Two British Men Sentenced to 4-Years in Jail For Encouraging a Riot on Facebook, Which Νever Ηappened..


A British court has sentenced two men to four years in prison for their failed attempts to use the social networking site Facebook to incite rioting during last August's unrest in the country.
Appeals by two men jailed have been rejected by the Court of Appeal.
Jordan Blackshaw, 20, and Perry Sutcliffe-Keenan, 22, were convicted of creating Facebook pages aimed at encouraging violent disorder in their hometowns in northwest England.
At a 27 September hearing, the pair's lawyers argued that their four year sentences were "manifestly excessive".
Both men pleaded guilty to creating the pages, which were entitled "Smash Down Northwich Town" and "Let's Have a Riot in Latchford."
Police say they infiltrated the Facebook page of Jordan Blackshaw last August and promptly arrested him after no one else joined him for the riot. Sutcliffe-Keenan's page was only up for a few hours before he took it down.
Lord Judge said:  "The imposition of severe sentences, intended to provide both punishment and deterrence, must follow."
      Jordan Blackshaw and Perry Sutcliffe-Keenan's four-year sentence
Nearly 3,000 people across the country have been arrested for participating in the riots, which left five people dead.  Almost half of those detained have been charged with riot-related offenses.
The violence started after the fatal police shooting of a man in London's economically depressed Tottenham neighborhood and quickly spread to other cities across Britain, terrorizing the country for four straight nights.

"ΤΑ ΝΕΑ" απέλυσαν τον σκιτσογράφο τους γιατί δεν μπόρεσαν να τον φιμώσουν !


Τα καθεστωτικά ΜΜΕ έδωσαν ακόμη ένα μάθημα λογοκρισίας. Απολύθηκε από την εφημερίδα τα "ΤΑ ΝΕΑ" ο σκιτσογράφος Τάσος Αναστασίου διότι με τα σκίτσα του ασκούσε κριτική στην κυβέρνηση και καυτηρίαζε τους παλιάτσους του πολιτικού θιάσου. Διαδώστε το!

Παράλληλα ειδοποιήθηκα μέσω τρίτων «να ρίξω νερό στο κρασί μου» – προφανώς για να εξασφαλίσω ένα ευνοϊκό για εμένα εργασιακό καθεστώς. Το δημοσιογραφικά απαράδεκτο καθεστώς πολιτικής λογοκρισίας και φίμωσής μου επιδεινώθηκε..

Scientists Discover The Oldest, Largest Body Of Water In Existence - In Space


Around a black hole 12 billion light years away, there's an almost unimaginable vapor cloud of water--enough to supply an entire planet's worth of water for every person on earth, 20,000 times over. 
Scientists have found the biggest and oldest reservoir of water ever--so large and so old, it’s almost impossible to describe.
The water is out in space, a place we used to think of as desolate and desert dry, but it's turning out to be pretty lush.
Researchers found a lake of water so large that it could provide each person on Earth an entire planet’s worth of water--20,000 times over. Yes, so much water out there in space that..

Ο Φ. Νίτσε για τους Έλληνες


Πιο επίκαιρος από ποτέ είναι ο Φρειδερίκος Νίτσε, αναμφισβήτητα ένας από τους σημαντικότερους Γερμανούς φιλοσόφους και συγκεκριμένα ένας από τους πρώτους «υπαρξιστές» φιλοσόφους.
Στο πρώτο του βιβλίο, με τίτλο «Η Γέννηση της Τραγωδίας» (1872) και συγκεκριμένα στο κεφάλαιο 15, ο Νίτσε κάνει μία ιδιαίτερα μνεία στο ελληνικό έθνος αποδεικνύοντας ότι ο Νίτσε είναι πολύ μπροστά από την εποχή του.

Η στάση ορισμένων κύκλων στην Ευρώπη απέναντί μας σε συνδυασμό με τη δυσπιστία που υπάρχει γύρω από τους Έλληνες έχει προβληματίσει κατά καιρούς και τους πιο αυστηρούς κριτές μας.

«Οι Έλληνες είναι τεμπέληδες και φοροφυγάδες» είναι μερικά μόνο από τα κοσμητικά σχόλια που ακούγονται διεθνώς τους τελευταίους μήνες κάνοντας πολλούς να αναρωτιούνται γιατί τόσο μένος γύρω από ένα λαό με μία λαμπρή ιστορία και ένα αξιοζήλευτο πολιτισμό.

Ο φιλόσοφος Φρειδερίκος Νίτσε δίνει μία ξεχωριστή απάντηση...

