Do you change your oil every 3,000 miles? The majority of drivers on the road have been bombarded by advertising that recommends changing their car's oil every 3,000 miles, but the truth is that interval is no longer really necessary.
Yes, engine oil does get dirty, and when that happens, it can clog engine parts, but if you’re driving a car that’s less than five years old, you’re probably wasting money — and oil — if you change it as frequently as that.

Almost 15 million Californians change their motor oil every 3,000 miles or more often, using more than 150 million gallons of motor oil each year – enough oil to fill 255 Olympic-sized swimming pools, according to a recent study by CalRecycle.

Across the country, reprocessors treat about 1.1 billion gallons of used oil yearly according to the American Petroleum Institute.

Not trying to 'defend' the Gov't actions, but there COULD be 'legitimate' reasons for the barb wire. Crowd control can always be a potential problem; look at the 'riots' during X-mas sales, this last year. Look at what happens when Food and water are brought in, after a natural disaster; IF the people would calmly stand in line, wait ther turn, etc. there would be enough for everyone, but instead they 'mob' the trucks, and 'loot' the food.

You get a LOT of people in one place, there is always the potential for 'lynch mob' kind of mentality, rumors, etc. In the event of SHTF, there WILL be 'looting', and while martial law will give authorities the ability to shoot looters, that is mainly done to re-establish control. Undoubtedly, SOME 'bad guys will be 'rounded up', rather than shot, and they will need some place to put them. So, may be need to seperate those they are trying to 'serve and protect', from predators, (2 legged variety). In short, there COULD be reasons for the Barbed wire which are NOT 'nefarious'. Bottomline, if you don't want to end up in a "Shelter oflast resort", do what you need to do NOW, to give yourself an alternative. Bug in Bug out plans, Bugout bag, etc.

Or, accept the 'plans' that the Gov't is setting up. If you develop a GOOD plan, that allows for a variety of different contingencies, it won't really matter all that much what the Gov't is doing with these "FEMA Camps", cause you'll avoid getting anywhere near them! Jim

Hi Jim
I agree there reason for doing these drills MAY in fact be purely humanitarian. To teach kids to be good little subjects of the realm. And in an emrgency it may actually help those who didn't have enough forsite to help themselves.
However in looking at the government's track record and the overt intentions of this "president" why would anyone trust your family with them for any reason.
I agree again with you and warn all others have a "bug out plan" ready...food clothing, shelter commincation and defence. Don't be like those government dependants in New Orleans during Katrina or the Jews in Nazi Germany, be ready and trust no one. Your life and the life of your family will depend on being ready.

believe. For instance,as a general rule, where others see a conspiracy, I tned to 'see' human incompetence, and human nature. For instance, some government Beaurocrat yelling at some contractor, at a FEMA camp; "DOH, the barb wire is supposed to face OUT, not IN!!!"
Kind of like old "Politically incorrect" joke about the landscaping contracor yelling "Green side up! Lol Jim

Interview with Drake from David Wilcock:

UPDATE 2:59 PM -- INTERVIEW WITH TOP INSIDER ABOUT IMMINENT MASS ARRESTS

I am on the plane to this weekend's conference in Austin. You are about to hear a stunning interview with Drake, an insider specifically asked by the Pentagon "good guys" to come forward and explain what is going to be done.

I was blown away by the information he was giving. If you didn't already believe this was really going to happen, this may very well change your mind.

I ran Drake through an extensive validation process with one of my top insiders and he passed with flying colors. He is the real deal.

Yes, you have it right, M.S., and while our government is doing everything they possibly can to trash our Constitution and allow the UN to strip away gun ownership rights of Americans, we should all wake up to the fact that the Department of Homeland inSecurity has put in a standing order for 450 million rounds of ammo. Hmmm. now why would they need all this ammo? To "protect" us when we no longer have any guns to protect ourselves?

Not surprisingly, the Selective Service System director has rejected sheriff Joe Arpaio's request to see Barry's original registration card. Joe is now attempting to follow up with a request to allow someone from his posse to travel to SSS headquarters to view the registration. Previously the SSS had allowed two freedom of information requests concerning this record, so to turn down a request from a law enforcement agency is nothing but an attempt to keep a lid on the situation. In his rejection, the SSS director said that his office had no evidence that Barry's SSS registration is a forgery.

Isn’t it remarkable how a bureaucrat can stand up and claim he has no evidence of something when in fact he has just been handed that evidence?
“I don’t know nuthing, I haven’t seen nuthing, don’t blame me for what’s happening, go away, leave me alone, I’m just doing my job.”

