allows our government to profit from the exploitation of the people by the paper/plastic money controlled by the Reserve Bank, and ultimately the Bank For International Settlements from whom our Reserve Bank receives their orders.

 

15) Yet it is illegal to destroy these worthless pieces of paper, and people who introduce alternative pieces of paper, or copy these pieces of paper are jailed for infringement of its copyright.

 

16) The only reason our money has any value, is because we give it value – our perception of value is the only value it has. If the people lose faith in their money, the money will collapse, because nothing supports it. In fact the word ‘credit’ comes from the Latin credere which means “to believe.” Evidence of this is found almost every time a central bank governor opens their mouth. You will hear the word “confidence” uttered over and over and over again because the prime directive of a central bank governor is to maintain confidence in banking at all costs. Erosion in confidence leads to the collapse of the system. This is precisely why they placed Nelson Mandela’s face on the new South African notes – to instil and renew confidence in our money and abuse the man’s commitment to freedom.

 

17) Banks create money out of “THIN AIR” by simply creating debits and credit on the accounting computer system. This is called the Matching Principle and is governed by the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). A “loan” is not a loan in the ordinary sense of the word, it is an instruction that you, the customer signs, in the process creating a promissory note, which you “submit” to the bank authority, giving the bank permission to issue one of their promissory notes in return. Their promissory note (which comes in the form of a computer generated bank statement) is designed to look like a loan. So, their promise back to you (in exchange for your promise to them) is the loan you are receiving. So, in essence, you instructed the bank to make money out of thin air. Because you are none the wiser, you agree to the exploitative terms and conditions outlined in the agreement which, of course, the courts will enforce in their favour.

 

18) Banks do not have money of their own to lend you as most people believe. No money existed in the system before the so called “loan” was granted to you.

 

19) Banks create money on the signatures of their clients and the so-called contracts and loans they make the customer sign. These contracts are sold in a process called securitisation to third parties, who in turn sell it on the global stock markets. This is a highly secretive and well guarded technique in which they profiteer and create undue enrichment. Then they bundle such loans and sell them back to the people via pensions funds and insurance policies. Are you confused yet? You should be – many lawyers and most judges do not understand this and this is why we had to study this ourselves to be able to defend ourselves in the courts against those lawyers who defend the banksters and understand it well. The people have to know.

 

20) By selling your signature or ‘promissory note’ or mortgage bond contract, they lose all legal rights to any property that they financed. In legal terms this is called losing ‘locus standi’.

 

21) When the bank securitises a loan, they get paid the full capital amount of the loan, plus interest, up front. This means that your loan has actually been pre-settled by a third party who is insured in case you default, while you have no idea that this is going on behind the scenes.

 

22) The banks break contract law by claiming to lend what they do not possess – money. They only create money, in most cases cyber-money, after you signed all the documents and they sold your promissory note to the third party who then on-sells it, sometimes many times, to other parties by trading it on the global stock markets. This is why securitisation is a ponzi / pyramid scheme that everyone must become aware of. It is also known as “shadow banking” which is easy to research online.

 

23) They do not disclose any of this to their customers, keeping us in the dark. You believed that they actually loaned real money. This is a lie. They never loaned you anything of any value and therefore there was never “equal consideration” where both you and the bank stands to lose something. This flies in the face of basic contract law, never mind common morality among people. But then banks are not people – they are legal fiction corporations.

 

24) You created all the value with your own mind and it was your signature that caused the release of money from the third party buyer, which the bank received on your behalf – except they never informed you of that, did they?

 

25) The banks act as intermediaries, like estate agents, because they do not lend us THEIR money. Since they do not lend us anything, but only obtain it on the strength of our signatures, from a third party, any interest they charge is pure extortion and fraud. Disclosure must take place for a valid agreement to occur.

 

26) The money in South Africa is printed by the South African Mint – also a private company that simply profiteers on the hard work of our people. However, recently this has been outsourced to Sweden which was a disaster, causing huge embarrassment for the Reserve Bank after several billion Rands worth of notes were printed incorrectly with the wrong dimensions and had to be destroyed.

 

27) The Reserve Bank, which is a private company, is in charge of printed money, which it sells or loans it to the banks at a fraction of the face value of the bank notes.

 

28) When the banks return the used bank notes to the Reserve Bank, they get paid almost the entire full face value of those bank notes, creating enrichment out of thin air for themselves, by creating money out of thin air from shuffling paper.

 

29) Banks practice what is called “Fractional Reserve Banking”. This means that they only have to retain a small percentage of any deposit and can lend out the rest many times over to the public, creating a spiral of debt on money that does not even exist.

 

30) For example: For every $100 you deposit, the bank lends out about $900 of imaginary fictitious money to their clients. The real fraud is that they charge compounded interest on this non-existent money. This is blatant fraud and anyone else would be jailed for a long time for doing this.

 

31) Interest is charged up front. Interest is considered “real money” by the bank, and so they can make more loans, out of thin air, against that interest, that did not exist in the first place.

 

32) As it stands today, there is not enough money in the world to pay off all the debt in the world, because of interest. This is exactly the situation the banksters wanted to create. A situation that gives them complete control over property and other assets that can be repossessed by the banks only to re-sell it to another naive person who will most likely end up in the same debt situation.

 

33) All this activity is continually supported by the legal system and the ignorant judges who just perpetuate the fraud in the face of clear evidence.

 

34) In some countries, hard working people are jailed for not being able to repay their debt. This a blatant crime against humanity for which the bankers should be jailed and the judges should be answerable to the people they serve. But then, they don’t serve the people, they serve the corporation that employs them – THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA and other corporations that masquerade as countries.

35) The printed notes we call money are really instruments of debt and should be illegal. Money as we know it today can only be issued as debt. In fact, about 40% of the debt of the USA is fictitious / counterfeit debt, owed to the Federal Reserve Bank who initially created it out of nothing and then charged interest on that debt. All the income tax collected in the US is used to pay off just the interest portion of the debt to the Federal Reserve Bank owners.

This is just a small taste of the convoluted web of deception that has been created to keep us ignorant and completely enslaved to the global control of the banksters.
There is no reason why we, the people, cannot create our own new form of money as an alternative to the banks’ tools of enslavement and use this new money as an interim tool to stabilize the economic crisis. A lawful kind of money that serves the people.