Διαβάστε το χαρακτηριστικό απόσπασμα από το βιβλίο:

«Αποδεδειγμένα σε κάθε περίοδο της εξέλιξής του ο δυτικοευρωπαϊκός πολιτισμός προσπάθησε να απελευθερώσει τον εαυτό του από τους Έλληνες. Η προσπάθεια αυτή είναι διαποτισμένη με βαθύτατη δυσαρέσκεια, διότι οτιδήποτε κι αν δημιουργούσαν, φαινομενικά πρωτότυπο και άξιο θαυμασμού, έχανε χρώμα και ζωή στη σύγκρισή του με το ελληνικό μοντέλο, συρρικνωνότανε, κατέληγε να μοιάζει με φθηνό αντίγραφο, με καρικατούρα.

Έτσι ξανά και ξανά μια οργή ποτισμένη με μίσος ξεσπάει εναντίον των Ελλήνων, εναντίον αυτού του μικρού και αλαζονικού έθνους, που είχε το νεύρο να ονομάσει βαρβαρικά ότι δεν είχε δημιουργηθεί στο έδαφός του…
Κανένας από τους επανεμφανιζόμενους εχθρούς τους δεν είχε την τύχη να ανακαλύψει το κώνειο, με το οποίο θα μπορούσαμε μια για πάντα να απαλλαγούμε απ’ αυτούς. Όλα τα δηλητήρια του φθόνου, της ύβρεως, του μίσους έχουν αποδειχθεί ανεπαρκή να διαταράξουν την υπέροχη ομορφιά τους.

Έτσι, οι άνθρωποι συνεχίζουν να νιώθουν ντροπή και φόβο απέναντι στους Έλληνες. Βέβαια, πού και πού, κάποιος εμφανίζεται που αναγνωρίζει ακέραιη την αλήθεια, την αλήθεια που διδάσκει ότι οι Έλληνες είναι οι ηνίοχοι κάθε επερχόμενου πολιτισμού και σχεδόν πάντα τόσο τα άρματα όσο και τα άλογα των επερχόμενων πολιτισμών είναι πολύ χαμηλής ποιότητας σε σχέση με τους ηνίοχους, οι οποίοι τελικά αθλούνται οδηγώντας το άρμα στην άβυσσο, την οποία αυτοί ξεπερνούν με αχίλλειο πήδημα......

"Attack on Noble Energy Rig Equals Attack on US"!

US Jewish leader Richard Stone sees dire consequences of an attack by Turkey on the Noble Energy rig drilling in Cypriot waters.
In an interview with Cypriot paper "Sunday Kathimerini", Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations chairman Richard Stone warns that an attack by Turkey on the Noble Energy Inc. (NYSE: NBL) rig that is drilling in Cypriot waters would be considered an attack on the US. Stone criticized Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, saying that he was distancing himself from the West and moving towards the East. Stone also said that Erdoğan used the Mavi Marmara incident as a pretext for a divorce from Israel.
Turkish daily "Sabah" reported today that Turkey has prepared a list of 174 Israelis involved in the takeover of the Mavi Marmara ship, including former IDF GOC South Major General Yoav Galant. The paper said that Turkey used Facebook to obtain information about past and present IDF soldiers.
Asked if he was worried about the Turkish threats against Israel and Cyprus, Stone said that..

The man who touched the breasts of 1,000 women before shaking Putin’s hand!
A man thought to support Vladimir Putin’s next year’s election campaign in a very interesting way. He touched 1,000 women breasts and then shook hand with the Russian Prime Minister.
Sam Nickel explained the unusual approach – he wanted to transmit the sensations experienced during the experiment to Vladimir Putin. He says that although it was nice to touch so many women, his quest wasn’t easy. Most women have rejected the proposal, only 20% of those approached agreeing to be touched and to be caught on camera.
Other women questioned him to understand the strange experiment. In addition, the young man had to walk eight hours a day in search of candidates.
Finally, after surpassing all these “difficulties”, he posted a video on the Internet illustrating his success.

Financial Mirror: «Η Κύπρος πρόκειται να γίνει το πλουσιότερο κράτος στην Ευρώπη»


H Κύπρος πρόκειται να γίνει το πλουσιότερο κράτος στην Ευρώπη μόλις αρχίσει να εκμεταλλεύεται τα κοιτάσματα φυσικού αερίου. Αυτό αναφέρει σε δημοσίευμά της η εφημερίδα Financial Mirror επικαλούμενη δηλώσεις του καθηγητή χημικής και βιομοριακής μηχανικής στο πανεπιστήμιο του Χιούστον Μιχάλη Οικονομίδη.
Τις δηλώσεις αυτές τις έκανε ο Μ. Οικονομίδης σε συνέδριο με θέμα «Maritime Cyprus 2011». Ο Έλληνας καθηγητής δήλωσε κατά τη διάρκεια του συνεδρίου ότι υπάρχουν σοβαρές ενδείξεις για τεράστια αποθέματα φυσικού αερίου μέσα στην Κυπριακή ΑΟΖ.
Ο ίδιος πρόσθεσε πως η δημιουργία ενός φορέα είναι απαραίτητη για το συντονισμό όλων εκείνων των ενεργειών για την οικονομική εκμετάλλευση των τεράστιων κοιτασμάτων του φυσικού αερίου.