It seems that 2012 onwards, the world is on the brink of Third World War. All sane and peace loving men would pray that it is averted. For, the horoscope of the times, points towards a global catastrophe in the making.

Russia and China are allies against the US-Nato geo-strategy (Iran and Pakistan are joining this alliance). China is rising economically, and Russia is resurgent strategically. After Iraq and Afghanistan, they have seen the US-Nato model of regime change in Libya and Syria by sponsoring local militants. In Russia, President Putin accused the US of instigating the opponents of United Russia; in China, it used India to ferment trouble in Xinjiang, Tibet etc. All this is unifying the alliance of Heartland powers Russia-China and Rimland state actors Iran-Pakistan into anti-US-Nato alliance. But the events are moving too fast! The Mayan Prophesy of 2012 as a ‘catastrophic year’ approaches. The US-Nato-India clash with Pakistan or US-Nato-Israel clash with Iran will lead by default or design to a multi-regional war.

EDIT: Just watch it to the end.

Yes, Aaron, while we have covered the same BC anomalies quite thoroughly here, the presentation shown to the media by Joe's group brings together many of the important points in a way that is awfully hard to ignore if the media was at all interested in getting to the truth of the matter. The fact that hardly anyone in mainstream media even made mention of the presentation, and those who did feature it only reported that it was all nonsense makes it very clear that the days when reporters reported big news events are long gone. This stuff should be all over the place, but the only major networks reporting on it are in foreign countries. Just think how things have changed over the years. Now we have to listen to Russian news to hear what's really happening here in America. How sad is that?

President Obama vs. Republican Candidates
RealClearPolitics - President Obama vs. Republican Candidates


Stop Vote Suppression!
Now that they control a majority of statehouses across the nation, Republicans are attempting a bold power grab to disenfranchise voters and repeat the Florida election debacle of 2000.
Right now, states with Republican governors or new GOP majorities are ramming through bills designed to make it harder for people to vote.

They'll stop at nothing to steal the Presidency.
We have to act now to stop these bills from becoming law.

Sorry but the presidency has already been stolen. Actually it was stolen by the banksters many years ago. Our elections are just an illusion to make the people believe that they are voting for the person of their choice. Look at the republican candidates, Romney, Santorum, Gingrich, they are for all practical purposes clones of Obama and hand picked by the banksters. Who don’t care who wins the presidency so long as they are able to control the president.

For decades now when people got feed up with government they were simply told vote for the other party. But what has this achieved? Has either party ever made any real difference in managing the economy, reducing taxes, keeping our companies and jobs from being exported overseas, or what about keeping us out of senseless undeclared wars? Maybe it is time to step back and realize that there has not been nor will there be any real change on these issues when both parties are working in lock step with each other.

It is all a big game to them, when Bush was in office Obama claimed the high cost of gas was harming the economy, and that we needed to bring our troops home.etc.etc. Now that he is in office we are told the high cost of gas is a good thing and he has placed roadblocks in the way of us developing our own oil and gas. He did nothing to stop our already out of control debt instead allowed it to increase exponentially. And our troops, well they are still scattered all over the world protecting the banksters poppy fields in Afghanistan and other worldly interests.

This is not the kind of hope and change that many people were hoping for however it is exactly what the banksters wanted and got.

Our voting system is a joke it is open to manipulation and outright fraud. In Iowa’s primary one district that was strongly for Ron Paul was not counted. Oh we’re sorry the truck carrying their ballots got lost. Except they didn’t use trucks to carry the ballots, they were phoned in. Oh well it doesn’t matter how they were lost their gone and we don’t know were they went, so just forget about it. What we need a totally open and transparent voting system. All voting should be done on paper ballots to eliminate “computer error” and to provide a reliable recount if needed and using manual counting systems open to all those that wish to watch the entire counting process from start to finish.

Even if it takes a few days to complete the count, that’s fine, so long as in the end everyone is satisfied that it is a true and accurate count.

To vote in an election you obviously need to prove you are of voting age, a citizen and live in the district your will be voting in. Also on election day being asked to identify yourself has that person is not an unrealistic request.

Think about it.
Yes, they piss down your ****ing back and tell you it's raining. Election fraud? They tell you your vote counts. It's your duty to vote. The majority rules. Who's majority? The election outcome has been determined. Not by you of course.Duh! They piss down your back and tell you it's raining. And that's all I got to say about that.
Think about it.

Smoking "Grass"?
German writer and Nobel Prize-winner Günter Grass has published a poem about Israeli-Iranian relations. He accuses Israel of endangering world peace - and has sparked a wave of criticism.