Fear of Repression Spurs Scholars and Activists to Build Alternate Internets


'Computer networks proved their organizing power during the recent uprisings in the Middle East, in which Facebook pages amplified street protests that toppled dictators. But those same networks showed their weaknesses as well, such as when the Egyptian government walled off most of its citizens from the Internet in an attempt to silence protesters.
That has led scholars and activists increasingly to consider the Internet's wiring as a disputed political frontier.
For example, one weekend each month, a small group of computer programmers gathers at a residence here to build a homemade Internet—named Project Byzantium—that could go online if parts of the current global Internet becomes blocked by a repressive government.'

First comet found with ‘ocean water’


For the first time, researchers have detected ocean-like water in a comet—new evidence supporting the theory comets delivered a significant portion of Earth’s oceans.
“Life would not exist on Earth without liquid water, and so the questions of how and when the oceans got here is a fundamental one,” says Ted Bergin, an astronomy professor at the University of Michigan. “It’s a big puzzle and these new findings are an important piece.”
Bergin is a co-investigator on HiFi, the Heterodyne Instrument for the Infrared on the Hershel Space Observatory. With measurements from HiFi, the researchers found that the..

Is Alzheimer's Disease Transmissible?


Could Alzheimer's disease be infectious?
Possibly, in a similar way as prion diseases like mad cow disease, according to a new study in mice.
The new findings suggest that "some of the sporadic Alzheimer's cases may arise from an infectious process, which occurs with other neurological diseases such as mad cow and its human form, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease," said study researcher Claudio Soto, Ph.D., a neurology professor at The University of Texas Medical School at Houston, said in a statement. However, Sotos' study was just done in mice, and much more research is needed before the results can carry over into humans.
The study was published in the journal Molecular Psychiatry.
Researchers took brain tissue from a human with Alzheimer's disease and injected it into..

Steve Jobs: "There is no reason not to follow your heart."

Steven Paul "Steve" Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011)

"You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking.Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it."

"For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today? And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something."

"There is no reason not to follow your heart."

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking."

"Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."


"Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish!"

Germany, The Biggest Debt Transgressor of The 20th Century


You think Greece's current economic malaise is the worst ever experienced in Europe? Think again. Germany, economic historian Albrecht Ritschl argues in a SPIEGEL ONLINE interview, has been the worst debtor nation of the past century. He warns the country should take a more chaste approach in the euro crisis or it could face renewed demands for World War II reparations. 
Germany is coming across like a know-it-all in the debate over aid for Greece. Berlin is intransigent and is demanding obedience from Athens. Is this attitude justified? No, there is no basis for it.
A German economist bravely points out that Germany is in the position to be the creditor nation of Europe today because it never paid any of its debts in the 20th century, including the war reparations it owed countries like Greece.
During the 20th century, Germany was responsible for what were the biggest national bankruptcies in recent history. It is only thanks to the United States, which sacrificed vast amounts of money after both World War I and World War II, that Germany is financially stable today and holds the status of Europe's headmaster. That fact, unfortunately, often seems to be forgotten...

Click on image to enlarge

A new documentary about Mayan civilization will provide evidence of extraterrestrial contact with the ancient culture, according to a Mexican government official and the film's producer.
"Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and Beyond," currently in production, will claim the Mayans had contact with extraterrestrials, producer Raul Julia-Levy revealed to TheWrap.
"Mexico will release codices, artifacts and significant documents with evidence of Mayan and extraterrestrial contact, and all of their information will be corroborated by archaeologists," said Julia-Levy, son of actor Raul Julia.
In a release to TheWrap, Luis Augusto Garcia Rosado, the minister of tourism for the Mexican state of Campeche, said new evidence has emerged "of contact between the Mayans and extraterrestrials, supported by translations of certain codices, which the government..

Spectacular Sun Diving Comet - Oct 1, 2011


A comet discovered by amateur astronomers on Friday, Sept. 30th, disintegrated in spectacular fashion the very next day when it plunged into the sun. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory recorded the comet's last hours. The end was punctuated by an unexpected explosion:
There is no known mechanism for comets to trigger solar explosions. Before 2011 most solar physicists would have discounted the events of Oct. 1st as pure coincidence--and pure coincidence is still the most likely explanation.
Could a puny comet cause a magnetic instability that might propagate and blossom into a impressive CME?( Coronal Mass Ejection).The question is not so crazy as it once seemed to be.

Greece: The Truth Behind The News


Since 25/05/11 the people in Greece have swarmed the public squares indignant, enraged, but even more determined. United against a rotten system they resist all these things that condemn them to a life without hope. They revolt against whoever endangers their freedom and wellbeing.
They took life into their hands and they are fighting to defend the real democracy which was reborn in the squares and in the people's assemblies.
They are sending this message to the entire world: to drive out for good all the financial terrorists and whoever tyrannizes the people and undermines their future.