Grass wrote that Israel is claiming the right to a nuclear first strike with the aim of "eliminating the Iranian people."

A turning point came in 2006 when Grass published his autobiography and confessed to being a member of the SS, known for its ruthlessness during World War II, as a 17-year-old. He was heavily criticized and his moral integrity suffered a blow.

Called the iBrain, this simple-looking contraption is part of an experiment that aims to allow Dr. Hawking — long paralyzed by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig’s disease — to communicate by merely thinking.

“The iBrain can collect data in real time in a person’s own bed, or when they’re watching TV, or doing just about anything,” Dr. Low said.

“Dr. Low and his company have done some outstanding work in this field,” Dr. Hawking said in a statement. “I am participating in this project in the hope that I can offer insights and practical advice to NeuroVigil. I wish to assist in research, encourage investment in this area, and, most importantly, to offer some future hope to people diagnosed with A.L.S. and other neurodegenerative conditions.”

Much work remains, however, including the integration of Dr. Hawking’s brain waves with the computers and devices that allow him to communicate.

“Wouldn’t it be wonderful,” Dr. Low said, “to have a mind like Stephen Hawking’s be able to communicate even a little bit better?”

"American Stonehenge"



A message consisting of a set of ten guidelines or principles is engraved on the Georgia Guidestones in eight different languages, one language on each face of the four large upright stones. Moving clockwise around the structure from due north, these languages are: English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, and Russian.






"American Stonehenge."[1] The monument is 19 feet 3 inches (5.87 m) tall, made from six granite slabs weighing more than 240,000 pounds (110,000 kg) in all.[2] One slab stands in the center, with four arranged around it. A capstone lies on top of the five slabs, which are astronomically aligned. An additional stone tablet, which is set in the ground a short distance to the west of the structure, provides some notes on the history and purpose of the Guidestones.

Madscientist; Thats assuming the Gov't has any real desire to KNOW our 'innermost' thoughts. Frankly, having read many posts on this thread and others, there are a lot of peoples 'innermost' thoughts that I wish I DIDN'T know! LOL

I notice on this 'Stonehenge' project, the FIRST "Commandment", or whatever, is keep the population below 500 million; where have we heard THAT before? Why didn't they just write the words to John Lennon's "Imagine", and be done with it? About as Ideallistic, and as Impractical. Jim

"I was the walrus, but now I am John..., you'll just have to carry on. The dream is over.”
John Lennon - God - Lyrics - YouTube

Copious declassified documents--let alone the paperwork still classified--indicate that US Intel had an almost obsessive interest in John Lennon, and an animus against him. Sure, one could argue quite convincingly that the FBI and the CIA (whom the Bureau consistently informed with respect to Lennon's activities) had created a mountain out of a molehill.

Our controlled media obviously hates Ron Paul, or more likely is terrified of him, simply because they know they would not be able to control him. So they ignore him and tell us he can’t win even though he has shown that he can. Unfortunately there are many who will believe the lie that he is unelectable.

Here in Illinois during the primary he held a rally at a downstate college with 5000 people showing up. But not a word said about it in our local news. Meanwhile one of the other candidates (Grinrich?) held a rally at a small airport and about 100 supports showed up and that was a newsworthy item.

Just recently in California he held a couple rallies at colleges and drew 6000 and then 8000 people. Where was the main stream coverage of that? Do you think the coverage would have been slightly different if it had been Romney speaking?

Here are a few quotes from the depopulation elites:

"The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it." -Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood and funded by the Rockefeller family

"A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal." -Ted Turner, American media mogul

"U.S. policy toward the third world should be one of depopulation." -Henry Kissinger, political scientist and foreign policy advisor

"In order to save the planet it would be necessary to kill 350,000 people per day." -Jacques Cousteau, famous explorer and filmmaker

"We must speak more clearly about sexuality, contraception, about abortion, about values that control population, because the ecological crisis, in short, is the population crisis. Cut the population by 90% and there aren't enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage." -Mikhail Gorbachev, former Soviet statesman

"A reasonable estimate for an industrialized world society at the present North American material standard of living would be one billion people. This must be implemented within 30-50 years, two-thirds of the population must be cut." -Michael Coffman, September 9, 1994, during the UN Biodiversity Assessment on Sustainable Human Population

Iceland forgives mortgage debt of its population

The government of Iceland has forgiven the mortgage debt for much of its population. This nation chose a very different way of stopping the crisis from the rest of European countries. It decided to hear the requests of the population and to put politicians and bankers on the bench of the accused three years after their financial excesses would sank one of the most prosperous economies in 2008.
